Monrovia School Link Preview ~ Number 100 ~ December 6, 2004
This Wednesday is the school board's annual organizatioinal meeting, which means the board usually has cookies and drinks and stuff for everybody. Oh yeah, they also select new officers. New president, new VP, etc. It's usually title rotation, which means the VP moves up to president. Since Monina Diaz is the current VP, that should mean she'll rotate into being president, barring heavy opposition.

The meetings (there are two of them this time) are this Wednesday, Dec. 8, at 7 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. The 7 p.m. meeting is where they (hopefully) serve goodies and select new officers, so make sure you get there early. Then the regular meeting will be at 7:30.
At the regular meeting the board will:
- Welcome interim Canyon Early Learning Center Principal Jennifer Janetzke, Monrovia High School Interim Assistant Principal Cheli McReynolds, and Monrovia High School Dean of Students Darvin Jackson.
- Honor the Canyon Oaks High School Prep Team for receiving first place in two out of three categories for their performance at the "World Affairs Challenge" held recently at USC.
- Recognize the District’s Village After-School Program for being a 2004 recipient of the prestigious California School Boards Association’s Golden Bell Award.
- Collect a bunch of loot. I guess it's again the time for giving. The Monrovia Arts Festival Association is giving the district $14,000 for arts programs (that's a lot of paint brushes!); Monrovia Reads is giving $10,000; Board Member Betty Sandford and her husband Jules are giving $2,000 to sponsor a teacher and four students going to Professionals & Student Alliance Day at the UN; Wells Fargo Foundation is giving $1,000; and I gotta mention that Carla McLindsay of Plews & Edelmann is giving 100 trend depth gauges and 100 tire pressure gauges.
And, speaking of the season, here are the holiday festivities:
- Bradoaks: Dec. 9, 7 p.m., Choral Holiday Program; Dec. 15, 7 p.m., Instrumental Holiday Program @ Clifton
- Mayflower: Dec. 16, 7 p.m., Kindergarten Holiday Program
