Prediction Time!

It was an early Christmas gift for the residents and taxpayers of District 107 back in December when board president Leandra Sedlack and previously ousted board member Rick Rigley decided not to run for another term on the board again.

With that in mind, we are going to make a prediction, because you know, that's what we do!

We predict that once a new board is seated, disinterested board member Beth Tegtmeier will resign her seat. Why you ask? Well, spend some time viewing the last few boe meetings online and see for yourself how interested she is in representing your interests on the school board.

She contributes next to nothing, spends most of the meeting texting and when asked a question, she waffles back and forth with comments like, "um...well...uh...in my heart of hearts...I just, uh...well...um, I really don't know enough about..." Beth also blindly approves agenda items that she hasn't seen or been present at previous meetings to hear the discussion. She just does whatever the others do, or what the puppet master tells her to do.

Thank God that the stronghold on the Pleasantdale school board is almost over. It will be a breath of fresh air to see some new, independent thinkers once again on the school board instead of the same ol' puppets. It will also be nice to see the focus shift from board policy, spankings and blind following to a board that actually questions, thinks and gets things done!

Really? WOW...it's amazing how anyone can say anything bad about Leandra Sedlack. She has dutifully served this district since 1994 for not only her children but all children of District 107. She has served as PTA President for 2 of those years and stepped up to be chairman of countless PTA committees. You can thank Leandra for the stained glass window in the Elementary School Library after she worked many years on the Soar With Books program with the Elementary students. She has been a Board of Education member for 8 years of which 6 of those years she has served as president. There is not a person in this district that has devoted more time and passion than Leandra. Your comments are misinformed, sad and despicable. It pains me to think that after so many years of working for the good of this district that people can be so mean.
