Present: Nicki Bertke, Debbie Darner, Dave Dilbone, Kristy Holm, Marion Stout and Alan Zunke

Absent: Doug Curnes, Eric Helman and Brian Woerner

First and foremost, we wish Debbie Darner a very happy retirement! This committee will miss her positive, gentle input. Debbie has spoken with Keith Yunker, TCEA President, about needing to be replaced on this committee.

Final Reviews: There were no final reviews scheduled.

Revised/Amended Plans or EOA’s:

Sanders-Myra-14* Submitted EOA#10 on 5/31/12 for a student teacher from WSU during the fall 2011 semester. This was approved for 20 contact hours, since Myra mentioned a student teacher in Part A of her original IPDP. Myra will submit her verification letters from both WSU and her building administrator to the LPDC committee at her final review. Her midterm review remains September 2012.

New Plans:

Fulton-Lindsey-15* Submitted her new plan on 6/5/12 and was approved with a notation on E-4 to “EOA#3, Documentation/Hours record/Certificate from Committee Chairperson”. Her midterm is scheduled for January 2014.

Mid Term Reviews: There were no midterm reviews scheduled for today.

Other:

Time and date change for our June 2013 Meeting. Our final meeting the 2012-2013 school year will now be held from Noon until 1:30 on Thursday, June 6, 2013 at the Board Office. It will be a carry in lunch like today’s meeting. Ann will make this change on our web site and email a copy of the new time and date to all committee members, building secretaries and West Central to post.

Streamline IPDP Review Process—Post minutes and agendas on our website instead of e-mailing them to everyone. At the beginning of the 2012-2013 school year, Kristy Holm, our committee co-chairperson will e-mail all educators, letting them know that may find the LPDC agendas and minutes on our website. They will no longer be emailed out monthly. Go to Faculty Lounge—LPDC Guidelines—LPDC Agendas/Minutes and the date by: year, month, date.

For new plans, (IPDP’s)— Beginning in September of 2012-2013, all new IPDP’s should be submitted electronically by the educator, to the entire committee. This will take the place of Ann copying all of the agenda items and sending them to the committee members prior to the meeting. Ann will check with technology to see about setting up a group for the LPDC committee on e-mail. A copy of the license for which the IPDP is being written should be scanned and e-mailed to all committee members as well.

Midterm reviews—when an educator e-mails his/her progress, thus far, it should be submitted to the entire committee using the LPDC Committee e-mail group.

For final reviews, each of our buildings now has scanner copiers. Our educators who are scheduled for final reviews will scan their proof of completion of IPDP one week prior to the meeting date and e-mail it to all committee members for their review prior to the meeting once again using the same LPDC Committee e-mail.

Ann will scan and e-mail to all committee members IPDP’s that have been submitted previous to the 2012-2013 school year and need to be reviewed.

Review and Revision of our EOA Guidelines—The committee added EOA #19 Trojan Institute Activity’s and EOA #20 Any activity approved by your building administrator as a part of your goal set during the evaluation process effective 2013-2014 school year. These changes will be made to our EOA sheet on line.

Ann will update and revise the goldenrod check off list that we give to educators at their final review. Ann will no longer be typing purchase orders for their reimbursement; however, we will give them specific instructions to accomplish this on their own.

This meeting was adjourned at 2:00 p.m. Our next meeting will be Tuesday, September 25, 2012 at 3:30 p.m. at the Board Office.

Respectfully submitted,

Ann Frigge, LPDC Secretary
