DENMON Staff Writer Liz Sichler will submit her resig- nation as Lake-Lehman represen- tative on the Luzerne Intermediate 18 Unit effective June 30, 1989, she told the Lake-Lehman School Board at last Tuesday's meeting. “At the January meeting of the LIU board I suggested that all 13 members of the board resign effec- tive June 30 so the home school districts of each board representa- tive could have the opportunity to reappoint new ones if they de- sired,” Sichler said. “I believe there is too much poli- ticking going on at LIU especially in hiring: I will submit my resigna- tion at the March meeting of LIU but I will consider a reappoint- ment by Lake-Lehman if they feel I am the person they want on that board. It’s ‘ery important who serves on that board because we're talking about the special educa- tion of children. I wanted all of the LIU board members to resign and give their districts a chance to evaluate the work being done. I hope the other directors will follow my recommendation; it remains to be seen,” Sichler said. The board did not discuss Sich- ler's resignation at the meeting. District superintendent Char- les Borchetta reported that the 1990 budget is progressing quite well and the individual school budgets are being reviewed and should be completed by this week. He believes the administration will be in a position to present next Manufacturer's Special Until Mar. 2 SALE KraftMaid CHERRY Kitchen & Bath Cabinetry for the same price as oak! * 3 outstanding styles * 5 hand-rubbed finishes * Select from over 65 convenience features * Come in and get a quotation on a new KraftMaid kitchen or bath See our magnificent V4 Showroom Displays 2} Save Now! % mfg. 50% oF = .
