Meeting began at 8:05 am.

Enrollment Update (Kim)

Kim shared the May 31 enrollment report. Enrollment continues to hold slightly higher than the October rate and equal to last month. Kindergarten Round Up resulted in 26 students for next year – second highest in the district. A total of 105 students registered district wide (normal class size is between 260 and 300)

Construction Bond Update

Construction bond was passed easily. District will be hiring a project manager to oversee construction at all sites. Advertisement for position should be out now and it is hoped that someone local will apply and be selected.
A Bond Oversite committee will be formed to insure money is spent on approved projects and to determine what, if any, projects on the “left-overs” list would be completed should there be any extra money
Bonds will be sold sometime this summer or next year when the rates are best.
Small projects and energy issues maybe done this summer.

Summer Projects

We have a small list, mostly bond related. Teachers are giving Terry a list of projects they have. The cafeteria floor should be done this summer along.

2008-09 Meeting Schedule

Good of the Order

Pay shed was tagged this weekend. Police were called and photos taken.
Kim spoke to Ryan Nelson, the student who fell from the roof in March and his mother. He confirmed he was climbing the roof and fell when he attempted to jump to the tennis court fence. He indicated that he might not have climbed if he had known it was trespassing. Signs have now been posted in the front and rear of the building.

Next meeting will be held in September.

Meeting closed at 8:40 am.
