| Update of the school board meeting of June 15, 2013 At the board meeting of June 6, 2013, two board members, Emmanuel Immoukhuede and Betty Owens, for the first time continued to emphasize a transparent-collaborative-all-inclusive-continuous improvement process that they have denied the full board, Dr. Leak, our parents, and our community from benefitting from. Now being the minority, they are now pretending to see how an all inclusive collaborative- informative-transparent-democratic-data-driven process that they have obstructed works both against them but also against our full board and community that they have refused to listen to or represent. Some of the old board's dysfunctions of muzzling the community, and unfair, unethical mistreatment of others have already been picked up by our children, new board members, the school district, and our community. This is unfortunate. No good can come to the world, our children, school board or our community through such debauchery. Show me a child who has gone wrong and I'll show you an adult who has gone wrong. This system of incompetence, dumbing down our full board, community, district employees, and our children, preventing district evaluation inherent in positively identifying strengths and challenges to be overcome, violating our freedoms and abilities to be better have already sown the inevitable seeds of a second harvest of disaster for our children, our community, and our future. Everything begin with communication. Today, truth has become a liar and they have denied both their colleagues on the full board, our superintendent, our school district employees, and our community a right to have a voice, to be real, to address a continuous improvement process, students, parents, and community needs at the democratic public forum of public participation. The loss to our children and community through such debauchery are immeasurable. Today, they have blocked the promotion of our transparent dream of a successful school district, continuous school improvement, and a student achievement centered process that should be the center of our being and an integral part of our vision and of every policy and decision. There is no greater challenge than preparing our children for a future of limitless possibilities. If you think that education is expensive, try ignorance. The devastation and collapse of a district vision, effectiveness, and meaningful self direction in our school district resulting from lack of process, collaboration, democracy, reason, pro-action, inclusiveness, monitoring, planning for the future, lack of goal setting, lack of conscience, and lack of meaningful self direction have resulted in a culture of hopelessness, faithlessness, incompetence, negligence, shutting down community, and other deficits in vision, mind, body, and soul. Rather than listening to everyone on the school board, instituting a process of collaboration, and a framework to meet monthly with the superintendent in following a regular process to review student achievement data to ensure continuous improvement, our full board, district employees, and our citizens have been plagued with dumbing down our full school board, school administration, community, bodies, minds and souls with the no-talk-rule. According to them, the no-talk rule for some, but not all, is illegal and it certainly does not maximize our opportunities. The significant problems that we face today cannot be solved at the same level of community suppression and backwards thinking we were at ten years ago. To move forward, we must develop a new level of thinking different from the thinking that got us in the mess we are in today with new visions, a new paradigm, and a new framework. Today, we can never allow this tragedy to happen to our children, our schools, our souls, and our community's future again. The conditions of success of lack in our school district are in direct and exact proportion to the conditions of success or lack in our minds. This incompetence has gotten on our last nerves. Today, as a school board, we may have two good nerves left but those still remaining on the school board with no vision, no change of heart, business as usual, and refuses to read, to challenge and change their paradigm, to come to know what their true roles and duties of a school board member entails, are standing on two of them. Readers are leaders. Our lessons are our blessings. Are we ready for our new thing in district turn-around, our new vision? Are we ready for our new opportunity, our new way forward in continuous school improvement? We do not see the world as it is. Rather, we see the world as we are. We must see our opportunity, our new paradigm, through positive examples from those who have demonstrated success and great accomplishments in this life, listening to effective leaders with records of accomplishment, with wisdom, hope and faith and through the roles of the board and superintendent in continuous improvement. Kindest regards, David E. Morgan, School Board Member Rich Township High School District 227 Olympia Fields, Illinois 60461 |
