Superintendent Provides Update on Community Programs, Feeding Initiatives, and Staff Development
The Superintendent provided an update on various district initiatives, including a weekly snapshot for the Hannah McClure Cardinal Community Center, an updated website for facility rentals, and progress on the summer feeding program, which distributed 24,000 meals. The book bus is operational, visiting various community locations. Back-to-school nights are being planned, and the Literacy Liftoff program is concluding successfully. New initiatives include opening a second daycare for staff at BCTC and conducting in-house professional development for principals and directors.
Consent Agenda Items Approved by Board
The board approved the consent agenda items through a motion made by Miss Richie and seconded by Miss Thomas. The motion passed five to zero.
Board Approves MOA for Community Work Transition Program to Enhance Pre-Employment Skills
The board approved a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation for the Community Work Transition Program. This program aims to focus on pre-employment skills for students aged 16 and older with an IEP or 504 plan, including interview skills, job shadowing, and volunteer work, aligning with college and career readiness goals. The program, which was previously offered, is being piloted again with an instructional assistant.
Updated Student Fee Schedules Approved; Paxton Patterson Lab Fees Introduced
The board approved updated student fee schedules for GRC, RDC, and Baker. Changes include adding $10 for background checks for GRC dance, removing fees for CTE classes at RDC due to the introduction of Paxton Patterson labs, and adding a $20 Paxton Patterson lab fee at RDC and a $5 fee at Baker. A $50 fee for Black and Hispanic Achievers at Baker was removed as it is managed by an external group. A provision for free or reduced lunch students to be exempt from fees was also noted.
Carry Forward Requests Approved for Section Six Funds
The board approved carry forward requests for Section Six funds. These funds will be committed to be carried over for schools to use in the next fiscal year, with specific intended uses noted, such as for instructional assistant positions.
