READING PUBLIC SCHOOLS <br />Reading, Massachusetts <br />SCHOOL COMMITTEE MINUTES <br />REGULAR SESSION MINUTES SEPTEMBER 8, 1997 <br />CALL TO ORDER <br />Chair Twomey called the meeting to order at 7:35 p.m. All school <br />committee members were present. Also present were Superintendent <br />Dr. Harry K. Harutunian and'Associate Superintendent Dennis <br />Richards. <br />INTRODUCTION OF NEW TEACHERS AND ADMINISTRATORS <br />Dr. Harutunian advised the committee that at this time, each <br />school's principal would introduce new staff from their school <br />At 8:02 Chair Twomey advised that the committee would take a <br />short break. <br />At 8:10 Chair Twomey called the meeting back to order. <br />CITIZEN'S INPUT <br />A concerned parent spoke about the Chicago Math Program survey <br />results. He advised the committee that he had met with Dr. <br />Harutunian and that their request to let surveys be seen was <br />denied. A Freedom of Information Act was filed with the State <br />and the surveys have been released with out the teachers' names <br />on the surveys. The concerned parent believes that the <br />Superintendent's report on the survey results does not convey the <br />true feelings of the teachers. The parent also asked that the <br />school committee review the surveys. Also, he requested that <br />when the Stanford 9 Test is given to the 5th graders that the <br />results be broken down to include the total number of students <br />and the number of students that were being tutored in math. <br />Mike Hickey, President of the Reading Teachers' Association, read <br />a statement that the Reading Teachers' Association was completely <br />against the survey results being released with the teachers' <br />names on them. <br />
