As this update is being posted to Wait, What? the Bridgeport Board of Education’s “Board Policy Committee” is meeting in Bridgeport. The five member committee is made up of three Democrats loyal to Mayor Finch and his political operation and two members of more independent minded, one a Democrat and the other a member of the Working Families Party.
Any action taken tonight by the Board Policy Committee must be confirmed by the full Board of Education before it takes effect.
At first glance, tonight’s Board Policy agenda looked relatively innocent that was until one took a closer look at the wording of Agenda Item #2. The Agenda Item is entitled; “Rule Change to Close Debate”
Board Policy Agenda:
- Approval of April 29, 2013 Minute
