Mr. Samson updated the committee on the status of OOI discussions and their recent proposals. Their proposal now involves elements not presented in their presentation to the Board. There was discussion about new details, site, advisory committee and the committee's concerns about the new proposals surfacing during the process of OOI's negotiations with general counsel to meet the stipulations of the Superintendent's letter. There was discussion about board composition and evaluation of OOI's charter. Dr. Canada and staff provided an update on the state report cards.
Discrepancies exist between the hard copy and the electronic copy.
This a.m. we sent report cards to each school via email with a letter of the Superintendent. It has been emailed to the Board. State report cards will be accompanied by our local report cards and statements by the District on local school information. Our key message is that this process was too rushed. Another key message is that the District cannot verify whether or not the state data is accurate.
