screengrabs of the presentation tonight are collected in one photo album #rdac0313 photos.app.goo.gl/JiUhC39n3V9vMp…
multiple brief interruptions with an internet troll drawing on the whiteboard. user removed, screen cleared; presentation resumes; interrupted again by some other misbehaving individuals #rdac0313
review of the three options by Ashley from AppGeo - all details shared come directly from the storymap shared earlier #rdac0313
Guidelines for the Q&A portion #rdac0313
Clarification questions on this or that aspect of the process, redistricting; timeline for this remains to be determined - key depending upon what option is chosen; #rdac0313
The policy on student moves within district (I believe this is the proper one) franklinps.net/district/schoo… #rdac0313
The full School Committee policy manual can be found online -> franklinps.net/district/schoo… #rdac0313
School Committee decision is expected in April/May and depending upon the decision, the implementation timeline would be part of that announcement #rdac0313

The "master facilities plan" is a deeper dive than this group is chartered with. Not to be confused with the Town 'Master Plan'. The schools determined their needs and space requirements. The Town provides a top level of funding and the schools do the rest #rdac0313
question/comment on the busing policy that 'seems to be benefiting the busing company and not the students' #rdac0313
That's all for tonight, catch you next time!
