#262013-10-14 21:27I am tired of these individuals imposing their minority non-traditional values on the MAJORITY of us who believe in family JudeoChristian values. I certainly don't want Wausau to turn into a "mini-Chicago" and I don't believe many others do, either. Let Kathleen Williams return to Illinois, where she came from. I don't want her ilk involved with our schools and young people! I am not happy with the school board for hiring her in the first place, and will not support any members who stand by her misguided beliefs. I support inclusion of other religious beliefs, however "Winter Break" is CHRISTMAS break! If that word and music referring to it is not to be allowed, then perhaps those who feel that way can work right through it. It is a paid "holiday" day for school employees...just which "holiday" do they think this refers to?? |

#282013-10-14 21:55There are PLENTY of qualified teachers already in the building and living locally within the district who would serve happily and dutifully as the new administrator while honoring traditional holidays as the residents of the area have been doing for generations. |

#33 Re: I REALLY wish this were written differently2013-10-15 16:15#20: Wausau Citizen - I REALLY wish this were written differently #20: Thank you for your comments. However, we’ll have to agree to disagree. We believe that there is indeed relevance in pointing out the fact that Dr. Williams, who still maintains a residence in Illinois as well as one here in Wisconsin, has an annual income of over $333,000 between the two states and is responsible for making decisions which affect the education of the children of Wausau area taxpayers. Contrast Dr. Williams’ income with the per capita income of a Wausau taxpayer, which is $20,227. A 2011 Chicago Tribune investigation found that crossing state lines is one of the most lucrative ways for retired superintendents to collect multiple government checks without breaking pension rules, according to salary and pension data. Across the border, the retirees are free to work as full-time public school superintendents and collect Illinois pensions. Dr. Williams has spent her entire career in Illinois and retired at age 61 in 2010 as the Superintendent of the East Maine School District, which is less than 20 miles north of Chicago. It is also worth noting that she applied for the Superintendent positions in the Oshkosh and Kohler School Districts in 2010 and was turned down by both of these Wisconsin districts. This information leads one to question the motives of a now 64-year old lifelong Illinois resident and whether she is the “right fit” for our district. In light of her recent actions, we now read between the lines regarding her 2010 statement to a Wausau Daily Herald reporter when she was hired in Wausau: “The big difference for me is that when you’re doing it post-retirement, the stress level is not there. You are doing it because you truly want to be there, and you are choosing to give up not working to be able to do what you love.” |

And this is the essence of the underlying problem within our school systems where values have been removed from education. And this is where you are wrong, and perhaps something you may have lacked during your own educational journey. Otherwise you would know that the foundation of education and academic advancement also requires instilling values and integrity into our children. |

#35 #332013-10-18 12:17I do not disagree with your logic at all. However, if the purpose of a petition is to get as many signatures to put on some pressure, then your missing out on many signatures. 200 won't do it. You need 2000. The signatures have stalled since you took this hard stance. I feel you are missing the point. |
