The Head Start Policy Council met and recommended Ms. Melissa Watson to serve as the Head Start Director; that recommendation was reported to the board during the superintendent’s updates.
Separately, Mrs. Dominique Miller asked the board to approve a Head Start Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) and Quality Improvement (QI) funding application. The board approved the application by roll call, with votes recorded in the minutes as 10 yeas. The approval was noted as having Finance Committee approval dated May 24, 2022.
The minutes reflect the Policy Council recommendation and the board’s approval of the funding application; they do not record a separate board vote specifically appointing Ms. Watson as director, only the Policy Council recommendation as reported.
