• Process Advocate - Theresa Hilkey reported the following concerns:
• hot water inconsistent in the Art Room; Dennis will speak to Buddy;
• Feedback wanted regarding students sent to the office; Cindy said she is working on a form for teachers; she also suggested that teachers e-mail the administrator for feedback; she also tries to speak to teachers so that she has a better understanding of the problem behavior.
• Keys and students; Staff needs to be very careful about letting students use keys; this should only happen in limited circumstances and never with the outside key/ID card.
• Teachers have wondered if the current library staff would be open to training student aides to copy materials for teachers;
• Concern was expressed about possible student access to sensitive eSis records through the office. Only paid students have access to attendance, and they are restricted from other areas.
