That left 4 children without a Mother and Grandmother - and a father in jail facing a death sentence. <br /><br />Several staff members are out on FMLA for terminal family members. Several others are out FMLA for their own illnesses. <br /><br />Still it is better than the year one staff member died in her sleep, and 2 students (K and 2nd) were murdered by their father.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
