This report is created by Ken Ducote and Rose Drill-Peterson on behalf of the Eastbank Collaborative of Charter Schools 

 

The Orleans Parish School Board will hold its monthly Committee Meetings on Thursday, May 8, 2014, beginning at 1:00 p.m. Committees usually review and discuss items upon which the full Board will subsequently vote at a future Board Business Meeting. Committees also review the progress of the implementation of items for which the full Board has already approved. 

 

Meeting agendas and detailed back-up documentation can be read by clicking on the titles of each Committee. OPSBrief has summarized the agenda items below. 
 
On a related subject, OPSB has published the 4th issue of its periodic report on  DBE participation and opportunities in its school rebuilding program. To read the report, click here.
