December 2, 2015 at 7:00 PM - Regular Board of Education Meeting

Rationale:  Dr. Addley will provide district updates.

Rationale:  Ms. Victoria Myers and Mr. Chad Lillestolen, Student Representatives, will report on activities taking place at the high school.

Rationale:  Dr. Patricia Law will update the Board on the STEAM Committee.

Rationale:  Ms. Julie Groene, Assistant Principal and Director of Guidance at the high school, will present the annual Guidance Services Report to the Board.

Rationale:  Granby community engagement and participation during BOE public meetings is encouraged and welcomed. The Public Comment segment of the meeting agenda is set aside for this purpose.  During this segment, Board members and administration are encouraged to engage with the intent to clarify and understand comments being offered. Board feedback, however, will be limited until a fuller understanding of the topic is obtained. As a result, and in an effort to proceed in a timely manner, follow-up discussion may occur at a subsequent meeting as a dedicated agenda item or outside of a meeting setting altogether.  In the interest of fairness to individuals in a public forum and to allow Board neutrality, it is strongly requested that all references to community members, students or district personnel be done anonymously. Procedurally, public remarks will be limited to approximately 5 minutes and individuals will be asked to identify themselves.

Rationale:  The Board will approve/amend the minutes of the November 18, 2015 Board of Education meeting.

Rationale:  Mr. Robert Gilbert, Director of Teaching & Learning, will give the Board an update on transition planning for students, staff and families.

Rationale:  The Board will discuss participation and representation of the following committees and organizations:  Board Subcommittees, Secretarial and Custodial Negotiations, Granby Education Foundation, and CREC Council.
