Diversity Conference
Michelle Barnett and Norma Vasquez presented an overview of the diversity conference that they attended with Alison Travis, Julie Carter and Heidi Espinosa. This was put on by Westchester BOCES. There were 6 different workshops they could choose from to attend. They would like to share what they learned about being accepting of other people regardless of their culture, religion, race, etc. They plan to share what they learned with the faculty first and then have the faculty meet with small groups of students in homerooms.
School to Watch
It was decided that the Site Base Team will focus on one of the four major criteria at a time rather than the entire packet with Social Equity being the first. All the Site Base Team members will continue to discuss the self-study and rating packet the faculty and the community . Mr. Malkischer will try to get a blog set up for the Site Base Team and open it to the community at some point.
The next meeting is December 17th, 2008 at 2:30pm
