supervisor campos: thank you. >> i am a parent.ust want to say that i support everything that the other parents have said. the waiver is very important this year for all of the confusion and lack of communication. i have no idea where my son is going to go. we are in district 5. there is no school in district 5 anywhere close to me. i will have to drive my child across town. some of the transitional kindergartens have no idea what -- what the program will be. how am i supposed to make a decision on where to send my child when they do not know what they are going to be offering? it is not even close to my house. i turned in and acceptance, but i would rather send my son to a school in my neighborhood where i live near 4 very fine schools. i was hoping that was what we would get in the original plan to writ given what has happened to the many of the parents who do want the waiver, we really need the waiver this year. parents will have a lot more information next year. we were not able to plan at all three i was touring kindergartens

parents cared deeply about indian -- about childhood education. in january, when the program was cancelled, that was very much in question. it was announced today, i think on the website. i think that is a step forward from where we were in january. thank you for that. however, that is still not a complete solution for every family. i do not want to color this, but that is not going to accommodate all of the families impacted by traditional kindergartens. we are one of the families were the closest school to our house is 2.3 miles away. i think they will be within 10 minutes of each other. i do not think that is something i can manage logistically. i need to be in a position of may be having no education for my son next year, which is not where i want to be. i do believe my son is kindergarten ready. i do believe that would be hopefully a somewhat cost effective solution for the district. one of the questions i do have, which was not answered, was the cancellation of the original program, which had children in the kindergarten classroom. i am stil
