TRAFFIC UPDATE
As long as we continue to have parent volunteers, we will keep both sides open for pickup. To ease traffic congestion on Allerton Street, please consider picking up your kiddos on the Warren Street pick up area.
SUPERINTENDENT'S ADVISORY COUNCIL
The charge of the council is to study the current challenges facing our district. Over the past five years, our district has seen a significant decrease in enrollment which is negatively impacting our district's budget. The council will meet once a week during the fall to study the district's challenges and to generate possible solutions. The meetings are closed to the wider community. However, the following meetings will be open to the general public, and all community members and parents are highly encouraged to attend:
Tuesday, October 16th - Board study session on proposed solutions
Monday, October 22nd - Community Input Meeting
Thursday, October 25th - Community Input Meeting
