A blog developed to keep current on school board decisions in Sweetwater Union High School District "Freedom had been hunted round the globe; reason was considered as rebellion; and the slavery of fear had made men afraid to think. But such is the irresistible nature of truth, that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing." --Thomas Paine, Rights of Man, 1791

thanx--
I am so proud of the Sweetwater community. So many people are getting involved, at personal risk, in trying to turn the tide of fear and disrespect that currently grips our district. I believe that goodness will prevail. We have to keep going strong and advocating for what we believe in. There is some evidence that the letters, phone calls, petitions, no confidence votes, etc... are making a difference.
Distribute this blog to as many people as possible. We need to reach out and let everyone know there is something they can do. We are not powerless, there is definitely strength in numbers.
The machinations of our superintendent are nothing less than a coup attempt. With a mere two years in the district serving "our" students, he is arrogantly and capriciously displacing persons (mostly WOMEN) who have worked for decades to improve education and provide a path to success for ALL the students in our district. This is done to promote his loyal cronies and ensure that his plans will be approved. The fact that the school board approved this plan 5-0 is frightening and makes me wonder who is watching out for those of us who have endured through the years, always giving our best for our students and colleagues. The decisions he has made are morally, ethically, and educationally unsound, and will end up costing our district dearly - in terms of lawsuits, lost personnel, and, saddest of all, the lost energy of professionals who are forced to work in this atmosphere of fear and confusion.
Is this the same Dianna Carberry that fired coach James "Ted" in Escondido for reporting that Dianna's husband told a student to take a substance, and the student developed kidney failure?
I meant to write James "Ted" Carter.
