Good for the district; they are reporting that more than 500 people attended their Family and Community Engagement Symposium last Saturday. Their account of it included some good photos.
B.F. Day Elementary is redesigning its school playground and looking for input. There will be a meeting on Tuesday, November 15th at 9:15 am with parents, staff and community to seek ideas.
Lowell APP students got very lucky with a visit from children's author (and member of the Decemberists), Colin Meloy. What I thought was great is that he talked about the book, Wildwood, , did a Q&A and then asked them to imagine Discovery Park as a new setting for the book. The kids came up with - what else? - Candy Country.

Has anyone heard a more...balenced account of this? She implied that the "left wingers" were trying to control the principal on this. I don't know any parents with kids there but I'd love to know more.

Mel, this is trolling. If this really happened, I think you'd hear from JSIS parents with - real - names. Of course Betsey (or Dori's lame producer) would love to know more. Just like they drummed up a few more listeners with their bogus Easter Egg as Spring Spheres story. (That one never happened either.)
