What other processes could we instate to streamline communication? 

David/Swati Requests: 
  • Getting everything together for the Quest grant. I believe we are still waiting on the 10K.
  • Create a flyer or something to market our Week Without Walls Exhibition and Dinner. It will be 11/16/19 from 4-5 followed by dinner. We would like something to also remind parents that we would like a $10 donation.
  • Finding venues for us to table now that recruitment season is starting up. If you could suggest places that could be high yield where you already have contacts, that would be ideal. We are hunting down contacts at the local K-5 schools, but any other ideas you have are welcome. Grocery stores, libraries, sports programs, after school programs, churches, etc are great but we need to develop contacts so we can get into those places. If the board could establish those contacts, that would be great!
  • Ordering or organizing some kind of treats for the students for Halloween. Maybe bags of candy or something else that is shelf stable so you wouldn't have to drop it off on the day of Halloween, unless you prefer to go that route. We have a total of 91 students.
  • Finish any outstanding Epicenter tasks
