SPECIAL MEETINGS
Tuesday, August 13
--6:00 PM. The first meeting of the Grady High School Local School
Council. It is open to the public.
This is the first year that Grady will be implementing the Local School
Council. I'm sure that one of our priorities will be to increase our
profile and thus our effectiveness.
The Local School Council is an advisory body made up of two parents, two
teachers, two community business leaders, and the principal. It is
designed to apprise the school board of needed changes at individual
schools. It also brings together three distinctive groups of stakeholders
in order that they can discuss positive and specific ways to better the
overall school community. It should be a great organ for specific and
meaningful reform once it becomes a more ingrained part of the decision
making process.
--6:00 P.M. Atlanta Board of Education Charter Review Commission Meeting -
Hearing for District 3 August 13th, 6-7 PM Inman Auditorium
All the public hearings are city-wide in that anyone can come and speak to
the issues at hand. One issue is how the Board of Education operates;
specifically, how many board members we have, how they are elected and
term length. Few people are coming to the hearings. Non-attendees miss the
opportunity to voice their opinions.
The Inman community and the CINS community are encouraged to spread the
word and to attend these hearings. They are important in helping the
Commission hear from the public.
**We know there are many more events that the Grady Community wants to
know about. Please help us by sending event notices and calendars to calendar@gradyhighschool.org
