Apple idea needed a bit more polishing

I understand that the entire $19,000 Peoria School District spending to promote itself isn't going toward those dumb apple bill boards, one of which rest atop the Beewolf meeting hall at the corner of Prospect and McClure across the street from my house.

But still, that's an odd way thing to spend money on when the district is planning to close schools, one of which is Glen Oak School, where kids in the Glen Oak Park neighborhood currently attend.

But then, these people don't strike me as having much of a clue when it comes to public relations. They are about to choose Double Talk Dave Ransburg, a notorious sayer of things that are not true, as a board member.
