“Right now the only logical conclusion many of us can draw is that Dr. Lucabaugh is bringing in his friends and former co-workers with little to no oversight from the board. This smacks of cronyism,” said Nicole Lynch of Upper Southampton Township.
“I’m extraordinarily disappointed and angry that the majority of the board chose to ignore the very real concerns and wishes of their constituents in an apparent bid to further their own agendas,” said Nicole Lynch, a Centennial parent from Southampton Township.
“I am not buying his ‘I have changed, I blame the school board’ message,” said Warminster’s Nancy Pontius.
Some Centennial meeting attendees called out a federal complaint filed by the ACLU against Central Bucks and Lucabaugh’s actions, citing “discriminatory and punitive” policies directed at LGBTQ+ students “and their allies.”
