Parent Panel Town Hall Invitation
As noted above, on Friday, March 28th , we will be holding a Parent Town Hall Discussion to allow parents a chance to meet the EDS candidates. We will have 55-minute sessions with each candidate individually whereby questions previously submitted will be asked of each of the candidates. 


While we would love to give everyone a chance to ask questions, we must limit the number of active participants due to time constraints and so we will do a random draw to fill the panel on March 8th. That said, we feel that parent involvement is imperative to Charter School operations and so we are inviting all parents to attend the panel discussion. All parents in attendance will also be able to provide feedback to us at the end of the night through a short (anonymous) survey. More details on the location of the panel discussion with be sent in March.

If you have any questions please email the BOD at [email protected].
