      Subject: Re: FW: Contact the Board

      Ms Fellows
      Thank you for contacting the Board of Education.  I agree that the boards duty is to listen to all community members.  
      The new superintendent is not included in the formula based contract, but all administrators are. 
      Thank you
      Judy Gafa

      Subject:        No Paycuts For District Employees
      Name:   Jeannie Fellows
      Email:  fellowsjeannie@yahoo.com
      Phone:  (313) 886-9089
      Comments or Concern:    I do not understand how there is money for a greenhouse, superintendent search, board studies, travel for choir, athletics, etc. but now you- Mr. Ismail, are proposing a pay cut. This is insane and shame on you for acting on Brendan Walsh's ideas. He does not speak for the community. Although at one time he was a board member, remember he quit before his term ended. He is just one citizen with one opinion and should be treated as such. Our employees have already taken significant cuts. The last minute action of putting this in the agenda for Monday night is ridiculous and not right. You are part of a team, not a dictator. Please vote no on any proposed pay cut for our district employees. By the way, would this pay cut you are proposing include the new superintendent?
