To the Editor:
We are writing with the hope that we can shed some light on what we feel is a disservice to the children of Odessa Elementary School.
Some classes had “Seahawks Parties” last week, in preparation for the Super Bowl. We have a child in school who is not a Seahawks fan and is being forced to partake in the creation of Seahawks pictures and attend class “Hawk rallies.” This child has been segregated by the other children due to not being a Seahawks fan, and the teacher has allowed this to take place.
Students also spent class time watching a taped recording of the Seahawks vs. 49er...

If you ever have an issue with the school, TALK TO THE SCHOOL AND TEACHER! This was a totally inappropriate way to have your voice heard. The teachers at Odessa are there to support the parents and teachers any way they can. I hope you have apologized to the teacher whom this letter was written about.

To Who ever wrote this letter to the Editor. You are such a cry baby. If you did not want your child to partake in the activities then you should have kept them at home that day. I am sure the teacher sent home a notice to the parents saying event was going to happen.

The child in question who told me about the Seahawks game informed me this morning that this event did not actually occur. You can imagine my surprise, considering I made this child promise that the truth was being told before I ever sent the letter. A retraction will be printed next week regarding the Hawks/49ers game. My sincerest apologies to all affected, and I will ensure that no further lies will be relayed from the mouth of my child to the pages of this fine paper. Sincerest apologies.
