Welcome by Rebecca.  Special welcome to new member Alayna Weston.

Trustland Videos need to be viewed by council members and can be watched at www.schoollandtrust.org

New Legislation includes school safety issues.  Trust land funds up to $7000 can now be used for safety issues.  Also, PCE will be using some of the fundraiser money to purchase school cameras that can monitor every angle in the school.

Mrs. Neilson reviewed the compliance checklist.  Rules of order and updated member lists are on the school’s website.  We also changed future council dates to Mondays from Thursdays.

The Reading goal for the Trustland plan will be 60% will make typical progress (or above typical progress).  The Reading goal will include funds for two reading aides.  TSSA will also help provide funds for 2 other aides so we have four total.  Also, money in Reading will continue to be used for training and chrome books.  Our budget includes approximately $20,500 for chrome books but it is well worth it.  The Math goal will be 17 points higher than the district average.     

Mrs. Neilson also reviewed school business.  The school district has hired an equity person.  She has informed Mrs. Neilson that the previous costumes used on the 1st Thanksgiving school celebration may no longer be appropriate.  Also, keyless entry for teachers will be coming for doors at each end of the school building.   

The next meeting is scheduled for November 11, 2019 @ 11:00 am.

Meeting adjourned at 11:40 am.
