An Avon parent voiced concern 'about the ranking
system at A\'on High School during the monthly A\'on
Board of EduC3tion meeting on June 26. '
Michael Gerdes told board members that his daughter. ,Marissa.. is at a disad\'antage with her ranking
'
because'she is a transfer student.
"Idon't want to fcolas though,rm an cl]cmy to, the
school board." Gerdes said, adding that his purpose at
the meeting was to ask the members to appeal the deci·
sian for class·ranking that was made by,Avon High
School Principal Dr, Chad Coffman.
, Gerdes requested, thntthe members drop Marissa's
.ranking from her tians~pls. which hpsaid would gl\'C
her more opportUnitics for scholarships and occcp·
