I just found out about a large group of us meeting at University School tonight, Monday March 10th at 6:00 PM. We have fought the stats and have succeeded in making the analysis more fair and honest. At the same time, this is no consolation to parents of students at University or Meadow's schools. As long as the current evaluation process continues, two schools will still be identified for closure. This is unacceptable.
It is time for us to all work together towards a common solution.
Below is the original text of the meeting invitation for tonight. Hope to see you there!
Meeting MONDAY 6:00 PM at University Elementary MPR
This meeting is for ALL SCHOOLS still wanting to speak at the March 18th school board meeting. This is the first step for a Grassroots Movement that has begun that is uniting the district to work together towards keeping All schools open and for finding a “Real” solution to budget issues that face all of us now and into the near future. Ventura County Supervisor, Linda Parks, is interested in attending this meeting as well as other local government representatives who are interested in our cause.
The main focus on Monday night will be for us all to coordinate our efforts for the upcoming School Board Meeting on the 18th. Our focus has to be reviewed...this is no longer about fighting the individual statistics or talking about how wonderful our individual schools are - this is about UNITY and speaking about our goals as a school district to fight school closures and budget concerns in general.
The PTA's from all CVUSD schools are being invited, so this is not just a University gathering. We welcome and need all support!!!!
See you there,
Ron Ballen
