Building Walk Through Review
Discussion:
Board reviewed their notes from the walkthrough and discussed. President Van Patten asked about the Chrome books. Mr. Tharman shared the status of the Chrome books. She also mentioned that the iPads in grade school are not remaining charged. Mr. Rogers wondered if the teachers could mark the ones that are needing some service or looked at. Possibly add a note so that IT could look at them. The biggest thing in high school was lack of using the white boards in their rooms. They are stained, not easy to erase.
