III. Governance Committee

A.

Governance Committee Minutes

B.

Review Bylaws

Review and comment before the next governance committee so they can discuss and vote
Governance is creating a year-long calendar/plan for what the board does each year and when big dates are coming.

Also creating, for new and existing member, a finance 101, fundraising 101, etc. so that everyone feel prepared and that they understand all components of being a board member.

IV. Academic Achievement Committee

A.

Update

Met in November. 
Reviewed the dashboard and looked at current AIRWAYS data.  AIRWAYS is a practice version of IREAD and ILEARN.

Reviewed teacher leadership opportunities to take on more leadership and receive some compensation. 

3rd grade will not have a mid-year NWEA test because we are using AIRWAYS as markers.

V. Development Committee

A.

Update

Focused on event logistics and planning. 
Created a pdf flyer and save-the-date to be given to strategic partners/companies.  Don't let the pdf sponsorship limit someone who could potentially give more.

Megan creating a social media post that can be shared that has a link to the eventbrite tickets

Because the board meets every-other-month, Aaron will continue working to keep members involved since next meeting will be in February.  

Make a list of what the sponsor money will go to to help people envision their impact.

 
A. Sowder arrived.

VI. Facility Taskforce

A.

Update

Still in a holding pattern waiting for VCP response.

Update

Re-upping "Start your day the CCP way" to get more people into the building to see what we are doing in person.
