We will hold our 2nd Community Meeting on Monday, March 22nd from 6:30-8:00 pm in the community room. At this meeting the School Site Council will be sharing the finalized budget for the 2010-2011 school year. We had our first community meeting on Monday, March 8th, with the following outcomes:
- Share the preliminary 2010-2011 Lakeshore budget reflecting the deep budget cuts
- Prioritize our consultant programs with collaboration with the PTA
