quite a bit more of the other is appropriate for private schools, who only answer to paying parents. Public schools, however, are in the unenviable position of having to answer to the State and the Feds as well as the taxpayers. They're bound by law, by strict state and Federal guidelines, by funding (both by legislative fiat and by appeals to voters) and by facilities. <BR><BR>Believe it or not, Donovan, this is not a case of Candis Donicht and a maverick school board deliberately deciding to annoy Gerry Weitz, and neither is it a result of a concentrated effort to ignore certain students. On the other hand, if you're willing to believe that the current and former board members and current administration are all demons incarnate, you won't be persuaded by reality -- the same reality the rest of the world has to work with.<BR><BR>keely<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><I><SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic">"And these women that you spit on as they try to

And for what reason?<BR><BR>The merit of Weitz’s lawsuit has not yet been decided. Even the decision by the Deputy Attorney General, which Weitz and others keep circulating, states that the law is ambiguous and subject to two distinct interpretations, one of which is consistent with the MSD's actions. There is absolutely no reason for the MSD to work out a deal with Weitz, either before the election, or at the current moment. To do so would have been, or would be, irresponsible. The problem lies with the law, not with the MSD -- and this is true even if Weitz wins since that decision would set the legal precedent.<BR><BR>I'll save you the trouble and state your reply: "Since you are a teacher, Joe, your opinion is prejudiced and doesn't count." <BR><BR>Thank God the issue isn't whether or not oxygen is essential to life
