CALLING ALL PHARAOHS!
Dear Raleigh-Egypt High School parents,
Hello. My name is Malika Anderson. I’m with the Achievement School District (ASD), and I
wrote you not long ago about the ASD’s process for matching Green Dot Public Schools with
Raleigh-Egypt High School. I’m writing today to inform you that Raleigh-Egypt High
School is NOT joining the ASD next year.
During community meetings, we heard a clear commitment to Raleigh-Egypt’s success and
were often asked to give the school a chance to make significant improvement this year. As
a result, Green Dot is honoring the Raleigh-Egypt community’s request to wait a year.
We’re hoping for a great year at Raleigh-Egypt. We encourage you to stay involved and
active in your child’s education. Please understand that if Raleigh-Egypt High does not
make appropriate progress this year, it is possible that it may be included in the ASD’s
school matching process for the 2016-17 school year. No matter what happens, for the
students’ sake, we want to see the school improve this year and for years to come.
Again, Raleigh-Egypt High School is no longer on the list of schools to join the ASD
next school year. We wish you a very successful year, and we thank you for being part of
your child’s education.
Thanks & Sincerely,
Malika Anderson
Achievement School District
Sincerely,
Malika Anderson
