Reply #8: I'm not sure that qualifies as "even less"

disagreeing with a board member's spouse sounds about on a par with having school stationary on your desk. I think abuses can happen by administrators regardless of whether the administrator is hired by a charter or by a public school. Some people in positions of power are just power hungry asses. Proud2B seems (?) to be talking about a traditional school and I think tonysam's coming from a traditional school with a union as well.

Nepotism is widespread everywhere, from what I've seen. http://www.post-gazette.com/localnews/20030205nepotism0205p9.asp

(The stationary thing is exceptionally odd, btw - at our school they emailed out the blank letter head format to the staff in case we need it for student recommendations.)
