Vote not going home today

The Parents for a New Curtis Committee made a flyer to send out to students today. We were told yesterday by the principal that we could make a flyer so long as the information did not lean one way or the other.

The flyer was sent to the school this morning. They then forwarded it on to Mr. Terry Ingram for approval.

At 2:46 p.m., I received a call from Mr. Ingram. I asked if we could make any changes to the flyer to help make it suit their needs. He said he spoke with Dr. Thomas about the matter.

Ingram's response: "It will not be allowed to be passed out because it was not one of the two options presented at the meeting."

We still want to know what YOU want. Please email your vote with your name and address to us at CurtisVotes@yahoo.com.

They are:


___ Option 1 - Build portables behind Curtis

___ Option 2 - Use Howell portables once vacated

___ Alternative - Build portables at YMCA on Dishman

___ Doesn't matter



The school asked for our opinion. We would have liked to work with them to be able to give an accurate reflection of all parents at the school, not just the ones that can attend meetings or are active.

We will work on getting the information to the parents as best we can. Please check in to this blog for the latest information.

Vote now!

All Curtis parents should be receiving a voting form in their child's backpack today along with information about the three options. These tallies will be presented to the board on Thursday in addition to about 60 votes that the school principal collected.

We want to give everyone a voice - not just the parents who attended the meeting. We would like to go with at least 75% of the parents participating (if not 100%) so we have a more accurate reflection of how our community would like to move forward.

If you would like your vote to be known, return the form by tomorrow or email your preference with your name and address to CurtisVotes@yahoo.com.

Previous blog posts have more information on each of these options. They are:


___ Option 1 - Build portables behind Curtis

___ Option 2 - Use Howell portables once vacated

___ Alternative - Build portables at YMCA on Dishman

___ Doesn't matter


Let's hear your voice!
