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.

8.A. Central Office Relocation
|
|
| Speaker(s): |
Mr. Kevin Farr and Mr. Colin McNamara
|
|
|
Rationale:
After the hearing at town council and the appropriate waiting period the work began in earnest at the site of the new central office on Westfield Ave. Painting is almost complete and the electrical is wrapping up. The carpets and furniture will be next along with the phones and I.T. construction. I believe that we are on track for the central office to move to that facility by the middle of January with the PPS folks a couple of weeks thereafter. I will be working closely with Mr. Mailhot and Brian O'Connell as well as input from PPS moving forward.
Thanks again to the Board and Town Council for supporting this move. |

Rationale:
I have feedback from my administrative team and would prefer to share with all of you during the discussion on Dec. 12th.

8.C. School Governance Councils and the Killingly Public Schools
|
|
| Speaker(s): |
Mr. Kevin Farr
|
|
|
Rationale:
It is my belief that a strong and collaborative school governance council would be beneficial at any school in our district. I have been to two meetings at the high school. Special thanks to Alexis Rich for providing the materials from the CABE/CAPSS conference to assist our School Governance Councils moving forward.
These materials are provided by Shipman and Goodwin, who also happen to be our attorneys. In the coming weeks I will also be attending the School Governance Council at KMS. |
