Hi:
Great job everyone in advocating for the CHS arts wing and bringing it
closer to reality.
Please take the time to follow Susana's suggestion in the last
paragraph and write to the school board members about equity issues
involved in setting numerical minimums for elective class sizes.
The e-mail address Susana gave for the board didn't work for me; if
you have trouble, try them at
allboar...@chccs.k12.nc.us

> School. At last week¹s meeting, the school board discussed increasing the
> minimum class size for high school electives to 15; this sets a higher
> standard for our smaller school more than it does for the larger high

> 3% of CHHS and 2% of East¹s senior class.) Please remind school board
