Email to Paulding County School Board Members

September 3, 2009

I emailed the following this morning:  

Dear Paulding County School Board Member,
 
I’m writing in reference to President Obama’s planned speech to our school children on Tuesday, September 8, 2009.  While the idea of a sitting president addressing our young people does not immediately raise any red flags for me, I do have several reservations about the recommended lesson plans put out by www.ed.gov and the White House.  Please refer to the following story (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/sep/02/wh-withdraws-call-students-help-obama/) in the Washington Times this morning which indicates that the White House itself is having second thoughts concerning these proposed lesson plans and the language that is contained in them.  I sincerely hope that you will join me in advocating for these lesson plans not to be presented or used with Paulding County students. While I see nothing wrong with students viewing a speech by our President, I do believe it to be inappropriate for our students to be directly addressed and petitioned for a response without their parents’ consent and/or participation.  I would appreciate, for the record, a public response from each of you by this Friday, September 4th, in order for parents to have a clear understanding of what is going to take place next Tuesday.
 
Sincerely,
 
Tom Milanese
