CROSS EXAMINATION BY MR. THOMPSON:

Q. Mrs. Kitzmiller, I'm Richard Thompson. I'm representing the defendants in this case. How many school board meetings did you attend in the year 2004?

A. Off the top of my head, I attended in November and December, that probably would have been four.

Q. When is the first time you attended a school board meeting in 2004?

A. It would have been in November.

Q. In November?

A. Yes.

Q. That was after the policy itself was voted on by the school board, is that correct?

A. Correct.

Q. And so you really were not involved or did not hear of the debate that was going on in the school board on that particular policy, personally hear that debate, is that correct?

A. I had no personal knowledge, no.

Q. You had no personal knowledge of it?

A. No.

Q. Now, also most of the information that you just gave your counsel was based upon your reading of accounts in the newspapers, is that correct?

A. That's correct.

Q. And so you don't know whether those accounts were accurate or not as they reflected the debate of the school board when they were determining whether to implement the policy or not, is that correct?

A. I would have to say that's correct.

Q. Okay. Now, you were referred to a newsletter that you got in February 2005, is that correct?

A. Correct.
