After this update, committee members provided feedback to Dr. Graham around opportunities for growth aligned with the strategic vision.

After reviewing the monthly update one-pager from Dr. Graham, the committee used the time during this portion of the agenda to review the final proposed budget (analyzing budget drivers and EFA funding allotments) as well as the revised uniform policy (sharing the ICU process staff engaged in with all relevant stakeholder groups). 

There were no agenda items brought forth from committee members. 

With regards to next steps, Dr. Graham shared with the committee that the academic committee will be recommending approval of the McKinney-Vento policy for the admission of homeless students. As a pre-opening condition under SCPCSD, Dr. Graham shared that a formal approval of the Conflict of Interest policy and Director's Oath of Office is required during the planning year. Since the policy & oath of office was previously approved during the application process, Dr. Graham asked that the Executive Committee recommend formal approval for both at the June 10th meeting since no changes have been made. Finally, he shared that the staff is working with Mr. Loadholt to vet audit firms and will be sharing that information with the finance committee. Dr. Graham ended this part of the agenda by reminding the committee that final approval of the budget will be listed as an action item on the agenda for the full board meeting on June 14. 

No member of the committee commented.
