To the Editor:

I am writing about the land swap deal that DeKalb School District 428’s board is pursuing.  According to the district website, the board’s goals are to “Govern the school district. Continue to shape with the community a mutual understanding of the purposes of the school district. Communicate the goals and monitor the performance of the district. Select the superintendent. Oversee basic legal and ethical standards and responsibilities and to analyze its own performance.” 

What recourse does the public have if this group of elected board members is not living up to those goals?
