Did anyone read my post Welcome Back to the Segregation of Public Schools!? If not, go back and read it now for the matter will be heating up starting today.
The Bull did contact the ACLU. The ACLU did find the matter as disturbing as I – and – they agreed to take action on the matter. The Mobile County School Board and the Principal of Katherine H. Hankins Middle School, Ms. Cheryl Wittner, will be receiving a letter from the ACLU legal-eagles this morning. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the local media outlets will be getting their press release packets on the matter at the same time.
My position is simple. Either the County and the school can drop this ill-conceived idea of sexual segregation or I’ll fight.
I discussed he matter at some length with Ms. Wittner since my original post. However, she was not in the least willing to consider, or even listen to, any ideas other than her own. Sad, really. My son, Jake, pointed out to me something I find very troubling. The school’s mission statement reads:
Katherine H. Hankins Middle School will guarantee a learning environment for all participating students to achieve the necessary skills to succeed at their next level of academic, social, and physical potential.
Social? 
How can students achieve their social potential when not only are they being segregated by sex under penalty of suspension and the very curriculum they are being taught is based on the notion that the girls can only perform well, and I quote, “a few day per month” due to their menstrual cycles? Anyone with a daughter should be up in arms about the entire mess. Why aren’t they? Because not only was the curriculum not explained to the parents, the parents were not even notified that the curriculum was being changed! Nor were we notified of any plan to segregate our kids. The usual horse crap we here in Mobile have come to expect from our School Board.
Well, I can only hope that the Board is ready for the feces to impact the rotating atmospheric oscillator. I’m in this until this madness is defeated or until Lady Beth buries me. So here’s your ‘heads up’: Expect a regular stream of post on this fight for the next several months. I’ll keep you posted unless gagged by a court order. If that happens I know someone else will do it for me!
Bull, out!
But then again…these days Bull…I suppose there’s sadly not much I can’t believe anymore. Just when I think I’ve seen or heard it all “they” spring something even more outrageous upon us!
GO FIGHT WIN! I’m behind you 100%. It’s about TIME the ACLU did something they were intended to do! Get ‘em Bull!
Delete this comment, too.
I remember your original post on this lunacy.
Keep up the fight my friend, it time that those of us with some common sense draw a line in the sand.
It’s always nice to have friends that will do whatever it takes huh??
I have to admit I’m shocked that the ACLU is actually helping you on this, but I’m glad they are. It’s about time they do some good for people other than America-haters.
What a load of crap. Best of luck to you!
