Tim reported that the final slate of candidates up for election at the Fall Corporation meeting in September were: Mark Hartley, Rick Wharton, Craig Dorry, Robert Alford
The Board agreed to use the “motor-voter” process that has been successfully followed in previous years to manage the CCS Board Elections . The Fall Corporation meeting will occur on September 14
Mark provided a detailed analysis of the results of the 2010 CCS Board Self-Evaluation. The Board agreed to review the results and discuss at a future session.
There was general agreement that although the school’s financial posture was relatively strong, it would not be appropriate at this time to consider adding more debt load in order to build another gym-like facility on the existing CCS grounds.
Rick will publish interview sheets and a schedule of parents and staff who have exited CCS this past year for 2-person teams from the CCS Board to interview. The Board agreed to attempt to complete the interviews prior to the September Board meeting.
Thanks to Craig Dorry, Chris Wertz, and Robert Alford for attending.
