- Minutes from Dec 11, 2008 approved
2) Consider Final Draft of Single Plan for Student Achievement
- pg 2 – Susan: Change “All … Students” to a set goal (ie “20% of Students”) . . . perhaps a goal in future years
- pg 5 (EL Coordinator) is .2FTE and pg 8 (EL Coordinator salary $8,000 = a separate duty; to clarify, what would the times for this individual’s duties be?)
- pg 11 – Susan re: Implement & Purchase PRS (Smartboard) - Is $2000 really enough? -- Could this funding be better used elsewhere ie EL Center Coordinators / more LCD projectors/bulbs? Yes, motion approved to:
* decrease funding Library Media to $8,000 total for LCD projectors
* allocate $8,000 more to EL Center Coordinator
* allocate $4000 more to Staff / Teacher Proposals
* redesignate Library Maintenance category / funds to “Maintain and Improve Library
and Multi-media Resources”
