Busy week at Sweetwater school district
Steve Padilla should also be sure to attend all Eastlake High School football games. McCannt got a free commercial at half time. Supposedly he was out this morning in front of Eastlake High in a Vote for McCann tshirt. Isn't there a rock he can crawl back under somewhere?— September 8, 2014 6:35 p.m.
Quinones, Ricasa, Cartmill, Cabello weigh pleas vs. fighting
Brand and Cartmill have scheduled a press conference for Friday. I wonder if McCann will show up too?— March 27, 2014 7:11 a.m.

Chula Vista candidates declare intent to run June 3
In an earlier UT article Burt Grossman was also listed as a candidate. Has he already dropped out of the race? Or is he on vacation with Ed Brand trying to figure out a way to get on the school board? Heaven help us!— March 12, 2014 8 p.m.
Picket at Sweetwater trustee Cartmill's home
That is just so wrong in so many ways if it is true.— January 23, 2014 5:15 p.m.

Sweetwater teachers may strike over district policies
This is a quote from an article explaining the success of Trader Joe's. I couldn't help but notice the similarities. Most teachers can only dream of a salary like the superintendent's. *Places like Walmart and Papa John’s, one a retailer, the other a food service provider, both suffered and continue to take negative PR hits for paying low wages, “nickel-and-diming” employees on the issue of insurance benefits, and appearing to place the burden of economic change and demand on the backs of their workforce, all the more galling when company CEO’s are making multimillion dollar profits. Consumer good-will and the general perception of a business tend to take a beating when those at the helm come off as greedy, unethical, and denigrating of their workforce. Trader Joe’s, Costco and Quik Trip, on the other hard, have engendered loyalty and expanded their public good will with positive, worker-protective strategies that exhibit the importance they place on their most valued asset: the people working for and with them, whose skills and hard work are essential to a healthy bottom-line. And that is, after all, the goal of any smart company.*— November 26, 2013 6:21 a.m.
Sweetwater teachers may strike over district policies
"This is the same rate that has been agreed to by Classified employees and management employees." So, that is supposed to make it okay to break the contract with teachers?— November 25, 2013 2:17 p.m.
Teachers for Sweetwater district face insurance cost hike
As a teacher, a parent and a Mello Roos payer, I have never felt more disrespect than at a SUHSD board meeting. But I will be there on Monday!— October 17, 2013 7:48 p.m.
Sweetwater Union High School District Borrowing on Bond Funds?
I recently noticed that the minutes to the board meetings are no longer available. Where have they gone? An item on a recent board agenda asked for $1.5 million to fix an observatory at EHS. No one even teaches astronomy there...why do we need an observatory? Did the item get approved? How can the public know if the minutes aren't there. Talk about a waste of my expensive Mello-Roos dollars!— June 9, 2012 2:07 p.m.
