Amend the Agenda <br />Chairman Lords read the Motion and Order to Amend Agenda and asked if there would be a motion to amend the agenda. <br /> <br />MOTION: DeVere Hunt made the motion to amend the agenda as stated. Annette Winchester seconded. The vote was 3 in favor with 0 opposed <br />and 0 abstentions. Motion passed. <br /> <br />IV. School Improvement and Restructuring Plans <br />A. Sandcreek Middle School <br />B. Hillcrest High School <br />C. District <br />Mr. Woolstenhulme presented the school improvement and restructuring plans to the Board. He explained that the principals create their own plans <br />with the support of the District level administration. Each school should be holding a monthly improvement team meeting that helps to create the <br />plans that will be emailed to Boise. Both of the schools made AYP last year but they are still required to submit an improvement plan to the state. <br />The District is also required to submit a plan to the state. <br /> <br />Chairman Lords asked if there would be a motion to approve the school and district improvement plans to go to the state. <br /> <br />MOTION: Annette Winchester made the motion to approve the improvement plans as submitted. DeVere Hunt seconded. The vote was 3 in favor <br />with 0 opposed and 0 abstentions. Motion passed. <br /> <br />V. Items for Discussion <br />A. Professional Technical High School Name – Craig Miller <br />Mr. Miller reported that the advisory board for the professional technical high school had been meeting. They need more input on the proposed <br />name and mascot. Chairman Lords stated that we need to educate the public on the importance of this type of school. Mr. Miller has brochures <br />that will be available at parent teacher conferences over the next two weeks. He has sent copies to all five Board members. Hopefully the <br />Board will make a decision on the name at the next Board meeting in March. <br /> <br />B. Patron Input to Teacher Evaluation – Marjean McConnell <br />Mrs. McConnell reported that the committee has decided to have the cards available during the month when parent-teacher conferences are <br />held. This would be during November so there would be an end date and give the teachers and principals time to review and meet for <br />evaluation purposes before the February 1st deadline. Cards would be given to teachers in December and principals would meet with teachers <br />in January. Then the reflection sheet will be placed in personnel files by February 1st. Once we go through the process, this spring during <br />parent-teacher conferences as a pilot, we recognize there may need to be some changes. Then we will add this as part of the evaluation <br />policy. The pilot this spring will help teachers see what it is before it part of their evaluation. An explanation for parents will be placed on the <br />PowerSchool home page and sent home in school newsletters. Mrs. McConnell stated that there are still questions about how the parent input <br />will be used. This is separate from pay-for-performance and has nothing to do with teacher’s bonuses. Hopefully once this becomes routine, <br />we will be able to simplify the process. <br /> <br />C. Staffing – Marjean McConnell <br />Mrs. McConnell reported that we will need to add positions at the high schools next year because of the number of students moving up. We <br />may need to add counselors or instructional coaches. She requested thoughts from the Board regarding adding back these positions if funding <br />becomes available. When asked what the instructional coaches did at the schools, Mrs. McConnell stated that they worked individually with <br />students who were not making progress to teach them study skills. They also worked individually with teachers to help them with teaching <br />strategies. Ultimately, the position would be to work with and strengthen teachers. These people worked at the high schools and the schools in
