The E-Accountability Foundation announces the

'A for Accountability' Award

to those who are willing to whistleblow unjust, misleading, or false actions and claims of the politico-educational complex in order to bring about educational reform in favor of children of all races, intellectual ability and economic status. They ask questions that need to be asked, such as "where is the money?" and "Why does it have to be this way?" and they never give up. These people have withstood adversity and have held those who seem not to believe in honesty, integrity and compassion accountable for their actions. The winners of our "A" work to expose wrong-doing not for themselves, but for others - total strangers - for the "Greater Good"of the community and, by their actions, exemplify courage and self-less passion. They are parent advocates. We salute you.

Winners of the "A":

Johnnie Mae Allen
David Possner

Current Events ALERT for Parents:

The new discipline code raises many serious questions for parents:
1. If our child's teacher tells the Principal that our child has been caught "lying", being disruptive, etc., what recourse do parents have if this report is false?

2. Who will listen to parents who dispute a suspension?

3. who listens to parents who have information of teacher/Principal/Administrator abuse of our children?

4. who can stop a Principal from filling up our child's folder with false information about our children?

5. Who is accountable for a Principal who erases a video showing that he/she or a teacher abused a child?

6. How can parents protect their children when there is no accountability for misinformation?
