Background:
|
At its November 2017 committee meeting, the Board referred Resolution 1718R-013 by Director Voss to the PACE committee.
The resolution directs the Administration to develop a procedure for scheduling MPS high school graduation ceremonies on days and at times that are conducive to the highest participation by all members of the school community. The resolution indicates that the new procedure be implemented during the 2017-18 school year.
While the Administration is agreeable in terms of developing a new procedure consistent with the resolution, the schedule and corresonding contracts with venues for the 2017-18 graduations have already been finalized. Thus, the Administration is recommending adoption of the resolution, amended to reflect implementation for the 2018-19 school year.
