AgriScience Teacher of the Year; award winners are agricultural teachers who emphasize the application of science in the classroom.

Rationale:
Members of the Killingly community are encouraged to share their thoughts with the Board of Education and are invited to do so during this segment of the meeting. When appropriate to do so, members of the Board and the administration may respond to comments. However, in consideration of those in attendance and in an effort to proceed in a timely manner, follow-up discussion may need to take place outside of the meeting setting.

7. Report of Killingly High School Student Board Members

8. Report of Superintendent of Schools and Assistant Superintendent of Schools
|
|
| Speaker(s): |
Kevin Farr and Colin McNamara
|
|
|
Rationale:
|
||
| : |
8.A. Opening Day 2012
|
|
| Speaker(s): |
Kevin Farr
|
|
|
Rationale:
It is my intention to provide a clear and concise picture of the first days of the 2012-2013 school year here in Killingly. I look forward to our work together in the coming years.

8.B. Alliance District Application
|
|
| Speaker(s): |
Colin McNamara
|
|
| : |
8.C. Central Office Relocation
|
|
| Speaker(s): |
Kevin Farr
|
|
|
Rationale:
I would like to take the opportunity during this agenda item to make a proposal with financials (see attachments) to move the Central Office to the Old HS Main Office area and to include PPS personnel as well from KIS. As we move forward with the Board Goal of Reconfiguration the Central Office Staff may be relocated again (i.e. Renovation of Old Vo-Ag wing per various reports). Having all Central Office Staff in the same area will allow information to move more quickly between Superintendent's Office, PPS, and Finance. The ultimate savings to the district will be to take the current C.O. building at 369 Main St. offline completely. I respectfully make this proposal with the full knowledge that further discussion will ensue for the benefit of the district and its students and families.
|
||
| : |
8.D. Additional Speech and Language Pathologist Request
|
|
| Speaker(s): |
Kevin Farr
|
|
|
Rationale:
I would like to make the board aware of a situation that may exist between KIS and KHS Speech Language Pathology Services. It has come to my attention that we need to discuss the level of service currently available at these two schools. PPS is putting together information pertinent to this for our discussion, but was not available to attach to the agenda. Since you will not have the information in a timely manner, I have no expectations of action this month.
