The committee discussed the survey results and the process we should use to discuss them. Tom and Aaron suggested focusing on the red results, the things that stand out to us for growth areas. Rachel suggested we also look for top strengths to share with the whole board but we can start with growth areas.

There are 7 potential areas of growth:

1. 33% of trustees disagreed with "I review a data dash board on a regular basis that includes measures of student success other than test scores". p.15

Rachel explained that academic achievement looks monthly at one but not the whole board. The whole board 

2. 44% of trustees said they disagreed with "The board knows who will take over in the event of an emergency in which the school leader cannot lead". p.18

3. 33% either don't know or said no (22%) to "Our board conducts a self assessment every year" p. 20

4. 44% don't know/don't do bDiscussion between balance of governance and management - and related question is 33% don't know/don't do about board staying away from big decisions that management should make p. 22

5. only 33% agreed that Taking eh pulse of the community and stakeholders p. 23

6.  I or another board member has initiated a discussion about whether any school policy or practice may disproportionately impact some students negatively and or advantage others - p. 26

7. red/area for growth is relationships with legislators p.28

We will present these to the board and lead a discussion to get consensus around the top 2-3 for VPCS.

The committee will continue discussion of maturity model after we process the results of the survey and determine if there are any actions or implications for us to act on.
