NO TALKING IN SCHOOL BUT THIS IS ABOUT SCHOOL



I CAN'T STAND IT. I'VE BEEN NICE TOO LONG! Ask any of my 3 ex-wives, I am not that NICE ( my current wife might say some good things if you don't bring up the cap on the toothpaste thing).

Where was the representation from LPS? I was there for ALL the speakers and only heard from CHARLIE GALLO from the LSC and he spoke more from personal experience and history than about the cataclysmic effects these proposed changes would have on the public school systems. I understand that RICK STARBARD and JOHN FORD participated as audience members taking the opportunity to educate themselves on the issue.

MISSING was DR. LATHAM or any of the COMMERCIAL STREET CROWD. The ramifications of these proposed changes will have multiple impacts, social, economic, and educational. We just heard how LPS is now mandated to be interested and involved in all matters that effect the student's ability to access education. That was the justification for hiring a new WRAP-AROUND person at 75K plus benefits a year, yet the administration was noticeably absent from the discussion on such important matters.

It goes without saying I urge you to contact ALL your elected officials on the impending devastation caused by these changes. HOWEVER, don't stop there. Contact DR. LATHAM and DEMAND to know why LPS failed to publicly proclaim the havoc these proposed changes would have on the student's of LPS.
