II. Financial report
The audit is in process. Our auditor, Seligman, Friedman & Associates, have all of the financial information for the last fiscal year. The audit should be completed by the first week of September.
Kyle distributed summary reports: a profit and loss statement and a balance sheet.
He is currently looking into contracting out for all of our financial / accounting needs.
III. Other business
A. Bellefonte Board meeting annual report scheduled for Aug. 31. The required annual report has been sent to PDE. Kyle will post this report on line.
B. Diane raised concern that the length and timing of parent/Board meetings place an unreasonable demand on student representatives and teacher time.
Suggestions made to address the reality that we have too much business to complete in one meeting:
Lori Perman suggested that teachers come up with ideas and come back to the group. Parents please contact teachers with ideas and input.
C. Glenn recognized the Lehman family for their generous sharing. Diane and family have made enormous contributions of resources to CLC. Kyle suggested that we put out call to all families requesting materials (books, etc.) they may be willing to contribute to our classrooms and library.
