Re: Adding length to the school day and days taught
Posted by Jessica on 7/07/07

    The last I heard was that Ms. Garrett was going to make an annoucement at
    the Superindent get together that she does every year to see how well it
    goes over. I personally think we as teachers need to email and call her
    office to give our educated opinions about these changes. She made the
    statement that many schools in OK end their day at 2:30 and that she has
    seen school busses in the mall parking lots during the school day. I
    wonder if she has considered that possibly that school bus is a vo-tech bus
    from out of town that is not wasting fuel while the driver waits for the
    students to get out of class. I also wonder exactly how many schools in OK
    get out at 2:30 and what time they started in order to do that. My school
    lets out at 3:10 and because ALL of our students ride a bus some don't get
    home until after 4:00. I agree that she needs to spend time in our schools
    away from OKC. Nothing against you guys down there but there is a lot more
    to OK schools than the big city schools.
