Letter: 2 school events were poorly timed

I have two questions that I would like to know the answers to on two totally different subjects.

First, whose bright idea was it to have the Back to School nights for the high school and Thomas Jefferson on the same night at the same time as each other?

I know I’m not the only parent forced to choose which one to attend. I’m interested in all of my children’s educations.

I went to one of them, but now feel I will be out of the loop somehow when it comes to the other one’s school year. Maybe the people in Madera Unified’s administration will consider that next year.

On to the other subject, What is the contraption that was hung on the pole by my house a couple of weeks ago? It seems like it’s a camera. I live on one of the smallest streets in Madera. I can’t imagine why someone would have this thing there. There is no street light, traffic, or anything else I can think of as a reason for this things presence. If it isn’t a camera (or is, for that matter) please, someone let me know the purpose for having it there.

April Clark,
Madera
