 4. Review 24-25 Trustlands and TSSA plans

5. Comments/Questions from Council Members

Member Porter asked for clarification of why certain undergarment types are called out by name in the school dress and grooming description.  There is a chance that female students may feel singled out or embarrassed because of this.  The request was made that the description be edited to reference "undergarments" in general.  The council supported the change being made with the next edit of the student handbook. 

Member Kelly Cefalia shared concerns about the fluidity of the north parent drop-off/pick-up area.  Vehicles are not pulling forward as they should be causing a backup in the process.  Principal Nielson stated that efforts would be made to help smooth things out with better communication with those using that drop-off/pick-up zone.
