Again? Parents STILL Pushing for Interim Plan Re-Vote
Apparently two NE parents met with Marty McLaren recently to plead with her to consider a revote on the amendment on the interim plan for 2013-2014.
To whit:
In order for a re-vote to happen, a Board member who voted in favor of Amendment 2 (McLaren, Patu, Smith-Blum, or Peaslee) must motion for a re-vote. That motion can then be seconded by another Board member. The desired outcome of a re-vote would be for the Board to reconsider their January 31 vote and, hopefully, vote in favor of opening Jane Addams as a comprehensive middle school now rather than waiting a year.
Yes, I'm sure it is desired but they DID take a vote already.
To re-vote, based on NO new evidence would be wrong and seriously undermine the Board's credibility.
The e-mail goes on to encourage other parents to contact any of the four who voted in favor of the amendment to put it forth again at the next Board meeting (next Wednesday the 6th.)
