From the always spot-on Billy Dennis, aka, the Peoria Pundit:

After years of complaints by teachers, parents and just about anybody paying attention, it looks like Peoria School District 150 is going trim the administrative fat...

How many are getting the heave-ho? Well, 25 of them were notified, but I strongly suspect a lot of them are staying as jobs get combined.

But any reduction is non-teaching staff is welcome. The next step is getting rid of the damn consultants, and making sure none of the people who lose their jobs get hired back as consultants.

We hear the same stuff in the Gem City. Next week's special meeting of the Quincy School Board may have a bigger turnout than Budfest I.

I'm working on some things leading up to that meeting. In the meantime, I'll be in Springfield today on some business and a taping of Capitol View on WQEC. You can watch Friday night. I'll track down the time later.

This week's program will not be for the weak. I feel the need to bring my A game.

Why is next week's meeting a closed session? Its too important for it to be closed. Or is that why it is?
