March 26, 2012 <br />3. Director of Student Services <br />Ms. Elmer reminded everyone about the last session of the Parent Workshop series. <br />4. Superintendent <br />Superintendent Doherty shared that the Jazz Band recently won a gold medal and once again <br />have earned the honor of playing at the Hatch Shell on Labor Day. <br />He also updated the Committee on the High School Principal search. <br />5. Assistant Superintendent <br />Mrs. deGaravilla updated the School Committee on the summer school program. The <br />program is in the process of being redesigned and will offer skills maintenance opportunities <br />at all levels. <br />6. Director of Finance and Operations <br />Ms. DeLai made the Committee aware of transfer of funds by the Town within the FYI <br />Capital Plan. <br />B. Continued Business <br />Continued Discussion of Policy JICH: Drug and Alcohol Use by Students with JICH — R: <br />Revised Chemical Health Guidelines for Athletics and Extra - Curricular Activities <br />Superintendent Doherty provided additional information on the requested revisions of the <br />Chemical Health policy. <br />Mr. Spadafora thanked him for producing a comparison chart and asked Chief Cormier if this <br />policy addresses offenses of varying degrees of severity. <br />Chief Cormier believes that there is flexibility built into the handbook to address this concern. <br />Mrs. Janowksi asked if this policy will be enough of a deterrent for this behavior. Ms. <br />McNamara feels the policy and guidelines are effective and it is important that all stakeholders <br />are vested in the policy and consequences. <br />Mr. Croft was concerned that offenders would be able to circumvent the punishment and would <br />like to ensure the policy is applied consistently. <br />Dr. Doherty indicated the high school administration has been consistent in the application of the <br />consequences with the policies they have been given. <br />There was further discussion regarding offenses that may occur during the summer. Chief <br />Cormier and SRO Santasky review the information on a weekly basis and are in communication <br />with the high school administration 12 months a year. They are also working collaboratively <br />with surrounding communities. <br />
