Rome wasn't Built in a Day-
- 12th-century French phrase and popularized in English in the 1550s
This story is just in its infancy. In the last 48 hours there has been so much added, by the time I publish this, there will be no items added to " what's going on."
The way it started, it appeared as Kevin Steele the former Channel 12 newsreader posted on his site that the Buna ISD was " Slow Rolling" the story, like they were trying to handle what was going on " In house." And in typical governmental fashion, seemed to blame someone else for what allegedly looks like occurred under their watch.
Threats to our youth today only could be seen by someone like Aldous Huxley....And that world is rapidly becoming more and more easily understood and becoming more a reality.
This is one of those circumstances in which I am so glad I do not have a daughter involved. I am afraid I would spend the remainder of my life as a resident of Huntsville, and I certainly do not recommend people taking the law into their own hands.
I have been warning you and telling you for years that school districts are not your friend.
ISDs are government entities, often high taxing structures that only exist for themselves. Not for your children.
Sure, of course, there are people within the institution that want to do right by your children, but many are there for a paycheck. And the further they get up the bureaucracy ladder, the more money they make. Get away from seeing an actual child, as the kids say today, " the bigger your bag."
I have been told that warrants have been issued for electronic devices. The situation now lies with the District Attorney. I hope he understand how many people are watching I hope he understand how important this is about to become.
Mr. DA, I strongly suggest you get all the help you can. I know a DA in the Hill Country. Not sure if this area is his expertise, but he can steer you in the right direction to someone who does. He has been a DA or Asst. DA for almost 40 years now.
- Buna ISD, no matter the outcome, this is going to be an ugly situation for the district.
If you have the points, I strongly suggest retirement for many of you in leadership. I am hearing from people concerning this story that, well, I never knew they were reading the blog, and they are upset, to the point of French Revolutionary pitchforks and torches storming the Bastille.
Even if you recover from the situation, there will be a fire burning in the background. Always there, ready to explode in a moments notice.
Call it for your health.
Call it for family reasons.
Call it you that, you want to travel before you get too old. Vermont and New Hampshire both are gorgeous during the prime Fall leaf season........ Paris is lovely in Spring.......Or perhaps you want to follow Claudio Monteverdi and listen to Zefiro Torna actually while in Italy.
Or......
You may want to do what is right by the kids.
End the distraction, and trust me, at the high school right now, during the End of Course Exams, it is.....And for this testing period, too late.
While we need the money the position provides, we also must remember that we are in the school business for the kids.
And school, I know this sounds political and in a way it is, if you've not ale ready done so, I would provide actual counseling services to those young ladies victimized. Call in actual PhD counselors with access to sending those affected, if needed, to MDs/DOs licensed to practice psychiatry.
I will talk more about this at length, as information becomes available. Right now, this situation is in its opening stages.
