At a 6 p.m. study session this Wednesday, the Board will review the California Healthy Kids Survey and its results.

At the regular board meeting, at 7 p.m., the board will...

- Recognize Monrovia High School 03-04 Pre-AP Geography students who received honors at a Model United Nations competition at USC in June 2004.

- Have a report on the California Healthy Kids Survey results.

- Disclose a tentative agreement with the employee groups for 2003-04. These include the Monrovia Teachers Association (MTA), California School Employees Association (CSEA), Monrovia Association of School Administrators (MASA) and Confidential/Classified Management (C/CM).

- Hold a public hearing about reappointing Ms. Jeanne Tyler, CSEA's appointee to the Personnel Commission, "and at the close of the public hearing reappoint Ms. Tyler to the Personnel Commission for a three-year term, beginning December 1, 2004." Hmmm. I'm sure Ms. Tyler is a wonderful person and all, but to announce in advance that the board will reappoint her seems a tad premature. Possibly the agenda writer should leave the door open to the admittedly teensy, tiny possibility that the board will *not* reappoint her. I mean, after all, what's the public hearing for if the matter is already decided?

- Vote on the second reading of proposed new Board Policy 3546.2, Nutrition and Food/Beverage Sales and proposed new administrative regulations on nutrition and food/beverage sales.

- Vote on proclaiming October 11-15, 2004 as National School Lunch Week and October 23-31, 2004 as Red Ribbon Week.
