~We have several ‘new to ERA’ events this summer. The high school team has planned a two social meetups. One will be a hike and the other an ice cream social. Kindergarten will host a meet and greet playdate during the last week of July. The families will have a chance to see their classrooms, meet each other, and students will get to play on the playground. These events are sure to be fun social times welcoming new families. 
~The Admin team will have a summer retreat on Tuesday, July 13th. 
~We will be announcing open house dates/times after the retreat.  
~D&I professional development days have been scheduled. There will be additional training opportunities, meetings, and town halls throughout the year. 
~Today marks the 25th anniversary of the bill that allowed for charter schools in NC. We are proud to be one of the original charters and look forward to celebrating school choice throughout the coming year. 

There are no PATH updates at this time. Planning to have a few summer meet ups and looking forward to reinvigorating PATH this coming school year.

At the last meeting it was discussed that the group is hoping to engage more families in Future Visions and a grounds/outdoor space sub-group in the 2021/2022 school year and beyond. 

Kristi Anspach and Lisa Bair met Monday to go over the budget. There are some monies in the budget that need to be spent this year and the school is focusing on using that for items to be used in the next school year. We are on track to close out the fiscal year with a surplus.

The proposed budget for fiscal year 2022 was presented and discussed. 

In order to have the teacher workdays needed for the Diversity and Inclusion work with Dr. Lanier the calendar needed to be adjusted to add two additional teacher workdays. Once approved this will be shared with teachers and families and updated on the school website.

The board is very grateful for the service of the three departing board members: Margaret Barr, Dianne Gonzalez and Kristi Anspach. 

Welcome to Pamela Norcross and Jeremy Greene!
