Ward 8 Sounding Board
Manchester School Board Representative Erika
Connors is looking for a few parents to be part of a sounding board for Ward 8.
Please see the notice below:
As your elected
Manchester School Board representative, I have been charged with representing
the community and families of Ward 8. It is my job, as your
representative, to look out for our students, make decisions about school
programs and policies, and ensure that our children are getting the best
education possible for the tax dollars spent.
The Ward 8
community consists of individuals and families with a broad spectrum of ideas
and beliefs. In order to develop a more collaborative approach and a
stronger community, I am looking to create a sounding board. This board
will consist of students and parents from Ward 8 and the 7 schools within our
ward: Memorial, Manchester School of Technology, Southside, McLaughlin,
Green Acres, Jewett, and Highland Goffe’s Falls.
The purpose of
this sounding board is to discuss and evaluate ideas, programs, and
policies. This sounding board will be solution based and will help in
providing me, and our School Board, with a variety of perspectives and
ideas. This will be done through email communications, as this is a
confidential, accessible, and efficient method of communication.
If you would like
to be added as a member of this sounding board, please send me an email at boscward8@mansd.org.
Please be sure to include the following:
- Your name
- Your email address
- Your Ward 8 address
- The name of the school your child attends.
