"All options are still open to the 27J Board, up to and including revocation of the school's charter," Dr. Rod Blunck said Wednesday after receiving official word of the
Brighton Collegiate High School board's rejection of corrective action plan revisions by the 27J board.

In a news release issued Wednesday afternoon, Blunck announced that the school district received the reply from the legal representative of the collegiate high school board (attorney Barry Arrington).

The superintendent said he had forwarded the written reply to the school district's attorney.

The 27J Board of Education will consider the charter board's response Tuesday at its regular meeting, to be held at South Elementary School, 305 S. 5th Ave., beginning at 7 p.m.

"Our concerns continue to be making certain our school community is safe and that each student in the district receives a quality environment in which to learn."

Past and future "actions by the 27J Board of Education have been and continue to be taken with the welfare and education of the students in mind," Dr. Blunck added.

On Feb. 12, the charter high school had submitted the corrective action plan called for by the school district in January. On Feb. 26, the district board added some requirements to the school's plan, and Monday the charter board rejected the revised plan which, according to Collegiate High School board member David Gill, was cost prohibitive.

Gill also said that in his opinion, the charter board had done nothing wrong.
