IMPORTANT MEETING ON WEDNESDAY!!!

Please, please try to show up at this meeting (see below) on WEDNESDAY. It is important that we hear first-hand what the WCPSS Administration is telling County Commissioners about mandatory year-round school attendance. It is vital that citizens pack this meeting room to show that they are not giving up! It is my understanding that County Commissioners can at least control when the bond money is dispersed. WCPSS wants an advance on some of the funds so they can jump right in with their MYR plans. The longer we have to try to change things, the better!

"Gurley said commissioners will get a briefing Wednesday from school
staff on how the district is handling the year-round conversions,
including what options will be given to families who want to stay on
a traditional calendar. The work session will begin at 9 a.m. in the
Wake County Office Building, 337 South Salisbury Street in downtown
Raleigh. It's being held in lieu of the originally scheduled joint
meeting with the school board."
