Why

were 'bus sex' students sent to 'alternative school?

Why were the two

students who were found engaging in fornication on a

Fayette County public school bus given the opportunity to

complete their academic year at the Fayette County

Alternative School? Is that where the Board of Education

has seen fit to officially address such misbehavior? If

so, why there? Doesn't the Fayette County Alternative

School have students and parents within its own ranks who

do not want to be exposed to such company, either?

Tell us all what the word

"alternative" really means in this case. It

seems as though the "Alternative School" was

used as a dumping ground for these students who were

guilty of this inappropriate sexual conduct. Doesn't that

send a message about the Fayette County Alternative

School that is less than desirable and less than

academically-focused?

So, what is the real

purpose of the Fayette County Alternative School? Why was

it an "alternative" for these two students to

go there in the first place when they should have simply

been expelled? Expulsion would have at least communicated

to all students, parents, and citizens of this community

that these students clearly functioned outside of what is

decent and normal and that such behavior among students

is not and never will be tolerated or accepted in our

community.

Finally, what the two

students really need is an atmosphere that will allow

them to hear and embrace the gospel of the Lord Jesus

Christ in order to address this issue. But of course, if

they aren't getting this type of education in their

homes, we all know this isn't an alternative at all in

the public school system, now is it?
