…and know that I don’t take any joy in what I feel Evanston has turned into. In the case of education here, it’s tragic because it’s the kids that lose.

The very kids that they purport to help! There are tons of private options here and those with the means have all left to those options, which means they're just taking advantage of the very people they say they want to help. I just don't get it .. I get the sense they don't even want the authority they have.
Right on, Tom. I don’t get it. Haven’t for years. It’s an upside down world in Evanston. I don’t know what happened but it’s like a care (for real care)/pay attention switch has been turned off.
Also another thing for your followers: it’s likely 3 SEATS WILL BE UP FOR GRABS NEXT ELECTION. I’m hearing that 3 current board members will not run again. Sad to think where we might be by then.
I can't imagine any of them would want to stick around and rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic. Even for people who do a good job I can imagine that serving on the board is a grind.
But when you've so blatantly been asleep at the wheel and the train is coming in at 200mph to hit a brick wall, I can see why you'd want to jump ship. (excuse my ridiculous mixed metaphors)

Where are you hearing the incumbents whose terms are up won't run again?
