We're not in Syria or Iraq.
Who's running the show? Isn't that the purview of the elected Charleston County School Board of Trustees?
Don't get me wrong: maybe bullet "resistant" classroom doors are the wave of the future in CCSD, but shouldn't the Board have some input? You could hardly blame the seller, Tony Deering, CEO of Goose Creek-based R2P Innovations, and at least he's local, but still. Deering hasn't actually "sold" anything yet, but he's hoping to get a contract for all the district's doors at a price between $30 and $40 million by contributing this free pilot program. Who could blame him?
CCSD would be his first customer in the school market. However, since the project is "free," the School Board got blind-sided by Jeff Borowy, the district's Chief Operating Officer.
Surely common sense will prevail before $40 million goes down the drain. Well, maybe not, given the district's track record!
