Dear McMeen Families,
I am excited to write to communicate that there will be no interruption of McMeen University!! Although there will be no interruption, we will need to keep the offerings scaled back as we did with the first trimester, but we we will be working hard to reimagine what MU will look like in the future, so that choices for kids will be enhanced.
Today, I met with Mary Varveris, Director of Extended Learning and co-founder of the MU Community School model. During our time we both had a chance to deeply reflect on the possible missteps that occurred over the last three years regarding MU. Nonetheless, we left our meeting with a new sense of commitment to ensure that we are working collaboratively with you to ensure that this program is responsive to the needs of the McMeen community.
With that said, we would like to engage in a community conversation where the goal will be to hear your voices on reimagining MU for our kids. In addition, I will share what the school needs from you, our families, in order to rebuild a sustainable program that will last well into the future.
Our community conversation will be
Monday, October 28th at 5:30pm in the McMeen library. There will be interpreters and childcare provided. Mary and I can't wait to engage in meaningful dialogue with you and take this program to new heights. This communication will be shared in Spanish and Arabic for Thursday folders.
In Partnership,
David W. Adams, Principal
