The Board examined Policy 16: Conflict of Interest again, and will be removing it as it is redundant with the work the Board did on Policy 17: Code of Conduct.<\/p>\n<p>2. The Board received a presentation from Lorna Munro, Divisional Indigenous Academic Achievement Teacher. Lorna went through the program and the successes, challenges and next steps that exist. It has been a challenging year due to Covid but Lorna has worked on getting additional space at SVRSS for a smaller cultural area with the hope in the future to expand upon. Very informative report.<\/p>\n<p>3. The Board discussed Covid and the recent changes at Bowsman School that put them into remote learning, the provincial announcement for possible funding for next year, and the impact on SVSD. There is some uncertainty with provincial funding with Covid that the Board is working through with the Secretary-Treasurer.<\/p>\n<p>4. The Board discussed the Advocacy work it is doing on Bill 64 to get information to all stakeholders including the Town Hall on June 10. The Board also talked about the parent engagement the province did on June 10, and the Board will be sending a survey out to parents and staff to get their thoughts. The Board talked about reaching all stakeholders and will be hosting a meeting with our local RM\u2019s in the fall.<\/p>\n<p>5. The Board discussed their own Board Evaluation, and the next steps in examining how they are doing.<\/p>\n<p>6. Since our last meeting, the Board announced the hiring of our new Superintendent\/CEO Cam Mateika. Cam is beginning the transition and is sitting in when able. He starts officially on August 1.
