On the Agenda: High School Consolidation, Community Survey and Final Budget Amendments

Board members are expected to make significant decisions tonight.

The Bloomfield Hills Schools Board of Education has a series of meetings today beginning with a 5 p.m. study session at The Doyle Center for Professional Development, 7275 Wing Lake Rd.

School board members will be briefed on a CRESA report of district properties to better understand their current facilities and anticipated future needs. They will also hear results of a survey conducted by Cobalt Community Research on community engagement and priority assessment.

The board will break and then reconvene for their regular meeting at 7 p.m., which has a lot of perfunctory business mixed in with a few significant decisions.

The most notable agenda item will be request by Superintendent Rob Glass for the board to approve a single high school on two campuses to take effect in fall 2012. And the board must decide if Fielding Nair International, the consulting firm that developed the concepts, should continue to implement the next phase.

Other new business on the agenda includes:

  • Final budget revisions before the state's July 1 deadline.
  • First reading of proposed revisions to the Uniform Code of Student Conduct.
  • Approval of selected reproductive health education materials.

Meetings are open to the public, and are televised and streamed live on the web at http://bhstv.bloomfield.org.
