The Wareham Education Association would clarify that the leadership of
the association did not author the letter discussed at the June 8 School
Committee meeting. Members of the Association may have been involved
with its authorship, but the concept and text were never subject to
discussion or vote by the Board of the WEA. That should not be
interpreted as disagreement with its contents or concerns. Rather, any
educator willing to stand up for a smart and safe learning environment
for Wareham's children should be commended. The Association does
reiterate that it will sign any letter to the School Committee or
community.

Speaking personally, I wrote this statement is just to make clear that this particular letter was not a WEA missive. I am not seeking to undermine or contradict the issues raised in the letter, but do not want any confusion on who wrote it.
