What is the purpose of the D38 Financial Transparency Committee (FTC) and the Parents and Community Advisory Committee (PCAC)? To assist, access, and advise D38 on budgets and funding priorities. Such as: Our school district infrastructure is crumbling.
Holes in the walls and deteriorated buildings. Kids packed into trailers like sardines in a can. Half of our schools are in disrepair (deferred maintenance, one day we may have full numbers to discuss). Teachers are giving up on their calling (sad). And when schools fall down, students fall down, and so do test scores! And our community suffers. What now? How long until it’s addressed? Ever? Or Never? Adjust priorities? Maybe. In summary, there is no I in team. We are a team. Let’s do it now!
