This Library Collection Development Plan for Ferry Pass Middle School outlines the library's mission, vision, and goals to support the educational objectives of the school's curriculum. It includes a comprehensive collection analysis, school and library program initiatives, and strategic focus areas for collection selection and weeding spanning from the 2022-2023 through the 2024-2025 school years, supported by the 2025-2026 budget. The plan aims to foster independent readers, provide access to diverse and updated resources, and create an atmosphere of academic excellence and mutual respect.

The board reviewed and approved the monthly financial statements, which include the balance sheet, revenue, and expenditures categorized by fund groups such as the General Fund, Debt Service Funds, Capital Projects Funds, and Special Revenue Funds. These reports are prepared to maintain transparency regarding the district's financial activity and budget status.

The committee meeting addressed several key topics including updates to Aon projections, a review of the financial statements from December 2017, and updates regarding Marathon Health. The agenda also covered the implementation of employee and spousal wellness bonuses and a discussion regarding payroll withholding changes.

The committee meeting focused on defining the purpose and specific charge of the committee, with particular attention given to the development of the new Pleasant Grove attendance zone and the potential for redistricting in relation to a possible school closure. Members received an orientation on digital GIS resources available for attendance zone studies. Additionally, the committee proceeded with the selection of officers and established a recurring monthly meeting schedule.

The committee reviewed the Superintendent's recommendation to close Woodham Middle School and redistribute its students to Beulah, Bellview, Ferry Pass, and Workman Middle Schools. Discussions included a visual and analytical review of current attendance zones and capacity levels of service. The committee also examined proposed zoning suggestions and explored transportation logistics. Future steps involve creating recommendation worksheets for various solutions to better analyze student data and potential school start time adjustments.
