AGENDA
Eastham Elementary School 7:00 p.m. |
I. CALL TO ORDER/AGENDA CHANGES
II. CITIZENS SPEAK
III. PRIORITY BUSINESS
A. Administrators’ Reports
B. Consider Sabbatical Request
Karen Wharton has requested a sabbatical to study the Reggio Emilia approach to early childhood education. Karen will meet with me prior to the meeting to review her plans. Should the Committee approve this sabbatical, she will be paid at least step 1 of her present salary scale (M30 - $42,993). I will present a recommendation at the meeting, and provide it by email or fax prior to the meeting if I am able to do so.
C. Consider Committee Procedures
To ensure that the Committee is prepared to discuss whatever matters come before it, the Chair suggests consideration of the following guidelines:
1. Subjects not on the agenda for a given meeting may be placed on the agenda for the following meeting, without further discussion.
2. Should the Committee choose to discuss a subject not on the agenda, debate will be closed after ten minutes, and further consideration scheduled for the next meeting.
Neither of these guidelines shall restrict any individual’s opportunity to seek that a subject be placed on the agenda, by notifying either the Chair or the Superintendent at least a week prior to the meeting.
Recommendation: Approve Committee Guidelines
