Central Staff Notes - January 20th

Just a few reminders from the last Central Staff Meeting:

New Background Check Procedure -
There is a new letter and form to be completed by each applicant at all interviews. The forms are numbered so will be kept by Terri and handed out on an as needed basis. They are also currently in short supply so be sure to give Terri advance notice before you require them.

• Review letter w/all candidates at end of interview.
• Stress that along with references we must now verify employment with prior employer.
• Have them complete the background check paperwork and sign the letter.
• Inform applicant that this is a new process, so we are not sure of the turn around date.
• We will let them know results as soon as we can.

Conversion and Community Engagement - Come to our next Central Staff Meeting on February 4th prepared to discuss a plan for gathering data for Conversion.

This data might include:

• Classes to be considered for conversion
• Who we would want to consider involving (community / parents)
• What other options or alternatives are out there for children who might have attended a classroom that is targeted for conversion.
• All considerations of a targeted area (needs of the targeted area's population)
• Costs considerations and facility renovations that need to be considered
• Types of technical assistance we might need to access.
• Think about a resonable time table.
• Any other considerations that would enable us to provide continuity of care.
