IV.A. Superintendent's Report
Rationale:
Please note the personnel report as you will find several new hires reflected in it. Although most of the new hires were reported last month, we still have a few who came on board in the last few weeks. I will update the Board on our annual convocation, professional development, and the opening of school. As was previously reported, our open enrollment period for health insurance options occurred in June and then again for two weeks in August. Of the 126 employees who were eligible for the HSA option, 98 have now chosen to switch to the new high deductible plan. This 78% participation rate is excellent considering this is our first year on this new plan. On August 22 we held the first meeting of the Strategic Planning Steering Committee to begin to develop some core concepts that will help guide the development of this plan. Doreen Marvin from LEARN facilitated what was a very thought provoking and productive session. Our next step is to review the information that was collected from that session and to coordinate the method of obtaining feedback that the group decided upon. As we move forward, we will continue to report to you on our progress. By now you should have received your official invitation to the September 19 ribbon cutting ceremony for LOLHS. The event will begin at 9:00 a.m. in front of the building. We are looking forward to showing off our new building to those who attend. |
