| District SILT Survey | No | District online SILT survey was taken by SILT members. |
| SILT to-do-list | Yes | Some of the items on the to-do list are already in progress. In May, room assignments will be studied. Room 2 will be the self-contained Early Childhood room due to bathroom facilities, air conditioning, and the extra outer door. This is the only definite change at this time. The incoming self contained classrooms will be spread throughout the building. The group agreed to move the music room back to room #8. We clarified SILT leadership expectations. We'll need to assemble a small action team to try to recruit parents. We would like to have 3 parents on SILT for next year. We are considering 2 teams for the PDSA training from June 17-19. We would like to involve individuals who have not yet been involved with PDSA. Class lists were discussed. We will send out the profile sheet again in late April/early May. We will have a L.C. action team. Part of the L.C. area will be used as a "tech center" with a projector up, a screen up. The L.C. area will encompass the entire library area. Literacy & Gifted will be located elsewhere in the building. The SEAT is in the process of creating a proposed special events calendar for next year. days. Teachers seemed to like scheduling these events on the SIP days when The Special Events team will come up with projected dates/times for these special events. STAT changes were discussed with a goal of improving the STAT process. STAT will involve more electronically obtained information. Our goal is after a teacher completes an online STAT application a STAT member speaks with/interviews that teacher the day after the application is submitted. Specialist schedule was discussed. Our PE/Music schedule for 02-03 will have very few changes. The other proposed room changes, including the literacy and Connections areas, were confirmed as well. We will be conducting an online literacy survey developed by Linda Stoner, Teresa Bolks, & Renee Hutchison. The literacy program will be evaluated according to the information provided on the survey & from a plus/delta regarding literacy at the 4/16 after school staff meeting. |

Proposed Budget for FY03 |
Yes | Gateway & IBM computers in the L.C. need to be replaced.
Serious consideration should be given to begin a process to replace the
computers in the lab. The budget will allow for half of the computers to
be replaced this year (02-03) and the remainder the following year. This
year teachers had $900 available to them from the budget. For the
02-03 school year, classroom teachers will have $800 available. Every attempt
was made not to cut this amount too drastically, although, due to declining
enrollment our allocated amount from the district and reallocated textbook
allocation was considerably reduced. Staff members were reminded that they
will have some additional money (up to $500) available to buy math supplemental
materials. The amount allocated for substitutes for release days remains
the same to maintain the yearlong planning schedule. The rest of
the budget allocations stayed fairly consistent with last year. The
group unanimously approved the proposed budget. Also, the group continued
the conversation on creating a multimedia center in the north end of the
Learning Center.
