Item #l: President Bradley called the meeting to order at 6:35 p.m. by announcing a quorum.
Item #2: Consider a Resolution adopting the proposed salary scale for the Westlake Academy. Mr. Petty
told the Board that this salary scale will put the Academy salaries within 3% of the surrounding school
districts pay scale. Ms. Brizuela spoke regarding this item, telling the Board that this special meeting
was necessary because school will begin before the Board would adopt the budget that includes this

unanimously.
