Please remember, public comments can only be made about items on the current meetings agenda.I have had one kid go to Ponderosa for sixth and seventh. At that time there was a lot of teacher turnover and she chose to do online school for eighth. My younger daughter is now in sixth at Ponderosa. They both have really enjoyed the music programs - thank you. I have a few concerns: First, I am disappointed with the adoption of a new system and curriculum without input from parents or teachers. I am very impressed with the listening tour the County Schools Superintendent is doing that will be followed up by working with focus groups to create a strategic plan. I bet she ends up with support for her plan. Second, Ponderosa currently has a great group of teachers and I am concerned the District has not engaged them in a meaningful way. To the contrary it appears they have been promised many things that have not come through such as an update on June 8, 2026 from the Superintendent that we would have super-supported teachers by others doing things like grading and making slides. Has this super support happened? With the amount of class time each teacher has, when are they supposed to create DOL’s, Grade, communicate with parents, etc. What opportunity has the District provided for teachers and parents to be able to provide input? Third, things like DOL’s and enrichment/behave out room is taking from functional lesson time. For example, my daughter says DOL’s does not leave time for a full lesson or any review of the past days lesson. Is it really enriching the way it is currently set up? Lastly, I firmly believe that to be successful, a school needs to have buy in from parents, teachers, and students. Does not appear effort was put towards this? Thank you!
