Ponder this...

The actions and behavior of Marly Mihok. Below are some example of what she had done and or said over the past few years.

Oct 2008- Attended a PSBA conference with Dr. Yonson. Dr. Yonson's expenses were $199. Mihoks expenses were $315. She has never explained the $116 difference.

-June 2008- voted to cut Dr. Yonson's contract from 5 years to 3 years.

-July 2008-In an email to Board president Bill Hellmann, said she would "never never, ever be responsible for any child because she is a school board member.

December 2008- is quoted as saying “This problem goes back years and years,” said board member Marlys Mihok, blaming the previous board for not putting money into renovations.One must remember she was a member of a previous board.

March 2009-Voted in favor of putting grades 4-12 under one roof. If you remember she ran on a platform against this very thing.

June 2009- Marlys voted to hire a "communications director" for up to $25k per year, while someone volunterred to do the job for free.

August 2009- Marlys voted against hiring an additional teacher for Kindergarten when it was desperatly needed.

-June 2010 Spearheaded a vote to strip Color Guard coach Donna Wilson's stipend by 75%

2007-2010- Marlys has voted to reduce the number of para-professionals in the schools, which has had a negative effect on test scores.

Upon taking her seat on the board in 2007, Marlys knew that M.R. Reiter was unsafe, and did NOTHING about it.

Marlys has also served as judge of elections while serving on the school board, a big "no no"

Marlys is also wrapped up in the process to sell M.R. Reiter for open space money. Did we mention that she also serves on the board of Summerseat?In the words of the late Irv Homer: "It's a land grab!"

During the time Marlys has served on the board, student enrollment has gone down.

During the time Marlys has served on the board test scores have gone down.

During the time Marlys has served on the board, she has cast a vote to raid, notice we didn't say borrow, from the district savings account to balance the budget.

Since the M.R. Reiter explosion and public hearing, as a board member, Marlys has never answered the questions from the public that were submitted at the hearing. By law the board is requried to answer these questions.We are now at 553 days and counting.

In summary Marlys has used her position on the school board as a bully pulpit to pursue an agenda of all those who disagree with her and her cronies on the School board.
