NadoS, if your ego is so big, why do you hide behind a screen name? Most people remain anonymous becasue they would never say publicly what they do in forums such as this, I for one don’t brag about my ego and prefer anonymity. So, what’s your excuse because I’m sure you have one. And as for running the world, all you run is goashe becasue you are always on it and putting your two-cents into everyone’s business. Now go ahead and call me names and talk down to me becasue that’s all you do when someone calls you out.

All I did was point out the errors(ity) of your arguments. Now if anyone corrects you, you automatically claim they are me. Either contribute to the discussion or leave. It does not matter how many screen names you use, or who you think I am the fact is you have zero fact to back up your complaints. Anyone that has been on the site for any amount of time will know that Fins and I have very different points of view.

Seems a couple of screen names on this thread and a old dead school superintendent thread have claimed that anyone that speaks against them is Heels. Fins and I have been named many people in the past., four or five that are now dead.

ROFLMAO, you f’ing m-or-on. So now I’m supposed to be heels? Clearly you’ve not paid attention to this site at all. I’ve made it clear time and time again, my ego is too big to share credit for my work with multiple screen names.

The world has changed from when you had to crap in a outhouse. You either need to get up to speed, or go back to your shack with no plumbing and stop complaining about how the rest of us run the world.

NadoS, you made a comment earlier that most companies do not promote from the ground up anymore, so folks should not assume a trained and experienced educator will be given the job as superintendent. You speak out of both sides of your mouth with this statement as that is exactly what was done when your mother was given the position. Just becasue she has worked for the school system for 40+ years as a secretary/bookkeeper/finance officer, does not mean she has the know how to run a school system. It is obvious that more things than not have gotten worse under her rule. Teachers are dictated to which might have led to higher test scores, but at what cost? Anyone that has kept up with this site over the years knows that you are none other that Heels09 himself. Tell your mom when she’s finished collecting her massive salary and $10.000.00 a year bonus to pack her crap and get out before everyone goes ahead of her.

“We will all be working for her one day”? Stup, just what does that mean? Are you admitting that she has a secret plan to steal power?

Jack Rip Her. We all know it doesn’t take much to behoove you! Doesn’t take a genius to figure out who starts all this trash. Just read the threads. Fairly obvious.

Just because most of us have jobs and work, doesn't mean we can't post. That is why we are trolls. Just remember that DE has quiet the following and had the most votes for the county. We will all be working for her one day, and the SUPER's son and daughter will be with her and their children long after PY retires. She is in schools and listening to parents, students, and teachers. She is impressive. All should follow her suit. I doubt most of the regulars have ever even entered a school and I am sure the two who will be replaced have not. One is worried about his children and one is worried for control.


As far as Paul goes, he has an agenda. He has a son who attended MV and just ask teachers there their opinion of that family. I would be willing to give him a try, but do not say he doesn't have an agenda.

Seeing how your user name is only a few hours old it behooves me as to how you know so much about who is who on this forum.

Hilarious how DE and the group that she is the puppet for constantly use this platform with different user names to push their agenda of lies. Be professional, stop being biased to just one side and learn to listen. That is what a School Board Member is elected to do!

I kind of liked that Paul Marcinco guy that ran before. He was young enough to be able to work an iPhone, had some financial background, and had no nepotism to anyone in the system.

Don't doubt that for a minute....just rhetorically speaking. But I'm not so sure that can be said for the quarter century board members, though.

Look at what our county commissioners gave bufurt 71K and Yearick 2 years salary.

Need to look @ the Golden Parachute rule that the former School Superintendent of Wilkes acquired when he retired.$500 k plus was what he was owed by the Wilkes school system.BOE members had to approve this and because of a lack of knowledge about the situation were somewhat shocked.

The Key to a good school board is diversity. We don't need all former educators or all parents or all administers. We need a mix of all and that is what we lack. Differing points of view is a good thing and also it ensures that we are all represented fairly and equally. I also think that we should split the board into districts. Each area of the county needs a voice. It would also not be a bad idea to have representation from WCC at every meeting. They have just as much of a stake in the education needs of the county as the school system.

When you look at Washington DC and you dont see that staying in office for 25 years is not good then you are part of the problem. Its the same for the school board.

My question is why Mrs Eldreth going to the school during school hours and interrupting teachers tryin do do their job? I guess that’s why they are calling. Let the teachers do their job. Eldreth is just and old disgruntled teacher herself. She is just a pawn for some of the losers in the last election.
All school board members should be parents anyway. What do old farts and disgruntled teachers know about helping our kids. They all have an agenda.



You are right; they all have an agenda. You do, I do, the current board does, PY does, Fins, we all do. The key with the board is to have enough turn over that someone doesn't get so entrenched that they are able to implement their agenda to the detriment of the students. When current board members have been in place for a quarter century, it's time for a change. Politicians and toilets need flushing, most often for the same reason. Someone new please. Serve your term (or two) and then go home.

Most parents don’t have a clue either. Get some educated professionals on there. But you bring up a good question about her going to the schools in the middle of the day. And those dried up disgruntled teachers are so out of date and behind, they don’t have a clue.
