Ms. Getto reviewed the Committee's discussion and asked Mr. Romero to review the currently available end of school year data with the full Board.  The Committee had reviewed certain available information but asked that the leadership team provide a more concise means by which to evaluate overall outcomes.  Ms. Getto noted that the committee is working on developing more actionable Middle School metrics for the program and policy teams to work with.  

Ms. Getto noted that summer school was underway and more robust data would be available in early September for high school students.  Separately a question was raised on whether or not the school had a cell phone policy; it was clarified that the school system already had a 'no cell phone' policy.  

A discussion on the enrollment projections for the middle and high school was reviewed by the full board.  Leadership noted that the last several years saw an 80% student retention/persistence rate and that the recruitment team was factoring that into their projections.   

Ms. Moree presented the June financial statements.  She advised/reminded the Board that the Business Administrator had resigned her position and that, given the churn and competition for individuals in that skill set, the Committee was evaluating whether to use an outside firm to perform the functions.  At least three other charter schools in the region had outsourced their BA functions, and the committee was interviewing firms in this space.  Mr. Currie noted that he had posted the position and had received several resumes for the position.  He indicated he would review those with the Committee, as the position is a dotted line to the Board.  

The Board reviewed updated handbooks and electronic monitoring notices provided by outside counsel.  Leadership advised they were still working through some of the changes to ensure that the handbooks aligned with existing practice.  The Board had previously approved the books in concept and noted that outside counsel recommendations had been incorporated into the revised versions.
