1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
All right, good evening at 640 and we will now reconvene for public session.

2
00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:11,680
I want to welcome everybody to our board meeting tonight. We always enjoy when we see fresh, different faces.

3
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:17,000
And thank you for taking time to be with us tonight. Board meetings are public.

4
00:00:18,060 --> 00:00:23,060
What the business we need to do in public, if that makes sense. So thank you, we value your public participation.

5
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:30,180
Our new student board representative from Clovis North, Nick Ruboken, will now lead us in the

6
00:00:30,180 --> 00:00:30,880
pledge of allegiance.

7
00:00:33,580 --> 00:00:35,260
Please stand and join us in the pledge of allegiance,

8
00:00:37,430 --> 00:00:37,570
ready?

9
00:00:38,130 --> 00:00:38,450
Salute.

10
00:00:39,110 --> 00:00:45,690
I pledge allegiance to the high of the United States of America and to the Republic for which

11
00:00:45,690 --> 00:00:46,450
it stands.

12
00:00:47,570 --> 00:00:51,610
Onionation, underbought, anything is available for liberty and justice for all.

13
00:00:55,060 --> 00:00:56,240
Thank you.

14
00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:00,040
We have a few closed session motions that we have to take care of.

15
00:01:00,420 --> 00:01:03,060
During closed session the board reviewed routine personnel matters.

16
00:01:03,260 --> 00:01:06,500
I'll entertain a motion to approve those personal matters as submitted.

17
00:01:07,900 --> 00:01:08,480
Any discussion?

18
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:10,060
All in favour?

19
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:10,940
Aye.

20
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:11,840
Any opposed?

21
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:18,660
Also during closed session the board reviewed student discipline matters related to student 2701.

22
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,900
I'll entertain a motion to approve those student discipline matters as submitted.

23
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:23,500
So move.

24
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:25,420
All in favour?

25
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:26,040
Aye.

26
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:27,860
I, any opposed, right?

27
00:01:27,980 --> 00:01:31,960
With that out of the way, Dr. Fulmer will you please give us your superintendents report

28
00:01:31,960 --> 00:01:34,220
in my privilege, President Stoker Madsen.

29
00:01:34,780 --> 00:01:38,960
So, just some updates on activities have been happening since the last time we met.

30
00:01:39,180 --> 00:01:43,000
Last Saturday we held the elementary football carnival at La Monica and Veterans Memorial

31
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:43,580
Stadium.

32
00:01:43,980 --> 00:01:45,060
There were big crowds.

33
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:46,060
It was a great event.

34
00:01:46,140 --> 00:01:47,000
It was well organized.

35
00:01:47,100 --> 00:01:48,600
It was beautiful weather.

36
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:55,740
I think my favorite story from that day was a team was walking up the ramp at VMS, very

37
00:01:55,740 --> 00:02:03,500
crowd, tell them great job, and, you know, how's it going? And when, or I said great job

38
00:02:03,500 --> 00:02:09,260
and the kid goes, and I go, awesome. And he goes, and then he goes, I think we won, right?

39
00:02:10,140 --> 00:02:15,460
And it just warmed my heart about like the experience that our incredible team provides

40
00:02:15,460 --> 00:02:20,280
for our kids. And the fact that they get to play in varsity level stadiums that I would argue

41
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:25,260
rival any varsity venue around the state. But they get to have those moments in the excitement

42
00:02:25,260 --> 00:02:31,460
that they have around that. And it was new. We had our cheerleaders on the instead of in the

43
00:02:31,460 --> 00:02:37,240
stands on the ground around that. So everybody was on display for everyone in the stands and it

44
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:44,500
was just a great day. This coming Saturday we're going to have 29 new LVNs that will be pinned

45
00:02:44,500 --> 00:02:49,280
as they graduate from our Clovis adult school program. And we're really proud of them. It's always

46
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,880
such a heartwarming ceremony as they talk about the journey they've been on over the 18 months

47
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,940
and how hard it is for many of them with families

48
00:02:55,940 --> 00:02:58,140
and giving up work to be a part of that.

49
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,180
Last Thursday, we held our district start

50
00:03:00,180 --> 00:03:02,780
where safety and the state seal of civic engagement

51
00:03:02,780 --> 00:03:04,460
we're discussed with our parents.

52
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,680
These topics will then hopefully be carried forward

53
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,300
to our area meetings and we'll move forward

54
00:03:09,300 --> 00:03:11,400
to sites during their site meetings.

55
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,460
We had a great turnout and I'm always grateful

56
00:03:13,460 --> 00:03:17,560
for our parents and our community who show up to partner with us

57
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,100
and learn more about what we do and why we do it.

58
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:21,660
Some school awards.

59
00:03:21,660 --> 00:03:28,640
So, we have four Clovis unified elementary schools that were recognized as bright spots by the

60
00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:31,180
74, which is a national educational new source.

61
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,800
The bright spots, recognition highlight schools, where literacy, specifically at the third-grade

62
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:40,160
level, is exceeding expectations based on the socioeconomic status of the school.

63
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,860
And so, a huge congratulations to Garfield, Jefferson, Liberty, and Mariamonti, elementary

64
00:03:45,860 --> 00:03:46,520
schools.

65
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:52,680
In fact, liberty came out on top with a 92% reading proficiency rate, one of the highest

66
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,440
of all the schools rated in the 74, which is the report.

67
00:03:57,740 --> 00:04:01,240
In California, the PBIS is huge at our school sites.

68
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,460
It's a positive behavioral intervention and support system that really helps our students understand

69
00:04:06,460 --> 00:04:11,640
expectations and help them meet those expectations and reinforce great behaviors in community

70
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,220
on a campus and our school sites do a wonderful job of that.

71
00:04:15,220 --> 00:04:22,740
But we had 21 of our elementary schools just received the highest level of PBIS designation in the state of California

72
00:04:22,740 --> 00:04:25,340
and being named 2026 Platinum Schools.

73
00:04:25,780 --> 00:04:29,600
Also earning the Platinum distinction was our preschool program, which spans 45 sites,

74
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,960
so that's pretty tough when you consider it's not even just in one location in terms of consistency.

75
00:04:34,740 --> 00:04:39,140
Additionally, we had one elementary school receive the 2026 bronze recognized school designation,

76
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,600
so huge congratulations to all of our school sites in preschool.

77
00:04:44,220 --> 00:04:50,680
This Friday, as you know, is Patriot Day, 9-11, and all of our sites will be commemorating

78
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,840
the 25th anniversary of the tragic events that occurred on 9-11.

79
00:04:55,340 --> 00:04:59,040
Through assemblies, morning announcements, displaying the flags wearing red, white and blue,

80
00:04:59,060 --> 00:05:03,500
holding military nights during games that are played that evening, etc.

81
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:08,460
The district office will also hold the 9-11 remembrance that morning under the flagpole outside

82
00:05:08,460 --> 00:05:13,220
the D.O.S. building for those of you who might want to attend, I will be representing

83
00:05:13,220 --> 00:05:19,740
Klovis Unified at the California 911 Memorial Remembrance ceremony that is hearing Klovis

84
00:05:19,740 --> 00:05:25,800
over behind the old Costco. And we have eight secondary students who were named in addition

85
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:32,680
in the 911 vein. There is always the category, the competition that Fresno County Superintendent

86
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:37,820
Schools puts on. One voice, the spirit of 912. Because everybody talks about we had the strategy

87
00:05:37,820 --> 00:05:44,800
on 9-11 but the spirit of the American people on 9-12 is something that gets memorialized

88
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:50,760
as well. And we have eight secondary students who were named in the top 10 of their categories

89
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:57,560
this year. And this year's winners include one student from Granite Ridge and Raven,

90
00:05:58,220 --> 00:06:02,720
one student each from Buchanan and Klovis North and four from Klovis East High School.

91
00:06:03,620 --> 00:06:06,920
And so students will be honored as special ceremony this Saturday morning at the Klovis

92
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,200
Veterans Memorial District.

93
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,860
And then on that vein, I just think it's important.

94
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:16,020
You've been in attendance, but we really are working and have

95
00:06:16,020 --> 00:06:18,680
an entire team that came together to plan celebrating

96
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:23,080
America's 250th and how to carry that forward in ways

97
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:30,040
that honor values that we have around belonging and

98
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,500
acts of service in those things.

99
00:06:31,500 --> 00:06:35,200
And I'm just really proud of our teams that are finding

100
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,500
creative ways to give back and honor that for our students.

101
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,540
And I'll remind you, we'll share as it gets closer,

102
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,040
but we're going to have a culminating event,

103
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,140
follow March 11th, and you're probably wondering,

104
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:46,520
why March 11th?

105
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:51,260
Well, that is the 250th day of this school year.

106
00:06:52,500 --> 00:06:55,080
And that will be when we're going to do a kind of a celebration

107
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:56,180
across the district.

108
00:06:56,620 --> 00:06:59,380
So just to honor that, thank you so much.

109
00:07:01,380 --> 00:07:02,460
Thank you, Dr. Fulmer.

110
00:07:02,460 --> 00:07:11,060
Now it is time to meet our new student board reps for this year for the 2020-26-27 school year.

111
00:07:11,220 --> 00:07:16,160
Welcome, we're glad to have you and so Dr. Fulner, will you please get us started with introductions?

112
00:07:16,820 --> 00:07:29,300
Yeah, so at this time, we have a phenomenal group of individuals that will be serving as our board representatives and I'll just remind you we do this so we can have a lot of students who get to engage with you as a board member and get to see the process.

113
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:58,940
All right, good evening, President Stoke Romance and members of the governing board, Dr. Fulmer, Mr. Jager, and Mrs. Rageer.

114
00:07:58,940 --> 00:08:03,920
One of our district strengths is the opportunity we give students to lead, serve, and make

115
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,080
meaningful contributions to their school communities.

116
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,380
Tonight we have the privilege, appearing directly from five outstanding student leaders,

117
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,960
representing each of our comprehensive high schools.

118
00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:17,440
Before welcoming our student board representatives, I'd like to recognize the dedicated

119
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,440
activities directors who support and mentor student leaders across our campuses.

120
00:08:22,580 --> 00:08:28,580
Sally Kirchner from Clovis High School, Kelsey Ostrander, Clovis West, Brianna Williams,

121
00:08:28,860 --> 00:08:35,560
new to Buchanan, Sarah Buress, from Clovis East, Miranda Rudolf, from Clovis North, and finally

122
00:08:35,560 --> 00:08:40,960
and excited to introduce for the first time the activities director from Clovis South, Sophia Burada.

123
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:46,360
Tonight is an exciting night for their school dormitory. Can they stand up, please?

124
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:54,640
You know what? Well, there'll be a moment. So, like, these ladies were waiting for a cue. So, it is my pleasure to introduce

125
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,560
Please, I mean, they deserve it.

126
00:09:02,330 --> 00:09:06,750
That's my phone. They're used to graduation cues, and so they didn't hear the cue, so they didn't stand.

127
00:09:08,810 --> 00:09:16,930
Thank you ladies for what you do. Yes, for sure. But we're really excited because tonight is close the south's first night having a board report and

128
00:09:16,930 --> 00:09:18,710
And so they're here tonight, the principal,

129
00:09:19,070 --> 00:09:21,690
and Dr. Terrosions here, to celebrate.

130
00:09:23,170 --> 00:09:24,050
So we just want to say,

131
00:09:24,150 --> 00:09:25,430
we're extremely grateful for the guidance

132
00:09:25,430 --> 00:09:28,010
commitment of our activities directors,

133
00:09:28,190 --> 00:09:29,550
because I really do help create

134
00:09:29,550 --> 00:09:31,170
opportunities that shape competent,

135
00:09:31,210 --> 00:09:32,250
capable young leaders.

136
00:09:33,130 --> 00:09:34,810
So now it's my pleasure to introduce

137
00:09:34,810 --> 00:09:36,170
our student board representatives.

138
00:09:36,590 --> 00:09:38,210
Each will share a little bit about themselves.

139
00:09:38,630 --> 00:09:41,050
So starting one by that from Clovis High,

140
00:09:41,210 --> 00:09:44,690
Olivia Swanson, from Clovis West, Emma Drain.

141
00:09:44,690 --> 00:09:52,310
If you can, no one else, Clovis East, Landering Romero, and from Clovis North, Nicholas Rogolkin.

142
00:09:58,780 --> 00:10:04,560
Hi, my name is Olivia Swanson, and I'm very honored to be the board representative for Clovis High this year.

143
00:10:05,180 --> 00:10:13,040
I'm a senior and this is my second year in ISC. I've held many leadership roles during high school, and I'm currently serving as Clovis High Senior Class President.

144
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,100
I'm the secretary for both the Veterans Support Club and Hands for Hope Club.

145
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,680
I'm a member of CSF and I play volleyball from freshman to junior year.

146
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:26,160
I maintain a 4.0 weighted GPA through a high school and I've taken 5 AP courses.

147
00:10:27,420 --> 00:10:30,940
Outside of school, my family, friends and my job are very important to me.

148
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,860
I enjoy our family dinners every Sunday night and working at Tilly's in my free time.

149
00:10:35,740 --> 00:10:40,660
Through all of the experiences and self-growth I've gone through in high school, I'm competent in the young woman I've become.

150
00:10:41,680 --> 00:10:45,680
My family members have always been my number one supporters and they've pushed me to do great things.

151
00:10:46,420 --> 00:10:54,420
After high school, I plan to go to college and meet major in business with the minor in fashion merchandising in order to become a stylist or a buyer in the fashion industry.

152
00:10:55,340 --> 00:10:58,800
I'm very excited for this opportunity to share my voice and represent club size school.

153
00:10:59,180 --> 00:10:59,680
Thank you.

154
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:13,320
Hey, my name is Emma Drain, and I'm honored to be serving as the Clovis West Student Board Representative.

155
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:24,600
Throughout my time at Clovis West, I have taken a total of eight AP courses, along with two medically inclined CTE classes at both Buchanan and Clovis North.

156
00:11:25,260 --> 00:11:30,320
I competed on the walk trial team for three years, earning first in county twice.

157
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:37,420
I have been a part of various clubs, including theater West, CSF, FCA, and more.

158
00:11:37,900 --> 00:11:42,020
Last year was my very first year in leadership where I hit the ground running and ran

159
00:11:42,020 --> 00:11:45,400
for junior rally commissioner as well as the Inter-School Council.

160
00:11:46,180 --> 00:11:52,720
Now I'm in my second year of leadership, ISC, and have the privilege of being ASB Vice President.

161
00:11:53,260 --> 00:11:58,040
I also spend a lot of my time working as a part-time sales associate at Attilies.

162
00:11:59,740 --> 00:12:05,740
In the future, I plan to attend a four-year university, and afterwards pursue a career in

163
00:12:05,740 --> 00:12:11,080
anesthesiology. It feels like just a few weeks ago I was attending freshman orientation,

164
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:17,980
and now, in a few months, I will be receiving my diploma. I'm extremely grateful to stand

165
00:12:17,980 --> 00:12:23,360
in front of you all today. Knowing that wherever life takes me, I will forever be strong,

166
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,160
and mind, body, and spirit.

167
00:12:26,980 --> 00:12:27,480
Thank you.

168
00:12:34,030 --> 00:12:35,310
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

169
00:12:35,590 --> 00:12:38,170
I hope all of you are having a fantastic evening.

170
00:12:38,630 --> 00:12:41,090
My name is Noel Alto, and I'm proud to be a senior

171
00:12:41,090 --> 00:12:42,110
at Buchanan High School.

172
00:12:42,910 --> 00:12:44,690
Buchanan has truly become part of my family.

173
00:12:45,150 --> 00:12:48,930
I have two brothers, one who graduated from Buchanan in 2025,

174
00:12:49,390 --> 00:12:50,730
and another who's currently a sophomore.

175
00:12:51,710 --> 00:12:53,930
At the heart of who I am is my faith in the Lord.

176
00:12:54,470 --> 00:12:57,750
I value spending time at church, being with friends and family,

177
00:12:57,750 --> 00:13:03,450
and enjoying the outdoors. Looking ahead, I plan to attend a four-year university where I hope to

178
00:13:03,450 --> 00:13:09,450
earn a degree in either public health or chemistry and continue my education at UCSF to pursue

179
00:13:09,450 --> 00:13:15,530
and my MD and career in medicine. Throughout my four years at Buchanan, I have an intentionally

180
00:13:15,530 --> 00:13:21,550
been deeply involved in our school community and those experiences help shape the person who I am today.

181
00:13:21,550 --> 00:13:30,270
I have served on student council all four years at Buchanan and taking the rules of ASB athletics and currently ASB President.

182
00:13:31,210 --> 00:13:39,770
I have also been a proud member of the Buchanan varsity volleyball team for the past two years, one of the highlights being a part of the Valley Championship team.

183
00:13:40,250 --> 00:13:47,030
Of all these experiences, my greatest joy has been serving on inner-school council for the past two years with some of my closest friends.

184
00:13:47,830 --> 00:13:51,830
Through these opportunities, I have learned the importance of leadership, service,

185
00:13:52,490 --> 00:13:55,550
friendship, and representing something larger than myself.

186
00:13:56,910 --> 00:14:00,510
I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be before you this evening,

187
00:14:00,790 --> 00:14:04,170
and represent the school I have been fortunate to call home for the past three years.

188
00:14:04,850 --> 00:14:11,550
Buchanan has given me friendships, memories, and opportunities that I will carry along with me after graduation.

189
00:14:12,410 --> 00:14:14,510
Buchanan is my home, and forever will be.

190
00:14:15,150 --> 00:14:20,490
I'm deeply proud to be a bear, and I sincerely thank you for the privilege of being here with you this evening.

191
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:35,100
Hello. My name is Landry Romero, and I'm so excited to be close east, or to represent close east as this year's student board representative.

192
00:14:36,300 --> 00:14:42,280
I've been a close unified student since kindergarten, which is given the planning of practice and perfecting that mind-body spirit mentality.

193
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:50,380
First starters, there's not much more I love than learning new things and challenging myself, which I do through many of the AP and honors courses offered at the wreck.

194
00:14:50,380 --> 00:14:55,600
I am also thrilled to share that after many years of dancing with close academy, I have finally joined

195
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,900
Close East Anthem where I have the opportunity to strengthen and move my body in ways I enjoy.

196
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:05,400
Throughout the school day. My favorite aspect of school, however, has to be the time I spend with my leadership

197
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:12,020
team. I have the honor of serving closies as ASP president as I enter my fifth year of leadership. It

198
00:15:12,020 --> 00:15:17,100
is through my love for this program that I discovered ISE, my second family, and I'm standing

199
00:15:17,100 --> 00:15:21,880
before you today. I'm also a proud member of our school's diversity education council,

200
00:15:22,020 --> 00:15:26,660
formerly known as Rectek, which allows me to learn new ways to advocate for all voices on campus,

201
00:15:26,660 --> 00:15:29,500
National Honors Society and T-Wolf Team.

202
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,240
I also look forward to our quarterly eye-dark meetings with the wonderful Dr. Fomer.

203
00:15:34,180 --> 00:15:38,260
Outside of school, I spend a lot of time reading, and I'm quite involved with the online book community,

204
00:15:38,540 --> 00:15:40,880
where I offer marketing services for independent authors.

205
00:15:41,660 --> 00:15:47,540
I also enjoy spending time with friends and family, and my three ran bunches, goofy, yet extremely loving dogs.

206
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,800
I look forward to getting to know all of you this year, and I am honored to be representing my Wolf Pack family.

207
00:16:01,750 --> 00:16:06,830
My name is Nicholas Rogokin or Nick Rogokin and I am honored to serve as this year's Clovis

208
00:16:06,830 --> 00:16:08,030
North board representative.

209
00:16:08,770 --> 00:16:12,650
I am currently a senior at Clovis North High School and I am taking a rigorous course

210
00:16:12,650 --> 00:16:19,530
load that includes AP statistics, AP macroeconomics, AP government, English 125 dual enrollment,

211
00:16:20,070 --> 00:16:21,970
anatomy and physiology and leadership.

212
00:16:22,710 --> 00:16:27,310
By the end of my senior year, I will have completed 7 AP courses and multiple honors courses

213
00:16:27,310 --> 00:16:32,410
while being recognized by the California Scholarship Federation and the College Board as an AP scholar

214
00:16:32,410 --> 00:16:37,630
with honor. Outside of academics, some of my most meaningful experiences have come through the

215
00:16:37,630 --> 00:16:42,410
Clovis North Leadership Program, where I'd been able to grow not only as a leader, but also as a

216
00:16:42,410 --> 00:16:47,910
person, ultimately leading me to become a member of ISC. One of my favorite hobbies, photography,

217
00:16:48,290 --> 00:16:52,690
has led me to serve as President of the Photography Club, while my want to represent the student

218
00:16:52,690 --> 00:16:55,210
inspired me to become ASB Vice President.

219
00:16:56,050 --> 00:16:59,770
Beyond school, I stay connected to my community through volunteering with teens that care,

220
00:17:00,190 --> 00:17:04,230
or one of my favorite opportunities has been volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House,

221
00:17:04,350 --> 00:17:07,490
at Valley Children's Hospital, and supporting families in our community.

222
00:17:08,270 --> 00:17:10,010
A few quick, fun facts about me.

223
00:17:10,270 --> 00:17:13,530
My favorite movie has always been Ratatouille, and when I'm not at school,

224
00:17:13,670 --> 00:17:16,190
you can usually find me on the picklewalk fort with my friends,

225
00:17:16,470 --> 00:17:20,370
or as of late, on the driving range, trying to keep up with my brother's golf game.

226
00:17:20,370 --> 00:17:24,710
I've been a part of Clovis Unified since kindergarten starting at Liberty Elementary.

227
00:17:25,130 --> 00:17:30,510
Go SkyHallcks, and I am incredibly grateful and excited to represent Clovis North as an ISC member

228
00:17:30,510 --> 00:17:33,090
and serve as board representative this year.

229
00:17:33,450 --> 00:17:33,890
Thank you.

230
00:17:38,360 --> 00:17:39,700
Okay it is my pleasure.

231
00:17:41,420 --> 00:17:42,140
It's my pleasure.

232
00:17:45,020 --> 00:17:49,300
And our student board representatives up to the highest to shake our board members hands.

233
00:17:49,340 --> 00:17:49,640
We'd love

234
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:55,660

235
00:19:01,780 --> 00:19:04,200
Well, thank you all for that lovely introduction.

236

00:19:15,620 --> 00:19:19,620

breadth of experience so we're happy to have you and have your input on things.

00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:45,020
So now we would like to move forward and have Mr. Robilkin give us your first report.

00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:42,200
The excitement continues this week with Club Rush on Thursday, where more than 100 clubs will

315
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:47,560
showcase opportunities for students to get involved. Friday brings salute to service night and

316
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:57,060
Bronco Mania, as we welcome our elementary feeder schools to join the Stampede and cheer on the

317
00:26:01,570 --> 00:26:05,210
of a South High School where we live the long-horn way at the ranch.

318
00:26:05,950 --> 00:26:10,450
The ranch launched a new tradition this school year, freshman sunrise, brought nearly

319
00:26:10,450 --> 00:26:14,750
109th grade students together to celebrate the beginning of their high school journey while

320
00:26:14,750 --> 00:26:15,670
watching the sunrise.

321
00:26:16,230 --> 00:26:20,830
The first week concluded with a no-back pack day and a running rally, centered on our story,

322
00:26:21,070 --> 00:26:25,630
our strength to build strong relationships and communication between students and staff.

323
00:26:26,670 --> 00:26:30,730
Recently, peer counselors strength in partnerships with community mental health organizations

324
00:26:30,730 --> 00:26:35,710
to provide lunchtime campus awareness activities to support mental wellness.

325
00:26:36,470 --> 00:26:40,630
Connections continue to be made when Clovis South recently hosted its first unified

326
00:26:40,630 --> 00:26:44,430
soccer match, welcoming sister schools to campus for an inclusive event.

327
00:26:45,050 --> 00:26:49,590
And the Thundering herd experienced another memorable moment when the Girls Volleyball program

328
00:26:49,590 --> 00:26:52,690
earned its first varsity victory in school history.

329
00:26:53,290 --> 00:26:56,820
Congratulations to Coach Dan Hartog and the student athletes on the

330
00:26:56,820 --> 00:26:58,680
T-back milestone.

331
00:27:00,620 --> 00:27:03,780
This concludes the student board report for September 9th.

332
00:27:03,900 --> 00:27:04,400
Thank you.

333
00:27:13,470 --> 00:27:16,630
Thank you so much, Nick. Does anybody have any questions for Nick?

334
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:19,440
I have a question.

335
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,140
I was out of town for Coach's Carnival, which was very sad

336
00:27:23,140 --> 00:27:24,920
of helping my daughter move into college.

337
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,000
What did I miss? Tell us about it.

338
00:27:28,220 --> 00:27:30,820
Yeah, so Coach's Carnival was a great new tradition.

339
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:35,080
That we're starting at Clovis North, and we really wanted to have an event

340
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:36,900
that would bring the whole school together

341
00:27:36,900 --> 00:27:38,400
to celebrate our Bronco Pride.

342
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,360
So we had a bunch of bounce houses

343
00:27:41,360 --> 00:27:43,520
and Booth set up with carnival games

344
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,580
and we called it Coach's Carnival

345
00:27:45,580 --> 00:27:47,200
because our mascot, the Bronco,

346
00:27:47,460 --> 00:27:48,960
is named after Coach's Tim Simons

347
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:52,680
and we wanted to honor him by naming him after him.

348
00:27:53,180 --> 00:27:56,240
And really it was a great way to bring the whole school together

349
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,260
from Granite Ridge to Clovis North

350
00:27:58,260 --> 00:28:00,820
as well as many of our elementary school students

351
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,520
so they could see what it's like to be a Bronco.

352
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:08,300
and it brought a lot of families out and it was a great night and it was great

353
00:28:08,300 --> 00:28:12,880
leading into our first home football game just a lot of fun. So it was the first

354
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:17,220
time. Maybe I don't know if it's the very first time that Clovis North has had a

355
00:28:17,220 --> 00:28:22,880
football game at its own stadium so the smallest, smaller stadiums, right? Yes.

356
00:28:23,180 --> 00:28:25,800
At least in a long time or something like that.

357
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:30,000
Or could you have any family here that you'd like to recognize or shout out to?

358
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:37,200
I do my mom, Carrie is here, and my brother Alex, who is a freshman, or sophomore, I close

359
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:37,500
to her.

360
00:28:39,140 --> 00:28:41,120
Welcome, we're happy to have you.

361
00:28:41,500 --> 00:28:42,300
Thank you so much, Nick.

362
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:43,920
We look forward to hearing from you next time.

363
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,620
Thank you.

364
00:28:46,180 --> 00:28:49,380
All right, moving on and is now time for public presentations.

365
00:28:49,580 --> 00:28:56,520
Do we want to excuse our student board reps if you'd like to leave, now would be a great

366
00:28:56,520 --> 00:29:05,120
time, just because we know all those AP classes take some studying or

367
00:29:08,410 --> 00:29:09,430
you can stay and hang

368
00:29:09,430 --> 00:29:09,910
out.

369
00:29:10,070 --> 00:29:11,330
We love to have you.

370
00:29:18,380 --> 00:29:20,980
All right, moving on, it's now time for public presentations.

371
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:26,420
This time is reserved for individuals who would like to address the board on and a topic

372
00:29:26,420 --> 00:29:31,480
that's not on the agenda and please note because these items are not on the agenda that

373
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:38,780
board can't engage or respond, but we want you to know that we do hear you and we appreciate

374
00:29:38,780 --> 00:29:45,480
you taking the time to be here tonight. So we'll, with that, we'll have our one speaker,

375
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:51,280
Laura Morton, please come up and you're limited to two minutes and at two minutes, there's

376
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:58,000
a timer behind me. It'll give you a ding. And I'm sorry, but I probably will cut you off as well

377
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,720
if it's that two minutes.

378
00:30:03,790 --> 00:30:12,610
Good evening, my name is Laura Morton, and I'm speaking on behalf of the elementary office managers in sport of transparency and accountability to both employees and taxpayers.

379
00:30:13,250 --> 00:30:23,430
Clothes Unified spent approximately $180,000 on a reclassification study. That is a substantial use of public funds and employees and taxpayers have a right to know what work was performed.

380
00:30:23,430 --> 00:30:33,430
What conclusions were reached, and how those conclusions may affect district positions, are attorneys submitted a request under the California Public Records Act, seeking that information.

381
00:30:33,850 --> 00:30:36,070
The district responded that no report exists.

382
00:30:36,690 --> 00:30:38,190
That raises an important question.

383
00:30:38,390 --> 00:30:47,830
How can a district spend $180,000 on a reclassification study without any report, findings, recommendations, or final work product available for public review?

384
00:30:47,830 --> 00:30:52,890
If a study was conducted, there should be records showing the mythology, analysis, and conclusions.

385
00:30:53,270 --> 00:30:57,670
If no report exists, then the public deserves a clear explanation of what was delivered

386
00:30:57,670 --> 00:31:01,110
and exchanged for $180,000 of taxpayer money.

387
00:31:01,730 --> 00:31:05,670
The Public Records Act exists to ensure transparency and public trust.

388
00:31:06,110 --> 00:31:10,950
When records related to a project of this magnitude cannot be produced, it raises legitimate concerns

389
00:31:10,950 --> 00:31:13,750
about accountability and confidence in the process.

390
00:31:14,370 --> 00:31:16,690
Tonight, I asked the board to answer three questions.

391
00:31:16,690 --> 00:31:20,090
First, what specific deliverables were provided by the consultant?

392
00:31:20,830 --> 00:31:26,330
Second, if no report exists, what records document the results of the reclassification study?

393
00:31:26,850 --> 00:31:34,570
And third, how can employees and the public evaluate the fairness and the validity of the study without access to the information that supports its conclusions?

394
00:31:35,530 --> 00:31:41,950
This issue is about responsible stewardship of public funds transparency in the decision-making and maintaining public trust.

395
00:31:41,950 --> 00:31:52,310
I request that the board direct staff to disclose all non-exemple records related to this study and provide a clear explanation of what taxpayers receive for the $180,000 spent.

396
00:31:52,930 --> 00:32:00,470
We have prepared reminders for each board member containing copies of the documents provided to our attorney in response to the Public Records Act.

397
00:32:00,750 --> 00:32:07,470
I ask that you review these materials and consider whether they adequately explain or support the decisions that were made.

398
00:32:08,050 --> 00:32:08,710
Thank you.

399
00:32:11,870 --> 00:32:12,910
Thank you.

400
00:32:13,150 --> 00:32:16,230
We appreciate the binders and you have our commitment that we will look through it.

401
00:32:16,690 --> 00:32:19,750
And I, Dr. Fulmer, want to say I appreciate you coming to speak.

402
00:32:19,910 --> 00:32:22,710
And I know that Mr. Stairs has been meeting with you and has some others.

403
00:32:23,310 --> 00:32:30,210
And so I'll assure you that we'll get let them review it and get you any documents that weren't already provided.

404
00:32:30,310 --> 00:32:36,010
Although I do believe we've provided everything that we have because that's what we're required to do.

405
00:32:36,010 --> 00:32:38,010
But we'll continue to work through the process

406
00:32:38,010 --> 00:32:38,850
and addressing your question.

407
00:32:38,850 --> 00:32:39,590
I appreciate that.

408
00:32:39,750 --> 00:32:40,470
Thank you, everyone.

409
00:32:49,500 --> 00:32:51,380
Moving on is our consent agenda.

410
00:32:52,340 --> 00:32:55,900
I'll entertain a motion to adopt the consent agenda as submitted.

411
00:32:56,460 --> 00:32:56,880
So move.

412
00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,440
Any discussion there?

413
00:33:00,260 --> 00:33:00,980
All in favor?

414
00:33:01,660 --> 00:33:01,960
All right.

415
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:02,820
Any opposed?

416
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:05,020
All right.

417
00:33:05,700 --> 00:33:08,520
Our action agenda is next.

418
00:33:08,940 --> 00:33:09,220
M1.

419
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,020
I'll entertain a motion to approve the provisional

420
00:33:12,020 --> 00:33:16,160
internship permits for the recommended teaching candidates as submitted.

421
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:17,290
So moved.

422
00:33:18,700 --> 00:33:18,820
Second.

423
00:33:19,780 --> 00:33:20,460
Any discussion?

424
00:33:21,660 --> 00:33:22,420
All in favor?

425
00:33:23,340 --> 00:33:23,420
Aye.

426
00:33:23,420 --> 00:33:23,700
Aye.

427
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:24,400
Any opposed?

428
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,460
And two, I'll entertain a motion to discuss nominations.

429
00:33:29,260 --> 00:33:34,940
For CSBA directors at large, Hispanic and Asian Pacific Islanders candidates.

430
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:36,150
So moved.

431
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:37,460
Second.

432
00:33:38,140 --> 00:33:44,180
We don't need where the motion that we're entertaining is if we're nominating somebody.

433
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,060
I would like to nominate somebody.

434
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:48,660
Okay.

435
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:57,940
Well, I would like to nominate Roma for California School Board,

436
00:33:57,980 --> 00:34:00,500
Association Director at Large for Asian Pacific Islander.

437
00:34:02,950 --> 00:34:06,390
I will have to defer my decision until I further research it.

438
00:34:07,390 --> 00:34:09,770
That was an unrehearsed answer, by the way.

439
00:34:11,150 --> 00:34:13,230
Can we table that, or what is it?

440
00:34:13,230 --> 00:34:17,490
There's a time line on it, and do they have to do it all the way to

441
00:34:23,250 --> 00:34:23,250
you?

442
00:34:23,410 --> 00:34:25,190
Because this is for directors at large.

443
00:34:25,690 --> 00:34:26,070
I know.

444
00:34:26,530 --> 00:34:28,630
But what do you want to be a dad?

445
00:34:29,890 --> 00:34:30,390
Well then.

446
00:34:30,830 --> 00:34:30,950
Right.

447
00:34:32,470 --> 00:34:32,490
Right.

448
00:34:32,490 --> 00:34:33,810
I think you have to be a delicate.

449
00:34:41,450 --> 00:34:41,850
You're right.

450
00:34:42,010 --> 00:34:43,310
You're right.

451
00:34:44,710 --> 00:34:46,250
Anyway, there's a time line on it, though.

452
00:34:47,130 --> 00:34:47,570
Okay.

453
00:34:47,570 --> 00:34:57,630
So I'm reading this, so it does look as though woman you may be nominated, and you just have to be, it says,

454
00:34:58,550 --> 00:35:06,930
on the nominee, it's certified the nominee, has consented to the nomination, the nominee must be a board member from a CSBA member district or county office of education.

455
00:35:08,310 --> 00:35:14,430
Director from serving statewide boards, organizations, so I think, yeah, if you would like

456
00:35:14,430 --> 00:35:19,690
to accept, the due date is Friday, October 2nd.

457
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,160
So I think we have to be willing to be for that, right?

458
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:30,460
We could table it until our next Wednesday, October 2nd, September 23rd, until our next meeting

459
00:35:30,460 --> 00:35:35,420
and give will an opportunity to research what we get to information.

460
00:35:35,420 --> 00:35:39,580
I think it was sent, but we'll, we can get you more information on that.

461
00:35:40,720 --> 00:35:40,980
Okay.

462
00:35:41,180 --> 00:35:41,960
Thank you.

463
00:35:42,100 --> 00:35:42,240
Okay.

464
00:35:42,420 --> 00:35:47,940
We will table M2, the nomination for the CSGA Drifter's at large.

465
00:35:52,100 --> 00:35:56,840
M3, I'll entertain a motion to approve the updated school plan for student achievement,

466
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:03,880
and the category of categorical budget for newly designated Title I schools for the 2627 school year,

467
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:08,500
and authorize each school to implement its categorical programs.

468
00:36:11,140 --> 00:36:12,640
Is there a motion for that?

469
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:14,340
Is there any discussion?

470
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,640
Just kind of questions, you know,

471
00:36:18,820 --> 00:36:22,460
I kind of glance through a lot of the

472
00:36:22,460 --> 00:36:25,580
This says and I always go to, you know,

473
00:36:25,940 --> 00:36:28,940
the ELA in math, you know, test scores and all that.

474
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:33,500
And so some of the schools that are Title I have had significant increases.

475
00:36:33,500 --> 00:36:42,080
There have been some that had some losses, so I just wondering, you know, you know, what's the contributing factor usually to that?

476
00:36:42,700 --> 00:36:48,080
Yeah, so that's something we'll probably review in our student achievement board workshop with you in terms of what each of those are.

477
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:58,500
This is that we've had an increase in allocation in our federal dollars and Title 1, and so we have the opportunity to provide some additional resources to schools that are over 50%

478
00:36:58,500 --> 00:37:07,980
But aren't currently receiving and so this is an opportunity to give them access to dollars that might help an intervention towards academic achievement or what needs any school grants.

479
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:16,540
That's a separate criteria that you'll get and it is that's a separate program from this that's a state program and this is a federal.

480
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:25,960
So what this does is allow us to give some additional dollars that will help them with, I don't know, intervention time, additional support staff.

481
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:29,980
however best meets the needs but those are a little bit

482
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:42,560
Separate the student achievement board workshop. So we can absolutely dive into that in terms of what makes a difference for some of our schools, but this is just how they're going to allocate the dollars and account for it in that transparency to their community.

483
00:37:43,060 --> 00:37:44,480
Okay. Thank you.

484
00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:48,380
I think it's worth mentioning that the...

485
00:37:48,380 --> 00:37:49,540
Gosh, no.

486
00:37:49,540 --> 00:37:51,020
The interschool council that I, no.

487
00:37:51,140 --> 00:37:52,760
No, interschool council. That's what we just had.

488
00:37:53,260 --> 00:37:55,440
What's inside of it?

489
00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:57,360
Thank you. The school's like me.

490
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:05,040
I've been on it before, I could remember the title, different parents in the school community

491
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:11,700
can run, I think, actually, for a position on that and they represent the school community

492
00:38:11,700 --> 00:38:19,580
and they help review the SIPSA and help monitor, not monitor, but see how the school plans

493
00:38:19,580 --> 00:38:24,980
suspend those money, so there is involvement from the school community and parents there.

494
00:38:24,980 --> 00:38:33,380
So, all in favor, I, any opposed, and for I'll entertain a motion to authorize the superintendent or

495
00:38:33,380 --> 00:38:40,920
designate to enter into a pre-construction management service agreement for the modernization project at Maple Creek Elementary School.

496
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,780
Second, any discussion?

497
00:38:45,500 --> 00:38:46,540
What do we modernizing?

498
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:54,600
So, be the MPR in the administrative offices and they haven't been through one, it's been a while since

499
00:38:54,600 --> 00:39:04,800
I'll in favour? I, any opposed? M5. I'll entertain a motion to adopt resolution number 4110 regarding

500
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:10,700
the facility master plan with specified time frame requirements for proposition 2 applications

501
00:39:10,700 --> 00:39:15,740
with school facility programs. Is there any discussion?

502
00:39:17,860 --> 00:39:19,560
I assume the subcommittee

503
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:23,000
have reviewed this link.

504
00:39:23,180 --> 00:39:23,360
Yes.

505
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:25,340
Yeah.

506
00:39:25,660 --> 00:39:25,900
We have.

507
00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:28,020
All in favor?

508
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:28,980
Aye.

509
00:39:28,980 --> 00:39:29,400
Aye.

510
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:30,100
Any opposed?

511
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:31,860
N6.

512
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:38,380
I'll entertain a motion to accept the 2025-26 annual financial report as submitted.

513
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:39,400
It's a vote.

514
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,620
Any discussion there?

515
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:43,980
All in favor?

516
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:44,820
Aye.

517
00:39:44,980 --> 00:39:45,720
Any opposed?

518
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:53,560
M7, I'll entertain a motion to award bid number 387 for office supplies and arts and crafts

519
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:57,860
for warehouse stock per the attached tabulation.

520
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,060
Any discussion?

521
00:40:00,820 --> 00:40:02,840
There was a lot there.

522
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:03,800
All in favor?

523
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:04,680
Aye.

524
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:05,500
Any opposed?

525
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:06,740
All right.

526
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,020
Information items.

527
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,040
If there are any questions regarding any of them reach out.

528
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:16,720
I believe one of them was only for information,

529
00:40:18,300 --> 00:40:21,100
number four, post-bonding issuance regarding the bond cell.

530
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,620
So that's not something I think that we will see next week,

531
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,720
so that might be something to just take note

532
00:40:27,720 --> 00:40:32,840
if you have any questions to speak with Dr. Fomer or any,

533
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:33,780
one on the team.

534
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,300
Moving forward from there, we'll now hear our board subcommittee reports.

535
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:40,080
We'll start with our admin services

536
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,240
and HR boards of committee?

537
00:40:44,020 --> 00:40:52,780
All right, so we had our subcommittee meeting on September 2nd and we reviewed the budget

538
00:40:52,780 --> 00:40:58,340
which we went through and we approved on the agenda today and throws some of the details

539
00:40:58,340 --> 00:41:01,880
of the Spendings and the,

540
00:41:04,340 --> 00:41:07,240
we actually had an increase in the budget,

541
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:10,680
what we expected to

542
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,140
have in the way of the number of, so what am I trying to say there?

543
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:21,240
Okay, the reserve increases, so that was at a higher rate, which again, going back, we also discussed

544
00:41:21,240 --> 00:41:26,440
again the concerns of some of the other schools of our, whether we're growing or not growing

545
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,240
And what that's going to look like in the future, and what we're going to be doing with that.

546
00:41:29,300 --> 00:41:32,420
Because that does depend on what our revenues are going to be.

547
00:41:33,540 --> 00:41:39,300
We also review some of the particular interests of me is some of what we can do with

548
00:41:39,300 --> 00:41:44,240
some of the one-time money, including some of the solar vials, and we're looking at some of the members of that.

549
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:48,540
As we look at some of the details, it's not always as rosy as we think it is.

550
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:52,460
And so we've got to go, we're going to be bringing something to the board to spend this money.

551
00:41:52,460 --> 00:41:57,260
But as we look at the numbers, we may determine that it's not something we want to do financially.

552
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:02,660
It's got to make financial sense to us unless we just want to own it for whatever reason.

553
00:42:03,620 --> 00:42:06,460
But we're going to, we looked at all the solar violence refunds.

554
00:42:07,220 --> 00:42:10,780
And then we also required to have a public hearing for us at one time dollars.

555
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,700
I mean, if you go to a certain amount, they want to, unfortunately,

556
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:17,860
we don't really have a lot of people participate in our public hearings for some reason.

557
00:42:17,860 --> 00:42:35,600
But it's something that's required, we're welcome, we're going to be welcome to public to kind of give input for what that is because it is there money, and then we're going to, we are proposing to spend it on things that don't have necessary current expenses to it, but something to upgrade, you know, and decrease expenses in the future.

558
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:47,880
We went over all the construction project, the Lamodica Maple Creek, Nelson is, I don't know,

559
00:42:47,980 --> 00:42:50,120
Clint, have you been by Nelson recently?

560
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:52,460
Yeah, how many?

561
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,140
And what do you think, what do you think is going on there?

562
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,820
We talked about, but I haven't actually seen that projects.

563
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:06,400
Really, it's a wonder of how much work they've been able to do in such a short period of time.

564
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:10,160
I'm all over that campus and everything, of course,

565
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:14,400
is the same way it was out at Hiruyama whenever the fences are up

566
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:19,320
and the kids are not, they don't, they don't see it.

567
00:43:20,300 --> 00:43:23,180
And so it's not even really there, but there's a lot of progress

568
00:43:23,180 --> 00:43:26,600
being made and the staff is very excited about everything

569
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:27,780
that's being done.

570
00:43:28,180 --> 00:43:31,640
Just to the attention to detail, I know in Missile Readies class,

571
00:43:32,420 --> 00:43:34,600
there used to be a step up to your classroom

572
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:45,220
and the two kindergarten classes, there were steps up, and rails, and all kinds of child bone-smashing attractions in front of those classrooms.

573
00:43:45,660 --> 00:43:46,280
They're gone.

574
00:43:46,780 --> 00:43:50,440
And that's something I mean, you think, oh, construction, bond money, you think, oh, big new building.

575
00:43:50,980 --> 00:43:53,820
No, no, they have attention to detail as well.

576
00:43:53,880 --> 00:44:02,840
And eliminated all those steps, and the rails and just modernization and updated, and it's safer, and it's more beautiful.

577
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:06,960
and that's the kind of project that they're doing at Nelson.

578
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:11,140
Yeah, because we're spending, you know, we review a little bit of that, we're spending

579
00:44:11,140 --> 00:44:16,320
some significant dollars on that, and we talk about the money part, but I think more

580
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:20,380
important is what you're giving us is what's actually happening and you, that is your community.

581
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:32,820
It was both so it's nice that you're pleased with what we're working on.

582
00:44:32,820 --> 00:44:37,840
for anything like that. They're doing a good job out there. Landscaping is in. They

583
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:44,420
re did the little drop off loop in front of the school when that added parking and

584
00:44:44,420 --> 00:44:48,400
into so far, I mean, to my untrained eye, it looks really good.

585
00:44:48,820 --> 00:44:52,480
Part of our responsibility of the subcommittee as you know Clint is to make sure that

586
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:59,960
the money is spent appropriately. And so from our point of view, it looks like we're

587
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,280
And to make sure we have a school, we can brief out of, so thanks for helping on that.

588
00:45:04,860 --> 00:45:10,120
We also talked about a T-back, and we're moving this year, we've moved more students in,

589
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:16,100
and that completion of that project is continuing on par.

590
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:23,820
We also reviewed some of the Senate bills, a 48 and 404, one of the updates on that,

591
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,800
governs the district technology and systems.

592
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:32,920
We discussed that and some of the, you know, the personal practices, we, we did on our, you'll see it.

593
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:37,220
This is actually a board policy, but we kind of talked whether it should come to a board policy.

594
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:42,520
What, what we say, what can it can't be done, or whether it should be an administrative regulation.

595
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:44,980
Korean, I don't know if you, you talked about that.

596
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:49,740
You probably with your leadership group, did that come back to you and what do you think of that?

597
00:45:49,740 --> 00:45:50,940
Because that was my recommendation.

598
00:45:51,180 --> 00:45:52,000
Bring it as a policy.

599
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:58,580
Yeah, I think policies are really intended to be over our gene guidelines and when we get into the details

600
00:45:58,580 --> 00:46:06,640
That's where an AR gets to serve our district well because technology evolves the platforms will evolve and allows us to adapt faster than I'm gonna come back

601
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:08,000
but the overall

602
00:46:09,660 --> 00:46:20,920
Vision and indication and guidance comes through a policy. So I think an AR helps us be more adaptable in a world where technology and use continues to evolve quickly and those always get done with your

603
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:25,320
You know, with your guidance and in the subcommittees, but it doesn't require the laborious

604
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:30,000
going through and constantly updating when things evolve, we'd be bringing those policies

605
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:30,560
back quite a bit.

606
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:36,620
So I think the suggestion from the staff is an AR under the policy that we have around general

607
00:46:36,620 --> 00:46:37,040
technologies.

608
00:46:37,620 --> 00:46:42,240
My main concern is that you, as board members, are responsible for that document.

609
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:43,480
So you need to review it.

610
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:48,480
And if you don't like what's being done or how the administration is moving forward in that,

611
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:52,080
then you need to speak up, in order to do that, you've got to read it, okay?

612
00:46:52,500 --> 00:46:56,680
And if you don't have a copy of, we have an updated document, you should all be provided

613
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,520
that so you can make sure you can review that.

614
00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:00,680
Is that correct?

615
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:06,820
Has everyone been provided that but finished document that you know of the new ARV?

616
00:47:06,820 --> 00:47:07,080
Yep.

617
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:10,780
When we get to that point, then we should certainly do that.

618
00:47:10,780 --> 00:47:12,600
We can have a discussion point on that, too.

619
00:47:14,420 --> 00:47:19,580
And then we have the other things that were brought to that was a lot of a worry brought to the board.

620
00:47:21,100 --> 00:47:25,880
And the resolutions, the Sierra Outdoor, as you remember, we had to move on that relatively quickly.

621
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:30,440
So we had to kind of merge the order and we spent some money without going through some of the typical processes.

622
00:47:31,240 --> 00:47:34,960
I don't know if we had much of a choice, because unfortunately we were moving ahead enough,

623
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:40,480
There's not going to be any significant delay to the schools that are going there at attending,

624
00:47:42,020 --> 00:47:45,200
which is kind of what we wanted. We did not want to sort of, and it's going to cost

625
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:51,660
us a little extra money to do that to have not disrupted. But for me, that's always hard to spend

626
00:47:52,980 --> 00:47:58,480
that kind of money, but I think for the kids that effects that actually will have that opportunity,

627
00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:00,700
It's probably worth every dime, so

628
00:48:01,620 --> 00:48:03,600
Quit you want to add anything so that

629
00:48:04,740 --> 00:48:08,400
Or neck-foot whatever your name is

630
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:11,220
You you you guys look the same to me

631
00:48:14,220 --> 00:48:16,980
I'm going to be renewing the bathrooms at the Monica

632
00:48:17,500 --> 00:48:23,120
They're also in the nice. They're going to do since the portables are right there that one set of bathrooms is gonna be set up

633
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:29,080
So that there could be multi so people the teachers and students out there the portables can use those during the day also

634
00:48:30,770 --> 00:48:33,030
That's all I have. I think Steve did a good job.

635
00:48:33,210 --> 00:48:35,010
I have a question on the Lamanic heavy model.

636
00:48:35,010 --> 00:48:41,010
Is that starting during football season after I keep looking at Denver?

637
00:48:41,330 --> 00:48:42,890
Because I'm waiting for Denver to stand up.

638
00:48:43,090 --> 00:48:44,230
It's not Denver.

639
00:48:46,210 --> 00:48:47,390
Oh, board members.

640
00:48:50,010 --> 00:48:52,490
Okay, between football season and graduation.

641
00:48:52,910 --> 00:48:56,690
You can come up and embellish anything that I said here.

642
00:48:56,810 --> 00:48:59,870
Make sure that all the board members know what enjoyable time we had together.

643
00:48:59,870 --> 00:49:29,350
you did a great job. Thank you. Yeah, I mean, we're we are quite honestly this was something that was planned a couple summers away and we're pushing it up because we feel like there's a need and so we have to work around graduation and football season. So we're still trying to figure out what we can do this summer and what we can't do this summer will probably have to wait till after football season next year. So still in the process of determining all that is it going to be completely they are not going to be closed down during football.

644
00:49:29,350 --> 00:49:37,090
Let's hope not yeah, we're redoing the restrooms redoing three like taking out the troughs

645
00:49:39,430 --> 00:49:41,390
We'll sell those at

646
00:49:41,390 --> 00:49:48,190
Cougar Foundation. Yeah, you've never seen those have you tips if I think I'm not gonna call me

647
00:49:48,190 --> 00:49:49,710
I'm not gonna call me

648
00:49:49,710 --> 00:49:55,490
Well, we're gonna bring them up today. So we're not tearing down the building. We are we're using the shell that's there

649
00:49:56,090 --> 00:49:58,790
And redoing the everything that's inside of them

650
00:49:58,790 --> 00:50:04,570
We're touching the press box, touching the bleach receipts, and the steps.

651
00:50:05,430 --> 00:50:07,110
So, I'll be a pretty big project.

652
00:50:07,430 --> 00:50:09,690
That again, there's no way we can do over a summer's time.

653
00:50:09,870 --> 00:50:11,290
So we'll have to spread it out over time.

654
00:50:11,730 --> 00:50:13,470
So the shell of the restrooms is staying.

655
00:50:14,090 --> 00:50:15,130
They're staying where they are.

656
00:50:15,870 --> 00:50:19,170
So does that mean mirrors in changing tables from the restrooms?

657
00:50:19,310 --> 00:50:20,130
Oh my gosh.

658
00:50:21,350 --> 00:50:22,270
Changing tables, yes.

659
00:50:22,610 --> 00:50:23,630
We'll talk about mirrors.

660
00:50:23,890 --> 00:50:24,270
I don't know.

661
00:50:24,610 --> 00:50:26,230
Your mirrors have a tendency to break.

662
00:50:26,230 --> 00:50:28,970
So we try to make those indestructible stuff.

663
00:50:28,970 --> 00:50:30,390
But don't we have mirrors of veterans in the back?

664
00:50:30,390 --> 00:50:31,930
We do have mirrors of veterans.

665
00:50:32,350 --> 00:50:34,070
We do in some restaurants and some restaurants

666
00:50:34,070 --> 00:50:34,890
we've taken them out.

667
00:50:35,030 --> 00:50:36,510
We haven't got to that level of detail.

668
00:50:36,670 --> 00:50:37,690
The ladies need mirrors.

669
00:50:37,970 --> 00:50:39,090
Do you want mirrors?

670
00:50:39,310 --> 00:50:39,510
We would.

671
00:50:39,830 --> 00:50:40,770
We'll make mirrors.

672
00:50:42,090 --> 00:50:44,090
Make them just small mirrors.

673
00:50:44,390 --> 00:50:45,050
We're so reflective.

674
00:50:46,050 --> 00:50:46,530
Yeah, they're not.

675
00:50:46,630 --> 00:50:49,110
I don't think they're not great mirrors in veterans,

676
00:50:49,370 --> 00:50:53,110
but they do at least you see a reflection of some for it.

677
00:50:53,610 --> 00:50:55,150
I would have never thought of that.

678
00:50:56,750 --> 00:51:06,370
The other thing, I, you always look great, I do want to comment, I do want to comment that

679
00:51:06,370 --> 00:51:11,490
Lamontic State has been around for how many years, how that's been, how 70s, I don't

680
00:51:11,490 --> 00:51:12,570
know the exact year.

681
00:51:12,810 --> 00:51:17,070
It's like, it didn't open when the school opened up in 69 and I believe it was a couple

682
00:51:17,070 --> 00:51:18,550
years after that, that Lamontic opened.

683
00:51:19,310 --> 00:51:22,850
Yeah, and I just 75, there we go, 74, so many things.

684
00:51:22,850 --> 00:51:27,510
Yeah, so I was just saying, you know, I'm glad we're out there, but that stadium is still a

685
00:51:27,510 --> 00:51:32,870
such a nice stadium for being around for the time being, and how many kids have gone through that

686
00:51:32,870 --> 00:51:39,690
football, the graduations to events, it's had its use, and so, you know, that's one of the biggest

687
00:51:39,690 --> 00:51:45,630
venues we had at Clovis, you know, if I had back in the day, and to continue to support that I think is good,

688
00:51:45,770 --> 00:51:49,730
but I'm just really proud. I think we as a community have taken pretty good care of it for the most part, too.

689
00:51:49,730 --> 00:51:53,510
It's an iconic venue, I think, especially when you see people come from out of town,

690
00:51:53,870 --> 00:51:56,630
they're in awe, especially it may see how old the stadium is.

691
00:51:57,070 --> 00:52:01,110
Okay, so Ronald Weld can be 70, 70 years old and 69 is younger than me.

692
00:52:01,190 --> 00:52:03,650
No, no, it was built in the 70s.

693
00:52:03,930 --> 00:52:07,190
Oh, 70, okay, I thought you were saying that's how old it was.

694
00:52:08,610 --> 00:52:10,070
The district's not that old.

695
00:52:11,910 --> 00:52:13,790
But actually saved me one.

696
00:52:14,290 --> 00:52:15,410
Is there just one?

697
00:52:16,290 --> 00:52:17,550
We should move on.

698
00:52:17,550 --> 00:52:19,810
All right

699
00:52:19,810 --> 00:52:20,910
Hey, don't

700
00:52:20,910 --> 00:52:24,930
Don't thank you Nick. Hey, they are classic. Yeah, I mean, this is how it is

701
00:52:24,930 --> 00:52:29,690
Let's all guys know I'm living in one's older and here than me, but all right. Let's move on to our art

702
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:34,320
Board, subcommittee report. Is there anything else on this? You have questions about the administration?

703
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:43,360
No, one thing I do want to comment is just how grateful I am for our subcommittees and how I feel like they are working.

704
00:52:43,780 --> 00:52:52,880
Thank you. I feel like you three in that subcommittee are really educated and knowledgeable about that part and that piece of our district.

705
00:52:52,880 --> 00:53:00,480
And we look, we have our first, our first instructional leadership and school leadership and

706
00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:01,320
structural services.

707
00:53:02,020 --> 00:53:03,660
Subcommittee meeting next Friday.

708
00:53:04,300 --> 00:53:05,560
Subcommittee or the next Friday?

709
00:53:05,700 --> 00:53:06,460
I think it's the next Friday.

710
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:12,160
Anyway, we feel like our subcommittee works as well, and we get a lot of information.

711
00:53:12,580 --> 00:53:18,140
I'm grateful to your team, Dr. Fulmer, for how effective those subcommittees are working.

712
00:53:18,740 --> 00:53:27,000
If I can add to your comment, I do think you're going back to this, I think it's the only way we can get through some of the stuff.

713
00:53:28,020 --> 00:53:29,520
There's so much stuff we present.

714
00:53:29,660 --> 00:53:32,060
I think the board needs to know this, the board needs to know this.

715
00:53:32,220 --> 00:53:38,900
And there's no way we can really summarize that two hour, whatever hour, two hour meeting and tell you everything.

716
00:53:39,340 --> 00:53:45,880
So you are trusting us as board members to make decisions or bring things forward and representing you and that subcommittee.

717
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:51,220
Because you're not there and to make sure we're making decision that has a trust of board members

718
00:53:51,220 --> 00:53:57,760
That's you have to and then the committee came me that you're going to I can't I don't think I have the time to renew all the things

719
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:01,420
You're gonna talk about either even though this really are responsibility

720
00:54:01,420 --> 00:54:06,340
So we have to trust you that you're going to something you're uncomfortable with this bring it forward

721
00:54:06,340 --> 00:54:10,340
And this all talk about it, you know, whether those regulations or whatever and you know

722
00:54:10,340 --> 00:54:14,000
I kind of voice a couple concerns with that then you know if we need to move forward

723
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:14,960
So let's talk about it.

724
00:54:15,020 --> 00:54:15,880
So thank you for that.

725
00:54:15,980 --> 00:54:18,460
I do appreciate that extra staff time.

726
00:54:18,820 --> 00:54:20,080
That's, you know, that as well.

727
00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:20,800
But I do.

728
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:21,800
And I appreciate all this.

729
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:24,960
I'll make the effort to make it to those meetings because they're, they're extra

730
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:25,620
meeting too.

731
00:54:25,820 --> 00:54:27,040
I get that.

732
00:54:27,420 --> 00:54:28,120
Thank you, Stu.

733
00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:29,820
It's, how we get informed.

734
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:30,680
It's good.

735
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:31,700
All right.

736
00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:32,420
Card.

737
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:33,740
Mr. Ocher.

738
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:34,300
Okay.

739
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:34,600
Card.

740
00:54:34,900 --> 00:54:38,020
We approved our financial budget for the year.

741
00:54:38,140 --> 00:54:38,960
Our final budget.

742
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:41,540
One thing I would say on the budget, which is,

743
00:54:41,540 --> 00:54:48,500
The card has a strong reserve which is important because card is a smaller thing so a cost

744
00:54:48,500 --> 00:54:53,360
something big happens they have to it fixed them they don't have a lot of things that

745
00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:57,440
they can change and move around so if things are if there's not a good reserve and something

746
00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:02,020
comes up you know they they're coming to the districts and going with their handout and we

747
00:55:02,020 --> 00:55:06,540
don't as a board don't want that to happen they don't want that to happen so the budget is

748
00:55:06,540 --> 00:55:11,460
There's a good shape, good reserves, the projections on the reserves is that they're going to be good.

749
00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:15,100
They do spend down because they have a lot of technology requirements there in lab requirements.

750
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:32,160
But there's just this year they did a good job working with staff on their new technology refresh by changing some of their requirements and making them a little less than what they were the teachers themselves on the laptops that they wanted for their classrooms.

751
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:38,740
Just knowing that the cost for technology has gone up so much to keep where they are at was just going to cost them too much money

752
00:55:38,740 --> 00:55:42,740
And so the rather than I mean nobody dedicated this and said this is what we're doing

753
00:55:42,740 --> 00:55:49,040
They got together and they decided to staff we can go with lesser and still do what we want and save money

754
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:53,160
And so that was very another good thing about car very impressive how they do things there

755
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:59,780
The other thing is we talked about last time the enrollment we have a little bit more in depth report that came back

756
00:55:59,780 --> 00:56:01,580
Aaron provided with some numbers.

757
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:06,600
One of the interesting numbers that came back is one of the problems we have was we're talking

758
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:13,260
about the different amounts of the difference between Clovis and Fresno on the thing and it

759
00:56:13,260 --> 00:56:15,020
really comes into play in the afternoon.

760
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:23,380
We give Fresno anified as given a little bit more morning classes.

761
00:56:23,820 --> 00:56:27,700
We do that because that is the more popular to try to get their numbers up so we're a little

762
00:56:27,700 --> 00:56:34,380
It's like a 60-40 in the mornings, or something close to that, but in the afternoon, it drops

763
00:56:34,380 --> 00:56:42,060
down to low 30s, high 60s for us because Fresno's numbers fall off, and it's, but we're

764
00:56:42,060 --> 00:56:42,800
still working on this.

765
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:44,900
This was just kind of, this is what's happening.

766
00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:50,320
Now that they've seen this, they're going to go back with a way of figuring out how they

767
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:50,940
can do it.

768
00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:56,860
A lot of Fresno, their percentage of kids that drop out after they've been accepted is higher

769
00:56:56,860 --> 00:57:04,320
cars. So they get kids that sign up and then when they get to that final point, that a lot more

770
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:11,420
than ours drop off. And then so it's too bad because they have we have there's room at

771
00:57:11,420 --> 00:57:16,520
cart and so the problem with them dropping off late is it's hard to get the kids that maybe

772
00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:20,820
from Clovis would get in there but we can't get in because it's so late kids are already in

773
00:57:20,820 --> 00:57:26,780
their classes are already set up and it's a problem and but they are working hard

774
00:57:26,780 --> 00:57:33,400
on it, or Morgan or New CEO out there is big on numbers as Craig knows and he did a good

775
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:34,260
job with it.

776
00:57:34,260 --> 00:57:37,960
He likes to look at numbers like some play with numbers and they're going to come out with

777
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:39,640
some ideas on how they can work this.

778
00:57:42,740 --> 00:57:45,860
What are the drops attributed to transportation scheduling?

779
00:57:46,460 --> 00:57:49,680
That's one of the things that they're working on is they're trying to talk to the kids

780
00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:50,680
more about it.

781
00:57:50,940 --> 00:57:56,520
They're trying to get the counselors more involved to get these kids more committed once

782
00:57:56,520 --> 00:58:05,560
in, just staying in touch with them, but they don't have, there's not a concrete thing

783
00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:12,060
of, this is what happens, it's just, their friends don't get in, they get into a class

784
00:58:12,060 --> 00:58:15,860
there, they decide they're going to play a sport or something and they only have to, they

785
00:58:15,860 --> 00:58:19,940
don't get the lab they want, and they think about it, they say they'll go to cart and then

786
00:58:19,940 --> 00:58:23,860
maybe they get off and they don't go, because there are some popular labs which is another

787
00:58:23,860 --> 00:58:28,860
Another thing that they're looking at in this thing is, we've talked about CTE lab-based

788
00:58:28,860 --> 00:58:31,560
classes that are more relevant to kids now.

789
00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,660
Maybe some of these ones are not as popular as it used to be.

790
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:37,320
And they may change and bring in a new one.

791
00:58:37,660 --> 00:58:39,760
Biomed and MedTech is huge.

792
00:58:40,380 --> 00:58:42,540
It's like the two most popular along with psychology and stuff.

793
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:46,320
Well, maybe they need to add a third different type of bio in there.

794
00:58:46,820 --> 00:58:48,420
So some of the things they're looking at.

795
00:58:48,420 --> 00:58:54,600
I have a question, did I hear you say that there's maybe more interest or commitment for the morning classes?

796
00:58:55,640 --> 00:59:00,700
So I remember, back on my daughter, the car, you used to get out after our high school.

797
00:59:00,860 --> 00:59:02,080
They're like, they're released timeless later.

798
00:59:02,220 --> 00:59:05,260
Do we think that might be why some students don't want to do afternoon?

799
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,340
Because they get out of school later than they would.

800
00:59:07,420 --> 00:59:13,660
It actually is on both ends, so because if they get morning, if you're at morning session,

801
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:17,520
you've got to get up early, or then your peers,

802
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:21,640
in Fresno, you've got to get it early, so they have some kids that don't want to get up

803
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:26,640
that early to get there. On the late side, they do get out a little bit by the time they get back

804
00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:32,880
to their campuses, it's later than their... Afternoon is very hard, and they talked about that there.

805
00:59:33,060 --> 00:59:40,400
The afternoon session is almost our much different kids in the morning, morning kids are much more active with

806
00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:44,380
So there's stuff, choir, band, athletics.

807
00:59:45,820 --> 00:59:47,680
So that right there's a little tough.

808
00:59:47,700 --> 00:59:51,200
But they have, I mean, it's just a different kid,

809
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:53,960
but there's so many variables in it,

810
00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,140
but they're just trying to figure out what they can do.

811
00:59:56,660 --> 00:59:59,980
I think the goal was to analyze what's-

812
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:10,360
Students, what they're involved in, where are they coming from, for the morning session that seems to be the most desirable, versus students who are attending, willing to attend the afternoon session.

813
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:19,320
So then they will better target their recruitment for what meets the needs of each cohort for AM or PM.

814
01:00:19,540 --> 01:00:25,240
And it's hard with the transportation turnaround to not have it start before in the morning and go after.

815
01:00:25,740 --> 01:00:31,360
But a lot of the teachers, we're given credit that they work with students, so we have

816
01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:36,320
several students in our drama programs, and teachers will accommodate their practice schedules

817
01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:41,080
or work to find ways, just like any other co-curricular in those aspects, but do their best

818
01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:45,760
trying to honor to maximize their enrollment, but I think there's some things that Mr. Otter

819
01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:50,160
you're talking about that they were committing to in terms of recruitment, and maybe because

820
01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:55,640
the fall off is so big, not just increasing the number, originally received in a lottery,

821
01:00:55,700 --> 01:01:00,520
knowing that we traditionally have a matriculation out as it goes.

822
01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:04,180
So they're looking at a few things to help improve that process.

823
01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:08,740
Well, one thing I even noticed is that when my kids are going from club as high, some of

824
01:01:08,740 --> 01:01:11,720
it goes into their even lunchtime because of the transportation.

825
01:01:12,020 --> 01:01:13,880
So their sacrifices, I think, either way.

826
01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:17,020
Thank you.

827
01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:18,380
Here we appreciate that report.

828
01:01:18,380 --> 01:01:23,300
welcome. We'll move on for board member reports.

829
01:01:27,500 --> 01:01:34,440
Just one question, the superintendent's breakfast. I've seen seven a.m. and I've seen 7.30 a.m.

830
01:01:34,500 --> 01:01:36,340
What time are we need to be there?

831
01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:44,880
Okay, starts at 7.30. Okay.

832
01:01:45,560 --> 01:01:52,040
And then just want to strongly encourage our district and our community to attend some type of 9.11 more

833
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:57,480
on Friday, whether it be here at the district office or at, you never forget Lane or wherever it

834
01:01:57,480 --> 01:02:03,740
may be. It's I think it's important that we be those role models and be out there in the community.

835
01:02:04,380 --> 01:02:09,740
And I usually see most of you out there anyway, but just going to advocate for it. And that's it.

836
01:02:14,170 --> 01:02:22,470
So I appreciate reading about wonderful things that happen in our schools, the sports, the

837
01:02:23,290 --> 01:02:27,170
coming together, some of the things that are posted with the schools, it's kind of fun to

838
01:02:27,170 --> 01:02:27,870
see.

839
01:02:27,870 --> 01:02:31,550
Follow different schools and see what they're posting and the excitement that the new school

840
01:02:31,550 --> 01:02:32,670
year just makes that fun.

841
01:02:33,070 --> 01:02:37,470
So that's really good to see that unification and everyone coming together to celebrate.

842
01:02:38,490 --> 01:02:43,490
It saddens me sometimes to read about things that people publish that talks about

843
01:02:43,490 --> 01:02:45,250
clovation if I'm not being unified.

844
01:02:45,950 --> 01:02:51,930
It makes it look like we don't are not coming together on things because it makes me,

845
01:02:51,930 --> 01:02:55,930
disappointed that there is some of that, but I can be family, yeah, there's some

846
01:02:55,930 --> 01:02:59,670
there's disagreements that I'm hoping we can all work out because I feel we are a unified

847
01:02:59,670 --> 01:03:07,530
district. I know as a board, I'm very proud of what you all seven do and bring us together because

848
01:03:07,530 --> 01:03:12,070
there are boards that don't have the same unification and we're reading that and it's just

849
01:03:12,070 --> 01:03:16,730
heartbreaking for that because then the distraction goes away from what we're here for as

850
01:03:16,730 --> 01:03:21,910
we educate kids and have experiences for that and about ourselves and I hope we can avoid that

851
01:03:21,910 --> 01:03:27,330
board members, but I hope our teachers and our staff can also look to see why they are doing

852
01:03:27,330 --> 01:03:31,370
what they're doing and try to unify and come together because that's what we're here for

853
01:03:31,370 --> 01:03:36,430
and so those that can encourage that and help that. I appreciate those that are stirring things

854
01:03:36,430 --> 01:03:41,910
up, you know, knock it off and let's come together on stuff so I appreciate that. So I want to say that.

855
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:55,520
I just want to piggyback on Dr. Fomer's comment about the district start meeting. I cannot emphasize

856
01:03:56,580 --> 01:04:07,360
What a feel-good meeting that was in terms of having the parents be so proud sitting here ready to learn to listen and to share out and

857
01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:09,460
I think your team

858
01:04:09,460 --> 01:04:16,640
Our team did at a phenomenal job to get so much information in one hour and

859
01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:20,060
Dr. Phoma you're very humble and and

860
01:04:20,860 --> 01:04:26,560
And how you accept compliments, but I have to point out where you were at the last

861
01:04:26,580 --> 01:04:34,760
a few words about the safety and because of who you are and your your love for the district,

862
01:04:35,460 --> 01:04:41,420
you speak from the heart. And when the meeting ended, I said, we need to like,

863
01:04:41,640 --> 01:04:46,980
did it get streamed, did it get recorded, because what she talked about, yes, it was about

864
01:04:46,980 --> 01:04:53,060
safety, but Kelly had also did a great job about breaking down of like when something happens,

865
01:04:53,060 --> 01:04:57,260
be it, a call, a long threat.

866
01:04:57,580 --> 01:04:59,340
Everything has to be taken seriously.

867
01:04:59,900 --> 01:05:01,740
And as it explained very well,

868
01:05:01,900 --> 01:05:04,340
what happens in the first 20 minutes.

869
01:05:06,530 --> 01:05:08,630
And Dr. Fomer went up at the variance at,

870
01:05:08,870 --> 01:05:11,110
hey, I know these are your babies,

871
01:05:11,750 --> 01:05:13,170
but you can't come on campus.

872
01:05:13,470 --> 01:05:17,490
We're concerned about all 2,500 kids at the high school.

873
01:05:17,570 --> 01:05:20,390
So we're going to say, listen, stay home.

874
01:05:20,610 --> 01:05:22,870
I thought you did that so well in the explanation.

875
01:05:22,870 --> 01:05:25,550
And I know if people are still going to ask,

876
01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:30,020
but it was very well done, they haven't taken

877
01:05:30,020 --> 01:05:30,860
off the market.

878
01:05:34,150 --> 01:05:38,510
The other thing was, it was only the second year, this is the second year for the State

879
01:05:38,510 --> 01:05:39,770
Seal of Civic Engagement.

880
01:05:42,270 --> 01:05:46,470
And board member, more your daughter had participated in the first year.

881
01:05:47,290 --> 01:05:53,210
They did a recap, and you know, we heard from these five student board members.

882
01:05:54,050 --> 01:06:04,970
We heard from the students who participated in the state-zilla civic engagement, where if you were talking about they were doing things that were bigger than themselves,

883
01:06:05,370 --> 01:06:17,450
they looked at human trafficking, hygiene for the community, food insecurity, and of course we had the presentation last year for gateway veterans.

884
01:06:18,230 --> 01:06:26,250
And the one student who talked about food insecurity, he said, you know, we get a lunch

885
01:06:26,250 --> 01:06:33,810
free every day, but he learned in this community meals are not always provided on a daily

886
01:06:33,810 --> 01:06:35,290
basis for some of these families.

887
01:06:37,250 --> 01:06:40,290
We raise kids to be academically ready.

888
01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:47,460
We also do a really good job of making them kind of humans and ready for the world.

889
01:06:48,060 --> 01:06:52,400
So, Kudos to our school district, to our leadership, to all of you.

890
01:06:57,780 --> 01:06:58,100
Thank you.

891
01:06:58,100 --> 01:06:59,280
Will that was beautiful?

892
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:01,260
I appreciate that.

893
01:07:02,220 --> 01:07:03,480
I'm sad that I missed it.

894
01:07:03,800 --> 01:07:08,220
I'm going to have town helping a daughter get settled in college.

895
01:07:08,500 --> 01:07:12,320
Makes me think about, you know, as far as a kindergarten or you've all been there.

896
01:07:12,980 --> 01:07:16,580
You know, someone else on our board has sent somebody to college really far away.

897
01:07:16,580 --> 01:07:24,020
So, thank you to our team, to our staff, that helps educate and raise our children.

898
01:07:25,540 --> 01:07:29,980
I know, I think I said this at the last board meeting, it really is...

899
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:39,820
The village, and it's amazing. Each school site is a little city, and thank you for what you do every day, and your teams.

900
01:07:40,940 --> 01:07:43,940
And it really is remarkable. Clovis is a special place.

901
01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:57,020
When I was away, I learned a little bit about some other districts and schools, and I'm really grateful that my kids attend Clovis unified, and I'm very proud to be a part of this team.

902
01:07:57,020 --> 01:08:00,920
So with that, we can adjourn the meeting at 7.48.
