She thanked Assistant Superintendent Chris Kelley and her team for <br /> their hard work putting together the 10 days of training. <br /> The high school schedules were published and emailed to families today. Students can <br /> contact their guidance counselors with any questions or concerns. Individual virtual <br /> conversations were held with incoming freshmen, parents and guidance staff that were <br /> very successful. Book distribution begins tomorrow and continues next week. It will <br /> take place in the field house and will be similar to the pickup of belongings at the end of <br /> the 2019-20 school year. <br /> Mrs. Boynton thanked Chuck Strout for his herculean effort putting together the <br /> schedules. <br /> The high school administration continues to work with the custodial staff and technology <br /> to set up the classrooms for a return in a hybrid model. <br /> Mr. Parks asked how many students had reached out to their counselors with scheduling <br /> concerns. Mrs. Boynton said that at the end of the day there were several. Many were <br /> regarding the inability to see the second semester schedule,which had been shut off by <br /> counselors, but this has been resolved. <br /> Mr. Wise read a live question regarding book pickup.Only AP books could be picked up <br /> tomorrow, all others can be picked up next week. <br /> Mrs. Boynton shared that arrangements could be made if students were nervous about <br /> picking the books up in person. <br /> Chair Robinson thanked Principal Boynton. <br /> Director of Student Services <br /> Dr. Stys updated the committee on the extended school year program which went very <br /> well. We had 33 students in person with 25 teachers and paraeducators. We were also <br /> able to bring 6 TSP students in to ease the transition back into school. There were 194 <br /> students receiving services remotely from 31 teachers and paraeducators. <br /> We were able to do many evaluations this summer in the Central Office which was <br /> outfitted with plexiglass shield, hand sanitizer and face shields. <br /> Over the course of the pandemic shutdown a very good collaborative relationship with <br /> the SEPAC has developed. They had their first remote meeting of the year which was <br /> well attended. <br /> Page 1 2 <br />
