Our apologies for changing our community meeting again!
However, it is for a very good reason. The Romeo Community Schools Board of Education has invited GSOPS to make a presentation to the Board, after which they will go into closed session to discuss our proposal. We do not expect a decision to necessarily come out at this meeting.
Franco Folino and Donna Folland will be presenting. We welcome you to attend the meeting and hear our presentation and bring your valuable presence to the meeting. We do not suggest public comment at this meeting. We are grateful for this opportunity and would like to speak with one unified voice.
Here’s the meeting information:
Thursday, May 16th at 6 pm at Powell 9th Grade Academy Media Center.
We hope to see you there!
Please let me know if you have any questions. We will reschedule our community meeting – and will get back to you with that date. Thank you very much!
