Dear View Ridge Elementary Community,

We sincerely appreciate the engagement of our community in thoughtful discussion, attendance at meetings, and reaching out to provide support.  We know how strapped we all are for time, energy, and literal and figurative bandwidth.  Thank you also for all of your thoughtful feedback on Slido, via email, via phone, and via text.  It is clear that our community is hurting and wanting answers of how to move forward.  There’s also a lot of frustration with how the meeting was conducted Wednesday afternoon.  Please know that we are here for you, as your PTA co-presidents to be your voice and advocate.  Things clearly need to change both at the school and district level.

Thank you for your patience in this extremely difficult process.  We know that we will be a stronger community for having gone through it.

If you would like to reach us directly over email, please click here.  We’re happy to also schedule 1:1 phone/virtual meetings with anyone that would like one. Please reach out and know that we’re here to be your voice.

Kathryn Lachenmaier  &   Megan Flaherty
VRE PTA Co-Presidents
