The charter renewal is official and our middle school expansion is finally approved. This fight took everything out of me but knowing our children have a home for their future makes it worth the exhaustion. Thank you for staying the course until we won.

I am a parent, grandparent, or caregiver of a child at WHIN Music Community Charter School and request that WHIN be granted a five year renewal term and an expansion into Middle School (grades 6-8).

My family has been very pleased with the academic, music, and socio-emotional program WHIN offers and believe the school represents a unique, high-quality, and necessary program for our community.

As a small school I feel very connected to the WHIN staff. Their focus on supporting me as a parent as well my family and community is deeply felt by all that are within the WHIN world. They are accessible, thoughtful, and very communicative.

Due to the unique nature of WHIN's music and academic program I do not believe there is a Middle School in CSD6 that would allow my Childs continued success after 5th grade. As such, please approve the charter expansion request so WHIN can grow in a K-8 school.

In short, I fully support and endorse WHIN Music Community Charter School's full renewal an expanstion to Middle School.

Sincerely,

Updates

Reaching this level of momentum proves that our community refuses to accept the loss of what we have built together. The work ahead remains heavy but seeing this many people demand a future for our children keeps me moving forward.

My grandson is on the spectrum and finally he is enrolled in a school that understands the issues and know how to deal with him. At WHIN he has made substantial progress and is doing things neither his parents or us(his grandparents) thought he could do. I support the expansion of WHIN school 100%.

I am the grandmother of one of the students that attend your school and I'm very proud of the way she has advanced since she's been attending the school I think it's a wonderful idea to expand it so that students can attend there past the 5th grade

My daughter loves WHIN. She has SPD and this is the ONLY school where she is successful. I support the renewal and expansion of their charter.

I would like to see my kid goes to the middle school with her school friends, especially after years of playing music together.

This school is needed in our community. All facets and the faculty and staff are needed along with parent support. This school is like no other and our children need to be afforded the opportunity to stay in such an educational/musical institution as they've experienced from elementary to middle school.
