Guest Issues:

  • Francesca Amezquita brought to our attention a security concern of the new Kindergarten building. The open driveway allows anyone to enter the school property & access the kindergarten playground & building. In addition it gives the young children easy access to Oak. All agreed this is a concern. The school board submitted a letter to Father Ring with our concerns on this matter.
  • Francesca Amezquita inquired about the curriculum for each grade. She tried unsuccessfully to access this information on the web site. Mrs. Bordin showed her the current school year curriculum handouts that are available at the beginning of the school year & explained that these are handed out at back to school night.
  • Maureen Mitchell inquired whether there were any plans to introduce a second language to the lower grades. Mrs. Bordin addressed the issue explaining that currently there were not enough school minutes or funds to introduce a new subject.
  • Maureen Mitchell inquired what the schools policy is on yard duty parents playing with the students. Mrs. Bordin addressed the issue saying that the yard duty parent should only intervene with the student when necessary, as the primary function is to keep a watchful eye on the yard. Playing with the children would only distract them from this duty.
