Update: 5/8 Parent Meeting at Llewellyn
Parents met on Tuesday, May 8 in the Cafetorium at Llewellyn.  We'll be following up with notes and a survey. In the meantime, here's a brief recap of what was discussed:

• Review of 2011-2012 TAG offerings at Llewellyn;
• Discussion of 2012-2013 school year and budget;
• Invitation for parent involvement in organizing offerings including those created by the parents themselves (in partnership with some of the parents who are certified teachers); and
• Providing more professional development resources to TAG instructors.

Robin Mauldin and Brenda Ray Scott will work together to develop a survey that will be used to gather insight needed to plan the 2012-2013 activities.  The link will be posted to this blog.
