Over at The Chalkboard...

... you'll find some photos of the new Southwest School Road protest.

I was going to blog about this after seeing the new display this morning, but figured my colleagues on the education beat would be all over it.

If you're not aware, there's been a rather entertaining display set up since the early fall protesting the school choice plan. The folks behind the protest have changed it up with the season, so there was a big turkey before Thanksgiving and a witch 'round Halloween. I have to admit getting a chuckle out of the Christmas display...

It was the Scrooge that made you chuckle wasn't it? Or was it Grier's Christmas gift from Santa?

An announcement of this past Friday's Tree Lighting Ceremony was posted on the Chalkboard. You should have joined us.

I guess you know that Bruce lit the tree, or did he forget to mention that?

Jonathon,

Sorry we didn't invite you personally. Here's your open invitation to any event held at the BIG ERECTION site!--seriously!

Go on, ask Bruce, we're harmless.

Thanks Janes, I'll try to make the next one. From Bruce's recap, it sounds like y'all had a bit of fun with it.

Yeah, it was a fun event, Jonathan. These folks are harmless, although I had a little trouble keeping the names straight("Now, let's see...you are Jane? I thought she was Jane?")

I can't wait to see what the next display will be. Please keep me posted and we'll continue to put photos up on The Chalkboard.
