Marty? Winston? Kent? Did you boys chop down that cherry tree?

According to the standards of conduct that apply to students in the APS, young George Washington did the right thing when he held himself honestly accountable for his conduct.

According to the standards of conduct that apply to administrators and board members, young George should have hired himself a Modrall lawyer.

It would appear that School Board President Marty Esquivel, APS Supt Winston Brooks, and Journal Editor Kent Walz are hiding something.

The question is; are you boys hiding the truth about public corruption in the leadership of the APS?

Winston, are you hiding evidence of felony criminal misconduct involving APS senior administrators?









Marty, are you really denying due process to hundreds of whistle blower complaints?









Have you both, abdicated as role models of the APS Student Standards of Conduct; the Pillars of Character Counts!?


And Kent, are you really going to
show up at an APS School Board
Meeting and give NM FOG's most
prestigious award,
the Dixon Award
for Champions of Transparency
to Winston Brooks?





Are you really going to try to keep the ethics and accountability scandal in the leadership of the APS, secret through yet another school board election?

George Washington reportedly, would fess up.

We tell the 90,000 of our sons and daughters in the APS;
their character depends upon their responding to any
legitimate question by, answering candidly, forthrightly
and honestly.

If we really want students to grow into adults who
embrace character and courage and honor,
someone has to show them what it looks like.
