The Futures of our students and community are being devastated and doomed by those who have served for eight or twelve years or more on school board 227
I am especially disappointed in any individual whether a politician or a private citizen who would endorse a member of a board of education who is the main architect of the failure of students. Futures of students are being devastated and doomed because of those who served for 8 and 12 years or more on the Board of Education of Rich Township High School District 227.
Even if a person is your friend, your better judgment comes into question when you endorse a person who is responsible for the failure of two thirds of the school population. I urge all taxpayers who are voters in that failed school system to do their due diligence and study the record of those who have served multiple times with declining test scores as their legacy. Wake up people, don't be bamboozled by attending lavish parties and being swayed by unscrupulous tactics.
Wake up voters in Olympia Fields, Matteson, Richton Park, Park Forest, Country Club Hills and a small portion of Tinley Park, University Park and Chicago Heights. Vote for people who will fight for quality education for your children: Bass, Morgan, Mnyofu and Woods.
