Items/ Presentation
Update
from the District
A. T.
Phillips gave a report from his 11/13/17 conversation with L. Knipple of the
District. He introduced himself as the
new contact to the District and found out the contact info as to who is MMS's
scheduler (M. Dombrow). K. Tadeusiak is
the MMS contact for the waitlist. L. Knipple is the financial rep for the
District and discussed invoices, payment options and mentioned that any account
sent to collections disqualifies student from riding the bus the following
year.
B. The committee and the public discussed
many edits to the Draft Business Rules/Bylaws Addendum.
C. Edits shall be incorporated, the
Addendum (with edits) placed on the webpage and will be brought back at the
next meeting for adoption.
D. Discussions were held over treatment of
siblings in a family and whether all would be given a seat if only one is drawn
in the lottery.
1. The Committee felt it appropriate
to assign a seat to all children in a multi-child family as long as the
children assigned will be attending MMS.
E. Additional discussion on whether a family with
an incoming 6th grader should retain the seat that had been previously assigned
to their leaving 8th grader.
1. The Committee felt it appropriate
to return the leaving 8th grader's seat to the lottery and not retain it for
the incoming 6th grader in the same family.
The family would be treated as all incoming 6th grade families in the
lottery.
F. A discussion on how long meeting
minutes shall be kept was held
1. The Committee felt six years was
appropriate.
