You're both right, IMHO. I know Robert personally, and yes, gay has nothing to do with it, as long as the job is being done. Robert was appointed first by the State, then he was duly elected. End of story! If he is found to be incompetent, then that's another story, but so far so good!You have to walk a mile in a Black Man's shoes before you criticize why Mr. Maynard is up in arms. I am Black also and I think educated Black minds are best for Black children, my opinion. I don't mean ANY Black person, just competent Black people. Stand on my side of the street and you'd know. I don't know all of the details of the so-called tampering, but I know both of the parties involved. I've heard some details from a teacher in the high school who claims Reinoso involved her when she wasn't involved at all. He was the culprit and chose to drag the other party down with him. Yes, he's a punk if that's the true story. My opinion. What got me is the whistleblower who did this is also reported to be jealous of both of them and chose this course of action. Gossip? Maybe! I don't really know all of the insider details but I'm repeating what I heard. I don't know the originator of the email in question, but he/she has a right to his/her opinion without profanity involved. Don't know what the rules of this group are but I hope we can be civil, if not polite.

A TOTAL DISGRACE! When is the Westside gonna be > redeveloped? Just asking! I agree with both points of view. Bobby's sexual preference has nothing to do with anything. I also, think you're correct in stating that African American youngsters need professional Black role models, but I feel the Asbury Park School District getting the best of all worlds. Bobby and the guys have brought fresh ideas to help with the district's diversification. Dr. Lewis is running the district in a orderly, competent manner and he has my respect especially after he publicly backed Bobby when there were the issues with Maynard. Remember? I think there are some tremendous things happening in the elementary schools. I listened to Maureen's show when the group from Dr. Lewis's office was on speaking of all the strides that are being accomplished in the pre and elementary schools. I was utterly impressed with the obvious management of the district. Now that the elementary schools are progressing, I know our superintendent can concentrate on the High School. Unfortunately, that school has had a bad streak of luck, losing that nasty principal (I saw him on the beach and he's still a nasty man) and vice principal last year for what I believe was record tampering. So now for the good news while jogging this week around the back of the high school, I met the adorable new principal of our high school. He's Hispanic with tremendous urban experience. I enjoyed talking to him and from what I gather, the high school is going to be on right track this coming year. Great job, Dr. Lewis and the Board! Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
