3. Ms. Fraser discussed the need to research the impact of the pandemic on the students, in regards
to absences, lawsuits for services not rendered (i.e. IEP services not provided), nutritional needs,
etc. She suggested we could make that the focus for the upcoming school year. We would have
to collect data. She suggested that we could consider supporting an art therapy program in the
school.
4. Ms. Vignale reached out to the Regional Superintendent for MSE (the Central Region), Mr. Michael
Lewis. He suggested that we contact the Department of Intergovernmental Affairs at MDCPS to
support us in getting involvement from MSE in our meetings and our initiatives so that we can
provide better support to the school and fulfill our mission regarding the Education Compact with
Miami Shores Village.

by the MSV Interim Village Manager. Ms. Walker seconded the motion, and it was approved
unanimously. Ms. Rodriguez agreed to provide background context to the Interim Village
Manager.
6. Discussion ensued regarding potential partnership between the school and the Village so that
possibly the Village could help with irrigation of the school campus and then have access to the
grounds for athletics during off-school hours. Ms. Rodriguez will look in prior minutes to find
information about discussions about this possible collaboration.
