Don Coleman’s first monthly email newsletter
School Board 7th District member Don Coleman sent out his first monthly email newsletter today, with an introduction on where he is coming from, his email address and phone number, and a wrap-up on 7th District issues, including expansion at Franklin Military, the upcoming June 29 Open House at Armstrong, and the dramatic rise in RPS on-time graduation rates:
This is an exciting time to be a part of RPS. I honestly believe that with your help we will see real, tangible and measurable success across our system over the next four years. As your School Board member I am not afraid of the fact that we are facing serious challenges and opportunities. Yet I am also convinced that we are on the threshold of a historic turn-around story.
