Marxist Mary Bucci Resigns after Termination

Yes, good news for Pine-Richland residents:  Superintendent Dr. Mary Bucci's contract will not be renewed.  Hallelujah!  She has been a disaster. Bad news for the Marxist Symposium - who in their right mind would allow that to continue?

Now Bucci has decided to resign in January as broken by the Patch site.  Bucci's legacy will be lasting.  New elementary math program at $275,000+, new reading curricula at hidden cost (both financially and educationally), new principal in every building.  Constructivist STEM program across all subjects in high school.  No parent involvement in major decisions except as mandated by law.  The marxist annual high school "Symposium on Education" that brazenly showcased every leftist value (e.g. pro-communist, anti-Israel, anti-Christian, pro-United Nations, pro-global warming, anti-capitalist, America-hating) instilled in the students throughout the course of their Pine-Richland educational careers.  And it was a surprise that Bucci's job was in jeopardy?

It is incomprehensible that any of the board directors would have wanted to keep her on - including the new one who shouldn't be on the board if he didn't know what has been going on for the last 4 years!  The audacity of advising only Bucci supporters to the meeting just shows how unethical certain board members have become.  Per the Post-Gazette: "The lengthy meeting began with a public comment session in which virtually every speaker, including former board members, parents and educators, spoke in favor of Mrs. Bucci. Several criticized the lack of transparency in the process." Read more.  I feel cheated to have been denied the opportunity to once again voice my concerns to the board. 

Will a new superintendent really have an impact?  Sadly, no, not unless parents start paying attention to the content of their children's education even when their kid seems to be doing well.  As the Presidential election results confirm, 80% of people from age 18 to 30 have socialist views, and this is due to the bias in the public education system.  And about 20% of college students need remedial courses even after a "good" public education.  Parents need to realize that good sports programs and pretty buildings and fancy new programs do not matter when your kids wind up with a different set of values than you have - values attained through their indoctrination called "critical thinking" against traditional American culture.
