Box 34020 Louisville, KY 40232.4020 Dear Dr. Hargens, On behalf of the JCTA Board of Directors and the 5,900 members they represent, we are writing to formally ask that you schedule upcoming Code of Conduct Committee meetings and the follow-up meeting with the MAG consulting group regarding the JCPS compensation review after school hours so that interested educators and other stakeholders can attend these meetings and hear the discussions as they are occurring. Having these meetings after school hours also allows our JCTA teacher representatives involved to attend the meetings without having to be away from the students in their classes. We hope you will accommodate this request in order to improve collaboration, to minimize teacher time away from students, and to improve communication and stakeholder engagement. Sincerely, Brent McKim DeeAnn Flaherty JCTA President JCTA Executive Director BMe/DE/sep c Members of the Jefferson County Board Of Education Afifated with ‘National Education Association .
