Grading Mr. Nathan

Kudos to the few LMHS Board Members that made Mr. Nathan's evaluation about performance and not about personailty and popularity (News-Press 10/3/2008). Shame on long time publically elected board member Linda Brown for coming across as a Jim Nathan apologist or lackey. Maybe it's time that the public understand that unlike other publically elected boards, the stipend that LMHS Board members receive are paid and provided by LMHS and not by the public that elects them. If the public wants a board responsible to them, then pay them and do away with the potential conflict. Maybe then Lee County won't have board members that act like LMHS employees.
