FM #401 School Committee Meeting - 11/24/20 part 1 of 2 (audio)

FM #401 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 401 in the series. 

This session shares one of two segments for the Franklin, MA School Committee meeting held on Tuesday, Nov 24, 2020. 

The meeting was conducted in a hybrid format: some of the School Committee and Central Office personnel were in the Council Chambers, the remainder of the Committee was remote via conference bridge, all to adhere to the ‘social distancing’ requirements of this pandemic period.

I’ve split the two hour meeting into two logical segments:

• First - covers the opening through the Superintendent's evaluation (about 1 hour 18 minutes)
• Second - picks up Discussion Only Items through the remainder of the meeting. (about 42 minutes)

The show notes contain links to the meeting agenda and to my notes. The meeting packet folder will hold the Superintendent’s Report and Portrait of a Graduate presentation copy. Those are usually posted to the folder the day after the meeting. (Given the holiday weekend, they won’t be available until later on Monday, Nov 30, 2020)

Let’s listen to this first segment of the School Committee meeting of Nov 24, 2020. Audio file =  https://www.hipcast.com/podcast/HV52YD4S
