[quote=Anonymous]Goodness, my impression is that Martha Holley-Miers and the IFA have done an admirable job mediating the half-day issue, considering that the administration says this change is necessary to improve teaching, while some parents are outraged about it and other parents are not outraged at all and support the school's decision. It seems you are blaming the IFA for not convincing the administration to do what you want it to do, even though Martha does not have the power to overrule the administration, nor is your opinion universally held by other parents. The administration has said that aftercare will be provided. Our aftercare provider, the Y, does a fine job. It covers teacher work days and school breaks and its fees are extremely reasonable. Not donating to the IFA only hurts your children, who benefit greatly from its community-building efforts. -Shawn Zeller[/quote]
