Less that 1,080 School Hours. -- Approved, a
policy that Collinsville switched to a few years back that has provided
greater flexibility for bad weather days (for example). Most Oklahoma

School Improvement Status Report from the State Department of Education.
-- Approved, a very favorable report showing
"no deficiencies".

the number of sections was reduced, and some wording updates recommended
by the school's lawyers. Expect to be added online soon.
12) Discussion and Vote to Increase Child Nutrition Cafeteria Prices
for FY2012. -- Tabled. The discussion was to
prepare the board for likely increases in January 2012. Administrators
had met with state CNP officials who advised of several changes coming
including requiring that meal prices at least cover the cost of preparation
of those meals. A few current prices are a few cents below that level
which had just been a recommendation before. New price adjustment recommendations
will be studied and available for the board to act on before the end
of the year.
13) Discussion and Vote to Sell School District 7.5 Acres MOL on North
15th Street Site. -- Approved, getting
a new appraisal of the property (which is too small to build a new school

the sale will likely be done by sealed bids. Appraisals were also done
in 1997 and 2004.
