On January 14th, L.C. Schmitt Elementary hosted our BCSC School Board Meeting. If you were not able to attend in person, it is our hope, that through the highlight video above, you will be more informed about the decisions made that impact our students, staff, and buildings.
Here are some of the meeting highlights:
1. Principal Kaity Day and two students welcomed us to the School Board Meeting by affirming our BCSC Mission and Vision and High Expectation Objectives as well as providing information about Schmitt Elementary.
2. Our BCSC School Board Attorney Chris Monroe administered the oath of office to four School Board Members, including new member Dr. Julie Bilz.
3. Dr. Jill Shedd was selected as the 2019 BCSC School Board President.
4. BCSC School Board Members were approved to various community boards, councils, and committees. (Full list can be seen on BCSC website.)
5. Bartholomew Consolidated School Foundation (BCSF) was recognized for their successful fundraising efforts to benefit our teachers and students in 2018. Lightning grants were also introduced as a future way to provide funds for teachers outside of the regular grant cycle. For more information, visit BCSF's website or contact Executive Director, Suzi Bruin.
6. Nick Williams, Director of Technology, provided information on Wi-Fi Updates for Secondary Schools.
7. Chad Phillips, Assistant Superintendent for Business Services, provided information on extra-curricular funds, 2019 Tax Anticipation Warrants, and Distressed Unit Appeal Board (DUAB) fiscal indicators.
