The new policy by the diocese was not supposed to be directly linked to Cotter in the handbook but instead to redirect you to the Diocese of Winona-Rochester since it is their policy that it has to be in the student handbook. Over the next week or so, Cotter will be in the process of coming up with a solution not only to the link in the handbook but how they plan to respond to this policy. they've asked that in terms of the protest and major disagreements, we hold off until they come up with a decision next week for us to take action, if we still don't agree. Until then, keep signing and sharing the petition which is led by us, the students, and not Cotter and will encourage the board to make an inclusive decision as to how they will continue forward! Thank you SO much to all the support we have gotten already! We will make sure our students feel safe, welcomed, and have their rights!
