January 27, 2012 (El Cajon) – In response to numerous complaints from parents and residents who were not informed before the Grossmont Union High School District voted to change school boundaries, the District today announced that it will host two public information forums and accept public comments.

The meetings will be held in the Cajon Valley and La Mesa/Spring Valley districts on February 7 and 8.

A poll of ECM readers found 93% believe the district should have notified residents by mail before making the changes.

At the meetings, parents and community members will hear a review of the new boundaries, clarification on choices including open enrollment options, and the public will be provided an opportunity to give feedback. The public meetings follow several smaller meetings between the Superintendent and groups of concerned parents.

The two public meetings will be held:


TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 2012

6:00 – 8:00 P.M.

Hillsdale Middle School (Cajon Valley School District)
Multipurpose Room
1301 Brabham Street
El Cajon, CA 92019

and

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 2012
6:00 – 8:00 P.M.

Parkway Middle School (La Mesa/Spring Valley School District) Multipurpose Room
9009 Park Plaza Drive
