Continuing coverage of this week's incident at High Point Central High School (previous coverage found here and here).Lots of good comments continue to pour into the home office here at Guilford School Watch.
And now some on the Board have had their say...during last night's Board meeting:
News & Record:
The school board and residents also condemned the placing of Klan-like hoods around the campus of High Point Central High School. Two Central students have been charged in the incident.
“We have a special responsibly to show the right path,” Chairman Alan Duncan said. He urged white residents to do more to educate young people about racist behavior, saying these types of incidents are not pranks.
Board members Deena Hayes and Vice Chairman Amos Quick urged the district to do more to look at the issues in schools that create these types of incidents.
Hayes also suggested creating a policy to address hate crimes.
*****************************
Some things of interest here.
I think Duncan could have used some better choice of words here: He urged white residents to do more to educate young people about racist behavior (as reported by the N&R).
Replace the word white with the word ALL. And maybe it's me, but isn't this a little divisive? And I'm in NO way condoning what happened at Central AT ALL. Couldn't this have been put a little better or expressed differently? What do you think?
Also, to address Hayes and Quick...GCS has an office of diversity. Aren't we paying a fair amount of dough for diversity officer Monica Walker to do just this? To help craft and draft policy? To look at the issues that, according to Hayes and Quick, "create these types of incidents?"Click here and here and here for some past coverage Guilford School Watch has done on Monica Walker (roughly about a year ago).
Thoughts?

Eric, thanks for this story and thanks for all the back information on Monica Walker. Are we really paying $80,000 for her? As you would say, disappointed but not surprised. I think the nitwits that put the KKK hoods up at school should be punished to the extent that the law allows...and then slap them silly for good measure. There is no excuse for this. These kids are dumbasses and bigots to boot.
I encourage all the readers to this fine blog to follow the links and dig deep into the incredibly tiresome liberal claptrap that comprises Monical Walker's world view. Some of the stuff that has come out of her piehole is absolutely stunning.
Pleasure's mine, John. The research was incredibly easy; just follow the links and form your own opinions.
