We have new information regarding the proposed high school at Pershing West. On September 7, Arne Duncan informed President Leonard McGee that the proposal was on hold. However, at a TAC meeting on September 11, 2007, Jeanne Nowaczewski, Senior Director New School Recruitment, informed the TAC by telephone that Mr. Duncan was wrong in his previous statement to President McGee. According to Ms. Nowaczewski, the conversation and review process CONTINUES on putting a high school on the Douglas Campus. The evaluation process continues with VOISE's proposal.
You can read the minutes from Ms. Nowaczewski's visit to the GAP on our blog. (Scroll down.)
President McGee is making another effort to speak with Mr. Duncan about this issue.
You can help as well. There will be Pershing West TAC Community Forum. The GAP MUST come out and voice its opinion.
WHEN: Tuesday, September 25, 2007 from 5:30pm- 8:30pm.
(Refreshments @ 5:30, Forum begins @ 6:30)
WHERE: McCormick Tribune Campus Center
Do you support the addition of a high school to Pershing West on the Douglas Campus?
