Dolton SD 149 to Hold Remote Meeting; Remove/Censure Board Secretary for Doing Her Job –

By John Kraft & Kirk Allen

On November 20, 2022

Calumet City, IL. (ECWd) –

Dolton School District 149 Board of Trustees published a meeting agenda of a remote meeting for 6:00 p.m. on Monday, November 21, 2022, via Zoom only (no physical meeting location).

There is no longer a legitimate health emergency necessitating remote meetings and this has the appearance of the board simply doing this to avoid public scrutiny should they hold an in-person meeting.

Two agenda items include removal of the Board Secretary for “failure to perform duties” and Censure of Board Secretary for “Violation of Board of Education Policy.”

They also plan on going forwards with appointing a new board member for the alleged vacancy of Rhayya Ghani (they improperly removed her from office without statutory authority).

We presume the removal and censure of the Board Secretary stems from her taking accurate minutes despite the board attorney, Edward James Wong III, of Del Galdo Law Group, wrongly attempting to direct her to take inaccurate minutes during the November 16, 2022, board meeting (see below video). School Board attorneys have no authority in a meeting.

    This school board like many local government boards in Illinois think they can do anything they want because no one has the money to take them to court i.e. sue them to enforce the law. Hopefully, this will not be the case this time.

    Dolton seems like an appropriate name for this place, as in the word dolt… I don’t like to call people names, but the definition seems fitting here…
    dolt, noun dolt
    dōlt

      Well, that description did seem to fit more than one person there.

    Time for “We the People” to be MORE engaged with those who “SERVE?” our community……leaving this “questioning and investigation” to the “Watchdogs” only reflects our failure to care that corruption is prevailing!!!
