Chula Vista school hurries to get ready for Arne Duncan
You're upset that school banners were paid for by Tax Payer money? Really? Did you know that one of the reasons why YOU pay taxes is to PAY for school maintenance and everything that entails? Like banners. Have you ever seen a school without a banner? Have you? Damn near every school I've ever set foot in has tons of banners. So why attack Castle Park for something every other school does? Oh that's right, you have an agenda. And outside of private donations, wanna take a guess as to how they get paid for? I'll give you a hint, it's not the tooth fairy you nimrod. Tax payer money! It's supposed to pay for things like banners! Unbelievable.— September 5, 2013 1:19 a.m.
Chula Vista school hurries to get ready for Arne Duncan
In what world are you living in where the US secretary of Education comes to visit a school and it's not an event? And since when is the event not about Mr. Duncan and the kids? Because a stage is being purchased? Because the superintendent of the district of the school that is being visited is involved? Should he not be there, showing his "ass"? Would that really make sense? Does that make it "not" about the kids? And isn't it common practice for nearly all schools to give tee shirts to their students all year long, multipIe times? So how would this event not be worthy of tee shirts? You must be a special kind of stupid...or maybe, just maybe, you have an agenda. And as far as "can't we have events without drama", oh my, are you delusional? YOU ARE the one causing drama. Shame on you.— September 5, 2013 12:53 a.m.
Chula Vista school hurries to get ready for Arne Duncan
I will not be politically correct and say this article is full of errors or misleading. I'm going to state exactly what it is: A shameful and pathetic article full of lies and deceit. The Reader should be embarrassed that it printed this. That school began undergoing a facelift last year...LAST YEAR, with the college banners and positive slogans painted along the walls. The solar panels are a Sweetwater District initiative that nearly ALL the schools are undertaking. All one has to do is drive by a Sweetwater District school and you'll most likely see the panels in the parking lot area. To suggest Castle Park Middle School is installing these panels and undergoing a facelift in anticipation off this visit is simply a shameful lie. And since when is it wrong to spend tax payer money on making a school look nicer. Hello, that's part of what the money is for. Amazing, people complain about how the "west Chula Vista" schools are old, ugly, and neglected in comparison to the east side, needing to have money spent on them and then when money is spent to make them look nicer, people complain about why the money is being spent. Incredible. Poor Castle Park and that principal. Damned if they do, damned if they don't. This article is clearly part of a smear campaign and for the Reader to be so off with its "fact checking" is a disgrace to journalism. Someone needs to take the Reader to task.— September 5, 2013 12:30 a.m.
