CINS to Host Town Hall Meeting with APS Superintendent

by Patch Staff

The Council of Intown Neighborhoods and Schools, the Atlanta nonprofit that advocates for the Grady schools cluster, hosts its annual Town Hall Meeting with the Atlanta Public Schools Superintendent Oct. 25 at 7 p.m. at Inman Middle School, 774 Virginia Ave. NE.

This is the annual opportunity for parents from the communities that comprise the Grady High School cluster of schools — including Inman Park, Candler Park, Lake Claire Old Fourth Ward, Virginia-Highland and Morningside — to ask questions of Supt. Erroll B. Davis Jr.

Davis will introduce key members of his team, update the community on what's happening with the district and answer questions from the audience as well as queries that have been submitted to CINS over the last two weeks.

Next month CINS is hosting a meeting on the implementation of Common Core Standards.

The Common Core Standards are a series of guidelines adopted by a number of states that outline what students need to have in their K-12 schooling to be fully prepared in college.

That meeting is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. on Nov. 14 at Mary Lin Elementary School, 586 Candler Park Dr.
