3. The Board reviewed correspondence from Nicole Bobick, SVTA President, and discussed with Nicole and Brian Dormer the recent changes announced by the department, and how that affects students and staff. Nicole will be talking with Principals this week, and the Division is working on what these changes will look like.<\/p>\n
4. The Secretary-Treasurer updated the Board on the Disposal of the Birch River School and Property.<\/p>\n
5. The Board discussed its Self-Evaluation Tool. Every year the Board evaluates its progress and how it feels it is doing and then discusses the results as a group to try and find ways for improvement.<\/p>\n
6. The Board discussed SVRSS Graduation options. The Board recognizes that no student asked for Covid-19 and wants to help graduates find a meaningful way to celebrate graduation but also realizing that any option must be safe, manageable, and adhere to recommendations.<\/p>\n
7. Planning will continue for June, and staff will begin planning for options in September. The Superintendent reminded the Board that there is a Question and Answer Zoom Session on Thursday, May 28 from 3:00-4:00 p.m. for all students and parents.
