Arrangement of tours for BOE members of Nashua School District buildings
Ms. Raymond
asked for this. I asked Dr, Mosley in the fall and 2 years ago if I could have tours of all the buildings. And I asked
if we could have a schedule for the new members have tours of all the buildings, at a time that was convenient for
the schools.
Dr. Mosley
Id be happy to do so. T’ll propose a schedule for people, and they can tell Tara about times that are good for them.
Tl set that up in the next week or two with the Building Principals.. I think it’s a great opportunity, and I'd suggest
you bring your walking shoes. J think that’s a nice opportunity for you to get out and meet faculty and
administration.
Ms. Ziehm
Several years ago we would do a meeting at a different school each time. J just wonder if Administration has any
feelings on that. It was just wonderful.
Dr. Mosley
It’s a very flexible schedule designed for Board members. We'll set up a 1 to 4 week schedule and you can drop by
the schools during those times. You might spend 30 minutes at the high school, and 20 minutes at the middle
school... I really don’t know. We just want to make it convenient for you. The other piece of this is that we do send
out invitations for events district-wide. So if you can’t make it to the schools now, you'll also have an opportunity
to go to events at the schools as well.
Ms, Ziehm
I was asking you, and maybe it’s too cumbersome, but we had our Board meetings at a different school each month.
And they would have an opportunity to give some kind of an overview on anything they wanted to that they felt was
good Jearning for the Board.
Dr. Mosley
I would say that because of the recording of the meetings, the ledger, etc. that would be cumbersome and a
challenge. Because everything is already set up here. I'd have to think about that.
Ms, Raymond
And ] think it would be important to ask Mr. Johnson how nvwch that would entail for him. And also check on the
recording, because we have the recording device here. There is one at Central office, but at other schools. It was
very difficult when we had a meeting at Main Dunstable recently. But we can ask Mr. Johnson.
Ms. Ziehm
Ive already done it, so if it’s too cumbersome that’s fine. I can appreciate what you're saying. I can see there’s a
lot of updated equipment since I was here before.
Ms, Raymond :
Did anyone else have any comments or questions about Dr. Mosicy setting up tours with the Building Principals?
No? Okay.
