Final exam structure- for Jr High there will be exams for Math and English, teachers have the choice of exam, or project for Social and Science. Exams will start on June 20, then a break on the 21 for Aboriginal Day, and then 24, 25, and 26th the next week.

The RM is continuing to work on the track as time permits, we would like to give/fundraise as much as possible to give back and help with some of the expense. We should consider having a Grand Opening of the track when it is complete and create a plaque for recognition of the sponsors.

We are able to use the track this year for our local event, it is just a little softer than normal. The local track has been changed to May 27th. Grade 4-6 Tri-meet is in Maidstone. High school District track meet is in Maidstone on May 22, and Regional in Lloydminster on May 29.

Old Business:

By-Laws tabled until further notice.

Sara Goodfellow and Sarah Hein to look at Michael’s for prices and ideas for Skylight esthetics. Priced out plants and options, approximate cost of $300 for a 6-8 foot shelf. Put on hold until Geoff Macfarlan is back.

Amanda Isaac presented ideas for updating/extending the bench. Going to go with black on black, use a stronger quality vinyl, and distress the trim to give some definition. Wade will talk to Monique to find a time during the summer that would work best. Sarah made a motion to go forward with the bench and spend up to $1000. Jill seconded it.

Cleaning out SCC files behind Deb Hein’s desk. Saving 7 years. Sara Goodfellow will look into it.
