OK so we've probably seen the drama that unfolded at the state board of education meeting. But what do you guys think about it?

Do you think Berresi is trying to act like a "dictator" at the start of her term to show she means business?

Is she maybe taking control back from when her predacesor didn't DO anything?

Regardless of whatever that opinion is, I think we'd all agree that the former state senator had no excuse to make his comment about the pregnant appointee.

And speaking of appointees, do you think an elected official or an appointed one holds more weight? It is true that she was elected, but could political motivation cause her to push some things that shouldn't be? If you're appointed, do you do things without considering how people will react because you aren't elected?

I sort of sitting back on this one. I was never a fan of Mrs. Garret, and I actually didn't vote for Beressi because of her lack of experience in education. But that doesn't mean she can't do a good job. It's just interesting to see something so big come out so soon after the change in office when NOTHING happened for years.
