[Backwoods]

Backwood, your statement just shows how ignorant you are about how money is used in the school systems....special ed. money has nothing to do with facility money....it is totally differnet...building our new football field has NOTHING to do with hiring ANYONE....know what you are talking about before you make a crazy statement like that....NOW, I have SEVERAL special ed. teacher friends and I take offense to what you say about them....THEY work their butts off day in and day out to educate our kids of Harlan Co!!!!!

Do you want to talk about taking offense,then do you think I took offense when the county school gave my son a bogus IEP and then told me they could only give him thirty minutes a month of therapy because they couldn't afford additional therapist. This is a kid with autism. I was informed that the school recieved $9000 to assist in his therapy at the school. Let's see thats 8 mos. of school at 30 mins. per mos.,that comes to 4 hours of therapy for $9000. If you think I didn't take offense to that then that shows your ignorance and I and every Special Education kid in that school take offense to that fact. See,not only did my boy recieve the $9000 but every kid with special need in the entire school system. On top of that his regular classroom teacher's would not give out homework that required a book because the said they were afraid that if they were lost they couldn't affords to replace them. But boy they can sure afford to build the finest sports complex in the entire state. Now,if your special needs kid's were suffering wouldn't you see fit to take a little bit of that $4 million that cost to build,just the stadium,and see to it that they were taken care of first. But see,they had the money to start with and it didn't go to help the kid's.Where did it go dude? It either went into that stadium or someone's pocket. Someone needs to investigate what happens to special education money at that school. I may very well do that. You are lighting a fire sir. It would be the least I could do to help the counties special need kid's. Hah hah,and you are worried about some teacher's feelings. Grow a heart dude. You can't see their need for your own selfish want. Well,HHS could and I applaud their efforts for the special need student's in the city district and I say if there is a parent of a special needs kid that goes to the county,you better be looking closely at what's going on with thier funding at that school. If HHS can do what they do with the funding then something is rotten in Denmark or the county school system. For the life of me I don't see how you can be proud of that and try to throw it up in the face of the city.
