 * ** Discussion ** || ** **We have a concern that on Thursday when we are supposed to be having book study from 3:00 – 4:00 we should be preparing for Parents and students to come for conferences. Tess was on the calendar committee and she said that when the calendar was created that early dismissal was not designed for cramming meetings in. It was designed and suggested for teachers to have a few moments to prepare for conferences – to do last minute copies, making sure all the report cards and progress reports for students ready, however that is not how admin is viewing that time. **
 * Chandra found some information for planets and rocks/minerals for science instruction, which she disseminated to the group. **
 * Data retreat findings: Discussion on the sticky notes posted on our charts. We’ll all look at the information and answer those together at the next meeting. **
