Jeff Matteson Quotations

Whenever you have a concern about a group of kids, you have to get those with authority together to discuss it.

We want to surround our families with as much support as possible. There are some great people working with kids in this town. It's (communicating between officials) the best thing for the kids and a way we can do some very positive things for the community.

My hope is the letter will get people talking.

In partnership with parents and local government, you never know what you can do. There is a lot going on here (the high school) for kids, but we can't offer everything. We'll never be able to schedule every minute of every student's day.
