Fort Bend Independent Schools will decide on a campus-basis if they will show President Barack Obama’s “Back to School Speech” on Sept. 14. All principals will be sending home a parent letter with students to let them know about the decision of their child’s campus either today or tomorrow.
For those campuses that choose to show the President’s speech, they will show the speech during their Social Studies classes.
If any parents or students request to be excused from viewing the message, the campus will provide an opportunity for those students to engage in another “constructive activity” on the campus during the speech broadcast.
If a school has decided to show the speech, parents can sign an opt-out form included in the parent letter and return it to their child’s high school or middle school social studies teacher or their child’s elementary teacher by Sept. 13.
Campuses that will not broadcast the speech will encourage those parents who would like their child to view the message to do so via replay or the Internet.
The district asks that parents contact their campus directly should they have any questions after they receive the parent letter.
When you don’t have a valed point, just introduce yourself to make new friends with elected officials or others to know where we stand!
Viewpoint. What?? Do you ever reread what you write before sending?
Still being rude VOR?
When you don’t have a valid point yell racism.
So are you saying that racism does not exist in Sugar Land, except as a smoke screen for otherwise dismissable perspectives? Hmmm… again.
“When you don’t have a valid point yell racism”
or neocon, croney, or corporate welfare….yep its a tactic libs have used for years.
when it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck its probably a lib.
The one word libs hate is lib, or maybe its being outted they hate so much.
Is that like labeling people “libs” whether they are or not?
“teabagging racists”?
It’s amazing how the enlightened use this type of hate to show their bias. The “Tea Party Movement” aren’t “teabaggers”. “Opponents” of Obama’s polocies are not “racists”. Be nice!
glacobs2; Its so bad that the public fail to get out an vote in high number voter turnouts, for annually local May elections. The public remains silent, that effects leadership.
Local officials failing to control HOA, polluters, central appraisal districts and other unlawful actions, withhold voters rights to vote CAD offiials.
It’s a sad state of affairs that we have a president so bad that we can’t let our children listen to him, even if his message is stay in school. He can’t be trusted. I don’t want my children to think that he is not so bad, because they don’t know that he is bringing this country down. I don’t want him forcing his socialist views on our impressionable children. I hate that I have to feel this way, the office of the president and the man should be respected, I am sorry to say that it no longer is. This country was built on free enterprise not on big government. The government should serve the people and every citizen should have a say not only with there vote but there representatives should listen to the people that voted them into office not say “I know what’s best” and not even read the bills that there voting on and just follow party lines because the president wants it.
Hmm…I wonder why schools have never before in the entire history of the USA ever treated the US president with such dismissal? I don’t know… could our schools be pandering to teabagging racists? Just wondering…
Do you realize when you throw hateful, inflammatory words around like that it damages your own credibility?
Yes, students view of our Presidents voice for leadership to b heard, thence wake-up parents to go an VOTE for 2010 elections on Nov. 02. Yes, politics on school campus is part of education an good way of life move forward in right direction to get out an vote to score!
