Agenda Items:
- Welcome
Members introduced themselves to Kristine Millerberg, our new school board representative, and she shared her experience. Mrs. Millerberg also shared the need for the Midvale community to raise a strong voice to advocate for students in Midvale, something that her husband Mont and she herself have advocated for for many years.
Carolee presented Mrs. Millerberg with a Lifetime Mustang Award plaque in honor of her late husband Mont Millerberg.
- Discussion and vote on approval of the March 18th 2024 meeting minutes
Jason motioned to approve the March minutes; seconded by Alyssa. Motion passed unanimously and was carried.
- Land Trust / TSSP updates and review
The LandTrust dollars are down to about $11,000 which can be carried over to next year. Carolee is still spending down the TSSP dollars which should be down to the 10% that is allowed for carryover.
- School Accountability Report
Carolee reported that we did the Great Utah Shakeout emergency drill in April which went well. We have RISE testing going on right now; 5th and 4th graders have started and 3rd grade will also do some RISE testing. Next Monday and Tuesday we will be doing Acadience testing.
