Cash flow predictions were provided and procedures between the Treasurer and the Administrator were firmed up to receive the correct information for reporting purposes each month.

Policy Handbook - Several policies were put forth for consideration. The board will read and respond to them via email this week. It was requested to the administration that the Policy Handbook eventually be placed on the website.

Board Calendar Items -

Extra Curricular Activities - Referring to previous decisions made by the board, it was requested that the approval of all EC Activities be a regular Board Calendar item added to May. The administrator should have all requests for EC activities to present to the board for approval at that time.

Development Goals - Will be presented at the next board meeting.

Board Visitations - Shaw and Hatcher still need to schedule.

Administrator's Report -

Tim requested the board to approve several policies he put forth. These will be considered over email by the board between now and the next board meeting.

Tim reported on the curriculum committee meetings, particularly the work being done to implement the Progymnasmata. There will be some training made available to the teachers during the last week of school. Also, the board approved (motion/seconded - unanimous) the requested changes to the secondary Bible Curriculum put forth by the curriculum committee. In effect, it strengthens the teaching of the OT - taking two years to teach instead of one, moves the formal study of hermeneutics to 12th grade and makes apologetics in 12th grade one semester.

Tim provided a report of Tom Garfield's visit and recommendations to PCCS in the development of the secondary.

Board/Parent Meetings - A motion was made/seconded, to plan formal and informal meetings with the board and interested parents of PCCS - passed 4-0 with one abstain. Dave Hatcher will organize a meeting for May or June to begin with and then we will plan future meetings.
