I’m glad to read our Coppell police force will likely get the work out and break room space that meets their needs. I I also appreciate the reminder of the importance of public education. I spent 45 years working in both public and private education. Private schools play a valuable role, but I firmly believe the strength of our country lies in a strong, vibrant public educational system, one which needs financial support and the leeway to create a broad based curriculum.

I love Laura Springer! Her words in defense of teachers rings true. I’ve heard awful rumors about happenings that I’m sure are not true. Gov Abbott and his crew are trying to defund public schools by gaslighting parents into thinking teachers are horrible people. It hurts my heart. I know for a fact that 99% of teachers truly care about all their students and even pray for them years after they’ve left their classrooms. I only wish more people could hear and digest Laura Springer’s words.

The only way to stay out of the news is for parents to think before they pass on rumors. Also, to talk to their child’s teacher before they criticize what they THINK is happening in the classroom or school.

It’s was good to hear that positive support is happening in THE ARTS for our community.

Thank you for your excellent reporting. I appreciate all you do to keep us informed.

When I published the Chronicle Crumb about the latest proposal for vacant land next to MacArthur Boulevard Baptist Church, I didn't know the church no longer owns the land. A subscriber who is a member of the church told me that, and Pastor Bob Bolander confirmed that the sale closed in July.
