This email will be distributed to the school community by the end of the school year, 5/23/2013. Dave Nabors reported on the Budget and Finance Committee meeting. The principal does not have much flexibility with the budget, so there is a question as to what is going to be the main purpose of this committee. There was discussion of carving out some discretionary funds to pay for a public relations/marketing person for the school. This would be for a couple of hours a week for the school year. Mr. Nabors is taking the lead on this initiative and will try to get something going by the summer. Kibbey Crumbley reported on county SGC training. Ms. Crumbley mentioned that the county is seeking to hire a Flexibility Coordinator. There still is not a formal process for flexibility requests. Karen LeCates discussed the data gathering and analysis initiative that will contribute to the development of the Strategic Plan for 2013-2014. Ms. LeCates distributed a draft environmental survey along with a School Strategic Planning Process. The survey will be distributed on Wednesday, 5/15 to community, education, religion, and business leaders in our community. It was discussed that we should make sure that all subgroups of our community are represented by our survey participants. Ms. Caplinger, Ms. Truax, Ms. Male, and Mr. Nabors were all going to follow up with additional survey participant suggestions. The meeting schedule for 2013-2014 was discussed. The Council would meet twice in the summer (main office conference room at 10am) and the last Monday of each month except December and May (media center conference room at 8am).
