Present: Don Berger (Chair), Michael Paesler, Duncan Anderson, Lyndsey Harrington, Matthew Gardzina, Catherine Miller, Eric Grush, Brad Vaughn, Souvik Chatterjee, Bill Coulthart, Dave Modlin, Jeff Kenney

  1. The committee members reviewed the Campus Master Plan Survey. Suggestions for the survey:
    • Don Berger is to write a letter to go along with the survey explaining the survey and giving a timeline of the committee’s meetings and survey deadlines. It was also suggested that Don ask Parents to get input from their students when filling out the survey.
    • Question 4. The library should be included in the question regarding the Administration Building.
    • Question 2. Regarding physical improvements to current space, add "or play sports" to the question.
    • Add a question 8 for "Other Comments/Suggestions".
    • Make the questionnaire one-sided for ease in breaking up the questions and distributing the data for compilation.
    • Note on surveys "Parent Survey", "Student Survey", and "Employee Survey".
  2. It was decided that in order to get the best response from parents, the questionnaires should be mailed out to all parents with self- addressed envelopes. The survey will also be e-mailed to all parents, students, and employees if they prefer to answer electronically.
  3. Lyndsey Harrington and Souvik Chatterjee will head up getting the students to respond to the surveys. One will be responsible for the Middle School and the other will be responsible for the Upper School. They will work with the student council officers to promote response.
  4. Matthew Gardzina will be the faculty volunteer to coordinate their responses. Division/Department Surveys will be sent to all major divisions and Faculty Chairs.
  5. Duncan Anderson and Jeff Kenney will be the parent
