In the Times Union when speaking about Peter Rummell and the school board this is what former Mayor Jake Godbold had to say.
“Something I absolutely disagree with that group is…Rummell decided, Peter Rummell, that he was going to form a group of men, retired executives with a lot of brains and put them in each School Board district no matter who ran,” Godbold said. “Whether they were an incumbent, had done a good job, had worked hard, had a good record, didn’t matter.
Um, hmm, exactly what school board member is the former Mayor talking about? It’s not a member in Jacksonville that is for sure! The veterans on the board have been horrific for the city and its children. None have done a good job, none have a good record and if they have worked hard then I haven’t seen it.
The former mayor is completely out of touch with what is and has been happening in our schools.
Don't forget Vicki Reynolds and a couple of the cluster executive directors are also leaving.
