Panther Place Student of the Month
Panther Place Student of the Month: October
Student's name: De’maicho Gatewood
Brief statement about the student:
This is De’maicho’s first year of attending Panther Place Afterschool Program. He
comes to us from Ms. Duff’s fifth grade class at Helmwood Heights Elementary. His
Panther Place teacher, Ms. Jennifer, nominated him saying that she really enjoys
having De’maicho in her class. She said that De’maicho always arrives with a
positive attitude. He never complains and is willing to try anything asked of him.
Here are some comments from his classmates: “De’maicho is respectful. He
always listens and follows directions when told the first time. He helps others and is
a great student.” They also all agreed that De’maicho is good at drawing and
making stuff. Our classroom assistant, Ms Kate, wrote: “De’maicho is a great
student! He is curious and always willing to learn, even when he is struggling with a
subject, he never gives up. His perseverance never ceases to amaze me.
De’maicho has a contagious smile that will light up any room. His kindness never
fails to brighten up my day. After a long day at school, it’s nice to know I have a
smiling face waiting for me at Panther Place.
De’maicho told me that he likes coming to Panther Place and enjoys all the
activities. His favorite part of his school day is recess because he gets to play
basketball which is his favorite sport. He likes to draw and said that his older sister
taught him how to draw. Because De’maicho displays such wonderful character
traits and is a model student, we are proud to name him Panther Place’s October
student of the month.

Approve Appointee to the 2022-2023 District Evaluation Appeals Committee
Request to Approve Appointee to the 2022-2023 District Evaluation Appeals Committee from Derisa Hindle, Director of Personnel
Rationale
The state regulations on the evaluation of certified personnel, KRS 156.557 and 704 KAR 3:345 require the local board of education to appoint its representative to the Local Evaluation Appeals Panel.
As part of our district's evaluation process, an Evaluation Appeals Panel is established each year. This is an important element in the evaluation process; it ensures that our evaluation process and guidelines have been followed, and it provides a process to ascertain whether an employee has been fairly evaluated in his/her summative evaluation.
The Evaluation Appeals Panel is made of three members - all certified staff members. Two members of the three-member team are elected by the certified staff members in the district. The third member is appointed by the Board of Education.
The certified staff members have selected the following to serve on the panel for this school year:
The Board of Education is required to appoint the third member of the panel and an alternate. Mrs.Kelli Bush would like to suggest Mr. Chase Goff, Assistant Superintendent for Student Learning, to serve as the Appeals Panel member and Mr. Travis Gay, Director of Student Services, to serve as the alternate.
