I’m surprised the principal didn’t send the students door to door, passing out campaign pamphlets, and calling it a field trip.

Roberta Harrell, the school’s director, defended the email Scheik sent, noting that it did not specify support for a specific candidate.
Riiiiiiiight. But, if I take you at your word, I have to conclude that you are really, really bad at interpreting writing and probably shouldn’t be running a school.

“While our intentions were 100% obvious, we think we found a technicality that serves as a loophole permitting us to deliberately violate the goals and purpose underlying the policy.”

Shorter Roberta: We don’t teach critical thinking at our school so we didn’t expect any one to notice that we put the case for one side but not the other.

Maybe they should worry more about educating the students, rather than the parents.

What do you get at a charter school in Evergreen?
Per http://public-schools.startclass.com/l/16704/Rocky-Mountain-Academy-of-Evergreen
–Whiter student body than the average Evergreen school (though not as white as Evergreen overall)
–Less-experienced, less-educated teachers
–Possibly very poorly paid, teachers, though I have to doubt the accuracy of the $24,844 mean base salary reported by the website
–Very few students from poor families (in line with Evergreen itself)
The 400 or so students at the school would be a large chunk of the overall student population in Evergreen, but the school presumably is open to anyone in the large Jefferson County district.
