APPROVAL OF AGENDA: It was MOVED by Marilyn Thompson, seconded by Jamie Stevens THAT THE AGENDA BE APPROVED AS CIRCULATED. 1
2 STUDENT PRESENTATION A. G. BAILLIE MEMORIAL SCHOOL CHOIR: The Board was privileged to hear two songs performed by members of the A. G. Baillie Memorial School choir. Under the direction of the music teacher Jane Miller, with assistance from teacher Pat Duggan, the group of elementary students delighted those in attendance with their renditions of My Heart Soars, written by Chief Dan George, and Someone Like Me, composed by Donna Rhodenizer. Chair Trudy Thompson thanked the students for sharing their musical talent with the Board. Member Jamie Stevens, who represents the New Glasgow area, presented the choir with a token of appreciation on the Board s behalf. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: It was MOVED by Mackie Ross, seconded by Angela Dwyer-James THAT THE MINUTES OF THE REGULAR BOARD MEETING HELD ON SEPTEMBER 14, 2011 BE APPROVED. BUSINESS ARISING FROM THE MINUTES: There was no business arising from the minutes of the previous meeting. CORRESPONDENCE: The Board Secretary reported that a letter dated September 29, 2011 was received from the Honourable Ramona Jennex, Minister of Education, pertaining to amendments that the Department of Education will propose to Section 52A of the Education Act during the fall sitting of the legislature. The proposed amendments would limit the forms of censure that can be appealed to the Minister to those which are relatively more serious. Members would no longer have the option of appealing to the Minister in cases of censure through public reprimand, but would retain this right in the three other forms of censure. Members would have the right to appeal a public reprimand through judicial review through the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia. This change is intended to ensure an appropriate use of resources and support school board authority to address matters of school board governance. Chair Trudy Thompson suggested that any concerns pertaining to the proposed changes could be sent to the Board Secretary. Board Members were provided with a copy of the letter. COMMITTEE REPORTS: COMMITTEE-OF-THE-WHOLE: There was no written report from the Committee-of-the-Whole meeting, as the meeting had taken place immediately prior to the regular Board meeting. 2
3 EDUCATION SERVICES: Jamie Stevens, Committee Chair, presented a report from the September 20, 2011 meeting of the Education Services Committee.

Achievement Gap Initiative (AGI): Education Services staff presented information on the Achievement Gap Initiative/Tripod Project. They distributed two documents, gave background information on AGI, and explained how CCRSB became involved with the Tripod student survey. Results of the survey have been received. Once the results have been studied, supports will be put in place, similar to the Supporting Learners Initiative. Schools with best practices will be used as models to help bring success to other schools. Draft Policy Revision #ES-G-04: A draft revision to Policy #ES-G-04, Assessment, Evaluation and Reporting of Student Learning was distributed to committee members. Mr. Milner reported that principals would receive professional development on the guidelines associated with the policy at the Regional Leadership meeting in October. Final drafts of these documents will be available in the near future. Early Development Instrument: Mr. Milner advised that the results of the Early Development Instrument (EDI) administered in May 2011 have been received. When these results have been examined, they will be shared with individual schools and stakeholders. Mr. Milner explained the importance of the data in relation to a child s readiness for school.

HUMAN RESOURCES SERVICES: Committee Chair Marilyn Murray reported on one item from the Human Resources Services Committee meeting held on September 20, Non-Union Economic Increase: The committee reviewed communication from the Treasury Board indicating that non-union employees were eligible for a 1% economic increase, effective April 1, However, because of the Board authorizing a 2.9% economic increase in 2009, CCRSB non-union employees are only eligible to receive 0.1%. This will align our employee group with economic increases received by other non-union employees throughout the province. 4
5 Additionally, the Province has given approval allowing a 65%/35% cost sharing for benefits for CCRSB non-union employees, aligning this group with the Board s NSGEU and CUPE employees. As a result of previous Board direction, the above changes are being actioned by staff.
