*Education quote of the day—from Guilford Elementary School Spanish teacher Todd Warren regarding the Senate bill that would limit political activity by public school employees(emphasis mine):
“Teachers aren’t the most politically active people anyway, but right now there are a lot of people who are afraid for their jobs if they speak out on some of these issues. This could just make that worse.”
Really? Could have fooled me;
*Oops –Guilford County Board of Education member Chris Gillespie –who filled the District 1 seat after Carlvena Foster bolted for the Board of Commissioners —resigns after an anonymous caller gives him a hot tip —Gillespie actually lives in District 2. Now school officials have to review votes where the outcome would change without Gillespie’s vote;
*Locker Room’s Terry Stoops says that’s not cool; he also takes a closer look at Superintendent Mo Green’s requested $26 million budget hike:
…And don’t get me started on the fact that GCS employed 67 central office administrators and managers last year. Local dollars paid for 39 of them.
