David’s DPS update:

He had a meeting this am with Wayne Eckerling.

On Esol we need to agree to provide at least a volunteer tutor… we cannot just say we will contract with DPS for services.

Waivers are under discussion and David feels that we are making headway on them.

Goals and objectives … measurable objectives. 75% of students will perform at or above grade level on CSAP tests.

DPS is asking us for a 25,000.00 start up fee.

Ruth Ann will join the Colorado League of Charter Schools.

We are incorporated … we will get our paperwork in about 4 weeks.

Corissa & David wrote the by-laws and DPS wants them. The league will look them over first.

Anselm mailed the questionnaire but has not received anything yet.

We will meet in executive session at Anselm’s house to go over the returns and decide what we should do in response.
