    Go to the polls and don't elect him. You are an idiot if you vote for this piece of s***.

    Will someone who works at LCS please explain why they have another new assistant superintendent, 2 student activities directors, a media person plus a media consultant from Jacksonville and an advertising firm here in Tallahassee. Where is all this money coming from is what I would like to hear..

    He threatens anyone interested in running against him so we are STUCK with him. 4 more years of him will take out LCS Incredibly sad. He doesn't need donations. Chris Petley takes care of promoting him on LCS time and money. Take a look at "Around the District". Do you see anything happening besides Rocky Hanna?

      Yes, I see lots happening. It is also commonsense to expect Rocky to be "around the district" as he is the leader. Kids LOVE it when he visits. Get over your hate.

    Sorry parents. You are going to get four more years of Hanna. No one will challenge him. He has bought off the local Libs and they are returning the favor. Sad future for Leon County Schools. Do not expect any changes on the School Board either.

    Doesn't matter how much money he raises, the voting public to kick his A$$ to curb! Okay folks don't let my prediction become EGG on your face! Remember the first day of school debacle and he alone CONTROL the purse strings for Construction contracts....PAY "donation to campaign" to PLAY "contract award"!
