Cobb board votes against censuring peer

Cobb County’s school board voted 4-3 against censuring board member David Banks Wednesday. Board member Kathleen Angelucci proposed censuring Banks for entering schools without administrators’ permission and sending false information in his newsletter during this summer’s Post 5 board race. “It is a sad commentary on the state of our school district when ethics and protocol are not reinforced or expected,” said Lisa Hanson, Banks’ opponent in the race. “I believe that the people in Post 5 and all those in Cobb County deserve better from our elected officials.”
