Jeff Walker - Our playground is a shared space with North Ogden city and our school. We need a basic playground. Today’s meeting is to build a wish list of equipment to be placed on the playground and to discuss possible layouts of the equipment. The discussion mentioned the need to facilitate handicap/non handicap. Photos were displayed of various playgrounds.

The wish list included the following equipment: climbing ladders that twist onto a platform, rock steps, monkey bar course/obstacle course, lily pads, balance beams, wood chips (most cost effective), fireman pole, ten spin (merri-go-round), dome climber, communication tube, and ninja type climbing equipment. Mention was made that the equipment has a 5 year replacement/damage guarantee.

The wish list did not include the following: swings (due to extra space that is required for this equipment), individual spinners (students often get sick spinning on them). Ropes course that is high (12 feet) due to concerns with children falling and getting hurt.

We will reconvene again after Jeff goes to vendors with the wish list to view possible plans for a future playground.

The playground will be paid for from N. Ogden City. They will go to the city council to request $80K for this playground.

The budget was reviewed from last time. (see attachment of Allocation and Used monies) We have a state reading grant to cover some of the reading salaries. We reviewed a desire to aim for an increase in reading and math scores/goals for next year.There was an inquiry why the library books monies have not been used. Monies have been used for mainly for books, parties. Mr. Nestoryak mentioned that he will talk with Mrs. Shaw our school librarian and report at our next meeting.

All the monies in the budget will be used by the end of the year.

Last time we discussed $59, 500 spending for next year. (low estimate) Dibels overall proficient will be 4% growth. We also have money for our pe specialist, computer aides.

An inquiry was asked about computer safety at school when students use internet sites and if large companies were using our data. Mr Nestoryak answered that all of our programs used at school have been approved by the district.

Next meeting we want to finalize our budget. Phil motioned to adjourn. Mike Hipwell 2nd it.
