Public Hearing - Part 1

We would like to thank our supporters who made it to the Keith Auditorium on Wednesday, March 27th.  With such a large turnout and a two hour time limit to the meeting, it unfortunately wasn't possible for everyone to speak.

We were particularly moved by one speaker who said she supported both innovation schools even though her own children wouldn't be eligible because they didn't live in the Taylor, Hannigan, or Gomes areas. 

Some Spanish-speaking parents talked about the difficulty they experience when they can't communicate with teachers and other staff their children's schools.  This is similar to the stories that were shared at a meeting for parents in July 2012.

Please join us again on Monday, April 1st at the Keith Middle School Auditorium at 6 pm for a continuation of the Public Hearing.  Only those who signed up on March 27th will be able to speak.
