School fees open to discussion again

The CBE administration has invited parents to continue the discussion about school fees. A parent who attended said: "It was not an attempt to justify the fees, but rather a consultation with parents about whether the new fees as announced are, in fact, the best way to deal with the district’s transportation budget shortfall. One trustee and several senior district administrators were in attendance to listen to at least 50 parents. They will not have to listen to a long presentation, and they will have an opportunity for meaningful input."
