TRINITY AREA BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING 7.15.10

I missed this meeting but was brought up to date on the details. Here is my bullet report of highlights and insights from the meeting by people who were at the meeting.



1. Alledgedly, Tom Bodnovich was very difficult to understand again, and he made numerous mistakes again on when to vote and what was being voted on, and he informed everyone that an executive session was held to discuss personnel problems.[its personel matters Tommy] His Uniontown or Redstone or whatever education did not go over Roberts Rules very well.

2. No matter what you read in the Observer-Reporter the BOARD passed a policy prohibiting Levi Bristor from coaching baseball for Trinity. The five votes to end Levi's successful baseball tenure, Interval, Clutter, Day, Keisling, Bodnovich.

3. Why doesn't the BOARD consider a policy on physical fitness for BOARD members especially the Elite Eight? It will help make them more productive and set an example for the students.

4. Why do BOARD members bring their children to the meetings?

5. Allegedly Mr. Keisling was going to begin one of his rambling segments, but Mr. McWreath pointed out to him the information he was going to read was displayed on the screen above the BOARD members. It appeared that Mr. Keisling was disappointed he did not get to talk.

6. Supposedly, Mr. Clemens stated the BOARD did not want the policy about who can coach, that a former superintendent thought it was good idea. But allegedly that superintendent was directed by Mr. Bodnovich to write that policy.

7. Allegedly, Ken Bonnell gives the BOARD many of their good ideas.

8. Allegedly, Dr. Kasunich appears to be worn out by the Elite eight!

9. Allegedly, when Mr. Day cast the fifth vote to end Levi Bristor's baseball coaching career at Trinity, it appeared he had trouble speaking.



And one final thought given to me by the smartest man I know, with our new technology initiative, smart boards for every classroom, lap tops for every teacher, how about clip on mikes so you can hear the Elite Eight speak at BOARD Meetings!!!

Also don't forget Trinity Day at Kennywood!
