Report Inappropriate Comments

Dear Dave1107,

First, congratulations on your election. You worked incredibly hard and you earned the victory.

Thank you for your comment below where you point out that the same people that elect the City Council also elects the School Committee but doesn't that prove my point? And if we didn't have a School Committee wouldn't it save the taxpayers at least the salaries of the School Committee? We don't have a Police Committee, or a Fire Committee, or a Municipal Committee. Those budgets are controlled by the City Council. Why is Warwick's biggest budget, ($160,000,000) with the most amount of problems, (see above) controlled by an adversarial group hell bent on increasing their numbers (30%) while simultaneously decreasing the numbers of teachers (also 30%).

David, you can ask any taxpayer "Which is more important, a teacher, or an administrator? and they will always say a Teacher!"

So here is what I think you should do. Join forces with Karen Bachus, the only member who cares about Warwick students and actually help the students by putting their needs FIRST, or make a plan to disband the SC and let the City Council take over. Either way, the students will come out ahead. Shouldn't they come FIRST?

Happy Spring everyone.
