Impact of Independence HS sharing with 3 Charter Schools

The teachers have to whistle at them to get in class

As a future student at Independence, I am concerned of these problems.

San Jose is full of empty business buildings. Send some of these schools there. Safety first for the IHS students. C/o 95

The school should not have to be taken away and shared with a charter school leaving no space for the independence high school students . They will also interfere with athletics & breaks ect . We independence high school have a right to not share our school with a charter school

SIXERS

I think it's selfish of the other schools to try and use our school, can't they just do with what they have?

Chester schools shouldn't be taking over this is independence high school not independence high school and charters schools. We are a high school that deserves to be our own not shared with others. People from the charter schools are being loud and noisy when we are in sessions and our sports team don't get enough time to practice, especially badminton, badminton may not be talked a lot but the players in badminton team know what we have to schedule our practices around the charters schools

I was told Independence is on the Board's agenda on February 4, 2016 (instead of January 21, 2016). Please come to support Independence. on February 4.

IHS needs space for their students first.

Not a happy IHS parent.

Three Charter schools is far too much for any one high school to house especially when the school itself, with its own student body has over 3000 students. The toll it's taking on the campus environment is not on the charter school students who are essentially visitors on the campus but the Independence High School students. It seems LAZY on the districts part to not figure out a way to support the charter schools' needs without compromising the educational needs of Independence High School students, faculty, and the school itself. Find another placement for TWO of the charter schools if not all three.

Not fair for IHS teachers.

IHS is our school and should be first priority. Our school should be reserved to suit the needs of IHS students, not other charter schools.

Treat our school with respect

Sixth year Independence parent: One small charter in their own space on campus was okay. Three growing charters sharing all the campus facilities with the 3,000 Independence students is not working.

I'm concerned about the art block as well. We only have one dark room for photography and I don't believe our administration is willing to spend any money on OUR needs, especially not a new dark room. What will that mean for the future of the course that's been going strong for YEARS? We only have one class and one teacher; this isn't right.

Since majority of Charter schools are created through government influence, why not the government create new campuses to accommodate such demands? Instead of causing the primary school problems and more issues on top of what a regular public institution experience.

I have several students who seem unable to 'not hookup' with students who are out of class. Many of those who are on our campus are out of bounds charter school students who ignore the IHS staff. It's nice to give students many options, but the charter schools just don't blend well with a large, open campus community.

I want clean restrooms with proper locks and seat covers . Thank you

not a 4th charter school, please. I DON'T WANT TO SHARE CLASSROOMS
