Mike Darnold, CUSD Board
Meeting "Why are they trying
to destroy us? That is the question the press
should be asking. Why do they want to place people
in board positions that have no knowledge or
interest in public education. What is their
agenda? I challenge the press to do some real
journalism and find out who these people are, why
they want our district to be destroyed, why do
they want to…why do they want us to tear down San
Juan Hills High School and sell the district
office, sending our kids to overcrowded schools
and our administrators and staff back to cramped,
rented portables. Doesn’t anyone get this?"
Darnold
read this statement from a prepared speech he read
from the dais at the March 10, 2008 CUSD board
meeting. Darnold is one of the Fleming-era CUSD
trustees.

The catch-all Brown
Act exception the board used to justify all
manner of secrecy was 'Evaluation of
Superintendent,' which were it strictly about
Fleming’s performance would be OK. However,
board President
Marlene Draper told the grand jury she
allowed the board to discuss just about anything in
private because 'all issues pertaining to the
management of the district fall under his
evaluation.' "

Register "Not that the
Republicans’ process has been seamless or without
drama punctuated by moments of wonderment and
hilarity. Last week, for example, Capo schools
candidate Kathleen LeBon stood before the very
committee she wanted to OK her endorsement and
questioned members’ integrity, leading to a
protracted argument. Not only did she not get the
nod, but the GOP specifically endorsed against her
(one of only six such declarations it made.)”
