Monrovia School Link Preview ~ Number 97 ~ October 25, 2004
Another chance to hear about the board's goals and vision and mission stuff. Also, I wonder how easy it would be to gather up a bunch of not-too-old computers for the district. Hmmm...

Study session at 5:30 p.m. in the board room with the representatives of the Monrovia Teachers Association (MTA) and the California School Employees Association (CSEA) regarding the Board of Education Vision and Goals for the District.
Regular meeting starts at 7 p.m.
The board and the Monrovia Chamber of Commerce will recognize Monrovia Unified School District four employees for their outstanding service: Claude Mallory, Head Custodian, Canyon Oaks High School; Ross October, Teacher, Mountain Park School; Debra Phipps, Career Center Clerk, Monrovia High School; Marcela Molina, ROP Teacher, Monrovia High School.
The district will accept (most likely) a bunch of gifts, including four old cars, books, paper, cash, and 20 used computers from the Boys and Girls Club of the Foothills. Computers! Nice gift. That reminds me. My wife and I took some old chemicals or something to one of those toxic waste roundups and I was amazed to see stacks of old computers - monitors and CPUs - most of which didn't look too old. What a waste! If the Boys and Girls Club - or someone else - collects these to distribute them to schools, I'd love to publicize that. Or if that was a one-time deal, maybe there could be a Computer Collection Day at one of the schools. Maybe CompUSA would get involved as a community project. (Maybe they could give discounts on new computers for people who donate their old ones, and maybe they'd transfer old data to any new computers you buy from them.) Okay, I got overly excited there. I don't have the time to organize something like this, but I'd be happy to do a bit of publicity if someone else would like to do it.
The main item on the agenda is a public hearing (that means the board wants to hear from you!) about the board's Education Vision, Goals, and Mission statements, which are still in the development stage, so they can still bend if you bring up some good ideas.
As always, the meeting will be held at the district administrative offices at 325 E. Huntington Drive (On the north side of Huntington drive between Canyon and California.)
