"ALERT"

a repeat performance...
With the passing of a recent Kona low so went our temporary abatement from chronic pesticide poisoning. Westerly winds, persistent rains and humid environmental conditions brought headaches, muscle soreness, lethargy, dizziness, and difficulty breathing for students and staff of WCMS. Governmental faith in the self-serving science and semantic actions of a multi-national corporation has precluded the rights of children. The pursuit of a bottom line has subverted innocence. This being the second incident of a symptom "spike" indicative of pesticide poisoning this school year, our fear is that the worst has yet to come.
