Conclusion of the letter:

You are on notice that our client wishes to exercise his clearly established First Amendment rights. As such, any further action taken by you or other school officials to infringe his rights will be action taken in deliberate indifference to those rights. Please notify my office by close of business on Wednesday, November 22, 2006, that Millbrook will permit Mr. Raker to distribute flyers, wear expressive clothing, and organize a pro-life club with equal access to school resources. If we fail to hear from you by that date, we will advise our client of his options for relief in Federal Court. Please contact me if you have any questions regarding the above.

That was a great letter, wasn't it?

I wonder if they'll hear back from the school?

Sorry to have posted and left. Busy Saturday outdoor work.

Some excellent points:

I agree, school uniforms would solve much of these problems.

Also serious discipline and a real non political no nonsense curriculum program are a must. But that ain't happin' folks!

What seems to be happening at an accelerating rate is what Blue_Ridge_Mtn_Geek posted in 17.

My sister in law teaches 5th grade public 1 hour N of Atlanta. She's getting scared for her physical safety, and that's a "good" public school.

In the big cities it's a freepin war zone.

I heard a radio show 2+ years ago where the host read 10 questions from an 8th grade final exam from the year 1900. It was beyond tough.

Public school was outstanding then and remained so probably into the 60's in much of the country.

In the last 30 years it has collapsed into a pit. In another 30 years it may be Mad Max X: The School Warriors.
