Howell Public Schools Superintendent Erin MacGregor is set to host his first Coffee Chat of the school year on Tuesday, Oct. 10. The Coffee Chat will run from 9-10 a.m. at Black Iron Coffee Roasters in downtown Howell. Coffee Chat is an opportunity for district families and community members to hear updates on Howell Public Schools and to ask any questions they may have about the district.
Each Coffee Chat will have a specific focus. At the Oct. 10 Coffee Chat, MacGregor will be joined by Howell Public Schools Board of Education Vice President Courtney Tarara and Treasurer Christy Conn to share about the Our Kids, Our Community, Our Future Bond Proposal that will appear on the Nov. 7 ballot.
“Coffee Chat is an informal opportunity for families and community members to hear updates on our district and our various initiatives and programs,” said MacGregor. “With the Our Kids, Our Community, Our Future Bond Proposal election coming up, we wanted to use the first chat as another chance to share about the no expected tax rate increase proposal that, if approved, would provide $258 million to address various needs in our district.”
“I look forward to sharing about the Our Kids, Our Community, Our Future Bond Proposal at the Coffee Chat. We want our families and community to understand what is included in the proposal and why it was included,” said Tarara.
“If approved, the bond proposal would address the highest needs in each of our schools, provide funding to construct two replacement elementary schools, and build a new Community Center that would be open to students, families, and the community,” said Conn.
Black Iron Coffee Roasters is located at 119 W Grand River Ave. in downtown Howell.
