Banning Cupcakes at school functions seems to be consistent with the bizarre and chaotic pattern of Klang. Mark Klang. Major Klang. Or, just simply Rocklin’s Dumpster Fire.
Klang.
Klang at public school board meetings actually proposed banning cookies and brownies at school parties (school board meeting, August 21, 2002)
Klang also proposed eliminating elementary open house night (school board meeting, May 7, 2003).
With regard to banning cookies and brownies, (based on a complaint from one parent – sound familiar nationally?) Klang directed district staff to study banning parents from bringing these to school parties.
Rocklin USD’s Staff spent hours on this ridiculous effort, thankfully all for nothing. (They recommended no change.) First, it’s ridiculous that a school district would outright ban cupcakes and cookies from school parties. Second, have you ever driven by an elementary school on open house night? There are probably over 1,000 parents at school for open house to see what their child has been working on the year.

Third – how much did Klang’s bizarre fantasies cost the taxpayers?

Could you imagine how much employment practices lawsuits would cost the taxpayers of Rocklin if Klang had his way with Teachers?

When there was a question about the appropriateness of an email from a Rocklin High School teacher due to its content, Mr. Klang, without investigation or due process, announced at a school board meeting that teacher should be fired. Since the media is obsessed with “Temperment” in an attempt to bracket people they disagree with, perhaps they should study a real tempermant problem, Mark Klang. He has the temperament of people we DON’T need in leadership anywhere near anything. We will get in to the 10/30/2002 Placer Herald Article in our next installment of the Tour De Klang.

In the mean time, your intrepid blogger is providing another copy of the letter community leaders sent out warning people to reject Mark Klang for Rocklin School Board. I mean, BANNING CUPCAKES? Really, Mark???
