[Dhsbb-jazz] Reno Trip Cancellation

[Rob Kerner]

Dear Jazz families,

I regretfully have to tell you that another Jazz trip has to be cancelled due to overwhelming circumstances.

The first circumstance is that Tom Slabaugh is still recovering from his motorcycle accident and would not be able to participate in the trip.  I was hoping to find a substitute for Tom on the trip, but then circumstance #2 arose.

I was informed by Tom McHale that the trip was not approved by the school board.  When asked he informed me that Tom Slabaugh had not completed the proper forms for the trip.  This is something that Tom S. had been working with Matt Best, assistant superintendent.  Tom S had submitted the online information, but evidently was missing some document but was never notified until last week before his accident.  He then contacted Matt Best and began working with him and was assured it could be handled.  I’m not exactly sure what changed.

I’m not sure if it was the combination of the two events that caused the trip to be cancelled by the DHS principle, but both Tom S and I were surprised when this decision was rendered today because we were still working on arrangements for the trip.

I have further inquiries out and will relay any information I discover.

Feel free to let your voices be heard by the Principle, the School board, and the District superintendent.
