Board committee reviews student trips, seeks partnership with Saint Joseph's University for student teachers
Summary
At the Oct. 14 instruction and technology committee meeting, members reviewed three student trip requests (including two by the National Honor Society), discussed a proposed student-teaching partnership with Saint Joseph's University, and noted two science teachers seeking professional development; formal approvals were to follow solicitor review.
Miss Adebale, a school board member, told the instruction and technology committee on Oct. 14 that the agenda included three student-trip requests and personnel development items. Two trips were requested by the National Honor Society and will be chaperoned by Mr. Kilo, the presenter said; the committee noted a second NHS-related trip also "includes our bridal UN students as well," language that appeared in the transcript and is not further defined in committee remarks.
A separate request came from the boys' and girls' cross-country teams seeking permission for an event trip, the committee said. Miss Adebale also described a proposed partnership with St. Joe's University to host student teachers; that agreement is under review by the district solicitor. "We would like to do something very similar with Saint Joe's, and that contract is currently under review by our solicitor," she said.
Finally, two science teachers requested professional-development funding. The committee recorded these items for consideration; no formal committee votes were recorded, and the proposed partnership and any trips will be placed on the full board agenda for action.
