Remy Coombs
Johnny asked to vote on the minutes; April's minutes were approved.
Joyce:
Question on minutes: she reported that students were taking buses that were not their own.
Students were getting on the wrong bus, and that was a problem for the school. Too many kids
on a bus.
Motion to approve: minutes were approved. Everyone approved them.
Johnny: asked if people looked at SIP.
Beth: read it. Likes the paired down version, and felt it was easy to read.She wondered if tech
and learning was woven through the plan. Use of technology for learning didn't seem to be part
of the plan. She appreciated the link to DEI.
We will update the names and finalize the plan in September.
Johnny noted he hired Jeremie Bateman, provided his history as well as his current status at
Clarke.
The other role is Dr. Stephanie Harvey. She went to Diamond. Her daughter/sister went to
Lexington. She is excited to be back in the community.
They start in July. They will be around beforehand as well - but formally starting July 1 st.
Johnny asked for staff updates: none
Parent/caregiver updates: none
Open discussion: none
Johnny: this is the last meeting. Any comments on the process for how site council works for
next year?
Katina Lawdis: can we keep meetings virtual next year?
Joyce noted that parents are elected, and the PTO will hold something. She noted that parents
had terms. Joyce noted that she felt 1 or 2 get togethers would be nice. PTO staggers the roles.
Remy felt it was also nice to see people, and to arrange a few get togethers would be nice.
Joyce thinks elections should happen now. Beth will send a note to the PTO president.
Move to adjourn: 7:20
