Mt Rose Committee Information

We will be holding a meeting on Thursday December 17th at 7:45am for parents who are interested in working with our Area Superintendent, Richard Swanberg and myself to provide input on our school overcrowding plan. Please note that being part of this group will require flexibility and several visits to the school during school hours in the coming weeks.

Contacts and Research Tabs

I have added a lot of great information onto two new tabs.  They're kind of hidden if you're looking at the blog on a phone, so I wanted to give everyone a heads up.  Please look for the "Home" line with a little arrow at the end.  It's at the top of the page.  If you touch the little arrow, you can select the other two tabs and get all the info on the Board of Trustee's (find out who represents you) and read some of the research that supports our school as a model for others to follow!

Overcrowding Committee to be Formed!

Just got this from Krissy:

Hi everyone! I just received word that our overcrowding proposal for an extension to allow us more time has been approved! So...we will be forming a parent and staff overcrowding committee (approx 6 people) to meet either bi-weekly, or monthly to come up with a plan for Mt Rose. I'm meeting with district officials right after Thanksgiving then we will let you know how the committee will be formed. Thank you for all of your support! I'm truly thankful for our awesome school and all of you!! Enjoy your Thanksgiving everyone!!
