May 25, 2016 at 7:00 PM - Special 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:  Ms. Anna Robbins, Business Manager, will present the April statement of accounts.

Rationale:  Ms. Amy Lupoli, Math Consultant, and students from F.M. Kearns Primary School will share their numeracy learning and a video will also be shown to the Board showcasing K-2 student work on numeracy instruction.

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 May 4, 2016 Board of Education meeting.

Rationale: 

The Curriculum/Policy/Technology/Communication Subcommittee recommends revised Policy 9240, Conflict of Interest, to the Board for a third reading and approval.

Rationale:  Mr. Robert Gilbert, Director of Teaching and Talent Development, will update the Board on transition planning taking place for staff, students and families.

Rationale: 

Mr. Jon Lambert, Director of Technology, will present the annual report of the Technology Department to the Board.
