Fosters Opinion: Great Calvin!

Another opinion letter to the Fosters editor today in support of Calvin Jarvis' recent opinion piece published July 8, 2011.

Great Calvin!

To the editor: I was much impressed with the articulate commentary titled "ORCSD invents school-boarding." He obviously has been paying attention over the years and has seen the "elitist" attitude of the disposed former members of the school board. The "FORE" group has been a self-appointed throng set to undo the long awaited overhaul of the board's practices.

For decades the board has abrogated it's responsibilities of being a "check and balances" group who should oversee the conduct of the administration and demand "best business practices". What was once a top school, became an "overfed" athlete that was no longer a star. I hope all parties will set their goals on a community wide effort to restore ORCSD to a top, well managed, well administered school that we can all be proud of and afford.
