0 <br />READING SCHOOL COMMITTEE <br />Reading, Massachusetts <br />REGULAR SESSION March 3, 1998 <br />CALL TO ORDER <br />Chair Twomey called the meeting to order at 7:05 p.m. at the <br />Barrows School. Present were School Committee members Cavicchi, <br />D'Antona, Stohlman, Twomey and Williams. Also present were <br />Superintendent Harutunian and Associate Superintendent Richards. <br />SCHOOL SIZE AND ENROLLMENT PRESENTATION <br />Ms. Callan thanked the members of the School Size and Enrollment <br />Committee and gave a presentation on the School Size and <br />Enrollment Committee's recommendations to the School Committee <br />for solving the elementary school enrollment problem. <br />Ms. Callan described the three solutions recommended by the <br />School Size and Enrollment Committee including the pros and cons <br />of each solution: <br />1. New elementary school and addition /renovation to Barrows. <br />2. New elementary school only. <br />3. Convert Coolidge to K -5 or 3 -5 elementary school and build <br />new middle school. <br />Chair Twomey then opened the discussion up to questions from the <br />audience. <br />Mr. Stohlman told the group that he had met with _Beth Klepeis and <br />that there is good news and bad news. The good news is that the <br />$3,000,000 in the capital plan for Killam School was assumed not <br />to be SBAB reimbursable, however, it appears that it may be <br />reimbursable which will increase the potential pool of money for <br />capital projects. The bad news is that the capital plan is in <br />draft form and is based on the following two assumptions. First, <br />the town will sell the landfill for $4,000,000 and second that <br />there are no extraordinary increases in the operating budgets. <br />Have not factored in the costs for materials and teachers to <br />handle the increased enrollment. <br />
