Prom Styles

Plaintalker went to the Plainfield Public Schools web site Monday in search of an agenda for tonight's Board of Education meeting. According to a legal notice, the special business meeting will be held at 7 p.m. in the Plainfield High School library.

There was no agenda posted for tonight's meeting, but there was a rather lengthy slide show of students dressed up for the prom.

Having forgotten to go to the Plainfield Public Library today to look for a printed agenda, Plaintalker tried the web site again in the wee hours, but the latest available agenda was for the May 15 meeting.

It's a bit annoying to have a school district web site that doesn't help citizens find out what matters the school board will be discussing. Not everybody has the time to go to the public library and look for a printed copy.

Meanwhile, the prom photos seem to have been taken down off the web site. Too bad the agenda could not have been posted while somebody was in there.

On the city side, the stuck-in-time municipal web site that doesn't even have the new cabinet members hired in January is supposed to be fixed by June 30. We'll see.
