V. Head Start - Joyce Thomas

They use Creative Curriculum assessments, Dakota Language assessment, and a Head Start assessment three times a year.

Discussion:
Byron who is from Facility Advocates, is here to present some ideas that we have to do at the school. For Phase one, is what we would like to start this summer. Phase two can be started over Christmas Break and finished next summer.
This was submitted to the paper and we did receive two bids. The first item is to fix the multipurpose room flooring. We also want to put basketball and volleyball lines. This type of flooring is able to have our lunch tables moved across it. The other portion of this project is to fill in the pits in the 5 Classrooms. We want to remove the flooring and get flooring that is similar to the new addition. Back in the Leggo Room, we want to add two temporary walls and to make them into classrooms. They said they could be here in a week and a half to start phase one. The cost of this project will be $209,802 which will be funded out of the Building Fund.
