I believe that Principal Chris Record and Gorham High’s School Council have been bullied by the media and on social media regarding their decision to stop sponsoring dances at Gorham High School.

I support the process they used and the spirit of good will in which the decision was made. Instead of being vilified, Mr. Record and the council should be commended for demonstrating the willingness to make a tough decision and stick with it under pressure. As a parent, I am grateful to have this behavior modeled for my children.

If this type of ugly media attention were being directed at one of our Gorham students, the town would come together and support the bullied student, and I believe our adults deserve the same consideration.

Thank you for your service, Mr. Record and School Council. It is a tough job, and I appreciate your willingness to do it.
