We, the undersigned, respectfully ask that the rezoning of the Grady Cluster in Atlanta Public Schools be delayed until 2013 to allow a successful, long-term plan to be developed and approved. More time is needed to fully explore all options. Please do not rush to implement costly, disruptive "temporary" solutions for our cluster.
We request that the ABOE vote NO to the superintendent's final recommendation for the Grady Cluster, released on 3/31/12.

Enough with the rushed decisions. APS needs to actually listen to the parents for once before just doing whatever they want.
SLOW DOWN. You guys are ruining everything with these forced changes.
Just give it more time. We need a permanent fix that actually makes sense for the community.
completely agree. the district office needs to rethink their strategy. this is not fair to the families in the grady cluster.
This whole plan is a disaster waiting to happen. stop trying to fix things with these messy temporary bandaids.
