Could care less: “I could care less if school teachers wear jeans, slacks or formal outfits. As long as kids are learning, that’s what counts. Let the teachers be comfortable. ‘Looking professional’ is in the eye of the beholder. There are more important things to worry about.

Tailgating

“Drivers of trucks are not the only people who tailgate. I think you may have oversimplified the matter. I’ve had compact cars nearly run up my exhaust.

Sleep aids

“Mr. Walden, thanks for the warning about sleep aids. I certainly don’t want to get up at night and clean the house without knowing it. My wife would be feeding me these pills by the spoonful. 

Segregation?

“Segregation in schools? It’s my understanding that an elementary student can go to any elementary school they want. It no longer matters where you buy a house. By the time they are in sixth grade its ALL general population. 6-12 no segregation.

Doing great!

“Sunset is doing great! Doing better than expected is a very good thing. Sunset lead the entire district in having students on grade level at their mid year testing. I am thankful my child attends Sunset and for the hard work from the faculty, staff, and new administration! Like Dr. Purvis always says, The best is yet to come!

Good letter

Spousal abuse

“On the issue of spousal abuse. I think data show that a wife will return to an abusive husband four or five times before learning that this behavior will not change. It’s sad that it takes that many times. But applause to Serenity House!
