Dear editor:
I read with interest your article on the double-dipping school superintendent. This is being undertaken by retiring superintendents across the province. First they tell the board that experienced superintendents are very short in supply. Then they suggest that they can help out by retiring and contracting back their services, to work at the same desk they just left.
Several board members in Penticton tried to prevent this offensive practice from continuing in our school district but were unsuccessful.
Here's hoping the taxpayers of North Vancouver can see through the smokescreen.
