W.C. Gentry, who is seeking reelection by the way, wants there to be less transparency from the school board. He seems to want you the citizens of Jacksonville to know even less about the workings of 1701 Prudential Drive or what teachers call the hole of doom and despair.
In a times union article ironically enough about school board transparency, Gentry said he has even advocated for district staff to be less specific in some of the notes and minutes they take on meetings.
LESS SPECIFIC!?!
Mr. Gentry may not like it but a citizen shouldn’t have to be at a meeting of elected officials to know what happened at the meeting. If anything the school board should be more transparent and if they were maybe they would not have made some of the truly terrible decisions that they have.
The truth as I see it is the board long ago stopped representing the city’s children, teachers, and stakeholders and became only concerned with misrepresenting the job they have done.
