2. Review of Contract Recommendations:
|
|
| Presenter: |
Dr. Smith
|
|
|
Description:
I, along with the licensed negotiations committee members, have been working on finalizing contract proposals for the Principal's Bargaining group (includes building principals and the addition of Ms. Sparby as Asst. Principal/Activities Director), Curriculum & Assessment TOSA (Carol Lagergren) and Building & Grounds Director (Jeff Heine). The settlements end up with the range of 6.55% of the teacher's contract settlement and 7.39% settlement of the Paraprofessional contract). I will bring summary sheets to the meeting for your review.

3. Updates/Discussion Items:
|

| Subject: |
3.1. Achievement & Integration Update:
|
|
| Presenter: |
Dr. Smith
|
|
|
Description:
There has been an adjustment in our Achievement & Integration revenue from MDE. Our initial allotment has been decreased from $60,000 to $45,961 and we are now able to utilize incentive revenue to help pay for some of our summer school programming. The allocation for incentive revenue is $17,815.
The essence of our plan will change slightly as we will be adding some summer school coordination with Sibley East and we will be eliminating the proposed speaker from our previous budget. |

|
Description:
I have had preliminary conversations with pre-school staff, the transportation committee and Stier Transportation about the possibility of transporting pre-school students on our regular route buses. I would like to continue this discussion with the full board.

3.3. iPad Insurance Fee Discussion:
|
|
| Presenter: |
Dr. Smith
|
|
|
Description:
We have discussed the concept of an iPad insurance fee for each device that is eligible to be taken home by the students (this eliminates Chatfield Elementary). We are proposing a fee of $25 per device for students with a reduced rate of $10 per device for those families eligible for reduced price lunches. In addition, the recommendation is for a fee of $5 per device for those eligible for free meals.
It has been brought up that we should have a family max of some kind for this program as well. I would like to hear the board's thoughts on this concept before developing a formal proposal. |
