The following email has been sent to the Richland 2 School Board:
Members of the board,
What's wrong with the first two paragraphs in The State's article, first published about May 8th and re-published today in the eEdition of The State on Page 6A at
The original article and the reprint say three board members were involved: 1. The board chair (reporting); 2. "another board member"; and 3. "one of her (the chair's) colleagues".
Is the RCSD report, on which that article is apparently based, correct?
Is that what Holmes told the deputy?
Did the deputy misunderstand Holmes?
Did the reporter misunderstand the RCSD report?
I urge you to open a formal public hearing into the April 28 meeting. Why has the District's Media Relations Department been silent? It certainly had a lot to say after the January 25th incident.
Was the executive session a legal closed session? The Motion was faulty. You can't go into a closed meeting for a "meeting". You can't meet privately to organize a Committee. Please get an expert opinion from someone entirely independent of the District.
To what extent, if any, did Holmes initiate the resulting conflict? Why did she laugh while Lashonda was speaking?
Why would Teresa call Lashona "honey"?
Why would Teresa taunt Lashonda with "Little girl, little girl, little girl"?
Why would Teresa say, “And what you gonna do, boo? So, what you gonna do? Do it! Do it!”
Why didn't Holmes immediately call a Recess?
Why did Holmes egg Mrs. McFadden on?
You can't pick a fight and then cry "Victim".
Trustee McFadden has made a genuine and heartfelt apology to Holmes and all.
Yet, there hasn't been a peep out of Holmes.
I urge you to remove Holmes as Chair immediately, even though only five weeks remain in the School Year. And certainly you should not elect her as an officer for the coming School Year.
