01'4-3 <br /> 1) 15 <br /> DESIGN <br /> The selection of architects and educational planners will be the <br /> responsibility of the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools. An educational <br /> specification committee will be formed to provide direction to the architects <br /> regarding the design of the facility. This committee will consist primarily <br /> of CHCCS staff members with appropriate community representation. Meetings <br /> will be open to OCS staff members to attend, listen to the discussions, and <br /> provide the committee with their reactions; however, OCS representatives will <br /> not be formal members of the committee. <br /> ENROLLMENT <br /> The superintendents will convene a committee to discuss program <br /> collaboration between the two school districts once a new superintendent has <br /> been appointed for the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools. Discussions in <br /> which the committee engages could extend beyond the programs which would be <br /> offered at the new high school. At this time it might be best to leave <br /> membership undefined because it could change depending upon the specific <br /> program areas being discussed. The superintendents could agree at a later <br /> date upon the appropriate membership with the understanding that both <br /> districts would be equally represented. It is important, however, for this <br /> committee to meet initially to determine the districts ' receptivity to <br /> allowing OCS students to enroll in the CHCCS district once the new high <br /> school is constructed. Recommendations might need to be made by the <br /> superintendents to their respective boards. <br /> TIMETABLE • <br /> After reviewing the feasibility of opening a new high school in 1995- <br /> 96, the Non-Binding.
