Re: California District Proposal

Hi Andrew S/Data Nerd--

I think it's a settled issue that high schools are perfectly fine for District events--Some better than others of course.

I'd like to hear some ideas on how to get buy-in from the people who most have to be convinced, and about who I'm seeing little conversation: High school site and school district admin. Going back to the White Paper here:

California District Proposal White Paper: Refocusing the Conversations

it's a people problem, not an engineering problem, and the solutions must be relational, not logarithmic. The people who have direct effect on issues beyond our control must be convinced that what we do is worthy of backing.
