• As the next step in our safety and security assessment, we will have our full site visit this Friday. This visit will include a full walkthrough of both campuses and a review of our current safety and security plans. Once we have their results and recommendations, I will share those with the board and staff.
• We are in the process of looking for a new auditor. Our current auditor is dealing with staffing issues and have been struggling to meet our deadlines. Acadia and several other charters have given me recommendations and I am currently working through proposals.
• We have received our 1st semester EOC scores. The following are the percentage pass rates.
  Math 1 - 88%
  Math 3 - 100%
  Bio - 85%
  English 2 - 96%
• Our new semester started at the high school. Staff and student feedback showed that it was very smooth. Congratulations to the high school admin team and staff for their hard work!
• We have a middle school dance this Friday and several other performances in the coming
  months (ex: Beauty & the Beast). We are excited to have families coming back into the building.
• In February, we will have another D&I staff training with Dr. Lanier (February 13th). We will be conducting classroom walkthroughs with him in the weeks that follow.
• Our lottery opened on January 3rd and we have had a tremendous response. Currently, we have over 700 applications. It closes on February 17th.
• We have our high school curriculum on February 2nd. High schoolers and rising 8th graders will have a chance to explore course information in order to begin fall 2023 registration.

On track with expenditures balancing incoming with outgoing; especially careful with having minimum needed for bonds.

Work ongoing with deciding on Zoom or in-person meetings.

Initial meeting completed with introductions and started looking at the school improvement plan. Next meeting on January 23rd on Zoom.

Results powerpoint presentation shared and discussed.

This three year strategic plan is 2020-2023, so we will need to review the goals at the next meeting (February) to then be approved in March. Some will need to be deleted as they have been completed. These have been shared with the School Improvement team as well.

To date, we have received $9,475.00. Student and faculty videos are still coming, but not completed yet.

During our faculty meetings, we will be talking with staff about how they want to spend those funds and what our future goals will look like. It’s challenging to determine those expenditures since we don’t know exactly how much money we will receive. It is likely what we will do is put out grants for teachers to apply for their classrooms.
