A. Public Input (I) <br /> Chair Caruso called for public input. <br /> There was no public input. <br /> B. Reports <br /> Students <br /> Student Representative Nastri reported that the Wrestling Team had an impressive <br /> win and the planning for Mr. RMHS has begun. The event will be held in March. <br /> Sub-Committee <br /> Dr. Snow Dockser attended the recent T.R.R.F.C.C. assembly at Killam and <br /> presented information on the upcoming Martin Luther King celebration that will <br /> be held on January 19tH <br /> C. Continued Business <br /> Continued Discussion on Elementary Space Solutions <br /> Dr. Doherty updated the School Committee on the kindergarten and space needs <br /> for the 2015-16 school year. He reviewed the proposed timeline which will <br /> hopefully end in a Special Town Meeting on February 231d <br /> Ms.Nastri left the meeting at 7:10 p.m. <br /> Superintendent Doherty continued by saying that the School Committee will be <br /> presenting the details of the modular classroom option to the Finance Committee <br /> on January 14th and again at the Financial Forum on January 21St. The Board of <br /> Selectmen will vote to authorize a Special Town Meeting at that time. <br /> The Superintendent also said he was putting together the lottery guidelines in the <br /> event that the funding is not approved. The tentative date for the lottery will be <br /> on February 24th. Mrs. Borawski asked if all buildings will need to have a lottery. <br /> Dr. Doherty said at this time Killam, Eaton and Barrows are the three buildings <br /> with high enrollment numbers. <br /> The Superintendent reviewed the current registration numbers and cautioned the <br /> Committee that these numbers will increase between now and the beginning of <br /> the school year. He went on to review the classroom needs for the next five years <br /> based on current enrollment numbers and historical trends. He reviewed the <br /> solution to the space issues if 4, 5 or 6 modular classrooms were used. Six <br /> classrooms would provide adequate space for all kindergarten programs,the <br /> Grade 1 classes at Joshua Eaton, and move music classes at Joshua Eaton and <br /> Killam from the stage to a classroom. <br /> If the modular classrooms are not approved and we have to hold a lottery, <br /> approximately 80 families will not have access to full day kindergarten.
