M I N U TES

Meeting called to order at 3:10 p.m.

 

Those in attendance: Melissa Barnes, Marta Calabrese, Lorna Combs, Candace Dearing, Susan Fairey, Kris Martin, Lynn Nilssen, Jane O’Malley, Sheri Paulsen, Ann Putnam, Dotti Rosenfield, and Ruth Wright.

Item 1:

School Uniforms

Mrs. Dearing informed the Committee that there is going to be a “real crack down” on the inappropriate clothing that is being worn by students. Girls are wearing short shorts and tank tops and boys are wearing pants that are too big and showing their underwear. Flip flops and high or inappropriate shoes are also a safety concern. This needs to stop. Should we address the issue of school uniforms? The question was brought up again. Different options were discussed such as optional uniforms, or only shirts versus a whole uniform change. Dotti Rosenfield and Mrs. Dearing will tweak the survey letter that was sent out last year to get the opinions of parents on the issue. Surveys will be sent home in report card envelopes.

Item 2:

SIP Presentation for School Board

The committee also discussed how the School Improvement Plan data and goals should be presented to the School Board on February 4, 2004. The presentation will be in the media center at 3:15 in the afternoon. It was decided that Mrs. Dearing, Dotti Rosenfield and Sheri Paulsen would draft a script that would provide an outline for the program. SAC will then schedule an extra meeting to go over the draft and assign “parts”. Administration, teachers, parents and students should all be a part of the presentation.

Item 3:

The percentage of SIP money that will be spent on Professional Development will be 29%. ($5800)

Other:

Population projections for the next school year indicate that we will have approximately 468 students enrolled at Phillippi next year.

Next Agenda: Extra Meeting to plan for SIP presentation.

 

The meeting was adjourned at 4:20 p.m.
