What is the "Carver based model of Policy Governance." How does this change from the standard way the School Board does business? I noticed that the Burnsville School Board is not allowing the Boy Scouts to recruit at the Schools--because of the discrimination policy. How do the Minneapolis School Board members feel about this? Has the issue come up? There is an item in todays Strib about the three complaints filed regarding the CNIA meeting last week. Eva Young Central
