GENERAL ASSEMBLY -
Thank you to those of you who attended and participated in last night's General
Assembly. Thanks, also, to the teachers who remained at school for the
Assembly, and to the DPTO for their participation and presentation. Unfortunately,
there were not enough parents present to make our required quorum of 1/3 of our
families. Therefore, as required by our By-Laws, we have to schedule another General Assembly. That General
Assembly will be held on Thursday, May
23, 2013, beginning at 6:00 p.m. in the Cafeteria.
On the Agenda
are:
Approval of the
Budget
Approval of the
school calendar
Election of 3 new Board members
(current candidates are Wendy Willemsen, Wendolyn Sanchez, Arnaldo Palma, and
Erica Herrera)
Discussion of the Cement Plant
that is being built near the school (we will provide Separate denuncia forms
for each family to sign. a petition that will be signed by all parents who want
to sign it.
Discovery School is parent-owned, and this is your
opportunity to make a real difference in the life and future of your child's
school. With your participation and support, we believe we can stop this cement
plant. However, without that commitment from all of our families, it will much
more difficult to raise the level of awareness and concern about it.
The DPTO is supporting the General Assembly by offering a
PIZZA PARTY to the grade who has the
highest percentage of attendance from their parents! PLEASE JOIN US AT 6:00
P.M. ON THURSDAY, MAY 23 IN
