V.A. Superintendent's Report
Discussion:
Mr.Chapman began his report with the membership report, saying enrollment is holding fairly steady. Enrollment is down three students from last month. He shared with the board members that Craig's PC will be working this summer to install the necessary equipment to support the one-to-one devices (Chromebooks/iPads) that will be available to students next school year. In regard to any changes in the board policy, Mr. Chapman said the administration is not dismissing any patrons or trying to ignore them or their request for changes in policies. The administration will look over policies over the summer. It's very hard to change policies during the year. There have been three days missed during this school year due to bad weather. Mr. Chapman explained that even after missing those three days, our calendar still exceeds the state minimum requirement for student attendance. He didn't feel anything would be gained by making up the days missed. There will be new technology available next year for teachers to implement. In the past, teachers have attended training prior to school starting in the fall. For next year the suggestion has been made to dismiss students at 2:00 p.m. on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of each month and teachers stay until 3:30 p.m. to receive training. That would be the equivalent of approximately 3 days. Mr. Chapman reminded board members the honors banquet will be April 29th at Sooner Legends in Norman and graduation will be held May 17th at 7 p.m., with board members meeting at 6:30 p.m. The transportation report and utilities summary were reviewed.

Third grade math and reading tests have been completed and the preliminary results should be received in May. Tomorrow fifth grade students will take their science test and it will be their first time to test online. Members of the PASS coalition have been present each testing day and have put posters up in the halls and provided snacks for the students.
