Board Meeting Agenda Highlights for 10/6

Just a few highlights of what we'll be doing at tomorrow's Board of Ed meeting (you can read the full agenda by clicking HERE):

• Proposed plans for expansion at Ridge and Hawes. Revised plans for GW expansion. (This will be early on the agenda, so if you want to come see and discuss these plans, you can get home fairly quickly).

• Various human resources items (appointments, resignations, leaves of absence, substitutes, etc.)

• Miscellaneous financial approvals (receive donations, budget appropriation transfers, contract with the Ice House, change order for Hawes retaining wall project)

• Presentation of the Elementary Math Planning Year including objectives, action plan, timeline, team members and external advisors.

• Discussion items: 1) student residency; 2) security
NOTE: One of the security issues involves the posting of a guard at BF. I would love to hear what BF parents think about this. Do you think it's necessary? Do you and your children feel more safe with the guard in place? Any comments or thoughts? Email me or post here! Or come to the meeting and speak to the Board...

As always, there will be two opportunities for public comment: once at the very beginning of the meeting and once toward the end.

The public portion of the meeting will start at 7:30 p.m. Don't feel like coming down to the Ed Center? You can watch the meeting online by clicking here.
