exactly! now reynoso [whom was the biggest opponents of the blocks] wants to bring it back, but ms. heredia i guess flip flopped too and wants the periods :[ FML!. this whole block schedule thing is turning into a soap opera or some loony political campaign.

and to also have had our MT. EDEN CHOIR go to New York two weeks prior just makes this whole thing bigger. ive srsly never heard a school in which its BOTH of its performing arts programs tour that far and performed at prestigious venues like lincoln center and carnegie hall, ever. i hate how the music program at mt. eden is still like, ‘haywards best kept secret’ still. we need more genuine advocates for the arts in our public schools.

Congratulations to everyone involved. What a great accomplishment. This is the type of thing that should be appreciated and celebrated by HUSD. Unfortunately, the decision to eliminate the block schedule sends the opposite message.
