  1. I, too, sent letters and emails. I still think 12 times the state average is ridiculous. It clearly illustrates how wasteful the Township is. 2015 can't get here fast enough.

  2. Why does the township STILL get to spend 12 TIMES the state AVERAGE????? The NEXT lowest is 7.94x????

  3. The suit against the Griffith Public Schools by the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of three eighth-grade girls expelled for comments they made on Facebook has been dismissed.
    The confidential settlement agreement, obtained by the Post-Tribune Monday morning, states the plaintiffs have agreed to dismiss the lawsuit “with prejudice” and releases the district from any expenses the plaintiffs incurred. In turn, the expulsion of the three girls, listed in the suit as K.F., S.M. and J.D., is considered satisfied by Griffith Public Schools and is expunged from their transcripts, though if they’re expelled again from Griffith for any other reason, the district could refer to this expulsion at its discretion.

  4. Sandy, after the fact, you'd be all over the school system if violence did occur. It is not the school's job to figure out if they are "serious" threats. Their job is to protect students. The students' job is not to act like idiots on social media and threaten the lives of other people. That is the real problem in this society: no personal responsibility for one's own bad behavior. Everyone is a misunderstood victim.

  5. All those who believe this is free speech and GPS is wrong would be crying the loudest after the fact if violence actually occurred and saying "Why didn't the school DO something!".
