<p class=MsoNormal>The minutes from our April meeting appear below.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Earlier this month, I asked for feedback from parents about
the possibility of moving meeting times. I have heard from a few parents who would
prefer to move the meetings, but I am not sure there was a enough of a response
to warrant making a change. If you would like to change the meeting time so
that you can become a more active participant in the PST, please let me know
soon at <a href="mailto:peggy@jenkinsresearch.com">peggy@jenkinsresearch.com</a>,
or come to our next meeting on May 6<sup>th</sup>. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><b><u>February Parent night – Wrap Up</u></b>: Questionnaire
indicated positive feedback. There needs to be more time, especially for the
breakout sessions. Rotating more than once would be great. An issue was
brought out at the parent night about how teens talk to each other in a
negative way that is not seen as bad (more like teasing). From this there was
concern about potential bullying and kids being afraid to say anything.
Bystander bullying is also an issue. There was a discussion about how to
approach this. <o:p></o:p></p>
