Letter to the Board
| 1. | Lacrosse: Our modified Lacrosse program is scheduled to begin next year. I have been approached by the superintendent of Gananda asking if we would like to have a joint program. They have some interest but aren’t large enough to run their own program. Currently they play football through a joint program with East Rochester. My initial reaction is that we want to have our own program with our own students and own controls. We would have to add Gananda’s population to our own as they determine what class we would play in. Also Gananda will always have financial problems which may cause economic support to ebb and flow. I am curious about your reactions. Are there some points that I am missing that might make it in our interest to join with them? | |
| 2. | New Voice Messaging System: Last night at 6:00 a test message went out to every staff member and parent in the district. It appears to have been very successful. We will be adding some people’s cell phone numbers and daycare centers. For our next snow day all parents and staff should know within 5 minutes of closing. | |
| 3. | Scott Freischlag: Earlier this year I talked to you about my summer meeting with Scott in which he said he wanted to be a more positive part of the district. Things have been going really well. Just last week he handled a very difficult situation with an out-of-control parent. On Thursday I brought his counseling memo of three years ago over to the Middle School so he could shred it. I think it was the right time to do this. | |
| 4. | Christmas Break: There will be no letter next week. I hope each of you have a wonderful Christmas and a safe New Year. See you in 2008. | |
