Parent at public comment says math lab courses were removed at Liberty High, asks for follow-up
Summary
A parent at public comment said math lab courses (algebra/geometry labs) were discontinued at Liberty High School and said counselors were unavailable at the end of the year; the parent asked the district to follow up about supports for students who need extra help.
During public comment, a Zoom participant identified as Ken said his daughter attends Liberty High School and that courses designed to give extra math support'including geometry and algebra lab courses'were discontinued last year, reducing options for students who need extra assistance.
Ken said he was unable to reach counselors or principals at the end of the school year when trying to clarify his daughter's grades and asked for better access to staff and a response from the district. The board host asked him to email the board (the district's board email address was read as a resource) and noted the meeting is archived on YouTube for reference.
The board responded to the public comment as a matter of public input and invited the parent to use the district email for follow-up so staff could connect with him and investigate course naming or scheduling changes. A district representative also said some courses may have been renamed and encouraged the commenter to contact district staff for specifics.
The board did not take formal action during the meeting on the specific course changes described by the commenter.
