Snow days

Good morning!
First, I want to thank all of you who attended the deliberative session Saturday. The turn out was far better than I expected. Don't forget the ballot vote on
March 8th!

Snow seems to be dominating the thought process of many of us! February is not over yet and we have had five snow days to date. If we have no more and the floods avoid us, the last day of school right now is June 22nd. This isn't too bad. BUT, if we get more days and go into the last week of June, it becomes more of an issue.

I'd like to get some feedback on ideas of how to make up days if we do get into the last week. The timing is too close to do anything for February vacation. What are your thoughts about making up a few days during April Vacation? Having school on Saturdays? Other ideas? I am not in favor of extending the school day unless absolutely necessary.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Deliberatvie session

Good afternoon,
I want to remind you that the school district deliberative session is scheduled for this Saturday, 2/5/11 at 9:00am in the Laurence Pettengill Hall at the Ellis School. This will provide an opportunity for the voters of Fremont to hear about what is taking place throughout the school district as well as gain an overview of the budget for next year.
I hope that you can make this important meeting.
Bill Lander
