Discussion was held in a meeting with Karissa, Ann and I, in regards to the NDE Expansion Grant for $50,000. We discussed starting a new or expanded Pre-School that would encompass our potential students over 20 each year. The Expanded Pre-School would include 1st timers, and 3 year olds, thus creating a progression into 4 year old pre-school, and then into Kindergarten. There are pros, and cons for each situation. Room, Transportation, 1/2 v- full day, staff, equipment/furniture for start up, parents accommodations if we go 1/2 days, would we fill the spaces, would this bring in more students? More time can be used at our Visions and Goals meeting on January 5th |
