Ms.Nourse asked if the interest in majors is as expected and following the usual patterns.Ms. Bouchard <br /> responded that with the preliminary numbers, we had high numbers in the computer-based programs, <br /> such as multi-media and DVC as those programs had trended heavy for the past couple of years. She <br /> added that multi-media and animal science are popular, as the new programs typically are popular, and <br /> that surprisingly,welding was extremely popular with a lot of students. <br /> Mr. Stulin asked if there was any reason that is happening in the marketplace or in high schools to explain <br /> why students would be so interested in welding. Ms. Bouchard noted that she does not have a specific <br /> answer as to why. <br /> d. Lexington BattleGreen Run Highlights <br /> The Lexington BattleGreen run was held on November 7th. Ms. Bouchard shared that it was a beautiful <br /> day with great Minuteman participation. <br /> The Culinary Arts Depal lruent had a tent that served over 16 gallons of chili. It was a sell out! She noted <br /> that there were over 20 students and staff either volunteering or running in the race, health students <br /> shadowed the on-site medical team that was on duty, and other students guided runners along the route <br /> and handed out water. <br /> One of our seniors placed first in his age group for the 5K. She shared that it was a great day for the <br /> community and a terrific event that raises money for scholarships for Minuteman. <br /> e. Test and Stay Program Update—Dr.Amy Perreault <br /> Dr. Perreault provided an update on the Covid-19 Test and Stay Program and reported that there are 364 <br /> students who have signed up and given consent to participate in the Test and Stay Program. To date, 66 <br /> tests have been run,and while that is not many tests,she believes it is a testament to the school community <br /> following the protocols and guidelines that have been set up,as well as the diligence of our Health Office <br /> tracking and ensuring that students and staff are not coming to school until they have been cleared. <br /> We have had one student and two staff members test positive for COVID the entire school year. She <br /> shared that the 66 tests number is low as the school has not had to do a lot of contact tracing and testing <br /> five days in a row. According to our nurses,when students are symptomatic,they choose not to test and <br /> stay because they are exhibiting so many symptoms that it would require them to get a test with their <br /> pediatrician or primary care doctor. <br /> She added that the program is being used as it was intended and Minuteman is benefitting from using it, <br /> but we are not using it a very high rate which shows that staff, parents, and students are following the <br /> protocols. <br /> f. Fall 2022 Admissions Update—Anthony Chiariello <br /> o Applications Received to Date(final item in the report) <br /> o Showcase Day—Wednesday,November 10th <br /> o Open House Events—Sunday,November 21" <br /> o Virtual Family Information Session—November 15, 2021 <br /> Mr. Chiariello provided an update on the admission events which have taken place and the application <br /> numbers received to date. <br /> 4 <br />
