Board asks staff to add virtual academy and CTE program updates to future agenda
Summary
Board members requested informational presentations on the virtual academy (student breakdown by grade and full-time vs part-time participation) and on career and technical education (CTE) programs (certificates, capstones, and plans), to be scheduled at a future meeting.
The chair asked staff to add two informational items to a future agenda: (1) a presentation on the virtual academy, including participation breakdown by grade and how many students are part-time versus full-time; and (2) an overview of current career and technical education (CTE) programs, which programs include certificates or capstone experiences, and what the district is planning next for CTE expansion across schools.
Board member George also raised a separate question about whether the district is considering grading-scale changes reported in outside news; staff said they are not considering a district-wide shift and noted Meadowlark is exploring standards-based report cards and will survey staff before next steps.
