Hi Joseph. I do appreciate your concerns about Medfield's budgetary constraints and diversification. I share them, as do most other Medfield citizens WITH kids. The hiring of school aides is probable with reworking the current school budget. Change doesn't always mean higher taxes. Change can simply mean rethinking how to spend existing taxes.

I know it's a lot on the budget, but I feel all classes, in every elementary grade should have a full time aid.

Thank you for organizing this petition. We hope the Medfield Public Schools will address this issue for our children and teachers by assigning additional classroom aides for the 2017-18 year. Going forward, we hope that the district will make a deliberate effort to reduce class sizes.

My son has 25 kids in his class, which I'm told is the biggest first grade class Medfield has had in a long time. That is too much for one teacher to handle all day.

Part of the reason we all live in Medfield is because of the amazing school system for our children. Student to teacher ratios of around 25:1 are too high and prohibit teachers from delivering the quality education that Medfield is known for. We need to do everything we can to get our teachers more help and reduce the student to teacher ratios to a more manageable number.

This needs to be addressed for this class as it will continue to grow as more families move to town. The teachers need more aids or hiring an additional teacher to keep the sizes manageable for our children to be able to learn

Classes are too big. Each class should have a full time aide.
