I do not agree with sharing the campus, it is unfair to our students. My kids are in sports, Independence kids should have priority using the softball field, gym etc. I do not want my child's grades dropping because she had to stay late for practice . Why cant these charter schools use the adult education building across the street. Stop using our campus. It is not fair.

Since when is the goal of Charter Schools allowed to be the disruption of the education of students in regular Public Schools. High Schools are made to contain ONE school. Students should not be made to feel unwanted and undervalued in their own school.

I understand that the students of Charter schools have been indulging in illegal activities. This creates an unsafe environment for the IHS students.

The charter school students have become a nuisance and are always causing problems with us, the students. They also dirty the bathrooms and make them unusable.

4000 students for a high school is just crazy.

I'm shania vios i go to independence high school and I am one of the students thats being affected by charter schools taking over inde. Now, We dont have a classroom for american govt. but before my economics class were just sharing a room to a chinese class. isn't too awful? that the principal let that happen? and then accept charter school on our school? Now they found a teacher that would teach us american govt. but its not sure yet. even though the teacher dont want to teach us because he already teaching us history and economics. i hope someone stop this charter schools taking over Independence. I'm a senior and I dont want that when I graduate my fellow students would also going to have problems on rooms. because they can't study. and Independence high school should think about that.

A campus built for 1 comprehensive HS should not house 4. ZERO benefit for IHS community.

This should not be allowed to happen, all students have the right to a safe place for their education, and this is clearly not working!! Changes must be made!!

Charters schools shouldn't even be allowed to share property with public schools. They are privately funded they should get their own space!

The use of Independence High School as a :-Ocampus for 4 schools may make sense in paper. However, the lack of well-thought out organization is actually damaging to all students (and staff). I urge you to address these problems and act on solutions, rather than put these issues off. To do so would create greater risk,

The district needs to pay attention to reality, this is going to make a huge impact in how each student will not only pursue education, but their favorite extracurricular activities.
