8) Discussion on Possible Conversion to Trimester at Secondary Level.
-- The board listened to a presentation by CHS
Principal Cory Slagle on the plans and rational for a switch to trimesters
and will decide at the March board meeting if they will approve the
plan. Letters have been sent to parents and students and a meeting was
attended by 25-30 parents. Reaction from students, teachers and parents
has been positive. The new CHS trimesters would be implemented to help
meet state requirements for a college prep path (to match the OLAP path)
and a standard path. Instead of the current 6 classes per day and two
semesters per school year, the new system would have 5 longer classes
per day with three credit separations per year in the same number of
days (Aug-Nov, Nov-Feb, and Feb-May). Similar trimester systems are
currently in use by Oologah, Bixby, Tahlequah, Catoosa, Sperry, Catoosa
and Miami. Slagle indicated the system would provide greater flexibility
for students needing remedial help as well as students looking for greater
challenges.
9) Declare Surplus
and No Longer Needed by the District, Softball and Baseball Scoreboards.
-- I missed this discussion and vote as I left

meeting ... but heard enough to know both scoreboards have been
replaced with the baseball board installed and wiring in progress. --
