ON THE AGENDA
The following items will be discussed at Thursday's school board meeting:
SECURITY CAMERA
INSTALLATION
The board will consider installing security camera systems at Burbank and Burroughs high schools, at an estimated cost of $132,092 for both schools.
This has been on high school principals' lists of things to do for a while, and Supt. Greg Bowman brought the issue to the board in November.
Burbank High School even had 10 cameras, but due to improper wiring, the cameras were not installed and are now outdated.
Burroughs is working to raise money for those cameras while Burbank feels the responsibility to provide cameras falls to the district.
WHAT TO EXPECT
This has been a long-time coming, but has hit roadblocks of some sort each time.
CHILD DEVELOPMENT
PROGRAMS
The board will consider adopting a resolution to enter into a transaction with the California Department of Education for funding of child development programs, including extended day care, general child care at Emerson, Washington and Bret Harte elementary schools and state preschool at Edison and Bret Harte elementary schools.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The board will likely approve the resolution.
SPECIAL EDUCATION
SERVICES
The board will consider approving an agreement between the district and educational therapist Marcy Dann, to provide training for nonverbal learning disabilities to special education students through June 30, 2007, at the rate of $125 an hour.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The board will likely approve the agreement.
