"The New Albany-Floyd County Consolidated School System is soliciting public comment on how it might reconstitute its mix of schools. Stakeholders at Pine View and Silver Street elementary schools are gathering support to make the case that closing those schools would be shortsighted. We're talking with people in the community with a point of view on this issue."
We have callers scheduled (it's a call-in show, so we are dependent on community participation), and we'll go for one hour. The NAFCCSC Board of Trustees meets Monday at 7:00 p.m. and during the agenda period labeled "President's Prerogative," it is expected that a number of parents and other stakeholders will be expressing their opinions.
Callers have two options for participation. Online callers with any kind of microphone should be able to participate by merely pressing the "Click to Talk" icon on the show page. Callers away from their computers may call (347) 539-5928 (539-JWCT [Join With Callers Tonight]).
NAC readers are invited to join us with comments on the state of our schools, the "Resources and Results Committee," and the importance to the community of our neighborhood schools.
As the school board itself is in executive session at 6 p.m., we won't have the opportunity to speak live with any of them, but there should be plenty of opportunity in coming weeks to hear what they have to say. Tonight we'll hear from residents, including some who plan to address the school board during their public session.
This evening's show is sponsored by Destinations Booksellers, New Albany's full-service general independent bookstore on E. Spring Street in New Albany.
