Virtual Meeting Due to COVID-19
Thursday, April 9, 2020
- 7:00pm
This meeting is a meeting of the Governing Board in public for the purpose of conducting the Career Center's business and is not to be considered a public community meeting. There will be time for public participation as indicated by a specified agenda item.
Mission Statement: Central Nine exists to engage and empower students by providing career-based instruction in an innovative learning environment. We make an IMPACT on our students' personal and professional SKILLS, which enables them to succeed in post-secondary and career opportunities.
-We have an accepted offer on the construction trades house. If all goes well we will close May 1st.
-Next school year we would like to build a training house on campus for multiple programs to use in the future. The house would be a kit house paid for using Perkins funding. Construction trades would not use its funding. We will use next school year to find a new lot to build for 2021-2022.
-While all personnel are out of the building we have two projects happening in the office area. One is closing in the ECA treasurer's area with walls and a window for privacy and security. The other is to build an office in the student services area for a potential data specialist position. There is already a footprint of an office for this space.
-There are a handful of students who did not have devices to complete eLearning. We have set up times for students to come pick up Chrome Books to borrow during this time.
-We are working through our capital projects requests from instructors and other staff members. Cindy Payton and I will meet virtually with each person over the next few weeks and prioritize purchases to finish our school year.
-I met with the superintendents virtually Monday. We discussed formats for April board meetings, evaluations of certified and non-certified staff, eLearning, structure of school year through the end of the year, seniors, obtaining high school and college credit, and grades.
Next Governing Board Meeting: May 14, 2020
