			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://newyork.websitewelcome.com/~defendpe/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/DefendPE-Post.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-5" title="DefendPE Post" src="http://newyork.websitewelcome.com/~defendpe/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/DefendPE-Post.png" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a>When we are fighting for our school we are fighting for more than just a building. We are fighting for a community and a way of life. It is truly a place where our kids find hope and love and laughter and learning. They find a place in which there are adults that love them and appreciate their uniqueness. Keeping our school open is a way to tell the children that there are some things that are safe and permanent, even though there be obstacles, these things can not be easily taken from us.</p>
<p>But with this kind of determination, we must remember not to drag the children into to much of the politics. For them they must know that they are loved and cherished. They do not need to know all the gritty details. It is for them to know that there are those that do not understand how much the school means to us and we must show them.</p>
<p>What is important for our kids to know is that love is the strongest weapon we have. When they truly begin to understand all of the famous <a href="http://greatestlovequotes.com/">love quotes</a> and how much they mean, they will begin to understand just how just our cause it. Our love must come through with everything. The <a href="http://greatestlovequotes.com/"> quotes about love </a> must train us. The love that we feel for our kids and our community will be a light that can shine even in dark hearts. And with this we must determine to never give up the fight because we know that our cause is just.</p>
<p>Even though our school is open for the time being, we must be willing to defend our victory by making sure that it says in place. We need to make sure that other communities get just as involved in making sure their schools stay open. If other schools fall, we all are hurt. So we must make sure that every community has the opportunity to send their kids to a good school.</p>
<p>Great civil rights leaders have fought for our liberty in the past. And we should take up their battle to make sure that we have liberty for all. And if we follow in their footsteps you know that we will be in good company. Because their cause was just and their tactics were fair. So we should not give up but persevere until the battle is won.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://newyork.websitewelcome.com/~defendpe/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/DefendPE-Post.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-5" title="DefendPE Post" src="http://newyork.websitewelcome.com/~defendpe/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/DefendPE-Post.png" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a>It is just an understood that there will be those that will try and re-close our school. But we must persevere until the victory is complete and the school is finally safe. We look to the struggle of Martin Luther King Jr and understand that the victories may be small, but if they strategic it will bring about a greater victory. What we must do with each of our victories is prove that even though you may be oppressed, that does not mean that you are powerless. Each generation must provide a better and more rooted life for the next generation. So keeping our school open may be a small victory in the grand scope of things. It is a strategic victory making sure that these generations of kids know that when the oppressed band together, we can accomplish great things.</p>
<p>The fight for public education has only begun and we must work hard to complete the task. It is more than a battle for a building but it is a battle for the hearts and minds of the generation that will come after us. They must know that they are loved and cared for. We must show them that the love and civic responsibility they read about is not dead. The <a href="http://greatestlovequotes.com/">love quotes</a> they read about should not be just in the history books. But the <a href="http://greatestlovequotes.com/"> quotes about love </a> should show them that a brighter future is possible. They must know that when they read of love it means so much more when it is accompanied by action.</p>
<p>If we are to succeed at raising a generation of self-reliant kids we must teach them that all is possible if we are united. If there is future attack on our school, it is imperative that we come against it with great resolve and courage. We must not give up until there is final victory and the school is safe and secure for generations to come. It is the only way to make sure our kids understand what they must do as adults. The best thing we can do for our kids living in poverty is to give them a world class education and teach them what it is to be a success as a person, spouse, parent, worker, and citizen. It is the only way that we will have a secure future.</p>
