Pack a picnic basket and head on down to on Saturday!

Citizens for Protection of Public Lands has announced that they'll be holding a free event called "Celebrate Your Land" to spread the word about their recent efforts.

According to the event flyer, the picnic will run from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and attendees will learn about ongoing protection projects from both CPPL members and Rep. Phil Miller.

Those interested in attending are welcome to bring their own picnic, but the CPPL will provide hot dogs, salad, dessert and drinks.

I have not heard anything for a while on that whole subject. I have not heard about accreditation issues either... I know about 12 years ago or maybe longer there were issues. My kids are not in the HS. Normally I support our BOE. And it should be noted that the BOE did not approve this... I would tend to bet that if you polled every board member - no one saw this report card system before it went out, and I am not sure who has seen it since. With kids in the middle school now I am keeping an ear open about the HS.

Dear EH Resident, Thank you for a well written and very informative communication. I am a parent of…Read More a recent Hale Ray graduate and have a student currently in the school system. My children are five years apart and it is down right scary to realize how much our school systems quality and rigor has been degraded in recent years. These changes are the direct result of the ill guided Board of Education. Recently I have heard that our high school will soon be becoming a vocational school and will not be accredited . This maybe a rumor but the current path we are on certainly supports the rumor. The loss of accreditation will mean that the diploma our children earn upon graduation will not be accepted by higher education institutions. The mantra of doing less with more is destroying our community. Our children are being robbed of a successful future because of their penny wise pound poor management. We must demand change and accountability from our Board of Education!
