Yes, but they probably won't be televised. 2 meetings ago when they had a closed session to meet with their attorney, they called the roll and had audience communications first, then left the board room for the closed session. Since I was the audience (no one else came that early,) I opted out.

I hope we have a good turn out tomorrow night. We need to show the BOE that we ARE NOT going away, no matter how many "PR" letters and articles are placed in our faces. What they did to our community was just really, really WRONG! So, until they decide to do what's really in the best interest of our kids we will be there in numbers. Last week's meeting I thought was really effective, especially, being it was a committee meeting. THE MORE THE MERRIER! Also, if you are up for it, please participate in the audience communications.

I just turned on the meeting and heard Holly talking about taking away art and I think vocal music. Was something announced earlier at the meeting? I thought that wasn't going to be decided until April.

The specials will be announced in April according to the LI link. I think she has incorrect information. I wonder what or who her source is/was. Linda Scheel asked parents to check out the LI link for the correct information.

The information provided in the LI is not conclusive to say what stays, what goes, or what is added?

Anyone listen the the boards comments at the end of the meeting? Freeman doesnt't care if he's recalled. He went on and on bad mouthing the parents who spoke tonite. The others were just as nasty.

I and my wife were watching.

I love his rationale for not answering question. Basically he said we would just use his words against him.

Does this mean that we have to give him our blind trust and obedience or else we are abusive?

If the board is so fond of democracy, then why don't they celebrate all this community involvement?

Apparently they all give lip service to democracy, but when push comes to shove it's thier way or the highway.


Mr. Freeman...............I think I see you exit coming up fast. ;)
