SUPERINTENDENT SEARCH - PUBLIC MEETING 11/2/09 7:30 @ AHS LIBRARY
Superintendent Search Public Meeting
November 2, 2009
7:30 pm in Arlington High School Library
The Arlington Board of Education has begun the search for a new Superintendent of Schools, who will begin in the 2010-2011 school year. Mr. Pepe Jr. will be retiring at the end of the 2009-2010 school year.
The Board recognizes that this is a critical decision that affects the community and staff. One of the most important steps in the search process is to define the qualifications of the new Superintendent. On November 2 and 3, there will be a series of meetings to gain input on the Superintendent Search from various Arlington constituent groups. There will be a public meeting on Monday, November 2 at 7:30 pm in the Arlington High School library.
For those of you who cannot attend this meeting, we encourage you to use the survey, available on our website, to give your input. The survey must be returned by November 6.
Please visit Superintendent Search to obtain a survey and for current information on the superintendent search process.

UVMS PTA - UVMS LIBRARY // BOX TOPS FOR BOOKS DRIVE!
DO YOU SHOP ON-LINE?
If you shop online at home, you can help our library earn money for books.
By entering the website of Box Tops For Books and then shopping your usual stores, UVMS Library can earn a percentage of your sale. It doesn't cost you anything, and can help provide us 3-20% of your sale! You can click here and see the stores that participate. http://www.boxtops4education.com/Marketplace/Default.aspx
The coming school year is presenting budget cuts all around. In February of this year (18 school days), we had 5418 students visit the library, and we had 1218 books circulate. We would hate to see those numbers drop because we are not able to keep our collection current.
We appreciate whatever you can do for us! THANK YOU!!!!!
** Don't forget to cut those Box Tops from your grocery items. So far this year those 10 cent coupons have brought in over $500.00 for books! THANKS AGAIN!!
