Wow, talk about a slice and dice job on the interview on KMOV with these parents! I can't believe this kid's teacher, the school principal and the school board super just threw a six year old under the bus and tried to throw mistrust on his parents, just to cover their asses.
Believe what you want, but this interview did not come close to addressing what happened. This is not about just not getting lunch...it's so much more. And for the district it was all about shuffling and denying blame.
Shame on you Jim Greenwald, Mark Lull and Allayna Carnahan. Shame on you all.
My respect for the district has now plummeted, and I mean plummeted. Six months ago I would have thought maybe our district was heading in the right direction, and that maybe the guaranteed "I'll have your back no matter what you do" mindset of teachers and administrators was beginning to dissipate...I WAS WRONG.
This father and mother have HUGE support, enough support in Granite City that the school board members need to be concerned about re-election.
Once, just maybe ONCE, the district could tell the complete truth. This brings all that nasty Harshony business to the front of my mind. Lie and cover up, at any cost.
