A completely different subject: TUSD school closures

by David Safier

I received this email from a friend this morning. Here's the whole thing.

I love to go out to breakfast and today, I had the urge to go to Ghini’s. As I was almost finished, in walked Mark Stegman. I told him how impressed I was with the people who testified at the [school closure] hearing on Monday evening and hoped this board would leave the matter to the incoming board. He does not agree – like, really does not agree!!! I mentioned that both Jeff Rogers and Steve Kozachik on AZ Illustrated last night thought that was what should happen. He did not agree. I pointed out to him that their administrative costs were waaaay too high and should be lowered – I don’t think he heard that. I seconded the suggestion of one parent that by putting solar on the schools – which they could do at no cost with many of the installers and he did not agree. Finally, I said well, we just don’t agree and he kept pushing that it has to be done RIGHT AWAY!!! And I continued to repeat well, we just don’t agree. The man is a bonehead!!!!!!!!!
