Please Let the District Know Your Thoughts on Their Website

It's a fairly short and simple survey but please, if you have issues with the website, let them know.

I wish they would fix the broken links to the archive documents.

Yes! Although I do have a new link to the Moss Adams report and will put it up shortly.

I started the survey, but got too distracted by that question about what I couldn't find on their website... I don't suppose things like clear descriptions of programs, curricula, how MTSS will work, an actual plan for how they'll reduce the achievement gap, evaluation results, high school capacity plans, etc. were quite what they were looking for. But they're what I've been looking for, to no avail.

A staff directory with email addresses (or including these on the school webpages, as they were on the old website) would sure be helpful. Since all the addresses include the person's middle initial, it is not as if one can just figure them out. They told me back in October or so that this would be fixed soon, but no sign of it yet.

Tuesday Open Thread

The speaker list is up for the Board meeting tomorrow; not as packed as I thought with just four people on the waitlist.

Breaking It Down: Where the District Might Close Schools

Update 2: an absolutely fabulous interactive map made by parent Beth Day (@thebethocracy on Twitter - she covers Board meetings and is fun to read).   end of update    Update 1: Mea culpa, I did indeed get Decatur and Thornton Creek mixed up. Thanks to all for the correction. end of update   I suspect some who read this post will be irate. Why do this? Because the district seems very hellbent on this effort with no oversight skid marks from the Board.    To clearly state - I do not believe that closing 20 schools is a good idea. I think they hit on 20 because they thought it might bring in the most savings. But the jury is still out on the savings because the district has not shown its work nor its data. I suspect closing schools and THEN leasing/renting them is the big plan but that means the district really has to keep the buildings up.   But this district, with its happy talk about "well-resourced schools" is NOT acknowledging the pain and yes, gr...
