Francis Howell Schools ~VS~ Normandy Schools

As most of you know the Francis Howell School District has been unconstitutionally forced to accept inner-city school students from the Normandy School District.
The Normandy School District has been tagged as the most dangerous district in Missouri. Instead of holding the administration and others accountable and fixing the problems within the district, they have now placed their burdens on our community.
Francis Howell School District already has it's own set of problems with drugs, bad behavior, sexual misconduct, low scores, lack of leadership and the lack of enforcement of rules and moral character.

This forced Normandy busing will not only destroy our schools but it will in fact greatly degrade our neighborhoods and our already low property values.
Time and time again it has been proven that these types of situations only bring trouble to the receiving community. Most of all, my greatest concern is about my children and yours. Their safety, education and futures are at stake here. We must act NOW to right this great wrong!
My intent is to organize a group of parents and others who are interested in fighting this abomination that has been handed down on our community. We must to STAND UP for our children, this is one fight we cannot lose!
