Julian has two children who are graduates of Champaign public schools. He attended the Great Schools Together community meeting at Edison Middle School on April 6, 2008. WILL interviewed him before the meeting.
I am moved to witness community members who are not members of the plaintiff class speak with such knowledge, clarity, and compassion about the importance of equity and excellence in education.
How sad, how much money is wasted on the consent decree to produce a mediocre school system. Test scores for whites have dropped so there is more “equity”, Unit 4 should be ashamed, why cant children go to the school nearest them, the consent decree is just “Stealth Busing”, its unconstitutional and just plain wrong, maybe those unhappy parents should discipline their children better, “Schools of Choice” is a sham. I went to unit 4 schools as a child and I can say I NEVER saw any evidence that any minority child was treated unfairly or in a biased way, my teachers were kind and treated us all equally, this entire concept is nothing more then the race card pulled over and over again.
