Committee: The committee meet

et. Budgeting for high end items
such as
a bus in not an easy task. School
building needs are school vehicle,
west side elementary windows,
concession door, and maintenance
door and kitchen windows and hall-
way carpet. The curriculum group
came up with some excellent ideas.
Possibly sharing curriculum with oth-
er area schools, looking for a way
to entice students to do their best
during star testing. Possible option
to purchase a propane bus, with a
grant available. Ms John’s is thank-
ful for the group of people serving on
this committee. Mrs Wald asked if
there was discussion on any bigger
items possibly a new gym, new
flooring, parking lot? Ms Johns stat-
ed
the summary she provided were the
short-term goals. The 1-2 year goals
would be student parking, mpr
gym floor. The 3-5 year goals would
be adding 10-15 classrooms, a new
gym and replacing carpet in
existing rooms. The 5-10 year goals
are more new buses, and a new skid
steer. The board ask for bids to
replace carpet. Mr Gerding has
those bids, he will present them at
the next meeting. It is not in the
budget for this year. Cultural Im-
provement Committee: The commit-
tee met twice last month to review
the survey results. There were 39
staff responses to the survey. Mr
Tyler discussed some of the
suggestions from the survey.
Recommendations: create, display,
and follow an organizational
chart/chain of command, this would
pertain to everyone; create a fair &
flexible student discipline matrix, this
would be Mr Gerding and both prin-
cipals and possibly a few teachers;
increase board visibility & availabili-
ty, this item falls on the board;
create a complaint process & conflict
resolution, this pertains to everyone;
update staff handbooks & job
descriptions, this would be the
responsibility of administration; sup-
port & participate in PTA to engage
teachers and parents; increase staff
salaries seeking additional funding if
necessary, this would be the respon-
sibility of Mr Gerding and the board.
Mr Tyler thanked those serving on
the committee. The board needs to
provide a short bio to Mr Gorthy for
the website. Mr Gerding added
that he has met with both elementa-
ry & high school staff and discussed
the budget and how funds are
spent. Recognition of the Surrey
Education Association. M/S/C
Johns/Vannatta to recognize the
Surrey Education Association. Em-
ergency Procedures: Under the lock-
