From Deseret News archives:
We all sacrifice in public education
I'm also on Randy Smith's e-mail list, but neither he, nor his Web site, speaks for me, my family or my neighbors.
I was involved in the Davis High School Boundary Committee as the volunteer co-chairman. I was on the inside of all the work with sleeves up as a fully participating partner, never missing a meeting. Some have projected their personal anxieties to claim there were clandestine meetings, secret combinations and coercion to conform. With all I hold true and of worth I say: They are wrong. The only pressure placed upon us was the school board's relentless demand to not stop until we had created the best solution for the greatest number of our youths and their families.
