Pointe Coupee Parish School District Parent Survey Clarified

In order to plan and budget for the 2008-2009 school year, the Pointe Coupee School District sent a survey home last week to the parents of 5th grade through 11th grade students asking them to indicate which schools their children will be attending. Advance Baton Rouge, which has applied for the charter of Pointe Coupee Central High School (grades six through twelve), wants to point out that parents are not limited by what they checked on the survey form. Parents can change their minds if they want. And if they made no choice at all or did not return the form, they will not be penalized in anyway. Parents who made no choice at all on the form will be able to choose later.
