CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities | 2019-03-13 | 26 | ITEM 3-A COMMISSION ON DISABILITY MEETING MINUTES Wednesday, March 13, 2019, 6:30 PM Jennifer Roloff: It's fairly recent, yes. I saw it on Facebook. Leslie Morrison: March 5th. Jenn Barrett: Do you have the title of the article? Anto Aghapekian: Yes, it's called, "The program moved, no warning to parents".

I'm frustrated that our meetings are SO far apart. By the time we come up and discuss this, it's going to be two months later. So let me reach out to Laurie to see what else we can do. Leslie Morrison: So it sounds like what they did is they moved the designated special education classroom that had been at Lincoln, and they moved it to Wood.
