Answer 3

Mr. P.

Are there any renovations planned for our school?
If so, what are they?
If so, what sort of time table are we looking at?
If not, what would you like to see changed?
Does the rest of faculty share your feelings?
Have any parents been asked about their preferences?
Have the students been polled?
Would the District consider volunteer community help?
Could some material be obtained at cost through local business?

Start with some of those. Ask a parent, other student, an older friend or anyone who will talk to you to pretend to be the principle. Ask them to seriously answer each question as the principle might answer it. Allow your mind to work. Is there a direction you hadn't thought of until some answer jogged it loose? Do your volunteers have any thoughts on other questions?

Just talk to anyone who will listen and respond, before you know it you will have more questions than you can ask in the time allowed and you will have to set up a list on a priority basis.

Good luck, and nail him down to some real answers, don't let him blow off the hard questions.

Answer 4

I dont thik she can answer these. She can request renovations to the school District..but for this, she has to create a plan, and present it to the board for approval. if this already took place theen she really does not manage the project of renovation. She can make a few calls and kind of push it, but that is about it. If you are planning on talking to her or him about renovations, do it as a group, that is more effective than just doing it yourself.

Answer 5

If there were funds available, and you had an input into the process, what five school renovations would be on your list of priorities, and how would you rank them?

Answer 6

What kind of renovations do you want?


if they cost money, find a way to raise it.. like a bake sale, or car wash.

Answer 7

I ignore about those questions and pass on to the subsequent. there are a tremendous style persons who positioned a tremendous form of concept & interest for others in our solutions. this isn't a area to argue and push aside human beings. it really is for others evaluations. I even might want to believe Frizzer, Kat, Professor X & Kim. the area has replaced so I merely search for the exciting wise questions which aren't any more meant to argue. there are a tremendous form of those who do precisely that yet we would want to positioned up with the nonsense. Have an exceedingly hi to all.....:)>-

Answer 8

If certain renovtion are in need of completion, ask why they have not been completed.
Ask where funding for these projects come from, and who allocates them to each purpose.
Have a list of items that need to be done. Which are on the agenda already, which have been "passed over" or left off of the list.

Answer 9

Any problem with roof leaking - needing repair? An older section of the school where you find cracks in the walls? Trouble with high degree of humidity causing damages to environment?

Answer 10

you should go see what it needs, and see if renovations are necessary. How would we know what your school needs?
