II. BOARD ACTION ITEMS:
A.
ACTION ITEM - BOARD VOTE TO APPROVE A NEW EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR/SCHOOL LEADER
The statement below from Board Member Karthy Chandra is to be entered into the public record:
"It is my pleasure to write a statement of support for Steven Carney as founding school leader of Rooted School Vancouver. Steven is supremely qualified for this position given his extensive tenure in the education field that included school, district, and regional leadership roles. He is deeply committed to Rooted’s mission to close achievement and opportunity gaps for young adults, as evidenced by his involvement on the Rooted School Vancouver board thus far. He’s also well-acquainted with other board members and has a head start in familiarizing himself with the information needed to excel in the role of school leader. For all those reasons and many more, I am confident that Steven is a worthy candidate for the position of founding school leader of Rooted School Vancouver."
