A Quick, Unscientific Poll.

I added a quick poll to the bottom of the page on the left. After reading the minutes from Tuesday's meeting I saw the idea of current students paying a higher tuition for a year or two to keep the school in the black while the student population is increasing. So I thought that I would throw that idea out and see what the masses think. Scroll down and give you opinion to our unscientific poll.

One Heart, One Voice

You may have seen Andrea Colaruotolo O'Neill, a parent from Saint John's of Rochester in Fairport, on the news over the last week. Well, Andrea is starting to organize a single protest place for all displaced families to work together. A website with a petition, a rally, a press conference, a vigil, a massive prayer service, a meeting at the convention center, etc.

What do you want here?

So far, I have been consolidating media reports and such that I can find from around the web into this blog.

In addition, I can add Google Ads down the right side of this blog to try to raise a little money. Click the Comments link below and let me know what you think. The more input and feedback we can get here, the better tool we can make this for everyone.

First 'Parents of SMM School' Meeting

Tonight, Mr. Marty Swenson, Principal, held a meeting for parents interested in submitting a plan to the Diocese of Rochester to keep Saint Margaret Mary School opened. There was a lot of emotion tonight, as it was one of the first times for many of us parents to really speak out. Ideas were taken for how to develop the plan (I hope to post them here, if anyone wants to e-mail them to me). Next meeting is the SAC Meeting, Tuesday, January 29th at 6:30 PM in the teachers lounge.
