Letter to the Editor: Time for Love

It is so nice to see young people getting involved in our school board races. It is often a neglected position but this year it has gained the attention it deserves. I have had the sincere pleasure to meet Amanda Love and I can tell that she is special and an ideal fit to serve […]

Letter to the Editor: Warriors for school board

Amanda Love and Christy Giampetroni have been beating the pavement from morning until night, introducing themselves and their platforms regarding the rights of parents, academic excellence, fiscal responsibility, and accurate and accessible Transparency. Who does that with a young family? Mothers who care and feel a need to do so. Someone brought them to my […]

Letter to the Editor: Support for McGinnis, Need

I am writing to endorse both Cheryl McGinnis and Greg Need for the Clarkston Community Schools Board of Education. Cheryl received the MASB President’s Award. They are both strong advocates for public education in Clarkston, and both are endorsed by the Clarkston Education Association. They were part of implementing the Multi-Tiered Systems of Support, to […]

Letter to the Editor: Taking no chances

We are very troubled by this year’s school board race. Cheryl McGinnis and Greg Need have done a great job and deserve to be re-elected. They are being challenged by persons who failed to respond to questions from the League of Women voters. One challenger, Amanda Love, has posed for pictures with three partisan office […]

Letter to the Editor: McGinnis the right advocate

We residents and Clarkston High School graduates encourage Clarkston Community Schools residents to evaluate the accomplishments and efforts of Cheryl McGinnis on behalf of all Clarkston students in her quest for another term as a trustee of the Board of Education. Many of us have known Cheryl McGinnis for 30 years or more. We know […]

Letter to the Editor: McGinnis, Need support

As a taxpayer and a parent, I’m very happy with the board of education at Clarkston Community Schools. I may not agree with every decision they make, but they are an experienced governing body attuned to the ins and outs of running a school district (as well as the tough compromises that come with that […]

Letter to the Editor: Township board issues

I attended the township board meeting on September 20 regarding a request for a public hearing. I made my presentation and gave plenty of documentation. A few of the board members looked almost asleep. That’s because the public notices were printed in the paper before the meeting began. On September 27, there was a meeting […]

Letter to the Editor: Vote Love, Giampetroni

Driving around town, I have been excited to see the numerous signs for supporting the candidates for our local school board. It is wonderful seeing our community involved in our schools. Two years ago, a small group of parents gathered outside the board office protesting the removal of our option for in-person schooling. Since then, […]

Letter to the Editor: Conservative watchdogs

I support Amanda Love and Christy Giampetroni for Clarkston School Board because it is time for a new perspective on the board. Clarkston is a largely conservative community. Amanda and Christy will be conservative watchdogs for the board and advocate in the best interest of the children and parents they represent. Amanda and Christy also […]

Letter to the Editor: Not a fan of Brown

This is outrageous. The election of Paul Brown as the Independence Township treasurer should be nullified. Paul elected to run for this position and then ran around to the other side of the table to vote for himself. The interviewee gets to decide that he gets the job? I’ve never heard of such a thing. […]
