Editor:
After having read the letter to
the editor May 28 by Rev. Timothy J. Kielley, I, too, couldn’t sit idly
by either so I decided to write in also to your desk.
I, too, must take issue with the
three citizens of Littlestown who claim that the school board is somehow mismanaging
school taxpayers funds.
I find the accusations almost laughable
if it was not for the rumor mill that swirls around a small community like Littlestown.
All I will point out is that this is brought up by the same three people who
find it necessary to micromanage every aspect that they could get their hands
on.
If these three want to help run
the school district, please, by all means, run for the offices the next time
they are up for re-election. I will be willing to remind the good people of
Littlestown of these accusations when or if that time would ever come.
The current make-up of this board
is what this district sorely needed at this time of tremendous growth when the
financial and growth needs of this school district needed to be balanced.
As with Rev. Keilley, I, too, think
the three people who constantly bring up these and other baseless accusation
would do better to spend their time really helping kids in our district. I doubt
though since people like these three would rather complain than help out.
I am getting just tried of hearing
these type of accusations by the same three people, so I would like the good
people of Littlestown to check into what the truth is, not just what a minority
is saying.
And just so you don’t have
to add an editor’s note to mine as well, John Warehime, school board president,
is my brother and he didn't ask me to write this letter. I felt it had to be
said by myself.
