I am seeking approval of this Agreement for the purpose of providing funds to the Preschool on behalf of the parents receiving Preschool Tuition Scholarships
I am seeking approval to revise the deadline to request the Early Leave Incentive from March 1st, 2015 to January 5th, 2015. The change is due to the number of potential vacancies, and the possibility that some of those vacancies will qualify as “hard to fill” positions.
CLOSED SESSION: Pursuant to 21.5(1)(j) the Board will enter into closed session to discuss the purchase or sale of particular real estate only where premature disclosure could be expected to increase the price the governmental body would have to pay for that property or reduce the price the government body would receive for that property.
