Leesa Loggains, Professional Development Chair, provided an evaluative report on Professional Development, Missouri School Improvement Area TL-2, G-8(2). Professional learning drives and supports instructional practices in the District and leads to improved student learning. The three-year retention rate for the 2020-2021 school year was at 69 percent, while one-year retention rates for the year were 78 percent.
Mr. Jones reported he had no update for the Carthage R-9 Foundation.
Dr. Baker presented the preliminary 2022-2023 budget, including a $1,000 raise to the teacher’s base salary, a $1.25 per hour raise to support staff salary schedules, and a $1,500 annual increase for bus drivers. However, Dr. Baker requested the Board consider amending the budget in July to include an additional $500 to the teacher’s base salary.
Mr. Jared Patrick, High School Assistant Principal, presented a revised finals exemption policy developed by high school staff.
