Glendale Unified to reach out to parents on funding challenges

The first of three community forums meant to examine challenges faced by Glendale Unified will take place 7 p.m. Wednesday at Crescenta Valley High School.

Supt. Dick Sheehan is scheduled to speak about new developments in curriculum and assessment, while also addressing technology and infrastructure upgrades funded by Measure S.

The district’s budget outlook is also on the agenda.

“A couple of years earlier in this budget crisis, when the district was faced with making significant cuts, parents asked why we didn’t come to them sooner,” Sheehan said. “This time, we want to meet with parents early.”

The two additional community forums are scheduled for 7 p.m. Thursday at Hoover High School, and 7 p.m. June 11 at Glendale High School.
