Day of PATHSFEST: we need 2 people at the registration table  8:00 - 8:30 and 11:00 - 11:30

Val will give a lesson to whoever (Donna H. and Gail?)  on how to use the registration application

Hospitality students will be tour guides.  It would be great to have a couple of tours, and to get visitors into areas of Building B.  We will get the map to Hospitality students by Wednesday.

Next meeting: MONDAY!

Dave, Val and Di will meet at lunch tomorrow to do the map.

Summary:
Next meeting: Wednesday, April 16 in Room 320 (Web Programming)

Please see the PATHSFEST Planning page for updates (or read the full notes). We made lots of decisions about which students to invite and talked about publicity letters, post cards, and posters.

We also heard a brief update about Vicky and Phil’s meeting with Michael Hale about possible collaboration opportunities between PATHS and Casco Bay High School.

We had a short meeting today, due to the emergency staff meeting. Notes:

Revised post card looks great. 100 post cards to all 23 sending schools, so about 2300 (say 2500) cards, + 10 cards per staff person, so an extra 350. Plus additional cards for Building B? How many? We need 2850.

Student visitors get a letter (we need to write this).

Posters: the PATHSFEST logo and “A Celebration of Student Learning” need to be more prominent, and the description needs to be friendlier and more welcoming on the poster instead of a list of things.

About 125 posters for PATHSFEST. 3 per sending school, plus some for teachers to hang up around town and around school.

Vicky asked Shoshana to meet with Dave B. after the fashion show to talk about a PATHSFEST press release.

Maybe Tina can do a PATHSFEST release for the Press Herald, with photos from John (Valerie’s job is to get photos from John).

Vicky started by recounting her conversation with Lisa about the Dance program and the enrollment numbers.
- kids talking about what they like about the class (video?)
- important to talk about why this class is different than taking a class somewhere else.
- kids should get Phys Ed credit for the Dance class.
- need to go to the Phys Ed learning results and make sure everything is covered. Click here to see they Phys Ed MLRs.
- Bo could come into the Dance class and work with students on testimonials.

We took these ideas and others and here are the recommendations:
- check with John M. about Phys. Ed. credits
- check with Bo about leading students in writing testimonials
- check with Dave B. about a video montage for hallway, Channel 3 TV, and Web site
- check with Val about Web site update
