Minutes: 

Board Member Shirley Brown stated that former Booker High School student Syesha Mercado will be appearing on American Idol.  Mrs. Brown urged everyone to support, watch and vote for Syesha and bring it home to Sarasota.

Board Member Carol Todd addressed what has been written and said regarding the remodeling of the Board Room.  The Board used to meet in the cafeteria of the Transportation Department in Osprey and the Board then moved to the Landings.  At the time it worked for the business of the Board.  The School Board is a three-quarters of a billion dollar organization and the largest employer in the county.  Changes needed to be made in the Board Room because we are an electronic Board (receive, vote and conduct the work of the Board electronically).  The Board Room did not support the electronic agenda and did not support the community having access to the Board.  The community can access the business of the Board on line.  During the last election cycle, the Board heard that the Board was not communicating.  The Board now has the ability to communicate through Technology and a new Board Room.  The Board is now broadcast live so members of the community do not have to wait till later in the week to know what the business of the Board is.  Dr. Todd thanked Superintendent Norris and the rest of the Board for moving forward with the renovations of the Board Room that was needed to keep up with Technology and communicate with the community.  Dr. Todd stated that the Board was being taken to task for undue reason. 

Board Member Shirley Brown stated that when she was running for office for the School Board she complained.  The workshops were hard to find and follow.  Not all of the workshops were broadcast.  The Board now has the opportunity to broadcast all of the workshops.  Mrs. Brown invited the community to come and see the Board Room. 

Board Chair Kathy Kleinlein stated that a School Board cannot talk out of both sides of its mouth.  The School Board cannot tell the principals, students and community that we need the best and most cutting edge technology in all the schools and then sit at a Board table that does not work electronically.  The Board needs to move into the 21st century as a Board and governmental body.  This completes the whole cycle.  There was no rebuild of the walls, ceilings, or floors.  New color was added to the walls.  The Board still has their same chairs.  The Board asked for the bare minimum and staff did an absolutely excellent job in coming in with an extremely reasonable price for what the Board needed.  The Chair thanked Superintendent Norris.

Board Vice-Chair Caroline Zucker stated for the community to tune in to Channel 7 and hear her comments.
