Wording+of+Ob.+11

Please list your thoughts on the wording that should be used for Objective 11. Be sure to list your District # by your comments.

Steve Luxbacher (D3P) - The wording that was given in both the President's meeting and the vote itself was that action plan 1 was to determine the feasibility of developing a consistent method state-wide of selecting students to the district festivals (I am paraphrasing here). To be very honest, the only reason I voted to approve #11 was because of this change in wording. This was the wording we voted on, and this should be the wording we keep. If we see that, after the conversations have taken place, we can move forward with selecting a consistent method for district selection, then we should do so. If not, we should have an "out" that allows us to continue on our current paths. I have gone to my membership with these topics, and have gotten considerably mixed reactions between disciplines. It may take longer than we expect to "turn the ship." I think we need to keep the flexibility in the amended wording, and reevaluate for the next strategic plan.

Brian Stacey D4 - I have to agree with Steve. I thought that I was voting on different language. The Language that was presented to us at the meeting was not the language that currently exists in the Strategic plan. I would hope that we would ether make the language mach what we voted on or have a revote. I voted no to have #11 but felt much better with the new language.
