Get your phone service from Verizon, not Duchy

I listened to the Bored meeting tonight. I guess they approved the purchase of Destiny but it's always hard to tell since all of the important or interesting stuff is always buried in the consent agenda which is the part they vote on without discussion. They did object to a bid for a school playground being rushed through and they did object to not being "properly briefed" on another item, there was apparently no objection to the "Resource Management System". So were they briefed on the "Resource Management System"? If they were, why was it a secret from those of us who will be working with it?
The Bored also did not discuss the fact that Tolson Elementary was without telephones all day yesterday and today. Yesterday the school was closed and the only person at risk was a TUSD employee. That was only a little lawsuit waiting to happen. However, today the school was open and children were at risk. (Much big potential for lawsuits.) Were the parents warned in advance so they could keep their children home? The office manager used a cell phone to call the T from TiTS and was told to turn in a work order and they'd get around to Tolson eventually. Guess Tolson should have gotten their phone service from Verizon (all of those people following you around, available to call 911 in an emergency) instead of from the T from TiTS.
