SCHOOL BOARD NOTES: From The Tonight’s Virtual Meeting
CHILDISH BEHAVIOR: Board of Education President Tom Corbia got into nasty arguments with his fellow school board members and then hastily left a public meeting before students, parents and others could comment about the racist social media posts that he refuses to apologize for.
TAX PAYER FUNDS SPENT: Tom Corbia maintains that his account was hacked, but refuses to cooperate with the board of education’s investigation and hired forensic experts.
HEY HO TOM HAS GOT TO GO: Most parents, students, residents and recent alumni say the horrible acting and nasty posting BOE President has no credibility and have repeatedly called for his resignation.
FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES: A majority of Port Chester residents are calling Tom Corbia’s actions “cowardly”, while others joked that he left the meeting early so he could be at the taxpayer funded job County Executive George Latimer gave him.
VERY PRIVILEGED: The school board’s ethics committee hired T&M Protection Resources to conduct the investigation and the school board also hired an outside law firm to manage the case, but Tom Corbia has suddenly remembered that he is too busy cooperate – because he apparently must focus on helping Mayor Fritz Flanka with the Municipal Housing Board.
NOT A PART OF THE SOLUTION: Many voters in the minority majority village are starting to criticize certain members of the board for “defending their friend.” and they will not forget their words in the future.
