It must suck to be the person who has to nominate Paula Maes

Someone has to place Paula Maes' name in contention
for another term as the President of the APS School Board.

That poor soul will attach their name and reputation to the
recommendation that Paula Maes continue for another year
as the senior most role model for 90,000 of our kids;
in spite of the fact that she removed;

... in no case shall the standard of conduct for an adult
be lower than the standard of conduct for a student ...
from her own code of conduct.

That poor soul will attach their name and reputation to the
recommendation that Paula Maes continue for another year
as the senior most steward of the public trust and treasure
in spite of the fact that Paula Maes stands squarely
between the good ol' boys and an honest audit of their
conduct and competence as public servants.
That poor soul will attach their name and reputation to the
continuation for another year of the Maes Modrall dynasty;

another year of ethically indefensible litigation
at public expense and against the public interest.

another year of good ol' boys, good ol' boy rules, and
good ol' boy accountability.

What the hell,
it's only a billion tax dollars and 90,000 kids a year.

No big deal.


Worse than being the lackey that puts her name in nomination;
being the poor soul who then votes for her.

... that poor soul.
