[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find this thread, and other similar complaints, kind of odd.  FCC is a small place, and its easy to get information.  Do you not pay any attention to calendar discussions?  Going to school on Jan 2nd was established over a year ago as a tradeoff for taking the additional religious holidays this year, but not having to go an additional week in June.  I believe the original calendar proposal for this year had us in school until June 23rd.  The school board then took a careful look at the calendars, did a TON of public engagement and wrote a new calendar policy.  This is the only year we will go to school on federal holidays.  The SB decided to have school on religious holidays and not have it on federal holidays.   
I agree school Monday was kind of strange- but I was fully prepared for it and see no point in fussing about it bc I know it is not going to happen again.[/quote]

Who’s fussing about Monday? I’m not aware of anyone posting in this thread that THEY had calendar issues.

If you’re going to carry water for Noonan, though, maybe ask why they can’t seem to communicate that the parking lot is hosed? THAT would’ve been nice to know but then it would require actual work from that office instead of navel-gazing.[/quote]

ha- I think Noonan is an arrogant misogynistic a*** who appears to need a fair amount of public adulation- not about to carry his water :)  I don't know about the parking lot issue- did they take some of it away over break for the construction?  that definitely should have been communicated- I find the communications and transparency surrounding secondary campus parking/ access etc to be lacking for sure.[/quote]

I’m a different PP.  Parking has been a hassle all year.  Students complained in the fall about not having enough spaces so they took additional spots away from the teachers.   That made it tight and created resentment for obvious reasons.   Now that additional spots are gone for construction, there have not been enough spaces.   We received an email today saying that they would convert some student spots back to teacher spots since they were not issued and we could park in them immediately.  We were assured there was plenty of space, which is not true to anyone who actually parks in that lot.  It was poor planning to issue any student spots this year.  [/quote]

So now folks are getting nails in tires and other fun debris issues because the parking lot is effectively a live construction site. Admin’s response? “That’s too bad, now go away.”

At least this principal is on his way out. [/quote]

Which principal is going?[/quote]

The grapevine says Mr Serentis is on his way out, not necessarily of his own choosing.[/quote]

I heard differently, that more than one of the administrators are looking at options in other districts.  Not that they are being forced out.  [/quote]
