My buddy sent me an email surprised to hear that our employee, The Superintendent, was telling his bosses, the School Board, what they could and could not do. Well, someone kindly sent me the email and it turns out I was not told to withhold my letter after all. I was only advised to be careful not to violate data privacy laws.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Dear  Member Welty, <\/p>\n<p>I have  received your draft letter. Should you decide to disseminate this letter, I  recommend that it be revised taking data privacy laws and inaccuracies into  consideration.  This recommendation should not be considered as an  endorsement of your letter. <\/p>\n<p>Sincerely, <\/p>\n<p>William Gronseth Superintendent of Schools <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what Board member Art Johnston wrote back to the Superintendent:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The audacity of Supt. Gronseth to talk about  &#8220;accuracy&#8221; and &#8220;data privacy&#8221; is unbelievable. <\/p>\n<p>Is it really necessary to remind him that he has alleged that I assaulted him!!   Accuracy?<br \/>\nOr data privacy after Supt. Gronseth has done a reputation lynching on me?  <\/p>\n<p>I call on him to follow his own advice and drop his  accusation against me.  And he should reread the emails that his staff  (and maybe he) had been sending about my spouse Jane  Bushey. <\/p>\n<p>So Supt. Gronseth now wants us to be quiet after what he has done? And then he hides behind silence and his lawyer? <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Art is clearly wrong. The lawyer is the School Board&#8217;s not the Superintendent&#8217;s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I explained earlier that I&#8217;d been told the email I am still unable to retrieve myself warned me not to send my fundraising letter&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,35],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11259"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11259"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11259\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11261,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11259\/revisions\/11261"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11259"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11259"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11259"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
