The Excuses Need To End

According to the information below from the T&G the RFP for the security audit of the Worcester Public Schools has not even been completed yet. I guess the safety of our students and staff is not a priority with Dr. Boone. She stated in April that the audit would be completed early in the school year, which in my opinion was still too late.

The fact that the RFP has not even been completed since April in nothing short of incompetence.The best $300,000 we could spend as a school system would be to buy Dr. Boone’s contract out. Enough is enough. If safety is not a priority with her, then she needs to go.

But Ms. Boone said after Thursday’s meeting that there’s no room in the school operating budget this year, and that she would prefer to hold off until a more comprehensive audit of the district’s entire security system can be performed. She said the district is still putting together a request for proposals for that audit, which she and other city officials promised back in late April.
“From that, we’ll come back to the School Committee with some recommendations for what we can do” to improve safety in the schools, Ms. Boone said. “I’m not looking to piecemeal this work.”
She said the RFP will likely be advertised within the next month, but did not have a timeline for when the audit would actually be completed.
