I'm glad Angelo is coming back to the District -- he is a great administrator.

It's too bad that the Usual Suspects are whining about it over on that other blog. Those people need to find something better to do with their lives than launching character attacks.

An unrelated issue - the sound quality on the BOE webcasts is very soft and poor. Can it be inproved?

Laurie said...

We have been working on improving the sound quality for YEARS (and I am not exaggerating) -- first for the TV broadcasts and now for the webcasts. I was told a new "fix" had been identified recently...I will find out what the status is.

I am sorry for the difficulty with sound. We really do want the public to hear every word spoken at our meetings!
