Mrs. Carr is a secretary at the Dallastown Middle School guidance office and she has made a huge impact on a lot of students. However, she's been diagnosed with cancer and the school wants her to resign from her position because of the school days she is missing due to her chemo. PLEASE SIGN SO MRS. CARR CAN KEEP DOING GREAT THINGS FOR STUDENTS AT DALLASTOWN LIKE SHE HAS BEEN FOR ALMOST 20 YEARS

Updates

I have requested a formal meeting with the school board to discuss the policy being applied to Mrs. Carr. My legal contact is currently reviewing the employment contract to identify potential grounds for an exception. Expect a summary of that documentation once the review is complete.

So, is there no "family" at Dallastown anymore? Why is this happening? How sad a commentary on current human connections in the District...

Please help me understand why one of the best School Districts in the County would treat a long time employee this way ? Surely this is not true ? Cancer is devastating on it's own, then to deal with losing your long time employment ?! Please reconsider DASD !!

Good employers stand behind their employees 100%. Best of luck to Mrs. Carr, she is a great person and deserves better support.

As someone who has battled cancer I just want to say they talk about the kids that bully other kids. That is a fine example to set for the kids. My employer stood behind me 110% . If my treatments were in the morning I could return to work and finish the day if I felt I could.If my treatments were in the afternoon I could work in the morning.They worked with me all the way through my battle and are still behind me.

Hi! Okay I've known Mrs Carr for about 4 years now, and I just wanted to let you know that I also have a petition that's about three pages long from kids at the high school, we're all fighting for her together!

MRS. CARR is amazing and has been a great role model to so many students in the middle school. Just because she got cancer which is very unfortunate doesn't mean she's less of a person and can't do great things anymore. KEEP HER

I don't know her but if she is making that much of an impact then let her stay.

Mrs. Carr is the best and professional with dedication to the students of the school. She has made lemonade out of lemons and keeps going.
