Open Forum on Freedom Academy: The Fat Lady Sings--Or Does She?

The Fat Lady Sings--Or Does She?

They say it isn’t over until the fat lady sings, but what about Freedom Academy’s music program? Perhaps the Director can best answer that conundrum since the school’s music curriculum was cut back to just twice a month this last year. What is the reasoning here? Perhaps someone needs a music lesson in the sackbut. Do-Re-Mi-Fa-Sol-La-Ti-Dope.

The Mission

To provide a platform where parents, student, teachers, and concerned citizens can share information, voice descent, and organize to make Freedom Academy a better school. To openly expose detrimental policies and offer solutions that will serve the interests of the student body. To be a source of information for parents and the public on key issues affecting the community. To foster a living example of liberty, with all of the debate, bumps, bruises, and civic activism required to keep the spark of freedom alive.

Letter from the Editor

I wish to thank all parties that are providing material for this blog. The stories, comments, and topics are coming in so fast and furious that I can’t possibly keep up with them.

Explaining The Blog Address

The address freedumbaka

dummies.blogspot.com was crafted for several reasons. Firstly, was the ethical issue of separating this blog from any appearance of being officially associated with the school--obviously it is not. Even though the blog title “Open Forum on Freedom Academy” speaks to the true nature of the blog, I wanted to insure that there was no confusion. Secondly, was the obvious phonetic self-deprecating humor--being that the public are often silent, treated like dummies and expected to sit back and capitulate to oligarchical decrees, (not that they are stupid, but that they are treated like dummies). Hence, it is a call for emancipation and liberation from autocrats ( i.e. free silent/dumb, AKA/also known as "dummies".) Lastly, (and this is more of an afterthought) as their is enough foolishness at Freedom Academy to go around, I say to all, “If the shoe fits, wear it.”
