[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, it might be worth rescheduling and announcing the meeting over the listserve for current Brent parents.[/quote]

Nobody IB will be excluded from the activities of the working group, which will meet regularly at least until the end of the year.

A small number of rising IB parents will meet tomorrow to discuss how to get more information about the DCPS boundary review from the powers that be.  Parents will also discuss how to create a structure enabling all IB parents, and OOB with sibling, to provide input on the DCPS boundary review to the Brent LSAT, DCPS and the DC City Council.  No input will be solicited, or provided, before the early fall.

Brent parents with kids already in the school emailed futurebrent@yahoo.com, the email address on the green fliers that went up last month, and/or came to the boundaries meeting at Brent on April 11th.  Others are free to get on the listserv the same way.

I am a bit confused.  Aren't the LSAT and PTA already established and able to solicit and process input from parents.  What is the purpose of an autonomous group that seems to be comprised primarily of parents who do not have children at Brent?  And why do you believe the powers that be at DCPS will share any information with the "working group."  There is a reason redistricting initiative has been conducted in secrecy up to now.[/quote]
