    Sedona AZ (September 4, 2015) – The first in a series of community forums to discuss the state of education and its impact on the Sedona Oak Creek Unified School District is scheduled from 5:30-7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 15 at the Sedona Performing Arts Center at Sedona Red Rock High School.

    The forum, to be facilitated by Karen Loftus, Leadership Development Director for the Arizona School Boards Association, will address:

    • Legislation and What is on the Horizon, presented by Yavapai County School Superintendent Tim Carter;
    • School Finance in Arizona, presented by SOCUSD Finance Director Colleen Toscano;
    • SOCUSD Reality by the Numbers, presented by SOCUSD Superintendent David Lykins, who has organized the forum; and
    • Feedback, Questions and Next Steps, facilitated by Loftus.

    “Because the state of education is of vital importance to every member of the Sedona community, the concept for this all-inclusive forum is to provide information and the opportunity to generate feedback from teachers, parents, school administrators, school board members, city officials, business owners, retirees and anyone with interest,” Lykins said. “My vision for these forums is to engage the entire community to understand the ‘current reality’ of education and become part of our efforts to ensure a bright future for all of our students.”

    Plans for additional community forums are being developed and details will be forthcoming.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
