Human Resources update - recommend Sonnetta Reynolds for 4th grade teaching position. She is currently subbing at DPA.
Resume and interview score rubric and reference checks will be completed before she begins in the teaching position.
Dr. Bostic went over the Annual Meeting- Academic Performance on the 23-24 CCRPI is used to determine our status.
The tele SLP is no longer working with DCSD and therefore our speech students are not being served. DPA will pursue the cost to hire a part time SLP.
