This is so true! She reacts, she doesn't act. I think she longs very much to seem to others as a take charge and strong person, but deep down inside she is nothing but a follower and only takes what she thinks are chances when the danger is past. She would never take up for a minority unless everyone else is doing so already. Then, she would suddenly have courage, although that is not really courage.

The board should make a motion and vote to get rid of Elia's bonus pronto. That money should go to students and teachers, not her. She has done nothing but bring down morale.

I fear not one has the guts to mention the contract; and they did sign it. But they could say that they regretted that they signed this contract and that they will never be that disloyal to the taxpayers, students, and teachers again. They could give voice to the right thing to do even if it's too late now.

I believe the board attorney helped Elia insert the bonus scam that Lennard cooked up before her. The attorney is no friend of the taxpayers, students, and teachers. He is a big supporter of the no-bid contracts that former administrators get. His own firm got the job fourteen years ago with no advertising.

But the board doesn't even have sense or courage enough to manage its own attorney. Olson, Kurdell, Lamb, and Edgecomb are total slaves to Ms. Elia. Griffin and Valdes want to do something, but they don't have the courage to risk the disapproval of the rest of the board and the wrath of Elia.

Alas, alack, and weladay. lee
