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!

DR. PAUL KASUNICH BACKGROUND
Here is the educational leadership background of Dr. Paul Kasunich, this might explain why he is so hesitant to get involved and take a position. I found it very disturbing when two current BOARD members clapped in support of a position against the Trinity Area School Districts Director of Safety/Security [police officer].

TRINITY AREA SCHOOL BOARD REPORT 7.1.10
Tonights Trinity Area School Board Meeting was another in a long line of frustrating meetings to sit and endure. Large groups have people have turned out against many of the policies the BOARD has tryed to institute but it does not seem like the BOARD cares much about what the people have to say. Below I have attempted to give you a few highlights as I see them from the 7.1.10 meeting.
1. Board President Tom Bodnovich brought the meeting to order and you can barely understand what he says when he speaks, it makes for much confusion during the meetings.
2. A group of students wore maroon t-shirts that said Uniontown on one side and Fraudnovich on the other side. This seems to be because Mr. Bodnovich claimed to have played basketball at Uniontown High School on state championship teams, but the truth is he did not attend Uniontown High School.
3. Mr. Keisling and Mr. McWreath two former School Principals seem to have quite a bit of problem with public school employees getting health care benefits. It is ironic neither of them paid for health care when they worked for their employers as Principals.
4. Dr. Kasunich the new superintendent uses your school as a reference to Trinity often even though he is the Trinity Area Superintendent.
5. Dr. Kasunich never takes a position on any issue.
6. Judy Panasik who lives next door to Mr. Keisling and hangs out with the Board spoke in favor of the job they are doing as a Board. She also mentioned it was a small group who came to these meetings who were against the new board members. She obviously is not very good at math, as tonight there were 223 people in attendance who did not support the board. The other ten other than Miss Panasik who were there were related to the Board. She left with the BOARD members led by North Franklin Police down the hall. Allegedly she waited by the BOARD members cars after the meeting.
7. Miss Panasik said she missed lunch often to take honors courses in high school at Trinity. Enough said on that subject.
8. Mr. Keisling often lectures the crowd on what is going on and why, he should notice that nobody is listening.
9. Mrs. Interval who stated in public often that she knows nothing about athletics sure spends much time writing policies about athletics.
10. I think it is a family rule that any Day family member must attend Trinity School Board meetings to watch Board member Scott Day.
FINAL THOUGHTS
1. THE BOARD POSITION HAS NOT CHANGED ON ADMINISTRATORS COACHING SO AS OF TODAY LEVI BRISTOR WILL NOT BE THE TRINITY AREA BASEBALL COACH NEXT SEASON.
2. THE BOARD IS GOING TO FURLOUGH A SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER IN ORDER TO MAKE ROOM FOR MR. DALTON IN THE SOCIAL STUDIES DEPARTMENT. DALTON'S CONTACT SAYS IF A POSITION IS NOT AVAILABLE ONE WILL BE CREATED, FORLOUGHS CAN ONLY OCCUR WHEN ENROLLMENT DECLINES 20%. STAY TUNED!
3. HOW MUCH ARE WE PAYING ALL THESE ATTORNEYS?
4. FINALLY DR. KASUNICH SAID THE NEW BOARD DID NOT TALK ABOUT THE YOUTH FOOTBALL PROGRAM AND REQUIRING GUARDS, AMBULANCE, SCOREBOARD OPERATORS. WHEN QUESTIONED AND ASKED DOES THAT MEAN NOTHING WILL HAPPEN HE SAID HE DIDN'T SAY THAT NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN. LOOK FOR THE TRINITY PROGRAM TO NOW BE PLAYED AT CHARTIERS HOUSTON SCHOOL DISTRICT THIS YEAR.
