TAB Minutes:
There were several issues addressed by the TAB committee:
    -Student Behavior-There are concerns about student behavior and the lack of parent responsibility; the Administration will contact other districts and other agencies to see if programs can be implemented to encourage parents to be involved.
     -CPR/First Aid-The Administration will try to make training more convenient
     -Homecoming-Administration will review several possible changes for Homecoming, including candy distribution, supervision, and early release.
      -NCLB/MAP-Teachers are asked to focus on student achievement and reminds them that consequences are severe for schools not achieving.
      -Morning Buses at the HS-Concerns are that the buses releasing students in the morning block the staff from getting to their parking spots.  (Dr. Smith reported later that staff members just need to get here earlier.)
