Monday Morning, I received an email that there were vandalism done at school. They are calling for help in cleaning up. I feel that children has no respect for school or even government property. The government gave us an opportunity to stay here in Japan and enjoy the culture here. But I think, those people or kids doing this. They never gave respect to themselves...
This is an email update I received after the clean up drive they made:
Monday, Sept. 12, 2010 major vandalism was done to The Sullivans Elementary
School. There was damage in two classrooms, lounge and administrative
offices including the principal's office. In addition to the school there
was also damage to several vehicles in the surrounding military family
housing parking areas. A dependent child of a U.S. Sailor has been
identified as a suspect and has been questioned by NCIS. The NCIS
investigation of this incident is still ongoing. A call for volunteers
garnered a phenonal show of positive community response. 364 Sailors and
community members worked tirelessly to ensure the school was thoroughly
cleaned and ready for student and staff on Tuesday morning. "On behalf of
the children, parents, faculty and staff of The Sullivans School, I would
like to thank each and every volunteer who helped clean and restore the
school enabling everyone affected by the horrible act of vandalism to get
back to business as usual. The quick and enthusiastic response to the needs
of our children helps bring the community closer together and show our youth
what hard work and caring can accomplish". said CFAY Commanding Officer
Capt. David Owen.
