Just as the Sheila Silver Revolution was about to ignite thunder, lightning and bring down a rainstorm of chastising rhetoric on the heads of the School Board, the Board made a screeching U-turn and melted tonight’s deliciously anticipated Board meeting into a bake sale for diabetics, as still as a churchmouse following runt rodent cavity surgery.
With Ms. Silver, the once and future Creative Director of the Theatre Dept. of the Academy of Visual and Performing Arts at Culver City High School, safely restored to her much-praised position, you can turn the volume down to Mute for the 7 o’clock meeting at Lin Howe School.
(The meeting was shifted south on Irving Place, from School District headquarters to the much larger accommodations at Lin Howe in anticipation of a blowout evening that unborn grandchildren would be chattering about in 40 years. But when the School Board reversed itself late Friday morning, according to the strictures of the 72-hours’ public notice rule, it was too late to re-switch venues back to the pocket-sized Board Room.)
Board President Scott Zeidman this morning renewed his several-times-repeated promise that a successor to former Supt. Myrna Rivera Coté will not be announced this evening.
