West Aurora School District 129
Dr. Jim rydland, dr. Ed howerton brett burton debora myers and district 129 board members and unknown conspirators RESIGNATION REQUESTED. Your schools and your actions are a rip - off! Investigation needed aurora illinois

As I type this complaint I'm thinking to myself, am I doing this as a way to vent my anger? (possibly, I'm very angry). The bigger reason is to expose a bunch of egotistical lunkheads whose arrogance is unsurpassable even in the cummunist world. The other day I received a call from Principal Brett Burton. He stated to me that my 10 year old son was caught with a pocket knife in his pocket. He is immediatly suspended for 10 days, (WOW! I THOUGHT). Mr. Burton then advises me that he will be recommending expulsion for my son, (WOW-WOW WOW). I mentioned to him that expulsion is excessive since he is only 10 years old, and besides, he hasn't been in any prior trouble. Principal Burton then admits to me that expulsion is a long time, (possibly 3 weeks), but in a matter of fact voice says "THAT'S THE LAW". I asked him where I could read that law. He stated it would be found in the elementary school handbook, sd129.org. I go to the web site to look up the "LAW". NO "LAWS" are found regarding knives, only vague inconsistancies with penalties as little as 1 day inschool supension for elementary students, (page 25 a-2) I get on the phone again with Mr. Burton, I tell him that I don't see any "LAW". He informs me that there will be a hearing to decide about the expulsion. I tell him that I will be there to appeal the expulsion. He then states to me not to bother appealing because " no one ever wins with those guys", (the board members). It turned out that I could'nt make the meeting, but I called to have it postponed, I talked with Assistant Superintendent Dr. Ed Howerton who was also recommending the expulsion, he quickly denied my request to have it postponed. It should be noted that these 2 persons are old buddies who worked together in another district. As far as it sounds to me this hearing is already fixed, the verdict will be what ever the good old boys decide. They don't want to hear from a disgruntled parent. He gave me an excuse saying we need to move on with this hearing so my boy can get back to school. (what is the hurry when you are expelling him for 3 weeks anyway). I live in Texas, if I was going to drive 1400 miles to be at the Kangaroo Court of good ol boys, then they could have waited for a concerned parent. I posted my complaint on a teacher complaint web site and sent some faxes to them opposing their arrogance. They didn't approve of my complaining.
