Many of you may have recently learned that the school district has decided to fence in White Oak Elementary school and field without any community discussion. Iron fencing will be installed shortly this summer. We need transparency and neighborhood input to this project. 

We all want safety for our children. We also don’t want them to lose the open park nature of their neighborhood. An alternative could be to just fence in the school grounds and leave the field open. Or no fence at all and use the savings to pay for security, more secure locks for classroom doors, or many other options we should discuss. 

We are asking for transparency and First Neighborhood resident input. We will take the petition to this months School District board meeting. Regardless if you sign or not, we need to represent First Neighborhood. Tell your friends throughout the community. Please join your neighbors at 5:30pm this Tuesday at LVUSD main office, located at 4111 Las Virgenes Rd, Calabasas, CA 91302. Next door to AE Wright Middle School. 

If you cannot attend this Tuesdays meeting, please email your comments to the District Board President Leslie Stein at: lstein@lvusd.org. Please also contact the superintendent Dan Stepenosky at: dstepenosky@lvusd.org

By signing this petition you are supportive of further community discussion of the White Oak Elementary fencing project before it commences.
