Paul Benson
Proposing a CVNA Education Committee
Parents of CVE aren’t getting the information they need. Some of them didn’t have information that has been available for months now on the closing of CVE. Parents are upset. School is most likely to close. His goal is that we as a community need to engage in education more whether we have kids or not. We need to start somewhere and catching kids early and uplifting them early is important. Grant Park already made their elementary school great now they can focus on their Middle School. How can we create community hubs at Perkerson? People are passionate about disparate things. I’m trying to meet with all the neighborhoods, but we can be a community as far as education is concerned.
Motion to establish Education Committee with Paul Benson as Chair passed.
