=========================================================

Dear Jolie Wineroth,

It has come to our attention that UESF members and parents at some sites
have just heard about your March 26, 2009 Memo regarding the need to
have
the SSCs select the administrative selection process panel, and return
the
names to you no later than March 31st. Panel training has already been
scheduled for next week. Some sites cannot set up and complete the
selection process, and make themselves available for the training in
that
short of timeline. This is the second year in a row that there have
been
serious difficulties in the site administration selection process.

To allow a more orderly, participatory process that complies with
District
intent and obligations, UESF is requesting that you delay the deadline
for
return of the names on the selection panel for at least 1 week, and set
up
an alternative training after that time. Could you please send UESF a
list
of the sites that are participating in this process, and let them know
about
any extension/alternative training date(s) that are created?

Thank you for your assistance in resolving this matter.

Sincerely,


Allan Brill
