Minutes from 11/15/99 meeting approved.

Budget Committee: Met a few weeks ago because final numbers were in for personnel. We are operating without a deficit. Need answer to what fiscal year summer school and K orientation are budgeted from. Money is in budget for Spanish teacher. Discussed enrollment for next year and need for district to pass referendum to override revenue caps. When planning for next year, we will need to create two budgets one assuming referendum is passed and one assuming it is not need to share this information with families. Next meeting is January 4 at 5:30 (meet in NCS office).

Personnel: There were no applicants for the Spanish position. We need to let parents know what is happening with this. We discussed various ways for finding candidates.

Charter Renewal: This committee has been disbanded because the work is done!

Fundraising: Committee will meet in January, no date given. The Holiday Bazaar raised $531.70. Staff will discuss how to use this money school-wide. We had one checked returned Insufficient Funds, but have since received payment from that order.

Grant Writing: Staff is identifying priorities for grant fund needs. There is a parent willing to search for potential grants based on this list.

Curriculum: There was a discussion about portfolios and assessment. We will gather information about how other sites report to parents.

Director's Report: Michelle received a letter from the Natatorium staff requesting that sites get involved in raising money for a defibrillator. This would be a good community service project for the school.
