Description:

I attended Eby's MiCIP (school improvement) meeting with 2 JCISD consultants, 12/3: I could not stay for the entire event due to the Fitness Center meeting. Staff (9 Eby teachers & Prin) were asked to review data points in three stations (State Academic Data, Local Assessment Data, Behavior/Attendance Data) with guiding questions for each and asked to keep a "ten-thousand foot view" while analyzing. I'm likely to discuss this with our admin team and reach out to the JCISD staff to replicate the process in each building, then get the buildings together for the same purpose to make data-driven plans and consolidate our efforts more efficiently.
Fitness Center Committee meeting summary, 12/3 @ 4:30PM. Attended by me, Shawn Murphy, Jeff Conway, Beckie Minix, Thomas Wilson (for Jeff McLain), Stu Watts, Don McCubbins (Emma Kesterson did not show). We reviewed the preliminary baseline work done, had good discussion but have much to go before we are ready to make anything public and estimate the transition/opening date to use the space. I will make some additional notes on our guiding documents and share with the Board at the meeting or prior in a separate email. I want to thank our staff involved for their extra efforts on this.
Teamsters Local 214 (bus drivers) contract copy secured from Joe Valenci's office on 12/3. Provided a copy to Lauren for her needs. Not official until teachers contract settled as they have a "me too" clause to match percentage increase.
