Thanks for logging on to what I hope will become a constant source of dialogue for all persons associated with Fredericksburg City Schools. I want to invite anyone associated with the school system to make comments, ask or answer questions, or raise issues.
As a teacher at Walker Grant I am always asked questions about issues at the schools. I often find that I don't know the answers to these questions, and sometimes don't even know how to direct people to the proper source for the answer. Through this forum, I'm hoping that parents will have a quick way to ask and receive appropriate answers to any question they may have.
Administrators and school board members are constantly bombarded with phone calls and questions. My hope is that they, too, will frequent this blog and become part of the anticipated dialogue.
Finally, I would like to state that this blog was not set up by Fredericksburg City Schools, but by myself as a private citizen, in hopes of achieving the above stated goals.
Enjoy!

Hi Kim
Congratulations. I think that this is a great idea . This year started on a very high , positive and busy note here at Walker Grant Middle School. We had the Challenge Day Workshop and I think that it set the tone for the positive energy in our building. Our new principal , Mr.Harry Thomas is also very visible in the corridors and I heard that he already visitted some classes. I will also be the coordinator for the Muticultural club at our school and is very excited about this. We have a lot of projects in mind but more about that in a later posting.

Hi, I'm concerned about the amount of time testing is taking from guidance counselors. My daughter was in a difficult situation at school (a city school not walker grant) and I was told the guidance counselor would see her once a week. That never happened, and the guidance counselor prevaricated about the situation when I asked her how my daughter was doing. Several months later when confronted with the fact she had not seen my daughter even once, she told me she was too busy with testing to actually do what she promised. The principal did nothing about this situation after I told him my daughter was not being seen. The superintendent did nothing when told about the situation. Just sign me discouraged mom.
