At the end of the regularly scheduled Platte Canyon School District RE-1 meeting, the board members discussed the possibility of holding an open forum for the community to attend. New board member Joe Burgett suggested the idea, and the other board members were interested in the idea.
The discussion went on for nearly an hour, and the decision was made that Superintendent Dr. Brenda Krage would talk with other area districts to see how they go about having a public forum and report back at the February board meeting.
The general consensus among the board members was that they would want this forum to be a positive way to solve some of the issues facing the district, like retention of students.
