7.A. Consideration to approve CAVIAT employee contracts for SY 15-16- Action Item
Description:
The contracts approved would be for: Cristy Auble, Christine Mayer, Christina Russell, Michael Twyford and Valorie Twyford.
All the above employees are in good standing and their annual evaluations have been completed. I request that all contract are approved. Ms. Auble will, like last year, have a contract that is based upon enrollment. |

7.D. Consideration to approve revisions to 2014-2015 intergovernmental agreements (Exhibit A budget only) for member districts: Flagstaff Unified School District- Action Item
|
|
7.E. Consideration to approve CPR/First Aid Central Campus course- Action Item
Description:
For the past 7 years we have provided and paid for CPR for all of our CNA and Pre-Health students. This is a required training/cert prior to their clinical experiences. We want to afford this training to ALL of our Central Campus students, COUNTYWIDE, and we feel it would be a cost benefit to approve our own course and pending board approval, post the position and hire (pending GB approval) our own CPR instructor. Moreover, as noted in the agenda item, we would also pursue someone that can teach CPR and First aid. ADE supports CTE programs having certifications.
We think that this is a cost savings, we can control when classes are held and the number of classes we offer and provide this service to ALL COMMUNITIES. |
|
7.F. Consideration to approve building improvement/classroom upgrade at our Page Central Campus - Action Item
Description:
Christina's notes:
These 3 written quotes were obtained in order to create the necessary classroom space at the Page District Offfice and Central Campus to accommodate the new classes beginning next fall. This is basically a remodel- taking half of the existing workshop area and converting it into a large classroom. A new wall will be constructed down the middle of the workshop, with a dropped ceiling. In addition, a new heat pump unit will be roof-mounted to replace existing and dated evaporative cooler. The new heat pump unit will heat and cool both the new space and the remaining storage/lab area. My first recommendation would be Bartholomew Builders- they did our bathroom remodel a few years ago and are also the lowest priced. My second recommendation would be Lake Powell Construction because they have worked with several school districts in the past and appear to be very knowledgeable. However, they are also the most expensive. Please approve with $10,000 allowance as the possibility exists for the need to hire an architect. |
|
7.G. Consideration to redirect $1000 annual competition funds allocation from FUSD to Fredonia-Moccasin USD (for national CTSO Early Childhood Education competition)- Action Item
|
|
7.H. Discussion and possible approval of lottery process for classes where enrollment exceeds capacity-Possible Action Item
Description:
Please note that we might need to amend the dates to meet CCC deadlines for registration and summer school classes.
The process for the lottery is what we would like the board to approve. Lastly, we will alert all viable candidates about the lottery prior to the process. |

7.J. Discussion regarding possibly changing May board meeting location and/or date of meeting- Possible Action Item
