    Dear Alicia,

    Thank you so much for your response and for waiting until next Friday to post the agenda item.
    Also, thank you for looping in the General Counsel to weigh in on the MOU. I’m excited to see the
    progress we’ve made this week on moving this forward.

    All my best,
    Pam

    Hi Joann-
    Thank you. I will hold until next Friday.

    I am adding in our General Counsel who drafted this item and who can also provide an
    update on status of our agreement.

    Lynn- can you please follow up on the questions.

    I will have an update on the communications by EOD

    Thank you!

    Good morning,

    We would like to have a public posting of the agenda item deferred until at least next
    Tuesday to give the principal time to communicate to parents and families. Aaron sent
    the attached current draft to the SDP communications office. Any word on whether it
    was approved? If so, he can send it tomorrow and then the announcement will not be a
    surprise to key constituents. I will also send it to Jerry for his input since the PFT is
    listed and ask for his feedback ASAP. I will contact him again and ask for his edits to the
    announcement and agenda item by Friday.

    We also have a few questions about the text—

    The MOA is referenced as a contract in the announcement. Is there a reason this


    is the case?

    Understanding that the MOA will control commitments, we noted that nothing is
    mentioned about SDP commitments (e.g., for staffing). Why is that the case?
    Also, we still have not heard anything from the SDP OGC team about the MOA.
    Could you facilitate a response from their Office ASAP?
    Will this be the only approval needed from the School Board? If not, what are the
    next steps?
    Is it possible to have the agenda item reflect that the contribution (language we’d
    prefer to “grant”) is contingent upon successfully meeting the agreed upon
    milestones in the out years?

    Best,

    Joann

    Good Afternoon All-


    Just following up if you have any questions and when we think that we could tell the
    Board that they can post this item publicly?

    Best,
    Alicia
