    -Performance Services will present their facilities study in September.  I am looking at the morning or afternoons of either September 22nd or 24th.  We are attempting to have it in person at the Franklin Armory in order to accommodate all in attendance and observe social distancing. More to come soon.

    -We normally start program showcases in September.  We are recommending we hold off until further notice based on COVID-19.

    -Next month we want to have a first reading on the updated board policies.  Greg handled reading through them last time.  Will he do that again or someone else in order to have the first reading in September?

    -Central Nine has started off well.  As of Tuesday (when this is written) all staff members are present and at work.  Students are doing very well to start off they school year.  They may not say it, but they seem very glad to be back at school.  The year has actually started off well.


    6.1 Superintendent Meeting Notes

    The superintendents reported how their years have started off or what their plans are to start the year.

    The schools on a hybrid schedule are sending Central Nine students every day.  The buses are getting here on time in general.  Our parent pick-up is very crowded both morning and afternoon.

    We shared strategies for handling current and potential COVID-19 cases for both staff and student situations.

    If Central Nine does go to a hybrid schedule at some point this year we will have to choose one, but all schools are on different schedules at this point.  We won't match up.  The superintendents understood.
