Sensitive to community wishes or pandering?

The following poll ran in the Baraboo News Republic earlier this month:
=============================================
Should the Baraboo schools hire an activities director?
Results:
Yes- 70 votes or 28 percent
No -180 votes or 72 percent
=============================================
WOW! Less than 30% of respondents didn't think buying our school district an athletic supporter was a good idea. Was the school board serving our community, caving to the vocal minority, or pandering to the parents of the "rich" kids?

Is this the first of many steps our board will take to mend our divided community as they promised they would, or just another bad decision to add to the pile?

Doomed.
