Just got back from Thanksgiving dinner. My one cousin's wife is a real estate agent. I asked her how the market was in Livonia and asked her if the phrase "Livonia Schools" is still selling point and she simply said "NO". Why did I ask? I knew the answer. Home sales are down all over but apparently in Livonia we are down even further. It used to be that the phrase "Livonia Schools" was a definite huge selling point. This is no longer. Sorry for the bad news, but it's like we knew it all along. All thanks to the debacle of the Legacy Initiative. The entire bunch of incompetent administrators and Board of Ed members who are responsible for this should be rode out of town on a rail. They have ruined not only our, once fine, school system but the entire city as sell. I can't believe that the people in charge can allow this to go on. Why can they not stand up and say "WE MADE A MISTAKE, WE ARE SORRY, AND WE WILL FIX THIS! They do not know how powerful a statement that would be. They would probably get reelected if they just owned up to their mistake and moved toward a correction. What is wrong with you Board members! You have no spine! No honor! No integrity! Are you not the voice of the people? Who do you think elected you in the first place? Who's voice are you listening to? Why do you continue to let all of your collective egos override what you all must know to be the truth! The LEGACY INITIATIVE is a disaster! You have destroyed our fine community. You have wasted and squandered the taxpayers hard earned money AND done irreparable harm to our children! How can you, in good conscience, stand up at every Board meeting and look us in the eye after what you have done. Being wrong about the Legacy Initiative in the first place would have been just a mistake in judgment! OR a mistake in judgment by your less than competent administrative staff that dreamed up this idiotic scheme. But to let this go on and on and on and not admit to that mistake is an OUTRAGE! Why, so you can save face? Who are you saving face for? Certainly not the public! You are a disgusting bunch of very small people who haven't the guts to stand up and admit that you were wrong. You haven't got the guts or backbone to do what is so obviously necessary to correct this horrific mess that you have gotten this school district into! PLEASE EAT YOUR PRIDE! FIRE THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION AND START FROM SCRATCH WITH MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE, EXPERIENCED, AND CAPABLE PEOPLE THAT ARE HONEST, TRUSTWORTHY, AND ABOVE ALL, 'HAVE HONOR". They work for you, not the other way around. DO NOT LET THIS ADMINISTRATION CONTINUE TO LEAD YOU DOWN THIS PATH OF DISASTER! FIX THE MESS YOU HAVE CREATED. IT IS WITHIN YOUR POWER! DO IT FOR THE PEOPLE AND STUDENTS OF LIVONIA PUBLIC SCHOOLS ! DO IT TO RESTORE THE TRUST IN OUR ELECTED BOARD OF EDUCATION! |

Well said! Only if they will listen. You are so right that this is an ego issue. It's been brought up @ the Board meeting referencing the major discrepancies in the budgets, audits and student loss. The board continues to ignor the facts! The board still only think it's just a few people complaining. The biggest concern the current board should have are the silent members of the LPS community. These are the families who don't voice their opinions, they just make choices and leave. It's pretty apparent with the student loss for this school year.

I wonder if he will listen if 2 more new board members arrive in June? After all, he will hold the deciding vote. |
