Getting ready for April 12 school board meeting

This past Tuesday morning there was a parent's meeting at MMIB. We talked about a desire to influence the school board regarding decisions for the 11th and 12th grade years of the IB program.

There were concerns expressed about the School Board's commitment to the program, their understanding of what it takes to have it be a successful endeavor. We heard each other indicate various opinions about the best location for the 11th and 12th grade, that there had been talk of moving those years to South Iredell and combining with the other Iredell county IB program for those years at that more central location.

This site is intended to gather information and share it with participants in the process, so opinions can be identified and clarified, and supplemented by as much hard data as possible.

Our near term effort for this page is to prepare to put together a coherent presentation for the school board meeting on April 12.

Welcome to the blog, please roam around, and weigh in. As the internal task force volunteers (self-identified on Tuesday) gather information, this is the place we'll share it. Likewise, the survey results will be published here.
