Huntley Schools – Board’s Not Fighting, Students Are

Have you noticed that the members of the Huntley School Board aren’t fighting like they used to?

Maybe this has nothing to do with it, but with the resignation of former school board member Glen Stewart, turned into District 158’s Chief Operating Officer, and the replacement of Jim Carlin on the school board by the man he beat—Mike Skala—things have quieted down.

It was probably the teacher negotiations that brought relative unity to the board. And, who would have thought previous outsider Larry Snow would have ended up being the point man in those negotiations?

Meanwhile, fights among students have increased.

Northwest Herald reporter Amber Krosel emphasized a report that 14 high school students had been charged with battery.

Not all boys either.

Six were girls.

Obviously not “young ladies.”

Thefts, too.

You might call it forcible income redistribution.

I-Pods, designer purses, cell phones, etc.

Apparently the richer kids haven’t learned to lock their cars and lockers or to keep their precious possessions in their hands or pockets.

No report of gang activity.

And no report of people wanting to kill anyone, except in The Voice, the high school newspaper.
