I witnessed the fight with my own eyes and heard from several kids that was not the only one those two had been in already that day, along with the man that got into the high school at the begining of the day and managed to stay untill lunch. Are you kidding me anyone can get into the high school its ran by students the office is. I was in there the other day and watched myself two other adults walk in with nothing said a four kids leave nothing being said and the five or so minutes I was in there all i heard was them four kids cursing and planning there way out and what to do when they left, and I watched them leave no staff no where. So why are the kids not being paid for sitting in the chairs that the office personal are to be in. Why cant we use those chairs in the office for the cafeteria for our children to sit on. And for your info MRS. or MR. kiss #$% that was not the first fight i have witnessed and not seen the staff or security. You are a liar and are trying to cover things up. Anybody that has had there children in a Decatur Township school for more then 3 years knows the BS thats going on with all of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826828000189814347.post-78810659718839483922011-01-25T14:00:16.661-05:002011-01-25T14:00:16.661-05:00Anon 9:09 wrote:

By the parents and taxpayers of this township. Their illegal, self serving actions are confirmed in the archives here on this blog.<br /><br />While we're at it, I suspect that we need to post TJ Whitfield over at central office each morning with his breath test unit. TJ always made the seniors blow into his breath tester at the DCHS after-prom party. Sounds like he needs to do the same thing every morning at CO. That and test the board members before the school board meetings. <br /><br />Anyone who fails the breath test gets security called on them, assuming they still have security at the high school. If it's good for the students it's good for $tinson and the Gravy Train riders. The school's bus drivers are tested for booze in their system if they wreck a bus. It's only fair to test $tinson and his fat-cat pals after they've wrecked the school district.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826828000189814347.post-87949597421532745322011-01-25T09:09:29.760-05:002011-01-25T09:09:29.760-05:00Anon 3:11 and 3:15: Are you serious?

That does not excuse allowing a fight between the same 2 people in one day, if it did happen. I'm not doubting you.<br />The students should have been sent home immediately. Then it would not have happened at the end of the day in front of everyone. Why didn't staff respond? Good question. Were they all in those meetings they have on Mondays? Did someone call security? Did security come?<br />Next time there is a fight like that, take it upon yourself to call police, 911. That will take care of it.

Mr. Stinson If you did not want to answer questions about your dwi theres one of two things you should not have done first one YOU should not have drank and got behind the wheel do you not go to the pre prom things about teaching the students not to drink and drive what gives you the right to are you a higher power, what if in your drunkin stage you hit and killed one of those students you preach to about not doing it. Quit blaming it on a divorce that made you make your poor decision that was not your first time that was not the first you have drank and drove there have been many school christmas parties and other parties you have attended that most of your staff and you have got behind the wheel and drove after having drinks I myself have witnessed it you blaming it on your divorce is a bunch of crap, lots of people get divorced and dont make the same poor decisions to do that quit making excuses and take accountablity for your poor actions, what you have done. you should not hold the position that you do you should have been terminated others in your school system have been terminated for much less and not even a crime yours was a crime it was illegal. For two if you do not want to have to answer to the public to the parents to the news then you should have made a differant career choice noone forced you to be a superintendent you made that choice all on your own so you should answer the questions as long as there are questions. For every action there is a reaction. You need to step down since you have the board to cover up your mistakes and defend your wrongfull actions and are to scared to fire you. There are only a few people that defend your situation and there probley your staff and have participated in the same illegal activity that you have. Yes people deserve second chances but when you keep making excuses for your actions you have not learned from your mistake to deserve a 2nd chance and take your 2nd chance at another school, see if another school board would fall for it. All the other drunk driving superintendents that have been on the news did the right thing either stepped down or was terminated but that shows how much respect and honor our school board is lacking to the tax paying citizens and children of our community.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826828000189814347.post-54606281757888005432011-01-24T15:11:30.649-05:002011-01-24T15:11:30.649-05:00Are you kidding me what a joke Decatur is.

I show up to pick my children up today at the high school and there is a fight outside the front of the building involving two students no staff no were to be found untill after it was to late I know they could hear what was going on I could hear it from the point that it started and i was a good distance away from the situation that was happening they were right outside the windows to the office and then to watch one of the kids parents flying off the handle and having to be held back by three people, she needs to be investigated as a parent. Then to hear from my kids that this was the second fight that these two kids have been into today, what is wrong with the staff why send two kids out together that have already been into it once today. Then my children inform me that yet again someone has managed to get passed the office staff and security that did not belong or go to the school to go fight a student in the lunch room. WTH Decatur staff where are your heads were are you when all this is going on. You say our children are yours when they are there then step up and protect them step up and teach them you are failing are kids you are wasting our tax dollars are children are not why your graduation rate is what it is YOU are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826828000189814347.post-81878845777961794752011-01-22T19:42:41.927-05:002011-01-22T19:42:41.927-05:00Pat Andrews has been detailing the endless parade ...Pat Andrews has been detailing the endless parade of state laws that the Decatur school board, and their robber baron superintendent, have willfully violated for a year now. Right here in this blog. All linked to state documentation that solidly proves the laws were violated. You need only look in this blog's archive section to see chapter and verse. <br /><br />The trouble is, the state laws in question do not have any criminal penalty for violating them. They were promulgated years ago when no one dreamed that board members would ever tolerate school administrators looting the school's coffers for their personal gain, and leaving our children on the short end of the stick.<br /><br />I guess it's just another comment on the slow moral decay of our society when, by example, our elected and appointed school leaders now teach our children that it doesn't matter if it's "right", as long as it's "legal". That's the new paradigm of education that DUI Don is giving to our children, right before our eyes. All while Mr. Pellico, Mr. Webster and now Mrs. Gregory all hysterically attempt to convince us how Stinson and his hard partying board members are the "best" we've ever had in charge of our children. <br /><br />To be fair, I suppose we have to expect that from people who are riding Stinson's gravy train, or hoping to be allowed aboard. You have to parrot the official rhetoric or you're booted off the caboose without ceremony. But that doesn't lend much credibility to Stinson's high dollar media machine. They shouldn't be surprized that no on believes them. All after the rest of us watched the stunned expression on Stinson's face that a cop would dare to pull him to the curb as a common drunk when he sees himself as above our laws. How threatened it must have made our board members feel. It's disgusting that our children should see this transpire.

It doesn't prove that no laws were broken, it only proves that the county election board again refused to investigate any violations, just as they have in other cases. Most notably city-county council members who did didn't live in the district they were elected to represent, as required by law. At least in those instances the individual in violation had the class to step down and let a proper person replace them.

They claim they can't investigate because there is no proof that she ISN'T living in her district. Their recomendation was to start at the board level. The suggestion was to contact the board president in writing and ask for a new phone number (since the old one was disconnected) and address. Know who the board president is?
