[This message was sent to the School Board]
Sharon, As I think about this I get more worried about the direction you are going with this. People certainly have the right to address the board at the community comments section of the agenda. I hope you are not implying that they will play an active part in the meeting itself. I have not been able to find any involvement with any staff in this process. I do wonder what is going through their minds right now. It appears to be done entirely outside of the administration and staff. I think the message you are giving is anything but productive. > -----Original Message----- > From: Sharon Erickson Ropes [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Saturday, February 02, 2002 5:01 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [School Board] Positive Problem-solvers > > Hi guys, > FYI: Some positive problem-solvers will be coming to the next board meeting to >address the SB during Parent/Community Comment.
