The terms for each new trustee will be discussed in Executive Session at our next Board meeting. 

The designated leader for the Charter Renewal Process will be responsible for overseeing all of the renewal components and inputs including the site visit, written application, providing performance outcomes for academic curriculum, enrollment and special populations and sharing information on stakeholder satisfaction, compliance, financial health and board strength. 

ED Nicholas Tishuk reported that we are currently in a good "normal" phase. We are back to running old programs including the school's Saturday program, We're also in a strategic phase, as we focus our retreat following this meeting on the Charter Renewal Process. 

We are in a financially stronger position that anticipated. We purchased more technology in the last year to strengthen our position to pivot, when necessary. Yesterday, NYC's positivity rate was 4%. In the school, we have a very low incident of COVID or COVID spreading. We have prepared our students and staff for a potential shutdown, whenever necessary by deploying hot spots for Wifi access and computers (Pads). 

ED clarified the difference between synchronous (adult supervised virtual learning where everyone is there live on screen) versus asynchronous learning (which is self paced, self directed, video modular driven).
