Concerning Mr. Lieber's column and the resolution passed by the GCISD board on September 22, 2003, I do not feel compelled to defend nor apologize for my participation in that action.  Our stand was simply to speak out against those who feel a necessity to continuously call into question, without fact or basis, the competence and integrity of  our superintendent and his staff  under the noble heading of just doing what a trustee should do.  This practice will undermine a very high performing school district if allowed to continue.

Mr. Lieber fancies himself  as our community conscience and apparently he now has some disciples.  Even so, I stand for what is right for our community and will continue to show confidence, trust and respect to our school district leaders and their attempts to dedicate their time to the education of our children until their performance and behavior suggests that I do otherwise.  Apparently, Mr. Lieber does not see that those of us that voted for this resolution have any stewardship responsibilities concerning how our resources are spent.  His solution is take care of it on election day and we know who he supports.

For those who really care, I will continue to follow this approach until I choose to remove myself from this role.  I appreciate the support given to me and most importantly to our school district.  Our citizens are shouldering a huge tax burden because of "Robin Hood" and I commend the superintendent and his staff for their efforts to stretch the money as far as they can.  All the while, the district is performing very well academically as well as financially.
