In the area of facilities, projects underway include re-organization and new access to the district office, removal of asbestos tiles and installation of new corridor flooring on the second floor at the middle school, and re-location of classroom space in the various schools. Recruitment and selection of staff members is also occurring and orientation for new staff members is planned.

Mr. Wyse suggested a detailed breakdown of the two propositions that the school district would present for voter consideration. He added that trustees also need to assure that all necessary documentation is available to enable a good presentation to the public.

Mrs. Lyke suggested that the school district anticipate questions the public might ask.
Mr. Havens noted that the ad hoc capital facilities planning committee would assist in the process. He added that his approach when presenting information to the community would include seeking support for all components of proposed capital improvements, including the separate proposition for a community pool.
Mr. Ratcliffe asked if there is a record of past referenda votes during the fall season; Mr. Switzer will provide details.
| PRESENTATION & ADOPTION OF PROPOSED TEXTBOOK ● GRADE 3 SOCIAL STUDIES |
Mr. Havens introduced Mr. Spring, assistant superintendent for instruction, and third grade teachers Mrs. Sandy Karpp (Ontario Elementary School) and Mrs. Cynthia Rutan (Freewill Elementary School) to present information about a proposed new third grade social studies textbook.
Mr. Spring noted that the staff committee spent the better part of the past year in review of textbooks based on specific criteria such as skills, readability, ease of use and local and stated curricula and standards.
Mrs. Karpp and Mrs. Rutan shared and reviewed a summary of the committee’s recommendations. (copy filed in clerk’s agenda file, this meeting). The textbook currently in use is more than twenty (20)-years old. They reviewed the rationale for recommending the Harcourt Brace text, noting how it integrates study skills and literature and makes excellent use of illustrations, timelines, vocabulary and references. It has a suitable readability level for third grade students and includes numerous supplemental materials for students and teachers including tape-recordings. Samples were available for review by trustees.
Mrs. Lyke stated she was pleased with the use of use illustrations and literature items in the text.
Mr. Ratcliffe asked if there was significant cost difference among the three final texts the committee considered. Mrs. Karpp noted that the prices were comparable; their final choice was based on the text that is the user-friendliest and best conveys the material to the children, including many authentic photos and enrichment opportunities.
Mr. Ratcliffe asked if font size of the text would become an issue; Mrs.Rutan the pages were well designed.
Mr. Johnson asked if each child would receive an activity book and how much the textbooks would cost. The teachers stated that each child would purchase an activity book and the proposed text cost is appx, $40 each.
Mr. Havens noted that the content and curricula for third grade social studies is the communities of the world and is the first exposure for children to cultures and countries outside of their local home community.
Mr. Robusto stated that it appears the committee has made a good selection. He asked what happens to the former textbooks. Mr. Havens stated that policy is in place for disposition of surplus textbooks.
(Mr. Wyse left the meeting @ 8:15 p,m.)
Mrs. Lyke offered a MOTION to approve the adoption of the Harcourt Brace “Communities” text for third grade as recommended by the selection committee and the superintendent of schools. 5 Ayes, 0 Nays, 3 Absent (Mr. Griswold, Mr. Triou, Mr. Wyse), 1 Vacancy (Trustee-Elect), Carried.
