Editor,
On Friday, Jan. 25 the “Indianapolis Star” ran a tiny classified ad announcing a public meeting in Noblesville to discuss some additional perks for our superintendent of Noblesville Schools. Among other things, this public meeting will discuss bonuses for the current superintendent when she announces her retirement date, providing a specific timeline of 90 days’ notice is fulfilled; a hefty sum of $25,000 will be given to her for this announcement. An additional announcement of a retroactive pay raise, payable to July 2013, was also announced. Why is this pay raise retroactive? This is an additional $10,000 or more just for being our superintendent. Why is this announcement in the “Indianapolis Star” and NOT in the “Current in Noblesville” or the “Noblesville Times”? Obviously, the voters will not be aware of this meeting on Feb. 4 at the Educational Services Center on River Road, so now we know that the school board, elected by the people, does NOT represent the people. Some changes MUST be made in future elections. THEY ALL MUST GO!!!
