Nancy Shen said...The article I was referring to was published on September 22, 2010 in the Redmond Reporter. Ms. Reith's letter in response stated that the Redmond reporter article was written when the district was seeking public input into the bond measure to be put on the ballot in February of 2010.
This response is incorrect because the Redmond reporter article was written more than 6 months after the bond levy was struck down by voters.
Therefore it is clear that the school district has not taken enough action in the last 2 years to address the overcrowding at Rosa Parks. The grade reconfiguration only delayed the population at rosa parks from reaching over 900 students this year. This move certainly helped many other schools in the district, but hardly helped Rosa Parks.
The only action the school district has taken in the last 2 years is to add additional portable classrooms and staff.
