February minutes approved with amendments.
Budget Update – there is a small change to the Fixed Charges, but at this time Gary states that isn’t a final number. He expects that it will be back at the 164K that it was last month. Each class also purchased digital cameras out of the Technology category. A color network printer was also purchased out of Technology. Doug asked what the Staff Development $ was spent on. We paid for one training in the Professional Learning Communities program in Seattle this past summer. This category also encompasses some books that help with teaching. Meredith was sent to the ITSI (technology seminar). – Of note this may lead to some need in the technology department. Ginny suggested that we may want some headsets and microphones.
Gary went over the waiting list for each grade. 14 siblings will be coming into the 1st grade charter this year. There are a total of 35 applications including the siblings. The lottery will be the 2nd Monday in March. Julie and Ian will be drawing. There are 4 on the waiting list for 2nd grade, 16 waiting for 3rd grade, 25 waiting for 4th grade, 8 waiting for 5th grade.
Review of Goals – We did purchase the cameras and printers. The Heifer project is complete, but the numbers are not in yet. The Willamette Lutheran visit was considered a huge success.
Ginny brought up that the computers in the class room, as well as the COW could use some headphones for the reading programs. Estimated costs are $30 each. Gary will use the funds through the technology budget to purchase as needed.
Taxes are completed for this year.
Gary will make updates to goals as indicated.
Meeting adjourned 6:47pm
