Courage is the most important of all
the virtues, because without courage you can't practice any other
virtues consistently. You can't be consistently kind or fair or
humane or generous, not without courage, because if you don't have
it, sooner or later you will stop and say, "The threat is too much.
The difficulty is ...too high. The challenge is too great. ~ Maya

September 15, 2009 Question of
the Week
What is EANES LINK and why
does the superintendent share the the "inside
scoop" with only this membership when the rest
of the taxpaying community isn't allowed the
same opportunity ?
Who chooses the members of
this elite organization?
Two years ago Eanes
ISD superintendent Nola Wellman created a select
group called EANES LINK. The
membership of this group, as described in a
letter from Wellman, will receive "updates on
breaking news and emerging issues, information
on upcoming events and board actions,
newsletters, brochures and personal invitations
to district activities ... and opportunities to
provide feedback throughout the year."
Two years later,
have you heard of EANES LINK?
Two years later, there isn't a single hit on
Google for "EANES LINK" that describes,
defines, or offers information from the district
about this group.
Censored books?
Wellman's complaints against teachers? ADA
compliance ... or not?
Noncompliance with the
state public information laws? Class size?
District planning?
Facility Rental fees?
Bond program? Spanish in elementary
schools?
In response to a public
information request about this group, Eanes ISD
claims to have no responsive documents
that show how the membership is "nominated" or
selected.
Take a look at the
communications from Nola Wellman to EANES LINK
... only available on KEEPEANESINFORMED.
