Katrina updated the group as to the fund's details.  The fund is currently over 2X where it was at this time last year.  There was a nice response to November's newsletter and Giving Tuesday.  There are plans for an additional newsletter towards the end of December and a end-of-year fund reminder.
-suggestion to get quotes from current students about how their fall has gone and what Parker means to them 

The group discussed the 10 Common Principles and which principles they feel are the most important.  Additional discussion occured around principles that might be appealing to people outside of Parker's community.
The group looked over the activity to be used during the Board's retreat in January 2021.
Feedback:
-Make sure there is a reflection period at the end of the activity
-Should trustees focus on a particular constiuency when thinking about what principle to focus on?  Constituencies included political groups, neighbors (Devens businesses), potential parents, potential individual supporters, foundations, and student prospects
-Split into 4 groups instead of 2 to give participants a larger role in the work
-Start with each person picking 3 principles in order of importance to them.  Then pick the top 4 and have trustees pick which group they wanted to join
