The program committee met on Tuesday June 9, 2009. The meeting was led by Martha Platt, Committee Chair, along with Judy Leigh and Sharon Fichthorn. In attendance were Marlis Kraft-Zemel, Nancy Opalka, Fairlight Beasley, Carina Urbach, Nancy Ryan, Stacey Jacobson, Audra Romano, Fran Johnston, Sarah Rosenbaum, and Carina Urbach.
The goal of the first meeting was to familiarize all participants with the current program at Oak Lane. To that end, Martha, Judy and Sharon presented an overview of the Program as it currently exists, broken into three strands: (1) elements of the Academic Program; (2) the Oak Lane year; and (3) the approach. Each strand was discussed, especially the Academic Program and its approach.
The goal of the second meeting will be to present the relevant challenges facing the school as we move forward, and to begin the work of shaping the program that will provide continuity while at the same time attempting to address those challenges. All members of the committee and others interested in contributing to this exciting project are welcome.
The next meeting is scheduled for July 8, 2009 at 7:00 p.m. in the 6th grade classroom/Summer Camp office. Please RSVP to Martha Platt by Tuesday, July 7 at mplatt@oaklanedayschool.org.
