Scott is joining the meeting to discuss his proposal of moving forward with municipal bonds as a funding option for our forever facility project.

Dear Founding Board of Trustees,

July was a short month for our school as it was summer recess for the majority of our staff. However, there are some important updates to share below!

• Facilities: There was some follow-up environmental testing required at the forever facility site, foundation work has not yet begun until that is complete, which was anticipated to happen by the end of August. We have taken on some additional space within the 9 Hanover Place building on the first floor to be used for health/fitness classes.
• Students: We added 10 additional new students over the summer, however we also learned of about 5 student withdrawals, which brings our current enrollment number to 355 (25 students from our goal). We will continue to push over the next month to hopefully get at least 5 additional kindergarten kiddos before the school year begins so that we can be at 42 for Kindergarten enrollment. It does look increasingly unlikely that we hit 380 students this year, so we want to make budget adjustments accordingly.
• Staff: All non-instructional staff are back at work preparing for the new staff to return on 8/8 and the entire staff to be back on 8/11. We did have one staffing change occur over the summer that I will update the Team on.

Looking forward to discussing more tonight!

Together we RISE,

Cary
