Douglass is the very best of what a school can be—families, teachers, and a truly connected community. After nine years between my two kids at Douglass, it has become one of the tightest communities in our lives. We understand declining enrollment is a real challenge, but closing Douglass doesn’t solve the underlying problem—it dismantles a thriving community while creating new challenges for Douglass families and the schools expected to absorb them. Our ICAN students and all Dolphins need our school and deserve to have this community protected.
