At the meetings held on August 22, 2022 and September 6, 2022, Committee members and members-at-large began to brainstorm ideas about what to accomplish during the current school year. Staff took the ideas and input from the Committee and crafted a draft work plan for the YAC to review at the September 19, 2022 meeting. At this meeting, the final draft work plan was reviewed and approved with no modification (Attachment 1).
The work plan items approved by the YAC are described as follows:
Ongoing Work Items
