Mr. Flores

I sincerely invite you to come to MY classroom, room 139, at Bryan Adams, when the A/C is on. Make sure you bring a jacket. When the A/C is on it averages between 60-65 degrees in there. Try to teach-- try to learn-- in that. We have TAKS testing next week. Think about it.

Then go across to room 138. Hmmm, notice it is in the 80's there.

Now, go get someone to FIX IT. I can't. My custodian can't. My principal can't, and they have really tried.

You are a lawyer on the Board of Trustees. For weeks, I assume you have made time to read people blogging about A/C and other repair issues. Obviously, you and the other members of the board are doing a "Nyah, Nyah, Nyah," with fingers in your ears.

Whether or not a teacher is for a bond issue, we all want to see the previous bond issue dealt with completely. Don't you? As a T-R-U-S-T-E-E--- read that word--- wouldn't you want to instill trust in whom YOU and the board choose to do all this and any future work?

Mr. Flores, as a lawyer, would you accept one bedroom in your house at 65 degrees, and the other in the 80's?

Would you accept the tile work at Skyline? What about their A/C? How much did THAT cost the taxpayers?

Would you like to see something done about any of the complaints registered, logged and listed through maintenance of DISD in the last 2 years?

Please, bring this up at Thursday's meeting. An honest discussion of concerns would be appreciated. Inferring slander and conspiracies are fun to read about, but I still have a sweater on my chair at school.
