I wa referring to our superintendent as the double dipper, and judging from your post West_sider that you are happy with
how the students are treated. Believe me NO ONE buys in to survival of the fittest more than me.

I've done this and it looks like that this will be the path I have to take...I was just looking for an accelerated way to get through the process....
And far as politics...if we as a community want change, and I agree the members of washington-nile township need to get out and there is no electoral college in our community we can make a difference individually
Re: West history or stats
West Sider things have changed alot since we were in school, and except for the football coach, I don't think their for the better. Evidently school spirit in the school is gone. No banners hanging, or signs on the wall, nothing. They used to decorate kids lockers, etc. All of this is frowned on now. You walk in this beautiful school and its bland. They won't even update the banners in the gym for the SOC titles and such.
I think the other poster is correct. There is a new guy running for school board. With that we will have majority of reasonable people who care for the kids and have kids in the system. As has been referenced, there is a grand scheme for another to take over as Superintendent when the current contract is up, and I too feel that the next one will be worse than the current. The only way to keep this from happening and get someone descent in there is vote for change and majority in the school board. That will put a monkey wrench into the grand plan. If your like me and you believe Scholastic achievement is an important part of education, you'll vote for change also.
I believe West needs to structure their school board and system like Wheelersburg. That is why they win so much in all sports and why their schools are graded so high. Expectation. They have people in place that understand the value of Scholastics in education and what is does to a school. It gives pride and promotes work ethic.
