Meeting to learn about Druid Hills Charter Cluster
The Emory LaVista Parent Council will hold an informational meeting about a renewed petition to put a group of schools near Emory University into a charter “cluster.”
The DeKalb County school board rejected the proposed Druid Hills Charter Cluster. The proponents renewed their petition, but Superintendent Michael Thurmond has recommended denial.
Speakers are yet to be announced at the Aug. 27 information session, which is at Sagamore Hills Elementary School, 1865 Alderbrook Road, Atlanta at 9:15 am. Doors open at 8:45 a.m.
