I too have a huge issue with some of the decisions that the school board has made recently, this being one of them. I wrote to the entire board myself, including Dr. V and Karen Holacka, only to be smoke blown up by ?>#. I have a kindergartener this year so won't benefit from it but am extremely irritated in the fact that they made everybody but 6 schools for next year. If they would have made only six schools next year, then I think Kevin Stevenson, one of hte board members, email me back expressing somewhat of a concer regarding this issue. The minutes from the last meeting aren't posted on the web site yet - maybe they are delaying on purpose.
I also know that apparently, now you won't be able to transfer to a school that offers full day if your does not.
I am extremely irritated with this whole decision and the fact that we are somewhat limited on what we can even do as taxpayers/parents. If you have any suggestions, I know we can speak at the board meeting, that would be great, but sadly I think we are stuck with what these elected officials decide for us.
