Pencader slips in Special Meeting with a 1 pm start time? Trying to Disenfranchise Parents, Tax Payers?

This is getting pretty tiring.  Having supposedly completed FOIA training, you'd think these questions wouldn't arise...

Language of their latest meeting posting is below.
Here are the issues -

1. Did Pencader provide seven days notice? http://pencadercharter.net/busfin/ The meeting would have to be posted by 1 pm on October 26, 2012.  Unlike every other item on the website, one cannot see the posting date/time of this event. Thus, one could argue that it wasn't and the deletion of the posting info is intentional...

2. Why is Pencader posting a meeting with a 1 pm start time?  How is this convenient or even accessible to the general public or the parents of students? Delineating the location as "board room" simply confirms that it isn't, as the board room is a pretty small room in the school. 

3. Does Pencader intend to discuss board members in private or public?  Since board members are appointed and and not employed, most would not define the tenure of a charter school board member as protected under Executive priviledge.  Now, I can see that this is an additional action item under the general agenda, but already, I have heard from fellow tax payers that they understood the agenda to mean that the new board members would be discussed in executive.  In the very least - the Agenda is confusing.

A 1 p.m. meeting excludes teachers as well.

Oh, by the way, where's the "Board Room?" This year meetings have been held in the 2nd Floor Conference Room and in the cafeteria, but not so far in a "Board Room."

Did we ever find out the purpose of this meeting and what came of it?
