anti-David Parker Lexington "C.A.R.E.S." founders:
Who We Are
In May 2005, a group of Lexington Public School parents and Lexington residents came together and created Lexington C.A.R.E.S. We were concerned about the publicity and impact of David Parker's arrest at the Estabrook elementary school. We felt the media reports did not accurately portray:
Lexington's longstanding community values;
the commitment of our public school system to uphold these values; and
the real issues involved in Mr. Parker's demands.
Given the links between Mr. Parker and statewide anti-gay organizations, and the extended and well-planned nature of Mr. Parker's Estabrook campaign, we felt as if our schools and town were being used in a larger statewide campaign. Most importantly, the safe and inclusive character of our schools that we had worked so hard to build was itself directly under attack.
