Florida superintendent blogs and gets hundreds of comments

Blogging seems to be catching on in public school systems. A lot of the trouble getting started is from a lack of publicity, and a newspaper can certainly help!

We've been blogging (http://communityhigh.org) to some extent since 1998 on our student-run site and we've built a platform (http://arborspeech.org) for anyone local who wants to join. I know of at least one other school (http://www.qohs.org/) who has started this.

No such luck with any blog for the new stupidintendent in this school district in SW FL. So, I made a blog:

Thank you for stating what I’ve been thinking since receiving the Get a free blog at WordPress.com.

Today I had a run in with the superintendent of schools when my son had a problem at Mosley High School. I don"t know if any of the rest of the parents who send there kids to school in Bay County have ever met him but I came to the conclusion that he is one of the most arrogant, obnoxious, buttwipes that I have ever had the misfortune of meeting. He tried to treat me like I really should have cared who he was and when I did not, he flew into a rage and started yelling and screaming. He even threatened me with arrest because I was trying to leave and he blocked my way causing me to bump him.
I am not sure about the rest of you but this kind of behavior in a man who has control over our children 8 hours a day seems quite sketchy to me. I was taught that to get respect you had to give respect,something that this "man" does not seem to understand. Just because you have a title does not mean that you can treat the people that you are supposed to be helping like some kind of second class citizens. When I told the administrators that I was going to file a complaint, his response was, "Go ahead. I am the superintendent and it will come to me." Does this sound like a good superintendent to any of you. I was at the point of pulling my son from the school system and homeschooling him.Fortunately, husfelt has very good people working in his office and they showed me that I should not disrupt my sons schooling because of this incident.
I would like to hear from anyone who has had a similar problem with husfelt. After meeting and dealing with husfelt, I can't believe that I am the only one that has a problem with this clown. I really can't see how a man like him got elected, but lets see if we can correct that mistake by election time and show husfelt that he is a PUBLIC servant and that WE as parents are the PUBLIC that he serves.
Again, I would like any feedback from other parents out there that are concerned for the welfare of the kids who go to school in Bay County. I mean if he treats a parent who is trying to look out for his children like he did me, how good of a school superintendent is he???? NOT GOOD AT ALL BY MY STANDARDS!!!!
Please!!!! If any of you hard working parents agree, or even disagree, let me know so I can make an informed judgement as to whether or not I want to keep my son in a school system that is run by someone like husfelt!!!!!
