Letter to the editor: Shame on Norwin School Board
Bob Wayman said you should keep driving through a Black Lives Matter protest because they’re just “racist, communist thugs” (“Norwin director ripped over controversial posts; some call for resignation.” Bob Wayman said we should resort to armed combat to keep President Trump in office. Bob Wayman referred to Pennsylvania Health Secretary Dr. Rachel Levine as an “it” because he doesn’t agree with her. Bob Wayman said covid-19 is a hoax.
Bob Wayman continues to sit on the Norwin School Board. He is part of the decision-making process for over 5,000 students to safely return to school. He is part of the decision-making process for students who organized a peaceful BLM protest this summer. He is part of the decision-making process for students who are LGBTQ.
The district solicitor says the board has no grounds to remove a member unless it is for lack of attendance to board meetings. The board also has a policy that board members will adhere to principles that include leading responsibly and acting ethically. The board has a policy that its members first be of “good moral character.”
The Norwin School Board is sitting idly by while Bob Wayman spews hate and lies from a position of power and influence. Shame on them.
