Today we heard that the pretrial conference for Park City School District’s non-reported child abuse cases was delayed two weeks. This was after a previous delay. KPCW says that this delay was because “the Summit County Attorney’s Office and the district’s defense attorney have been negotiating a potential settlement.” First, we need to state what …

I’ve avoided talking about the school district’s lease revenue bonds because it’s a complicated topic. However, given the way the economy appears to be heading, it is probably about time to make sure we all understand the Faustian bargain our school board made. As most people know, the public passed a $79 million bond to …

How often have you heard that Park City Schools are the best in the state? Probably a lot. Recently the Park City School District sent out an email claiming Park City High School was the second-best high school in Utah, according to Niche.com. That sounds great. The only problem is that it’s not true. It’s …

Well, I didn’t make it. I’m sorry. I wanted to help change our schools but as that old 70’s song goes, “I gave it my best but I guess my best wasn’t good enough.” I wish it could have been different, but it is what it is. Thanks to all the people who voted. If …

Dakota Pacific isn’t about making our community better. It isn’t about affordable housing. It is about making a developer rich(er). For so long, the Summit County Council has said that …

It’s an interesting time for Park City schools. The November election seriously rebuked the current path of the school district. Meredith Reed and Nick Hill, who both won over incumbents, represent the public’s need for something different from our school board. Our school enrollment dropped. Nine, of twelve, Park City grades dropped in enrollment. Of …

I was hoping to be done posting about the Park City School Board election, but Mandy Pomeroy’s Campaign Finance Disclosures need to be discussed. It isn’t accurate. It portends that she has more support than she has. It also may not include all costs associated with her campaign. Why does it matter? If someone can’t …

We learned, again, from KPCW that the Park City School District has lied, lies, and continues to lie. Before, we were talking about building permits. Now we are talking about toxic lead dust potentially infecting five-year-olds, students, and teachers at McPolin Elementary and Treasure Mountain Junior High. This is the worst. Period. Park City School …
