When I was still teaching, I always told my students the only way to stop a bully is to tell someone. The same applies here...she's a bully and we must be brave enough to stand up to her! Bravo to you for doing so! I applaud you, Shannon, for taking this public. When I was still teaching, I always told my students the only way to stop a bully is to tell someone.

It is not their money. They just want to keep putting RPS 205 further and further in debt. Also, Sheffield's comments where she said she has acted within state laws is entirely untruthful. She has yet to release the Hardy letter that the courts have now said twice that need to be released. What is she teaching our children by breaking the law?

Don't you feel bad about it one bit. I urge you to take your story to the news stations and the RR--birdcage liner. I realize Linda (frigid) Cunningham and Anna Bannana the comment Nazi will whine foul, but the citizens need to know about this. Ms Symonds I commend you for taking action.

Any such claims would be fully investigated. Yet, Symonds says he's never even contacted her. Kelley, I suggest you back up what you said in December and address these claims.
