Blank Checks Need to End

Dear Editor,
We need more people on our school board that will look out for all the families in the district and not just a few. Our board of education recently allowed our superintendent to spend thousands of dollars in an effort to kick a homeless family out of the district.
Sadly, neither Superintendent Mark Fredisdorf nor the Pleasantdale School Board of Education took the time to learn the laws concerning homeless families. Had they done so, they could have saved the hurt caused to this family as well as thousands of dollars wasted on this illegal endeavor.
It's time to stop the blank checks our school board gives to the superintendent. I support Doug Gilman, Steven Rochrohr and Gina Scaletta-Nelson because their idea of implementing a check and balance system would put the best interest of all district residents in mind.
Sincerely,
Julie Ryan
Burr Ridge
