Dear worried parent –

There is no need to “worry about what is happening to our school” as the new board will make a fresh start and turn things.

Will there be painful fallout? Sure. Will EVERYONE need to leave? No. But if people insist on doing things “the way we used to” the place is doomed.

Its just like a business; if you refuse to adapt to the new way of doing things, your competetion will eat you for lunch.

That’s why Lakewood is the new Brooklyn and BPis the new Willamsberg.

As far as “the names on the bldg” the $ they gave was to benefit “the klal” not just to service their own brand.

In a much, much smaller scale I give $ support to the BP infrastucture, even though “its not my brand” I’m supporting. But I do live here, so I need to be a good neighbor. With time, I may need to adjust the direction of the $ flow, but for the moment, I’m here, I’ve benefited greatly from being here, so I’m carrying my share of the burden.

The “names on the bldg” most likely feel the same way. At a point, BYOBP was dear to their hearts. Now things are different, and their involvement has changed as well.

They’re not asking for a refund, and are most likley quite happy to see someone else (or several someones) step up to the front line.
