[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a little concerned by their inability to answer questions. It seems like at this point they should have at least a rough sense of how many teachers are transferring and how many are staying. The incoming principal of MV8 should have her facts straight about DCI (it's 60%, not 80%). They should have a specific concrete plan on how to address the outdoor play issue. The response to how are you going to handle nearly 300 new students was essentially, oh, it'll be fine. We all know there will be growing pains, and that's fine, but there's a difference between hiccups and chaos, and it's hard to tell where they'll be on that spectrum next year. [/quote]

I felt like the response to the outdoor play situation was clear.  It will be one of three options--redo existing play structure, use existing structure, or Turkey Thicket.  Prospective families need to decide whether they are alright with all three options.  The middle school question is probably not the most pressing of her concerns.  The schedule/ curriculum/ school climate will be modeled after the existing program.  Staffing is probably not complete.  Many schools and districts are just beginning the hiring season.  [/quote]
