Fired this afternoon by the new majority on the Wake County School Board.

Anonymous said...: Are you happy? You have no argument in this fight as you do not live in Wake County or have school age children. The parents that I know in Wake County are upset with this useless fight among the "adults" and it only causes more problems in that area. They have to pay him off with $250,000.00 and now have to find a replacement. What a bunch of disfunctional moderates.; 9:51 AM
