1. High School Progress Reports: Delay in printing and
distribution.
The progress reports for this marking period were delayed. The delay with
the progress reports was due to Pinnacle. The information did not transfer to
Microsage. The progress reports were processed and printed. This concern will
be directed to the Instructional Technology Committee.
2. Royal Oak High School –School Store Update
The Business Department is concerned that the allotted space per student be

administration.
