Tentative Board Agenda Items for December

Board members received this list of tentative Agenda items for December back in September:

Accountability Determinations (interested in this item, given the Board's support of Margaret McKenna's amendment at the November meeting)
Competency Determination (now that there's a new hybrid test in the works)
Submit Budget to Secretary of Education (probably other budgetary/fiscal announcements, including an update to the Board about the Foundation Budget Review Commission's final report)
Safe & Supportive Schools report

December's Board meeting is planned for Tuesday, 12/15. Board members receive the Agenda and back-up for meeting items about 10 days before.
