Monday, November 14, 2005

1.. The meeting was called to order at 6:30 p.m.

2.  Attendance:  Lori Butler, Deb Ramsey, Christine Benne, Rachel Dewey, Lynn Lovato, Tim O’Brien, Dave Bergacker, Richard George, Troy Gedack

3.  Minutes:  The October 10th minutes were approved as read.

4. Principal’s report

 4.1 The bond passed, so Chipeta will receive about $56,000 in discretionary funds. This is a three-year spending plan. Lori is taking suggestions for expenditures. One idea is to carpet all the classrooms. Marker boards are also another suggestion. Some funds are earmarked for lunchroom tables, and some for heating work.

4.2 Chipeta ranks 7th among the 10 best schools in Colorado in our FRL category.  The scores are based on the CSAP scores of the 3rd, 4th and 5th grades. Lori will visit three of the schools to obtain new ideas.

4.3 The marketing of Chipeta has been shelved for the time being.

4.4 Lori handed out the quarterly scores based on e-skills. The staff identified the strongest and weakest areas to find trends and areas that need an action plan. Our math program is still not aligned with the e-skills. Staff is looking especially at computation, and has ordered a drill/skill package.

4.5 SIP is on our website.  

4.6 The team teachers got together and compared scores on Terra Novas and quarterly assessments and discussed ways to teach the curriculum.

5. Sub committee reports

5.1 DAAC will be voting on charter school recommendations. Chipeta will email our vote, which was to deny all three charters.

5.1.2 DAAC wants to do BAAC training.

5.1.3. DAAC states that Holmes has moved to accredited status. Coronado is on the watch list.

5.2 Budget   Lynn suggested that we use an income statement format. We will check on the format.

6.0 New Business

6.1 Tim O’Brien handed out statistics for precinct voting for the last election. The statistics show results by candidate and 3B.

 The meeting adjourned at 7:55 pm

The next meeting is December 12.
