Can someone explain to me what possible interest the school committee has in the gay marriage issue? Evidently they feel that the education side of the ledger is pretty well set so they can devote time to resolutions like this. I eagerly await future resolutions on other burning social issues like abortion, guns, immigration. Maybe theyll even branch out to the potential use of chemical weapons in Syria. This is laughable and does not do much to burnish their image to the public. For decades the schools have suffered neglect because of deferred maintainence. this has occurred during the tenure of many superintendents (some of whom are revered and some of whom are reviled), school committees, City Councils (few of which have ever been friends of the schools) and one or two Mayors. There's plenty of blame to go around for the conditions of the schools and it's all equally deserved so we can't point to just the current people in charge. Its not rocket science - at some point the bill comes due for everything that you put off.
