This week's School Committee agenda

Tomorrow night's School Committee agenda has a little bit of everything in it.
(For those who don't know how to find the agenda, go to worcesterschools.org, click on 'School Committee,' and the link to the agenda will be on the righthand side of the page. This works after Friday of the week preceeding a meeting.)

• The Superintendent is giving her "Start of School" report (you might remember that this got postponed the first week of school). If you're looking for numbers of kids enrolled, classes of a particular size, who's a new hire, number of buses used this year...have we got a report for you!
• We're thanking Target for the new Union Hill library and those from the court system for the painting this summer.
• Reports are coming back both from the Accountability subcommittee and the Teaching, Learning, and Student Supports meeting. That's the new accountability system, AP, innovation schools, vocational ed, community schools...
• We're going to (I think!) hear something about the South High swimming pool.
• There's a request going in on Latino education in the city of Worcester and creation of a group looking at that (more and more relevant all the time).
• Considering policies on bullying and on Facebook (social media; always a popular one!)
• A request for information on integration of early childhood ed with K-12 ed.
• A few things about Grafton Street. I've heard that we won't yet be getting a report on Grafton Street tomorrow night, but that it will be forthcoming soon.
• Approving some applications for the state's Green Repair program. This is for windows and doors at Burncoat High, roof repair at Jacob Hiatt, and HVAC/boiler at Union Hill (the old building: it's 117 this year!).
• We're seeing some grants coming in (including one from Homeland Security).

Executive session starts at 6; the public meeting will start right about 7 pm tomorrow night at City Hall.
