Getting Back To Normal

Things in Hardin are slowly getting back to normal. The deal with the private security company is done with. Amazingly the security company is stating that they are withdrawing from the proposal because it would cost over $1 million to fix the infrastructure of the building. Things are falling apart inside. What they don't mention is that the head man is a fraud and a shyster and also the state attorney general started an investigation into this company. The company did not comply with the state attorney generals requests so that is a done deal.

Now the news is how some people want the Hardin Schools superintendent ousted from his job. He is also the vice president of the Two River Trade Authority and he was the spokesman for Two Rivers during this ordeal. He was the one who made the comment that he did his homework into the company and some other comments the people didn't like. Well, we all know he didn't do a thorough job of his homework.

Last Tuesday was a school board meeting and it did get pretty heated. People asked for his resignation and he told them a big NO. Rumors have it that people are putting together a petition to have the school board fire him immediately.

Needless to say my office is getting the phone calls to fire him. The people think that the county superintendent can hire and fire school personnel, which we can't. Also when people look in information for superintendent they find my office. The district superintendents are listed under the school district names.

On top of all this, the school district asked for a vote on a bond issue to enlarge the high school and repair the roof of the middle school. The school election is over on the 20th and from what I hear on the streets, it won't pass. Mainly because of the prison issue and the district superintendents role in it. Some comments from the newpaper blogs state that there is a perfectly good empty building that can easily be remodeled to a school. They can put the freshmen and sophomores in the prison or they can move the middle school to the prison building and then the high school could expand into the middle school.

For now things are slowing down and I hope Hardin can get back to normal and out of the spotlight.
