SCN Athletics Summer Camp Brochure

Superintendent Dr. Paul Gordon shared the details of the April 13 meeting of the School Board, where members of the D303 Communitywide Education Facilities Committee joined district leadership in presenting and discussing the Committee’s Final Report.

“I feel we’re at a crossroads,” D303 parent and Facilities Committee Member Alice Froemling told the School Board. “We have great staff, great teachers, great people who are in our schools every day working with our kids. But we’ve achieved our great success not because of our facilities but in spite of our facilities… We have to do something.”

El superintendente, el Dr. Paul Gordon, compartió los detalles de la reunión de la Junta Educativa del 13 de abril, en la que los miembros del Comité de Instalaciones Educativas de toda la comunidad del Distrito 303 se unieron al equipo de liderazgo del distrito para presentar y discutir el Informe Final del Comité.

“Creo que nos encontramos en una encrucijada”, declaró ante la Junta Educativa Alice Froemling, madre de un estudiante del Distrito 303 y miembro del Comité de Instalaciones. “Contamos con un personal excelente, unos maestros magníficos y personas maravillosas que están en nuestras escuelas cada día trabajando con nuestros hijos. Pero hemos logrado nuestro gran éxito no gracias a nuestras instalaciones, sino a pesar de ellas… Tenemos que hacer algo.”
