Guest guest Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 That video was AWESOME...YouTube is a whole new world for all of us. It is there for the world to see. Those kids should be so proud of themselves. I feel safer and more confident of the next generation just from that production. I am not surprised that the kids were intimidated. School people can be real snakes. Lots of dirty dealings from the top to the bottom of the school system. Those kids learned a real lesson in First Amendment rights and speech rights and those kids who could not participate but were there in spirit, also felt the sting of being deprived of their First Amendment rights. It is a lifelong lesson. Bravo! julesyost <julesyost@...> a écrit : My family and I have felt as if we've been on an island by ourselves in this mold battle for two years. We aren't completely alone any longer. There are seven families involved now but most of the people are very apathetic. I cannot wrap my brain around this; the apathy and " this won't happen to my child " so I'm not getting involved kind of parent. Probably 98 percent of the parents were unaware of the true condition of the school,but now they know because of media coverage. There were not more students at the protest because the administration and the athletic coaches threatened all athletes they would benched and NOT be playing their sport if they participated in the protest. What is really ironic about the coaches is that their particular hall/olassrooms have some of the worst mold conditions in the school. All students were threatened with out-of-school suspension. There were still more than 80 brave, courageous students who took the chance and participated. I thank them from the bottom of my heart for their bravery and show of care and concern. They were the smart ones. This school administration in this school district is beyond comprehension. I've never seen anything like them, although I know from information on this website, there are FAR too many of their kind out there. > > > > , it's called apathy.
