[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, I still do not understand: If this "transition day" is for K, 6 and 9, new transfer students or special education students, what is the guidance for all of the teachers and students for whom that DOES NOT apply to? Stay home?[/quote]

That was exactly the question the teachers had which is why CO came to the BOE meeting saying to make it only a half day and then get some feedback to determine if it needed or should be a whole day.  There was balking at that because some working parents might have to take off half a day or find childcare for that half a day. SO now everyone has to brainstorm a whole day and still await guidance on what everyone else is supposed to be doing.

[b]I can’t wait to hear how some of the student groups feel about folks wanting them to essentially do first day of school activities two days in a row.[/b][/quote]

Yes, this was something I put in the survey comments. If the transition day is going to have a pep rally, an activities fair, etc, wouldn't they also want to do those same things for the returning students the next day or at least sometime that week?[/quote]
