This document discusses Basloe Library's efforts to establish stable funding through becoming a school district public library. It notes that the library currently faces funding cuts that limit its hours, programs, and materials. Becoming a school district library would provide more consistent community-based funding to restore hours and services. Voters will be asked on May 21st to approve the library district formation and budget of $270,930, providing more resources while only increasing taxes $1 per $1000 of assessed home value. Failure to pass the measure could lead to further cuts threatening the library's ability to serve the community.

Call to Order
On behalf of this year’s PTA Board, WELCOME to the first general membership meeting for the 2008-2009 school year. I am Kara Payne Palmer, and I serve as a co-President with my husband, Cliff Palmer. Following the introduction of the entire PTA Board and Chairpersons, our principal, Mrs. Claire Frick, will provide an address. She will be followed by the President’s Report, and then reports by our board members. Afterwards, we will open the floor to you for questions and comments.
With this being our first meeting, our hope is to complete all PTA business within the next hour and half. Future meetings will should not last more than an hour. We appreciate your being here and look forward to representing the PTA this year.
NEXT SLIDE
As you can see from this list, there are numerous chairs who cover a variety of important programs. As you review this, please note of the few vacant chairs. Of special note, the Bash and Dash. We will need at least 10 people to oversee several key positions (like, the silent auction, tisket-tasket, food, tickets, races and trophies, and booths, just to a name a few), and another 20 or so volunteers to coordinate other important activities. With this, we will have another very successful Bash and Dash). Another important vacant chair is the Nibble Nook. If you have an interest in any of these positions, please let one of the Board members know – the sooner, the better. Now for the Principal’s Address, Mrs. Claire Frick.
Board members will present information concerning their areas of responsibility.
Where a vote from the general membership is required, one will be taken at the end of each area.
Forms are provided for those wanting to put their question in writing. Please fill out the form completely and give it to one of the Board members. You can request that we answer your question during the meeting, via email, or by phone.
Highlights: This Board will provide full disclosure on all action taken on each matter we consider throughout the year. During General Membership meetings, we will provide the level of detail in proportion to the amount of time we have. If you would like additional details on certain items, please request this either during the meeting or by contacting the Board.
Limited Fundraising: After consultation with the Mrs. Frick and a fundraising committee comprised of teachers and parents, the Board has established a general policy of “limited fundraising” for this school year. We believe this will still allow the PTA to raise the needed funds to carry out a wide variety of programs and projects, and still limit the number of times parents are asked to give. More fundraising specifics will be presented later.
Web Site: The PTA is developing a web site that will be linked to the school’s web site, and provide information on our budget and expenditures, volunteering opportunities, calendar – all part of the full disclosure approach.
By Laws: Our current ones are expiring and so we will review and revise as needed, and present updates at the next general membership meeting.
PTA Training: This Board will be receiving specific training from the county and state PTA organizations which will allow us to do our jobs better.
Teacher Appreciation: This is a key matter for this Board. We have pledged to the faculty and staff our desire to work hand in hand with them and to support our teachers in every way possible throughout the school year. One example: teacher’s funds (explain briefly).
Now to our first order of business requiring a vote of the general membership.
Next slide. To save paper, we are providing the minutes from the last general membership meeting in May. Please take a couple of minutes to review this, and the next slide. Afterwards, we will accept a motion the minutes be approved.
We have a Board Vacancy to fill – the position of Corresponding Secretary. Mrs. Aimee Jessup who serves as our Mentor Coordinator has been recommended for the position. Are there any objections.

We have a Board Vacancy to fill – the position of Corresponding Secretary. Mrs. Aimee Jessup who serves as our Mentor Coordinator has been recommended for the position. We have fully “vetted” Aimee to the point where she could actually serve as the Vice President of the United States, or at least Governor of Alaska. Just kidding. Are there any objections to this nomination.
Next slide. The Board is recommending that the General Membership meetings be conducted every other month. Our recommendation is based on the following reasons: First, the Executive Board will continue to meet each month, as will the PTA co-Presidents and the Principal. There are several committees that will also meet monthly, and as we get closer to big events like the Bash and Dash, there will be groups meeting weekly. 2nd, the PTA budget and list of expenditures will be posted monthly on our web site for anyone to view. We will also post weekly updates on the web site. 3rd, the Board will always have the ability to call a general membership meeting during an off month, should their be pressing PTA business. 4th, by having bi-monthly meetings, this will allow the Board and school to offer more adult and children programs during the in between months. Our 1st VP for Program Development will cover this in a few minutes. There will certainly be something going on at the school each month that the PTA will sponsor or conduct. We’d like to call for a vote on this, but before are there any objections or questions?
