All staff have been asked back for the coming academic year. Were able to give a cost of living raise to staff. School is satisfied that staff, students and families are on board and that students' needs are being met. No summer school but planning to open the week of August 24th, pending future guidance from City and State. Noted that the zip codes of our community were greatly affected by the virus, so we are keeping this in mind. 
Seniors will pick up a graduation packet this week at the school, and the graduation ceremony will be live-streamed on Friday. An in-person event will be planned once it is possible to return to the building.
Concerns were raised around students' learning slide and the importance of providing summer school. The school will be providing packets of summer materials to all but not summer school. Ms. Russo expressed confidence in the school's preparedness to address the March-August slide.

Did not have a meeting in the last couple weeks, enrollment and financial snapshot was circulated. 
Update on PPP: regulations and clarifications are fluid, but so far we anticipate that the monies provided will be forgivable.
Looking at Budget to Actuals for Q3, we are ahead on revenue and have under spent on certain expenses. Current performance is better than budgeted as of Q3. 
The Treasurer noted the diligent work of Lisa-Renee, and of Nick and Vicky in securing the PPP. The Treasurer thanked all Finance Committee Members for their time and dedication.

No update, it is the right time to re-engage and restart the campaign. As a reminder, event is currently slated for September 23rd.

Letter written by the Board will be included in the Graduation packet. School has been doing a lot of engagement around this event and we are looking forward to it.
Committee also collected videos from Board members which will be presented to students as part of the graduation.
Continuing to work on goals for the committee for next year. 

Discussion of the provision of virtual counseling for students and their families in dealing with COVID-19 and civil rights issues.
The school has a 9-member team whose role it is to support students socio-emotionally and they have been working closely with students all year. For staff who participate in school benefits, we offer TalkSpace for virtual mental health counseling.
The School and Board are looking forward to a conversation on how to improve our response and do more on those issues, including providing families with resources such as counseling.

Lisa-Renee thanked Victor are Treasurer, and congratulated him on his new position.
Joe praised the Board team's commitment, and his expressed his confidence in the new Chair. Thanked the Board for the honor of being a founder and Chair. Joe sent his prayers for the safety and health of everyone, and shared his sentiments for staff and students.
