Willow Run students rally gets RESULTS

Whereas before the students could not even get their questions answered, since the rally and for some the walk out, suddenly the adminstration can't wait to talk with them. Cleverly the students protested and made themselves unavailable for Fourth Wednesday count, used to apportion money to school districts.

See how it works WR Board of Edcation? You lowball the teachers and then the students cut your money. You now have ten days to account for the missing students.

Shi-Keeta Horne, take us home:
"I'm actually happy that we did this because what we finally got a meeting. I think we deserve that because they never told us anything about what was happening with the school."

Willow Run students (a couple hundred) rally for TEACHERS

That's good to see. A couple hundred Willow Run students held a before school rally this morning in support of teachers getting a better contract than the one foisted upon them by the WR Board of Education.

See, students are smart enough to know that education begins with TEACHERS in the classrooms every day. They know good teachers are compensated like good teachers. Good teachers should never have "last best offers" forced upon them.

The Willow Run students get this, are you listening Superintendent Doris Hope-Jackson?

Willow Run student William Gibson gets the last word:

"We want a better contract for the teachers from the board of education"
