Parent Council Meeting Minutes April 3, 2008
Parent Council Meeting -- April 3, 2008
Helen Garrett : We need someone to step in as a replacement for Chairperson. Helen will continue as coordinator and organizer of Parent Education Series.
Principal's Update:
Today we just got the lists for the lottery. We hope to be able to send out notices by the end of the week on spots for out of district students. This is a complicated process since International High School has a fixed number of spots, but we do not know for sure yet what the projected numbers for Classic South will be. Policies on school choice for the district will change in Fall 2009 school year to balance high school districts.
Site Council did approve the Science changes regarding IB and AP courses. The proposed changes have moved through the Curriculum Committee.
Curriculum Guides are available and students will do their own data entry on line. Students can request courses over an 11-day period. This gives students a little bit more control and time to think about their requests. It is not a first-come, first-serve process – students are requesting courses, which will then be prioritized, not guaranteed. Requests will help administrators determine staffing and availability. Schedules will be sent out in August and may be adjusted.
C-Bop – Credit Based on Proficiency – learn more about this at the next Parent Council Meeting.
School is going until Wednesday, June 19th, 2 days of finals at the end of the semester, Monday may be a review day. SEHS graduation will be on the same day as U of O and Lane CC.
May 8th Parent Education Series-- White Privilege: Now that we know, where do we go from here?
