Regular City Council Meeting Monday, February 14, 2011 Page 11 Councilmember Willmus questioned modeling or projecting over the next few years; with Dr. Thein responding that it had been done, but that the models were outdated already, which was a surprise to the District. Dr. Thein noted that Brim- hall has historically been used as a bell weather for the District; however, it was now the District's average and within 1-2 students of losing funding. Councilmember Johnson requested financial and income guidelines used to de- termine whether assistance could be provided. Dr. Thein advised that the guide- lines were based on family size, with the District seeing more single parent fami- lies than ever, he didn't have that information available tonight; but would obtain it through the Districts food service program and make it available to City Man- ager Malinen for forwarding to the City Council and for public awareness. Councilmember Johnson noted that in the past that information had been sent home with students periodically, but he didn't recall seeing it for some time. Lisa Edstrom presentation Chair Edstrom provided the School Board's response to reflect the face of the community as it changed, noting the challenges it provided, but also the many op- portunities. Chair Edstrom presented the District's Mission Statement detailing their core purpose in order to provide a strategic road map, incorporated in their Equity Vision and Values, providing guidance to the Board in working with Ad- ministration to build an effective operating plan. Chair Edstrom expressed pride in the document and the community input received in its development. Dr. Thein noted that each Strategic Direction had a `vision card" attached to it that served to hold the District accountable to accomplish; and would be available in the near future on the District's website for public awareness. Dr. Thein noted that there was a lot of work to be done, but he expressed pride in the accomplish- ments to-date. Dr. Thein expressed pride in the District's seven (7) represented municipalities and their working relationship between the District and those mu- nicipalities. Mayor Roe thanked Dr. Thein and School Board Chair Edstrom for their presen- tation; and echoed appreciation for the partnership from the City's perspective as well. b.
