Board Meeting Recap – March 11th

At last night’s meeting we had an excellent presentation from Ms. Jody Geilinski regarding the South and West Washtenaw Consortium. Ms. Liz Galimore and Mr. Tim Timoszyk were also present to share information regarding the program.

The SWWC is a five district consortium – Saline, Chelsea, Dexter, Manchester and Milan – providing Career and Technical Education programs. It was interesting to see the new developments in program offerings, and also the funding issues tied to the federal government.

Among other items discussed…

We continue to work on overhauling the board policy manual – moving to a version aligned with the Michigan School Board Association model manual.

Assistant Superintendent Thomas Wall shared funding information from Lansing – gloomy – but predictable.

We also thanked Trustee Kim Van Hoek for her work coordinating our Meal-In-A-Basket, which finished 2nd in voting at the Craft Show.

It was noted that the Woodland Meadows Principal position for 2008-2009 is now posted and we are accepting applications.
