The November 2010 election for the St. Louis School Board continues the controversy.

Which candidates support charter schools and vouchers?

Who believes it was a mistake to outsource custodial work and food services?

Why have accreditation scores dropped since the State of Missouri took over St. Louis Public Schools?

Is the City targeting black teacher to be fired?

The lack of democracy strikes at both schools and the St. Louis police. Zaki Baruti of the Universal African Peoples Organization will address the need for local control of the police.

Delores Mills of the Concerned SLPS Retirees will moderate a panel discussion. The following candidates for the St. Louis School Board have been invited:

• Donna Jones

• William Monroe

• Donald Todd Evans

• Doug Petty

• William Haas

• Derek Craft
