LEADERSHIP MINUTES

November 2, 2006

BUDGET CARRY FORWARD

We have $10,082 in Carry Forward Funds this year. This is due to all departments tightening their belts last year and from renting our field to the National Speleological Society last August.

Each department will get the balance of the funds they had left at the end of the 05/06 school year less 20%.

The 20% will be used to create a budget for Culminating Project and the 9^th grade team. Each group will get $1000.

NEW LATE ARRIVAL SCHEDULE FEEDBACK

Each Department reported back with the thoughts on the proposal from their department. A good discussion ensued and the item was sent back to the committee for further revision.

FREAK DANCING

John VanHaalen met with a group of students, teachers and parents to discuss this issue. It was decided that Colin will draft a clear definition and model of Sehome policy for small group discussion. Teachers will receive training for this at Late Arrival on Thursday, November 8^th. They will discuss it with their 2^nd period classes on Wednesday, November 15^th. If a teacher does not feel comfortable leading the discussion a counselor or another staff person will step in and have lead the discussion.
