Make sure we all vote for the board members who will hire teachers based on merit and experience rather than political affiliation or athletic benefit.
Most teachers who are hired are hired right out of college. So good luck on the expreience. And as stated before, tenure laws protect them once they're in so it really matters not who the board members are once a teacher gains tenure.
Also, I would love to see any candidate for any office state that he/she will not hire based on the practice of nepotism or politics. And if they do, I'll hold them to it.
