I applaud you all... Teacher's and staff. You have been fighting an uphill battle for years. Please continue to email me at: bates0680@gmail.com or write me at: 1007 Brown Rd. Longview,Tx 75605 Without your knowledge from the inside like many others in the community I have no idea how to help you fight the issues you have. I am angry of all the things you have to face everyday , that can be fixed, but is not being done. The more I read these letters the more I understand the struggles you face, but you stick through it and continue to try to teach our children the best you can with no support. This is what I am thankful for. Continue to educate our children that want to learn. I will stand up for you and fight. Please understand this will not be an easy task, but I do believe these changes can happen. It is not your fault it is the system that is failed. Support one another and stay strong. Right will always prevail. Thank You, Jason Bates
