Worcester County, MD Commissioner Chip Bertino asks the Board of Education about the direction from the top and how it filters down through the ranks of how to do business. Currently it looks like County Government is allocated $26M more than needed to fund the Maryland Blueprint. We all know the State doesn't give us our fair share, but the directives come from the top to reign in costs. Where are the Efficiencies?!?! It does not seem like the Mindset is there with the Board of Education.

Chip Bertino, Commissioner Prisident, asks CFO Vince Tolbert about whether or not the BOE has thought about refiguring or reimagining their budget per the AIB recommendations for the Blueprint for Maryland. More specifically, has there been any reimagining on the Board of Education budget in regards to efficiencies and economies of scale to ensure we are funding appropriately. Listen closely for the Board of Education's unclear answer...

Worcester County, MD Commissioner Fiori doesn't leave much wiggle room for confusion on what he is trying to accomplish. Despite local opposition smear tactics, Commissioner Fiori explains his stance on supporting Public Education.

Commissioner Eric Fiori of Worcester County, MD is fired up about School Activity Accounts that were not part of the voted upon Board of Education Budget. There is an activity account that resides at each school that has a projected fund balance total of $1.567M for this year. These funds could potentially help fund teacher classrooms! Listen as a teacher postcard is read aloud on how she is paying to supply her classroom, when operationally the school system seems to have quite a bit of money to be able to supply these classroom expenses!

"Whether it's called a crime statistic, or whether it's called a referral, I would hope we can all agree that some sort of violation has taken place." Behind every statistic (in Worcester County Safety and BOE presentations from week of February 26th), someone was violated. Excellent monologue from Commissioner Chip Bertino about Safety Presentations from the State's Attorney and Sheriff's Department, followed up by a rebuttal presentation from the Board of Education. Let's look at the big picture here folks, not semantics in numbers. We have a real problem here that needs to be addressed.

Despite Board of Education Members saying they don't rubber stamp budgets, I don't know folks, that's exactly what it sounds like to me. Board Member Katie Addis has David and Goliath moment having heated conversations with members of the Elected Board and Executive Team in regards to the budget the Board was getting ready to vote on. Did Board Member William Buchanan really admit he's not qualified to be a Board Member? And why is Dr. Annette Wallace allowed to interject when she is not a board member, or being questioned by one. Lots of interesting things happening here. And people wonder why Boards of Educations across the country are being scrutinized...

On November 21, 2023, Worcester County, MD Board of Education holds public comment and many citizens came to speak on their concerns of sexually explicit books in public school media centers in both middle and high school.

The student representative shows his disapproval of the public comment. Comment below if you believe student representatives should be dismissed after giving their monthly presentations.

The Political Theater was laid on THICK in the room on Tuesday evening March 15th. You determine for yourself what the BOE's vision is for our children's future...
