IF YOU CAN'T COME - WRITE AND/OR CALL TODAY!

Another reminder about the MEETING tomorrow morning (see previous posting) - this from a parent opposed to the forcing of year-round schools-----

 

"To All,

If you are affected by MYR or reassignment, please attend the County
Commissioner's work session on December 20th from 9 to 12. This will
be one of the few chances you will get to see and hear what WCPSS
staff will brief the county commissioners on regarding school
conversion and what questions the CC's ask. One of the main goals
for this reassignment plan is to shuffle kids around to handle the
MYR scheme – THERE IS ENOUGH CURRENT CAPACITY IN OUR SCHOOL SYSTEM
and MYR is NOT NEEDED! Our presence will show the CCs and WCPSS that
we are not going to sit back and take this quietly. Let's demand
that the county commissions' (who,we voted for, and have stated
publicly - they are all against MYR) get answers as to why parent
have `No' choice in their children's education in Wake County. Why
some children are being bussed to MYR schools across town
for "continuity". If the WCPSS staff dodges the hard questions – we
must ask the commissioners to withhold the "advance" funds for
MYR/reassignment that the BOE has asked them to vote on January 8th.
Please make arrangements to attend. Tell everyone you can to attend –
this is important and one of our last options to stop this.

Tim"
