Waiting an hour for the public comment period at a Missoula County Public Schools Board Meeting and welcome to missoula SCHOOL watchdog!!

Hello Missoulians!

A little housekeeping -

This is a new blog which is being created by the same creator of missoula schools watchdog.

The two blog names are similar, however, the new blog name is without an "s" on school.

The missoula schools watchdog blog was linked to a blog titled, "missoula on ice".

The decision to separate from the later blog was due in part to have all information regarding the new blog sharing the identical name. In other words, all posts will be by "missoula school watchdog" rather than "missoula on ice".

Please go to missoula schools watchdog to read past posts as there is a lot of information that is still helpful in understanding some of what is going on in the Missoula County Public Schools school district.

Getting back to the title of this blog post.  missoula schools watchdog's first post was about waiting for more than an hour to make a public comment and how out of line that was.

So, to add some continuity between the two blogs missoula school watchdog decided to start with the same topic.

msw, again, had to wait for an hour to make a three minute public comment  (on a non-agenda item) just two days ago at the June 11, 2013 Board Meeting.

Two people spoke during the public comment period. The first person did speak for quite a bit longer than the three minute time limit that is usually in place. msw spoke next and may have gone slightly over the three minute time limit. 

This was Joseph Knapp's first meeting as the Chairman of the MCPS School Board.  msw hopes that Knapp will follow the public comment guidelines so that there is consistency in the time citizens take to speak before the Board. This way everyone is playing by the same rules.

Anyway, welcome to the misssoua school watchdog blog!

Let's get some common sense into Missoula County Public Schools business. Missoula's children, parents, and citizens have suffered enough due to corruption and shenanigans.

missoula school watchdog will continue in the general direction of it's predecessor, missoula schools watchdog, that is simply to point out what msw sees wrong in the MCPS school district - which is unfortunately a lot at this time.

If anyone sees things that Missoulians need to know about their schools msw would like to encourage you to join the blogosphere!! Missoula  needs you!

Blogger is quite easy to use.  We need many watchdogs to keep an eye on  Missoula County Public Schools.  Ruff, Ruff!
