St. Rene Goupil Kindergarten celebrates 100 days of school
The St. Rene Goupil kindergarten celebrated their 100th day of school on February 4th. The children were encouraged to dress as if they lived 100 years ago or were 100 years old. They created a 100 day snack by counting ten different foods into sets of ten. Many others activities were completed that day and throughout the week. The children enjoyed listing 100 words then can read and remembering 100 things
that they have done or learned. The best was learning about a very special friend named Jesus. If you are considering a school for your child come and visit St. Rene School located at 6340 S. New England. Pictured: Nicolas Sanchez, Camila Valles, Antoinette Piesiewicz, Richard McNichols, Jacob Donato, Benjamin Velazquez, Emily Velazquez, and Emiliano Bracho.

Lend Me Your Ear...
Greetings and salutations to all my great and grand readers. Toots has ‘various enterprises’ and does a considerable amount of work from home. I am not your average person. Oh Toots, say it ain’t so! There are times that I work around the clock to get a project done. No sleep for two days, cause Toots is on a roll. Those days, Toots is probably not at her most attractive best. She jumps in the shower and changes into another set of lounge wear (pajamas), applies no makeup and does not comb her bird’s nest of hair. Quite the sight! Every now and then Toots will take a break, stretch her legs and maybe enjoy a puff or two on a cigarette. Just clear the cobwebs from her ever
frazzled brain. Toots will do this on the front porch of her humble abode. The neighbors truly believe that Toots is unemployed, psychotic and quite possibly dangerous. Can’t blame them - I’d think the same. Here is this very strange looking woman who appears never to leave the house and is on the front porch at all odd hours. She is usually enjoying a spirited conversation with the dogs. They think must think that Toots is a wealthy recluse who sits all day watching soaps and eating Bonbons. Ah, the Bonbon Queen! I could get into that. Could be my life’s calling. But as long as Toots is providing entertainment for the neighborhood that is good. I want to be of service to the commu-
nity. Every now and then they spot the Toots leaving in business attire and that really makes them wonder. They speculate is she truly looney tunes, is she of multiple personalities, is she a spy...? Onto the ‘lesson of the week’. Toots says you should never be upset if people are talking about you behind your back. Toots says “carry on and applaud them”. Remember, you will only be talked about if you are an interesting character. Oh wait, let me not forget Brownie Points - Madame Editor, rest assured that we all talk about you constantly. Behind your ramrod straight back, of course. You are truly an “arousing and enchanting” personality. Not! ‘til next week... Toots Malone

Editors Mailbag… Dear Editor, Publican’s thoughtful response to one of PETA’s pro-vegan billboards that went up near its restaurant and butcher shop in Chicago has opened up a meaningful dialogue about the idea of “humane meat.” Publican is obviously concerned with reducing animals’ suffering. But people who buy organic or free-range animal products because they think that the animals are treated well have unfortunately been duped by clever marketing. Many organic and freerange farms cram thousands of animals togeth-
er in sheds or mud-filled lots to increase profits, just as factory farms do. And the animals often suffer through the same mutilations that occur on factory farms, such as debeaking, dehorning, and castration, all without painkillers. Many “organically raised” cows are sent to factory-farm feedlots to be fattened prior to slaughter, where they live caked in feces and mud. And, as Publican recognizes, these animals “are

They are hung upside-down and their throats are cut, often while they are still conscious and struggling to escape. Some are still conscious when their bodies are hacked apart. Though the desire to purchase “humane meat” is admirable, there really is no such thing. Michelle Kretzer-PETA

Rachel Rashad chosen Meteor of the Month for January
Our Worst Winter
by Cleatus (Cherokee Lee) Murdaugh This has been our worst winter Since nineteen seventy nine That we’ve had this much snow In a neighborhood like mine. For every time we turn around We’ve got a lot more snow Where are we supposed to put it? Nobody seems to know. Will this snow ever stop falling Here on this street of mine I am getting tired of shoveling And it is just about time.
De La Salle Institute, 1040 W. 32nd Place, proudly announces that Rachel Rashad has been chosen the Meteor of the Month for January at De La Salle’s Lourdes Hall Campus for Young Women. In a joint initiative between the school’s Campus Ministry and its City of De La Salle student government, nominations are received from faculty and staff highlighting students who are motivated and enthusiastic about the school’s Lasallian mission inside and outside of the classroom. Specifically, nominees are students who stand out among their peers by having demonstrated one or more of the Lasallian Principles of Faith, Community, Service, Social Justice and/or Association. Rashad is involved in the cross country and track and field teams, Mandarin Club, Games & Gadgets Club and Peer Ministry. Pictured: Lourdes Hall Campus principal Diane Brown and Rachel Rashad
The law says we aren’t allowed To park on the main street When the snow’s over 2 inches But we have over two feet.
Julianne Alvarado
Personal Stats: I have been married since 2000 to the love of my life. Mr. Juan C. Alvarado is an honorably discharged ex-Paratrooper from the 82nd Airborne Unit. He is my rock and support system. What Do You Do For A Living? I am the Learning Resource Coordinator at Mother McAuley Liberal Arts High School. The Learning Resource Program is designed to help students discover their unique learning style, identify their academic strengths and encourage them to take responsibility for her own participation in learning. One Of The Biggest Events In Your Life? Next to getting married and having two beautiful children, winning the 2014 Distinguished Service Award from the Office of Catholic schools for the Archdiocese of Chicago is definitely BIG!! The Best Advice That You Ever Received? “Education can never be taken from you.” My mom said this to me as she subtly (I use that loosely) told us that I was going to college. When Are You The Happiest? I am happiest when I am with my children and my children at home and my students at school. I think my life is called to service. Who, Or What, Is Your Inspiration? I would have to say my mother. She raised my sister and I to have faith in God, in ourselves and to persevere through whatever life has handed you. Any Advice For The Youth Of Today? Believe in yourself. Life is the great equalizer, so wait and see what great things are in the plan. Anything Else To Add? I say... Mother McAuley’s Learning Resource Program is unique compared to others because our students are mainstreamed into the study body. The students may face learning obstacles, but demonstrate the potential to succeed in a college prep program. We are an assistive program with goals leading students to independent and responsible learning habits. Students in the Learning Resource Program learn to develop, strengthen and grow as a lifelong learner. The class of 2013 Learning Resource Students had 100% acceptance into college. We are proud to say that our program is unique and individualized. In the spirit of Catherine McAuley, we are educating young women with charisma, to face challenge and provide service.

‘Design for grade separation nearing completion’
Music Corner by Ken Qualter February was Black History Month. Which got me to thinking about the African-American contributions to American music. It’s hard to imagine what American music would sound like without the influence of the black community. Bland might be too generous of a description. We might still be singing “Camptown Races” and other Stephen Foster songs. Gospel, blues, jazz, soul, rhythm & blues, funk. (I know some would disagree, but I consider rap and hip-hop some kind of weird aberration). Even rock mu-

American Music sic. Ike Turner is often credited with “Rocket 88” as the first rock ‘n’ roll recording. Chuck Berry and Little Richard were not only big stars, but hugely influential on other musicians. The black influence on Elvis Presley was undeniable. Berry, Richard, and Ray Charles had a big impact on the young Beatles. Berry, Howlin’ Wolf, and Muddy Waters inspired the Rolling Stones. I think musicians may be a bit less racist than the general population. Hey, a great sound or musical idea is a great idea no matter what the color of your skin is. Musicians were among the first to ignore Jim Crow laws, playing and jamming in integrated bands. Sometimes at great risk.
City NewsHound 6219 W. 63rd St. Chicago, IL. 60638 Attn: Editor
That’s not to say that there are not racist musicians. I’ve heard some say some pretty vile and/ or dumb things. From both races. I know a very talented elderly AfricanAmerican gentleman who once told me that “white people just don’t hear blues right.” He insists he’s not biased. I can overlook his views knowing he witnessed the terror and atrocities of the KKK in the Deep South. He is a good man. The African-American contribution and influence on our music is huge and significant. And the joy of making and listening to that music is one thing that brings us together as the American People.

Senate Transportation Chairman Martin Sandoval (D-11) recently met with IDOT officials at his district office in Cicero, to go over design plans for a grade separation in the Garfield Ridge neighborhood. The project involved a Preliminary Engineering and Environmental Study (Phase 1) of the proposed improvement of Central Avenue at the BRC Railroad in the vicinity of 54th Street. The most likely improvement scenario will be a grade separation of Central Avenue at the BRC tracks providing two continuous through traffic lanes in each direction and
bicycle and pedestrian accommodations along the entire length. The Phase 1 Study includes the preparation of an Environmental Assessment (EA) in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). “I’m happy to report that the design for a grade separation is nearing completion,” said Sen. Sandoval. The proposed improvement will address congestion experienced by motorists on Central Avenue due to train crossing disruptions. In addition, emergency response is compromised during periods of rail freight occu-
pancy. “Senator Sandoval has made this project a priority,” said Project and Environmental Studies Section Chief John Baczek. “We are working diligently to ensure all areas of the project are on schedule.” The Phase 1 Study has taken approximately 18 months. Pictured: Kimberly Murphy-Consultant Studies Unit Head and John A.

Mother McAuley announces expansion of iPad Integration Program
Mother McAuley Liberal Arts High School, 3737 W. 95th St., announces the expansion of its iPad® Curriculum Integration Initiative. Beginning in August 2014, all students in grades 9 and 10 will be required to have an Apple iPad in school daily as part of the school’s move toward a 1:1 iPad program. Students in grades 11 and 12 may voluntarily bring an iPad to school, but are not required. “We are excited by this next step in our efforts to incorporate the best aspects of a liberal arts education, steeped in the Mercy tradition, with cutting-edge technologies to prepare our young women as learners, leaders and responsible digital citizens for the 21st century,” says Mrs. Claudia Woodruff, Principal. As a pioneer in academic excellence, Mother McAuley believes that effective integration of technology into the curriculum leads to innovative learning and higher levels of student achievement. The school was the first single-gender,
private high school in the Chicago Southland to launch an iPad initiative with the introduction of a pilot program in September 2013. Prior to that, the school had been using iPads in select science classes since 2010. “We have found the iPad to be a versatile tool and resource to enhance learning for our students,” says Eileen Boyce, Assistant Principal. Families will be responsible for purchasing an iPad for their student(s). McAuley currently is researching an iPad purchase option program through Apple. The onetime cost of an iPad is approx. $675, whereas the annual cost of traditional textbooks is between $500 and $700. As publishers expand their eBook offerings, so too will McAuley’s eBook options, providing to families a significant savings versus the cost of textbooks. Cumulatively, families can expect to see upwards of $1,500 in savings through a student’s high school career. “Beyond the academic
and economic advantages of the program, we see value in the tangible offerings for students and teachers – from complementing our school-wide ‘going green’ initiative, to easing the often heavy load of books that students carry, to providing a tool to students and teacher to create engaging and interactive learning environments,” says Boyce. Founded in 1956 by the Sisters of Mercy, Mother McAuley Liberal Arts High School currently educates nearly 1,200 young women grades 9 through 12 and is the largest all-girls high school in the country. McAuley promotes a single-gender education platform that encourages young women to grow in faith, envision their future and discover their talents through a challenging and motivating academic and co-curricular program. Mother McAuley’s tradition of excellence has made it a top choice for all-girls private education in the Chicago area. For additional information, please call 773-881-7171.

Nazareth Academy welcomes Miss Illinois to speak to students about distracted driving
On February 26th, Miss Illinois 2013, Brittany Smith, spoke to Nazareth Academy students about the dangers of Distracted Driving. Automobile crashes continue to be the leading cause of death and injury to teenage drivers, and teens are nearly ten times more likely to be in an accident within their first year of driving. Miss Illinois pre-
sented not only facts and statistics to promote good decision making behind the wheel, but drew from her own experiences in speaking to students. According to Nazareth principal, Deborah Tracy, “We are delighted to have the opportunity to hear from Ms. Smith on the pertinent topic of distracted driving. Too often we hear horror sto-
Impartial observers from other planets would consider ours an utterly bizarre enclave if it were populated by birds, defined as flying animals, that nevertheless rarely or never actually flew. They would also be perplexed if they encountered in our seas, lakes, rivers, and ponds, creatures defined as swimmers that never did any swimming. But they would be even more surprised to encounter a species defined as a thinking animal if, in fact, the creature very rarely indulged in actual thinking. ~Steve Allen

All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory. I was naïve. I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer. It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with: that I am nobody but myself. ~Ralph Ellison, "Battle Royal"

Queen of Peace introduces a new and improved fitness center
Queen of Peace has re-opened their new and improved fitness center. Over $10,000 of equipment was generously donated by the Women’s Workout World in Hometown and Downers Grove. The new equipment includes 3 new treadmills, 3 elliptical’s, 8 pieces of strength machine equipment, a rack of weights and an AED. “Queen of Peace is very excited that Women’s Workout World was so generous in their equipment donation. It’s
a great thing when a business helps a school in their community,” said Anne Malone, Assistant Athletic director. The fitness center is open to athletes, faculty and students. There are also classes that use the fitness center daily. The AED that was donated increases the presence of life saving equipment in the school building. Mrs. Anne Malone’s fitness classes were certified earlier this year in CPR and AED.
The updated fitness center arrived at the perfect time as many of the faculty and staff members are involved in a biggest loser challenge. Members taking part in the challenge are looking to improve their fitness and overall health which makes the new equipment a nice perk. Queen of Peace High School is located at 7659 S. Linder Ave. in Burbank. To learn more, visit us at www.queenofpeacehs.org.
A smile costs nothing but gives much. It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give you a smile. Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give. ~Author Unknown

Cook County prosecutors secure conviction for murder of 13 year-old boy in 2008 shooting A South Side man was convicted by a Cook County jury on Feb. 7th of the murder of a 13-yearold boy who was shot and killed as he was buying snacks with friends after football practice at a South Side convenience store in 2008, according to the Office of Cook County State’s Attorney Alvarez. Sebastian Rodriguez, 20, of Chicago, was found guilty of First Degree Murder for the murder of 13-year-old Sameere Conn after Rodriguez fired a gun into the door of a convenience store near the 2500 block of South 106th Street. According to prosecutors, on Oct. 1, 2008, Conn and his friends stopped at the store to buy snacks after football prac-
tice. While the victim and others stood at the counter to pay for their purchases, Rodriguez approached the glass door of the store armed with a loaded .357 revolver. The defendant then fired the gun numerous times into the door in the direction of the Conn and his friends. Conn was shot in the abdomen, as well as in both hands and died the next day at the hospital as a result of his injuries. A 27-year-old man also suffered a gunshot wound during the shooting but recovered from his injuries. According to prosecutors, prior to the shooting Rodriguez told a witness that he wanted to kill Conn and others. Three days before the shooting
at the store, Rodriguez told another witness that he had made a “death list” that included Conn’s name and at least four other individuals. The day after the shooting police recovered a .357 blue steel revolver from the defendant’s home, which was later identified as the murder weapon. Several eyewitnesses also identified Rodriguez as the person who walked up to the door of the store with the gun shot multiple times into the store. Rodriguez was convicted by a Cook County jury after a week-long trial at the Leighton Criminal Courts Building in Chicago. The defendant faces natural life in prison when he is sentenced on March 11th.

Comptroller, Governor host pet adoption event at PAWS Chicago
Topinka and Quinn push to make 2014 the year of animal rescue Governor Pat Quinn and Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka hosted a Comptroller’s Critters pet adoption event at PAWS Chicago Sunday, February 9. Nearly three years ago, Comptroller Topinka created the Comptroller’s Critters Pet Adoption Program to find good homes for shelter animals and save taxpayer dollars by avoiding the costs associated with overpopulation and animal control efforts.

Mayor Emanuel and Chicago Police launch community organizing effort, graduate more new officers
Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Chicago Police Superintendent Garry F. McCarthy recently announced a new pilot training collaboration with DePaul University focused on community organizing and strategic planning for CAPS personnel. The training will help the Police Department continue to grow their partnership with the communities as they work together to continue reducing crime and violence. “Everyone has a role to play in the safety of our city, and communitybased partnerships like this bring us all together around the common goal of continuing to reduce crime and violence,” said Mayor Emanuel. Conducted in three phases over the coming months, the effort will train 25 CAPS staff in pilot districts that will develop and execute community engagement strategic plans specific to their districts in partnership with their District Commander and community partners. Community engagement efforts will include public safety forums, volunteer recruitment and community-based events. “Over the past two and
a half years we have led a return to community policing in Chicago, ensuring our officers know the neighborhoods and residents they serve each day,” said McCarthy. “The Egan Office of Urban Education and Community Partnerships at DePaul University’s Steans Center is honored and excited to partner with the Chicago Police Department to support its efforts to establish deeper community connections that contribute to building safer neighborhoods in Chicago,” said John Zeigler, director of DePaul’s Egan Office of Urban Education and Community Partnerships. “This important partnership reflects our university’s urban mission and strategic efforts to positively impact the lives of all those who live and work in the city. We believe this is the beginning of what we hope will be an enduring partnership with the CPD.” Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Superintendent McCarthy also announced the graduation of 54 police recruits and the promotion of 30 Sergeants and 16 Lieutenants in the Department. The graduation and promotional ceremo-
2 Ex 8 Ye pe ar rie s nc e
ny was the first of 2014. Today’s class follows quickly on the heels of the 742 new officers who graduated from the Academy in 2013, the most in recent memory and far surpassing the Mayor’s pledge of graduating 600 new officers last year. In the past year there were also promotions of Department members at every rank, including Field Training Officer, Detective, Sergeant, Lieutenant, and Command Staff. “The men and women who protect our residents and communities are the backbone of public safety and I congratulate the newest Chicago Police officers,” said Mayor Emanuel. “Strategic policing is vital to reducing crime, yet it’s just one part of a comprehensive approach that includes stronger prevention, more stable parenting and stiffer penalties for serious offenses.” “The commitment that Chicago Police officers make each day to our communities and to our residents drives our continued progress in reducing crime and violence Citywide,” said Superintendent McCarthy. The graduating class of recruits includes 12 military personnel, including 6 active members, and 3 multi-generational officers, highlighting the legacy of duty and leadership intrinsic to law enforce-
ment. The ceremony also recognized the promotion of Sergeants and Lieutenants, further reinforcing the Department’s command structure. Emanuel and McCarthy welcomed graduating recruits as the newest members of the Chicago Police Department and praised the newly promoted police supervisors for their example of dedication to duty and commitment to service. The graduation and promotional ceremony highlighted the commitment of Mayor Emanuel and Superintendent McCarthy to ensuring public safety in the City of Chicago. Police recruits spend five months at the Police Academy and receive approximately 1,000 hours of instruction and training before beginning a Field Training Program as a Probationary Police Officers. Upon acceptable completion of the Field Training Program and 13 months of field experience, Probationary Police Officers become full-fledged police officers. There are virtually no vacancies among police officers and Police are keeping up with attrition. As police officer vacancies open up, through retirement or promotion, the Police Department enters a new class into the Police Academy.

Help the earth and your wallet with green home improvements
During this time of the year, many homeowners plan big home improvement projects for the spring. While planning these renovations, it’s important to be aware and take advantage of tax credits offered by the federal government to increase home energy efficiency. The Better Business Bureau (BBB) offers tips for consumers to save money throughout this process. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 includes several new tax and expanded credits that homeowners can take advantage of while increasing the energy efficiency of their home. Some qualifying improvements include routine work that every homeowner must undertake now and then, such as installing a new roof. However, other qualifying improvements are more involved including installing a wind or solar energy system. To qualify for tax credits, improvements must typically be made on the owner’s primary residence. Homeowners should keep in mind that just because a product has an ENERGY STAR seal—the Environmental Protection Agency’s standard for energy efficient consumer products—it doesn’t mean the purchase qualifies for the tax credit. A full list of qualifying home improvements is available online at: www. energystar.gov/taxcredits. The BBB offers the following advice for homeowners on finding a company or contractor while saving money with tax credits: Always check the company or contractor out with BBB first. BBB Business Reviews are available online for free at www.bbb.org and will tell the homeowner if the business has a good rating and is accredited by BBB. Homeowners should get several estimates for projects and remember that they do not have to use any specific contractor in order to take advantage of the tax credits. Before making any improvements, visit www.energystar.gov to confirm that the products being used are eligible for the tax credit. Also consider consulting the IRS Web site at www.irs.gov or a tax professional. For more advice on finding businesses and services you can trust, visit www.bbb.org

Marquette Bank Invites 54 Schools to participate in 48th Annual Scholarship Marquette Bank, a locally-owned neighborhood bank, has announced the 54 local high schools selected for the 2014 Marquette Bank Education Foundation Scholarship Program. The program has a 48-year tradition of providing scholarships to graduating seniors from neighborhoods near Marquette Bank’s 22 branch locations. Funded by the Marquette Bank Education Foundation, the scholarships are available to students who demonstrate financial need, have an outstanding record of community service and maintain at least a “B” average. Since 1967, over $2.6 million has been awarded to over 1,300 Chicagoland high school students. “As a neighborhood bank, we want to ac-
knowledge and reward those graduating seniors who have demonstrated a strong commitment to our neighborhoods through volunteering and completing service projects,” George Moncada, Marquette Bank President said. “Providing financial support encourages these students to further their education and will help them to become future leaders of the community, which will benefit the entire community as a whole.” Scholarship recipients are selected by their school’s principal, guidance counselors or principal-appointed committee and are recognized at an awards ceremony attended by friends and family. The scholarship can be used to cover expenses at any higher education
program including: fouryear colleges and universities, community colleges, vocational training or trade schools. To apply, students from participating schools can pick up an application from their guidance counselor’s office by March 15, 2014 and the schools must submit their nominated scholarship recipient by April 25, 2014. The Marquette Bank Education Foundation Scholarship Program is part of the Marquette Neighborhood Commitment, where each quarter the bank focuses on a different area of need: shelter, hunger, education and health/wellness. For more information on the Scholarship Program, call 1-888-254-9500 or visit: www.emarquettebank.com.

Life... is like a box of chocolates - a cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that no one ever asks for, unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So, you're stuck with mostly undefinable whipped mint crap, mindlessly wolfed down when there's nothing else to eat while you're watching the game. Sure, once is a while you get a peanut butter cup or an English toffee but it's gone too fast and the taste is fleeting. In the end, you are left with nothing but broken bits filled with hardened jelly and teeth-shattering nuts, which, if you are desperate enough to eat, leaves nothing but an empty box of useless brown paper. ~The X-Files

ZERO TOLERANCE Sometime within the past decade or so, some � budding Einstein some� where decided that a good way to put an end to � school shootings would be for us as a society to really start to get tough and put our collective foot down when it comes to students and guns – particularly in public elementary schools. Never mind the fact that most school shootings aren’t done by pre-teenaged kids anyway but rather by older kids and young adults but – facts be damned – somebody had to do something to make our kids safer, right? So this former rocket scientist (I’m just guessing – he might have been a brain surgeon) school administrator made a decision that has since been adopted by a large number of school systems throughout our nation – namely, a zero-tolerance policy for guns. At first glance, it sounds good – right? What’s not to like about having a policy that will keep our precious little gradeschoolers safe? Well, the problem with such rules (and a host of other rules, laws, etc.) is that they only serve to make you feel safer, when in reality they don’t actually make anyone safer. So with this new zerotolerance policy in place, one day all the teachers announced something like this to their students: “All right, everybody! Listen up! From now on, there will be absolutely no guns permitted in this
school! And anybody caught with one shall be dealt with harshly. This will be a zero-tolerance rule with no exceptions!” Well, this new rule must’ve worked wonders, for I haven’t heard of any third-graders shooting up any schools since then. Have you? But I have, in fact, heard about some seven-year-old getting suspended for chewing his Pop Tart into the shape of a gun (Park Elementary School in Anne Arundel County in Maryland) and saying, “Bang, bang!” – an offense that the school described as “a threat to other students”. Then there was the case of the Montgomery County (Maryland again, at the Roscoe Nix Elementary School in Silver Spring) public school system suspending a first-grader for pointing his finger like a gun and saying “Pow!” A ten-year-old boy at the David Youree Elementary School in Smyrna, Tennessee, was punished because he brandished a pizza slice at his school
friends. A half-eaten slice of pizza that vaguely looked like a gun. Then there’s a case right here in Chicago where a sixth grader at Fredrick Funston Elementary School was not only suspended from school but also subjected to intimidation tactics, interrogation and threats by school officials – all without his mother being present – and ordered to undergo counseling – all because he voluntarily turned in a plastic toy gun he discovered that had been forgotten in his jacket pocket. I’ve only scratched the surface. Incidents like this have been popping up all over the country and kids are getting severely punished for their infractions. Boy, oh, boy! Don’t you just feel safer already, knowing that we have school systems that find ways to punish all those zero-tolerance rulebreakers? Our tax dollars at work, indeed. It seems that for some people, zero-tolerance means zerothinking. artie@CityNewsHound.com
