IV. Items for Discussion A. New Hiah School Colors - John Pymm In the absence of John Pymm, Chairman McBride invited Marjean McConnell to discuss the timeline for the new school colors. The new high school colors will not affect the inside color pallete. Color choices could be made from the colors offered in the product lines; however, custom colors selections might not be available. During the November 2, 2016 school board meeting will be a good time for the architects to discuss the color pallete with the board. B. New High School Advisory Committee Chairman McBride invited District Administration to discuss forming of the Advisory committee for naming new high school. The board first and foremost recognizes the work of the original Naming Committee. Emails were sent out to parents and patrons and as of date 1,800 different suggestions have been made! The next steps would be to narrow the list and form a committee. Discussion on forming a committee offered many scenarios. It was concluded that this decision needed to be made under motion and Chairman McBride asked for the Special Meeting agenda, being held 5:00p.m., be amended to finalize this committee. C. Strategic Plan — Scott Woolstenhulme 1. Agenda amended 9-27-2016 at 10:50 a.m. Chairman McBride invited Scott Woolstenhulme to review the District's 2016-2017 Strategic Plan. Mr. Woolstenhulme stated that the Strategic Plan was due to the state this week. He explained that this was a multiple strategic plan, including a literacy plan and a college and career advising plan. The District's vision was updated to read, "Develop confident learners who think critically, read thoughtfully, write effectively, solve complex problems accurately, and share talents fearlessly." He stated the plan shows a five year bench mark on reaching their goals. Goals include: • Reading: By 2020, at least 75% of students in each grade level will demonstrate proficiency in ELA on the ISAT.

Michaelena Hix, Director of Curriculum and Instruction defined the Comprehensive Literacy Plan as a more pertinent program for the elementary age student. Last year the legislature fostered a literacy plan for K-3. Monies provided from the state have helped us purchase a digital reading program to help students acquire literacy skills. This year the District has acquired the Lexia program and site licenses for all students who need extra reading help. Legislation wants parents to know what we're doing and suggested schools hold a Literacy Open House to instruct parents on how to use this program at home. The RTI after school program can help deliver instruction during the school day and allow for more intensive instruction for struggling students on improving reading skills and literacy comprehension. Morning instruction, afternoon follow-up, and parent time will help with retention. Mrs. Hix also stated the ACT Prep class presented to the board earlier in the month is set to start next week. V.
