David Peercy is at a fork in the road.

At the school board meeting tonight,
Policy Committee Chair David Peercy,
will find himself at a fork in the road.


He will have three paths from which to choose.






Following one path, he will honor the commitment that has
been made to put administrative and executive standards and
accountability on the table for open and honest discussion.

Following a different path, David Peercy will tell the truth
about why he will not honor the commitment to put
standards and accountability on the table for honest and
open discussion.

And by the third path, David Peercy will stonewall the issue.

According to the APS Student Standards of Conduct,
stonewalling is specifically and explicitly identified as a
dishonest path.

Because stonewalling is dishonest, students are taught,
it is unethical, and therefore done at the expense of their
good character.


So here he is, at his moment of truth.

David Peercy will put standards and accountability on the table
for open and honest discussion.

or

David Peercy will tell the truth about why he will not put
role modeling of the Student Standards of Conduct
on the agenda for open and honest discussion.

or

Or David Peercy show students what dishonesty looks like.

Dishonesty followed by, shirking accountability for dishonesty.

A far different story than the one students hear at school
about George Washington and a cherry tree.
