Board meetings and strategic plans from Grand Forks Special Education Unit
The meeting addressed the declaration of the 2024-2025 school board membership, the election of the school board president and vice president, and the resignation of a board member. A process for selecting a replacement board member was outlined, involving advertising the vacancy and setting an application deadline. An update was provided on the design grant for a prospective new Twining school, including discussion of the design process and building plans. The school board's regular meeting schedule for 2024-2025 was approved, along with the designation of the official newspaper. A request for proposal response for building commissioning services was rejected, and the RFP was scheduled to be readvertised.
The committee discussed concerns regarding the use of a 360 evaluation, whether it aligns with existing board policy, and its potential use as a job performance tool versus a feedback tool. Options were explored, including amending the policy, using it as feedback for leadership growth, or forgoing the 360 evaluation altogether. The committee rescinded its previous action to use the NDLEAD evaluation tool and defined the 360 evaluation as a feedback tool administered by a leadership coach. Further input on its administration will be collected from board leadership.
The Finance Committee discussed a draft school facilities assessment tool to guide the board in establishing a reserve minimum balance for the building fund and creating operational maintenance plans. The tool suggests a reserve balance of $1.4M, subject to change as maintenance is completed. The committee plans to validate the tool with peers and refine it for use the following year.
