Return to Minutes Index

Present: Dennis, Karla, Cindy, Julie, Audrey, Theresa, Hareem, Lynne

1.Calendar

• February and March calendars were reviewed and approved with additions Julie and Karla went over prior to the meeting.

2.Minutes from last week were reviewed

3.Leadership

• Mr Lancer requested a basketball game on Thursday, February 24th. There is basketball practice that evening. They will check to find another date.
• French club would like to do a Bingo or card game night in the cafeteria as a fundraiser. French club needs to check and see if they need a permit to do so. Cash prizes vs prize giveaways?
• Student Lounge
  Leadership wants to put a hand mural on the walls, possibly next week after school. It was decided that they could use a ladder (supervised) and put it above the lockers. This would avoid graffiti and marking up.

4.Old Business

• Calendars were discussed.
• Parking
  Todd is issuing more tickets. Senior girls are complaining there are Sophomores parking illegally on campus. Yellow zone in front of building needs special attention.

5.New Business

• Science Wing
  Dennis met with the architects and project manager last week. The building plans were reviewed. The project is anticipated starting in April/May of this year and will be done by next year Winter Break. We will need to think about re-routing fire routes for the Spring for those who use the Student Lounge doors for a fire exit, as those doors will not be able to be used.
• Restrooms
  All of our restrooms will be remodeled this summer. Facilities presented options and they were reviewed. H was chosen. See Dennis if you would like to see the choices.
• Tech/Computer Labs Issues
  New rules were discussed and agreed upon.
  Computer games (ie Halo) are not allowed in the labs, and the request for a Computer Gaming Club was denied due to the inability to “babysit” the rating of the games due to their violent/abusive nature, whether or not we should be using school property/facilities to condone these programs, and there is no staff member willing to take on the challenge.

6.Open

• Pop Culture is requesting to take a field trip to see “Drawer Boy” at the Hult Center on February 9th. We approve.
