5) PRINCIPAL

Mr. Vance announced that the new computer systems were ordered yesterday. This includes 25 new units with server. They are also planning to do some cabling to tie the computers in the library and the office to the computer lab. The computers should be delivered within the next couple of weeks.

St. Vivian's students were featured in a promo called the Cincinnati All Stars in an issue of All About Kids. The two students featured were, Ann Patterson in sixth grade and Eric Yager-Schweller in third grade.

The enrollment next year is over 400 students. Some grades are already closed such as seventh, second, kindergarten and preschool. Although first grade needs to be talked up since there is only 16 students enrolled for next year. There are approximately 23 new students next year. The budget he has proposed for next year will most likely pass.

Mrs. Dodd was nominated for "Teacher of the Year" sponsored by Sam's Stores.

This year's computer person is donating some of her time and will bill St. Vivian's for the balance. Mr. Vance would like to use the surplus towards new furniture for the computer lab (chairs and tables).
