I have to say this forum is getting completely out of control. We are reading that the Upper Union Street Vendors are being approached, petitions are being left in their shops, and meetings are being held, for only the opposing sides. The discussion that is being held at the Schdy Library was not offered to "all people", only to the people that were opposed to this proposal. I am sorry that the public forum's, School Board Meetings, several other meetings and a survey wasn't enough for concerned parents to come forward. At these meetings, ALL were invited, and I don't believe anyone at these meetings felt "threatened or not heard. At the School Board Meeting at Zoller, Jeff Janiszewski, stated that he didn't want a "war", but, it seems to me, that this is now what is happening. Petition's being set up, meetings being held, alot of animoisty on this forum. There is a lot of accusations that are being thrown around regarding parents and faculty. Please take a step back, and realize that children see and hear many things. They also look up to you, whether you are a parent, or caregiver, and they believe what they hear, even if some of it is incorrect. The last thing we all want, is for our kids, whatever district they are in to become frightened and confused about all of this.
I am for the K-8 proposal, butI think that some of the underhandedness that is going on, is inappropiate, and it does need to stop.
Enjoy your week with your children, and stay safe!
