Joe Luongo opened the meeting at 7:35 PM.
District:
Technology Coordinator - The Board has received 20 applications
for this position. One of the prerequisites is that the
person has school experience associated with this position.
Middle School/High School:
Locker Rooms – Unsupervised - The issue
was that the locker rooms are not being supervised
by a staff member. Mr. Luongo stated that there
is a schedule and the locker room should be supervised during physical education
periods. When Mr. Luongo is given the exact periods this is occurring
he will investigate.
Elementary Schools:
Detention - This matter has been brought up
before so, therefore, Mr. Luongo made a final decision
regarding detention. Detention will only
be given under three conditions:
a. Principal
assigns for disciplinary reasons
b. Make
up test/quizzes
c. Lateness
to school
If a child does not do his homework, he will receive a zero and
will not be given school time to make up this work. The detention
policy will apply to Lincoln and Euclid School.
Extra Help
Days - Parents
wanted the doors to open a little earlier since extra help starts
at 7:45 AM. Therefore,
the doors will open at 7:40 AM on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Enrollment Issue -
Presently, the enrollment is 410 students at Lincoln and 359
students at Euclid. Mr. Luongo reassured us that the schools
are not over-crowded.
Doctor’s
Office - Parents who wished to volunteer
as kindergarten helpers were required to go to the school physician
to have a drug test. Two parents called Mr. Luongo and
complained about the cleanliness of the doctor’s office. Mr.
Luongo informed them that they must put the complaint in writing
and then he will investigate. Mr. Luongo
stated that the doctor’s office is old, but, to his knowledge,
is not unclean.
Next meeting is scheduled for Monday, February 25, 2008 at 7:30
PM.
Meeting adjourned at 8:50 PM.
