  • Discussion about student progress and communication–is there way families could see acadience reports besides asking the teacher to send it to them?  Margaret will look into that and get back w/ SCC.
• SNAP Plan Update – Rick Scheese – At your request, I moved the safe walk route line on 8000 South to East of the TRAX line. On 8000 South, there are only business West of the TRAX Line. The students in the complex West and South of the TRAX Line are already bused. There are not any students who would need to have the Safe Walk Route cross the TRAX Line on 8000 South.
  • SCC noticed that bus stops were not on the map.  Margaret will work to get a new one with the bus stops for our SNAP and website.

• Food/treat Policy – Valentine’s Day Plan
  • We will continue to not have food in our classrooms during holiday parties.  Margaret will send out communication reminding families to not send their children to school with Valentine’s Day cards that have treats attached.  Should families have feedback–they can join a SCC meeting to further discuss why this is a safety issue.
