Hi Everyone!
This is two messages sent out in one week… but this one is short and quick (unlike the previous 4 messages).
Since I’m headed out on Spring Break to watch my Freshman daughter perform in her national show choir competition in Orlando, Florida… a trip the parents paid for, not the taxpayers… and since this could be the last time these kids have this type of opportunity if the referendum fails… I wanted to get in one more message before I leave.
Here is some fantastic news to share with all of you that should make all of Franklin Township proud…
South Creek Elementary’s Jennifer Monday Wins the Armstrong Educator Award, a Coveted Award from the Indiana University School Of Education
Jennifer is considered a leader in her school and in our district. She serves as a grade level representative from her school for district-wide curriculum development work in mathematics and has been trained to be a writing coach for her peers.
And, get this, as a show of appreciation from the Franklin Township community toward Jennifer for her dedication to our kids… if you vote NO to the referendum, she loses her job because she is on the 85 teacher cut list.
I am actually at a loss for words… and that is rare!

By the way, as a side note, I failed to mention there will be no more librarians in any of the Franklin Township Elementary or Intermediate School libraries if the referendum fails. The school system won’t be able to afford it.

Have a great remainder of your week and a safe Spring Break!
