This project was originally approved by the Board of Education with 35 00:02:36,670 --> 00:02:41,950 under funding of $150,000 on April 23rd, 2018. 36 00:02:42,610 --> 00:02:49,070 After two bid postings and a responsible bidter has been selected with a low bid of $175,000. 37 00:02:49,490 --> 00:02:56,110 Staff requested to board approve increasing the budget for this project $275,000 using $25,000 38 00:02:56,450 --> 00:02:58,090 from the systemic contingency funds. 39 00:02:59,870 --> 00:03:03,990 This was presented at the Facilities Committee, the Facilities Committee voted to bring 40 00:03:03,990 --> 00:03:10,030 to the board with our blessing, are there any discussions or topics or additional information 41 00:03:10,030 --> 00:03:11,010 you need 42 00:03:15,740 --> 00:03:19,720 beyond our business meeting at our next business item and our next meeting? 43 00:03:21,830 --> 00:03:25,890 Okay, Mr. David Cox, recognition of Hurricane Floyd's shelter administrators. 44 00:03:26,330 --> 00:03:27,250 Thank you, Mr. Chairman. 45 00:03:27,870 --> 00:03:36,270 Yes, we spent years and years of not having any reason to open our schools up as evacuation 46 00:03:36,270 --> 00:03:44,470 Center for any shape, or form, but recently, it's almost a yearly occurrence. This year, particularly, 47 00:03:44,630 --> 00:03:50,830 it was impactful from Hurricane Florence, not so much from the wind, but as I'm sure you all know 48 00:03:50,830 --> 00:03:56,410 from the terrible floods, and before we could over that, Michael came along. And so the purpose 49 00:03:56,410 --> 00:04:06,230 for my comment tonight, we had a discussion item at our last HR meeting about what we could 50 00:04:06,230 --> 00:04:13,610 for some of the administrators who served for days and days over and above. Although I'm sure 51 00:04:13,610 --> 00:04:18,750 it's considered part of their job and many of you in here have been principles and have 52 00:04:18,750 --> 00:04:24,930 certainly served your term, but it seems as though this issue was particularly hard. 53 00:04:25,330 --> 00:04:33,450 So what I wanted to do is just take a moment and read the names of the administrators and the 54 00:04:33,450 --> 00:04:41,110 record. And in return for their efforts, we agree to give them a $100 gift certificate 55 00:04:41,110 --> 00:04:48,470 each. It's a small token, but nonetheless it is a token of appreciation that I hope that 56 00:04:48,470 --> 00:04:56,090 they will enjoy. And they also get a voucher for a day off if they choose to use it. 57 00:04:56,450 --> 00:05:01,690 So if you're bear with me, this would be there. We had 10 schools that were Hurricane evacuation 58 00:05:01,690 --> 00:05:10,210 Center's inner middle. That was under Robby Watkins Care.

Any discussion from the board? 96 00:08:47,490 --> 00:08:47,730 That's great. 97 00:08:48,670 --> 00:08:54,270 Yes, I'm wanting to again commend all those people who worked because it was a big sacrifice 98 00:08:54,270 --> 00:08:59,590 for them to leave their families even for one day and some of them were there for eight days. 99 00:08:59,590 --> 00:09:02,770 I just commend them for that. 100 00:09:03,550 --> 00:09:08,610 Also, the committee will be helpful enough to consider helping them in this little way. 101 00:09:09,070 --> 00:09:10,290 So, again, thank you again. 102 00:09:11,870 --> 00:09:12,670 Dr. Maxing. 103 00:09:13,270 --> 00:09:18,090 Mr. Chairman, Mr. Cox, I think there was some discussion too at that meeting regarding 104 00:09:18,090 --> 00:09:24,150 votes from food services and facilities that those professional staff, Ms. Morales, 105 00:09:24,150 --> 00:09:26,190 not in her head, also be included. 106 00:09:26,190 --> 00:09:33,570 So, that being the case that would increase the number from, I think Mr. Gardner, you compiled 107 00:09:33,570 --> 00:09:36,650 a total number, what did that come to? 108 00:09:41,940 --> 00:09:45,240 Yes, sir, it'd be approximately 97 total employees, 109 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:48,700 a dish on 42. 110 00:09:53,260 --> 00:09:55,320 Okay, any other discussion? 111 00:09:57,220 --> 00:10:02,040 You would mention also too that the food service and the maintenance, they did get over time 112 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,920 pay as well, did they not, 113 00:10:06,390 --> 00:10:07,750 people who were the, 114 00:10:07,750 --> 00:10:13,250 hourly wage earners did, but the professional staff who were supervisors did not, they would get a voucher. 115 00:10:13,550 --> 00:10:13,870 That's right. 116 00:10:14,010 --> 00:10:14,410 That's okay. 117 00:10:14,790 --> 00:10:15,530 We got that straight. 118 00:10:16,250 --> 00:10:16,990 Thank you. 119 00:10:17,310 --> 00:10:21,010 So it would be for the professional staff that did not receive compensation. 120 00:10:22,130 --> 00:10:22,150 Okay. 121 00:10:22,370 --> 00:10:23,470 Any other discussion? 122 00:10:24,730 --> 00:10:28,110 We'll also, I guess, just be on a business item at our next meeting. 123 00:10:28,430 --> 00:10:28,770 That's correct. 124 00:10:30,050 --> 00:10:30,430 All right. 125 00:10:30,430 --> 00:10:31,930 We'll move on then. 126 00:10:32,270 --> 00:10:32,510 All right. 127 00:10:32,570 --> 00:10:34,670 Next up is our financial reports. 128 00:10:36,350 --> 00:10:37,010 Mr. Gardner. 129 00:10:37,010 --> 00:10:48,970 E6 financial administration. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In your packed information, you have a copy of the financial report for the period ended September 30, 2018. 130 00:10:49,550 --> 00:10:52,490 There's any questions I'll be happy to address those. 131 00:10:54,500 --> 00:10:55,320 Any questions? 132 00:10:57,050 --> 00:11:05,050 collect a valuable mill graph. That means here today we budget a value of a 133 00:11:05,050 --> 00:11:08,610 mill is currently the 134 00:11:12,350 --> 00:11:19,970 value of one mill for a general fund is 1,569,929. We've 135 00:11:19,970 --> 00:11:25,690 collected basically the value of 55,341 year to date and again you got to 136 00:11:25,690 --> 00:11:31,410 member that come to charge of our tax collections occur in December in January, so that's 137 00:11:31,410 --> 00:11:36,120 why these numbers are always low at this again at the point of time. 138 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:36,720 You welcome. 139 00:11:37,380 --> 00:11:42,220 Mr. Gardner, one of the observations I had had on page 21, which deals with the Food Service 140 00:11:42,220 --> 00:11:49,340 Fund, as well as page 23, that deals with the student or the people activity funds, 141 00:11:49,780 --> 00:11:54,640 it seems like we're running, I guess, differently than we've run in the past, in particular, 142 00:11:54,640 --> 00:12:04,180 All of the profit law statements by school for food services are negative at the high school level and probably three-fourths of the other schools are negative as well 143 00:12:04,180 --> 00:12:08,400 And you gave me an explanation earlier, but would you mind sharing that with the full board? 144 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:09,480 Yes, Mr. James. 145 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:14,900 Dr. Maxis said previously, it seemed like we missed more days of school than we'd actually been in 146 00:12:14,900 --> 00:12:17,520 And so we did continue to pay employee salary. 147 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:23,800 So that's why there's a decrease in profit at the food service area because we were still 148 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,660 paying employees, we're out of school and that's we didn't have to grab a new company in. 149 00:12:28,780 --> 00:12:33,720 And I assume that same rationale applies for the people activity fund where we had a 150 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,940 significant dollar amount budgeted, but our actuals are very little compared to the budget. 151 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:44,280 That is correct also. Roughly 10%. Any other questions from the board? 152 00:12:49,310 --> 00:12:49,950 Thank you Mr. Gardner. 153 00:12:51,210 --> 00:12:56,130 Okay, we'll move on to OE-8, communicating with the board, Mr. General. 154 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:05,440 Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Within that letter, you will find 180 00:15:10,420 --> 00:15:21,300 hyperlinks that will take you to a variety of places as far as information is concerned. You will also find links near the end of the letter 181 00:15:21,300 --> 00:15:36,180 that go to an index, that connects to folders that contain the documentation necessary for completing the superintendent evaluation in accordance with board governance. 182 00:15:36,940 --> 00:15:50,540 So I wanted to just highlight from the pertinent board governance policy, BSR5, Superintendent Accountability, the board considers superintendent performance to be linked to organizational performance. 183 00:15:50,540 --> 00:16:04,340 organizational accomplishment of the board's results policies and operation according to the values expressed in the board's operational expectations policies will be considered successful superintendent performance. 184 00:16:05,260 --> 00:16:12,520 These two components define the superintendent's job responsibilities and are the basis for the superintendent's performance evaluation. 185 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:19,380 Each November, the board will conduct a formal, summative evaluation of the superintendent. 186 00:16:20,100 --> 00:16:25,520 The summative evaluation will be based upon data collected during the previous academic year 187 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:29,740 from the monitoring of results and operational expectations and policies. 188 00:16:29,740 --> 00:16:34,580 per of the format that was agreed upon previously. 189 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:40,480 The documentation is located in a Google Drive, 190 00:16:41,220 --> 00:16:45,560 for which all of you will have access by clicking on the links, 191 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,080 the aforementioned links for Superintendent evaluation. 192 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:54,400 We also included an instructional video that provides directions on how 193 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,140 to access that information in the event that you have questions. 194 00:16:58,140 --> 00:17:05,700 Furthermore, we have added a set of written directions that you may also reference to look at those documents. 195 00:17:06,620 --> 00:17:09,600 It is a tremendous amount of information. 196 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:18,880 And as I note in the cover letter, that most of the instances, the documentation, these are exemplars. 197 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:25,000 And if you need additional information, we certainly will provide that information to you. 198 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:37,380 What I would ask that you do as soon as possible is to open that letter that's attached to the email from Ms. Oates. 199 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:50,340 And if you have any issues in assessing the information, please let us know and we'll get straightforward promptly to you to make sure that you have access to those documents. 200 00:17:51,780 --> 00:17:58,280 Dr. Maxi, I have attempted to, since we spoke earlier, I have attempted to connect with the 201 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:05,420 link and I'm unable to, but it might be because I'm not logged in with my Google user name. 202 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:11,280 So I don't know if everyone understands, but we now have in addition to our name at 203 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:18,220 the county schools dot net. We also have a Google account, which is our name at g dot 204 00:18:18,220 --> 00:18:23,280 or county schools dot net. So I think if we log in with that user ID, we'll be able 205 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,240 to access it. Mr. James, that is correct. 206 00:18:26,360 --> 00:18:31,280 In for instance, I'll just use mine as an example. My email address for 207 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:55,860 county schools is R maxi at or ecountyschools.net. We are a Google school district, so to speak, and that we have a Google permeating our system using all of their office suite so that our students have access to that. And as a result, we have everybody has a Google account. 208 00:18:55,860 --> 00:19:04,700 So, the way that you access your Google account would simply be to go to a Chrome browser, which is the Google web browser, 209 00:19:05,260 --> 00:19:11,800 and if you click on the little box of squares or just for Gmail, it'll prompt you to enter your user ID, 210 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:20,920 and your user ID is simply, in my case, R-Maxi at G4Google.org CountySchools.net. 211 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:25,940 And then you use the same password that you normally use to log in for ORE County Schools. 212 00:19:26,620 --> 00:19:33,920 And again, if anybody has any problems, access in the information, just let me, or hiding 213 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:39,270 no, and we will get you connected so that you can do that. 214 00:19:41,630 --> 00:19:44,330 Dr. Maxi, you're still up with our superintendent's report. 215 00:19:44,730 --> 00:19:45,710 Yes, sir, Mr. James. 216 00:19:46,490 --> 00:19:51,290 And as Ms. Minerick pointed out, I warned her in advance when it came to college career and 217 00:19:51,290 --> 00:19:58,230 readiness that she better not feel my thunder because we have some really good information 218 00:19:58,230 --> 00:20:04,610 to share with you about our students' performance over this past year and largely looking 219 00:20:04,610 --> 00:20:09,250 at our graduating class of 2018. 220 00:20:11,150 --> 00:20:19,210 So, you know, a few weeks ago, Mr. Washburn came up and shared with you the very positive 221 00:20:19,210 --> 00:20:30,210 results that we also had in K through 8 and looking at our SC ready and SC pass, outperforming 222 00:20:30,210 --> 00:20:35,550 the state and likewise we're doing a great job with these national assessments. 223 00:20:35,930 --> 00:20:40,270 So we're so proud of the work that our teachers and principals are doing with our students. 224 00:20:40,850 --> 00:20:47,370 We have high expectations in Oregon and you know our slogan is inspiring possibilities. 225 00:20:47,370 --> 00:20:55,510 And I firmly believe that that's why our folks out there are doing and we have some data here to back that up. 226 00:20:56,370 --> 00:21:03,370 So Lucas is going to move with my response here and we'll just start first of all by looking at the SAT composite. 227 00:21:04,330 --> 00:21:13,890 The SAT composite score a few years ago that they changed it again, but they're back now to the 1600 scale. 228 00:21:13,890 --> 00:21:20,570 And what you have in front of you is a bar graph that looks at the performance by the nation, 229 00:21:20,870 --> 00:21:30,210 the state, and the district, and that ERW is evidence-based reading and writing, which accounts 230 00:21:30,210 --> 00:21:37,390 for half the score up to 800 points and the math in the next set of bars. 231 00:21:37,390 --> 00:21:45,490 But, critically, looking here, you can see that the nation's average was 1049, the state's 232 00:21:45,490 --> 00:21:50,110 average was 1064, and Oric County Schools was 1095. 233 00:21:50,710 --> 00:21:51,850 That's a good feeling. 234 00:21:52,510 --> 00:21:58,590 That is a tribute to the hard work of our students and our teachers getting ready for that 235 00:21:58,590 --> 00:21:59,370 college assessment. 236 00:21:59,730 --> 00:21:59,930 Good. 237 00:21:59,930 --> 00:22:00,070 Good. 238 00:22:00,070 --> 00:22:00,230 Good. 239 00:22:01,950 --> 00:22:02,190 Good. 240 00:22:02,910 --> 00:22:11,610 here we have a breakdown as I mentioned just a moment ago the SAT folks changed the 241 00:22:11,610 --> 00:22:17,810 format and after the 2016 administration so the only years that we can make 242 00:22:17,810 --> 00:22:24,950 a comparison currently are with the last year and the year prior 2017 and 2018. 243 00:22:26,150 --> 00:22:31,630 Slight did it for us but still as noted in the previous slide we are way beyond 244 00:22:31,630 --> 00:22:39,530 state and the nation as far as the average is concerned. Next slide Lucas. Here we have our 245 00:22:39,530 --> 00:22:45,670 senior scores on each of the components of the ACT, which is another college entrance exam 246 00:22:45,670 --> 00:22:53,610 and the composite score is on the far right. If you look at our performance, there was a slight 247 00:22:53,610 --> 00:22:59,870 dip there but that also mirrors the dip. That was experienced at both the state and the national levels. 248 00:22:59,870 --> 00:23:01,730 Okay, the next slide, please. 249 00:23:02,610 --> 00:23:14,910 This line graph delineates the fours longitudinally, and you can see, in 2015, nation district 250 00:23:14,910 --> 00:23:23,990 state, we're all up higher there in the low 20s, and then in 2016, there's a significant 251 00:23:23,990 --> 00:23:27,370 drop in the district in the state. 252 00:23:27,830 --> 00:23:36,150 And the explanation for that is that in 2015, the state enacted to happen at that time 253 00:23:36,150 --> 00:23:44,650 that students in their third year of high school, every student in the third year of high school 254 00:23:44,650 --> 00:23:45,790 would take the ACT. 255 00:23:46,650 --> 00:23:52,950 So that explains the drop there because we had a large increase in the number of students 256 00:23:52,950 --> 00:24:00,110 who took the task, which you can see in looking at the district, we are remaining above the 257 00:24:00,110 --> 00:24:03,930 state, but basically tracking with the state today. 258 00:24:04,090 --> 00:24:10,370 Now, this past year, just as a footnote, when we talk about this next year, the students 259 00:24:10,370 --> 00:24:18,030 in their third year of high school were able to take either the SAT or the ACT, so it will 260 00:24:18,030 --> 00:24:21,210 be interesting to see how those results turn out. 261 00:24:21,210 --> 00:24:23,870 Thanks to the next slide, please. 262 00:24:24,370 --> 00:24:28,990 This is looking at changes over time in terms of test takers. 263 00:24:29,110 --> 00:24:33,230 You go back to 2013, really 2013 through 2015, 264 00:24:34,450 --> 00:24:37,870 SAT and ACT are tracking pretty closely. 265 00:24:38,650 --> 00:24:41,710 But then you see again, like I said, in 2016, 266 00:24:43,030 --> 00:24:47,410 that third year high school score is reported in 2016. 267 00:24:47,410 --> 00:24:56,210 So we have more students taking the ACT, that's why junk from 952 and 252 to 2658. 268 00:24:57,730 --> 00:25:11,190 But you can see also that's the number of participants from the ACT for the last few years has outgrown the SAT. 269 00:25:11,190 --> 00:25:21,810 but moving in a positive trend for both of these are the highest numbers in the last six years as far as both of these college admissions tests are concerned. 270 00:25:21,810 --> 00:25:31,870 Okay, making a transition and advanced placement is also a college board program whereby 271 00:25:31,870 --> 00:25:39,830 students enroll in highly rigorous and challenging courses in high school and at the conclusion 272 00:25:39,830 --> 00:25:46,850 of the year, whatever that advanced placement course may be, they take an exam on a national exam 273 00:25:46,850 --> 00:25:51,930 day, and the students all over the country take those exams on the same day. 274 00:25:52,230 --> 00:25:57,550 Like US history, all the students across the country would take it on that given day and 275 00:25:57,550 --> 00:26:00,150 calculus on a given day. 276 00:26:00,750 --> 00:26:07,750 But if you score a three or above, it's on a five point scale, if you score a three, four, 277 00:26:07,770 --> 00:26:16,710 or five, a college or university is probably going to award you credit hours toward a college 278 00:26:16,710 --> 00:26:23,110 degree. So when you set out as an advanced placement student, what you want to do is to make sure 279 00:26:23,110 --> 00:26:29,270 that you score a three or above. And looking at this bar graph, you can see that Oregoniany 280 00:26:29,270 --> 00:26:38,490 schools seniors this past year, we had a passing average scoring three or higher of 66.1% 281 00:26:39,210 --> 00:26:44,950 which exceeds both the state and the nation as far as those test papers are concerned. 282 00:26:44,950 --> 00:26:47,930 by eight and nine percentage points, respectively. 283 00:26:49,090 --> 00:26:50,870 Go to the next slide, please, Lucas. 284 00:26:52,030 --> 00:26:55,730 And here is a really encouraging bit of information. 285 00:26:56,550 --> 00:27:00,690 And that information is that we have steadily increased 286 00:27:00,690 --> 00:27:05,150 the number of exams that are given that our students take, 287 00:27:05,490 --> 00:27:08,990 and yet our students performance on these exams 288 00:27:08,990 --> 00:27:11,190 has increased dramatically. 289 00:27:11,190 --> 00:27:24,050 So we're very proud of the work that those advanced placement teachers are doing with their students and of course the students bringing their best effort to the table too when they take the exams. 290 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:28,320 All right. 291 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:29,980 Go to the next slide. 292 00:27:30,220 --> 00:27:37,700 Another program that we have that is a prestigious academic program is the International Baccalaureate Program. 293 00:27:37,700 --> 00:27:49,860 We have the international baccalaureate, or is it frequently referred to as the IV program at two of our high schools in the district at Saucosti High School and at Aener High School. 294 00:27:50,960 --> 00:28:07,680 Aener and Saucosti High School did a great job with 78.4% of their students, seniors earning a four or higher on high level exams, which is equating to college credit, and 84.1 scoring a four or higher on standard level. 295 00:28:07,700 --> 00:28:09,420 exams. Next slide, 296 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:18,140 which is basically a repeat of the information. You've got to the next one. 297 00:28:18,980 --> 00:28:25,600 In looking at this chart, it shows the IB class of 2018 took a total of 102 high-level exams 298 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,300 and 63 standard level exam. 299 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:41,360 And that folks is something that this school district is very 300 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:48,560 educators and students, dedicating, dedicated to learning and improving themselves and preparing 301 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:55,160 themselves to compete, not only in Oregon, but across the state, the nation and the world. 302 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,360 So we're very proud of them. 303 00:28:58,940 --> 00:29:06,400 Next thing we'd like to share with you, making a transition, it's not an academic thing in 304 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:14,400 but it's something very impressive as for as the outpouring of support from organizations 305 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,060 to our schools following Hurricane Florence. 306 00:29:18,220 --> 00:29:21,420 So what I wanted to share with you is a short video here in just a moment. 307 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:26,800 If you'll hold it, put it on pause, Lucas, on October 26, 308 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:32,340 a national foundation, kids in need, along with Dollar General Literacy Foundation 309 00:29:32,340 --> 00:29:39,080 in scholastic books, surprise some students in Oregon, with three supplies, with donations 310 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:45,460 at Homewood Elementary, and also at Conway Elementary and Saucosti Elementary. The kids 311 00:29:45,460 --> 00:29:50,340 in needs foundation, the second responder program, is dedicated to providing school supplies 312 00:29:50,340 --> 00:29:55,680 to students and teachers following natural disasters. And as I tell you, when we began this 313 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,480 school year, one of the things that I want to be sure that we do is to share. 314 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:05,480 The good news of the stories that are occurring in ory county schools, and that's what we'd 315 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:10,520 like to do at this time.
