2. SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
Discussion:
Superintendent Purdy thanked the board members for allowing administrators and principals to go to the CCOSA Summer Conference and the Nuts & Bolts Symposium. Next, she brought up the date for graduation next May. After the school calendar had been approved, it was discovered that the Oklahoma State Track & Field Meet would be held at the same time. She stated she would hate for any student to feel he/she needed to choose between going to the state track meet or going to graduation. Therefore, there is a possibility that we need to move graduation to Sunday afternoon rather than Friday evening. The board recommended that we ask the senior class and parents to vote.
Superintendent Purdy provided information to the board regarding a graduation checklist. For 8th graders in the year 2025-2026, there will be an additional math requirement. She mentioned it and noted that we still have time to figure out how to incorporate this new requirement. She also gave an update on the school bond. We have the asbestos abatement mostly done at both Salyer and Northeast. Next, the utilities will be disconnected and once we have the finalized demolition plan from the architects, we can move forward. She also gave an update on the track project. They have a pre-construction meeting next week, and they will hopefully get started the next week. The board asked that we post on social media when we are closing the track as several community members use it. Lastly, Assistant Superintendent Melissa Watson went over our recent benchmark data. Our attendance numbers have improved this year. The board recommended that we publish the attendance/chronic absenteeism information so the public can see the improvement. |
