This is a quick reminder of the parent meeting scheduled on Tuesday, November 30 at the elementary school. The meeting starts at 6:30 p.m.
In a recent podcast, Dr. Fredisdorf is quoted as saying, "Another area of improvement this year will be communication with our stakeholders. Based on feedback from a recent parent survey, various communication systems are being upgraded to ensure communication is accurate, timely and convenient."
Seriously? It's time to walk the walk instead of just talking the talk.
Information on Tuesday's meeting is not posted on the district or elementary school webpages. We can't even find it in the last Friday packet either. In other words, they really don't want parents to attend.
Maybe school board members Beth Tegtmeier and Lisa Houk (the two people in charge of improving communication in the district) can help to ensure the district website is "accurate, timely and convenient," rather than spending so much time on a community newsletter featuring the board members that are up for re-election.

What parent meeting? I’ve not heard anything about a meeting tonight. It’s not on my calendar. What is the subject of the meeting? Thank you for running this blog as it is the only way that I find out what is really going on in this community!
I believe the parent meeting is for 3rd and 4th grade parents who have children in the pilots. An email was sent to these parents just prior to the Thanksgiving holiday, indicating time and place.
Thank you. I have a second grader. What are "the pilots"?
Yes, it is a wrap-up meeting for the 3rd and 4th grade standards based learning pilots. It will be held in the APR at the elementary school tonight at 6:30 p.m..
It would be advisable for all parents to attend not just 3rd and 4th grade parents. This standards based learning/grading program will be rolled out in full force once the upcoming school board election is over. It will affect all kids in every grade level so please get yourselves informed.
Hope to see you at the meeting!
