TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION – PICKERING PARENTS PUT OUT



On October 17 PICKERING PARENTS have an OPEN HOUSE which includes their FEDERALLY mandated annual TITLE 1 meeting. Should be informative, probably a GREAT night. It is sure to be a real opportunity to GET INVOLVED!

BUT…. WAIT A MINUTE.

Isn’t that the night they are having that meeting about building the NEW MARSHALL? That’s gonna cost the citizens almost 20 MILLION DOLLARS. That is ALL the residents of LYNN, not just the parents of the kids who go to MARSHALL; you know that new school with the WOTRING WING.

So some parents are going to be asked to CHOOSE between their parental obligations and their pocket books. The good thing is that this UNPLANNED (excuse me while I cough) coincidence will allow the administration to run roughshod since parental input will be caput.

Not only will PICKERING PARENTS pay presumably a pretty portion for the NEW WOTRING WING of MARSHALL (I figure if I keep repeating about the WW they might accidently slip the name in) they will also be unavailable to PREVIEW what could one day present itself as a possibility if the administration can keep PICKERING in the PIPELINE for renovation or construction so that they don’t TIME-OUT again this time.

    2. I see - interesting that they would schedule two meetings back to back.
