Hi "bendover", I will clarify my statement about the balanced budget. For 2 years prior to my arrival on the School committee, the Committee and schools over spent their budget to the tune on $3.2 Million. They apparently did not follow the Charter. The City covered the $3.2 Million and I vowed to pay the money back when I ran in 2008. The $3.2 Million was paid back over the course of my my first 2 years on the committee. During my time on the committee from 2008 to present, the School Committee has not over spent the budget, has had a balanced budget without the requirement for the city to cover additional school expenses.
I think I have done a good job and would like to be re-elected. If I am not re-elected, I would like to make sure those elected know that they are responsible for educating the children and that they make financially prudent and well informed decisions.
