BRAVO KAYHI TEACHERS!

Saturday PM
I offer a HUGE thank you to each of the 38 teachers/LEADERS at
Kayhi who initiated a process of "getting through"
to each and every Kayhi athlete, boy and girl, that there is
CONSEQUENCE for their actions/participation/complicity while
traveling away from and representing Ketchikan. Parse out what
you want about what happened, I have been tempted to do that
as a parent myself in like situations in the past. But in my
opinion it serves no parent and/or child any good to try to parse
out levels of "responsibility" - it will only be when
each and every Ketchikan student, coach, parent, paid administrative
personnel, superintendent, school board member, PTA, etc. act
together CORPORATELY to take responsibility and initiate CORPORATE
CONSEQUENCE that these types of UNNECESSARY and HARMFUL circumstances
occurring away from our town, paid for by our school district
dollars, will cease to exist.
Again, thank you KAYHI TEACHERS!
School conferences are over, but if I knew then the stellar level
of each of your character in placing your names and your concerns
on such an important document as the letter you all signed I
would have shaken each of your hands and given you each a huge
hug. Keep up the good work!
