Community Frustrations With Greencastle School Board
Last night’s city council meeting was a whirlwind. It started with an impassioned message from a local parent regarding her desire to improve our local school corporation. What stood out to me was her message that the frustrations in the community are not along political party lines or economic lines but instead are impacting all people equally and something that many people of “different” backgrounds are coming together on. You can listen to the entire conversation below.

Extending School Board Application Date Due To Political Reasons
Here is one segment of the greater school board discussion. I overhead members of council speaking privately regarding the political makeup of candidates (which was not a criteria). I am not okay with manipulation of rules, policies, or process to play politics or favorites.

It Takes All Of Us To Communicate Better
Early in the meeting a councilman accused a community member of not paying enough attention and blamed them for issues regarding construction. I joined the city council because I was frustrated with city government’s lack of communication. It takes all of us to communicate better and I challenge everyone in the city to do so.
