Um the board will not take 212 00:22:46,799 --> 00:22:48,799 final action or have discussion on items 213 00:22:48,799 --> 00:22:50,720 presented during public comment unless 214 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,240 the item is already on the meeting 215 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,720 agenda. If additional studies needed to 216 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,640 respond adequate adequately to the 217 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,720 questions or comments, the resident may 218 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,880 receive a written response. The written 219 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,720 response may be read publicly at the 220 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,760 next regular meeting of the board. Due 221 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,760 to the rights of privacy of employees of 222 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,200 the district, the board of education 223 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,039 will not allow public comments on 224 00:23:11,039 --> 00:23:13,440 specific employee appointments, 225 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,240 employment, or performance at this time. 226 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:17,760 Questions and complaints or charges 227 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,520 against particular employees are to be 228 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:20,960 referred to the superintendent for 229 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,720 action consistent with the law and or 230 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,880 district policy. 231 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:31,029 And Mr. Sthalt, 232 00:23:31,039 --> 00:23:32,240 » before we get started, I'm just 233 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:37,110 wondering is this important? 234 00:23:37,120 --> 00:23:39,120 » I don't know if this is on. 235 00:23:39,120 --> 00:23:41,840 >> It's not if that's sitting on top. 236 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,880 >> Okay. So, but you're still going to be 237 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,200 recorded and you have a get decent 238 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,039 enough voice to project. So, 239 00:23:49,039 --> 00:23:49,280 >> okay, 240 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,799 >> I think you'll be fine. 241 00:23:52,799 --> 00:23:54,799 >> The amount of misinformation dealt out 242 00:23:54,799 --> 00:23:57,039 by the school board at the last meeting 243 00:23:57,039 --> 00:24:00,159 is astounding. One statement from your f 244 00:24:00,159 --> 00:24:03,200 February 25th, 2026 working session 245 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:04,960 stood out to me. During that meeting, 246 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,039 this board acknowledged that it had lost 247 00:24:07,039 --> 00:24:09,039 the public's trust. And yet, despite 248 00:24:09,039 --> 00:24:10,799 this and overwhelming evidence to the 249 00:24:10,799 --> 00:24:13,360 contrary, this board continues to act as 250 00:24:13,360 --> 00:24:14,640 though the public supports your 251 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,720 decisions. The facts tell a different 252 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,440 story. Last month, you argued that the 253 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,559 no vote in the 2024 bond election wasn't 254 00:24:22,559 --> 00:24:24,080 representative because not everyone 255 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,159 voted down the ballot. But the numbers 256 00:24:26,159 --> 00:24:28,880 tell a different story. Nearly 70% of 257 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,440 those who voted on the board on the bond 258 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,679 rejected it. Even when compared to all 259 00:24:33,679 --> 00:24:35,600 ballots cast in the election, the 260 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,760 opposition still represented well over 261 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,039 60% of registered voters, not just those 262 00:24:41,039 --> 00:24:43,919 who voted. When divided evenly across 263 00:24:43,919 --> 00:24:46,480 the school board districts, more people 264 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:48,640 voted against the bond than voted for 265 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,400 each of you. Then came the 37% t 266 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,640 property tax increase. Hundreds of 267 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,799 residents spoke against it and more than 268 00:24:56,799 --> 00:24:59,679 7,000 citizens signed a petition so the 269 00:24:59,679 --> 00:25:01,760 public, not just this board, could 270 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:04,000 decide the issue. Yet, you dismissed 271 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,720 that effort by being as being 272 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,679 insufficient evidence of public opinion. 273 00:25:09,679 --> 00:25:12,320 Let's review the evidence. More than 60% 274 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,159 of registered voters voted against the 275 00:25:14,159 --> 00:25:17,520 bond. Hundreds publicly opposed the tax 276 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,159 increase and more than 7,000 citizens 277 00:25:20,159 --> 00:25:22,000 signed a petition requesting a public 278 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,159 vote. Rather than letting the voters 279 00:25:24,159 --> 00:25:26,559 decide, the board chose a more expensive 280 00:25:26,559 --> 00:25:29,039 lease purchase agreement. Now, even 281 00:25:29,039 --> 00:25:32,240 though the financing doesn't require the 282 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,279 full 37% tax increase, the tenative 283 00:25:35,279 --> 00:25:37,600 budget keeps the entire increase in 284 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,159 place while also reducing the capital 285 00:25:40,159 --> 00:25:42,880 fund instead of proposing tax relief or 286 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:44,799 saving up. 287 00:25:44,799 --> 00:25:47,600 If this spending is truly unavoidable, I 288 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,279 have to wonder what this budget would 289 00:25:49,279 --> 00:25:51,360 look like had citizens not gathered 290 00:25:51,360 --> 00:25:53,279 enough signatures to force a vote on the 291 00:25:53,279 --> 00:25:55,760 lease revenue bond. One school board 292 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,000 member expressed that she felt extorted. 293 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,000 That is exactly how the public felt 294 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,559 after voting no on the bond. If you do 295 00:26:02,559 --> 00:26:04,400 not do what we want you to do, the 296 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,440 outcome will be worse. And to those who 297 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,679 question whether 7,000 signatures were 298 00:26:09,679 --> 00:26:11,440 meaningful, I'd like to offer a 299 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,760 challenge. I invite this board to gather 300 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,159 signatures from 20% of registered voters 301 00:26:16,159 --> 00:26:18,559 in just 30 days in the middle of the 302 00:26:18,559 --> 00:26:21,520 winter and during the holiday season. I 303 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,279 highly doubt you could garner such 304 00:26:23,279 --> 00:26:25,840 support. Finally, the board approved 305 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,559 spending approximately $500,000 to 306 00:26:28,559 --> 00:26:31,039 install artificial turf on a softball 307 00:26:31,039 --> 00:26:33,279 field. We've been told it will save 308 00:26:33,279 --> 00:26:35,200 money, but the math doesn't seem to 309 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,360 support that claim. If the expected 310 00:26:37,360 --> 00:26:39,600 maintenance savings are about 20,000 per 311 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,000 year, it would take roughly 25 years to 312 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,640 recover the cost. Yet, artificial turf 313 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,720 used for athletics is typically expected 314 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,279 to last only 10 to 12 years before 315 00:26:49,279 --> 00:26:51,279 replacement. In other words, the field 316 00:26:51,279 --> 00:26:53,200 would likely need to be replaced two 317 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,240 times before taxpayers break even. You 318 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,240 acknowledge the public's trust has been 319 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,720 lost. Trust is rebuilt by following the 320 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,799 evidence, exercising fiscal discipline, 321 00:27:02,799 --> 00:27:04,480 and allowing the people, not 322 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,480 assumptions, to guide major financial 323 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:10,880 decisions. I hope this board chooses that path in the future, but I'm 324 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,400 not holding my breath. 325 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,120 >> All right. Thank you. Moving on um to 326 00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:21,520 action items. So that is G1. 327 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,880 Um the approval of the sex education 328 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:39,350 committee. Mr. WY. 329 00:27:39,360 --> 00:27:40,640 I just have to speak loud, right, 330 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:41,520 Robert? 331 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,080 >> Yeah. Good. You're just not going to be 332 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,799 amplified in the room. She'll be fine. 333 00:27:46,799 --> 00:27:49,919 That's cuz I got a good loud voice. Um, 334 00:27:49,919 --> 00:27:54,640 so, uh, I I'm Ben Wy. I'm uh over sexed 335 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,559 here in our sex ed curriculum here in 336 00:27:56,559 --> 00:27:59,600 our district. Um every year by state 337 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,080 statute, I need to come before the board 338 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:07,360 and um ask uh that you approve 339 00:28:07,360 --> 00:28:10,799 um a sex education curriculum material 340 00:28:10,799 --> 00:28:13,760 review committee. Um and you guys, you 341 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,520 can see that on your screens. We 342 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,279 actually have a district policy policy 343 00:28:17,279 --> 00:28:21,279 4105. Um and in that in section G it 344 00:28:21,279 --> 00:28:24,720 talks about um that our school board 345 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,159 needs to approve a committee and the the 346 00:28:28,159 --> 00:28:29,679 components of this committee are 347 00:28:29,679 --> 00:28:31,440 parents, health care professionals, 348 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:32,720 school health educators and 349 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,120 administrators. Um and the purpose of 350 00:28:35,120 --> 00:28:38,000 this committee is to meet to determine 351 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,840 any new u potentially new curriculum 352 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,320 that someone might have. Um I can give 353 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:45,919 you an example. Last year, even though 354 00:28:45,919 --> 00:28:47,760 we had this committee, the committee 355 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,200 never saw or reviewed any new material 356 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:54,000 because ne none was ever brought before 357 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,039 um us as a committee to be taught. Um 358 00:28:57,039 --> 00:28:59,760 our our educators teach what has been 359 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,919 approved by the state and there were no 360 00:29:01,919 --> 00:29:06,159 other um additional um attempts I guess 361 00:29:06,159 --> 00:29:10,480 or uh requests to add any curriculum. Um 362 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:15,760 and and so um it is that is what I'm 363 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,799 I guess requesting is a motion to 364 00:29:18,799 --> 00:29:21,600 approve this committee. Um you can see 365 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:25,279 the list there. Um um and all of our 366 00:29:25,279 --> 00:29:26,960 either whether they're parents or their 367 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:28,320 administrators or healthcare 368 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,039 professionals. Um these are all all 369 00:29:31,039 --> 00:29:32,880 almost exactly the same committee that 370 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,120 we had last year. Several of I shouldn't 371 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,640 say several, a few of the committee 372 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,000 members either got new assignments, aka 373 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,640 our superintendent was on the committee. 374 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,159 He is no longer on that committee. Um AJ 375 00:29:46,159 --> 00:29:47,600 Gilmore, who will be sitting in that 376 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,279 chair in the future, is now on the 377 00:29:49,279 --> 00:29:55,600 committee. That's just one example uh of a change. Um 378 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,480 are there any questions by the board? 379 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,159 >> When was the last time the committee 380 00:30:00,159 --> 00:30:04,399 met? Um I cannot speak to that because I 381 00:30:04,399 --> 00:30:07,039 only uh received this opportunity last 382 00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:08,799 year and we did not meet at all last 383 00:30:08,799 --> 00:30:11,120 year.

Um, so, uh, you'll see the 412 00:31:14,799 --> 00:31:16,159 difference between someone who likes 413 00:31:16,159 --> 00:31:18,399 color and someone who doesn't like color 414 00:31:18,399 --> 00:31:20,320 really quickly in these presentations. 415 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,720 Mine was black and white. I don't see 416 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:27,840 orange and red very well. Um so um so 417 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,880 these are some of our our data um Megan 418 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,200 Bushnell has pulled um you can see in 419 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,159 her first slide um those are the the 420 00:31:36,159 --> 00:31:38,320 district data that is that we have in 421 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,440 educators handbook um also known as EH 422 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,519 uh commonly known as EH. You can see 423 00:31:43,519 --> 00:31:45,679 that our minor offenses are down and so 424 00:31:45,679 --> 00:31:48,960 are our office referrals. Um, and some 425 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,200 of that will be explained in in just a 426 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,919 few slides. Um, four slides I think to 427 00:31:53,919 --> 00:31:56,799 be specific. Um, even though there were 428 00:31:56,799 --> 00:32:00,159 5,000 off office referrals, ne next 429 00:32:00,159 --> 00:32:03,840 slide. Um, only 3% of those actually 430 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,840 were classified as bullying and 431 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,760 harassment. And that's out of the office 432 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,200 referrals. If you look at the full 433 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,840 12,000 from minor and office referrals, 434 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,399 bullying and harassment represents 1.2%. 435 00:32:16,399 --> 00:32:19,440 2% of all the referrals but to our admin 436 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:24,240 in 2025 which or in 2020 202526 437 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,320 year which is down from the previous 438 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,519 year which was 3.4%. 439 00:32:29,519 --> 00:32:32,000 >> An office referral could be for 440 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,120 anything. 441 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,960 >> That's correct. It's usually a I would 442 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,519 say an aggravated, but it's an elevated 443 00:32:39,519 --> 00:32:42,000 referral. Um because there can be minor 444 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,760 offenses that teachers deal with in 445 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,559 their classroom multiple times before it 446 00:32:46,559 --> 00:32:48,880 elevates to an office referral. But yes, 447 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:50,799 an office referral can be for anything, 448 00:32:50,799 --> 00:32:53,600 not just like harassment, harassment and 449 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,200 both. Absolutely. Great question. Um 450 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,440 Megan uh dove into the data and she 451 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,600 broke down those incidences that were in 452 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,240 educator educator handbook. Um and there 453 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,200 you can see those are the breakouts for 454 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:08,720 all the different harassments and 455 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:10,880 bullying and they are all broken out 456 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,080 that way so that administrators 457 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:17,440 um can label the harassment properly if 458 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:18,880 that makes sense. And that there there 459 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,600 is a huge reason for that. Not just to 460 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,919 make sure we identify it and properly 461 00:33:23,919 --> 00:33:26,240 take care of it, but the state um also 462 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,320 on several reports that Megan fills out 463 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,440 needs to know these exact numbers. Um 464 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:36,480 and is a b on a basis of so that's 465 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,519 what that means. Um the next slide Megan 466 00:33:39,519 --> 00:33:41,440 broke out by school. So you could 467 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,200 actually see if you'll hover over the 468 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,000 well you can see on the bar graph but if 469 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,440 you Oh you can't. Never mind. On my p on 470 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:50,960 my computer, when you hover over those 471 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:52,640 cool little bars, you could actually 472 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,519 it'll tell you the exact percentage. Um, 473 00:33:55,519 --> 00:33:58,080 you can see that there are 474 00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,440 elementarymentaries are doing a really 475 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,720 good job of staying low. Um, and in the 476 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,039 next slide I I will kind of go into 477 00:34:05,039 --> 00:34:07,760 depth as to why that is. Perfect. So, 478 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,079 the next steps for student services um 479 00:34:10,079 --> 00:34:12,960 that Megan wants to focus on um and I'll 480 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,520 point out number two. Um she's done well 481 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:16,960 first she's done a really good job of 482 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,560 training staff and admin to accurately 483 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,399 report what is harassment and what is 484 00:34:22,399 --> 00:34:25,520 bullying. Um and and that is very 485 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,079 important that we can identify it so 486 00:34:28,079 --> 00:34:30,399 then we can take care of it properly. Um 487 00:34:30,399 --> 00:34:34,320 two, elementary schools really do have a 488 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:38,879 tier one um 489 00:34:38,879 --> 00:34:41,839 component for 490 00:34:41,839 --> 00:34:44,399 um dealing with bullying and harassment. 491 00:34:44,399 --> 00:34:46,480 Um she would like to improve that and 492 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:50,159 continue to um improve not not just 493 00:34:50,159 --> 00:34:53,440 improve that that make it more 494 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,919 holistic. Um we are going to start a 495 00:34:55,919 --> 00:34:58,720 what's called mascot. Um and our 496 00:34:58,720 --> 00:35:00,880 elementary counselors are going to help 497 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:05,040 um bring that online. Um that way um 498 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:06,800 those incidences that are happening in 499 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,000 elementary have a more holistic um 500 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,560 approach to dealing with the harassment 501 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,160 rather than just a penalty or a 502 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,480 punishment if that makes sense. Um 503 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:20,800 >> mascot skills. Ma mascot is an acronym 504 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,119 and and I and I'm sure one of you is 505 00:35:23,119 --> 00:35:25,359 going to ask what that stands for and 506 00:35:25,359 --> 00:35:26,800 that's where I'm going to be like uh 507 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:28,320 this is where Megan would be much better 508 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,440 at this presentation than me. Um but I 509 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,160 will uh make sure that she gets that 510 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:35,920 information out to you so that you are 511 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,480 all in the know. Um it is a program that 512 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:39,280 we have purchased. 513 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:40,960 >> Is her dad okay? 514 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,440 >> Um you ready? Oh, wait. Nope. Sorry, 515 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,240 Megan. Uh, I know this because uh me and 516 00:35:46,240 --> 00:35:48,880 Megan share a secretary. Um, she has 517 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,119 already started scheduling her 518 00:35:51,119 --> 00:35:53,040 administrative visits with all of her 519 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:56,160 elementary schools. Um, she tries to hit 520 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,000 all of them three if not four times if 521 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,400 her schedule allows. And that's just for 522 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,160 observations. That has nothing to do 523 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,200 with an actual uh referral or or an 524 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,720 issue or a safe school um finding. um th 525 00:36:08,720 --> 00:36:11,920 those are um appointments or visits that 526 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,680 she has so that she can visit with 527 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,400 counselors and admin just looking at 528 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,880 educator handbook data um and so that 529 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,920 she can have uh an open conversation and 530 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,599 try and improve things. Um, number four, 531 00:36:25,599 --> 00:36:27,440 um, me and her are working because I'm 532 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,880 over secondary counselors. Um, we do not 533 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:35,119 currently have, uh, the tier one, um, 534 00:36:35,119 --> 00:36:37,200 component like elementary have in our 535 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,599 secondary schools. Um, there are some 536 00:36:39,599 --> 00:36:41,839 bright shiny moments. As far as a 537 00:36:41,839 --> 00:36:43,920 complete and total tier one, we are 538 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,440 working towards that with seven 539 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:49,119 mindsets. Um, and that is a focus of our 540 00:36:49,119 --> 00:36:51,040 uh, counselor training this this coming 541 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,079 August. and finally work to implement a 542 00:36:54,079 --> 00:36:56,880 contact consultant plan um if that's 543 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:58,640 possible in the in the coming year. 544 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,880 We've got some pretty lofty goals. So, 545 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,760 we'll see if we get get that far. Um 546 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,160 that is our report. That's Megan's 547 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:11,349 report. Any questions? 548 00:37:11,359 --> 00:37:12,560 » I do. 549 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,280 >> I have a question in the graph part and 550 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:15,920 I don't really 551 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:17,440 >> Yes. Go ahead. Back to the graph. Yep. 552 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,040 >> In the graph. 553 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:23,280 >> Yes. It seems very interesting. I mean, 554 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:24,960 I'm just curious with Boxeller Middle 555 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:26,240 School and B River Middle School, 556 00:37:26,240 --> 00:37:29,040 there's a huge difference there. Is that 557 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,599 because they report it differently? I 558 00:37:31,599 --> 00:37:33,280 can't imagine it being that much 559 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:34,480 different. 560 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,599 >> Um, that's a great question. Um, there 561 00:37:37,599 --> 00:37:40,079 are, having been in schools in the 562 00:37:40,079 --> 00:37:41,920 trenches, you'd be surprised how there 563 00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:45,839 are es and flows. um one one year, same 564 00:37:45,839 --> 00:37:48,160 admin, same teachers, you could have a 565 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,240 class move in and at the start of the 566 00:37:50,240 --> 00:37:52,160 year you'll have a massive amount of 567 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,720 vapes, which are office referrals. Um 568 00:37:54,720 --> 00:37:57,119 and yet you can have the very next year 569 00:37:57,119 --> 00:38:00,160 there's hardly any vapes. Um and so 570 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,560 there's there I I wish there was rhyme 571 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:04,320 and reason to say, "Oh, there's yeah, 572 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:05,599 there's a reason why there's more in 573 00:38:05,599 --> 00:38:08,560 that school than that." But there's it's 574 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,200 just a difference in student body. Um 575 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,760 the admin have been trained to report 576 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,200 the what the issue is a accurately.

Well, that's because we have so 608 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,400 many account combinations required by 609 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,480 the state board. 610 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,040 So process updating those budgets. Uh 611 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:38,560 we're also in the process of closing out 612 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:40,640 the fiscal year. So we this time of year 613 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,640 we're working on um posting payroll for 614 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,400 two the last two pay periods of the 615 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:50,240 year. So for the district office staff 616 00:39:50,240 --> 00:39:54,000 we are paid on a fiscal year. Whereas 617 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,960 for teachers their contracts run from 618 00:39:56,960 --> 00:40:00,000 the August 15th thereabouts through the 619 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,960 end of July. So, but they're paid on a 620 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,119 on they work out 9 months, but they're 621 00:40:05,119 --> 00:40:07,599 paid on a 12-month contract. So, that 622 00:40:07,599 --> 00:40:09,280 last pay period, the last check they 623 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,440 received actually belongs in the prior 624 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:13,839 fiscal year. So, we're working on 625 00:40:13,839 --> 00:40:16,079 accounting for all these expenses. In 626 00:40:16,079 --> 00:40:18,400 addition, making sure all of our uh our 627 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,359 debts, our charges for services that we 628 00:40:21,359 --> 00:40:24,720 incur are put in fiscal year. 629 00:40:24,720 --> 00:40:26,720 Additionally, we have to report our 630 00:40:26,720 --> 00:40:30,240 budgets passed by the board uh by this 631 00:40:30,240 --> 00:40:32,640 Friday to the state board of education. 632 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:34,240 There's a lot of work that goes into 633 00:40:34,240 --> 00:40:36,720 preparing to begin a new fiscal year. 634 00:40:36,720 --> 00:40:39,119 So, there's not much new in this fiscal 635 00:40:39,119 --> 00:40:41,520 financial report here other than to say 636 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,760 that we're on target for budgets. This 637 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:45,520 report does not reflect the budget 638 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,160 updates that the board passed last month 639 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:49,599 because of the time it takes to get them 640 00:40:49,599 --> 00:40:52,640 inputed and reconciled and uh prepare 641 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:54,400 these reports. So, 642 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,200 Next month we should have a better 643 00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,079 snapshot of the completeness of where we 644 00:41:00,079 --> 00:41:02,400 stand financially. 645 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,560 As we go as you if there's any lines you 646 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,160 have questions on I can answer those but 647 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:08,560 there's nothing really of significance 648 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:12,319 here to report. Um in August about 649 00:41:12,319 --> 00:41:14,560 August 17th our audit starts. So 650 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,079 Squiring Company will be here in the 651 00:41:16,079 --> 00:41:18,240 office for about a week. They will be 652 00:41:18,240 --> 00:41:19,839 going through our our financial 653 00:41:19,839 --> 00:41:22,079 statements, our records, requesting 654 00:41:22,079 --> 00:41:24,160 samples for invoices and other 655 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,560 compliance requirements. Uh this year 656 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,560 the special education program will 657 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,119 receive what we call a single audit. 658 00:41:31,119 --> 00:41:32,240 That means that the department of 659 00:41:32,240 --> 00:41:35,040 education has set forth requirements for 660 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,640 that program and federally and the 661 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,640 auditor will be reviewing that program 662 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,720 to make sure we fulfilled our compliance 663 00:41:42,720 --> 00:41:44,720 requirements both fiscally and 664 00:41:44,720 --> 00:41:47,280 programmatically. Last year, title one 665 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,280 was selected for that audit and they 666 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,200 went through and sampled a few different 667 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,599 program requirements. One of which is 668 00:41:53,599 --> 00:41:55,520 are we do we are we transferring 669 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:57,440 students appropriately between title one 670 00:41:57,440 --> 00:41:59,359 schools or out of title one schools. We 671 00:41:59,359 --> 00:42:01,119 have evidence that we're doing that. We 672 00:42:01,119 --> 00:42:03,040 do the same kind of work here. Select 673 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,119 programmatic requirements, sample them 674 00:42:05,119 --> 00:42:06,640 and determine if we're compliant or not. 675 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,640 Last year we were compliant with our 676 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,359 title one program. I suspect we'll be 677 00:42:11,359 --> 00:42:13,359 compliant as well with our special ed 678 00:42:13,359 --> 00:42:15,280 program. I have no indications of any 679 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:17,359 non-compliance that have been brought to 680 00:42:17,359 --> 00:42:19,839 my attention. So, we'll be working that 681 00:42:19,839 --> 00:42:22,079 process starting in August. It's going 682 00:42:22,079 --> 00:42:25,119 to go through October 1 is when we have 683 00:42:25,119 --> 00:42:28,400 to have the financial report submitted 684 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,520 to USB. Then the auditors will work on 685 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,520 preparing any audit findings 686 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:35,520 programmatically for the single audit 687 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:39,359 act and that is due by November 30th. So 688 00:42:39,359 --> 00:42:41,280 in December, we'll have a complete 689 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:45,040 snapsh snapshot, excuse me, of all our 690 00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:48,000 activities both programmatically and 691 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,400 fiscally to report to the board in 692 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,280 December.

I just wanted to explain this a 728 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:18,560 little bit so that you would have a 729 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:22,240 context. Um in lie of the monthly ESP 730 00:44:22,240 --> 00:44:24,400 and teacher of the month recognitions, I 731 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,480 just thought it would be nice to put on 732 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,720 here some of our um high achieving 733 00:44:28,720 --> 00:44:30,880 teachers as far as student academic 734 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,200 achievement on the state assessments. 735 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,400 So, the first one um has every teacher 736 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,240 in the district from kindergarten 737 00:44:38,240 --> 00:44:40,640 through third grade that had more than 738 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,200 90% of their students scoring proficient 739 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,200 on the Acadians benchmark at the end of 740 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:48,000 the year. The ones with an asterisk are 741 00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,640 the one are the teachers that had 100%. 742 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,319 So, we had quite a few teachers with 743 00:44:52,319 --> 00:44:54,480 100% of their students on grade level. 744 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,119 The second sheet is those teachers that 745 00:44:57,119 --> 00:45:00,960 had 90% of their students reached high 746 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:02,960 pathways of progress. So that means they 747 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,280 made typical above typical or well above 748 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,359 typical progress for what was expected 749 00:45:07,359 --> 00:45:09,280 for the student. Again the asterisk 750 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:13,119 means that they were at 100% um of 751 00:45:13,119 --> 00:45:14,640 typical or above for pathways of 752 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,280 progress. Again that's K3. The very last 753 00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:19,440 one. Oh, and on those two, the state is 754 00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:21,200 somewhere around 70% for their 755 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,839 proficiency. So that's a good 20 to 30% 756 00:45:23,839 --> 00:45:26,880 above what the state average is. Um then 757 00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,200 the last sheet is all teachers from 758 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,359 third grade through 8th grade that had 759 00:45:31,359 --> 00:45:33,520 more than 70% of their students 760 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,800 proficient on rise ELA math and science 761 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:38,560 and there's an asterk if it was above 762 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,079 80%. And so those are really again state 763 00:45:42,079 --> 00:45:45,839 average is about 45% on rise um 42 in 764 00:45:45,839 --> 00:45:49,200 some subtests. So really good results 765 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:51,119 and a good opportunity if you see some 766 00:45:51,119 --> 00:45:52,640 of those teachers to just commend to 767 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:54,400 them and let them know what a great job 768 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:55,680 they're doing and just get their names 769 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:56,800 out there. We're probably going to try 770 00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,119 to have this put on our social media too 771 00:45:59,119 --> 00:45:59,680 just so 772 00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:00,800 >> absolutely 773 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:02,880 >> Heidi Joe will you do me a favor and I 774 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:04,720 don't know I'm I'm looking trying to see 775 00:46:04,720 --> 00:46:06,960 down the line and Julie's got it on hers 776 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:07,760 but mine wouldn't 777 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,240 >> I had to refresh and then it pulled up. 778 00:46:10,240 --> 00:46:11,839 >> Okay my browser. 779 00:46:11,839 --> 00:46:13,599 >> The reason why is because I I deleted it 780 00:46:13,599 --> 00:46:15,200 and updated it. We had the wrong name 781 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:17,119 for one individual and I was texting. 782 00:46:17,119 --> 00:46:18,160 >> There we go.

They 785 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:23,760 can't be on there." And so it was first 786 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:24,720 name, 787 00:46:24,720 --> 00:46:26,319 >> wrong first name, right, last name.
