Budget Briefing
The state-mandated reductions will be addressed by Chris Hamilton. Also of note is our increase in enrollment (17.5%) for Term I and approximately 15% for Term II.
Computer Conversion
We have talked for many months about our leaving the computer consortium and searching for a product that would meet our needs as we attempt to keep our technological edge. Carol Hawkins will address the recommendation that will be made by the committee that has been studying this. This is preliminary information as we will not be asking the Board to make a decision until next month.
