Grad Letter



Dear Mr. Tim Regher, (school board chairperson)

I am in the grad class of 2007 which is graduating this year. I have an issue with the way that the communicating of the planned events for this grad class.

The issue that I would like to bring up is the ridiculousness of the school not allowed to talk about the dance and roller-skating activities because they do not support them. And this leads to confusion among students and parents who do not know what is going on because of the school not properly communicating.

The reason that I think that people are confused about these activities is because they are planned by the parents and the school does not want anything to do with them because they go against tradition. And because of this students are getting limited, vague information from friends and the limited amount of information from the letters that are sent home.

All this confusion could be very easily stopped in my opinion, if the board would simply let the teachers talk about the dance, even if they do not agree with the idea of M.E.I. holding dances, at least let people talk about it so that the students and even the teachers know what exactly is going on.
So my suggestion is even if it is not supported by the school board it would be beneficial to future grades to let the teachers properly inform the grad class of exactly what is going on for them.

I would also just like to say that I have had an amazing experience with this school. It has provided a positive, friendly and welcoming learning environment. And I would just like to thank you for that.

Sincerely,




Tyler Wall
