The School Committee members appear to be highly educated but with little common sense. The consolidation process which includes improvements to Pilgrim & Vets has been mismanaged. Of course there has been few bidders on the needed improvements-these bids should have been advertised back in the fall & awarded in the winter. It's little wonder that contractors already had there summer schedules booked leaving little flexibility to meet the School Committees deadline of completion 10 days before the start of school in August; never mind the asbestos issue. 7 o'clock School Committee meetings? Regardless of the scheduling issues( it's comical that the SC couldn't find dates/times convenient for teachers/parents/other interested parties to meet in the early evening) this is further bad PR for a school committee that could use a little good PR. How can you send out layoff notices to 60+ teachers when the prior contract(which under teacher contract negotiations for dummies basically has the parties operating under the previous one) limits it to 20 layoffs. Consolidation/the teacher contract negotiations/improvements to Pilgrim & Vets/the fall schedules/ Personnel issues- all appear to reflect that the Warwick School Committee have not properly planned &/or exercised due diligence in ALL these matters.
