Last Monday, January 24, it was discovered that funds are missing from the Willow River Parents Group checking account. The authorities have been contacted and there is currently a police investigation in process. Members can stay updated through the blog and also through the parent group email. As a result of the initial investigation, appropriate steps have been taken to address the matter and prevent them from occurring in the future. These steps include amending the organization bylaws, appointing an interim executive board member(s) where necessary and updating record keeping practices.
A number of emotional topics have converged to create a potentially charged situation. As parents, we all place immense value in our children and have come together with a shared goal of helping make our school and community great through many activities and programs. We believe the best choice now is to reorganize, become engaged, involved and vigilantly energized in a focused manner to strive toward our goal. Please help us evaluate how members can become involved with individual talents to serve our children and each other moving forward. We are happy to discuss positive suggestions for moving forward as a group.
