1.2 Million in Fed funds!

As the latest article in the Salem News will tell you http://www.salemnews.com/local/x1858744339/-1-2M-in-federal-money-lands-in-Peabody-schools the Peabody School system has received 1.2 Million dollars from the Fed. Now we all know of the gripes regarding the bus fees, user fees, weekend heating/cooling fees, teacher layoffs, recent try to close a school and re-district, and most recently the astronomical charge to obtain a class yearbook as a senior!  What is next?  Oh, let's not forget about the School Superintendent's latest pay hike and that secret closed door meeting amongst the elite leaders of said School Committee.

Some hilarious comments at the Salem News website suggest that Mayor Schmuck-a-lufagus "plans of building a city-run nursing center", and "that he is planning on building a performing arts center for his buddy Dave and his wife."  Just a couple of comments out there today, something to think about.

Until Next Time, Let Freedom Ring!
