Your kind words of support are much appreciated. ; - ) <BR/><BR/>I haven't given up yet...PSS is full of hardworking teachers with too many irons in the fire. As long as we know the ACT membership supports our attempts, we'll keep plugging away at taking baby steps toward positive change within our educational system. If we veer off course, I trust the membership will let us know.<BR/><BR/>I know, I'm still "Little merry sunshine" what can I say?!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22329768.post-105915428877466802007-10-19T09:40:00.000+10:002007-10-19T09:40:00.000+10:00Hmmmm?

That issue has long since passed. I'm not disappointed with you. I'm disappointed with this community as a whole. Its indifference to education is staggering. I had about four events to choose from that night, the Marianas Dive Meeting, Barbara's Theater Group meeting, the SSHS PTA meeting and this roundtable, and I went with this.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16129588857193564261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22329768.post-62650151595964008972007-10-19T09:15:00.000+10:002007-10-19T09:15:00.000+10:00i've been leary of joining act because of who some...i've been leary of joining act because of who some of the officers are. i work with them and don't want my reputation on the line as an educator by association. plus i didn't support their efforts last year to get praxis scores lower. but i didn't attend because, i was with students, after hours planning a haunted house at koblerville youth center. as your mantra says, you'll do what's important, and i made a choice. sorry to have let you down.Bree Reynoldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06496836968234069059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22329768.post-3823270057094804562007-10-19T05:21:00.000+10:002007-10-19T05:21:00.000+10:00oh man!!!! i was told it was at san antonio!!!! ...oh man!!!! i was told it was at san antonio!!!! i drove around for 25 minutes before giving up........ bummer!stargazerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08514803399049780782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22329768.post-60235878905595970642007-10-18T23:10:00.000+10:002007-10-18T23:10:00.000+10:00Jeff, Don't it just make you want to give it up?
