SUPPORT MANUAL HIGH SCHOOL AGAINST FORCED CHARTER SCHOOL CO-LOCATION

Press release:

Here we go again!
Denver Public Schools senior administrators and OSRI (Office of School Reform and Innovation) offered Manual High School to GALS
without informing staff, students or parents
GALS is a 6-8 girls only charter school seeking a building to expand through 12th grade
Starting in the 2013-2014 school year, Manual and GALS will co-locate which means:
Ø  GALS would occupy the entire 3rd floor (no access to Manual staff or students)
Ø  GALS would have exclusive use of the small gym (no access to Manual staff or students)
Ø  GALS would have shared use of the cafeteria, but not “co-mingle” with Manual students
Ø  GALS would have shared use of dance, weight, cardio rooms and pool, but not “co-mingle” with Manual students
COME SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR MANUAL HIGH SCHOOL!
July 26, 2012 from 6:00-8:00PM (Manual Cafeteria)
Mark your calendars:
August 2, 2012 from 6:00-8:00PM (Manual Cafeteria)
