Trick Play
This was a very sad evening for, not only me but for those from the community who are honestly trying to find an equitable solution for all those involved. It was also a terrible lesson in Civics and fair play for the young people who were involved in the meeting, as a list to sign up as a speaker was obviously passed around to students, parents, and teachers. Those of us from the surrounding community were not told that there was a sign up sheet. Approximately one and one half hours into the meeting, someone walked around asking if any of us wanted to speak. By then, the majority of people had left the auditorium. I blame the adults who were involved. They are supposed to teach fair play, not how to stack the deck. I am so disappointed in them. Any admiration I might have had for them has been severly tempered by this display. It was a loss for all of us.— March 22, 2009 8:33 p.m.
