The problem with this event is the venue.  The Baobab Center can fit no more 
than 25 people comfortably.

Mark YOUR calendar - a dialogue on Mayoral control of RCSD. 





Mayoral control is a hot topic. But many do not have the facts needed to 
objectively evaluate the pros and cons of City hall controlling City Schools. 
We propose this dialogue featuring two opposing views. 





Parents are invited as well as their their kids to ensure that the parental and 
youth voice are part of the debate. 





Can't wait to see you!
