In Your Opinion:  The BOE Numbers Game – FHS Students are Casualties 

May 10, 2014 Speak Out!

By John Felix, Somerset.

37th Day Term Superintendent; 608th Day FHS Principal; 20th Year BOE Officer 

On his 37th day as Interim Superintendent of the Franklin Township public schools, Dr. LeRoy Seitz – who returned to Education after a brief retirement – recommended to the BOE at its May 08th meeting that Mr. James Bevere, on his 608th day as Franklin High School’s 4th principal in 8 years, not be re-hired for the 2014-2015 school year. It could be argued that FHS students, staff and teachers experienced 7 leadership changes since 2005 if one considers the inclusion of previous Interim principalships of Mr. Orvyl Wilson and Mr. Ron Brundidge. Amazing!
