Hey, GREENIES and fellow concerned
citizens,
The Petition Drive that was held on March 10 was a
success. Petitions were signed by GREENIES, concerned citizens, candidates
for city council, business owners, teachers, policemen, parents of GREENIES,
parents of SPMS students.
At the last meeting on March
3rd we formed committees to locate more concerned citizens
and to explore the necessary steps to obtain a National
historical marker for the school. We strongly encourage everyone to
write letters to the school board, city officials, and state
legislators. A list of some of the officials are included below for your
convenience to let your voices be heard.
We are
trying to collect all concerned persons' emails into
one complete master list for sending out updates rather than
several small groups so we will be more effective in apprising everyone of the
progress in saving the school. So, if you don't see someone's
email address here who would want to be included, please let me know.
BISD is feeling the heat from the loud, united outcry of
protest coming from all walks of life! So we need to keep it up!
I receive signed petitions every day from more and more segments of the
community, as well as GREENIES ranging from the Class of 1927 to the
Class of 1986.
If you attended the meeting or the petition drive,
you might have noticed the South Park T-shirt I was wearing. Many
have asked where they can get one. As soon as I can find out if they
can be made available to us again, I will update you on those details
of how to get one.
If you have any questions, please
feel free to email me or call me. (409-899-1879). Looking forward to see
you on April 14. if you can help at Petition Drive please let
me know.
Miriam
