Goals for the year (continued from last year) – TECH GOAL

· Technology as a whole in our school is not where it should be

· Mr. Raymond – doubled bandwidth over the summer

· Teacher/school goal was updated to help students prepare themselves for the 21^st century

· Some ideas to help ease technology problems

o Common drive to access at home and at school

o Enforce Google docs – easy to access, easy to use

· Define what is 21^st century skills… think about it for next meeting…

o Mrs. Heaton has some ideas

o Iste.com

· We need to write out what we want as an ultimate technology goal BY October 3^rd meeting!

· Once we define what we want, then we will try to create a survey to parents/teachers/students about the technology at HBHS

· To get there:

o Class of 2014 – Ask Mrs. Plummer about good survey questions

o Class of 2015 – Contact kids who have either graduated college/are in college and in the work force what technology tools did they wish they had before college/work? Business skills, personal skills?

· Side notes: possibly a web etiquette class during cavblock? Class on how to properly communicate through work/college admissions, public speaking course, sexual harassment class during cavblock?

Other goal for this year: Everyone needs to work on being more prepared for meetings; that means following through with student council “homework”. There is no consequence yet if you don’t come prepared, but YOU chose to be here so your responsibility should show that! (:

Old Home Day: All classes got there paperwork in = all set!

Homecoming:

· Homecoming weekend is the same weekend as OHD; Friday Sept. 20, Saturday Sept. 21

· Homecoming dance will NOT be Saturday the 21^st. Instead it will be Friday October 4^th!

· Possibly a homecoming assembly – will talk about at presidents meeting

· Saturday the 21^st – Idea of a bonfire on school grounds and then people can watch OHD fireworks at the bonfire event

· Maybe make a big fire picture in school windows to count down and get everyone excited for the fire event

· Seniors will talk to Rupp about this idea of a fire

Applefest:

· October 5^th!

· Each class will pick a theme for their station

· Maybe all the money can go towards a new speaker system in the gym?
