Board brainstorms WASB convention ideas and community outreach plans
Summary
Trustees and meeting participants proposed dashboards, a community programming block, a 'state of the district' public hearing, jobs fair, Storybook Trail and staff appreciation events; the board assigned tasks to draft a one-page summary for the website.
At the Jan. 27 retreat the board held a brainstorming session about the WASB convention and local community engagement. Christie proposed ideas including "Dashboards for academic achievement and referendum spending (Fond du Lac)," a three-hour 'community' block, progress charts for strategic goals, and an annual calendar of school/community events. Aaron suggested an annual public hearing to share a 'state of the district' summary and community-facing events such as a jobs fair and monthly story times.
The board assigned follow-up tasks: develop a one-page summary for posting on the school website (Mitch/Joelle) and for Mitch to share information on the STEP program already in place at Mineral Point. No formal decisions about implementing the proposals were recorded; members agreed to prioritize the ideas at the February regular board meeting.
