After-School Staff Meeting Today!

Please make every effort to attend today's meeting and vote. This OSSI decision is a very important one and this will be the last chance for everyone to be heard before we decide whether to accept the grant (if offered) or not. Again, the meeting is from 3:15 to 4:00pm in the library. I will facilitate an open forum discussion. At 4:00pm sharp we will vote and count the ballots.
Remember, if you are unable to attend, please see Karla before 3:00pm today (4/13) and cast your absentee ballot.
I know you are all searching your hearts and your minds for the answer that makes sense to you. I know you thinking about what is best for students and well as what is best for those of us who strive to serve students and families every day. All each of us can do is be true to our own as well as our shared values and beliefs.

Don't forget! If you have articles you want to get in the LAST 04-05 school year newsletter, the May/June issue, please email them to Karla by today, April 13th.
