Jeff Burbank is the current principal at
the Colbert County alternative school. Earlier this week, the board
of education transferred him to a classroom position at Colbert County High School
for the fall term. Interesting development, isn’t it? Now the
position at the alternative school is open for Tony Olivis to fill.
Will Olivis attempt to fill it with Bob
Montgomery, the beleaguered Colbert Heights Elementary School
principal now on administrative leave? That, gentle readers, is what
one of our sources told us over a week ago—days before the board
meeting.
Ideally, such a position should be
posted. Even more ideally, the current principal wouldn’t have been
transferred to start with. So now we have Superintendent Anthony
Olivis either removing or attempting to remove four of his nine
school administrators since he took office less than two years ago.
The TimesDaily has listed $21,000.00
as the current amount spent so far in attempting to oust Bob
Montgomery. Obviously, it’s not over yet.
What of the other three administrators?
Just how many tax payer dollars have been spent defending the school
board against their legal motions? Will Jeff Burbank sue? Will Bob
Montgomery be forced to sue to retain his job at CHES? Will the board
pull its collective hair out?
Pass the popcorn...
Shoalanda
Come on now. These are people's lives and livelihoods we are talking about. The parents and taxpayers of Colbert County need to demand an explanation from Olivis as to his 'reasonings' (and I use that term lightly) behind his actions.
