The Board of Ed meets next week

You can find their agenda here.
The Monday night section of their agenda is on educator evaluation.
As is their custom, the Tuesday portion of the meeting is being held at their student representative's home school, which once again this year is Pioneer Charter School of Science in Everett.
On the agenda is the usual taking of public comment and comments from the Chair, the Secretary, and the Commissioner.
They will be getting an update on the Springfield Empowerment Zone.
They are getting an update on the new MCAS exam and the updated math and ELA standards.
There will be updates on both the Holyoke and Southbridge receiverships.
There is a state student advisory council end of year report.
There is an update on the FY17 budget (the Senate begins budget deliberations Monday).

I plan to be there on Tuesday.
