The other was the suspension of a teacher who jokingly held a knife to a student's chest while cutting a cake in a classroom celebration.  Both the student and the teacher were both laughing hysterically when it happened, but word got out and people took it very seriously.

The big controversies in the past year regarding the school board was its rejection to ban the reading of a book that described a girl getting raped after a local mother protested.  The book was being read by 9th grade english students.  The school board agreed to notify parents ahead of time that the book was controversial and that an alternative assignment was available if they objected.

If it's the book I think it is, then that's pretty stupid. I read it when I was 8.
What book do you think this is?

Most likely the mayor is elected, just not by the people.  I know a lot of town's in NJ elect a council and then the council elects a mayor, similar to the parlimentary system
Okay. Thought that might be what he meant.
