What Is Happening At The Elkton School?
What is happening that seems to have turned a once well run jewel of a school into one that now seems filled with frustration, anger, confusion and morale that is spiraling downward?
There is much talk of serious leadership problems at Elkton that has led to this problem. I have been contacted anonymously with some of the specifics but I will not post those statements until I can put a name with the statements.
Please understand if you would like to contact me about this matter and to discuss specifics our conversation and your identity will be held in the strictest of confidentiality and security.

Perhaps you are smarter than I thought. Of course, you'd better be careful with this. You can be sued.
From what I hear about the school, some teachers are upset because the new principal runs a tight ship.
Do you really need to get this stirred up? Why?
I was at the school almost daily until it got to be such a mess now I no longer go there except to pick up my children.
If it's a tight ship then the principal is Capt. Bligh. I have never seen someone in public behave as he does. Screaming at teachers, threatening and continually putting them down in front of others, students on the other hand are never corrected by him they do as they please and teachers are blamed. It has become so chaotic teachers no longer feel they have any control. Almost constant faculty meetings are just repeats of previous meetings and have become outlets for the principal to express personal paranoid thoughts about teachers. Teachers in adjoining rooms are no longer allowed to stand by their doors between classes and talk with each other, this has led to total chaos in the hallways.
I only know what my kids come home and talk about and they keep saying the same things "that school is messed up".
In any situation when change occurs, there will be those who disagree with changes that are made. Unless you are working there on a daily basis and doing your job there, this is an in-house discussion. Sounds like some people need to look for another job and get out. Those who complain become a cancer to the school and its morale. As the old saying goes, one bad apple will ruin the barrel.
8:50 And I will carry that a step further and suggest that the very purpose of this thread was to stir up trouble. Why is the Elkton School situation ANY of barrett's business to begin with?
I have spoken with several teachers about this. They say he is Little Napoleon. The moral at the school is in the pitts. He runs the place like a dictatorship. He does not know how to handle teachers or parents but says he has the children's interest at heart. If your teachers are miserable they are not going to be doing a good job. The principal needs to rule firmly but fairly and needs to have people skills.
I think Barrett has as much right as anyone to be concerned about what's happening in the schools after all we taxpayers are paying the bills. More people need to be concerned and maybe there wouldn't be so many problems.
10:01
So I will concede that you are right. Having said that, why isn't he reporting on a HUGE story that just broke here in Pulaski? He knows all about it. Why? It's going to come out anyway.
If there is a huge story why don't you tell us what it is? Why wait for Barrett to break the news?
I have spoken with Mr Barrett on the phone about this very thing 8:04. His response was unless he was a direct witness or until he can put a name on the information provider and confirm it he will not print it.
As for this particular situation he said things that involve underage children are dealt with differently.
I predict this situation will blow up and there should be heads rolling.
What is this HUGE story, BlueGill going tom run again after being out sick so much?
The post of 8:04 made me think of little children playing. "he he I know something you don't know hehe I know something you don't know."
He knows what the story is, and it has nothing to do with Mr. McGill.
Did anyone hear a HUGE story on WKSR news today?
I think someone told why Barrett said he wasn't posting it. But that don't please cg.
12:44
Wait til it breaks.
When will it break, will it flood or burn down the county?
If you are hinting the McAlister trial is coming up, that wouldn't be a Huge story as everyone knows it will come up sometime.
4:56
You need to ask Mr. Barrett about that.
Why not McAlister or the Pulaski Police department 5:53?
5:58 Yes, ask them. I don't know.
8:04 Now you want Mr. Barrett to tell about a huge story that has broke in Pulaski. Why, so you can say something hateful about Barrett for telling it. That is your usual way.
I don't care about it. I thought you were the one so concerned 6:03 but you always single out Barrett. Why do you never bring up the others involved in the case?
9:06
He needs to go ahead and break it then. Isn't that what this blog is for...to keep us informed?
School board members have received 3 anonymous letters. Sad people won't speak out. Must be something going on or there wouldn't be to much being said. Gonzales got placed at Elkton so Richland wouldn't be getting him. Of course he jumped up Tee's butt so he gets his payback by getting a principal job. God forbid Mike becoming next Director.
8:04 started it, but don't have the balls to tell what it is.
10:12
If what I heard (hearsay)is true, I just think a "newsworthy" blog should keep us informed on ALL local developments. Would you agree?
Since you post on here 6:42 why do you not contribute with a story? And if you feel "newsworthy" sources have a responsibility to inform you of all local developments why do you not take it up with the local radio stations and newspaper about their poor coverage or no coverage of local events?
I think this blog has helped greatly in covering subject matter and apparently in the proper way since Barrett has never been sued for libel. Would you not agree?
Barrett has stated his reasons for not posting this story and is responsible in his posts, so I do not think your little jabs are going to push him into being irresponsible. Don't you agree?
6:42 Since you heard something why do you not post what you heard? It is as much your responsibility as Barretts since you choose to be a part of this blog.
8:27 (8:30)
Look, I'm not the editor of this "free-speech" newspaper and therefore have no responsibility to report anything to anyone. However, I do feel that responsible journalism and news reporting demand that breaking news stories be shared with the readers.'I don't think you and I are talking about the same story. We shall see.
Then why don't you tell us what you heard? Barrett might not be informed of the breaking story that you know.
Have you contacted the local paper or the radio stations in regards to your feelings on how they should operate or are you happy with all their breaking news? Maybe you have come to expect more from this blog in obtaining relevant news in regards to the local radio and newspaper? I think it is great that you put so much trust in Mr. Barrett in bringing you breaking news.
My feeling are if you know a story and your post is demanding some one else do what you can do yourself then why write any thing?
As blog moderator I do not feel Barrett's responsibilities fall into the category of editor. Maybe you are just confused and do not know the job description of an editor. In fact if you read you see Barrett listed as contributor and not editor.
But since you have a breaking story why do you choose not to share it with your fellow citizens or are you being responsible like Barrett is in his reasoning for not posting the story you seem to know but are to afraid to write about?
Never mind you told us you are not a contributor. It is obvious you are here just to throw stones and cause trouble.
10:35
He knows the story.
10:55 PM Excellent post!
7:15 I have no idea what the story is, but could it be one you might get in trouble if you posted and you want Barrett to get in trouble. Some things can't be told. So you have a secret the rest of us don't know. Good for you.
Why has WKSR not told it?
If it doesn't come out in Al. news WKSR won't report it. We don't have news we have the Noon Report.
On Thursday, April 05, 2012 8:04:00 AM someone posted a HUGHE story had broke in Pulaski and wanted to know why Barrett hadn't posted it. I haven;t seen anything on WKSR or in the paper about it. Why didn't they tell about it.
Was someone just trying to stir up trouble or did something happen and it get sweep under the rug like so much does in Giles County?
2:44
You seem to be the one trying to stir up trouble. Important stories should never be swept under the rug.
3:37 Then why has it not been told?
April 5, 8:04 is the one first said something about it. Was that you 3:37?
5:08
Nope.What difference does that make anyhow?
3:37 You said important stories should never be swept under the rug. Why was the HUGE story not told. Must not of been as Huge as someone thought.
9:48
It's huge.
The only thing(s) that is(are) huge in Pulaski are some rear ends at Wal-Mart
5:47 So it's been swept under the rug if it's huge, it's not being told.
Guess the tax assessors drunk driving
wasn't swept under the rug, or the many lawsuits filed against the county or the assault by a commissioner against a citizen, or the hiring practices of the Finance dept, or the misuse of hosp. money, problems at the school bus garage I first learned about these things on this blog and a lot more. Without the things told on this blog there is a lot of stuff that would be swept under the rug.
Without this blog we would never have known about this.
12:04
So why can't all newsworthy events be posted on this blog?
12:43 Why don't you call Mr. Barrett and ask him?
I understood children were involved in this so call huge story and it a different ball game, children from adults.
My opinion was the one first posted about the huge story was hoping to get WAB in trouble. She got fooled.
I'm sorry but the blog is basically a one person operation and every time something in my real life comes up that interferes I have to ignore the blog. I try to cover as much as possible but with only two "spies" in the courthouse and eleven in the school system it's kind of hard to keep up. Besides that my typing speed would dazzle a dead snail but nothing else.
Seriously it takes a lot of work to report and give opinion that's accurate and timely.
wab
Then report ALL the news so that Giles Countians may be fully informed.
4:32, this is a blog. People discuss whatever the blog owner chooses to discuss. He can choose all of the news, some of the news, or none of the news. He also can do any combination of the above. He can also delete any post that he chooses to for any or no reason. That is the meaning of a blog and blog ownership. If Mr. Barrett isn't printing enough news for you, by all means, email him what you know and can PROVE. My guess he will probably post yours news item, provided you have reliable sources. However, never having met Mr. Barrett, I can assure you he is a more patient man that I am if he leaves your post on HIS blog ORDERING him to put a topic of your choice online. Not only would I not comply with your order, I would delete every post you submitted. Your arrogance is appalling and I just have to ask, since you are so smart, why not start your own blog and "report ALL the news so that Giles Countians may be fully informed."
9:03
NOBODY I know of has "ordered" barrett to do a thing. If I could, I would order him to shut this thing down and maybe even tell him to move to Australia. But you see, neither you nor I do have such powers.
You would delete every post I submitted? Wow! Please explain how that would be consistent with the name of this blog.
I have neither the time nor the inclination to start my own blog. However, I just think all newsworthy events should be reported here and particularly since keeping people informed seems to be the primary reason this blog exists. Right?
4:32 post is clearly an order. Yes if I owned the blog, I would delete all of your posts, or anyone else's that did not stay on topic or spouted off inconsistencies or whiny child-like rants. Nor would I let someone slander a private citizen. If a private citizen's name came up, the poster and all responders would have to provide facts, not feelings. Public officials willingly put themselves in the public eye and should be prepared for scrutiny and critiscim. (I have no idea how to spell that word!) I do not know Mr. Barrett, therefore I do not know the primary reason for this blog as you seem to know. I have an opinion, but no way to prove it. If you are unhappy with the topics, rules of posting, responses, or the lack of "ALL" the news, you have a couple of options: 1. Don't read the blog anymore 2. Don't post any responses anymore 3. Start your own blog and make your own rules.
It is so hypocritical to say you would order him to shut the blog down. If you are correct in all your asinine assumptions, the blog would die a natural death if you alone simply stopped posting. The blog shutting down is NOT something you want, not if one goes by your behavior rather than your words. And one last thing, personally I feel that hoping someone would move away and expressing those desires publicly in a negative light sounds like you are trying to embarass and humiliate a brother in Christ. As I previously posted, just an unbiased observation.
i have seen the results of people trying to order Mr. Barrett arounmd and it didn't turn out good for those thinkingh they could order and have it done.
4:32 Have you called WKSR or the local paper and asked them why they haven't reported your huge story?
I guess they are waiting for Mr. Barrett to post it.
Maybe it just gossip going around town.
10:03
Wrong. Nobody ordered barrett to do a thing. It was merely a suggestion that all news be reported.
It was an order. I suggest you read your own posts once in a while. Typically you ignored EVERYTHING else. I proved you a liar on holding officials feet to the fire, name calling, humiliating or attempting to embarrass private citizens and Christians, and called your bluff on your alledged desire to discuss real issues. My work here is done. Let the adults talk please!
A beautiful day like this and people are on the blog. Maybe you are like me health want let you get outside and mow the lawn.
4:32, If a superior officer said to you, "Then clean that mess hall so the entire squad may eat without catching food poisoning", would you think that was just a suggestion? If you declined, I'm sure his next suggestion would be to escort you to the brig.
3:27
Are we comparing apples with oranges here? Of course an order from a superior officer must be followed.
4:32 Why don't you tell us the news before you bust?
3:27, The keyword in your response "order". I was referring to the way you phrased your comment that you said was not an order. You just admitted it was and not a suggestion. You can't have it both ways.
BTW, since I'm sure that you will argue, I'll make it easy to understand. Your comment,"Then report ALL the news so that Giles Countians may be fully informed".
My comment,"Then clean that mess hall so the entire squad may eat without catching food poisoning".
Now, if you would be so kind, please tell me how one can be a suggestion and one an order.
I've read many of your posts on here and you seem like a very intelligent person. It's not necessary to always say something is white just because someone else says it's black. I'm not trying to be smart or pick on you or anything like that. I'd just like you to step back and see if you get my point. Respectfully yours in anonimity, Anonymous.
10:09
Look, I don't know how to make it any plainer than I already have. I know the difference between an order and a suggestion. Can you imagine ANYONE in Giles County trying to give allen barrett an order?
I appreciate your statement that you are not trying to be smart or pick on me. However, I need you to understand that I don't argue that something is white just because you might call it black. Hopefully, I left that immaturity behind long ago.
7:10 Why don't you tell us what the big or huge story is? I don't think it's ever coming out on the radio or local paper.
Barret has already told someone he didn't know enough about it and when it deals with children it's handled different.
He knows.
10:59 Are you saying it's about WAB?
1:45
I never said that? Why would you think so?
Is this "huge" story about Elkton school or another school in this county? If not, then can we get back on the topic please?
I think it is funny that some one has acquired some news through gossip and is bragging they know a big story?
If this person does in fact have some news that effects the tax payers of Pulaski and watches as it is swept under the rug; isn't that enabling those who are doing wrong?
Just wandering.
If the story is what I heard, the person wanting it told should be a shame of their self.
5:41
When it finally does leak out, I think you may be very surprised at who will be ashamed. However, I think it's largely gossip and rumor at this point.
I think you are right it's largely gossip and rumor, seems like Giles County is good at that. Gossiping.
Another letter to School Board Members, but know signature. Doesn't mean a thing. Need voices to come forward. Don't be afraid speak out.
Sounds like that is the big story.
10:04
Not even close.
Heard some gossip this morning, so this is the thread for the huge story to be on.
Everyone thought it was going to be on WAB, disappointing.
I would be very careful about talking about the huge story. Better be sure you can prove what you heard is true. I understand why WAB didn't post about it. Someone wanted WAB to get in trouble is why he kept saying something about WAB should post it.
Why must one be careful when nothing has been divulged by the person who claims to have heard the hearsay? I have heard some pretty fantastic gossip lately, but I would NEVER reveal it on this blog. I figure whatever is truth will come out, and I am keeping my yap shut. I don't think an individual has to prove anything as long as he/she is not out repeating it. That's where libel comes in.
5:55 That's the point don't divulge it.
I've read a lot on this blog bragging there is a huge story and WAB should report it. It had people wondering what it was.
7:52
Exactly. That's why my pledge is to keep my mouth shut. All I heard was just gossip. It's huge if it's true is all I can say. And I have not spread that gossip anywhere.
That's the right thing to do.
9:50 I just pray what I heard isn't so.
One blogger said that people needed to get out of the school and find another job; that one bad apple ruined the whole bunch. That's similar to what teachers were told...get on board, or they could find another job or retire. Another blogger said to speak up-not to be afraid. Teachers might except for the possibility of repercussions. The old saying of "where there's smoke, there's fire" is often true.
Sunday, April 15, 2012 2:06:00 PM
Because someone, probably you keeps saying he knows and he should report it.
Can someone at least say if this "huge" story has anything to do with our school system? If so, which school?
Actually we were told to get on board, transfer or retire. You would not want to speak up to him. He is a little Napoleon, his way or the highway. He knows nothing about elementary school, this is just a jumping point to the directors chair.
My daughter is a teacher and some of the things she says about what's happened at Elkton is almost unbelievable. The teachers are treated with so much disrespect specially in front of students but he's afraid to correct stuudents and they do as they please.
Richland has new principal.
Who is new principal? I heard the Elkton could not have lunch hosted by PTO for education appreciation week. I guess he does not appreciate his staff.
Who is it going to be?
From what I hear, Elkton was not a good place to work before Dr. Gonzales got there. Too much back-biting among the teachers. So sad.
The huge story must have died it never came out.
It will eventually.
The principal at Elkton Elementary School is a well educated, thoughtful individual who has the future of our kids well in mind. I have seen firsthand the discipline issues that exist in every school across the nation dealt with in the appropriate way at Elkton. I feel safe knowing that Dr. Gonzales is at the wheel, and I personall support him.
Karen
Thank you for the post.I am in agreement with you.
The principal is well educated. He has only been in education for about 10 years. He does not know enough about running an elementary school since he has never been in elementary education. He does not play well with others. He definitly is not a people person.
7:04 Prediction is he will be the next Director of Schools for Giles county.
7:51 Time to vote for new school board members isn't it. At least talk to your school board member.
Will Gonzales listen to a teacher or does he act like he did when a school board member refuse to let anyone speak. Didn't he loose his vote to be a school member?
Isn't it about time we got back to persecuting Mrs. Vanzant, Mrs. Garner, and the seventh district commissioners?
I think the Director of Schools should be voted on instead of appointed!
8:54 Are you the christian gentleman?
Sure sounds like him. Maybe ypu just wanted others to think it was him.
I'm sure if the 7th district commissioners or vanzant or garner does anything else it will be discussed.
8:54's Statement was catty and childish .
Catty but truthful.
6:23 Best post I've seen on this blog.
Looks like the Huge story got swept under the rug. How long has it been since someone was so hot because WAB didn't tell it?
He knows it.
8:50 I except you saying WAB knows it. It's not his place to tell it.
There must be a reason he hasn't told it. Did you ask WSKR or the paper why they don't tell it?
Could the reason it hasn't come out be they are still collecting evidence?
Or was the story what came out in the paper about the 80 year old McAllister man the huge story? That seemed pretty huge to me.
9:42
What did it say about Mr. McAlister in the paper? Could you share that?
7:48 It was on WKSR yesterday. Go to their site and read it. It was NOT Clay McAllister.
WKSR:
TBI Arrests Giles County Resident
Posted on May 02, 2012
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has arrested a Pulaski,
Tenn. man on several sex charges after information was developed this week about male and female juvenile victims he had abused over the course of approximately the last seven years.
Maurice Dale "Jimmy" McAllister, 80, of Pulaski, Tenn. was arrested yesterday on one count of aggravated rape, one count of sexual battery and one count of aggravated burglary in Giles County. Details of the abuse were uncovered this week by law
enforcement and the District Attorney General requested TBI to investigate allegations of sexual assaults of several members of a local Amish community in Giles County.
In addition to the arrest, TBI executed a search warrant yesterday on McAllister's residence located at 2750 Big Dry Creek Road in Pulaski, Tenn. to obtain evidence in the case. The investigation is continuing and the subject could face additional charges at a later date.
McAllister was booked into the Giles County Jail on $250,000 bond.
No offense to anyone, but what does this have to do with What is Going on at Elkton?
8:50 I knew it wasn't Clay. Someone seems to want to make some sort of sick-connection to him because of the sex offender. I wonder if that post would have made had the perpetrator had a different last name.
Time will prove Clay is also innocent of the charges that he tampered with election signs.
Thanks for the post.
What was the huge story someone wanted WAB to tell? I heard it had to do with children. Then TBI story made me wonder if that was it. I posted 8:50 and 8:52.
He knows.
8:57 Good for who ever knows. The rest of us would like to know. As long as it has been and hasn't come out on the radio, it must be forgotten about or never was anything.
My opinion is it never was anything, a certain person just wanting to stir up trouble.
It will come out sooner or later.
I doubt that.
8:43
Let's just wait and see ok?
Been waiting a long time. Since you seem to know what it was why don't you tell.
I'll not be the one to reveal it.
10:19 Why do you not want to be the to reveal it, didn't you want wab to reveal it.
If it's what I heard Tee, want let it be revealed.
This has nothing to do with Mr. Jackson or with the school system.
4:12 My apologies then. What heard did have something to do with the school.
So kit has nothing to do with the schools or Vanzant or Barrett or Commissioners, who else could we care about?
There is one other I can think of so remember how the Republicans thought they had Clinton. They didn't get him impeached and he won again. So this could back fire just like that did.
9:16
Kit?? Let's watch those typos. Some smart aleck might point them out to you. What a laugh.
9:16 I think you meant it not kit.
1012 Takes one to know one doesn't it.
7:26
So childish.
7:32 Isn't this whole blog childish, especially your posts.
It all sounds like little children that don't get their way.
I get on her to see who had the biggest tantrum.
May 7, 10:19 a.m. "I know something you don't know." naner naner naner! My Goodness, and you have the nerve to post that on this blog that is supposed to be civil discussion of local issues. I have been keeping up a long time, so it's pretty clear who posted this, but even for your erratic behavioral patterns, this is a new lower level of immaturity. Nobody is going to BEG you to tell what you know, as it is pretty clear, you know nothing. That "he knows" baloney is no different that actually telling the so-called story (If there was a story.) You WANT someone to tell it but your gutless personality makes you too afraid. Grow up or shut up, child.
I agree completely with 6:06. It would seem that even children know a carrot on a stick when they see one. I know you are, but what am I? The poster wants to be a big, smart man, holding on to information that he doesn't even have. He's wanting to see how far he can string everyone along with his non-knowledge. Big, big man. Big, big joke is more like it.
I love Jesus, but I drink a little
The huge story still hasn't come out.
Don't look like it will.
I'm beginning to doubt it, but it should come out. It eventually will.
Does this "huge" story have anything to do with the HUGE budget deficit with the school system funding? If so, most teachers in the system have been informed of this so I'm sure it is public knowledge by now!
Not at all. But the teacher situation is sad. I understand some have gotten their pink slips already.
I've heard of another county has had to lay off teachers because their commissioners will NOT give them anymore money. The commissioners are cutting other things in their county also. Too bad Giles County don't know how to cut theirs.
7:13
That's not true and you know it. Giles County is cutting and trying to mbalance the budget. Ask any of the commissioners, Mrs. Vanzant, or Mrs. Garner. Why do you think some teachers got laid off?
Yes, Mrs Garner told them several things they could do but Vanzant put them back in didn't she.
Is Tee Jackson the only one cutting his budget???
If you look at the budgets from two years ago and compare it to last years you can not find any cuts.
It was all talk and you swallowed it hook line sinker and pole. The numbers do not lie while politicians do.
For six years we were told the budget was being cut but in reality they ate up seven million in reserve funds. Just look at the numbers and you'll see the budget has gone up every year. Vanzant's office saw a big increase last year at the very time she was talking about all the cuts. Don't be a fool look at the numbers.
Is the huge story coming out today?
Or is that just another huge story.
What came out today is a pretty huge story.
Giles County just has to be in the news.
Thursday, April 05, 2012 8:04:00 AM
I'm sorry, I think I owe you an apology. I thought you was cg just trying to get Barrett in trouble by telling something he shouldn't.
It sure did take a long time for the huge story to come out.
Guess they just couldn't hide it any longer. I wonder if cg thinks there was nothing wrong in the teacher's insurance not being paid when it was being taken out of their checks.
11:23
Oh, I'd love to tell what I know, but I respect the rights of another individual too much to put it on here. However, if the shoe were on the other foot, it would be all over this blog. You can bet on that.
I find it disgusting that teachers were laid off and that insurance wasn't paid. And, contrary to the lie allen barrett told on me that I willfully go along with wrongdoings, someone should be in deep trouble over this. I do not condone mischief.
7:82 Who do you not want to tell on Vanzant or Jackson? Or do you think Barrett is why the money is missing?
I can understand if money was spent in the wrong place, but I can't understand the insurance not being paid. More people than Garner needs to go. Or do you think Garner didn't need to resign? Didn't you always say you didn't know enough about the problem with her to comment?
8:46
What I could sday has absolutely nothing to do with Mrs. Vanzant or with Mr. Jackson.
Don't worry, my lips are sealed.
For now anyways.
Oh. Goody! As one poster put it earlier, manner, manner, manner! I know something you don't know! Do you feel like a big man on campus now? How insecure you must be!!
Ok, you will get an exclusive report shortly. Just bear with me. This is one that has needed to come out for quite awhile. Stay tuned.
What are you waiting for? You need for people to beg you to tell us what you know? Grow up. If it is news you want to share, then share. Probably it is erroneous gossip that will waste all of us lots of time. Again I say, GROW UP.
I will tell what I know in a few more days, OK? I wasn't going to do it, but I am tired of being called a liar. Just be patient.
If it has nothing to do with the county government, is it important?
Of course this is a good place for gossip.
9:31
Very important. What I have will not be gossip, I assure you.
Grow up, nobody is begging. Didn't you get tired of that game as a child. If you weren't going to tell when you mentioned it, you shouldn't have mentioned it. Oh wait, that wouldn't have gotten you all this attention. I forgot, big man on campus. I always thought those guys were jerks. I can see I wasn't wrong about them.
5:42
In due season, I will tell it. Be patient.
I hope you are going to tell where the money went and why money was taken out of teachers checks and never went where they were suppose.
I have been told it was a lot more then one thing wasn't being paid.
That is the most important thing now.
7:41 you are a condescening jerk, desparately craving attention and power. You think waving this little flag of alledged knowledge makes you important? Guess again darlin. If you know something and have played your little naner, naner game, then you are guilty of concealing evidence in a public investigation. Hmmmm could that be ENABLING? It is, no doubt CRIMINAL! But since "you" would not ever go along with something like that, you must know NOTHING. Either way, you are a liar!

Look, you can call me names all you want, but what I have to say is going to reveal some blatant and proveable hypocrisy and has nothing to do with Financial Management. OK?
If I knew of something criminal, I would call the police. Now who is the liar? You.
Stay tuned.
I will state the facts of what happened at Elkton school,under Micheal Gonzales watchful eye.My daughter came home one day.Told me that a couple of girls had been calling her foul names and so on.I said,well you need to ingnore them and if it keeps up, go to the office.Again came home,names had turned to bumps in the hall and such.So I said,go to the office tell them what you told me.She did,3or4 times.So on a visit to the school.I explained the situation to micheal Gonzales, that after coming to them repeatly,she was shoved in to the lockes. I expressed that my daughter had done everything to avoid getting into trouble.Her main concern at the time.But,she was not going to be physically abused by these girls,that he needed to do something about this.He asured us that it would be dealt with,and we had no reason to be concerned.well,needless to say..My daughter ask her teacher to go to the office.She had heard she was going to be jumped.The teacher choose to not let her until after class.As she left that class,she was jumped,and surrounded and the result was a split on her fore head, resulting in a small scar.bleeding from nose and mouth.In other words she got the mess beat out of her.I knew the other girl and could not belive she was able to do all this.My daughters response was,If you hit back you'll get 3 days.Well let me inform all.You get 3 days anyway..So what would you do next time.I tranfered her out of there.No wonder you hear of a fight of some sort almost daily.But,on top of that.I called an ask to speak with Gonzales,first time,he left for the day.same day mind you.second time,it was something else.third day.Still can't get ten mins.on phone or in person to even acknowledge that I had concerns and questions.theres more to this but,you get the picture.But to add insult to injury,I had to go by and pick up some papers the other day.And gonzales with his mature and guiding leadership.,offered my daughter her 8th grade certificate.As he proceeded to give it to her,he ripped the certificate in half,and stated I know ya don't want that.Isn't that what you just ask us?Well,enough is to much.Glad mine is out of there,and in my opinion he needs to be too.
