Residents urge clearer communication on co-ops, band/choir plans and grading policy

During public comment multiple residents urged clearer, earlier communication from the district on collaborative plans with Greenwood for band, choir and athletics. One community member said more information should have been given to families about the band and choir collaboration with Greenwood and added that "they would also like communication regarding the basketball co-op for next year with Greenwood;" another speaker urged improved website updates and asked whether make-up days will be required after the recent water-main break.

A teacher in the audience answered some grading-policy inquiries and the board acknowledged the concerns and said staff would review the website and communication plans. The comments prompted board members to note that more detailed family communications will be needed as interdistrict plans and athletics logistics are finalized.
