Community Conversation #1
Today was the first Community Conversation meeting of the year. I have the opportunity to meet with parents and community members to discuss Saline Area Schools. There were about 20 people who stopped in at My Favorite Cafe and shared their thoughts on a variety of issues. I would like to thank them for taking the time to give me feedback on the current practices of our district.
A few of the items we discussed were:
- Development of a Suggestion Box on the website
- Collective Negotiations with Support Staff
- Use of Moodle for sharing information with parents
- School Calendars – How to manage them?
- Academic Advising
- Weighted Grades
- High School Sign
- Supporting students mental health
- Washtenaw County Enhancement Millage
The next Community Conversation is scheduled for Thursday, October 22nd from 7:30-9:00am at Benny’s Bakery, 111 W. Michigan Ave. Please stop by, say hello, and bring any thoughts about the district you feel I should know.
