REMOTE LEARNING:
Exec. Director advised live-teaching has been ramped-up to include more teachers and more periods.  Challenges experienced in grading assignments.  School administration supporting teachers.  Grading will continue on a 1-4 scale for standards-based accountability. 
Scheduling has to keep family needs in mind.  Staff continues to reach every student as best they can without overwhelming families.  

DASHBOARD:
A final  version of the remote learning dashboard is going to be presented to BOT and discussed at the May 20th meeting.  School staff assured the information will be populated with data showing student achievement in specifically identified  ELA/Math standards  Data will include IEP student progress.  Attendance will also be populated.  It was suggested that Dashboard include data on unusual family circumstances or choice which has prevented service from being rendered to students (as well as documentation for record).  

Exec. Dir. conversation with Ann Edwards (LTL):

• Due to substantial rate increases by this vendor, services during the next academic year will mirror the current year.  
• Correlation and cross-walking and mapping with existing reading curriculum is not a service offered by this vendor.

Maria Casale offered to work with school level personnel to fill this void and create needed crosswalks between OG and HMH curriculum.

Amy Margolis suggested that a school psychologist be hired to perform curriculum mapping instead.

12 questions requiring comprehensive responses was submitted to NYSED by ED.  It was a thorough, thoughtful document reflecting best practices, structure, and lessons learned during the founding year of Bridge Prep.  Document will be sent to BOT.  

Board Member George Winn arrived as a guest to the meeting during the adjourn process.
