"New
Site. Renewed Spirit.".
If you have been following the plight of the Jenkins on
my website, you will notice a significant difference in
the presentation of the website. So why did we do it?
No. People weren't complaining ... in fact the just the
opposite. Since we launched the site last week, we have
had more than 8,000 hits and close to 300 emails pour in.
And you know what? ... Just one out of the entire lot of
email received was critical of Dale. Of course this particular
critic was too much of a coward to use their actual
name. Maybe it was one of the BOT members?
At
any rate, I decided that although it gets pretty tough updating
the website with news, email and commentary almost on a
daily basis ... my friends Dale and Kedel deserve it. So
I've spent a few days revamping the entire site.
I think that some of you out there may be
getting 'tired' ... feeling a bit discouraged that we may
not prevail in this battle with the SJS BOT and Headmaster
... or that it really isn't your problem so 'move on' ...
well, take a look at the photos — it'll remind you
real quick that Dr. Dale Jenkins and his wife Kedel are
REAL PEOPLE with REAL HISTORY that counts! They need
your support!
Another reason for the new look is to let you ALL know that
we are just beginning! Our beef with SJS goes beyond Dale
and Kedel, (although they are our first priority). Once
they receive the fairness and justice they deserve, it will
be onto the other issues that need attention.
I as well as the many alumni members that I represent are
not pleased with the way the new SJS BOT and Headmaster
are running our beloved school. They are messing with it
in dramatic ways ... and who are they to do that? Many on
the board do not have any history with the school ... Who
are they to say what is and what is not in the best interest
of SJS?
Many of you have emailed me with your corrections, etc..
thank you ... the mere fact that you are doing this lets
me know that you are reading and absorbing the message that
I'm providing. Keep sending me feedback! I need the extra
set of eyes!
As you will read more and more in the weeks and months that
go by, this battle is not about getting Dale and Kedel their
jobs back (although we would be happy if that happened),
but rather why did they had to lose it in the first place?!
They did nothing wrong. How do we know? Well, so far as
I know — the SJS BOT and its Headmaster have not justified
to us why this has occurred. So we give our full trust to
the Jenkins!
Don't lose interest my friends. Please keep the debate alive.
I guarantee you that there is something the SJS BOT and
its Headmaster are hiding ... they've misled us already
— Let's not let them get away with it!
The alumni must keep focused and be the school's true gatekeepers
so that our own children can experience the same education
and childhood dynamics that made SJS so special to us.
Peace.
