Hopefully, everyone has had an opportunity to review the evaluation document that was emailed to you by Christina and can respond according to the instructions she has provided.

This is a renewal of the Statewide Curriculum Project from last year. Several dozen of our teachers have completed the training and with the adoption of the 301 plan, we hope to be able to offer it to every CTE teacher within our District.

7.C. Consideration to adopt CAVIAT 301 Plan - Action Item
Description:
Prior to the meeting, the Board appointed members of the 301 plan Review Committee, Colette, Mr. Cluff and myself will review the proposed plan and hopefully, have a completed document for your consideration. Failing that effort, we will bring it forward to the December meeting. Although this is not a time sensitive issue, I would like to have a plan in place so that we can forward to the Az Dept. of Ed. for their approval. The plan will allow us to use the $20 K we have accumulated for the purpose of teacher training and when we hire our own staff, it will allow us to offer an annual 301 stipend to the instructors.

7.D. Consideration to revise FY13-14 board meeting agenda with following changes (Action Item):
Description:
The December change is being proposed because CAVIAT board members and staff will be attending conferences the first two Fridays in December. The proposed date - December 20th- is the third Friday of the month.
The February date change and location is being proposed because we were unable to hold our meeting in Grand Canyon last month and need to reschedule our visit there. Our February meeting was originally scheduled for Friday the 14th but if we want to hear student presentations, we'll have to change it to Thursday the 13th or consider another date altogether. |
