Reiter Not Opening Jan 5. Modulars for Grandview

Here's an email from an elementary parent.

M.R. Reiter parents received a phone blast December 23 announcing that students are to attend school at their present assigned locations, either Grandview or the High School, when they return from vacation on January 5th. An emergency board meeting has been called for the evening of January 5th. We've heard that the board will be deciding whether or not to purchase modular classrooms to be placed on the Grandview grounds.

Reiter Closure Hearing Scheduled

The Emperor's plan for closing M. R. Reiter is now coming to fruition. It says the public is invited to attend and participate.

Let's keep in mind what "participation" is, defined as by the Emperor President and the board of chosen accomplices:

* Keep quiet. Just cooperate. We need a short meeting. Don't you understand?
* If you must talk, you have three minutes. We'll do some paperwork shuffling while you talk, maybe even do some Sudoku puzzles. Our minds are already made up and we're only doing this because state law says we have to give the appearance of public input.
* Don't bring up the past. We ignored you then and we can do it again.
* Don't bring up the present. We know what's right.
* Don't bring up the future. That's someone else's problem. You were foolish enough to elect us, right?
* Don't bring up facts. They just confuse the issue. We know what's right for taxpayers.
* Students? Why do we care about them? They don't pay taxes.

Any rules I missed?
