Mehlville School District CFO Demoted

I'm sure the Call has been trying to keep a lid on the current budget crises at Mehlville in an effort to support Karl Frank, Jr. for re-election. But the pot just boiled over last night. Word on the street has it the board voted 4 to 3 to demote their Chief Financial Officer due to the district's budget crisis.

Things are bad and they should have seen it coming. It was great politics to give everybody a 6 % raise last year, but what board doesn't ask for a couple of year's projections?

Let me just say this: Karl Frank, Jr. needs to resign and withdraw from the election. If he really loved our schools and wanted them to succeed, he should put the children's needs before his own.
Should Frank win and the district go out for something before the voters, there's no way they can respect the board after what he's done in his own personal bankruptcy and putting the district on the same path.
Karl, quit for the kids!
And let me ask you, have you heard anything about this other than here?

Didn't Karl make the motion last year to give the 6% increase?

I don't think so

Yes, 3/26 6:20
Karl Frank, Jr. made the motion that they all get a 6% raise. Tom Diehl seconded the motion.
