SUCCESSION PLAN
Although there still needs to be an approved written policy, Nina has shared three documents with the committee that inform the writing of Succession Plans. There is a bulk of the work done here in these documents and the Board needs to inform the "grain size" for the plan or approve it as is.
If the HOS suddenly becomes unavailable, part of the plan should be a communication to all stakeholders and the wider community, written and ready to go that delineates the Succession Plan.
Karl Smith also sent a few articles earlier that can also inform the discussion.
Nina is working with the Admin. Team on listing their job descriptions, but there also needs to be a plan for the "keys to the kingdom" if something unfavorable happens.
Action item: Members will read through all documents from Nina for a discussion at the next Personnel Meeting in order to draft a Succession Plan..
Motion: Artie moved that...John Stienberg seconded. Voted unanimously.

II. The Val-ed survey subscription is up for renewal and there was discussion about renewal. There are pros and cons as with any survey. The committee agrees that the price for us is decent considering it is by Principal. We also have several years of data for comparison. However, many more people completed the Board on Track one. Roughly 90% completed the BOT survey vs. 50-60% completing Val-ed. It will be up to the Board to decide.
