In regard to Mr. Watkins” letter to the editor which appeared in the Oct. 12 paper (“They have no business holding high office,” Readers” Views): I have to admit I am confused by the editorial policy of the Record-Bee. I seem to recall that in regard to the June election that the Record-Bee stated that they would not publish letters either supporting or not supporting specific candidates. They would only publish letters that dealt with issues.
I would like to assure parents and the community that any concern or allegation that is brought to the attention of our superintendent and the five members of the Konocti Board of Trustees is investigated thoroughly and handled appropriately. I am sure that everyone is aware that state law and education code forbid us from commenting publicly on any personnel issue.
I am extremely proud of the accomplishments and positive achievements in the Konocti District in the last four years. This has only been possible because the superintendent, the entire five-member board and all employees have worked hard to focus on students and what”s in their best interest.
