00:00:05,660 --> 00:00:32,920
Meeting everybody, it's 631 KM on June 16. I'm my priority. I will call the school committee to order. And as usual, we will move directly to our public comment period. This is not a time for discussion or deliberation with the school committee. It is a time to express your opinions or raise questions about matters within the authority of the school committee. If the matter is on tonight's agenda, the committee will take it under consideration during deliberations and refer matters to the superintendent on a appropriate.

2
00:00:33,620 --> 00:00:37,920
comments made during the public comment portion of the meeting do not necessarily reflect

3
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:42,620
the views or positions of the Belmont School Committee. When making a comment please direct

4
00:00:42,620 --> 00:00:46,300
your questions and comments to me as chair, keeping them to less than two minutes, people will

5
00:00:46,300 --> 00:00:51,120
have one opportunity to see. If I'm here in comments that echo the same sentiment on one matter,

6
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,740
I will ask whether there are attendees with comments on a different matter who would like to speak

7
00:00:54,740 --> 00:01:01,420
this evening. Additional comments and questions can always be emailed to SCFLmontSchools.net.

8
00:01:01,420 --> 00:01:07,680
And as usual, I will begin with people who are here in person who would like to make a

9
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:08,280
public comment.

10
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:12,740
If you could please just sign your name for the minute take care before you begin that would be

11
00:01:12,740 --> 00:01:13,480
super helpful.

12
00:01:18,370 --> 00:01:21,070
And then I will turn to remote attendees for those of you who have your answers.

13
00:01:29,180 --> 00:01:29,340
Yes.

14
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:30,040
Sorry.

15
00:01:31,780 --> 00:01:31,860
Hi.

16
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:32,220
Hi.

17
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:37,400
to get you to check our event, a Belmont resident, and a parent for the kids student.

18
00:01:37,740 --> 00:01:40,620
Speaking today, it's written to the attention of the unhealthy teaching of learning

19
00:01:40,620 --> 00:01:41,080
conditions.

20
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,980
The district is particularly at the bread bank, the bread book, or in the queue, resulting from

21
00:01:45,980 --> 00:01:47,160
extreme to class temperatures.

22
00:01:48,580 --> 00:01:52,540
I'm also asking for your help in addressing this problem because it's not going to go away.

23
00:01:53,140 --> 00:01:56,880
Class 1 temperature is at the bread bank, which is extremely high level, throughout the spring

24
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:01,120
and early summer months, at times exceeding the outdoor temperature, and the opening

25
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,260
to be able to return on the fall.

26
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,620
These conditions are not only uncomfortable,

27
00:02:06,420 --> 00:02:08,380
but by everyone's students ability to concentrate

28
00:02:08,380 --> 00:02:09,900
in each and learn,

29
00:02:10,180 --> 00:02:11,720
who will make it more difficult for staff

30
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,280
to provide high quality instruction

31
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,300
to support our students deserve.

32
00:02:15,980 --> 00:02:17,020
Over the past four years,

33
00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:18,840
some measurements have been submitted

34
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,300
to help mitigate the heat,

35
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:21,400
including window tempting,

36
00:02:21,660 --> 00:02:23,060
large air conditioning units,

37
00:02:23,740 --> 00:02:24,560
on the top floors,

38
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,920
and a suggestion to use the module of classrooms,

39
00:02:27,740 --> 00:02:29,920
which they all appreciate these efforts,

40
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:32,060
that they do not adequately address the problem.

41
00:02:32,540 --> 00:02:36,420
For the past two years, our school is working with Principal Lisa Williams to communicate these

42
00:02:36,420 --> 00:02:37,000
concerns.

43
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:42,440
Who in House also met with the N email, said, let us direct our day of blazing a few times.

44
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,320
The other response has remained largely unchanged.

45
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,840
In fact, he was recently pulled over the Belmont voice saying, there is not much we can do.

46
00:02:50,180 --> 00:02:53,920
Teachers at the Burbank have the ability to temporarily delete, relocate, and their condition

47
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,860
space on particularly hot days.

48
00:02:56,860 --> 00:03:02,100
While in theory, relocation seems like an effective education strategy, and practice this

49
00:03:02,100 --> 00:03:06,660
option is not available or applicable for effective classrooms, as a result of many students

50
00:03:06,660 --> 00:03:10,460
and staff continue to spend school days in excessively following environments.

51
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,200
Staff have consistently submitted facilities for bus to document and bring attention to

52
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:20,080
these conditions, and most recent results have been created that the matter has been well resolved

53
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:25,300
permanently, because the buildings lack the infrastructure to support more substantial interventions.

54
00:03:25,300 --> 00:03:29,860
their response came without any opportunity or discussed possible solutions.

55
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,260
While we do understand there are limitations, temperatures, and many classrooms remain

56
00:03:34,260 --> 00:03:38,480
unacceptably high and it's not acceptable to conclude that there's nothing more

57
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:39,100
to be done.

58
00:03:39,700 --> 00:03:44,120
Last Friday we requested an immersive meeting with district leadership in resources,

59
00:03:44,620 --> 00:03:48,200
school committee representatives and facilities to discuss both the medium and long-term

60
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:48,840
solutions.

61
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:55,740
We appreciate the proper response from you, Ben Mori, who had paid in that many decisions regarding

62
00:03:55,740 --> 00:03:57,940
next steps we've come through the administration.

63
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,480
We also appreciate the personal response from that crowd and this willingness to meet

64
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,900
Ms. Jill guys are yesterday to express concerns.

65
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:10,800
However, while individual conversations have to in place, we are still awaiting a response

66
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:17,140
to our request for a broader meeting, stakeholders, and responsible who are responsible for

67
00:04:17,140 --> 00:04:18,140
addressing this issue.

68
00:04:18,140 --> 00:04:20,140
We will be proud of that together.

69
00:04:20,420 --> 00:04:27,220
We can identify back the solutions that better support both students and staff because our students deserve better.

70
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:27,720
Thank you.

71
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:29,360
Thank you.

72
00:04:45,220 --> 00:04:46,980
You've made my name a choice of unique.

73
00:04:47,260 --> 00:04:50,220
I have an English language and education teacher at Woodbrook.

74
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,180
And I'm going to read the nurse statement.

75
00:04:53,780 --> 00:04:56,380
Our nurse, Rebecca Berger from...

76
00:04:56,380 --> 00:04:58,540
Rebecca has written this that I've read.

77
00:04:58,540 --> 00:05:09,080
So I've heard of many elementary school, we have experienced unsafe elevator traffic tourists within our classrooms for many high temperature days during this academic year and during a prior year as well.

78
00:05:09,820 --> 00:05:18,800
As the school nurse, I have concerns about the health and safety of our students as evidence by the influx of visits and temperature-related illnesses are students with an experiencing.

79
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:24,100
The majority of the business to the health office of these high temperature days are heat related.

80
00:05:24,700 --> 00:05:28,220
And the in plus of students needing medical support and attention to significant.

81
00:05:29,140 --> 00:05:37,840
For example, there are students coming for a business to the health office from their classroom sweating, red based, and with elevated body temperatures while at rest.

82
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:43,000
Students may present with non-dehydration or appetite or low energy.

83
00:05:43,580 --> 00:05:48,520
I have had to dismiss students from school due to heat related concerns with internal body temperatures.

84
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,780
as high as 99.5 degrees.

85
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,140
While we are seeing a profound effect

86
00:05:53,140 --> 00:05:55,720
on our otherwise healthy students within our community,

87
00:05:56,060 --> 00:05:57,640
there is an even higher risk

88
00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,820
to those students and staff of product disease

89
00:05:59,820 --> 00:06:01,520
at heat sensitive health conditions.

90
00:06:02,260 --> 00:06:03,040
For these individuals,

91
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,100
it is even more dangerous to be exposed

92
00:06:05,100 --> 00:06:06,440
to these unhealthy temperatures

93
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,220
and potentially impacts their morbidity and mortality.

94
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,340
When we are not providing appropriate temperature control

95
00:06:13,340 --> 00:06:14,300
in our questions,

96
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:15,940
our classroom temperature readings

97
00:06:15,940 --> 00:06:17,400
are as high as 90 degrees.

98
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:23,200
Our students endure unnecessary suffering stress, both their physical well-being and academic

99
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:28,020
performance, their tax, resulting in the inability to learn at least days, educational

100
00:06:28,020 --> 00:06:29,000
based lost.

101
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,220
I hope that these statements from our community can help you to support our students and

102
00:06:33,220 --> 00:06:36,940
effort to decrease their accumulated suffering and learn vocations.

103
00:06:41,390 --> 00:06:45,670
I'll take one more in person and I'm going to move to take somebody on remote and I will

104
00:06:45,670 --> 00:06:46,730
come back to him first.

105
00:06:53,420 --> 00:07:02,060
I also feel better. I am a parent of a third grader at Vervaine and a sixth grader at the group.

106
00:07:02,940 --> 00:07:08,160
I would like to talk about Chief Stroke. Everyone seems to be discussing this,

107
00:07:08,180 --> 00:07:15,740
but it's a comfort issue. Chief Stroke can be fatal. And we're not doing anything about it and it's

108
00:07:15,740 --> 00:07:20,560
acceptable. My kid has come home with all of these symptoms.

109
00:07:22,300 --> 00:07:25,860
Hey, nausea, raise a bite from the jerk, lots of appetite.

110
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,360
Love her, Jennifer, the rest of the day.

111
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:29,400
Melee, bye.

112
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:50,620
This was also 89 degrees at 7.35 a.m. on Monday. How are they supposed to exist in that environment? It's totally unacceptable.

113
00:07:53,020 --> 00:08:00,740
the statement from the nurse about seeing more kids, she's not seeing enough kids because my

114
00:08:00,740 --> 00:08:07,480
kid is only seen by the nurse when I'm creatively call the school and test the teacher and say,

115
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:12,740
he's going to need to see the nurse today because it's too hot and then he takes the nurse and say,

116
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:18,400
I want to be notified when he's there so that I can come to the test because other than that,

117
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,700
He hasn't been seen by the nursing, just comes home,

118
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,340
nauseous, unable to eat with a headache

119
00:08:25,340 --> 00:08:27,340
and elevated body temperature.

120
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,960
So I'm leaving the school with him,

121
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,680
but when he is finally sent home by her,

122
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,540
I love by the other third grade rate in class,

123
00:08:36,620 --> 00:08:39,460
and I can pick out five or six students

124
00:08:39,460 --> 00:08:43,080
with the right red face, they should be seen by the nurse.

125
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,460
It's not just that, you need to be cooling the building.

126
00:08:46,460 --> 00:08:53,680
You need to be giving education about each stroke and student exhaustion and what to do about this, because our teachers

127
00:08:53,680 --> 00:09:01,640
can't be the ones that are standing between the students and the light of red and the massive medical

128
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,720
is the urgent condition.

129
00:09:06,060 --> 00:09:07,400
It's not comfort.

130
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:09,940
It's very, very serious.

131
00:09:09,940 --> 00:09:24,360
and I don't know this, because I grew up in Fresno, California, where we have from May to September and Tribal Digents, and so every single person that works with the student knows that right face, we take action, we put them in an air conditioned space.

132
00:09:25,180 --> 00:09:35,080
That's because our outside planning, if you're inside a 90 degrees or hours and hours, you go outside where it's even hotter and you're active, where are you getting right?

133
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:47,000
This is an issue with heated exhaustion, living to heat stroke, is that it's the prolonged exposure that is the issue, and these kids at Burbank, they have no break, aimer.

134
00:09:47,700 --> 00:09:55,160
So, I have implemented a portal for my student, which is if it's already in the class for Michael Getham, and he's not staying there.

135
00:09:55,860 --> 00:10:04,680
But the other students don't have that, parents will heat exposure experience to be able to implement that, and the schools not doing it.

136
00:10:05,460 --> 00:10:10,840
We're going to have an emergency situation that y'all are going to be vital for and we all have the emails.

137
00:10:11,380 --> 00:10:17,920
So that's just what it's going to be. And please, please, you need to do something.

138
00:10:25,450 --> 00:10:26,490
Ms. Pond.

139
00:10:28,230 --> 00:10:29,370
Hi, can you hear me okay?

140
00:10:29,930 --> 00:10:32,310
We can. Thank you. Just identify yourself this.

141
00:10:32,490 --> 00:10:37,190
Sure. My name is Nicole Pond. I've been a teacher in the district for 27 years.

142
00:10:37,190 --> 00:10:46,070
Good evening, everyone. I'd like to address the extreme heat conditions in our older school buildings and the continued impact they are having on both students and staff.

143
00:10:46,890 --> 00:10:56,570
For many weeks at the beginning and end of every school year, classroom temperatures routinely range between 80 and 90 degrees such as last week and Monday.

144
00:10:57,250 --> 00:11:02,430
Under these conditions, teaching effectively becomes nearly impossible and learning becomes equally difficult.

145
00:11:02,430 --> 00:11:08,150
We expect students to focus, participate, and perform while sitting in classrooms that feel more like

146
00:11:08,150 --> 00:11:09,750
saunas than learning environments.

147
00:11:10,310 --> 00:11:12,210
The district's response has been inadequate.

148
00:11:12,850 --> 00:11:16,470
Many of us have been forced to spend our own money on fans and other measures.

149
00:11:16,990 --> 00:11:22,070
Hours upon hours in that classroom environment makes for challenging times, and while students,

150
00:11:22,390 --> 00:11:24,690
sometimes can be dismissed, teachers cannot.

151
00:11:25,470 --> 00:11:29,770
While I understand these extreme temperatures are generally weeks in September and June,

152
00:11:29,770 --> 00:11:36,010
that accounts for 10 to 20 percent of learning time in a school year. We cannot ignore the impact of this.

153
00:11:36,450 --> 00:11:40,730
In these times of the year that are historically hot, the district can plan for it. It's not a

154
00:11:40,730 --> 00:11:45,650
surprise. The financial impact of running air conditioning machines is not something that would

155
00:11:45,650 --> 00:11:50,690
happen for the full school year. New England is known for their historic buildings and there are ways to

156
00:11:50,690 --> 00:11:56,130
cool them. Experts have found solutions and while the district might not think that it's cost effective.

157
00:11:56,130 --> 00:11:59,990
The return on that investment is children learning and teachers teaching.

158
00:12:00,630 --> 00:12:05,290
I too live in a house that's over a hundred years old and have invested in the system so they can

159
00:12:05,290 --> 00:12:06,670
cool my family properly.

160
00:12:07,650 --> 00:12:10,570
The fact that the problem is seasonal does not make it acceptable.

161
00:12:11,310 --> 00:12:15,150
Every student and staff member deserves a safe and productive learning environment

162
00:12:15,150 --> 00:12:16,910
regardless of the time of the year.

163
00:12:18,150 --> 00:12:21,530
We would never expect students to perform their very best under these conditions

164
00:12:21,530 --> 00:12:23,750
yet you continue to ask them to do so.

165
00:12:23,750 --> 00:12:30,090
We would never expect teachers to deliver high quality instructions in these temperatures yet you continue to demand it.

166
00:12:30,430 --> 00:12:38,070
The reality is that when classrooms reach above 80 degrees and beyond, meaningful teaching and learning just can't happen.

167
00:12:38,590 --> 00:12:47,590
I urge the district to establish a clear policy for extreme heat days, including early release days when classroom temperatures reach unsafe and unreasonable levels.

168
00:12:47,590 --> 00:12:53,630
At the district field, they somehow cannot adequately invest in the infrastructure to cool these buildings.

169
00:12:53,930 --> 00:13:00,430
It must take responsible and reasonable steps to protect the health safety and well-being of our students and staff.

170
00:13:01,010 --> 00:13:03,630
It's not a comfort issue. It's a safety issue.

171
00:13:03,710 --> 00:13:09,490
It's an educational issue and it's a matter of providing an environment where students and educators can succeed.

172
00:13:10,430 --> 00:13:14,530
I invite all of you to come work on the third floor in my classroom on any of these days.

173
00:13:14,530 --> 00:13:22,650
Please come. I welcome you all. I want you to see the effect. Sit with my students. Deal with their behaviors. Try to teach them.

174
00:13:22,650 --> 00:13:23,130
It's fine.

175
00:13:23,450 --> 00:13:24,730
It's been 10 minutes.

176
00:13:25,950 --> 00:13:32,430
There are solutions. The district can take and I urge this community to stand behind these learning conditions. Thank you for your time.

177
00:13:32,990 --> 00:13:34,930
Thank you.

178
00:13:35,350 --> 00:13:38,790
As I might also make it like to make eight public comment and person.

179
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,960
There's anybody else who would like to make a public comment who is remote. These raise your virtual hands

180
00:13:52,380 --> 00:13:56,340
I seeing none then I will go ahead and close out that portion of tonight's agenda

181
00:14:01,380 --> 00:14:04,120
I don't have any adjustments to the agenda this evening

182
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:10,860
Zera. Thank you for joining. I just want to mark for the minutes that Zera joined at 636 p.m.

183
00:14:11,180 --> 00:14:17,680
Remote. I don't have any chairs for this evening. So I'll turn to you. Thank you. Just two things. One is

184
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:25,680
the graduations that I've been happening, congratulations to all students. I attended the lab graduation on June 4th.

185
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:33,380
It was great to see those students walk across the stage. And then of course our BHS graduation on June 6th, we graduated.

186
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,020
Most 400 students, 365.

187
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:39,420
Yeah, there you go.

188
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,240
So thank you to those staff and leadership

189
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:47,740
of course for making that ceremony run very

190
00:14:47,740 --> 00:14:49,880
smoothly and for Jim Boats for the

191
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,160
us down the time.

192
00:14:51,740 --> 00:14:51,800
Yeah.

193
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,560
I also want to talk a bit to the heat that was

194
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:57,820
brought up through public comments.

195
00:14:58,340 --> 00:14:59,920
First, I want to say health and safety is

196
00:14:59,920 --> 00:14:59,980
Okay.

197
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:11,940
Continues to be a priority for the district, and we are also want to see these kind of heat happening for students as they are trying to learn.

198
00:15:12,460 --> 00:15:22,000
That said, as was noted in the public comment and what Dave said in the last meeting, he did outside the outside outline the steps that have been taken that includes the endos.

199
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:28,680
specifically to the Burbank because that is that third floor is probably most impacted area in

200
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:34,480
our buildings. So the industrial air conditioning units that are in the hallways, those are

201
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:40,380
intended to lower the humidity on hot days, or not the the aim they can't completely cool the

202
00:15:40,380 --> 00:15:45,960
room rooms, but they can bring down the humidity custodians leave windows open as much as possible

203
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:51,000
overnight when it doesn't rain if it rains and that makes that a little more difficult and that

204
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:58,000
intended to cool down rooms. And then, of course, as was noted earlier, that teachers can

205
00:15:58,460 --> 00:16:02,280
where, especially when rooms are most impacted, have the option to hold their classes in the

206
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:09,240
mods, which have air conditioning. That said, we continue to seek solutions for trying to

207
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:15,480
in terms of trying to mitigate the impact of the heat. They did also talk a little bit about the

208
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:28,780
natural cost of putting air conditioning in in these old buildings and it is multiple millions of dollars to do that so if that is something that the town was interested in it would be that's where that discussion would be.

209
00:16:29,580 --> 00:16:45,460
And then the other piece is just some in terms of I know the question run window units have come up and the challenge there has to do with how to fit the windows that are in the buildings are not well equipped to handle a window.

210
00:16:45,460 --> 00:16:50,380
unit, I don't have details because Dave is one of that would be okay answer that question.

211
00:16:51,220 --> 00:16:56,680
I was just going to ask the question not about details about the strong window ACs because I

212
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:02,520
would not know that I got. But I hear that there is some reticence about using the mods because it

213
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:07,620
seems to me that would be a very good thing but we have heard just in the emails and also in

214
00:17:07,620 --> 00:17:12,420
public comment that this is somehow not feasible. Do you have any insights to why that that is not

215
00:17:12,420 --> 00:17:14,200
that's not a desirable alternative.

216
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,900
So yeah, well, I mean, first floor, first of all,

217
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,260
air conditioning, second of all,

218
00:17:18,260 --> 00:17:22,320
like it would seem like that is a good way to address this.

219
00:17:22,500 --> 00:17:23,560
I don't think I'm going to put things.

220
00:17:23,900 --> 00:17:26,420
Right, my understanding, I'm not sure if I have it.

221
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,900
But my understanding is that some of the classrooms

222
00:17:29,900 --> 00:17:32,280
don't want to be far away from the main part of the building,

223
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,280
part of the culture of the building and so forth.

224
00:17:34,860 --> 00:17:35,760
That's my understanding.

225
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,180
If there may be other reasons that I haven't heard,

226
00:17:38,380 --> 00:17:40,180
but that's something that I,

227
00:17:40,180 --> 00:17:51,180
And I only heard that it's been a while since I, I know at the beginning of the year this was brought up and teachers were offered to use the months even then and that's usually what would come up.

228
00:17:51,560 --> 00:18:02,060
But that said there may be other reasons that I have not heard right well maybe again it's something we can explore another time but if students are really in danger and I don't know enough to know if this is true.

229
00:18:02,580 --> 00:18:04,860
If this is a health and safety issue then it's just not option.

230
00:18:05,300 --> 00:18:08,280
teacher's just apt to lose. I mean, that's the issue.

231
00:18:12,300 --> 00:18:16,620
I'm just also note to that the point that was made earlier about recognizing

232
00:18:16,620 --> 00:18:20,500
heat exhaustion, that is something that we can certainly talk with teachers about, too.

233
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,160
Yeah, I'm just saying, if this is like we're not at the level of convenience,

234
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,260
we're at the level of health safety, we have space there that's air conditioning.

235
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:32,600
I also know, and I don't, again, I don't have heat details. I know the principles

236
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:38,620
generally speaking whenever teachers go to principles, talking about the heat and a rumor,

237
00:18:38,780 --> 00:18:45,120
any other conditions that maybe for a temporary relief, what they do is they do provide

238
00:18:45,120 --> 00:18:49,240
even if it's not an air-conditioning space, another cooler space in the building they do try to work

239
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:56,380
with teachers to find alternative spaces. If it's a day that their room is not.

240
00:18:56,380 --> 00:18:58,200
But, okay, thank you, I appreciate it.

241
00:18:58,200 --> 00:18:58,420
That's it.

242
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,240
You know, Jill, do you message it as a big topic?

243
00:19:03,360 --> 00:19:04,580
If I take a cup of tea.

244
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:04,860
Chomp on.

245
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,880
Do we have any hydration opportunities, you know,

246
00:19:07,980 --> 00:19:09,620
provide ice water or just ice,

247
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,120
so that they can add to their water bottle and water?

248
00:19:12,220 --> 00:19:14,780
Yeah, that's always available to students.

249
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,440
I've not heard of any cases where students don't have access

250
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:18,960
to water.

251
00:19:19,140 --> 00:19:20,640
I would say if that's the case,

252
00:19:20,740 --> 00:19:21,980
they should definitely go to the principal

253
00:19:21,980 --> 00:19:24,860
and report it there and then we would.

254
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:26,840
And a principal has challenges with that.

255
00:19:26,940 --> 00:19:28,080
We would submit this for them.

256
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:35,220
I'm suggesting being a high heat scenario, you know, making obvious, well, no, that

257
00:19:35,220 --> 00:19:41,060
kids should bring water or ice water or have ice provided as part of the supplement.

258
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:42,180
That's good.

259
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:43,420
Absolutely.

260
00:19:45,500 --> 00:19:46,660
So we're a little continued.

261
00:19:46,860 --> 00:19:47,580
We're kind of absolutely.

262
00:19:47,740 --> 00:19:48,720
Because it is definitely.

263
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:57,300
I would point to you consider, you know, whether it's calling school or should I have that.

264
00:19:57,300 --> 00:19:58,500
And that's a really good question.

265
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:03,280
I mean, it's the balance, the question of like,

266
00:20:03,540 --> 00:20:05,900
you're then reducing the learning time,

267
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,000
but then it's also hot in the room.

268
00:20:08,460 --> 00:20:10,640
So there's no temperature that we operate on,

269
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,620
nor should we operate have a hard temperature.

270
00:20:13,120 --> 00:20:16,320
But I have, I remember my first year,

271
00:20:16,660 --> 00:20:20,440
I did do early release for the non-air condition

272
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:21,320
bit of buildings.

273
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,020
And I want to say it was like up in the high 90s,

274
00:20:25,020 --> 00:20:29,780
on that day, if I remember correctly, but that was the only time I would recall.

275
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:43,860
I was searching quickly. I just find it right now, but the building study that was done.

276
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:50,980
I don't remember raising this issue in our buildings. I'm just curious how many years ago that was done.

277
00:20:51,380 --> 00:20:55,140
This is also right. This is headline in the Boston Globe today too.

278
00:20:55,140 --> 00:20:58,400
I mean, this is a problem, and temperatures are rising,

279
00:20:59,180 --> 00:21:00,780
and it is something that we need to deal with.

280
00:21:01,180 --> 00:21:04,060
And I'm concerned that it's not highlighted

281
00:21:04,060 --> 00:21:05,100
in that building study.

282
00:21:05,360 --> 00:21:07,180
And so what the town is looking at to fund right now,

283
00:21:07,180 --> 00:21:08,740
this is not even on their radar.

284
00:21:09,140 --> 00:21:11,700
Yeah, and I don't remember it even coming up

285
00:21:11,700 --> 00:21:14,900
in the conversations around it.

286
00:21:15,100 --> 00:21:18,400
I don't, and the conversations that I was in

287
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,580
was the same mostly the same ones you were

288
00:21:20,580 --> 00:21:22,020
and when they came and presented it.

289
00:21:22,020 --> 00:21:30,600
we had, I had a brief preview prior to that. So, but that's a good question. Yeah, like where

290
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:37,120
where is this fit into those that prior list of priorities that they were? Yeah, so it feels like

291
00:21:37,120 --> 00:21:50,440
we, for you, and the districties together, the next couple days, and then I think we also, whether it's a

292
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:56,220
So our priorities have gone to the time and we can bring it up as if we don't have facilities

293
00:21:56,220 --> 00:21:57,480
or funding in our budget.

294
00:21:57,860 --> 00:21:59,140
So we're just not not in the process.

295
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,500
And we have we can bring it into my bad conversations too, sir.

296
00:22:05,220 --> 00:22:06,700
Thanks for entertaining that.

297
00:22:07,780 --> 00:22:08,960
And thank you for waiting patiently.

298
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:13,300
I will turn to our student reps for their report this evening.

299
00:22:13,980 --> 00:22:15,420
Good evening, school committee.

300
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:17,600
For those of you not familiar yet.

301
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:21,780
I'm Jim O'Keyley, co-chair, alongside Hanson Oceo.

302
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:24,780
I'll also be the Senior Class President this year,

303
00:22:25,300 --> 00:22:28,940
so, expect to hear Senior Updates from me within the next year.

304
00:22:29,300 --> 00:22:29,920
A little update.

305
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:37,540
On student life as of recently, the year is winding down a student sex affair for final exams, which starts tomorrow.

306
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,420
And we'll move on until Monday.

307
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:48,980
Clubs are wrapping up and pulling their end of your bank wits and false horts, met last Wednesday to prepare for all season training.

308
00:22:49,380 --> 00:22:50,560
I'll now turn over to Gonzalo.

309
00:22:53,040 --> 00:23:03,000
So a lot of this stuff has been set and is common knowledge, but we are very excited to be coming towards the end of our school year as you may personally.

310
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:11,600
And Dr. Guys already said this, but we did congratulate the class of 28.

311
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:19,300
With their graduation, which was coordinated by junior parents and our very own Jimba.

312
00:23:20,780 --> 00:23:28,000
Along with that, we have our final sports update, which was the girls successfully taking hold there.

313
00:23:29,500 --> 00:23:36,000
8th consecutive state championship because rugby, this is a bit of a lighter note compared

314
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:43,060
to what we've started with this meeting, but we are, and there are a few good things

315
00:23:43,060 --> 00:23:46,920
to take away from the end of the year. I think that's what we have.

316
00:23:47,420 --> 00:23:51,360
The school do anything to celebrate the rugby winner.

317
00:23:52,500 --> 00:23:54,560
It's kind of standard at this point, aren't we?

318
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:04,620
Dr. Brecipe, I like their coach, Ms. McKay, and the players and all the parents and other

319
00:24:04,620 --> 00:24:09,420
coaches that have put a lot of time into this. There was the rugby bank, but last night,

320
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,180
they did get a lot of appreciation.

321
00:24:14,900 --> 00:24:18,400
And we already said this is their eighth time winning it

322
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:26,540
it's been around in Massachusetts for just as long I think. And so at some point it's kind

323
00:24:26,540 --> 00:24:34,040
of become more of an expectation than a congratulations, but we do all I see like appreciate

324
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:38,420
what they do. It's a great team of super team. Thank you.

325
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:45,680
I see Michael Todd Thompson. Are you

326
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,680
giving us CPAC report tonight?

327
00:24:49,790 --> 00:24:50,430
Yes.

328
00:24:51,290 --> 00:24:51,450
Great.

329
00:24:51,830 --> 00:24:52,070
Welcome.

330
00:24:53,250 --> 00:24:53,990
Thank you.

331
00:24:54,630 --> 00:24:55,650
So I don't have a lot.

332
00:24:57,110 --> 00:25:03,490
I just wanted to let people know that there is an informational webinar that is being given

333
00:25:03,490 --> 00:25:09,510
tomorrow hosted by the Federation for Children's Special Needs and Desi.

334
00:25:10,430 --> 00:25:37,050
So this is the last of three informational webinars that they've held, discussing the new IEP process in a pretty plain language, but rather than getting into the way they've framed it, I think I'd like to put it in this context.

335
00:25:37,590 --> 00:26:07,030
For a parent that feel like they're struggling with their confidence and advocating for their child or they want to kind of under, like not just know what's going on in their IP and how their district is doing, but really feel like they understand the process, not just like know what's happening, but understand why and then use those two things to be able to go into their IP meetings to ask better questions and

336
00:26:07,030 --> 00:26:09,530
to advocate more effectively for their child.

337
00:26:10,570 --> 00:26:13,810
This informational webinar is what you're looking for.

338
00:26:14,230 --> 00:26:19,250
And I've had parents who have a lot of parents who've come up to me and asked for these

339
00:26:19,250 --> 00:26:20,210
kinds of things.

340
00:26:20,530 --> 00:26:23,310
They want to know who to talk to, they want to know if there's a place to go.

341
00:26:24,070 --> 00:26:28,610
And this sounds like exactly what they're looking for.

342
00:26:28,610 --> 00:26:37,650
So I would encourage anyone who's there or watching from home to give this a try.

343
00:26:38,230 --> 00:26:42,590
It's 630 to 730, the link is up on the Facebook page.

344
00:26:43,830 --> 00:26:48,490
It's the second link down or the second post down on the Facebook page.

345
00:26:48,890 --> 00:26:55,750
So if you need any help navigating there or you have any other questions, please feel free

346
00:26:55,750 --> 00:26:56,850
to reach out to me.

347
00:26:56,850 --> 00:27:04,810
and I can help you. We also have our last meeting coming up in July. I need to speak to

348
00:27:04,810 --> 00:27:11,850
Tim to get the details about that. So I will have more about that forth coming. So what

349
00:27:11,850 --> 00:27:19,130
that's it? Did you say that's in July or your last meeting in June? I believe it's July.

350
00:27:22,910 --> 00:27:23,510
I

351
00:27:23,510 --> 00:27:24,330
All

352
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:47,220
right. We have a bunch of minutes this evening to approve. Thank you, Brian. So you should have seen in your packets the minutes from April 14th, May 5, 9 and 27 as well as June 2nd.

353
00:27:48,120 --> 00:27:51,340
Anybody have any comments?

354
00:27:56,010 --> 00:28:04,310
Then I move approval of the school committee minutes from April 14th, May 5th, May 9th, May 27th, and June 2nd, 2026.

355
00:28:07,410 --> 00:28:08,370
Roll up all this.

356
00:28:08,650 --> 00:28:09,420
How about would I?

357
00:28:10,730 --> 00:28:10,750
Well,

358
00:28:12,810 --> 00:28:12,910
we're right.

359
00:28:13,210 --> 00:28:14,550
I think that's like a way out.

360
00:28:14,770 --> 00:28:15,830
It's like around a minute.

361
00:28:15,830 --> 00:28:16,790
I'm already out.

362
00:28:17,010 --> 00:28:17,850
Thank you.

363
00:28:19,860 --> 00:28:22,440
Do any subcommittees have minutes this evening?

364
00:28:24,750 --> 00:28:29,750
Two of the finest subcommittee minutes on June 1st and May 11th.

365
00:28:30,990 --> 00:28:31,750
Thank you.

366
00:28:32,350 --> 00:28:33,810
All right.

367
00:28:34,050 --> 00:28:34,650
You all right?

368
00:28:34,650 --> 00:28:35,050
The girl.

369
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,040
Which of y'all caught up with?

370
00:28:43,500 --> 00:28:43,720
Great.

371
00:28:43,940 --> 00:28:49,500
And so I think both policy and school start and times will each have their last minutes to approve

372
00:28:49,500 --> 00:28:50,580
at the retreat.

373
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,400
Finance subcommittees all caught up.

374
00:28:53,420 --> 00:28:55,380
School committee will just have this set.

375
00:28:57,490 --> 00:28:59,510
negotiations is caught up and done.

376
00:29:00,130 --> 00:29:03,510
We have a couple of things I could have a couple of people have to do those in our

377
00:29:03,510 --> 00:29:03,870
treatment.

378
00:29:04,250 --> 00:29:04,970
We don't have any.

379
00:29:05,350 --> 00:29:06,530
We know of our negotiations.

380
00:29:07,050 --> 00:29:07,450
Great.

381
00:29:08,030 --> 00:29:08,770
Thank you.

382
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:11,660
All right.

383
00:29:11,820 --> 00:29:19,520
So that we can turn to our major business items, Artemis, put into your packets, the proposed school

384
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,620
committee meeting calendar for next year.

385
00:29:22,140 --> 00:29:26,260
It did try really hard to go through all of the meetings for next year and make sure

386
00:29:26,260 --> 00:29:27,260
they don't.

387
00:29:27,260 --> 00:29:31,860
conflict with all days the school committee does try our best to make sure that that doesn't happen

388
00:29:31,860 --> 00:29:39,020
however we are a district that doesn't observe all the holidays we are kind of designated on Tuesdays

389
00:29:39,020 --> 00:29:43,760
because the warrant committee is on Wednesdays and the select boards on Mondays and so sometimes

390
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:48,760
we do run into conflicts our meetings are always recorded and available to view afterwards

391
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:54,540
we're also always available not just for public comment in person but via email

392
00:29:54,820 --> 00:29:59,620
Um, so like I said, I did do my best. I don't know if anybody noted any all it is there.

393
00:30:02,380 --> 00:30:11,360
I didn't do any holidays, but I might have a couple of conflicts. If you want to get those from people offline or, well, just in case, like, four of us have a conflict.

394
00:30:14,230 --> 00:30:16,230
Yeah, maybe I was hoping you would have sent those to Artemisa.

395
00:30:16,390 --> 00:30:17,370
Oh, sorry, I did not.

396
00:30:17,510 --> 00:30:18,690
No, I guess I did.

397
00:30:18,850 --> 00:30:19,510
I guess both the calendar.

398
00:30:19,850 --> 00:30:20,590
Okay, that's fine.

399
00:30:20,750 --> 00:30:21,370
No, it's fine.

400
00:30:21,650 --> 00:30:24,330
See, people know that they have, I haven't written down, should.

401
00:30:24,750 --> 00:30:25,110
Yes.

402
00:30:25,410 --> 00:30:26,250
The key to that.

403
00:30:28,410 --> 00:30:29,210
All right.

404
00:30:29,450 --> 00:30:34,090
Well, it seems like we probably have at least a forum on all of the dates for folks.

405
00:30:34,090 --> 00:30:40,610
So I'm just going to go ahead and move the approval of this full committee calendar for 2627.

406
00:30:41,990 --> 00:30:43,430
So roll call please.

407
00:30:43,670 --> 00:30:44,270
I have a good eye.

408
00:30:45,050 --> 00:30:46,250
Where are you?

409
00:30:46,350 --> 00:30:46,530
You are.

410
00:30:48,310 --> 00:30:49,490
I'm already eye.

411
00:30:49,670 --> 00:30:50,970
So we will post those.

412
00:30:51,050 --> 00:30:55,390
And then yes, if you have ones that you think that you might have a conflict with.

413
00:30:55,530 --> 00:30:56,710
Because then those are to miss.

414
00:30:57,510 --> 00:31:00,130
Again, as long as we have a requirement should be fine.

415
00:31:01,470 --> 00:31:03,130
We'll do our best to get everybody there.

416
00:31:04,870 --> 00:31:10,630
reading, medical, and we do not know for sure it will book out all of that date.

417
00:31:10,990 --> 00:31:12,690
I'll start trying to try to be there.

418
00:31:13,130 --> 00:31:13,890
Well, that happens.

419
00:31:14,430 --> 00:31:17,330
We all try to be at every meeting every year.

420
00:31:17,790 --> 00:31:20,190
So yeah, I mean, in things that will probably be a problem for a lot of people.

421
00:31:20,450 --> 00:31:21,450
I think I had two dates.

422
00:31:21,810 --> 00:31:25,150
I do appreciate the extra meeting by bright actors.

423
00:31:25,630 --> 00:31:26,590
Yeah, we kept that.

424
00:31:26,610 --> 00:31:28,010
Thank you for that idea last year.

425
00:31:28,690 --> 00:31:29,930
So we did keep that.

426
00:31:29,950 --> 00:31:33,510
And then the June, I moved up.

427
00:31:34,670 --> 00:31:39,610
So that if we don't have snow days, we won't be eating after the end of the school year.

428
00:31:40,410 --> 00:31:41,870
Let's see about that.

429
00:31:43,290 --> 00:31:43,510
All right.

430
00:31:43,630 --> 00:31:52,410
The next agenda item is actually, for the first time, the school community is going to try to go ahead and approve the first day of the school year for the 2027-28 calendar.

431
00:31:53,190 --> 00:31:57,630
We get parents asking us to do this sooner than what we typically do.

432
00:31:57,630 --> 00:32:04,790
So, Lusha, I appreciate you looking into this and bringing it forward from if there's anything that you would like to say about it.

433
00:32:04,810 --> 00:32:07,930
That would be, yeah, that's in the demo. It's really just follow the best sentences.

434
00:32:08,210 --> 00:32:12,750
Yeah, so the Labor Day that coming here is quite late.

435
00:32:13,390 --> 00:32:16,770
Yes, so then it would be the Wednesday before, which is so I am proposing.

436
00:32:17,250 --> 00:32:17,550
I'm serious.

437
00:32:18,230 --> 00:32:19,370
I think it's like that. It's true.

438
00:32:20,690 --> 00:32:21,570
I'm serious.

439
00:32:21,650 --> 00:32:24,210
Oh, no, I'm serious. I'm sorry. I looked at the shoot calendar.

440
00:32:25,690 --> 00:32:26,370
That's what I think.

441
00:32:26,370 --> 00:32:31,170
because I had the date as September 1st, correct.

442
00:32:31,930 --> 00:32:33,730
I was in 2006 at the point.

443
00:32:35,250 --> 00:32:35,570
Yeah.

444
00:32:38,070 --> 00:32:42,730
So we're not approving the full calendar for that school year at this point, but just the first day.

445
00:32:43,010 --> 00:32:45,470
Sarah, do you have any comments or questions about it?

446
00:32:45,590 --> 00:32:49,330
No, I was actually appreciative of the of the fourth hot hair.

447
00:32:49,430 --> 00:32:50,710
So thank you.

448
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,560
It's times it just takes me getting 30 miles about the same topic.

449
00:32:59,060 --> 00:33:02,080
You know, when the fourth of them started,

450
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:12,300
you mean for 2027? No, that is 18 months away.

451
00:33:13,100 --> 00:33:17,200
Well, it is, yeah. Anyway, so it's, you know, it's just, I don't mean it.

452
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,200
It's not in the novelist's circuit.

453
00:33:21,140 --> 00:33:25,180
It actually aligns with the previous Belmont calendar policy.

454
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:37,380
All right, I'm going to go ahead and move our approval of the first day of the 2027-28 school year as September 1, 2027.

455
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:40,920
How about would I?

456
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,860
Or like do I?

457
00:33:44,460 --> 00:33:45,180
Is it around that?

458
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:46,860
Or are you ready, I?

459
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:47,660
Great.

460
00:33:48,820 --> 00:33:49,900
So we can post that.

461
00:33:50,140 --> 00:33:55,160
I actually would suggest sending that out in either of the principles,

462
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:59,280
send it out in the updates or the district sent it out in an update or something, but just

463
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,400
letting pass know that that is the date. I'll be not going in.

464
00:34:03,140 --> 00:34:09,560
Can we also add it to the 2627 calendar? Just kind of like a window?

465
00:34:10,420 --> 00:34:11,160
Yeah, that would be good.

466
00:34:12,740 --> 00:34:14,620
Can you follow the things?

467
00:34:14,900 --> 00:34:14,920
Yes.

468
00:34:15,580 --> 00:34:19,360
Can you just support

469
00:34:22,020 --> 00:34:22,580
that?

470
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:28,060
So next agenda item is the summative evaluation report.

471
00:34:28,060 --> 00:34:35,500
I want to thank all of the committee members first of all for submitting their individual reports.

472
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:44,280
I think this is the first time in a while that we actually had six individual reports because all members have rolled over into a second year.

473
00:34:44,860 --> 00:34:48,260
This is Dr. Geiser's third evaluation.

474
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:56,040
They have all been one year evaluations given that this was her first term as superintendent in the district.

475
00:34:56,040 --> 00:35:03,920
I am just going to give a brief overview of the composite evaluation report, which will be posted.

476
00:35:05,180 --> 00:35:08,480
And then if school committee members wish to add anything individually,

477
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:13,580
I'm happy to go around once and do that.

478
00:35:14,020 --> 00:35:17,420
But Dr. Guys already presented did her presentation at our last meeting.

479
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,700
So she's not presenting anything this evening.

480
00:35:21,220 --> 00:35:29,780
So from the composite report, I will say that the committee came, there were a few really strong themes that came out of this.

481
00:35:30,240 --> 00:35:37,200
One was there was really strong alignment and progress made around the district priorities.

482
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:44,120
There was a lot of discussion of the development of systems, relationships, and increased capacity.

483
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:50,000
and a lot of talk of putting the Belmont Public Schools in a better position for future success.

484
00:35:50,580 --> 00:35:55,420
So this year all six school committee members rated Dr. Geiser's overall performance as

485
00:35:55,420 --> 00:36:01,340
for efficient. The committee found that Dr. Geiser achieved two of her three annual goals

486
00:36:01,340 --> 00:36:06,380
and made significant progress for the third. Specifically, we rated her performance as

487
00:36:06,380 --> 00:36:12,160
achieved on the strategic land goal and achieved on the budget and resource allocation goal

488
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,780
with significant progress made on the student achievement goal.

489
00:36:17,060 --> 00:36:22,220
A common theme that emerged was committee members recognized not only progress forward

490
00:36:22,220 --> 00:36:25,700
this year's goal, but also as I said earlier, the development of systems,

491
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,720
relationships, and increased capacity that position the district for future trips success.

492
00:36:31,380 --> 00:36:36,640
Members highlighted progress in moving the strategic plan priorities from planning to implementation.

493
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:40,660
continued efforts to improve student outcomes through curriculum,

494
00:36:40,980 --> 00:36:45,740
new curriculum, MTSS, and student supports, and a very transparent budget process

495
00:36:45,740 --> 00:36:48,800
that aligns resources with district priorities and student needs.

496
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,980
The committee also recognized Dr. Geiser's commitment to collaboration and

497
00:36:52,980 --> 00:36:56,280
engagement with families, staff, town leadership, and community partners.

498
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:06,620
While important work remains, particularly around measuring the impact of some of the

499
00:37:06,620 --> 00:37:12,120
measure and ring the impacts of the multiple pathways and the new family communication system.

500
00:37:12,700 --> 00:37:16,700
The committee believes the district is well positioned to continue advancing its priorities

501
00:37:16,700 --> 00:37:19,640
and supporting students and families in the years ahead.

502
00:37:20,980 --> 00:37:25,180
And with that, I'm happy to take any additional comments,

503
00:37:25,260 --> 00:37:29,420
individual comments from school committee members if they wish to just raise your hand.

504
00:37:31,650 --> 00:37:34,630
Thank you.

505
00:37:36,630 --> 00:37:37,270
I

506
00:37:39,540 --> 00:37:48,960
have an individual comment that I would like to just raise up for you is that I have gotten to realize

507
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:56,300
as being chair for a few years now that the superintendent position can be a super lonely position to the end.

508
00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:02,860
So every other individual in the district has at least one peer who shares their experiences and their level of decision

509
00:38:02,860 --> 00:38:11,100
making that happen. And so one thing that I've really appreciated is that Dr. Geiser makes an

510
00:38:11,100 --> 00:38:16,700
effort to connect with peers in other districts and sometimes even further afield than that.

511
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:22,720
And I think that that is really important and I think that I have seen it bring different perspectives

512
00:38:22,720 --> 00:38:30,520
and your ability to think about issues and solutions in a different way and even be able to reflect

513
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:36,580
on your own leadership pattern and what you couldn't prove upon and I think that that's a really

514
00:38:36,580 --> 00:38:43,940
important effort that you've been making to connect with others at your leadership level and I

515
00:38:43,940 --> 00:38:51,860
just want to encourage you to continue to do that and you know if that means another membership

516
00:38:51,860 --> 00:38:57,880
or what have you please just reach out to us if you need the support to do something like that.

517
00:38:57,880 --> 00:38:59,760
Thank you.

518
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:00,760
Can you buy me a car?

519
00:39:01,100 --> 00:39:01,380
Sure.

520
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:03,220
I'm going to serve.

521
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:07,560
Thank you for all of the feedback on the areas for continuing growth or definitely consistent

522
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:12,040
with conversations we're having that we do need to grow in those areas in general.

523
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:18,700
And all of the both the supports and the critical feedback is always very helpful.

524
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,800
I want to extend my appreciation to the team as always.

525
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:39,340
This, the work that my work can only happen with the team, and so what you see in all of the updates and all of the, you know, what I put in the presentation last week, all of that is a reflection of how we work all work together to move the district forward.

526
00:39:39,380 --> 00:39:43,920
So I do want to extend that appreciation to the leaders, the whole leadership team.

527
00:39:44,580 --> 00:39:50,360
to just to kind of, to make some point about tapping into professional learning opportunities.

528
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:55,400
So this is also the last year of the new superintendent induction program. It's a three-year program.

529
00:39:55,880 --> 00:40:00,280
I'm actually looking into two other potential opportunities. One is called meeting now,

530
00:40:00,340 --> 00:40:05,760
which is a national organization for superintendent and they do a cohort model also,

531
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:13,040
cohort model also, that I'm planning to tap into and that'll, that'll get me contact with other

532
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:18,980
superintendents and other states, which is exciting. And then MASS also has another, again,

533
00:40:19,240 --> 00:40:24,560
cohorts, a professional learning group that I might be tapping into, as well, for more

534
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:30,440
like people, more in the middle part of their career. So those are like a set of exciting

535
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:36,820
opportunities that I'm looking forward to. So thank you. I appreciate the feedback this part.

536
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:47,300
And we can revisit at our retreat this year and in conversations around bullsetting about whether or not the next cycle would be a one or two year.

537
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,140
That is fine.

538
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:51,000
Thank you everyone.

539
00:40:52,540 --> 00:40:56,260
So that we can turn to an update from the district.

540
00:40:56,740 --> 00:40:59,900
This is our strategic plan and of your update.

541
00:41:00,700 --> 00:41:07,440
All right, I am going to just take us quickly through the slide deck because most of this, you had,

542
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,700
are you seeing, what's your choice.

543
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,960
And if yours is, that's your, that's a thing.

544
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:21,860
I'll just, I'll just, yeah, it was the head free lock the head.

545
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:44,060
I'm going to go through quickly through the flag deck most of this you've already seen, but I'm going to point out more is what the focus for next year is we did work with a strategic group to make the adjustments.

546
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,500
So, looking at the first one,

547
00:41:52,300 --> 00:41:54,360
which you might need to pull it out.

548
00:41:54,580 --> 00:41:55,000
If sure.

549
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:57,860
And it might be because it might be my connection with.

550
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:00,500
Just.

551
00:42:00,500 --> 00:42:00,920
You know, just.

552
00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,600
Well, let me know when you have it up.

553
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:04,120
I'll like it.

554
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:04,400
I'll like it.

555
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:09,960
So in this.

556
00:42:12,100 --> 00:42:12,400
I'm going to

557
00:42:15,020 --> 00:42:18,660
start to cut it.

558
00:42:21,970 --> 00:42:22,290
I'm going to start to cut it.

559
00:42:22,530 --> 00:42:24,910
I'm going to

560
00:42:31,950 --> 00:42:33,410
start to cut it.

561
00:42:33,410 --> 00:42:33,870
I'm going to start to cut it.

562
00:42:33,890 --> 00:42:34,170
I'm going to start to cut it.

563
00:42:34,170 --> 00:42:35,630
you can make it a little bit bigger, so you can

564
00:42:40,140 --> 00:42:42,780
use the plus button at the bottom.

565
00:42:43,300 --> 00:42:52,760
Yeah, sorry. There you go. Okay, so NTSS, we are, we are making progress on this goal and

566
00:42:52,760 --> 00:43:00,360
have met, done a lot of work on the D-cap, which was huge this year and rolling that out to

567
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:07,900
class to teachers and staff. And then the evaluation effectiveness review is definitely coming along.

568
00:43:07,900 --> 00:43:15,900
So the focus for next year is on further on further building out tier two, including professional development and refining curriculum.

569
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:24,020
So in all of those annual goals, which are revised from what was originally there, that's the main focus for those.

570
00:43:25,460 --> 00:43:27,580
Vision of a graduate, vision of a learner.

571
00:43:28,720 --> 00:43:36,060
As you can see, we've managed to meet the benchmarks of the goals that are outlined for this year.

572
00:43:36,060 --> 00:43:50,580
This means that next year we are focused on the implementation of the B.O.G. competencies in the curriculum and instruction, and again those enables which are also revised, it is focused on those two specific areas.

573
00:43:52,060 --> 00:43:59,900
Multiple pathways you've seen this before we were able to identify the two pathways as well as action plan resources and so forth.

574
00:43:59,900 --> 00:44:06,140
Next year we are focused on the building out the actual pathways with those elements in it,

575
00:44:06,300 --> 00:44:11,860
and then other CTE opportunities we did meet with writing public schools in that partnership.

576
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:17,640
We're looking to pursue that, and then as you know tonight's again we'll include a position for

577
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:18,620
our pathways coordinator.

578
00:44:21,420 --> 00:44:24,980
Priority to SCL Mental Health, making good progress on the first

579
00:44:24,980 --> 00:44:31,120
and completed the second one with with a school climate measuring tool. Next year is going to

580
00:44:32,700 --> 00:44:38,800
focus on for tier one using district mental health team to strengthen the district system,

581
00:44:39,100 --> 00:44:43,960
including professional development for educators and implementing and implementing the climate survey.

582
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:51,960
And the next one is SCL mental health focus on tier 2 and 3. Again, making some progress on the

583
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:56,680
one good progress on the first one and next year is really focused on building

584
00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,780
the mental health systems around here's two and three interventions.

585
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:06,840
And support, including establishing data protocols. We do have resources in terms of social workers and

586
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:11,000
counselors, but this is about really kind of developing it as a system.

587
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:19,580
Family communication, you saw that you heard the plan that Matt Kazasges delivered a few weeks ago.

588
00:45:21,300 --> 00:45:29,180
We, and the goals, we were able to complete this one. This one is focused on structures next year for this particular one is focused on

589
00:45:29,180 --> 00:45:40,420
amendment to implementation and we'll continue gathering feedback from families and then the next one is family communication practices also did well with these young goals for this year.

590
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:51,960
Next year's revised goals include a will focus on developing a professional development plan as part of the overall communication and I'm going gathering feedback from families as well.

591
00:45:52,940 --> 00:45:57,000
So that's the gist of what the goal adjustments I'm happy to take any questions if.

592
00:46:02,780 --> 00:46:07,840
Thank you for the for the for the progress that we have made so far.

593
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:14,680
A strategic plan goes, it is a a guy for what we want to do then.

594
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:18,360
Often it's more than just what I was going to do is great.

595
00:46:19,340 --> 00:46:27,180
So is there any plan to extend the strategic plan to need a new one or have it been, yes,

596
00:46:27,180 --> 00:46:32,120
They'd be not sure about what we're talking about, you know, looking forward more than one year at a time.

597
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:40,100
Absolutely. That's a good question. So next year will be the third year. Next year will also be the beer that we make decisions about what the subsequent plan will look like.

598
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:46,780
These are big goals. So I suspect we're good more work will need to continue in these areas.

599
00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,920
What I also suspect is that we're going to be better at writing the goals themselves.

600
00:46:51,140 --> 00:46:56,320
If you notice like we've had through this plan, we've had to revise goals a lot because we start the work and realize,

601
00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,220
Oh, we have to go in a different direction, right?

602
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,340
And then we revise the goals and kind of move that goal post.

603
00:47:02,140 --> 00:47:07,440
So next year, we have that decision around what comes next.

604
00:47:08,240 --> 00:47:12,900
We also need to look at the outline that measures of completion of the metrics.

605
00:47:13,140 --> 00:47:16,400
And so we're also looking at that to answer the question,

606
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:17,980
did we need those metrics?

607
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,560
And if so, where do we do next?

608
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:23,980
If not, how do we make adjustments for the next

609
00:47:23,980 --> 00:47:29,500
the subsequent plan. But that will be the work next year. We will work with the strategic

610
00:47:29,500 --> 00:47:31,860
advisory committee around those questions.

611
00:47:35,300 --> 00:47:36,300
So, being your first.

612
00:47:40,780 --> 00:47:42,680
I can't say zero. Oh, I'm

613
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:46,940
also, because I know I'm just keeping it up. This is nice people like to go back to it. So,

614
00:47:47,020 --> 00:47:52,940
bye. So, are there any comments? I know that you've been also on the advisory. Yes, no,

615
00:47:52,940 --> 00:47:59,240
I don't have any comments. I think as I mentioned, when we had the group come in and report,

616
00:47:59,240 --> 00:48:04,220
I've been really pleased with the process and I feel like the fact that we've been able to be

617
00:48:04,220 --> 00:48:10,680
responsive with the goals and sort of tweak and and calibrate them based on the reality of

618
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:16,040
implementation is actually sort of a great measure of a good strategic plan and I think this

619
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:21,560
will segue nicely into the next topic Dr. Guiser in terms of asking for the resources that

620
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:27,320
we need to be successful with this plan. So I'm fully supportive. Thank you.

621
00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:36,720
one more question. One of the things that we have struggling to have and still struggling will be funding for special

622
00:48:36,720 --> 00:48:44,060
efficient, for example, right now that big, you know, issue we have on contract and services.

623
00:48:45,540 --> 00:48:51,720
Is there, and I don't know if it really fits into strategic plan on its own,

624
00:48:51,720 --> 00:48:54,440
points really administrative, considerations,

625
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,640
but, you know, having some kind of strategic goals

626
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:07,580
where we, you know, continue to support in district programming as a way to reduce out a

627
00:49:07,580 --> 00:49:15,520
district call and contact service call, who will be something that I'd like to see as continue to

628
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:24,220
or toward. So if that is articulated in a future plan, there will be something that we can measure.

629
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:26,620
Or it's, yeah, I appreciate that comment.

630
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:30,220
It technically falls under NTSS.

631
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:33,360
It says here's two and three piece of NTSS.

632
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:37,500
It's not explicit in the plan as you just described it.

633
00:49:37,500 --> 00:49:40,060
It is very explicit in our budget process.

634
00:49:41,100 --> 00:49:43,000
But we could assume that that's correct.

635
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:56,320
Yeah, and so that is an important part of MTSS that, you know, in terms of building industry capacity, so we could look at what is there a more specific goal under that framework that we can pull out. That's something we can look at.

636
00:50:01,630 --> 00:50:11,330
Maybe at higher level, just question, is do you feel like, do you feel that everyone in the district?

637
00:50:11,670 --> 00:50:13,570
That's a very catch-all.

638
00:50:15,970 --> 00:50:20,810
Do you feel that people feel connected to this plan or behind it?

639
00:50:20,810 --> 00:50:27,730
I'm asking this because there's also a lot of, especially, I think, maybe things that didn't happen this year,

640
00:50:27,730 --> 00:50:31,730
but our plan for next year that involve a lot of educators

641
00:50:31,730 --> 00:50:33,950
just in terms of whether it's professional development

642
00:50:33,950 --> 00:50:37,350
or trying to gather feedback from them on some of this

643
00:50:37,350 --> 00:50:38,830
and new protocols.

644
00:50:39,230 --> 00:50:44,310
And so I'm just curious, how this is communicated

645
00:50:45,070 --> 00:50:46,610
to educators throughout the district

646
00:50:46,610 --> 00:50:50,470
and whether or not they feel connected or on board

647
00:50:50,470 --> 00:50:53,310
with what our district priorities are.

648
00:50:53,770 --> 00:50:54,730
That's a good question.

649
00:50:55,230 --> 00:50:57,590
So just speaking for a small leadership council, yes.

650
00:50:57,590 --> 00:51:00,550
like we, this is what we talk a lot about this strategic plan.

651
00:51:00,810 --> 00:51:04,170
And then we peel off some specific pieces from the plan.

652
00:51:04,250 --> 00:51:06,050
Like one example was D-CAP, right?

653
00:51:06,090 --> 00:51:10,050
We did a lot of work with the leadership council on D-CAP in that space.

654
00:51:10,670 --> 00:51:13,310
As well as full kind of like there are several different elements

655
00:51:13,310 --> 00:51:17,090
of the plan that we, we really honed in on with the, with them.

656
00:51:17,590 --> 00:51:19,810
For staff, yes, to that extent.

657
00:51:19,950 --> 00:51:21,690
Like I don't know if we have staff members that say,

658
00:51:22,030 --> 00:51:23,470
yes, this is the strategic plan.

659
00:51:23,490 --> 00:51:26,030
But we will have staff members that might say,

660
00:51:26,030 --> 00:51:31,830
Yes, I remember talking about D-CAP and what that looks like in classrooms or I remember talking

661
00:51:31,830 --> 00:51:37,530
yet being on the task force for this full climate surveys or for the family communication

662
00:51:37,530 --> 00:51:45,570
pieces talking points for real shares. All of those pieces people are connected to and so when they

663
00:51:45,570 --> 00:51:50,550
see the plan they might recognize them there, I think that's where that connection would happen

664
00:51:50,550 --> 00:51:55,490
because specific elements that we bring in and then I know MTSS, I mean that's all I mean

665
00:51:55,490 --> 00:52:00,570
I think to your point, I think that people are connected to the things that directly touch their work.

666
00:52:00,950 --> 00:52:04,990
And like either they're on the committee or they're connected to the process.

667
00:52:05,850 --> 00:52:12,930
But it does make me think even for our audits leadership retreat trying to integrate all of the school improvement plans.

668
00:52:13,290 --> 00:52:23,330
Did you plan like trying to share that more and show creating something that leaders can bring back to their schools and departments to help teachers see that all these things are all connected.

669
00:52:23,330 --> 00:52:29,970
And we're like we're all growing in one direction even though sometimes people's disconnect. I think that's a piece of what I hear in the questions that piece like

670
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:36,620
Do people see how these things are connected? Rather than these sort of one-off sort of initiatives?

671
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:46,220
And that's something, yeah, we talked about that for that reason to say, even it is something that you're actually doing in a different way over here or something.

672
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:52,600
That's, or you're already doing this in the classroom and here's what we're calling in.

673
00:52:53,880 --> 00:53:01,880
So, but yeah, you know, that's always the work is to kind of make people make connections between different things.

674
00:53:02,900 --> 00:53:15,640
And you know, look like vision of a graduate like they say it takes like to be the five years before it's something people like talk about and realize is they, you know, it takes a time to, so it wants to.

675
00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:20,620
Sure, and to see how it connects with your actual standards like your teaching standards.

676
00:53:20,620 --> 00:53:28,640
I understand that. And I just, I just, I just want people to feel like they have ownership in something, you know?

677
00:53:28,720 --> 00:53:30,360
Yeah, people get more excited.

678
00:53:30,720 --> 00:53:33,160
And it's a sense of accomplishment, like so much as God.

679
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:33,640
Yeah.

680
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,940
And so, a lot of people to feel good about that.

681
00:53:38,260 --> 00:53:39,060
Appreciate that.

682
00:53:40,850 --> 00:53:41,110
Great.

683
00:53:41,990 --> 00:53:47,050
So that you can bring up the next agenda item, which is the position description for the

684
00:53:47,050 --> 00:53:52,130
And I will let you explain this.

685
00:53:54,470 --> 00:54:02,450
So this position, you have a description that I'll relate sort of the information that I gave in the memo.

686
00:54:03,330 --> 00:54:06,910
So the multiple pathways goal as you know has been happening this past year.

687
00:54:07,030 --> 00:54:09,810
And you saw the progress that we made and we're going next.

688
00:54:09,810 --> 00:54:19,570
Back in March, we were able to present the work to our legislative representatives,

689
00:54:20,130 --> 00:54:35,930
the broaders and mobrons, and through that meeting, we were able to get and secure the FY26 State Supplemental Budget to fund a Pathways Coordinator position.

690
00:54:37,050 --> 00:54:57,030
So, what the position we'll focus on is building out the two pathways, tapping, looking at the partnerships to develop through, to develop the internships, applying for grants like the desi grant for example, which just recently came out that will be applying for.

691
00:54:57,030 --> 00:55:03,890
And everything around building out these pathways and getting them ready for implementation.

692
00:55:05,330 --> 00:55:08,630
This is one-year position because the money is only temporary.

693
00:55:09,970 --> 00:55:18,450
The position description I did put that highlighted that it's a one-year position, but when you vote on a position, you vote for it to just exist.

694
00:55:20,230 --> 00:55:26,270
And even you're not necessarily voting it as a one-year, but just to tap it as part of our positions that we have.

695
00:55:27,330 --> 00:55:41,990
So that when, if we somehow, like, towards the end of next year, if we realize we have additional funding, that can help support it going into the following year, then we could potentially continue it, but we would need to secure probably grant funding to do that.

696
00:55:42,770 --> 00:55:51,130
So that said, it's intended right now just to be when you're positioned because we know that that money will is only for one year, so that's how we're treating it at the moment.

697
00:55:54,330 --> 00:55:59,050
So, yeah, I'm happy to answer questions about the position itself.

698
00:56:00,190 --> 00:56:01,770
Do you have anything that you want to ask?

699
00:56:04,610 --> 00:56:09,270
Do you just have funding that they may try this again or is this just a kind of a one-off?

700
00:56:10,170 --> 00:56:18,310
It's the current year's supplemental, so it's more like, here's some, it's basically what's left over kind of thing.

701
00:56:19,010 --> 00:56:46,930
There may be, like I said, outside of grant funding, I mean if we could try, if we don't get the grant then we could certainly try this method again and see, you know, they can continue to support it, but I, I would probably, in my mind, the grant funding would be better to you, I mean it'd be good to get the grant money because that's a little bit more of a, that feels more stable than relying on like sort of a supplemental thing.

702
00:56:46,930 --> 00:56:57,890
I see this supplemental is like, here's some starter money to kind of get things going, and we will continue to figure out the sustainability piece of it.

703
00:56:57,970 --> 00:57:03,270
And well, the person who is in position be the grant writer or the...

704
00:57:03,270 --> 00:57:05,590
Yeah, the thing would be involved with the grant.

705
00:57:05,710 --> 00:57:12,110
The grant applications, and we do an intent to apply now, and then the application process goes into next year.

706
00:57:12,110 --> 00:57:15,570
So you, the approval, when the approval happens,

707
00:57:15,790 --> 00:57:17,670
it's actually for the following years of meditation.

708
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:21,400
Sarah,

709
00:57:23,690 --> 00:57:25,210
so first off, I'm super excited

710
00:57:25,210 --> 00:57:28,110
that we've got this funding, because I do think this

711
00:57:28,110 --> 00:57:30,090
has been an area that we haven't been able to make

712
00:57:30,090 --> 00:57:32,250
progress on because of lack of resources.

713
00:57:33,410 --> 00:57:34,990
My only concern, which I'm voice saying,

714
00:57:35,130 --> 00:57:37,070
and not because I think you have a solution, Jill,

715
00:57:37,070 --> 00:57:40,510
but because it weighs on me, is the lead time to hire

716
00:57:40,510 --> 00:57:43,170
an onboard disposition, knowing that we have a run

717
00:57:43,170 --> 00:57:45,890
with one year to prove viability.

718
00:57:45,890 --> 00:57:52,670
if you want to try to sustain funding, just worries me, so I know this is sort of a bootstrap

719
00:57:52,670 --> 00:57:57,310
position that we've put together. I just hope if there's anything we can do to help support

720
00:57:57,310 --> 00:58:02,450
the onboarding or the sort of any aspects of this piece of that, let us know because it does feel like

721
00:58:03,630 --> 00:58:10,250
a lofty goal. Yeah, and that is to do that. Yeah, no, it's in that stuff like something we're talking about.

722
00:58:10,250 --> 00:58:16,630
we'll get it posted right away and just start running the search pretty quickly and yeah I mean it's every

723
00:58:16,630 --> 00:58:23,070
these things are always sort of you have to you know do our best to recruit to network and you know

724
00:58:23,070 --> 00:58:28,650
certainly spread the word yourselves if you don't know if anybody that is interested but yeah

725
00:58:28,650 --> 00:58:34,650
we'll I'm sure I think we'll be able to make it work find somebody that would be willing to dive in

726
00:58:34,650 --> 00:58:40,230
and so forth and this is open to both internal and external candidates so you know that's

727
00:58:40,250 --> 00:58:44,990
internals also, very much possibility. Thank you.

728
00:58:45,150 --> 00:58:49,390
Do you know if the state funding has expiration date?

729
00:58:50,110 --> 00:58:54,490
No, well, that's we are we have to work on the back end with the town because with that

730
00:58:54,490 --> 00:58:59,010
supplemental funding there is some money that's also going to the town for different things.

731
00:58:59,730 --> 00:59:04,530
So we I've been talking with the administrator about figuring out how to access it. It has to go.

732
00:59:04,550 --> 00:59:07,570
It goes right to the town treasure and then I will get distributor.

733
00:59:07,570 --> 00:59:19,330
Okay, so I'm thinking that, you know, looking at a one-year funding doesn't necessarily mean that we have somebody

734
00:59:19,330 --> 00:59:24,290
like August, September or something, but we have a year of work.

735
00:59:24,710 --> 00:59:27,850
Yes, we have, we have enough to cover the salary.

736
00:59:29,550 --> 00:59:34,730
So maybe if we start a co-oper, it doesn't necessarily have to end it.

737
00:59:35,390 --> 00:59:45,470
Okay, so just make sure that the little bit of fun will allow us to, you know, get the

738
00:59:45,470 --> 00:59:46,390
bulls out of the position.

739
00:59:49,060 --> 00:59:49,140
Yeah.

740
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:52,680
That's the best part of being a forward member, so we don't have to do this.

741
00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:54,980
It was the last one.

742
00:59:55,740 --> 00:59:57,360
It was my chance.

743
00:59:58,940 --> 00:59:59,900
All right, great.

744
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:06,260
And I'm going to go ahead and move approval of the Pathways Coordinator position. That can't.

745
01:00:08,370 --> 01:00:09,310
And Abadudai?

746
01:00:09,930 --> 01:00:11,250
Oh my, you are.

747
01:00:11,750 --> 01:00:12,450
Relive like.

748
01:00:12,570 --> 01:00:12,910
More area.

749
01:00:13,690 --> 01:00:14,470
Thank you, everyone.

750
01:00:14,910 --> 01:00:15,570
Thank you all.

751
01:00:19,170 --> 01:00:22,890
And we have some policies here.

752
01:00:26,540 --> 01:00:30,420
And there were some also some late dates that I...

753
01:00:30,420 --> 01:00:31,360
You don't speak to.

754
01:00:32,580 --> 01:00:38,600
So, we didn't get any feedback from anyone on the second read policies that are here in the

755
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:39,080
segment.

756
01:00:39,300 --> 01:00:40,460
We have to keep up one.

757
01:00:41,740 --> 01:00:42,100
Great.

758
01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:46,240
This is on the J.

759
01:00:47,420 --> 01:00:48,920
So, let's take those first.

760
01:00:49,400 --> 01:00:55,580
So, right now, for second reads, I have JLCD, administering medicine to students and JLCD

761
01:00:55,580 --> 01:00:58,280
C, which is the self-administration and self-care of medications.

762
01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:00,280
This is JLCD.

763
01:01:00,580 --> 01:01:00,760
Okay.

764
01:01:03,060 --> 01:01:18,360
on page 3. It talks about administering emergency medicines. This is number 3. And it talks

765
01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:23,680
about 2 can and can, and then on the next page it says school districts are not authorized

766
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:32,540
is to make use of 105 CMR 700.0 3C for the administration of emergency medicine seems contradict

767
01:01:32,540 --> 01:01:38,240
to read to the above segment where talks about who can do it and when they can do it.

768
01:01:38,420 --> 01:01:39,980
And that's a rescue medication.

769
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:42,480
I didn't mean to interrupt, but I.

770
01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:45,380
That's what the others were knocks on and it ends our rescue.

771
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:45,900
Are they?

772
01:01:45,900 --> 01:01:46,300
Are they?

773
01:01:46,500 --> 01:01:47,620
So I looked that up.

774
01:01:47,860 --> 01:01:48,940
Hang on a minute.

775
01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:56,140
Memory from the lengthy conversations with Beth Romney about this is the way the place

776
01:01:56,140 --> 01:02:01,580
this is most prevalent is the kids who have Epi-Pen, everybody in the district has trained

777
01:02:01,580 --> 01:02:03,860
every year in the administration of an Epi-Pen.

778
01:02:04,660 --> 01:02:04,840
Right.

779
01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:12,580
And the way a lot of the administration orders are written, that's to be followed with Ben Adrella.

780
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:19,080
And I find this confusing, but the Epi-Pen can be delegated in anybody in the state can

781
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:22,960
but nobody but a nurse is allowed to administer the mental drill.

782
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:26,980
It's interesting to see it because that's what becomes like a huge challenge for

783
01:02:26,980 --> 01:02:31,150
field trips and things like that because if it's given kids medical orders.

784
01:02:32,380 --> 01:02:37,080
I think that's so, because you can't practice with mental drill because you have to,

785
01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:40,140
you have to, you have to, you have to, you have to, you have to, you have to,

786
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:43,780
you have to, you have to, you have to, you have to, you have to, you have to,

787
01:02:43,780 --> 01:02:52,140
strange and cumbersome, but that's the thing that that has talked about the last three years.

788
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:58,980
I mean, I will say that both MASC, I mean, this comes from them, but Beth Romney really went

789
01:02:58,980 --> 01:02:59,900
through these policies,

790
01:03:02,540 --> 01:03:04,440
and yet self-comfortable with this language.

791
01:03:05,060 --> 01:03:10,600
It just seems contradictory to me.

792
01:03:10,600 --> 01:03:14,240
to get their told hat that they're authorized in the previous page.

793
01:03:14,420 --> 01:03:15,420
Where do you think you see it?

794
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:16,720
Operates in the previous page.

795
01:03:16,980 --> 01:03:18,920
We're sponsored to a medication emergency.

796
01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:20,620
No, it was, you know, here.

797
01:03:20,700 --> 01:03:21,760
Unlicensed school person?

798
01:03:22,220 --> 01:03:22,980
No, no, no.

799
01:03:22,980 --> 01:03:24,320
This is very last sentence.

800
01:03:24,660 --> 01:03:27,800
So they're not authorized to make use of 105 CMOS on it.

801
01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:31,780
So, but I'm wondering where the contradictory part is.

802
01:03:32,340 --> 01:03:34,580
That's the very end of the story.

803
01:03:36,620 --> 01:03:39,460
So, that talks about administering epinephrine.

804
01:03:39,460 --> 01:03:46,140
and lots of them. And then on the, and the next, at the right before the very end, it says,

805
01:03:46,340 --> 01:03:52,340
well, this is, are not authorized to make use of the mass state statute for the administration

806
01:03:52,340 --> 01:03:58,540
of emergency, the city can't. So I looked up 105 symbols. Yeah, no, I had a joke.

807
01:03:58,860 --> 01:04:01,960
I was thinking that,

808
01:04:05,830 --> 01:04:09,470
um, how can you not be authorized to do an emergency situation,

809
01:04:09,870 --> 01:04:12,890
right above it to tell you how to do it? Who's doing that?

810
01:04:12,890 --> 01:04:15,630
But these are just unlicensed school personnel.

811
01:04:16,030 --> 01:04:17,330
We'll keep going down that.

812
01:04:21,780 --> 01:04:24,220
You have to, you're allowed to stock emergency rescue.

813
01:04:24,300 --> 01:04:27,300
We're also usually used though, but...

814
01:04:27,300 --> 01:04:27,780
Yeah.

815
01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:28,920
All right, yes.

816
01:04:29,200 --> 01:04:30,460
We'll keep going down.

817
01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:31,480
Oh, yeah.

818
01:04:32,100 --> 01:04:33,080
And right there.

819
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:34,260
No.

820
01:04:34,260 --> 01:04:37,020
And actually we'd, which three you're talking about.

821
01:04:37,940 --> 01:04:38,820
Schoolness sheets are not.

822
01:04:38,820 --> 01:04:39,080
Yeah.

823
01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:42,080
It's made use of this for the administrative.

824
01:04:42,220 --> 01:04:44,220
This is,

825
01:04:46,980 --> 01:04:47,000
um,

826
01:04:49,740 --> 01:04:56,000
administration plan shall be selected by a school nurse if they make certain criteria and talk to what they do.

827
01:04:56,440 --> 01:05:00,680
And then it says the School of District May in conjunction with the School of Physicians, School of Mercer,

828
01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:04,920
Leadership, Stock Medicine, and training personnel, first responders.

829
01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:11,300
It or says neck area, if the school district wishes medical personnel to train non-medical staff in the

830
01:05:11,300 --> 01:05:14,440
administration of emergency rescue located tagging

831
01:05:14,440 --> 01:05:16,420
in the school, can you shovel up to a poops that's trained?

832
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:20,060
So it sounds like they're kind of, they have this mechanism.

833
01:05:20,740 --> 01:05:21,960
And then right below it says,

834
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:22,660
can't do it.

835
01:05:22,700 --> 01:05:26,340
No, it says, you can't make use of this section to do it.

836
01:05:26,340 --> 01:05:29,040
I don't know if there's two different ways you're doing it.

837
01:05:29,060 --> 01:05:30,820
I, this is outside my area.

838
01:05:31,100 --> 01:05:34,060
But the way I was thinking about it was that you can't rely

839
01:05:34,060 --> 01:05:36,360
on this 105 rescue medication.

840
01:05:36,380 --> 01:05:38,760
It says that you can administer stuff.

841
01:05:39,020 --> 01:05:39,660
It's good for it.

842
01:05:39,660 --> 01:05:39,940
Yes.

843
01:05:40,220 --> 01:05:40,400
OK.

844
01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:50,400
So I guess we're saying we're going to administer staff in accordance with the policy that not in accordance with what is the policy requires a school committee vote.

845
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:55,560
So if someone takes the no locks to teacher takes a class.

846
01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:55,960
Yeah.

847
01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:59,820
And it is sort of and is certified to administer no locks.

848
01:06:00,220 --> 01:06:02,040
Under this under one or five.

849
01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:05,460
No, it takes a class that the EMT is.

850
01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:11,980
And then they, then we have to vote for them to be able to administer before they can.

851
01:06:12,340 --> 01:06:13,940
No, we vote to training.

852
01:06:13,940 --> 01:06:16,420
We vote with training is sufficient, right?

853
01:06:16,420 --> 01:06:21,120
So what's going to, and it's, it's a one vote to say that the district can train.

854
01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:21,540
Okay.

855
01:06:21,740 --> 01:06:27,080
First is non, sort of non-medical personnel to administer specific education.

856
01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:31,940
And then from that vote, then the district can just train people.

857
01:06:31,940 --> 01:06:37,280
But when you what we're doing it, we didn't have that vote, then the district couldn't just go ahead.

858
01:06:37,600 --> 01:06:39,160
I think that's what this is saying.

859
01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:41,680
I mean, you could otherwise go ahead under 105.

860
01:06:41,900 --> 01:06:44,100
105 basically says you can't.

861
01:06:44,100 --> 01:06:47,100
Anyone who's kind of is just trained.

862
01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:47,480
Yep.

863
01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:48,500
Could do it.

864
01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:53,720
Yes, but so we're saying we want the policy with the vote and that process.

865
01:06:54,260 --> 01:06:57,840
Instead of just saying you can do it because 105 says you can do it.

866
01:06:58,100 --> 01:07:00,760
Well, I'm not sure that I'm right, but that was what I was saying.

867
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:08,800
All right, because that's, okay, this, I mean, this came up when the district started to keep, um,

868
01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:13,840
lots of North Carolina, North Carolina. Yeah, and we didn't have this policy, and I didn't know

869
01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:18,000
required a school committee vote. So I signed off on, and then it actually should have come before the

870
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:25,080
rules through the day. Yeah. So we'll do in September, we'll bring information to the committee for

871
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:29,440
that both. And I'll ask Beth to join us so that she can help me to feel good.

872
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:42,140
Thank you. It's done. I had to have a personal situation on administration of medication, where my daughter had a

873
01:07:42,140 --> 01:07:52,000
allergy situation. Probably we don't know, but I'm not quite sure what it was. Where the nurse said that if we

874
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:59,520
She cannot administer any kind of an assessment, unless it's provided to the school, so the

875
01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:07,500
over-toucher, you know, like, she may not provide it, and I dismiss the student to take

876
01:08:07,500 --> 01:08:13,940
for a full-dimministe, she cannot return to school that day. Because it's in Benetron.

877
01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:18,640
So,

878
01:08:21,230 --> 01:08:28,310
she said that it was a school committee policy when I don't think we actually had that policy.

879
01:08:29,930 --> 01:08:36,050
So, I am okay with the nursing that we're uncomfortable after administration, and it's just meant one.

880
01:08:36,230 --> 01:08:37,610
That's due then to remain school.

881
01:08:38,290 --> 01:08:45,410
So, it should be part of their medical training, but not necessarily being a school committee.

882
01:08:48,390 --> 01:08:56,050
And as far as the first one is concerned, do we have to say that it is, um,

883
01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:00,360
I'm looking at the exceptions.

884
01:09:01,100 --> 01:09:02,740
Do they all have to be prescription?

885
01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:09,720
And are any kind of, um, the student with asthma has to have a prescription inhaler?

886
01:09:10,780 --> 01:09:12,280
Do they all have to be prescription?

887
01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:15,160
I suppose you just approved it.

888
01:09:15,700 --> 01:09:19,800
Any, any, yeah, anything that would otherwise require

889
01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:21,920
a prescription would definitely be a prescription.

890
01:09:22,660 --> 01:09:26,600
I think some of them may be over the countermeasure.

891
01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:29,660
I think it's not, because it's, you know,

892
01:09:29,860 --> 01:09:31,920
you know, it can't be a piece of it, right?

893
01:09:32,100 --> 01:09:36,500
So we have, I know there are algae, ash and plant.

894
01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:42,260
Part of it may include benadryl or adept over the countermeasure.

895
01:09:42,260 --> 01:09:50,240
all the part of the plan, and I would say that that would be okay for the student to carry

896
01:09:50,240 --> 01:10:00,280
on their person even if it's not a description. We, yeah, we want students, they need to turn it

897
01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:04,620
into the nurse because we don't want students to be carrying around that in school. But Jenna was

898
01:10:04,620 --> 01:10:08,920
speaking even over the counter, they should be telling that. Tell me what you're giving it to us.

899
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:14,920
Okay, so we're going to kind of stuff still is limited or leaves of stuff like that.

900
01:10:16,240 --> 01:10:17,960
So we have to worry about that.

901
01:10:21,130 --> 01:10:25,890
I'm going to go ahead and move approval and adoption of policy.

902
01:10:28,150 --> 01:10:31,770
JLCD and JLCDC.

903
01:10:33,770 --> 01:10:34,170
How does it work?

904
01:10:35,470 --> 01:10:36,030
All right.

905
01:10:37,150 --> 01:10:39,130
Do you like it?

906
01:10:40,150 --> 01:10:54,150
So then we have a bunch of k, which are second reads, which are, which are, we have some k, which are seconds and some k first.

907
01:10:54,610 --> 01:10:55,310
Yes, yes.

908
01:10:56,170 --> 01:10:57,470
So I'm doing the second first.

909
01:10:58,110 --> 01:11:03,910
So, but, is included removal of Belmont policies,

910
01:11:03,910 --> 01:11:09,110
is 70005, 1023, 10101022,

911
01:11:11,190 --> 01:11:14,910
and the adoption or second rate of K-HV, which is

912
01:11:14,910 --> 01:11:20,890
advertising in the schools, K-I visitors to the schools, K-J-B partnerships with community

913
01:11:20,890 --> 01:11:24,470
organizations, which is a Belmont specific policy.

914
01:11:33,010 --> 01:11:35,510
And we did not

915
01:11:35,510 --> 01:11:42,930
approval and adoption of policies K, H, B, K, I, and K, J, B.

916
01:11:44,350 --> 01:11:45,590
Ableton, I.

917
01:11:45,830 --> 01:11:46,630
All right.

918
01:11:47,130 --> 01:11:47,630
All right.

919
01:11:47,850 --> 01:11:48,650
For L, I.

920
01:11:48,970 --> 01:11:50,390
Priority, I.

921
01:11:51,890 --> 01:11:56,390
Move approval of the removal of Belmont policies,

922
01:11:57,850 --> 01:12:02,470
705, 1023, 1010 and 1022.

923
01:12:09,300 --> 01:12:10,840
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry.

924
01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:11,560
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry.

925
01:12:12,680 --> 01:12:14,140
I got one done at once.

926
01:12:17,070 --> 01:12:18,310
We're ready, I.

927
01:12:18,630 --> 01:12:18,750
Great.

928
01:12:20,110 --> 01:12:22,450
All right, and then late breaking news,

929
01:12:22,850 --> 01:12:24,830
we high policy meeting this morning.

930
01:12:25,510 --> 01:12:28,670
So there were some first reads that we wanted to bring forward

931
01:12:28,670 --> 01:12:31,790
for your feedback that people had any,

932
01:12:32,430 --> 01:12:36,030
but we would not be bringing these back for a second right until the fall.

933
01:12:36,030 --> 01:12:44,450
So, you can see here that there was KF-R, which is more of a procedural that goes along with the community use of facilities.

934
01:12:46,430 --> 01:12:49,510
KHA public solicitations and the schools.

935
01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:56,740
And then we are recommending the removal of a bunch of Belmont specific policies.

936
01:12:58,060 --> 01:13:07,640
And I felt like this, while it does happen, these other groups don't have a policy kind of reciprocating this coordination with us.

937
01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:22,320
And it just, I don't know, it just didn't bill like necessary so that there was this long KJBA coordination with the red commission, the JEE corporation with public agencies, KLA coordination with the health department,

938
01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:29,640
and then I guess the other one that I will comment on is,

939
01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:33,400
MASC had their own cooperation with the police department.

940
01:13:34,140 --> 01:13:39,640
It was fairly extensive and especially given where we are these days.

941
01:13:41,180 --> 01:13:44,860
Matt and I do not recommend adopting the MASC one.

942
01:13:45,540 --> 01:13:51,940
Devon said it was hard to decipher which it wasn't titled police department.

943
01:13:52,220 --> 01:13:59,100
It was a long-forced law enforcement and I felt like it hit pretty close with

944
01:13:59,100 --> 01:14:01,420
but saying we're kind of cooperating with ICE.

945
01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:04,360
I mean, I just don't think that we felt comfortable

946
01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:06,500
bringing that forward at this time.

947
01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:10,020
And we already have this Belmont Policy

948
01:14:10,020 --> 01:14:11,460
cooperation with police department,

949
01:14:11,660 --> 01:14:14,440
which essentially just moralizes the fact

950
01:14:14,440 --> 01:14:16,700
that we have an MOU with our police department,

951
01:14:16,820 --> 01:14:18,740
which we do, and which we always will.

952
01:14:19,220 --> 01:14:22,260
So Matt and I recommend retaining the Belmont

953
01:14:22,260 --> 01:14:26,080
specific KLG policy for that reason.

954
01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:35,900
So we recommend voting it in, yeah, so that we retain it.

955
01:14:37,920 --> 01:14:39,480
So those were the ones that were discussed this morning.

956
01:14:39,660 --> 01:14:43,580
If you have an immediate feedback, happy to take it. Otherwise, we can sit with it this summer.

957
01:14:44,180 --> 01:14:45,500
Okay, after that, sure.

958
01:14:49,230 --> 01:14:52,370
I'm a little confused with some things.

959
01:14:53,830 --> 01:14:59,130
It says community use of school facilities and says school buildings, crowns, equipment and facilities.

960
01:14:59,710 --> 01:14:59,970
Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video.

961
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:04,580
So I'm planning to figure out what facilities are if they don't include building grounds for it, put that.

962
01:15:09,320 --> 01:15:10,680
I mean.

963
01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:10,980
I mean.

964
01:15:10,980 --> 01:15:15,380
We usually choose it, so facilities don't include building grounds for it, put that.

965
01:15:15,440 --> 01:15:18,160
I think the facilities we always use it as an umbrella term.

966
01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:25,420
So I think it's just in here to capture anything that may it can not include it in those three categories.

967
01:15:25,840 --> 01:15:31,120
But when we say facilities, we often use it as an umbrella term of anything that is in school property.

968
01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:40,340
I want to clarify that somewhat. That also, it's the number two, is poop facilities may not be used for an individual purpose or so I can't play fantasy whimper anymore.

969
01:15:48,460 --> 01:15:51,780
Well, again, I'm confused all these.

970
01:15:51,780 --> 01:15:52,980
The terms are systems.

971
01:15:53,380 --> 01:15:56,800
Yeah, I think the two is actually geared more towards the buildings.

972
01:15:57,300 --> 01:15:59,120
Like, so we could clarify that certainly.

973
01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:08,200
So yeah, for instance, like our naming policy, just as buildings and frowns.

974
01:16:08,200 --> 01:16:11,540
and it can include things within the building on the ground.

975
01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:14,600
But we don't have equipment or facilities,

976
01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:16,740
meaning it doesn't that fall, say.

977
01:16:19,400 --> 01:16:21,780
I just want to keep my option to put some sort of work.

978
01:16:22,480 --> 01:16:23,860
I'm going to try to do it.

979
01:16:23,860 --> 01:16:26,240
We also remember 10 sports or not ours.

980
01:16:27,120 --> 01:16:28,080
So, no, no.

981
01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:28,420
No, no, no.

982
01:16:28,640 --> 01:16:29,720
How about the track?

983
01:16:30,100 --> 01:16:31,280
There are 10 types of cars.

984
01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:33,280
Talk about it.

985
01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:34,840
OK, so I can't use the track.

986
01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:37,720
You should be paying a fee for that.

987
01:16:40,320 --> 01:16:46,140
We can clarify that so we might have a good clarification for us.

988
01:16:46,460 --> 01:16:56,040
My thinking is that if school facilities fields out to our areas that are not within a building

989
01:16:56,040 --> 01:17:03,280
or not, it's a 24-7, if those are not being used for their community, individual group of individuals

990
01:17:03,280 --> 01:17:08,860
uses those facilities, I would say we wouldn't know about that, but I would say if someone

991
01:17:08,860 --> 01:17:13,100
is using school facilities that had been in your approach by a group that has been permitted

992
01:17:13,100 --> 01:17:17,680
to use that space, we're going to ask you not to leave that space.

993
01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:20,540
Wow, the permanent group to use that space.

994
01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:21,180
That's fine.

995
01:17:21,440 --> 01:17:26,540
I don't mind, yeah, but I just, I don't want to be breaking the lie every time I walk on the

996
01:17:26,540 --> 01:17:27,120
track.

997
01:17:27,560 --> 01:17:29,220
I've been by the gym classes before.

998
01:17:29,460 --> 01:17:30,060
That's fine.

999
01:17:30,460 --> 01:17:33,060
During school time or something like that, that's fine.

1000
01:17:33,500 --> 01:17:37,200
Well, I can see the potential confusion.

1001
01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:41,700
So I think that that's we can go back and have that conversation and Matt crap. There's also great at like

1002
01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:50,580
Pretty word. Yeah, and I know there used to be loads of Mr. So-and-so's Jim party through something at where do you have to share that

1003
01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:55,220
Those are our most real legal now. No, you wouldn't have to drive it

1004
01:17:56,660 --> 01:18:03,860
It's the thing. Well, I want to. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm not being used for private and that whole summer for purpose. Who should come out completely

1005
01:18:05,940 --> 01:18:11,900
because you've already talked about who can use community facilities in the KF policy.

1006
01:18:12,460 --> 01:18:16,340
This is supposed to just be a procedure. So why are we getting into the

1007
01:18:16,340 --> 01:18:21,180
communities? We did have the conversation about the preparedness of the policy in the

1008
01:18:21,180 --> 01:18:26,980
procedure, but in an MSC pushes back there. But it is inconsistent, because we,

1009
01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:31,340
because it also says in KF that the school committee can approve other things.

1010
01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:36,440
So, questions should we remove two, can you check on that?

1011
01:18:37,340 --> 01:18:47,320
And we also just approved this whole fee schedule with the idea that we've got dance schools coming in there and they're trying to jump on the chairs and we're going to charge it so that we can present.

1012
01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:48,560
Yeah.

1013
01:18:51,640 --> 01:19:00,340
Is there anything else I just noted that for the, the word facilities and number two, are there any other numbers you want us to look at?

1014
01:19:00,340 --> 01:19:06,100
So for the do that caught my mind, it was after that, it didn't take a chance to put it up.

1015
01:19:06,120 --> 01:19:08,500
But no alcohol in the village.

1016
01:19:09,820 --> 01:19:22,090
Yes, the age. I mean, we're talking about, you know, if you have this amazing smell,

1017
01:19:22,650 --> 01:19:27,570
we're somebody who's had up or wasn't, but it's still prohibited.

1018
01:19:28,410 --> 01:19:35,510
We're not going to read through somebody who want to have a off-ball like the big phasal dry school.

1019
01:19:35,550 --> 01:19:36,470
It's a dry school.

1020
01:19:36,950 --> 01:19:37,310
I'm sorry.

1021
01:19:37,530 --> 01:19:38,950
So what are you asking that?

1022
01:19:38,950 --> 01:19:40,570
I just wanted to ask.

1023
01:19:41,590 --> 01:19:41,750
Yeah.

1024
01:19:41,910 --> 01:19:43,710
Did they have it all up to Belmont?

1025
01:19:43,770 --> 01:19:46,570
That's why the FB and stuff doesn't have very...

1026
01:19:48,380 --> 01:19:48,660
Okay.

1027
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:50,440
I don't think that's a Belmont decision.

1028
01:19:50,800 --> 01:19:50,860
No.

1029
01:19:50,940 --> 01:19:51,740
It's just Facebook.

1030
01:19:53,120 --> 01:19:53,780
I have to check.

1031
01:19:53,780 --> 01:19:56,300
I have to look at the number of them each.

1032
01:19:59,760 --> 01:20:03,520
There may be some exceptions allowed through that. I'm not sure I'd have to.

1033
01:20:03,580 --> 01:20:05,200
Number eight, but we can check on it.

1034
01:20:05,400 --> 01:20:08,480
Yeah, I would expect there's a proper permit that's.

1035
01:20:09,160 --> 01:20:12,620
I don't think they can't in a public school building, but I can check too.

1036
01:20:16,070 --> 01:20:17,490
I'd be some summer work for everyone.

1037
01:20:18,350 --> 01:20:19,030
Thank you, Chuck.

1038
01:20:20,870 --> 01:20:21,730
Have a look briefly.

1039
01:20:24,630 --> 01:20:26,690
All right, this feels like a nap on that.

1040
01:20:26,690 --> 01:20:31,690
So, I think if you have more comments, please feel free to email them.

1041
01:20:33,070 --> 01:20:34,090
Moving on.

1042
01:20:34,810 --> 01:20:38,850
Are there any subcommittee earliest on updates this evening?

1043
01:20:39,970 --> 01:20:42,690
I mean, what's happening with the, uh, I still don't know.

1044
01:20:43,390 --> 01:20:43,850
I am.

1045
01:20:43,850 --> 01:20:45,930
And we have a meeting a couple of weeks ago.

1046
01:20:46,630 --> 01:20:48,150
And we approved a few invoices.

1047
01:20:49,330 --> 01:20:53,850
And there, I think they're in there, like final line down phase,

1048
01:20:53,850 --> 01:20:58,530
but there's still, there's still state money that is, you know, not completely resolved,

1049
01:20:58,830 --> 01:21:02,990
but I think on some of that last delivery of births, so it is like, I think we're going to

1050
01:21:02,990 --> 01:21:08,010
meet again for the end of the summer, and it's gone on a really long time. I mean, I've been on this

1051
01:21:08,010 --> 01:21:11,810
committee since I joined this school committee, which is like three and a half years almost,

1052
01:21:12,070 --> 01:21:19,850
and this school was formed built when I joined it, and it's still there. And John, you need to get

1053
01:21:19,850 --> 01:21:24,190
a point to cap it all if you would like to be right so we can help it that on the agenda

1054
01:21:24,190 --> 01:21:25,430
for the retreat.

1055
01:21:26,070 --> 01:21:31,150
Actually, I think my point, but I teach you, I teach you, so we're not going to have a

1056
01:21:31,150 --> 01:21:34,210
patient just 10 years later, so I need to get a little bit right now, okay?

1057
01:21:34,450 --> 01:21:40,230
Yeah, technically the way it works, too, is that if you don't reappoint the person, it

1058
01:21:40,230 --> 01:21:44,370
just kind of can use your perpetual amount of money.

1059
01:21:45,770 --> 01:21:48,590
I don't know if you like vote, but I don't think they're planning on voting anything.

1060
01:21:48,590 --> 01:21:57,640
But I know that I have that appointment letter for June to June, so.

1061
01:21:58,680 --> 01:21:59,160
Yeah.

1062
01:21:59,500 --> 01:22:01,020
Oh, we will reappoint you.

1063
01:22:01,520 --> 01:22:03,320
I don't think it'll be a problem at all.

1064
01:22:03,760 --> 01:22:04,720
At their age.

1065
01:22:04,900 --> 01:22:06,100
You don't know if we're good.

1066
01:22:06,420 --> 01:22:06,620
Yeah.

1067
01:22:07,040 --> 01:22:09,480
Hopefully, we're going to try to add you out.

1068
01:22:10,100 --> 01:22:11,700
I have to find more things.

1069
01:22:12,780 --> 01:22:15,680
Any other subject here with us on updates?

1070
01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:18,180
I have a work made evening now.

1071
01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:19,720
I'm just sorry.

1072
01:22:24,970 --> 01:22:28,890
And then we do have a consent agenda this evening.

1073
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:40,540
I don't want to comment on that. I'm going to go ahead, and I'm going to move approval of the consent agenda.

1074
01:22:40,540 --> 01:22:41,580
That can't.

1075
01:22:42,560 --> 01:22:43,940
I would do it.

1076
01:22:43,940 --> 01:22:44,840
All right.

1077
01:22:45,660 --> 01:22:46,380
You want to go.

1078
01:22:46,420 --> 01:22:48,320
It's a parallel line.

1079
01:22:48,800 --> 01:22:48,960
Yeah.

1080
01:22:50,700 --> 01:22:53,100
And that was just for some surplus equipment.

1081
01:22:54,000 --> 01:22:56,600
I will note that the.

1082
01:22:57,300 --> 01:23:05,520
This is related to the win broke cafeteria renovation that I sent to the community a couple weeks ago, which is looks really amazing.

1083
01:23:06,140 --> 01:23:07,520
Yeah, so some people were great.

1084
01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:11,840
And we were been contacted because it's not maybe all over each out.

1085
01:23:12,220 --> 01:23:14,580
Remember that really nice was it East folk?

1086
01:23:14,980 --> 01:23:15,320
Yes.

1087
01:23:16,040 --> 01:23:19,640
The teacher's room in the Windbrook that they've reached out about doing any others.

1088
01:23:19,700 --> 01:23:24,180
Because I do remember when I wrote to him, he was like, we're happy to help out our talk.

1089
01:23:24,460 --> 01:23:24,640
To book through.

1090
01:23:25,060 --> 01:23:25,280
Right.

1091
01:23:25,820 --> 01:23:26,840
Oh, you tried to.

1092
01:23:27,740 --> 01:23:29,540
I said I tried to take it.

1093
01:23:29,900 --> 01:23:31,260
Third time was probably not.

1094
01:23:32,100 --> 01:23:32,660
You're strong.

1095
01:23:34,060 --> 01:23:34,840
Just tenacious.

1096
01:23:36,260 --> 01:23:36,680
Yeah.

1097
01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:39,440
So now we do try to scrounge.

1098
01:23:40,240 --> 01:23:40,760
Yeah.

1099
01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:41,960
That's a surplus fault.

1100
01:23:42,240 --> 01:23:42,960
Yo, you're technical.

1101
01:23:44,060 --> 01:23:44,440
Yes.

1102
01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:46,880
Yeah, those were very current.

1103
01:23:47,440 --> 01:23:48,620
In 1984 dictionary.

1104
01:23:50,860 --> 01:23:52,020
I'm going to deal with those.

1105
01:23:52,220 --> 01:23:52,480
They're funding.

1106
01:23:52,660 --> 01:23:54,000
We can get some new books.

1107
01:23:54,400 --> 01:23:54,660
Yeah.

1108
01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:55,320
People really.

1109
01:23:55,540 --> 01:23:57,260
But people use hard copy pictures.

1110
01:23:57,520 --> 01:23:58,140
Any more?

1111
01:23:58,440 --> 01:23:58,700
Yeah.

1112
01:23:58,700 --> 01:24:01,260
