Christine Baronas: Questioning
06-18-2025 12:11 PM

Would a Trump supporter explain to me why, if the National Guard can be called out to protect ICE enforcement, why wasn’t it called out when the U.S. Capital was being attacked? He says he has the power today, 2025. He also had it in 2020 but didn’t use it when our nation’s Congress was overrun. It was a demonstration that got so out of hand that people did die. That leads to the question of what’s more important: ensuring the peaceful passage of a democracy’s power or making sure police can grab up criminals?


Deborah Potee: Superior Greenfield Public Schools leader
06-18-2025 12:11 PM

For anyone who was lucky enough to work with or under the leadership of departing Greenfield Public Schools Superintendent Karin Patenaude, the loss of her from this district is incalculable. Her high standards, work ethic, love for students and deep experience from being a beloved English teacher and highly respected administrator endeared her to staff, students and families in the district. To watch her talk to a quiet teen, a curious fourth grader, a distressed parent or a questioning teacher and see her treat each with understanding, kindness, respect and always an encouraging smile, is to see the very best that public education has to offer. Seen as a "teacher's teacher" by the educators at Greenfield High School, the spontaneous standing ovation that she received by the 900 people in attendance after her words of encouragement for the graduating class on May 31 spoke volumes of how beloved she is as our leader. Karin Patenaude set a standard that will be hard to fill, she will missed and I am grateful to have worked for her.
