The subject line in this email is "The mayoral control diversion." 

My sense is that this is not a diversion (for many reasons) and that it has a 
direct bearing on the Regional Academy, right Bill? No?

All:



While the issue of mayoral control burns on, the work on the Regional Academy
continues.  We will be having our next large-group general meeting on
Thursday, April 15th at 4 p.m.  The location will be the Strong Museum of
Play. Please save the date.  More information will follow.  All group
leaders will provide a synopsis of their completed small group
activities.  Also, at that time, we will discuss the formulation of the
second phase of small work groups.  We will be addressing:



-transportation

-teacher recruitment

-professional development

-student admissions

-board governance

-school governance

-internships

-contractual arrangements with suburban districts



As a precursor to the April 15th meeting, anyone interested in participating or
leading one of the above groups, please let me know.



Peace,



Bill

I am concerned the political fight is distracting us from actually solving the
problem.  My understanding is that we are a group of people that
understands the problem goes beyond any governance process and that the
Regional School could do more to solve this problem than any other. 



If anything, this debate gives us an opportunity to convey a message that we
need to be working towards solutions and oh by the way....  



I am not saying that we stop opposing mayoral control, but I would like to see
us making progress towards a regional school.   Do we have working
committees at this time?  What are the next steps?  I know this may not
be where people are at, but I joined this effort to solve problems.
