April 29, 2011

Dear Families,

Thank you for your messages of support to teachers for the rich experience your child has at the High School.  This is an intense time for all of us and we appreciate the kind words.  On behalf of everyone here, thank you.

I write to inform you of what we are working on and the process (although it is too short a timeline) we are employing.  Our first task is to identify ideas for accomplishing what we do with 3.24 less FTE (teachers).  This impacts schedule options. 

Our process will include the following:
  • a session to review schedule option ideas
  • a survey that will be coming from the superintendent
  • a review of data from the survey
  • a parent and student forum
  • schedule development
  • schedule adoption
  • course guide development
  • forecasting for students

No decisions have been finalized; we are in a review and development process.  Your input and patience is greatly appreciated.

Kindly,

Paula Robinson
