Opening Items

Administration has presented to calendar options. 

Discuss possible changes to bylaws, including possible need for statement defining governance role of board in order to give some clarity on what needs formal board approval.

In the Bylaws, Wesley adopts the Atlanta Board of Education's policies on ethics and conflict of interest. A copy is attached. Do we want to edit these? If not, we should download a copy each July when the new board starts and put it somewhere that can be easily found.

 

The purpose of this paper is to create an institutional blueprint for how the lottery has been used up until now in order to give guidance to future board members. 

Update on current status; who is participating, what is the current timeline. 

Discuss need for Board Member on Advisory Committee in light of Donica's email:
There are technically two committees: The Implementation Team & The Advisory Committee
- Advisory Committee: This committee is comprised of school leaders (i.e. Executive Directors) and/or board representatives from each participating school, district senior leaders, and a senior rep from SchoolMint as needed. Mr. Marshall currently sits on this committee. Board members may attend if they choose to. As of right now, the committee will have virtual meetings each month, beginning 2nd semester. Additional details from Matt Underwood are forthcoming.
- Implementation Team: This team is comprised of school staff that will execute day-to-day functions of Apply APS and SchoolMint. Ms. Johnson and Ms. Smith (registrar) currently sit on this team. Virtual and/or in-person meetings are held monthly, and weekly beginning next semester.
