......................PLEASE READ IN IT'S ENTIRETY..................... RESPOND BY: August 12th Dear Parents, In response to your recent inquires related to making our coming year an even more successful one, we are sending out this petition to request your signature and support. This petition will show the school administration that several parents have shared some concerns with us so that we can facilitate a discussion with them. Though there are several discussion items, below are the top two concerns: 1) School Start Times: adjust start time 15-25 minutes (~8:00 a.m. start) in consideration of young kids getting up too early. 2) Language: to those who will have language class, parents have suggested alternate options that are more in line with the global marketplace and future business/social trends (i.e. Spanish and Cantonese instead of Hindi and Turkish). Again, all you need to do is sign this petition by August 12th to show support for your children!! If there are any questions, please email: [email protected] [email protected]

August 6, 2013

I am gathering the feedback from all of you to present a clear case to the administration for these changes. Text three other parents this link today and urge them to add their names to our list. We cannot ignore the necessity of these start times or the curriculum adjustments for our students.

August 6, 2013

The momentum behind these school policy changes is growing fast and shows the administration that parents are ready for a real conversation. Text this link to three other families at the school today to make sure our concerns about start times and language classes keep building steam.

This school needs to listen to the parents for once. We know what our kids need better than the admin board does.

The early start time is brutal for the little ones. They are exhausted by the time they get home. Please consider moving it back a bit.

Why are we still doing Hindi and Turkish? Spanish is way more practical for living in the US honestly.

Cantonese would be a huge asset for the kids later on. Changing the language options just makes sense for the future.

8am is much more reasonable for working parents and the students too.
