Tom Finucane To Run
Santa Fe Community School
Tom Finucane announced he is moving to Santa Fe, New Mexico
to run the Santa Fe Community School. Tom, along with Bob
Jordan and Mike Nally, had been working on a proposal to help
Los Angeles street gangs find a better way of living. Called
Rocky Top Academy, it described itself as “a program to break
the crime and poverty cycle of inner-city youth and to plant
the seeds for establishing self-confidence and socialization,
especially among gang members. The discovery of respect for
self, respect for others, and respect for nature will enable
them to become valued citizens and productive adults”. The
goal was to dry up the gangs recruitment pool. However, Tom
reports they do not seem well enough connected politically
to get if funded by the City of Los Angeles rebuilding committee.
