Current Letter of Intent draft
Here is the most recent draft of the Letter of Intent, along with Brian's Nov. 10 e-mail to the faculty. Most members may already have seen these items.
Be advised again that the superintendent's timeline, per his November 6 e-mail, marks the deadline at 5:00 p.m. on Monday, November 16. Brian and Roberta are confirming this to update the date given on our Letter of Intent draft, which currently still says November 15. Happy reading.

There has been a very great deal of activity tonight! Brian put out an important update on the progress of the unified proposal, and his own perspective on the prospects we have before us. You may have received his e-mail already, but just in case, here it is:
Also, Brian distributed copies of the School Choice brochure and the district's comparison chart of the various models. For the record, the deadline for Letters of Intent is Monday, November 16, at 5:00 p.m. per the superintendent's timeline, not November 15 as Brian writes, a discrepancy he acknowledges! Here are the documents he asked to be placed on the blog, along with the current draft of the Garfield unified Letter of Intent:
Finally, in the spirit of fair-mindedness, here are two e-mails: one that Inner-City Struggle distributed to their supporters about the press conference they are attending tomorrow, November 10, in front of UTLA headquarters, and a second from another group, as you will see.
ICS says that their position is "pro-union," and we take them at their word, but the same event is being promoted by that second group (ABC, the Alliance for a Better Community, as they call themselves), that is telling their members in their own e-mail that they will be there (along with their featured speakers, board president Monica Garcia and board member Yolie Flores-Aguilar) to "denounce" what they present as intimidating tactics by unnamed persons (could they mean teachers?) to "deter parents and community members" from taking part in the present process.
For the record, Garfield Unites supports students, parents, teachers, and the larger community in their combined efforts to improve our school in every sense of the word. Here's the text of what both ICS and ABC are saying. You get to be the judge:
Students deserve better than this sideshow. We all have real work to do.

On October 29, the SLC leads, the administration, and the Garfield UTLA rep created the Design Team for the unified proposal. Here is the link for the memo.
