The Board of Ed meets April 29

copied from the Commissioner's weekly update:

 At the April 29 regular meeting, the Board will vote to endorse the Commissioner's proposed one-year waiver extension request. The Board will discuss the Massachusetts Advocates for Diversity in Education Task Force report and hear the Department's efforts to attain the diversity goals. The Board will discuss a new report and additional data on the 2012-13 educator evaluations. The Board will hear updates on the new Lawrence Public Schools contract agreement, Level 5 schools, and PARCC. The Board will discuss and vote on regulations related to student discipline and vote to rescind regulations related to private occupational schools. The Board will discuss and vote on a charter school matter and hear an update on the Fiscal Year 2015 budget.

Due in particular to that waiver issue (as well as the update on PARCC), I'll be there and liveblogging.
