V. Old Business
A. ACT prep class started 2 weeks ago. Due to low enrollment, we will only make about $200. An effort was made to get students from other schools, but to no avail. The class time was changed to Saturdays from 9am-12 to 8am-11. The teachers agreed to take less pay because they are only teaching one rotation. The group decided that it was still a worthwhile project.
B. Mr. Rufener submitted an allocation request.
