The committee made up of parents, teachers, principals, area director, union representatives, Citizen Advisory Council, and students was co-chaired by Ken Otero, Deputy Superintendent and Melissa Erickson, President of Hillsborough County PTSA. The committee met on five different dates and worked through ideas to support the statement: "How can the Public Schools of Hillsborough County provide for effective common teacher planning with as little impact as possible on the instructional day for students?"
