Superintendent Robert Amodio sent a letter home to parents on April 1, 2011. The letter was placed in the package along with the children's report card. I think the Superintendent is trying to scare the parents into voting for this ridiculous tax levy.
On Jan 24, 2011 the Norwood City School District Board of Education voted unanimously to place a 8.61 mill 10 year Emergency Levy on the ballot for May 3, 2011. The word unanimously strikes me the most. Is it a fact that not one board member voted no on the Levy? Norwood Board you are telling us that not one person felt uncomfortable enough to say no. I find it odd that everyone would be doing the same o thing. Going along to get along.
I fear this levy is tied into the Gov. Kasish HB5. The letter stated, through collaboration with the unions all school employees had a base pay freeze for two years, beginning with the 2009-10 school year. Well those two years are almost up. Will this levy money go into employees raises? I would say "yes" and that is where I have a issue.
People don't fear voting No. Hold the Board to the oath they took. Serve or else get off the board and let fresh air get in there.
