From Susan Stroup -

SACS CASI Working Group Update:

We had our second productive meeting today to work on our response plan for the SACS-CASI recommendations. Several additional representatives provided valuable input today.

They are:

  • Scott Carlton, Parent of High School Student and Local Business Owner, SMART Leader
  • Rev. George Logan, Pastor New Day Christian Church, Parent, Leader in African-American Community
  • Daniel Gutierez, Leader in Hispanic Community, Pastor, Parent, BCPS Teacher
  • Amy Morgan, BCPS Classified Employee, Parent
  • Nhia Yee Her, Hmong Community Leader, Parent (unable to attend today will attend next meeting)

Also present were Dr. Stellar, Brian Bowman, Michael McNally, Susan Stroup, and Rob Hairfield

We reviewed the templates to be sent regarding #10, #11, and review of ethics policies. Dr. Stellar is drafting a cover letter which he will send to us for feedback. We plan to have an outline to send by Friday and then present the full progress to the Board on Monday, Dec. 7.
We also discussed the tentative details for Review Team visit on Dec. 14-15.

Our next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, December 10.

We are making progress!

The SWAT Oath of Office Ceremony with Public Comments/Open Mic will be an opportunity for authentic stakeholder input. We hope that many will share ideas and thoughts for formulating the vision and goals for BCPS.

Thank you for posting your thoughts here. I appreciate each of you!
