My name is Joyce Harris and several parents called and referred me to this site since I have been discusssed several times. I picked up my daughterfrom Whitmore who is age 12 on Nov 27th. First, my husband and I were escourted by Officer Wright from Nephi Police Department, and since I have been represented as an abusive mother who threw her daughter down a fligt of stairs, hit her, and broke her fingers in a car door---anyone is welcome to call this officer and verify that is is a LIE. I was forced to try and locate my daughter's clothes in the dark, while being yelled at by unruly girls. There were only 2 girls sleeping in my daughter's room when we arrived at 2:30 AM, and there was a group of other girls awake in the room across the hall. This surprised me because I was told that Whitemore had a strick bedtime schedule. The kids who are "reporting" and spreading lies about me were NOT present when I came to pick up my daughter---Chris, Mackey, Caitlyn were not there---so they are just repeating untruths that were told to them. Also: I have never been report the Child Protective Services for abuse EVER. This too is a lie, and can be checked by anyone who cares to do so. I have never been fired from a teaching job ever, and this can be verified also, by anyone who cares to check it out. I can stand up to any scruity on my record with any agency that wants to verify any records that have anything to do with any alledged abuse against me, or any employment history I have. I have nothing to hide. If Mr. and Mr. Sudweeks have any problems with me withdrawing my daughter from their school amid charges of child abuse, then they need to contact me directly and not manipulate children to spread malicious lies. I have only responded to a personal email that Chris sent me, and that was to relay a message to my daughter that he and another student asked to say hello to her. I was happy to do that because I respected his seemingly sincerity. We had the right as parents to bring out daughter home. We were not even called by the police or the CPS in Utah about the incident at Whitmore. A mother of a student there called our home. So NO ONE from the authorities in Utah talked us into removing our daughter. And the statement that the 3 students who left Whitmore were all drug addicts is another LIE...our daughter has NEVER used any drugs. Telling lies about students who left does nothing to help solve the issues there at all. We are not accusing any students who stayed there of being horrible, or drug addicts, so why attack our little girl? She did nothing wrong. No one there even know where I teach school, so how could you possible know what my superintendent did or did not do. Why all the lies about me, a mother? I did not use a loud voice to wake up anyone...all those kids were up and about already. Why? I have no idea, and I certainly didn't just use my imagination to make up lies to try and explain it. Maybe it was a simple slumber party. You people are just making a very bad situation worse by slandering people. I would think you have enough to deal with as it is without writing lies about someone. I would suggest that you stop. You have absolutly nothing to gain by slandering me, and by using kids to do this. Remember it can be proved very very eaisly exactly where things are entered from a computer. Anyone can sign someone eleses name to comments. I honestly wonder if Chris, Mackey, Caitlyn really made these remarks about me or if some other person too gutless to use their real name is slandering me. I would strongly suggest you stop now.
