OUR VIEWS Wysocki our pick for school board XVhen Tom Wysocki ran for the Plymouth-Canton school board the first time, in 2001, the district was get­ ting ready to open a new elementary school (Dodson) and a third high school (Plymouth), and we felt at the time Wysocki was the best suited of four inexperienced candi­ dates to take the open seat Four years later, the distnct is getting ready to build a new elementary (near Cherry Hill Village) and still faces the same financial roadblocks it faced four years ago And we still believe incumbent Tom Wysocki is the best candidate in the race for the one open seat available in the May 3 election Wysocki had a very short learning curve to work with when he first came on the board, with major decisions to be made But Wysocki managed to learn quickly and has become a leader, chairing the dis­ trict’s policy committee and being elected the board’s vice president Funding issues will be pre-eminent on W yso cki the district’s “to-do” list again, particularly with negotiations with several unions, including a wage re-opener for the 1,000-member Plymouth-Canton Education Association, on the honzon Wysocki’s background before he got on the board helped make him an attractive candidate He has been president of the marching band boosters, one of the dis­ trict’s biggest, most visible and — most importantly — most effective support groups LETTERS While his knowledge of and propensity for fund-raising I can t think of any administrations Organic cities provide places to live, to haven’t produced tangible solutions to the district’s Pope great leader “spin mastery better than during the work, to shop, and to recreate money troubles, they do give Wysocki an edge in under­ The world has lost a great leader Pope Clinton years There are always two sides The hundreds of municipal subdivi­ standing the district’s predicament John Paul II was a man of incredible wis­ to every story During the Democratic sions that compose the Detroit metro­ Meanwhile, with a kmdergartner at Gallimore dom and courage His moral compass years of the White House — you, the lib­ politan area are not organic cities They Elementary School and three more at home, challenger and message of peace, the sanctity of eral press — were m your glory Now — are statutory cities They were created and political newcomer Emily Florence certainly has a human life and of helping the poor and you, the liberal press — don t like a lot of under a 19th century concept of local stake m what happens m the district disadvantaged never wavered things that you hear because you don t home rule She has a general grasp of the issues — state funding, His life was a testament of his moral agree The city of Detroit once was an organic election costs and quality of education — and a sincere convictions His passing is both a time of What’s the difference between ‘slanti­ city but is no longer, because of the desire to become part of the district A stay-at-home sadness and a time of celebration His ng news’ favoring either the liberal or extensive migrations that have weakened mom who volunteers at Gallimore, Florence says she has legacy will not only endure, but will the conservative side’ It’s just as biased it It is now a statutory city like the oth­ a “passion for education ” grow either way ers What we have succeeded m doing It’s wonderful when residents of the district take an Mike Gerou You talk of 19th century journalism has been to assign the responsibility for active interest in the district, and there are certainly C a n to n being either wholeheartedly Democratic maintaining our most expensive institu­ enough PTOs, boards and committees on which Florence or Republican — what has changed?
