Dear David:

I noticed quite a few picture frames of graduating school classes had their glass smashed in when I have been touring some Ward A schools these last 5.5 months. It behooves me to say something b/c should not glass shards be immediately replaced by a fresh piece of glass to ensure student safety as well as that of teachers, staff, parents as they walk down the halls?

It is my belief David that the pictures of this living history of the school(s) should still be framed, but instead have their glass frontages replaced by safer & lower cost pieces of clear plastic.

Cracked About Safety,

Rory
