[0:02] For north for Justice and high school clay target team presentations, faculty?
[0:09] Good evening.
[0:10] Board of Education. Thank you, thank you very much for having us.
[0:13] As you present our proposal to establish the clay target team in north for Justice and High School.
[0:19] My name's H. H. Johnson. I'm the currently observer principal in North for Justice and High School.
[0:23] Tonight I will begin by sharing the conversation with you.
[0:25] The name of the board could be made and why we believe its an important opportunity for our students.
[0:28] following Mark's baller shape and Mr. Stephen Williams
[0:31] are school-eated on to provide more detailed overview of the performance of the program.
[0:36] Find the presentation of Mr. Jason White,
[0:38] that's the coach and the rest of the team we haven't been able to answer any questions.
[0:42] So now let's begin.
[0:44] Because if not, I would have had an uninterested proposal tonight.
[0:46] I kept going back to the very first core value
[0:48] for just the county public schools.
[0:50] He just claimed it.
[0:51] Children first.
[0:52] Prioritizing each child needs in our society.
[0:55] That statement perfectly counters out the scene and tiredness of the game.
[0:59] This is not my idea.
[1:02] This is not the idea of an inability to stay in the portion of the night.
[1:05] This idea became from one of our students.
[1:08] Mastered by the government for an assault more than just a high school accident,
[1:12] would it be possible to start a play-hard team at our school?
[1:16] As someone who joins the outdoor myself, I immediately loved the idea.
[1:19] I also am doing a resource system that already established the successful teams, so I believe it was at least worth a score.
[1:26] I told Isaac that if he was able to develop a plan, and if you could find a staff member that was going to help the easy effort, he would have my full support.
[1:34] Now, I'll be honest, while I was supporting the idea, I wasn't convinced it would actually happen. There were simply just too many options.
[1:41] Fortunately, the shaper stepped forward without hesitation.
[1:44] A few months later, by attending a community event,
[1:47] a political leader approached me and asked if I had told him,
[1:49] I'm sorry this is a school.
[1:51] I'm knowing that we are already begun to start complaining.
[1:54] Another community event, another local leader supported the idea.
[1:57] Each conversation carried the same essence.
[1:59] Our community wanted to see this happen.
[2:02] Meanwhile, the shaper rises and identifies with the students,
[2:05] and continues to build their room.
[2:07] They attended the outdoor shows south of Rochester, the gay community interests.
[2:11] The forest program had even officially existed, our community was already investing in our students.
[2:16] Since then, that momentum has only continued to grow.
[2:19] We hosted a student interest meeting where sheriff's skills to spoke with our students about our safety,
[2:24] responsibility, and sportsmanship on expressing the support of the initiatives.
[2:28] The player we hosted at the community interest meeting that brought together families, supporters, and local stakeholders.
[2:32] and today we have received more than $15,000 in donations with additional pledge
[2:37] contributions the way you're approval of this program. That I will support
[2:42] speaks for itself. I began tonight by talking about the first core value or
[2:46] strategic plan that as an initiative has grown I realized that it replaced
[2:50] every one of our district's core values because it's out of all the stories.
[2:56] That was things of student. Engagement, that other student finds
[2:59] play through traditional athletics, some connect with music, and others in other ways,
[3:05] and some connect to the outdoors.
[3:07] Clay Tart team gives another group of students an opportunity to proudly represent
[3:10] going to a festival high school.
[3:12] Access.
[3:14] Many students have already experienced without the words or sports in their families,
[3:18] but they have not had it.
[3:19] The opportunity to represent their school while doing something that they love.
[3:23] This program creates that opportunity not only for today's students,
[3:26] but for generations of students to come.
[3:28] Joy. This program celebrates something that's deeply rooted in the culture and
[3:33] heritage of Rochester County. It's recognized as an interest to many students and
[3:37] it creates another source of positive days for Rochester County Public Schools.
[3:42] Accountability. This program has been developed with fiscal responsibility in mind.
[3:47] It'll be self-funded through donations and fundraising, no operating funds for
[3:51] Rochester County Public Schools are being requested, but perhaps more importantly,
[3:55] This program teaches discipline, responsibility,
[3:59] sportsmanship, respect, and above all safety.
[4:03] At its heart, this proposal is about far more than
[4:06] ahead of shooting.
[4:07] It's about listening to our students.
[4:09] Creating opportunities, strengthening
[4:11] partnership with our community, and helping more students
[4:14] find a place where they belong.
[4:16] But as I said, thank you for your time and your
[4:18] consideration and your continued commitment to
[4:20] work with those kind of public schools.
[4:22] This time I would like to invite you to
[4:23] valid sheet for students to be willing to share this with me about the close play card.
[4:40] Okay.
[4:52] Just wanted to make sure I wasn't shared with you.
[4:55] Okay.
[4:55] So my name is Valerie Shaffer and this is Mr. Shaffer.
[4:57] You can go ahead and share this with me.
[4:59] I have worked with the students in trying to promote the play card team.
[5:05] I would love to recognize at this time the volunteers who are going to give their time
[5:12] to coach if this program is off the ground. They have done a lot of the laywork to help these students
[5:17] and to promote it within the community and to get a facility for the students to shoot if this
[5:26] project is allowed. So, Jason White is a Dortester County native, Jeremy Hughes, a Dortester County
[5:36] He is not here. I apologize. Well, Harper is also a
[5:41] participant in the ego. He is actually a member of the school with the swipe of the swipe.
[5:46] So he apologizes that he can't be here. First pal also a participant in the ego.
[5:51] His wife is the guidance counselor for our elementary school.
[5:56] And you should help. Well, Taylor,
[6:02] be a Cooper.
[6:03] So, between these gentlemen, they hold the following certifications already.
[6:09] Maryland EMT, CPR Navy, Certified, National Rifle Association, Chief Reader Safety Officer,
[6:16] National Rifle Association, Certified Shack Uninstructor, National Rifle Association,
[6:29] NRA, Pistol Instructor, NRA, who Firearms Safety, Maryland DNR, Hunter Education, Firearms
[6:36] Instructor, National, Rakeless Information, Firearms Instructor, Certified Rage CDL, Firearms
[6:44] Instructor, with over 30 years of experience and handgun, Rakeful, Shotgun Use, and MSB
[6:49] Certified Handgun Instructor.
[6:51] That in itself is a wealth of knowledge.
[6:55] It is our passion as a group to spread the firearm safety to the next generation to hopefully
[7:00] North Rochester High School's play target team.
[7:03] Cali Studies have shown students who participated score activities in the wealth of benefits
[7:08] to our academic, self-esteem, and future careers.
[7:11] But not everyone can play a musical instrument.
[7:14] This amounts to my own same page.
[7:16] The play target team allows another avenue for these students, athletes,
[7:22] So, Mr. Thompson talked to how it came about with the students.
[7:27] One of the students here tonight, Jonathan, made a Facebook post.
[7:31] From that Facebook post, we received $5,000 in checks supporting the team.
[7:37] So, thanks to the students and Mr. Thompson and Dr. Thompson for allowing us to investigate and see if this will be
[7:44] We appreciate you guys.
[7:47] There are currently 13 schools in the state of Maryland,
[7:50] five of those on Eastern Shore.
[7:52] All of them have the same focus.
[7:55] Safety, fun, and marksmanship in that specific order.
[8:01] This will positively impact the school's ecosystem
[8:03] by increasing student engagement and retention.
[8:07] It provides academic and future benefits
[8:09] such as involvement in athletics, other.
[8:11] I'm
[8:14] sorry, I lost my spot.
[8:17] Often poorly, some higher GPAs and lower dropout rates, competitive shootings include
[8:23] at the collegiate level, provides opportunities for scholarships and demonstrates leadership.
[8:30] In time management, another component is teamwork and camaraderie.
[8:36] Students build lasting friendships and learn its workmanship within competitive team environment.
[8:41] Mental and personal development are key components in athletes developing focus and discipline
[8:48] a sense of calm and patience often using techniques similar to mediation to improve accuracy
[8:57] self-confidence and resilience is built through the sport offering a sense of accomplishment
[9:02] and teaching them to preserve through challenges participants learn about safety, discipline
[9:09] and consequence of their actions bolstering maturity.
[9:13] Shooting sports improve singing on and strength,
[9:16] specifically in the core arms and back.
[9:18] They also refine hand-eye coordination.
[9:21] Unlike many team sports, shooting allows individual to excel
[9:25] based on personal commitment rather than physical size.
[9:29] The mental pressure of competition teaches emotional control
[9:33] that can transfer in academics and into their personal life.
[9:36] The focus on safety, respect, and responsibility provides
[9:41] transferable skills for adults.
[9:43] Shooting sports such as traps, seat, and rifle positively affect
[9:47] student athletes by cultivating mental discipline, focus,
[9:50] and emotional control.
[9:53] They foster self-confidence, personal responsibility,
[9:57] and safety awareness while improving physical still and
[10:01] being the eye coordination balance and fine motor skills.
[10:05] These are just a few examples of college scholarships available to student athletes.
[10:11] One of my biggest go-to people in this early is by Queen Anne's County head coach Nathan Pouch.
[10:16] He was supposed to be here tonight, however, his son is still streaming at the National Championship,
[10:21] so he is still out there.
[10:26] He has provided us with so much guidance and has done a welcoming information.
[10:30] He's estimated that Queen Anne's time in high school has secured $20,000 to $30,000 in scholarships for their student athletes.
[10:39] In the class of 2025, the Bay of Truet is attending Colorado State University on a full ride.
[10:45] Lily Dean is attending Washington College on the collegiate scholarship for shooting.
[10:51] The class of 26, Nicholas Cole Coppage and Eric Grant both have committed to Washington College with collegiate shooting
[10:59] as their sport. So, where most sports is a 2.0 GPA air hire, as a group meeting with Principal
[11:10] Thompson, this is a lot more responsibility. So, some of us wanted it as a 3.0 air hire.
[11:20] So we came into another agreement as a 2.5 air hire GPA for this specific sport because
[11:25] of the responsibility, all others, all other requirements will be the same as any other
[11:30] sport. Community visibility and support are key factors for the program to be successful.
[11:37] All non-student staff members must focus on developing athlete, athlete qualities, including
[11:43] leadership, initiative, fine judgment, and good citizenship. The school is responsible
[11:50] for approving a head coach as we have done so choosing Jason White to lead our team.
[11:55] The school will require backgrounds for all churches and volunteers, safety from the
[12:01] marksmanship, again top priorities in that order.
[12:06] Volunteer, state-approved hunter education instructors or certified firearms and
[12:10] structures are considered highly qualified to be a part of the Christian staff.
[12:15] The league is an established and experienced not experimental.
[12:20] It provides rules, insurance, framework, and operating operational guidance, while one
[12:27] of the main concerns for parents with children's sports is safety.
[12:32] Each year millions of student athletes are injured while playing high school sports.
[12:36] Play target shooting sport, however, is the safest high school sport nationwide.
[12:41] The National Federation of State High School Association supports the high school sports-related
[12:47] injury surveillance study.
[12:49] Since 2005-2006 year, the National and High School
[12:54] and Sports Related Injury Surveillance Study has
[12:56] mounted injuries among high school and student athletes.
[13:01] What about the injuries in play, Carvee, you're wondering?
[13:03] There's the around.
[13:06] All student athletes must earn a firearm safety
[13:08] certification, where eye protection in hearing ear,
[13:12] abide by the strict policies and procedures,
[13:14] and every single practice for competition event requires
[13:17] I would encourage both the British safety officer, the ND coach, to supervise the student
[13:21] athletes.
[13:22] I'm so grateful to guys who just said, I said they were always inclined to use, okay.
[13:29] I
[13:34] was feeling bored with this when I read the documents that we're shooting at the time.
[13:39] Okay.
[13:40] Good morning, President.
[13:46] Hi, great to meet you.
[13:47] I don't get to go.
[13:49] All I have to say is I'm a much concerned press.
[13:53] $15,000.
[13:57] That's really impressive.
[13:58] And actually some of the channel is still out there having more approval.
[14:02] And so I even have a check in my pocket right now.
[14:05] That's nice to meet you.
[14:07] I like it.
[14:08] Yay!
[14:08] I was going to pull up this cheek here.
[14:15] I mean, I don't understand why.
[14:17] But the benefits.
[15:00] They would learn those things that would help them want to bring it on, but I mean, that would make it difficult for them to show these. So that makes you a bit different. Anyway, but yes, I was fully excited about it when I read it before. I've heard her a narrative too. You all wouldn't want me on your team. I've never shot a gun in my life, and I have people who are worse than I am more nation. So I have purchased but they won't be bad.
[15:33] I'm not going to be on in person.
[15:35] Thank you for your time.
[15:37] Thank you.
[15:37] And you're ready?
[15:38] That's the end.
[15:39] John, the knee.
[15:40] Yes.
[15:41] John, yes.
[15:42] Not nice.
[15:43] Oh.
[15:44] You're working.
[15:45] You don't have any point back there.
[15:49] What made you feel like everyone?
[15:51] I think that what the teachers mentioned said,
[15:54] when kids are able to advocate for themselves
[15:56] and advocate for their student population,
[15:58] in their school. I think that is such a great thing, and we adore just the kind of public schools when one kids advocate for themselves more.
[16:06] So what made you want to do this? I'm sorry, I'll put you in a spot, but this is a good thing.
[16:10] It's all good. I'm good friends with Isaac Dr. Burr and him and another student who told me about them wanting to do this.
[16:18] All year, I look forward to hunting with my friends. I look forward to getting in the woods. There's haven't I enjoyed more?
[16:26] They told me about this and I was like, you know, I'm just going to throw something up
[16:32] to see what the community thinks, see what people think.
[16:34] I put a post up because I know that's probably where most people are.
[16:40] It did more than I thought it would.
[16:42] I mean, as much as it would.
[16:46] A lot of people I thought wanted to see this happen.
[16:50] I think it'd be fun.
[16:51] I mean, my buddies just go down to the Denver Sporting Place, they're in the end all the
[16:56] time.
[16:57] We love going there.
[16:58] We don't like the price.
[17:00] It's a little pricey sometimes.
[17:02] We love going up there, and we love the camaraderie that I want to do better than you.
[17:08] I want to shoot more plays than you, and it's all part of it at the end of the day.
[17:13] It's fun.
[17:14] It's just something.
[17:15] And like Shazer said, it's not something that's dictated by your size or how your team does,
[17:21] it's dictated by you and how large you want to try to do something.
[17:26] I'd love to see it happen, and I think it's something that should be around more.
[17:31] It teaches many great things, it's something I think that would really benefit a lot of
[17:39] people in a lot of places to learn about something like this.
[17:43] Where you have to promise one thing I just talked to the gentleman and back from Eastern
[17:46] I worked with him and I was on a board over there. We got to get a state change
[17:55] All right, thank you so appreciate it
[18:05] We have not been back
[18:13] The organizer asked for the sponsorship paperwork and said, one, said, have board a crew book and they will be able to back the initiative.
[18:29] Thank you, Andy. Hi, that was impressive. A lot of research you could have read in the shape of probably for a couple of hours of research.
[18:37] that comes in more members because this does add a very minimal cost for the main insurance
[18:49] We need to add it first to add lightness of the wood action, and then we're going to go on it.
[19:01] Is there a second?
[19:03] There's a minute of choice.
[19:04] Okay.
[19:05] Okay. All right. Any discussion?
[19:08] Okay.
[19:08] On the other side.
[19:09] I'll leave our tree present.
[19:11] Is that okay?
[19:13] So we're going to add two items for board action.
[19:18] Yes.
[19:18] Seven out of five.
[19:20] Seven point out of five.
[19:23] Three points of view.
[19:25] Go on.
[19:26] Good.
[19:27] Denny.
[19:28] It's a warning.
[19:29] Are there some of that stuff in there?
[19:34] Okay.
[19:34] All right.
[19:35] This is your local.
[19:47] So that might encourage attendance for those hunters that like to be out.
[20:09] Okay, five point zero one public comment nine
[20:16] Section 6, consent agenda.
[20:18] Section 7, any discussion?
[20:25] All approved, say aye.
[20:27] Aye.
[20:28] The consent agenda has been passed.
[20:33] Item 4, action 7.01.
[20:35] Excuse me, please.
[20:37] Any comments?
[20:50] Yes, this is the first three, especially the education department.
[21:33] and I am sure that there is every neighborhood located there, and there are plenty of different environments and different decisions.
[21:39] So we are not trying to keep students in this position, because the people in this education sector,
[21:44] if there are resources around them and a lot of the things, especially the basement needs,
[22:20] I think it's more of us to come up with a yes directly from the federal language is not something that we can really adjust and continue to achieve.
[22:32] That then at some point somewhere, we can achieve the definition of meaning, make sure we have a sound.
[22:39] that because with the students isn't that everybody goes into the classroom and a general
[22:46] classroom is not the least restrictive environment friends and so while that language may make
[22:52] it sound like that we need to make sure that our language is somewhere in our policy says
[22:58] that while yes this is common. The whole line of says this must be represented in the
[23:03] just to come. The least restrictive environment is going to be where the student is able to get
[23:11] the maximum amount of education, which we are not seeing always in the general education
[23:15] classroom. It doesn't matter if that's what the fellow language says, what's best for our students
[23:21] is to be in a place where they can get the education and the attention and the services they meet and
[23:26] that is not always just because they're alongside the general education field.
[23:31] I think that's why I'm saying that's what I'm saying is depending on the individual child, right?
[23:37] So I'm not how to where we put that or how we put that in somewhere that is true.
[23:41] We could put a couple of assumptions here too, right at the end of where it says,
[23:49] alongside the non-disabled leaders in the general education classroom,
[23:53] to the maximum extent appropriate,
[23:55] and because they just need to run into saying what would be appropriate or how it would be
[24:01] to be able to go there until uploading to the end.
[24:05] Yeah, new team will work on it.
[24:07] Okay.
[24:09] All right, so it's approved.
[24:11] The first three to go to the second three.
[24:14] We have recommendations.
[24:15] We have recommendations.
[24:20] Okay.
[24:21] 7.02.
[24:37] So, our current approved Green Program is the American Green Company Program, the
[24:43] Ministry of Justice, not being involved in patients for a high quality of structural
[24:48] material, which is what it means to do I.M.
[24:51] Absolutely, we want you to start a new Green Program.
[24:55] Last year we did as well as needing to do a new HDMIM, but we also did, we also had about two-thirds of the elements which are saying that our org program had a new team.
[25:11] Last year we did pilot the CTA-9 program for the sales program next year.
[25:23] The feedback now is very good, they did not appreciate that program, that's what we're going to be talking about here.
[25:32] So at this point in time, we are making a recommendation to expand and we do something in the program through the credit board at New Year's Hill.
[26:47] And this is a really big, especially if you may have seen a professor,
[26:58] so to do this means that people who are musicians are trying to ask for a new success in working with them is really important.
[27:08] And you know, you might think that it's starting to start showing us something new, which, again in my opinion, it kind of starts from us.
[27:51] I'm going to be very honest to be honest, we already have a CLA foundation for the new system.
[27:59] And I am just going to announce the CLA foundation for the next class.
[28:04] Last year after the year, we wanted to have two programs plus CLA foundation for the next class.
[28:11] And if I may, I have three programs, one of them is
[28:15] one where you should provide an annual support
[28:18] which is just not going to be starting fees
[28:20] and try out new ones.
[28:22] I would encourage that I encourage
[28:24] or make a decision on which
[28:26] I think this is going to be a program
[28:28] that I think will show this thing
[28:30] to you more.
[28:32] I would encourage that I need one
[28:33] so that it's not going to be new.
[28:36] So that kind of,
[28:37] I will do a lot of that for when I need it
[28:41] So, based on that, the next step was the implementation of the program, which is all we have now
[28:48] reviewed by our staff, the other students, and the staff of the program, where they could point to this thing.
[28:55] And it just makes this happen. This is what we're going to do in case.
[29:00] If all we have, I just want to make sure I have a place that will be to see an SCE requirements that are out there.
[29:41] You're no longer allowed to do this, and you need to adopt a new program.
[29:47] I don't know if they will be called coming.
[29:49] I'll be honest with you.
[29:51] So if you do have the authority and your talents, you must give it up.
[29:56] Yes.
[29:57] They have the authority to tell us that we have to have an agent.
[30:01] The government have this not because the population is currently making a fire. It's off the list of the big areas in this room. It's too high to keep them. They can't tell us exactly that. The government has to make a change. But they could tell us to get rid of the program at the top. It doesn't mean. So we could not have a self-developed program. The state dictates. We have to have an AQI in it by the side. OK. Well then.
[30:30] I'm gonna ask for a hit, I'm just trying to figure out how they can determine the
[30:47] Hey, I'm a host and a predatory, you know, I did it, but I was in instructional materials.
[30:56] Aren't they at least 50 or more percent based on the teacher who is using them in front
[31:01] of a student?
[31:02] Yes.
[31:05] So, I would say, great, that's why I am in place like, let's just get program in place and
[31:11] That's a last-gen architecture.
[31:12] That makes sense.
[31:14] Thank you.
[31:17] Okay.
[31:18] All right.
[31:20] Yeah, we've had our emotion.
[31:22] And we've had our discussion all in favor of approving
[31:27] Hoaniflan.
[31:29] He say aye.
[31:33] I'll say aye.
[31:35] Yeah, yeah.
[31:49] Thank you.
[31:52] Thank you.
[31:53] Thank you.
[31:57] I guess the C is up to himself for me to ask who was the best we're meeting to have piping and insulation in place with him.
[32:12] Tell them to know.
[32:21] Hi.
[32:22] How are you doing?
