Minutes from prior 3 meetings were unanimously approved.

Discussion about the handbook and putting it up in January.  An email will be sent with a link to the handbook and sign-off sheet attachment.  There will be some attention drawn to dress code and cell phone use.  A discussion about the language on extended absences occurred.  A brief discussion about Chapter 222 and the changes to suspension rules.  It was noted that Chapter 222 might be a good coffee discussion.

There was a discussion about the practice on tardiness, the importance of developing good attendance habits with younger children (K and 1st grade).  A suggestion that some discussion on PTO website or facebook might be useful.  There was a discussion about tools that might help, including visual reminders, and also reminding that the cafeteria is available after 730. 

The next meeting will start with the School Improvement Plan and a focus on that will occur at the next meeting.

A discussion of the budget requests for Baker in next year’s budget occurred.

A brief discussion about the parent survey occurred. 

A discussion about space for next year occurred.
