PUBLIC GOOD & WELFARE:
Dennis Desnulniers, Woonsocket Resident: He stated Mr. McGee, who has been here mostly his whole career, is certainly qualified
to be our new superintendent. If you don't think he's qualified then why are you making him the assistant superintendent, creating a
new position. The teachers and unions are recommending him and hopefully the SC is recommending him; he hopes they put in a
good word to the Budget Committee for appointment. He has nothing against the fellow who is going to be assigned as the
superintendent but here is a man who has put his career in Woonsocket. These people are working hard and you are going to appoint
someone from out of town. Thinks Mr. McGee would put stability in our school department. He hopes the SC listens to their
suggestions.
Jeffrey Partington, WTG President: It appears from the Woonsocket Call we have another sad day in Woonsocket. The front page
stated Robert Mitchell is being recommended to be the next Superintendent in Woonsocket. As we had no say in the process, nor did
the parents, students, teachers, or community leaders, then it appears outside political influences did not want the learning community
to have any say in the choice of leader. Similar to the resolution that you unanimously passed in June not supporting the Mayoral
Academy because you do not have a voice in the process, it appears that this candidate is being railroaded down our throats due to
some outside political agenda. In a recent press release he stated, WED has had a long period of distress; so much so that many
talented teachers and administrators have left for more stable conditions, many significant contributors to this school system who
remain committed have either grown up here or have created significant roots in the city. Dr. McGee has proven this type of loyalty to
this community, these students, through his various roles as vice principal, principal, assistant superintendent, and as the current
acting superintendent. Dr. McGee is the obvious choice for this community. It is my understanding that the vote to approve the
recommendation will come sometime next week. When this SC was appointed, many feared that members might be beholden to the
Budget Commission or the Mayor and vote that way. You have not done that; you have voted for what is in the best interest of all
students and I am hopeful that in the vote next week that you vote with your conscience, your heart, and do what is best for all of us
and vote the appointment down. Let the Budget Commission have the burden to override what we all know to be the correct decision.
Alethia Forcier, Ledgewood Lane: She is here about the uniform policy; she is not here for her kids because she has stressed to the
SC that her kids will not wear one but she is here because she sees potential lawsuits with this dress code. There is nothing in the
policy that says how to apply for a waiver and the eligibility for a waiver and it needs to be put in here; last SC meeting she was told
people in poverty could apply for a waiver and was also told that they will be using the free and reduced lunch lists to decide on these
waivers; she knows a lot of families who do not qualify for this but have homes and have been slammed with taxes; it is unfair that
this waiver is leaving out the working poor in city that own homes and are overburdened by taxes. Two weeks ago at the high school
it stated that footwear must be closed toe and heel and heels must be low to ensure safety; now they can wear this because this is a
concern. At the middle school, it says pajama bottoms are prohibited but at the high school it says pajama tops and bottoms; so are
WSC Minutes Open Session
September 24, 2014
they allowed to wear pajama tops at the middle school? She has a problem with this policy being voted on tonight. What happens
when you have a substitute principal, they read this policy, notice that the Forcier child is not in uniform, then keeps her in for recess
not knowing that this policy is not suppose to be enforced at the elementary level because it doesn't say it on the policy, and there
goes a lawsuit. A solution to this problem is the policy that was written and spearheaded by Louise Masse. Another point about this
new dress code policy is that jeans can be worn but this is nothing is stated to prevent them from wearing ripped or jeans with holes.
Ms. Masse's smaller written policy covers more than the two pages the SC has written. She would appreciate a waiver added to this
policy before they vote.
Estelle Bubble, Third Avenue: Why don't we just leave the dress code the way it is, The dress code with the colors was perfect.
The kids say it doesn't matter what they wear because they don't enforce the dress code; how are these kids going to give respect if
they don't have it. She has a facebook page that is called Woonsocket Area Dress Code; this is for people who want to sell their
clothes, who want to trade it (swap), or who just want to donate their clothing; she has over 80 people involved now. We need to
enforce the dress code.
Keith Janette, WHS Student: He is here to support 2 nd passage of the new dress code policy for the high school; this policy makes
more sense than the policy that currently exists; he thinks there was unequal enforcement with the old policy. He thinks students
should be able to wear what they want to wear as long it is not offensive or obstructing learning. There should be a much clearer
waiver policy and it should be written so he hopes the SC does act on this. Now it's time to stop focusing on this one issue and move
onto more important things.
Roxane Carey, WTG Vice-President: She is here to speak about the hiring of the lawyer. She doesn't care who we hire but when
she was looking at the numbers, she noticed we are going to hire someone for a stipend for 400 hours; is there some kind of an
agreement if we go over the 400 hours. When you vote on this tonight this may be part of the discussion you may want to have.
Daniel Guernon, Vose Street: He received a letter today in regards to the situation that took place yesterday at Globe. Police
arrived at the school out of concern for what could have been a domestic situation; not knowing what happened caused a great amount
of concern to the parents; he did receive a robocall stating what was in the letter but only received that call today. His concern as a
parent is sending his child off to school the following day after police presence was seen in the school; there were parents who did not
send their children to school today; in a situation like this, he feels that an immediate call should have been put out from public safety
to address what has taken place. How the situation was handled with the police making their presence was excellent but he has a
problem with the lack of communication that came forth after the fact. Right now is a good time to examine protocols from the top
down and use this as a measure to do a better job in the future.
RECOGNITIONS & ANNOUNCEMENTS: Interim Superintendent Patrick McGee stated Cornell Henderson, Principal of the
Woonsocket High School and Woonsocket Area Career and Technical Center announced today that Austin Ferrenti has been named a
Commended Student in the 2015 National Merit Scholarship Program. A Letter of Commendation from the school and National
Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC), which conducts the program, will be presented by the principal to this scholastically talented
senior. Austin is a senior in WACTC's Biotechnology Program. About 34,090 Commended Students throughout the nation are being
recognized for their exceptional academic promise. Commended Students placed among the top five percent of more than 1.5 million
students who entered the 2015 competition by taking the 2013 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test
(PSAT/NMSQT). Congratulations Austin!

DiscussionNote on the amendments of Policy P4-15-School Readiness Policy —2nd Passage — S. Seale, J. Rivera
1.
Motion Made: S. Seale
2": G. Lacouture
G. Lacouture said if there are amendments doesn't this go back to 1" passage. S. Rapport stated there were some wording changes
that she discussed with K. Blais; because of the nature of those changes and because they weren't material or significant, she does not
think it was necessary to bring it back to 1" reading. S. Seale stated both the changes were requested prior to the initial passage but
through oversight were not included; first change goes with the high school and middle school; when speaking about pants it used to
say tights may not be worn as an outer garment and now it's been added to say tights and leggings may not be worn as outer garments
but they can be worn under a skirt or dress; second change is at the high school level to remove the requirement that footwear be
closed toe and heel. G. Lacouture stated he does not approve of open toe, open heel footwear for health and safety reasons; therefore
he will not support the changes with the school readiness policy; however if the vice-chair removed the closed heel and toe he would
support the passage of the policy. S. Pawlina stated there are many things about this policy she is not comfortable with; the merits
that Ms. Fortier brought forth tonight that was written by Ms. Masse really should be just looked at and really just put into effect. She
does not believe they should be able to wear hats in school; she doesn't believe this is what they wanted or what should have come out
of all of this; we have gone from one extreme to another; she can't support this policy at all. S. Seale stated there are so many
different opinions about this policy; some think we should continue with the dress code as is and work on the enforcement and some
just want a dress code that is permissive in nature across the board but thinks the real question "Is this better than what we currently
have?"; a lot of the amendments that were made were asked for by the parents and/or administrators. If you think this is better than
what we currently have then vote yes. .1. Rivera asked G. Lacouture that if the amendment for the closed toe and heel was made they
would have his support of the policy. G. Lacouture said yes.

Motion Made: S. Seale
2"d: G. Lacouture
S. Seale stated that one of the revised changes from 2013 is the reports to part which states the position report to the superintendent of
schools with input from the Mayor of Woonsocket; he was wondering what is the basis for this input. G. Lacouture said he has been

told that the position will be a split position between WED and the City of Woonsocket of approximately 90/10; WED would pay
90% and the city would pay 10% which is similar to the Human Resource Director which was originally voted on by the SC and
Budget Commission (BC). Mr. Wolfgang stated he was not told by the BC about the exact percentage. G. Lacouture made an
amendment to the job description.

Motion to pay Sara Rapport $75,000 for 400 hours as a retainer: S. Seale
2"d: G. Lacouture
S. Seale asked what happens after 400 hours. G. Lacouture stated they would have to re-bid; they can go out to look for another
attorney or they could extend the retainer for another $75,000. What they are approving tonight is $75,000 for 400 hours which is
$187.50 per hour.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT: Interim Superintendent Patrick McGee responded to the questions asked by the Globe Park
parents and stated he takes full responsibility for not reporting this the day it happened and he apologizes for this. He would like to
commend Lynn Prentiss, Principal at Globe Park School who did a phenomenal job that day. These types of situations you hope to
never encounter but he can tell us that she was very decisive, followed all the procedures and protocols by contacting his office, Mr.
Fontaine, and the WPD. The WPD responded immediately, assessed the situation, and determined that there were no children or
adults were in danger at the school; thank you to the WPD. As we move forward we will continue to assess our responses as we
always do when we have situations to make sure what we do is right for the kids and our schools are safe.
SCHOOL BOARD GOOD & WELFARE:
S. PAWLINA: Passed.
S. SEALE: He-thanked everyone who has participated and came to the uniform committee meetings and who have spoken at the two
SC meetings; their input was invaluable. He knows not everyone is happy with the policy but he thinks it is a step into the right
direction with moving forward with this dress code. The first SELAC meeting is scheduled for October 2 nd at 6:30 p.m. at the WMSHamlet Building in Room 124; SELAC stands for Special Education Local Advisory Committee; this is an excellent resource for
parents who have special needs children to have their questions answered or to find other resources to help.
G. LACOUTURE: He said Mr. Desaulniers and Mr. Partington discussed the superintendent's appointment; from a SC view point,
this has not been, in his opinion, a positive process. From the beginning, the committee that was initially set up had all of those things
that he has been familiar with; when this was taken to the powers that be in state government, the answer was no, no way. As his
authority as Chair, he did appoint S. Seale and D. Chattman and thanked them for the hours they have put in. No one is overly happy
with the fact that Dr. McGee is not going to be the candidate as reported in this morning's Woonsocket Call. He is personally happy
of the fact that we are going to have a superintendent and he will give this superintendent 100% of what he can from this body. He is
even happier that Dr. McGee will be elevated to a position he deserves; that of an assistant superintendent with commensurate pay.
Dr. McGee, like many in the room, is committed to the WED and we all look forward to him staying here,

Thanked Ms.. Bubble for her comments about the clothing; she provides a need to this community for people who have difficulty in
obtaining the type of clothing that is needed. We are not sure of the exact date of the appointment of the new superintendent but it
will be next week; either Monday or Wednesday; it will be kind of a joint meeting with the Budget Commission at which time the
new superintendent will be here; we invite you to attend, invite your friends, members of your school, and we hope to have some kind
of collation to go with this.
