School Closure Meetings Scheduled For This Week

This is Principal Ryan with an important message regarding upcoming community meetings - your feedback is needed! The Point Loma Cluster Schools Foundation will conduct three meetings regarding the proposed closure of schools in Point Loma.

Please mark your calendar and try to attend one of the informational meetings scheduled for Monday, October 17th at 6:30 pm or Tuesday, October 18th at 9:15 am. Both of these meetings will be held in Dana's Jackson Theater. These are informational community meetings where participants will learn more about the proposed school closures, ask questions, and provide general input to community stakeholders.

A town hall meeting has been scheduled for Monday, October 24th at 7:00 pm at the Point Loma High School Performing Arts Center. SDUSD School Board Member Scott Barnett and other district staff will be at this meeting for the purpose of listening and collecting feedback regarding the proposed closures.

I would like to thank the parents and community members who used the Dana blog to post comments and concerns regarding the proposed closure of Dana Middle School. The PLCS Foundation has developed their own blog for the same purpose. Please go to the cluster website and take a moment to post your thoughts and opinions here: http://plcluster.blogspot.com/2011/10/sdusd-considers-closing-cluster-schools.htmlhttp://plcluster.blogspot.com/2011/10/sdusd-considers-closing-cluster-schools.html

Your feedback is important - please get involved and help us create alternative solutions. Thank you!
