New info: the meeting will be at the PAW (performing arts wing) at RHS at 7 pm Monday. The amount that they want to impose is 7.8%.
Please attend the board meeting at the district office on Monday, April 22, at 7 p.m. The implementation is the only item on the agenda. The teachers have offered to take cuts. Please come speak up for the kids of Ramona.
