Richard Chennault, John Muir Middle School PTSO President, acknowledged the District and staff for the new John Muir parking lot which has helped the traffic flow, and dropping off students. He also noted that the updated landscaping has improved the curb appeal of the school. Mr. Chennault also addressed the Board regarding math issues at John Muir, adding that not only do we need quality teachers at Muir, we need a common grading policy. Currently at Muir, the grading policy is more individualized rather then consistent from one math teacher to the other. He urged the Board and District staff to look into a District-wide grading policy so that students have consistent expectations no matter what class they are enrolled in and can accelerate and achieve success.
