How many black people have you seen out canvassing for signatures?
I wonder how many of their "pastors" told them it was a sin to do so.
The entire black community has been brainwashed into thinking this whole ordeal is to bring back segregation, state-sponsored Jim Crow and publicly accepted hangings of minorities.

I would be content with just having the ISD and not the city.
I would like to see it proposed to designate Woodlawn High School as an exclusively GT/magnet school, similar to BRMHS. Transfer the non-magnet/non-GT students to Tara and to Lee High when it fully reopens.
Then all those students who attend BRMHS but who live in the SG area could transfer to Woodlawn, freeing up space in BRMHS for additional students who are suffering on the waiting list to get in there.

Non-magnet schools are filled with shithead kids and the school board refuses to do anything about it.
...yet they malign those who want to do something about the EBRPSS.

Apparently you are fine with the education that they received, good for you. But the entire St. George movement is strictly about creating a new school district. Those parents involved want a better school district for the kids in that area. I don't begrudge them for that.
So many people are jumping aboard this SG city thing thinking its all about the schools. Do people realize that creating a city will entail us tying a lot more on than we can handle? Taxes will go through the roof.
SG area can handle an ISD not a city. Im all for the ISD.

I think this would be make the parents happy that only care about their kids education and not the system as a whole, but it doesn't resolve the problems that are killing the whole school district.
Above everything I would rather a major overhaul of the school board from top to bottom. Reevaluate everyone who works for EBRPSS and determine if they are fit for teaching the youth in the city, all of the standing disciplinary rules and even the whole cirriculum.
I think most of the problems can be fixed by better parenting, but the school system has to make due with what they are given, they can't change what happens at home.

I think SG can handle being a municipality. I've worked with a lot of municipalities and the workers they have are not the brightest in the box. I think there are people in SG that are smart enough to handle becoming a municipality.

It's being called a "neighborhood magnet school." Any student living in the attendance zone can be admitted...no entry requirements.
To stay in Lee High, the student must make a minimum GPA.

All they wanted was the school district, but the state legislature shot it down. Incorporation is the only way they can get that school district, so that's the last option remaining to them.

Have I not been telling you guys how bad EBR has been? Everything I read on that site is 100% correct. I have first hand knowledge of some of the stories.
I have been in EBR since 08. The last 3-4 years have been pathetic and has gotten worse each year.
I love teaching...and have no real complaints about pay...except that I have not received a raise since 09...but the stupidity and thugishness needs to stop.

My wife was threatened once at her former EBR school. The black woman and her husband actually showed up to attack her in the parking lot after school, but the police had been notified as well as the staff after her threat earlier in the day. Actually a funny story, sort of. I was on my way to said school with my trusty 12 gauge in tow to explain to them that I was quite upset with their behavior, but it happened on the day George Bush was in Baton Rouge and his motorcade gridlocked the interstate system and I couldn't get there until they had been removed from the premises. fricking shame too.
