COMMUNICATION FROM THE PUBLIC

There was no communication from the Public.

 

VISIONING

Dr. Beeman handed out the most up-to-date lists of attendees/participants for the leadership group, community focus group, and staff, parent, student, and ICT groups.

Committee members discussed final confirmations to the list.

 

Dr. Beeman explained additional updates that were made to the visioning schedule, which include; location of the groups to meet in the Board room of Lincoln Center, transportation has been noted and confirmed, and food needs for the working lunches, snacks, and beverages have been coordinated.

 

Josh Middleton, BPS Asst. Supt. for Operations, said arrangements have been confirmed for equipment needs at the Mansfield Center and videoing equipment is available to record the visioning event.

 

Chair Bryan will contact Prakash Nair about the power point presentation and presenters presenting on Skype. Greta Besh-Moen suggested the power point presentation be placed on SD2 web-site and made available to Community 7.

 

Dr. Beeman stated the schools for the EFEI site visits need to be confirmed. The consensus of the committee for the EFEI site visits includes, Castle Rock middle school, West high school, and Washington elementary school which represent a good cross section of the city. It was suggested by Trustee Wardell that Rimrock School be visited by FNI during their time here; Trustee Wardell indicated that use of Rimrock as a prototype school might be appropriate, allowing other schools to re-locate their temporarily while other schools were being renovated.

 

Chair Bryan will firm up questions with Prakash Nair regarding leadership attendees attending different groups meetings, Board members meeting with Prakash Nair, what the on-line survey will include, and the time line in the process for the survey.

 

 

ADJOURNMENT

There being no further business, Trustee Bryan adjourned the meeting.
