There will be a public meeting in the Iredell County Library in meeting room B; Thursday, June 18th from 7:00 to 8:45. The purpose of this meeting is to form an organized group to address issues in the Iredell County School system.
This meeting is being organized by citizens, NOT the school system.
Most of us have tried to talk to school personnel about concerns we have for our children's treatment and education setting. Most of us have experienced a negative response and little or no change. Individually we can't make a difference.
An organized group composed of people with similar complaints and concerns CAN BE HEARD.
This group is open to parents, grandparents, and teachers. ANYONE with an interest in the treatment and education of our children is welcome. The system is currently controlled by a handful of people who use intimidation and stall tactics to maintain their position.
It is time for that control to be taken away and returned to us who entrust the future of our children to the school system that is funded by taxes that we pay.
We want to hear any problems that you have had and the concerns that you have tried to address. We have discussed a format and a way of combining everyone's experiences into a combined force that will necessitate change. There is no shortage of people who are overwhelmingly frustrated with the school system and some of its employees. This is your chance to make a difference.
Please pass this around as much as possible since the first meeting date is only a week away!
