PETITION TO DIRECTOR’S COUNCIL

Massey is considering a change to its current timetabling system which provides students the ability to take full-year and semestered courses (moduflex) to one that only offers semestered courses. Massey is the only school in our area that offers the Moduflex timetabling system. It is an integral part of Massey’s strong academics and it is what makes Massey successful. The system has widespread support of the students, faculty, and alumni. Massey has already been successfully using the system for a few decades. Changing it to semestered system will take away the preferred option of many academically driven students and will be highly detrimental to their pursuits as well as the overall education of other students at Massey. Our education system is about providing the best opportunities to all the students for their optimal development. The current Moduflex system at Massey is achieving this objective very well. It provides students with the benefits of semestered courses and full year courses and thus satisfies the needs of every student. As parents, we wish to provide our children with a quality education. We want to urge the school board to value education over other considerations. We strongly oppose the proposed change to Massey High School’s Moduflex system to a fully semestered system.
