You don’t get the reference? Really? Think about it. I know you can do it. Put that giant brain to work!

I wonder if there is some ulterior purpose for these huge schools. They don't seem to be based on educational needs. They seem contrary to the best interests of education.

What you point out about Cheeseman is all the more reason to watch everything he recommends. A board majority of Cheeseman rubberstamps is NOT in the best interests of Beaufort County.

Now, that is a massive miss for these Bureau of Labor Statistics Department charged with knowing what is real regarding the labor side of our economy.

Hite Associates has designed and contracted many of these huge new high capacity schools all over.

Jimmy Hite is a board member of the private Oakwood school in Greenville. This private school boasts about the high performance of their students and contributes some of their success to the small class sizes, where students can get a more personal learning experience.

His actions and his beliefs seem to be in contradiction.

Disgraced superintendent Jeff Moss, who was accused of nepotism, unethical conduct, and cronyism, always seemed to hire Hite no matter what state or school district he was working for.

Cheeseman is also an Advisory Board member to this “RTM Group”, which gave him an award as top superintendent. RTM- meaning “Route to Market” is just about selling digital teaching sewage. They are literally snake oil salesman with no concern about the actual learning of students.

I’m really sick of these conglomerate groupies pooling their collective resources to rip off the taxpayer for millions. They sell big expensive ideas that truly offer nothing of substance. Then once they have sold what they can, they move to another district to do the same.

If we think that 10mil is all the taxpayers will be on the hook for, we may be gravely mistaken. The past shows us Hite Associates tends to go over budget.

The people not to elect to school boards are the woke and those seat warmers who are yes men for the bureaucracy. T.W. Allen, Eltha Booth, and Mack Hodges fall into both of those categories. We need a change. The conservatives are trying to get some reform but the rubberstamps for the bureaucracy have thwarted it so far. They need some reinforcements by getting rid of those three.

None of that is going to happen. Like Sarah Palin, RFK is too big a nut for Trump. Guys I’m not talking about politics, he has serious mental problems

You have to stop reading your own clippings.

Because you are capable of doing your own research. Read about it. The guy is a whacko.

Bolshevik Bob has just given us his laugh of the day. That one was really funny, Bobbie.

And it is clear that he has gotten a talking points directive to demonize Kennedy.

So Cheeseman chose a school construction firm that has been investigated by the FBI to build his huge new elementary school. Ironically, that was in South Carolina's Beaufort County schools. That is a huge red flag that this boondoggle needs to be watched like a hawk. It smells to high heaven.

RFK, Jr. would be awesome as head of CDC. That would give crooked Big Pharma heartburn. He is good on a lot of issues, but not on the climate crusade.
