BOARD WORK SESSION OF THE GILBERT COMMUNITY SCHOOL BOARD District Office Conference Room February 26, 2019
At 5:00 p.m. a board work session for the purpose of discussing the 2018-19 District Priorities and Annual Goals of the Gilbert Community School Board of Directors was called to order by President Brian Anderson with the following members answering roll call: Tyler Holck, Kim Mosiman, John Nelson and Deb Ordal. Administration present: Supt. Lindsey Beecher. Guests present: Jim Verlengia, Heartland AEA. Motion by Holck, second by Nelson to approve the agenda. Motion carried unanimously. The board worked together with Jim Verlengia to develop/discuss the common themes in the answers to four questions asked of the board before the meeting as part of the district priorities/annual goals process and are the same questions asked of the other focus groups. The four questions were: 1) What do you see to be the unique strengths of the Gilbert CSD? 2) What do you perceive to be potential areas of growth or improvement for the Gilbert CSD? 3) Where would you like to see the Gilbert CSD focus its efforts over the next 3-5 years; and 4) What does a Gilbert CSD graduate need to know and be able to do? The board worked together in small groups to determine the common themes in each of the responses for each of the four questions and reported out the results of their findings to Secretary Hopkins to document. Jim Verlengia will combine the findings of the board with the rest of the gathered data from the other focus groups. All of the gathered data from all of the focus groups will be submitted to the board for review and another work session will be scheduled in March to further analyze all of the data to establish priorities of the board. Motion by Holck, second by Mosiman to adjourn the work session. Motion carried unanimously. Meeting adjourned at 6:47 p.m.
