Summary

Trustees reviewed the strategic plan and asked staff to deliver clearer, quarterly program-evaluation reports instead of ad-hoc summaries so the board can better track completion and outcomes.

Board members reviewed the strategic plan action items and identified several Q2 tasks marked complete while others need more time or should be shifted to later quarters. Members asked staff to add clearer indicators of progress (action steps completed, next steps) and suggested a quarterly reporting cadence for program evaluations rather than monthly narrative-only updates.

A trustee suggested using a shared document for updates rather than emailed reports to make the action plan easier to read and to show what has been completed. The board agreed quarterly program-evaluation reporting; Maria said a user-friendly action-plan format should be available before January’s planning cycle.
