Administrators brief board on mentorship pilot, state testing and spring events
Summary
Administrators reported a middle-school mentorship pilot placing about 16 students in elementary classrooms, outlined New York State ELA, math and science testing timelines and proctor training, and highlighted music festival selections and post-prom fundraising.
Administrators updated the board on several student programs and upcoming activities, including a mentorship pilot, state testing logistics and spring concerts and trips.
An administrator said about 16 middle-school students have been participating as mentors and ambassadors in elementary classrooms on Wednesday afternoons as part of a pilot program. "We're piloting this program this year," the administrator told trustees, and said cohorts will rotate so more middle-school students can participate through mid-June.
Staff also outlined New York State testing schedules for the end of April and early May and said faculty will be trained as proctors during April meetings. Administrators highlighted three middle-school students who were selected to participate in regional music festivals and noted district vocal and band concerts scheduled in the coming days.
Other updates included post-prom fundraising totals from the prior year (about $3,000 in cash donations, $500 in food and $7,000 in prizes) and that the head bus driver will begin on April 1. Administrators asked the board if they had questions about these activities and said they will continue to provide updates.
