    Superintendent Sends Out Letter Addressing Parent Concerns About Extending School Day

    Decatur Metro | March 7, 2011

    Parents are writing in about a letter they just received from Superintendent Phyllis Edwards about CSD’s plans to extend the school day for K-3 and high school students. You can read the letter in its entirety HERE.

    In the letter, the Superintendent details a list of considerations that need to be taken into account regarding a revised school day and reiterates that there is no action item on tomorrow night’s School Board agenda regarding this, and that she will not make a final decision on this topic until after Spring Break.  Also, to reassure the community that she is listening, the Superintendent says that she met with all the school principals on this topic today and will seek feedback from CSD’s teachers.
