CONSIDERATION OF PROPOSED CONTRACT

 

Chair Bryan presented the revised contract with Fielding Nair International for Visioning Services to Billings Public Schools. Chair Bryan explained that Mr. Nair has agreed to the following additional change, which she discussed with him earlier in the day:

 

• - Mr. Nair said he could add an additional Best Practices workshop if we wish.

This can be decided during planning for the visioning sessions later on.

of the Best Practices Workshop be posted to the Billings Public Schools website.

Chair Bryan will contact Mr. Nair and get back to the Committee.
