3.0 ACTION DISCUSSION
3.1 Approve Lottery Policy: Chris Curry suggested that #6, be changed to “If there is not space available in the recommended class, the student will be placed on the recommended class waiting list. The student number assigned by the lottery will be the criteria for offering placement/enrollment when/if space becomes available.” The Board suggest to strike #3. Beau Garner suggested changing #4 to read “Mountain View Academy will contact each family, in the order they were drawn, and arranged for placement testing” #5 to read ” If parents decline enrollment or do not contact the school within 24 hours, their placement/enrollment will be forfeited to the next student in line for that placement.” The sequence of numbering needs to reflect the changes. Beau Garner moved to accept the Lottery Policy with the amended changes as listed. Jessica Justman 2nd the motion, and the Board unanimously approved.
3.2 Approve Admission Policy: After reviewing the Admission Policy statement in the Admission Policy, the 2nd paragraph, 48 hrs needs to be changed to 24 hrs.
