Simply put there is a lot of mythology in this presentation.<br /><br />Mel, could you please do a separate thread on this. I think anyone on a waitlist or anyone at a school with a waitlist may have a few things to say. <br /><br />https://www.seattleschools.org/UserFiles/Servers/Server_543/File/District/Departments/School%20Board/16-17agendas/05_24_2017/20170524_Agenda_packet.pdf<br /><br />kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01322661098626555834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28765366.post-82479923396535372652017-05-23T23:56:17.016-07:002017-05-23T23:56:17.016-07:00Hi, I am John working in IT company.

It is open to the public but no testimony or input is given. However you could email the Board with you thoughts or provide the Board with written comments before the meeting starts. <br /><br />I think doing so would provide them with backup should they want to push back on issues like school staffing or waitlists.Melissa Westbrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17179994245880629080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28765366.post-29057217531144731552017-05-22T22:38:45.145-07:002017-05-22T22:38:45.145-07:00There is a May 24 board meeting addressing budget,...There is a May 24 board meeting addressing budget, staffing, and waitlists?

Any insights? Is this what the graduation policy waiver discussion is about?<br /> <br />Maybe I missed an update, but I suspect issues are about to hit our students!<br /><br />-skeptical-Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
