Parent asks Weber School District to offer German at Westfield High; district offers follow-up meeting
Summary
A parent requested Weber School District add German at Westfield High School; district officials said they would follow up with the parent and principal to explore options and staffing.
A parent told the Weber School District board that her son, who has taken German at Rocky Mountain Junior High, would like to continue German at Westfield High School and that a teacher is willing to split time to teach the class.
Nut graf: Stephanie Howenstein said Rocky Mountain Junior High has a teacher, identified in the comment as Carol Muggleston, who could split time to teach German at Westfield. The parent asked the board to consider offering German at Westfield so students transitioning from Rocky Mountain can continue the language.
Board members offered to follow up. A board member said Superintendent Butters and Principal Martini have discussed the topic and invited the parent to meet with district staff; the board asked staff member Pam Wallen to reach out to arrange a meeting.
Ending: District staff offered to meet with the parent and school administrators to review staffing, scheduling and demand for the course.
