href="http://www.sd151.k12.id.us/schools/deweb/assets/handbook.pdf">school
handbook</A> proclaims in bold print “A Tradition of Excellence.”
Is this your idea of a joke? The least sensitive individual – me, for
example, can take one look at your aggressive, angry looking, clenched-fist
bee and wonder what in the world is behind this crabby, mean-looking choice
for an elementary school mascot? Then I read the handbook and
understood the message behind the iconography. The use of the term “Sting
Team” throughout the handbook with its underlying message of a gang of
thuggish enforcers hell bent (and I chose the word hell deliberately) on
inflicting pain and punishment could not be clearer. Did the
writer of the handbook demonstrate an uncanny prescience of the face marking
event, is this the ambiance you established at Declo Elementary, or is it a
cack-handed attempt at ironic humor? If you paid for this mess of a
handbook, you were robbed!!!<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

excellence? Really, Ms. Hunsaker? Really? In view of recent
events (yes, I mean the abysmal judgment demonstrated by Ms. Summer Larsen,
4<SUP>th</SUP> grade teacher, and bully par excellence coupled with the
acquiescence of you and the faculty) I read the school handbook. In an
effort to help you cut down on future printing expense I have lined over
elements that you and your faculty, in particular Ms. Larsen, have chosen to
ignore. (I toss all the faculty into the same nasty pot because if they saw
this crappy behavior – and how could they not – and didn’t put an end to it,
they are just as guilty as the perpetrator.) It is my hope that the
school counselor didn’t support your decision to allow this behavior. If
she did, why does she still have a job? How does it happen Ms. Hunsaker, that
the style, prose, and goals have a marked similarity to those of a religious
organization? This <B>is</B> a public school, isn’t it? You might
want to review other elementary school handbooks for a little compare
and contrast adventure.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

Hunsaker, your leadership is as flawed as Ms. Larsen’s classroom management.
It unfairly tarnishes the school district, the state, and quite frankly, the
LDS church. I am not LDS but I do know members are taught and
demonstrate (at least in our community) a strong commitment for cherishing
children. How could you ignore those teachings? Declo Elementary
School has attracted extremely embarrassing national and international
condemnation. I noticed in pictures of the students that there may be
students that speak English as a second language. Were their faces
marked because they didn’t achieve the reading goal? How many of your
faculty speak a language other than English? Have you learned anything
from this horrible event? <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
