Discussion:
a. Paradigm Learning Systems Contract Renewal is our contract for curriculum for our LaHO students. We had to make some adjustments after we ran the contract by our attorneys. The contract has the green light and we are ready to sign.
b. Kings Valley Transportation Contract Approval, Sean Gallagher stated that this has taken sometime to get adjusted to be satisfactory for both Alsea and Kings Valley. After much discussion and give and take, it is ready for board approval. c. Summer Academic Grant K-8th grade, Sean Gallagher explained that this is the grant for our summer school. He reported that things are going great so far with the field trips which are divided up into small groups with what would be of interest to each age group. d. Library MOU approval, Mr Gallagher explained how we would partner with the Benton County Library to enhance our library. The Library will deliver books boxes to each class room on a weekly basis. There will also be fun activities that our students can participate in as well. Our school library is not going away. This is just a way to enhance what we have here in our own library. Linda Montenaz had some concerns about working with Benton County due to past experiences. They were discussed and the board asked that they get a report from both the county and elementary teacher in November to see how things are going for both parties. e. Adjoining Land possible purchase/lease considerations. Sean Gallagher said he had gotten an inquiry from Mimi Stout about whether the school was still interested in her land. The board asked that he have a conversation and see what it was that she was wanting. f. Presence Learning Contract Approval. Sean Gallagher explained this is a contract for services for LaHO for support in testing and helping with needs of our SPED students. g. Psychologist Contract approval. Sean Gallagher explained this is for LaHO and needed to serve those students who aren't in the building. h. Seismic Grant RFP approval. Sean Gallagher asked the board to approve issuing a new RFP to find a different source to use for developing a new Seismic grant submission. We have used Derek Howard the last two times and it has not been awarded to us. He feels that a person with a new perspective will get us the grant. The discussion as to the following policy readings and how we will conduct policy reviews in the future. Sean Gallagher stated that we need to review and approve these Personnel Policies before we finish with the HR reset.
