New Trustee Application Discussion

CoT discussed G. LeFave's application for RVCS Trustee. His background in finance and experience as a member in the Finance committee will positively add to the skill set of the Board of Trustees. CoT will recommend LeFave to the BoT to become a Trustee. 

 

CoT discussed recommending B. MacQuade for the position of Teacher Representative Trustee for the RVCS board of trustees. The value of a second consecutive 1 year term was discussed and CoT strongly believes that this will enable the teacher's representative Trustee to contribute in an increased and essential capacity to the Board.
