BIRD HUNTING - IT'S ALBATROSS SEASON

Principal: Flooded Lynn school safe

LYNN PUBLIC SCHOOLS did a YEOMAN'S job here. They are dealing with a difficult situation as well as can be expected, They are playing the hand they were dealt. PRINCIPAL MALLET is to be praised for her cool, swift response. Her use of the CONNECT ED technology to immediately contact all parents was laudable. You can't control mother nature.

BUT/////

the LPS does have a little blame here. How you might ask since INSPECTIONAL SERVICES control the maintenance which you would think LPS don't got no "SKIN IN THE GAME"..

UNLESS.....

you realize the fact that the MAYOR who has the ISD under her wing at CITY HALL also chairs the LYNN SCHOOL COMMITTEE. Ouch!

I know, I know the current MAYOR had nothing to do with taking the JANITORS away from LPS. That was the old mayor. Yeah, let's make him the villain

EXCEPT......

JFK has been MAYOR how long now? I also point to her CULTURE OF CHEAPNESS has contributed deeply to the problem. Fear of overtime has led to buildings being ignored,

Now I heard some talk about them not even having heat in the kitchen. Maybe that is untrue but just out of curiosity where was that leak? It doesn't matter, YOU CAN'T CONTROL MOTHER NATURE but you can MANAGE it...
