Molly needs our help.......

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone, a call for help..........

Molly is my 10 year old daughter. She has been out of school since last

December.

She desperately wants to return. Her doctor will not release her to go back

to school

until the school is environmentally safe for her.

Roundup is the big fight right now.

There is only one elementary school that has not been sprayed with what looks

like

roundup to me. The edges of the sidewalk, around the perimeter of the

building,

around the fence line, around the peremeter of the playground equipment,

under chairs

and tables is all brown. The grass around the brown dead grass is brilliant

green.

When my attorney confronted the school's attorney and the Superintendent, both

have denied using roundup. They laughed and said what proof do I have other

then some

brown grass.

They are demanding that Molly be returned to school this fall or that I home

school her.

The fight is on........Will you help me and Molly?

So my questions are:

What else could produce dead brown grass, as if it were sprayed with roundup?

Is there a way to tell if round was used or something else?

I was thinking that I could find out how much roundup was purchased this

spring

and then find out how much is left now. The school stops spraying roundup

the end

of July. I do not know how I can get this information at school. Can

someone

tell me how to access this information. What specifically would I ask for?

Thanks for you help. Maybe with all of our efforts, we will be able to get

Molly

back in school at the one school left open.

Molly is really depressed and wanting to be with her friends at school. She

likes school.

Thanks for helping Molly,

Jeanne

take photos of each one, time stamp on them

note where each photo is taken

someone with protective gloves could gather a sample and send it to be

analyzed

discuss this with your atty.
