| Dear readers,
I have been out of the education space for some time now, blissfully semi aware of the world in my retirement. However, Having reviewed the contents of this letter, it is indeed factually correct. However, I would suggest two additional steps. First, after filling in and signing the relevant information, make a copy but make sure that a prominent law firm is included in the Cc: I would suggest one of the “Fearsome Foursome” from the DC metro area. For a modest fee, you can add one of their email addresses after confirming with them your intent. Second, I would follow up with an email including the scan of the original document as well. This communicates two things clearly; violation will bring an overwhelming legal response. Second, you have placed all parties on notice, thereby eliminating a “Cease and Desist” order, thereby allowing for direct action. I would personally suggest either Kirkland & Ellis, or Quinn Emanuel. Both are the type of law firms that stop all other law firms in their tracks, and to be short, they are brutal. If, after following the above suggestions are employed, and if there is foolish pushback on the part of WCBOE staff, simply retain the firm and turn them loose. Dr. Micha, it might be a very good time to re-educate your staff about compliance with a parental directive that is well documented. It would be a shame to see one of your minions misunderstand this and land the whole lot in the boiling pot. Regards, |
