Mission accomplished slogan is a joke. The bldg is not complete and the district is so in debt that it isn't paying its bills. Companies are suffering from not being paid and on the verge of going broke. The bldg isn't usable now I don't call any of that an accomplishment. CJ Huff just needs attention. He will never have his picture taken for academic achievement just for overspending. bad decisions and weak leadership

There is no on site parking and shuttles begin at 9:00am. My question is:
When are the students supposed to arrive and where are they supposed to park?
Absolutely "Mission Accomplished" if Huff's end goal was a cluster f***!
Well played R8, well played!

Dear ignorant Joplnites:

Stop trying to confuse me with rhe facts.
I am declaring victory: therfore, it is so.
Bend to my will, or break under my awsome heel.
Do not provoke the almighty power of my board.
For you shall rue ever having thought of questioning my infinite intelligence.

FOR THE KIDS!!!!!!?!?
Dr. CJ
