Dear C-R Activists,// Some background on this:  North Hollywood HS 
most likely has the most aggressive and intimidating military 
recruiters in the Los Angeles Unified School District.  They also 
have a Principal who has taken the side of the military recruiters 
and  they have not been supported when they went to the local 
district superintendents (who are over the school 
administration).  The students and parents have been relentless in 
their writing petitions, making appointments with the administration 
(which were broken or intimidation tactics used), passing out C-R 
literature, and speaking out against the injustices.  They have 
formed a club, Ya Basta,  which is not recognized by the school.// 
CAMS has contacted the Military Advisory Committee and I've been told 
that they are investigating this.  In the meantime the military 
recruiters continue to have unequal and free reign access at this 
school.  They are planning on going before the LAUSD School Board in 
addition to calling attention to the media and public.

Press Conference and Rally: North Hollywood High Students say:
Our Schools Shouldn't Be Ground For Military Intimidation!!!

At this press conference, Students and Parents of North Hollywood 
High, members of the Ya Basta Youth Coalition and many other 
COMMUNITY organizations will DEMAND that the Los Angeles Unified 
School District remove military recruiters from school grounds due to 
violations of district policy 2067.1, recruiters harassing students, 
flirting with students and contacting students outside of school 
grounds via Facebook. There is no room on the North Hollywood High 
campus for the military. We will also be publicly stating that the 
Principal of North Hollywood High must listen to these demands and 
investigate these accusations.

Tuesday, February 15, 2011 @ 3:20 P.M.

The central objective/demand will be: To publicly hold LAUSD 
officials accountable for the safety of the students and to remove 
military recruiters given these concerns that have been ignored.

1) To publicly demand LAUSD investigate these accusations and suspend 
all military recruiters on the North Hollywood High Campus.

2) To publicly state our opposition to military recruiters coming on 
to the North Hollywood High Campus.

3) To call for an immediate end to all repression against students 
for speaking out against these violations

  Teachers, Parents and Students will be available for interviews in 
Spanish and English!
