Goal 1: Do we need to keep install SMART boards in k-8 rooms? Haven't we done that? At the very least revise to say looking at those rooms without? (KRS) Goal 1: Change Robin's name to Library Media Specialist. (KRS)

Goal 2: Infinate Campus Training - can we add something about evaluating the email capability in IC? We need a systemt hat works. Having teachers having to click "update" is not working. Emails are going out and parents are missing the information.Lorie can attest to this - it is frustrating for the parents when communication breaks down. (KRS)

Goal 2: Survey students? To my knowledge, we haven't done this. Do we intend to? If so, we need to do it. If not, then remove it from here. (KRS)
