When parents objected to a school memo in 2010 prohibiting celebrations, a taskforce was formed which determined that among 185 families (students, parents and teachers) only 3 parents would not allow their kids to attend Halloween, winter, and Valentine's parties. The task force data was completely disregarded by district administrators, and no parties are currently allowed. "The point of creating a taskforce was to give students and parents a voice, and we feel that our voice wasn't taken into consideration at all," said one parent who served on the taskforce. Yes, I understand the need for equity. But have we gone overboard at the expense of our children's enjoyment of school?

Lighthouse academy, an open-enrollment, college-preparatory charter school provides students with the assistance, training and resources needed to better prepare themselves for the next phase of their lives. And in the end setting the module for a better public education system for the youth in my opinion. The diversity of not just the students but the staff at this school is phenomenal. With open enrollment, students are given tests in English and Math to pool them with other students at their level of development. Utilizing an extended day of schedule, the staff get to work by understanding each youth's own set of circumstances beyond the classroom and than vigorously setting them on the path to get the best of themselves out of themselves. The next Emily Dickinson of our generation may or may not come from this school, but the commitment for learning shown by the staff and students alike is the "peculiar bent of the genius of each" that Plato once spoke of. This should be celebrated! Volunteers are always needed!
