Governor Dan McKee,

As a Pilgrim High School community member and a parent to a child who attends Pilgrim high school, I ask you as well as all those who sign this petition, to give Mr. Habershaw his job back.

The information posted via media was incorrect first and foremost.  All of the staff, students and volunteers were to be tested prior to the dance in order to attend an event that was also OUTSIDE in a tent. The media also did not state that most of the students were tested twice as the dance was canceled due to weather the week prior.

Mr. Habershaw is an amazing figure to the school no doubt but he absolutely in no way deserves this and alone. 3 other schools in the State of RI also participated in events exactly like this one and because they were not caught on social media, they didn't get in trouble. Enough is enough! If Mr.Habershaw is going to be punished for this than so should all of the parents for allowing their child to attend, students, the staff that went, as well as other volunteers. 

Lets give Habershaw his job back as we stand together and support an amazing teacher, Principal and cheerleader for our children! 

Sincerely, 

A proud Pilgrim Parent!
