<li class=MsoNormal style='mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'>Discussion of the
attempted abduction of a female student before Winter Break. Parents
were notified of the situation via the list serve, which reaches 520-530
people at this time. However, it doesn’t get everyone,
especially U of I people who had already started Winter Break and those
who aren’t on the list serve. The school got the story to the
local media quickly and gave information to students before they went home.
However, that information doesn’t always make it home. This
raised the issue of the need for a way to reach more people. Erin
McCall suggested that information could be included in the Report Card in
the Cub Communicator. <o:p></o:p></li>

<p class=MsoNormal><b><u>Financial Report</u></b>: Peggy Jenkins –

<p class=MsoNormal><b><u>February Parent Night- </u></b>Kris Poncek and Sue
Hand – A date was set for Thursday, February 28 from 7 – 9
p.m. There will be a general presentation covering how kids are
developmentally at this age and expectations to have with a bibliography for
further reading. Then the audience will break out into groups that will
discuss relevant topics with a couple of rotations. They will try to
involve the Latah County Youth Advocacy Council. It will be open to the
public as well. It was suggested that day care could be provided, perhaps
through the Bear Boosters, and that students could be encouraged/motivated to
attend (via getting credit/door prizes). Faye Nagler will work on
coordinating this event. <o:p></o:p></p>
