● Review of Goals and Expenditures for the 2014-2015 School Site Plan

The 2014-2015 School Year School Site Plan was reviewed and there was a discussion about the $1,700 left under Title 3, which had been earmarked for materials and supplies for our EL students. Suggestions were made about what kind of materials and supplies would be most useful for our EL students. Some ideas that were generated were math manipulatives, guitars for the ELs in our guitar club, or using the money for an After School Program. It was decided that the costs of the different materials and supplies would be researched and would be presented to the council for an action item on the following agenda.

●      Input from SSC Members

            SSC Members discussed the pros and cons of each of the ideas, with the majority of the members agreeing that math manipulatives and and guitars would be the most beneficial for the students. Prices were going to be researched so at the next SSC meeting a decision could be made on where to spend the money.

           

●      Comments, items for next agenda

            Mr. Smith informed council that we are currently working on School Safety Plan that will need to be reviewed and signed by school site council and that at our next meeting we will discuss any issues or concerns.
