If it were to have been only 1 teacher I would have taken my complaint to the principal, but it seems the school is not just behind the illegal protest, but encouraging it.
Man I should would like to know the names of these Teachers, yes sir,

I dont believe sending anything to the Globe will do any good. They only allow certain things to be printed about USD 443.. and those certain things should only be good. I remember hearing one time this school year about a teacher at Commanche school, but never read it in the Globe. We read in the paper about Gloria getting a new job somewhere else.. but nowhere did you read that most of the people in the district are thrilled that she is leaving.. and you wont.
I do not agree with the school district making tomorrow an excused absence for the mexican students unless they excuse the white students also. On one hand I believe all kids should stay home then and have a 3 day weekend, but then "they" win. So instead... my kids will go to school, I will go to work, I will shop and I will wear Red, White, and Blue.

You have got to be kidding me? They are allowing this as an excuse? I got suspended from high school for attending my friends funeral, and only missed two hours, and now this? Fukin bunch of bullshit.

OK, I got a response from the Hutch News. They would like a little more info. Since I have no children in school, I can't provide the info that is needed. Maybe Cain, or somebody else that knows, can provide the info that is requested. Here is the response I got along with the contact info. I sincerely hope that the people that can respond will do so, as I would like to see this crap that is going on in our city get reported and somebody gets called out on it.

Hi there. Got your e-mail and had a few questions:

I know the immigration matter has been the topic of classroom discussion,
here and everywhere. But kids are being encouraged to participate in
protests and skip school? And they're being told what to say about it? Are
they being told to support the protest, oppose it? Do you know kids involved
or teachers? Let me know. Regards, Tim

If people with the information needed doesn't want to contact him. They can PM me the information and I will make sure that he gets it. I beg anybody with info to contact either him or me so that we can expose what is happening in our school district.

I would hope that it was more than just hot air....at least some partial truth would be nice. People with knowledge of any of the allegations please contact me.
