Sweetwater school district board approves Alliant partnership

Susan Luzzarro - this is very interesting Ms. Luzzaro, because other than the google alert I received, I have found nothing.

Sweetwater school district board approves Alliant partnership

oskidoll - surely board president Jim Cartmill is well aware of the do's and don't s - yet it continues with him leading the board. It appears that Quinones and Mccann weren't the only board presidents that were being dictated to - we now can add Jim Cartmill to the list. I received a google alert advising that the City of Imperial Beach is hosting a forum in which SUHSD board member(s) will be presenting. Hopefully there will be a question/answer period. All of the communities of the South Bay need to demand answers from this rag tag group that has deceived us. And "IF" Mccann attempts to deflect the L Street issue with his 'when I was on the city council', let us remind him JUST HOW MANY YEARS AGO THAT WAS - And ask him 'what have you done regarding the issue since you have been on the school board' - NOT A THING but help cover it up......... Ask Jim Cartmill why did he hid the truth about Alliant behind his 'dance' speech, why did he authorize Ed Brand to have another credit card? Ask Arlie Ricasa how she could expect us to listen to her 'respect Dr. Brand speech', the same man who phoned a community members employer simply because the community member had the nerve to speak at a board meeting, ask her why she used her position for alleged personal financial gain and benefits.

The Alliant video was up on the districts website and Utube BEFORE the meeting and was then taken down during the meeting AFTER a speaker showed it- I just listened to an audio tape of Jim Cartmill, I listened to it several times, how/why would/could he? Please be sure to forward this onto all of your email contact lists.

The dance, as Jim Cartmill referred to it, well it appears that Cartmill, the guy and Alliant, the gal went TO the dance then LEFT the dance and conceived a baby - the agreement. Pretty fast work if you ask me. I thought there were laws like the Brown Act that should have served as "protection". We have been slapped in the proverbial face by Ed Brand, Jim Cartmill, Arlie Ricasa and John Mccann by their arrogance. Remember this if John Mccann decides to run for another office. We need him as a leader about as much we need another sermon by Jim Cartmill. Boy is anniej taking it from those who tried to warn her about being reeled in by Cartmill. The real Jim Cartmill has stood up, and google wll forever define him.

Gobigal - Thank You for this information. Let us ALL REMEMBER Jim Cartmill's words. Surely he is an honorable man, surely he would not deceive the tax paying voters.

I find it very interesting that Brand chose to take the video down. According to the board president Jim Cartmill the district did nothing wrong in posting the video prior to board approval, the fact that the video CLEARLY indicated an agreement had been made - I mean why else would Sweetwater be posting it for parents and students to see.

Ms. Luzzaro: Those 300 ROP students are also voters. I believe he also mentioned that fact when he spoke, or maybe it was during his conversation with the audience. Either way, they are organizing and meeting, and something tells me they have very long memories.

A gentleman at the board meeting handed the board an envelope which included signatures.

Contrary to the comments made above, the board room was filled yet again. The 300 VOTERS names presented to the board Monday, a drop in the bucket. Think about it - how many persons does each attendee know? Each of those persons too has many contacts. And so on, and so on, and so on.

I find it amazing that Ed Brand is taking away ANY ROP or ADULT ED classes choosing to make some of these struggling persons pay Alliant University a substantial increase for their classes. While Ed Brand is attempting to present himself the hero with some local and state politicians stating he supports ROP and Adult ED, I am hearing he is seen for what he is an opportunist. Persons who use to believe in John Mccann now questioning his validity after learning he has sat by and done nothing to expose the truth about what was done before he arrived on the L street issue. His alignment with Jim Cartmill, Arlie Ricas and Ed Brand,who did sanction the deal and evidently 'can live with their decision' of purchasing property with tax payers dollars and then simply giving it away reflects the real John Mccann - fiscal responsible PRETENDER! Our email list of VOTERS is growing substantially each week. Keep forwarding all stories to friends, family, neighbors, children's friends parents - talk about it at Von's, Macy's, Bento Noodles etc - anywhere you go. It is working!!!!! I was just contacted regarding a flier being sent out AFTER this election. Sweetwater issues listed as well as voting records. WOW what a great idea. One similar to what was received this week which was NOT endorsed by the opposing candidate. L STRRET and our alleged new colleges will for sure be highlighted - just to mention 2. Loans for financial troubles. Past election problems NOT having to do with our school board. Hmmmmm, a real blockbuster!!!! We, the VOTERS have the power to change ALL OF THIS!!!!!!!!
