Superintendent Defends His Comparison to Upper Dublin High School

On Election Day, several high school students were seen handing out a Lower Merion School District flier that, among other things, made a case for the district's plan to build new high schools.  Many citizens sees this as a violation of Act 1 (for information on Act 1, click here), which states that: "No public funds may be used to urge any elector to vote for or against a referendum or be appropriated for political or campaign purposes."

Board President Strikes Back at lmsd.info

There is no doubt that Board President Larry Rosenwald is a master of control.  This time, he has figured out how to not only muzzle the public, but also his own board!

Blame It On The Board Solicitor!

Several months ago I wrote in hopes that the school board would be willing to correct some “misinformation” that it had distributed in the June 2006 edition of the District Digest. 

2007 VOTE: Don't Pull the Level on the School Board...BE INFORMED!

You may have seen our handout at the poles on Election Day 2006.  In keeping with our commitment to remain non-partisan, we asked both Parties to hand it out.  While we have heard that one party handed more out than the other, we were happy to know that, at many poles, both the Democratic and Republican committee people saw our handout for what it is, a non-partisan appeal to voters to become informed about the issues that will face our next School Board.  And so you may have received a copy from a your local committee person or directly from a member of our group.  If you did not receive our handout on Election Day, please (click here for a copy), and please stay informed over the next several months as new candidates emerge to challenge the the Board to be make education and learning their number one priority.
