I obtained a copy of the agreement under the Freedom of Information law. I asked Chan. Klein this very question at the Educational Panel Meeting that was recently held on Oct.7,2009, at Murray Betraum HS. He would not reply to the question. The answer is simple. The NYCLU is only looking out for the welfare of its three clients and not the good of the other 1800 girl soccer players.
