Meetings Don't Get Much Shorter Than This One

Mike DiDonato addressed the Pottstown School Board.

I would like to tell you that this is a news-filled post, overflowing with insights, surprises and newsflashes.

But then I would be lying to you dear reader.

And I try not to do that.

The truth of the matter is, this meeting was over in 25 minutes and there is little new to report that wasn't reported in our previous post or in The Mercury on Sunday.

The one new thing that happened is that someone, FINALLY, showed up to offer ideas on how to save money.

However, that person is someone who would have been there anyway, Federation of Pottstown Teachers Vice President Mike DiDonato.

Which is not to say his suggestions were not welcome or useful. They were short. In essence, he suggested that a blog or some sort of electronic suggestion box be embedded in the district's web site, to allow people to make suggestions.

Also, the board voted 7-2 to hire a new director of technology to replace the retiring Taffi Wolf.

Here are the Tweets, such as they are:
