Dr. Cline and Ms. Minott discussed the board's goals, emphasizing that the board should set clear objectives for the next few months. They stressed that the functions of the school and the board should remain distinct. The board will not simply approve everything but will understand the school's operations without interfering in daily activities. Those elected will manage day-to-day operations and lead the school. The board's goal is to design objectives that best guide the school. We are currently seeking new board members that will be committed to the school.

Ms. Minott shared the exciting news that our Charter Renewal has been approved, giving us three more years. The new charter contract will be mailed out soon for everyone to review.

Ms. Laila Minott explained that we hired an EC teacher through an agency because we couldn't find one directly. She discussed the pros and cons of using an agency, noting that EC teachers are in high demand and hard to find. The agency was the best option to fill the position. Ms. Minott also mentioned that she and Ms. Pooja, the EC director, applied for a grant to get someone to act as a one-on-one assistant to help support a student in the classroom.
