Highland View PTO:  Greendale School District Needs You (Seriously.)

Hello Highland View Families!

Earlier this evening I attended the first meeting the school district put on to help gather criteria, opinions, and ideas from the school community to narrow down their search for a new superintendent.

There were eight people there.  One was the facilitator.  One was the district secretary, taking notes.  One was a school board member.   Of those last five, one didn't say a word the whole time.

I guess what I'm getting at, is that this is a great opportunity to have your voice heard and help make sure the district chooses a new superintendent who's focused on the issues that are important to you.  (Or even aware of the issues important to you when it comes to giving your student the best possible education.)

There are two more meetings scheduled, and childcare is available at both.  The next two meetings are at Greendale High School:

Wednesday, November 11, at 6:30-7:30 p.m., in the MPR (cafeteria) 
Tuesday, November 17 at 6:30-7:30 p.m., in the library

I hope you'll be able to make it to one or both of these meetings.  You're all parents who are active and have taken steps to make your students' experience and education a priority, and as such, Greendale needs to hear your voices most of all.

Thanks!

Aleks
