2. "Begindergarten" Proposal:
|
|
| Presenter: |
Principal DeWitte
|
|
|
Description:
Principal DeWitte will present information on a proposal to offer a "Begindergarten" section for next school year. Ms. DeWitte and I have been discussing our concerns about our kindergarten age eligible students who may not be socially, behaviorally, or academically ready for Kindergarten. The proposal for Begindergarten will provide these students an option to have more time to grow in these areas.

4. Discussion on Remaining Unsettled Employment Contracts:
|
|
| Presenter: |
Dr. Smith
|
|
|
Description:
Following the approval of the support staff contract and the teacher's contract, we have four individual contracts that remain unsettled at this time. The contracts are for Business Manager (C Keller), Technology Coordinator (K Wick), Payroll (A Franck) and Admin Asst/Accounts Payable (K Davis). All of these contracts expired on June 30, 2013.
On Monday evening, I would like to share a proposal for 13-14 and 14-15 for these contracts that would fall within the parameters established by the settlement on our union contracts and hopefully receive approval to the contract proposals at our November meeting. In addition, I would like to add one more year to the current contract for Technology Information Specialist (L Sawatzky) in order to have her contract line up with this set of two year contracts. |
