<br />January 3,2005 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Commissioners, <br /> <br />Last week I looked through the 2004 minutes and see that we have several tasks that <br />remain unfinished. Let's discuss these items and prioritize what we want to accomplish <br />in 2005. <br /> <br />· Review Speakers' Bureau and look for ways to add to it and promote it. <br /> <br />· Meet with Superintendent John Thein. <br /> <br />· Look at ways to improve the 2005 New Teachers' packet including creating <br />bookmarks that are appropriate for Kindergarten to Senior High students. <br /> <br />· Discuss ways to enhance the Commission's role in the Rose Parade. In the past <br />Commissioners distributed candy, but we may consider distributing something <br />more relevant to human rights such as stickers or decals with a human rights <br />theme. <br /> <br />· Get a comprehensive list of commemorative months and dates that the <br />Commission could have the City Council acknowledge. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />· Send a letter to the RAS Diversity Advisory Committee, thanking them for the <br />good work that they have done in the district and asking about the RAS Diversity <br />Council and when the next meeting is scheduled. Commissioner Vnuk's term on <br />the Diversity Council expired and we are looking to replace her but would like <br />additional information, including when the next meeting is so that a <br />Commissioner could attend. <br /> <br />· Try to connect with RAS Diversity Coordinator Johanna Eager. <br /> <br />· Invite the Roseville Police to partner in a "It's Time to Talk" program similar to <br />what is being done in Chaska. <br /> <br />· The U of M Human Rights Resource Center has developed a human rights <br />curriculum. Log on to http://www.hrusa.orglhr curriculumlindex.htm to review. <br /> <br />· Recommend age appropriate books to include on bookmarks that will be <br />distributed to the students for MLK celebration. <br /> <br />.
