Summary
Board members were briefed that a corrective action plan submitted to the state has been closed, staff were reminded of quarterly threat assessment reports, retreat dates and site visits were discussed, and county Teacher of the Year winners and a CHS band concert date were announced.
The Mid County Board of Education received several administrative updates and announcements during its meeting.
Superintendent-level staff noted that a corrective action plan previously submitted to the Department of Education has been closed following the monitoring period. The superintendent also reminded the board that designated staff members must file quarterly threat assessment reports with the state as required; the report-filing responsibility was identified by job title in the packet.
The board discussed planning for its retreat, with several February and March dates proposed and a preference expressed for a Thursday. Staff described plans for a review of elementary school proposals; representatives from architectural/consulting firms (identified in the packet) will present more concrete blueprints and cost breakdowns at the retreat. A brief demonstration of a new camera system by a staff member identified as "Mister Baylor" is scheduled, and "Marty Spears" and a representative from a Tennessee loan program were listed as presenters to break down potential costs for a new school.
In other announcements, the superintendent announced the CHS band Christmas concert scheduled for Dec. 11 at 7 p.m. The board also publicly recognized county Teacher of the Year winners: Glenda Hicks (Camden Elementary), Erica Johnson, Brianna Taylor, Lori Eaton, Sarah Pannuzzi and Macy Furr.
Superintendent and staff said they will confirm the retreat date by email and bring design proposals and camera demonstrations to the retreat for further board review.
