While viewing the Glendale Unified School District School Board
meeting on Feb. 17, I was shocked to see board member Mary Boger
shedding tears regarding the criticism the board received for not
getting input from the district's Council PTA on adjusting the
calendar for the Jan. 6 Armenian Christmas.
The district's Council PTA criticized board members for not
partnering with parents on this issue. The Council PTA represents
only a small segment of the parents in this district and does not
represent the large ethnic population that resides in Glendale.
Getting back to Mary Boger -- it seems that she is too emotionally
unstable to represent the students in the Glendale Unified School
District as a board member. This isn't the first time she became so
emotional over a subject that she shed her tears. If you can't handle
the heat, get out of the kitchen. (Maybe Boger should be a
professional PTA member).
During this difficult time, we need emotionally strong board
members to make 'hard decisions' and represent our diversified
student population.
