CMS Update

My head is spinning trying to keep up with all of the information regarding the proposed changes for CMS.  Here is the link to the report that was discussed in yesterday's work session.  The biggest change to our area schools is a proposal to move Smith's Language Program to Waddell and to assign current Waddell students to South Meck, West Meck or Harding, with Harding going from a full magnet to a partial.  I did not see any mention as to whether or not the current Smith facilities would be used by another program.   Pinewood Elementary is on the list to receive "targeted assistance" for their "perception issue" since students consistently choose to opt out.  This help would come in the form of stronger PTA/PTO partnerships, amped-up community outreach and aggressive PR support through increased communications.  Please post your comments or attend our meeting with Eric Davis, Board Chair, tomorrow at 7:30am at Caribou Coffee, Park Road Shopping Center.
