Broward School Superintendent Runcie And Activist Clash Over Construction

Broward School Superintendent Robert Runcie would feel at home in an echo chamber, hearing only his own voice and those of his supporters.

That was made clear at the January meeting of the Facilities Task Force, a community group appointed to monitor school construction.

Runcie warned the board that he has little tolerance for criticism. He threatened that he would keep his staff away from the group’s meetings if they continued to be “adversarial.”

“I’m not going have staff come to these meetings like it’s some Inquisition,” Runcie snapped.

Runcie didn’t like how Task Force Chair Nathalie Lynch-Walsh was grilling his new construction chief Leo Bobadilla.

It was Bobadilla’s public introduction to Broward.

Some members of the task force were skeptical of Bobadilla before they even met him.
