OLD BUSINESS: None
NEW BUSINESS: A discussion was held on what incentives to offer students out on delivery to come in to take FCAT Writes portion of the test.
Currently the EESAC funds are $1,330. It was agreed to set aside $450 for food items for students while taking the FCAT and for other activities. The balance of the funds will be used for Awards Day activities.
Altamese Hamilton (Student EESAC Representative) suggested the Talent Show be placed on hold until after the Senior Dinner. The Student Government Association will handle the arrangements and planning of the Talent Show.
Ms. Gilbert informed those present that the payment deadline for the Senior Dinner is February 25, 2009. The cost is $25.00 per ticket. We need at least 75 paid patrons before the contract is signed. When this occurs she will obtain tickets for the event. The event is to take place on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 from 6:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. at the Grand Salon Reception Hall.
Senior exams will end Tuesday, May 19, 2009.
Mrs. Webb said she will ask Ms. Crawford, the Cafeteria Manager, to serve grits for breakfast during the FCAT testing period.
Next EESAC Meeting will be announced at a later date. Tentatively, may be scheduled for the second Wednesday of the month – perhaps in April.
The meeting was adjourned at 9:06 a.m.
