He can&#8217;t defend himself. Let&#8217;s blame him.<\/p>\n<p>Duluth School Board Chairwoman Ann Wasson left little question about her blame after news broke Tuesday that the final pieces of the school district&#8217;s Long-Range Facilities Plan had expired and would need to be resubmitted to the state for re-approval. The inexcusable expiration posed a potentially pricey delay in starting construction at Congdon and Myers-Wilkins elementaries, the last two schools to be rebuilt or replaced before the oft-controversial long-range schools plan finally can be put in the past.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Clearly, (former) Superintendent (I.V.) Foster had chosen to stay away from the long-range plan,&#8221; Wasson said Tuesday. &#8220;He said, &#8220;That&#8217;s over. That was (former Superintendent Keith) Dixon&#8217;s deal; we&#8217;re moving ahead with education.&#8221; Some pieces were left behind and forgotten, and that&#8217;s what happened.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>scapegoat As in this accurate DNT Editorial appraisal of the Duluth School Board.
