At the September 14th, 2009 Site Council meeting, Dr. Gary Catalani charged the Kiva K-8 Task Force with obtaining responses to the following 3 questions:
- The Teachers on Site Council would like to know why you as a committee member) want to pursue a K-8 option for Kiva.
- What benefits do you see for Kiva becoming a K-8?
- What challenges do you see facing Kiva becoming a K-8?
This information was compiled from responses that our committee members had provided and was distributed at the October 6, 2009 Site Council meeting. The teachers then took these comments to each grade level for discussion.
At the November 16, 2009 Site Council meeting, discussion regarding these comments took place at which time the teachers shared their views.
Site Council reconvened on February 8, 2010 with the K-8 Task Force Facilitator addressing the grade level concerns and distributing the attached document to Site Council for review. (This information was created from K-8 Task Force Committee submissions.)
Based on this commentary, the Site Council agreed to provide feedback on the proposed K-8 Phase 2 schoolwide survey that was originally intended for distribution last September.
At the next Site Council meeting in March, the survey will either be reviewed and approved by Site Council or denied for submission.
