[0:00] Okay, it is October the 6th, 2022, and 5th. We have a almost full slate of four members here.
[0:12] No public forum. Senate, agenda, minutes to the meeting for September 8th.
[0:21] Do you have any questions on it?
[0:25] School accounts? All right, on the school accounts. If you will notice, yes, that looks nice over there.
[0:31] So the previous $1,300,000, it's now $7,000, $8,000, we moved $500,000.
[0:39] We get a payment from the state, and so we put the $500,000 that local investment.
[0:45] We also moved money into our tax pool of college honors and most interest.
[0:49] If you look there, that interest in the middle, that $300,000 only garnered us $30 interest.
[0:55] But our other one, it garnered us almost $8,700 in interest.
[1:01] Our bond account, of course, we've made some bond payments.
[1:03] Before we add $41,000 in interest, this last month we had $25,000.
[1:09] We're still getting interest on it.
[1:11] However, it's going to continue to go down as we make bond payments.
[1:14] I think we all understand that.
[1:15] But we still add a monthly interest of $13,300.
[1:19] For $7, which is not too bad, we're sitting pretty healthy right now
[1:23] in all of our channels, we've got enough operating expenses
[1:27] in the last workout, very much.
[1:29] So, we're looking good on those things.
[1:32] I have a question about the monthly amount of it,
[1:39] all right?
[1:39] I do need to tell you all about one little blip right here.
[1:43] If you'll look on the second page,
[1:48] looked at first page over, and you see,
[1:51] and actually
[1:56] we're new, we're open.
[2:16] Go over to where it says Hagen Botham,
[2:27] and then if you go over again, you'll see Hagen
[2:30] very last page of this, you'll see Higginbotham again,
[2:34] for the exact same amount.
[2:36] Oh, yeah, that was an error.
[2:38] The second one is the right amount.
[2:41] The first one was the other one is passed,
[2:44] and it should have been with the check.
[2:45] It's been rectified.
[2:47] We did not pay the same thing twice, okay?
[2:49] So that has been rectified.
[2:51] Just point that out if you had a question on that.
[2:53] Say why did we do Higginbotham same amount twice
[2:55] if you didn't, you just ended up on there.
[2:57] We just haven't gotten it. We're back in from our our checkmate, so that makes sense.
[3:03] Anybody else have any questions on any of the exactly the school accounts individual?
[3:08] Does somebody make a motion?
[3:11] Yeah.
[3:12] Kevin Ryan makes a motion.
[3:13] I'll second.
[3:15] Kevin Coral checks seconds.
[3:19] All those in favor?
[3:20] Any opposed?
[3:21] Motion carries?
[3:22] Everybody in favor?
[3:23] Yes.
[3:24] Sorry.
[3:24] I'm sorry to.
[3:25] Yes.
[3:25] Everybody was in favor.
[3:26] Okay,
[3:33] let's
[3:38] start with the class counts and we can't go away. I'm going to skip the
[3:44] field of mine over the monthly maintenance district. Okay, on this one, we can't make a
[3:50] motion on this yet, but I'm just going to plant the idea. If you look at those numbers,
[3:58] if you've got your numbers in front of you, okay, I've got to turn in the,
[4:04] I've got to turn
[4:05] for what our division is and the magic number you all know is 105 so 88 we're sitting
[4:11] good for this cohort you go down to the next cohort it's every two years right
[4:16] go down the next cohort this starts with the number 21 in 10th grade and count
[4:20] those next four up that's a hundred that's a hundred it's actually two down from
[4:27] what we were I think this one actually still be off on the other one but we're at a
[4:32] Okay, we're still good, but that's getting close and who knows what we're gonna get between now now.
[4:37] You count that next cohort and it's 112.
[4:41] So that's two alignments for now.
[4:45] But it's every two years.
[4:46] Every two years. That's the 2931 group.
[4:48] Yeah.
[4:49] Okay, so we've got some time.
[4:52] One of the things I suggest that we think about right now.
[4:55] We can't take an action on it.
[4:57] First up, Lisa is going to look at how many of our kids are transfers that are non-employee
[5:03] kids.
[5:04] First up is we start charging $500 a semester per kid for non-employee kid transfers.
[5:13] Get that going first.
[5:15] Now we have a few out of me and then maybe after that we just start turning away transfers.
[5:21] Sometimes I can get ugly, you don't know that.
[5:24] You've got a kid, a bunch of parents that went to school here was a legacy and they've gone to school here since they were a pre-K and now they're in 10th grade and we have to then get ugly.
[5:36] So just think about it, we don't have to make a decision tonight, but just plan a seat for right now about what you'll think about that starting maybe with charging a little bit, that'll lead some of them out and then go from there.
[5:50] I'm going to get an idea of how many transfers we've got that are not important for the kids.
[5:54] First, see if they'll leave and make a difference because that might tell us why not make
[6:00] a difference.
[6:00] You know what I'm saying?
[6:01] It might be our kids and the majority of those.
[6:05] We'll see.
[6:05] We'll see.
[6:06] But I'll get you all that.
[6:07] Got you all that I need?
[6:08] You'll have any questions in the class, can't I?
[6:10] Absolutely.
[6:11] Okay.
[6:13] Lovely maintenance.
[6:14] Of course, most of the maintenance stuff is going to take you up with the stuff that
[6:20] We've got one of the problems with budget doesn't open until September.
[6:24] Some of the things you need to fix, like mowers and things like that.
[6:27] You need to get mowers worked on once mowers.
[6:29] These things over with.
[6:30] I'm going to send one mower out.
[6:32] We'll use the other two mowers.
[6:33] I'll send that mower out.
[6:35] And then we'll use those two mowers.
[6:36] And then the third mower out to get service.
[6:38] Because they're getting in really bad shape.
[6:42] I mean, we use them so much.
[6:43] They're getting a real bad shape.
[6:45] and the bushings go out and all these things go out and they just need a lot of work and they're
[6:50] not cheap, you know, those motors, $15,000 for a motor. So we want to take care of the best we can,
[6:57] but we're going to have to start getting the maintenance on those done.
[7:02] Oh, I had a question. And is that not something Michael could prepare?
[7:05] There are some of the things that they, while they did replace the bushings, they're going to
[7:09] replace the bushings and blades. They're there, some of the things that are on it, they're going to take
[7:12] to do it. Some of the things are going to be rebuilt and we're just going to have to get it.
[7:18] He can't do some of them, but some of that is going to take a more person probably to do on that.
[7:25] What do we take those to?
[7:27] Please read them on right there.
[7:29] Yeah, I'm sure it's that's where I suggest we'll take it.
[7:34] I don't know where they've taken them in the past, but I don't know.
[7:36] Oh, that's good, like, that's why I was asking.
[7:38] Yeah, they're good.
[7:40] We've got a lot of things going up at the field looking good.
[7:47] We've got some extra help and we appreciate that and of course you're down here.
[7:53] We know with the bond projects going here, it's been kind of a mess but there's parking
[7:59] a lot we've talked about today is going to definitely see some attention seeing.
[8:03] I'm going to get a guy to come give me a bid.
[8:05] Of course you can't really do anything until they finish the construction because you've
[8:08] dropped out big trucks over it all the time.
[8:10] They are going to concrete that front of that the new addition if they're going to concrete in the front side of that
[8:17] So let's see how far that goes out before they come and give you an idea on our
[8:21] parking lot for front and back
[8:23] Did you see the back the back is really bad so bad is that that but not a lot you do with concrete trucks and
[8:31] Big trucks driving over right now like that
[8:35] Anybody have any question
[8:44] How do you get stuck on the intercept?
[8:46] How do you get stuck on the intercept?
[8:49] How do you get stuck on the intercept?
[8:50] Well, you're up.
[8:51] I can't just get in.
[8:52] I can't.
[8:53] He's so finished.
[8:53] Anybody have any questions about monthly meetings?
[9:01] No, we have questions.
[9:02] Can you hear that?
[9:02] Let's see.
[9:04] I'm in a principal report.
[9:06] You got really good.
[9:07] You got really good.
[9:08] You got really good.
[9:09] Get your resume.
[9:19] I have a whole lot.
[9:21] I'm sorry, but we have this month.
[9:23] That's the fault that's the fault.
[9:27] Lately in the elementary, we're testing kindergarten
[9:31] through third grade, we're doing our C-curide
[9:32] divils testing right now.
[9:33] And that's our reading inventory.
[9:35] Our reading test, that we give to our elementary kids.
[9:38] And part of that has to be sent to the state
[9:40] for state first grade.
[9:42] So we are doing that.
[9:45] I don't know if that's really going to happen.
[9:48] Can I take my time back real quick, just one thing?
[9:50] Now, if you would heads up in November, November the 17th, it's a Monday, it's a Monday before
[9:57] Thanksgiving.
[9:58] We give out our community involvement stipends that day, it's November 17th, and Freedom
[10:04] usually comes and sometimes some of you guys just want to let you on that Monday, November
[10:09] 17th.
[10:09] You've got one more board meeting, our Maggialligan, and if you want to come, November 17th,
[10:13] it helps pass out.
[10:14] It goes a check stumps to the staff.
[10:19] Plus how are you doing on staffing?
[10:21] I think we're good.
[10:22] You're good?
[10:23] Yeah.
[10:25] We're rocking and rolling.
[10:26] It's fun.
[10:27] Great.
[10:28] I think it's just six weeks to get it given.
[10:31] I feel like this has been the craziest first of the year.
[10:34] We've had it in a while so it's fun.
[10:36] Crazy ride.
[10:37] I love kids.
[10:38] A lot of new kids.
[10:40] I know that we have a lot of arts.
[10:44] Our babies are for our special kids.
[10:46] So, we have had quite a few from the first, well,
[10:51] whenever we started school till now.
[10:52] So, Ms. Hyves has been, they've got to adopt working
[10:55] on all of her paperwork.
[10:58] So, I'm appreciative that we send her a sign
[11:01] to just do that because I can tell you
[11:03] that the amount of paperwork that the state requires now,
[11:06] our special ed teachers would not be able to teach
[11:10] the amount of, just the amounts of paperwork in.
[11:13] And I don't know if you, we're in a audit year,
[11:15] for our special ed files. So we don't know what files are cool. So that's in June, I think.
[11:23] They'll come in and just ask for the report of their files. So Ms. Pops is working closely with
[11:28] SSA, which is our shared service arrangement. They have their lead diagnostician, which is Melissa's
[11:34] sheer that comes in. It meets with her once plus a week and goes through all of our paperwork,
[11:42] We're just hoping that we have it all together before we have that audit because if we don't then we have to go back and redo.
[11:50] So we did set that as I knew that was coming this last year and I was like there's no way a teacher can teach and do the amount of paperwork.
[11:59] I know Friday, I think she most days I don't even see her.
[12:02] Usually I used to out with zero which is hot but now she's down there in her office topping away.
[12:08] So I know Friday she she worked a long time trying to get this they were I mean
[12:14] It's like you would like just like three page essay on a student
[12:18] And I've got it's the homework has to be very very detailed and certain things are looking for so and if you remember three years ago
[12:26] We've got a real bad thing
[12:29] For six years
[12:32] six. You know we'll stuck in that for six years. We're trying. We want to make sure we don't
[12:36] about it. It's in T.A. And even though we corrected it, T.A. won't take it off. It stays on us for six
[12:42] years. So we need to make sure this is right so we're going to get another one. Sure. Okay.
[12:46] All right. This depends on who, what auditor you have, because one of them is going to look for one thing,
[12:53] and the other one's going to look for one thing. If you don't have certain words, but hopefully Melissa,
[12:57] She's a ex attorney, so she goes through them to come, so hopefully she's got to appreciate it that we did that, because if not our teachers would not be able to teach this amounts of paperwork.
[13:19] Tracy, yeah, we're a hospital, sorry.
[13:24] We need a Monday off after homecoming.
[13:26] they get along my back, that's it.
[13:27] Yes, we must set it.
[13:29] We are looking at our own way and I have already made it,
[13:32] let's see we let it be.
[13:33] Just moved forward.
[13:34] This is coming towards theís coming wonít say it last week.
[13:37] It was just non.ít
[13:39] by going through the weekend We kind of got back. They
[13:42] say we were really grateful to them to currents and
[13:44] Bigger is helping to teach those people to light a light
[13:48] all separated. That was pretty fun. We tried to
[13:50] safeguard our plums as long as we could. Most of our kids
[13:54] left alone, but you know, there's always one. It's kind of
[13:56] ass who shan't against going to put her in the bed.
[13:59] Um, you want to do it? That's crazy.
[14:02] They announced it at the pepper hour.
[14:03] I don't remember now, but yeah, I did.
[14:07] Um, so as she said, uh, we got felt all that's a little
[14:11] in the 27th of October to Monday.
[14:15] We did it on Monday because the rest of the week was gold with either church
[14:19] night or sports or Halloween is actually on that Friday night and we did not
[14:26] want to do it then because usually everybody's going somewhere else and we
[14:31] didn't want to invite the shenanigans that sometimes go on and Halloween. So so my
[14:36] kind of jar of harmless brains are going to be funny. So did you say 5 or 5.30 but
[14:41] But did you, I got it on your biker, said 30 people to lose.
[14:45] And if you know anybody that wants to have a booth,
[14:48] they just need to let us know.
[14:49] Yeah, I've invited all of the local churches
[14:52] who just love things in the ass.
[14:54] Some of them have said, yeah, I was like,
[14:55] don't set a table or a booth, and some of them said,
[14:57] no, it's not gonna stop going on.
[14:59] So.
[15:00] Thank you. They're going to be participating. I've got the toy walk down. I've got the cake walk down. The seniors, you know, on the back for the stage. A bunch of teachers are very excited. They're really excited. I think we're going to have a lot of activities warm and fantastic to do. Coronation is a still counting. Cornelsen got his electronic donation form.
[15:29] complete and they're sending out once but I'm gonna send it out in the morning I'm
[15:34] making a distribution list in the parentsware just for the parents of the
[15:40] formation due to the duchess and I'm gonna send them that link so they can
[15:45] forward it around to friends and family to their email to get donations because we've
[15:50] had such good luck with the online campaigns to raise funds. It's a great idea.
[15:56] Let's just do this. Isn't that way when you click on it and go into Zephy, it allows you to put in the amount and then when you hit max, then you select from a drop down list, which grade?
[16:09] So each other, which student does just to attribute it to? And then this enter in the way it goes. It's great.
[16:15] So, hopefully, that will be successful because some more funds, other than that, where you're
[16:21] working on a star, we've got about four students who we're working on for retakes in December.
[16:28] The teachers have started working on their growth measure goals with me.
[16:33] And I think that right now is it. That's our point of view.
[16:41] Okay, thank you.
[16:45] Athletics.
[16:46] Good.
[16:47] Okay, we're coming off our way.
[16:49] We're coming, it was very exciting.
[16:51] I will say this, been first year here,
[16:56] and seeing their plane drop back, apparently,
[16:59] it was awesome seeing the crowds
[17:01] at all the different activities for the taco dinners,
[17:05] and bomb part on that at no time.
[17:07] So I felt like the community was really involved.
[17:13] We've got a few things we've got to give fix over there, but it's part of construction.
[17:19] Fast and pure, start district this week in football, and volleyball.
[17:25] Start tomorrow in volleyball. Start a Thursday in football with like Milford.
[17:34] Cross country district. We're hosting Winston.
[17:38] It starts at 4 o'clock.
[17:39] But I think the last time I looked at it, I think there was about 65 to 70 kids for the
[17:46] district meeting.
[17:47] So it won't be nowhere near what we're like our regular invitation, but it should run
[17:53] pretty smart.
[17:54] That's going to start at 4 o'clock.
[17:56] All right.
[17:56] And these just kids are going to have trash before the meeting, too.
[17:59] Make sure they put it out.
[18:09] We finished our fundraiser, not too long ago, we raised a little over $10,000 in the fundraiser,
[18:17] and I've been able to help.
[18:20] We've already ordered a bunch of stuff to take care of.
[18:23] reports, news, warm up, travel suits for the bar stays out, about getting some new uniforms
[18:32] for the junior high girls programs, some for the junior high boys programs as well, so I'm
[18:39] not sure.
[18:40] Junior high needs it's 11?
[18:41] Yes.
[18:42] I'm also in the process with my uniform much of this year, I'm buying junior high new basketball
[19:02] I don't know because I don't pay, but a couple of people questioned about, I guess we raised our process of the gate.
[19:09] Yeah, so no I'm glad it's a don't know executive committee decision. Oh, okay, so everybody in our district
[19:16] Okay, I have to do the voted on reason being is rep for sure. Sure. Sure. Yeah, so we're starting to lose money
[19:22] So okay, I mean it's six dollars and four dollars as opposed to five and three dollars, so okay, but it's not just it's not coming to
[19:30] Everybody in my district will have the same process. Okay. I had to go to the last man. I was like no idea
[19:36] Basically what it almost accounted for is almost how do you get if you've got 4 ribs
[19:42] Sometimes three, but when you get 4 it's a little over $100 extra each not with what they went up on their face
[19:49] And so where just they felt like moving it up $1
[19:54] Would be credible to the public, but it would still help offset them. Got you
[19:59] Kind of I mean one game is $4, $500
[20:03] dollars. I put that out there. It wasn't a kevington decision so it was the entire
[20:09] district. Good to know. Good to know. All right, you have anything else? No, it's okay.
[20:18] You're up. I remember that one.
[20:26] It's a little bit last minute but working to get a
[20:30] relationship clinic going on Monday since all the kids are off school you know
[20:34] yes they're all a little salty that's they're like oh miss we can't see
[20:39] pin come on but it's four of the kids that have animal projects there at the
[20:44] barn and those that just have projects within the program in general and
[20:48] especially like lambs and we now have a new addition of having a pig in the
[20:54] We are getting our rabbit and new chicken arms out of their f-marm, which my 7th period
[21:01] is going every day with Mr. Swilly to go on it.
[21:06] I keep half, he takes half, so he has to split that up and tag team that.
[21:12] I will be getting showmanship fliers out for these students so that way they can take them
[21:18] home for their parents to see.
[21:20] So it's not just for the students to come, but their parents come out to
[21:23] type deal.
[21:25] Our fundraiser that we recently had from sites, which was our meats and cookies, today was the last day for them to sell anything
[21:32] and to start turning in their papers and their money and stuff like that, so that way we can get orders rocking and rolling, and next week we can
[21:40] finalize that order.
[21:42] Well, it's an order monomon. That was pretty nice. Oh yeah, I think that might be easier.
[21:47] I was looking at how much of a struggle it was this year just to get one kid selling it and parents notified
[21:54] Hey, your kid got sent home with this fundraiser
[21:57] Because I got so many calls and so many emails from parents saying
[22:01] Why is my kid only got four days and I'm like, okay next year I'm saying I don't email when I send them out
[22:06] So because they've had two full weeks
[22:09] Yeah, I've not heard from anyone and I saw it online from my
[22:19] I think I'm going to do that and have Ms. UCP hand-time team with me of getting a
[22:25] week sent out the first day that they're passed out and male parents say, hey, I
[22:30] sent this for home with your kid. This is what we got going on. This is what it's
[22:34] do, y'all, y'all, y'all. I think that might be a little easier when to save not only our
[22:40] buds, but to save your kids, but also because I don't want them to get in trouble.
[22:44] So for me, Tom, hey, yeah, they've had them for two weeks, but so far, I've had quite a bit of kids already turn them in, they're like, hey, we sold them quite a bit.
[22:53] My officers, at least three of them as far as I know, have went above and beyond their minimum items to sell, which was ten, just so they could lead by example.
[23:05] so they've been a really good job at that. Our early e-teams, our leadership
[23:13] development teams for the fall, I have at least two going, I have a green-hand
[23:18] creed team with a couple students that are wanting to do at least one in-person
[23:23] contest at the Cleveland invitation, which is up to work with team. Unfortunately
[23:28] there is a waiting list because green-hand creed is very popular because it's
[23:33] getting all of the first-year kids and all of the even second-year kids getting
[23:37] and going to the creed. Trying to get that problem. So we're waiting for that
[23:42] wait was to kind of go down so we can get in there and get problem. Same thing
[23:46] with an online option which is the following week on October 22nd. So I want to
[23:52] try to get these kids more motivated to set up their taught field. We've discussed
[23:58] the creed so that way they can get their packets.
[24:03] Our
[24:06] next meeting I am trying to get dates set
[24:11] for next FFA chapter meeting where not only it's just students but parents are invited as well
[24:17] to where they can have their own thing separate from the kids where they kids can have it inside
[24:21] parents can have it outside if they wanted to but trying to figure out between either sports or church
[24:28] or any other outside school organizations is a little, it's hard, it's hard, it is, because
[24:35] I don't want to do it on a Wednesday and then take church from a lot of these kids who attend church.
[24:40] So, probably about a Monday or Tuesday beforehand, and that last week we went to a
[24:46] place where I probably should do work.
[24:51] With our AgMec projects, we're slowly getting started.
[24:55] I'm still trying to get students to turn in plans with their want to do, and exactly what materials
[25:00] are wanting to do four county shows coming up in the second week of October in
[25:06] January. Part of inches. We have a whole list of projects of what we can get
[25:14] rolling and especially for local members and community members it's just
[25:19] finding the right kids that are motivated to get some of them. We'd like to go
[25:27] so we're having a redri...
[25:30] redri...
[25:31] redri...
[25:32] we're trying to do redri...
[25:34] Redri...
[25:35] we're trying to do redri...
[25:36] You can start at the wall, sure.
[25:39] I
[25:42] had this check has something else.
[25:44] What she did, some projects, I know many...
[25:46] I know for both of those over.
[25:48] Many chairs were...
[25:49] my room is dangerous.
[25:51] Your room is dangerous.
[25:53] How does concession go?
[25:55] I know it's small and there was some complaint about that,
[25:57] But overall, how did it go?
[26:00] It was good.
[26:02] It's to work in progress, because we've got to change
[26:05] the way we do things to make it work.
[26:09] And we're getting there.
[26:10] But it's one of those deals by the end of the year.
[26:13] We'll have a damn.
[26:14] We'll have a damn.
[26:16] I understand that.
[26:16] They've done too.
[26:18] The second one's a lot better than the first one.
[26:20] So every time we get better, it's just getting there.
[26:25] It's going to be all right.
[26:26] Good deal.
[26:26] And next year we'll have more home games too.
[26:29] Yeah.
[26:29] We will have as many a week and then we'll get more practice.
[26:32] That's true.
[26:32] That too.
[26:33] Okay.
[26:34] Thank you all very much.
[26:38] Okay.
[26:39] Consider approving the insurance of a school credit card.
[26:42] It's standing limit of $5,000 to my Frazier fleet mechanic.
[26:45] It's recommended by Pram Frazier.
[26:50] Is there any discussion about that?
[26:51] No.
[26:52] No, I don't know.
[26:54] Here's the, he's down there working and he needs it.
[26:58] He needs an item.
[26:58] Yes, come up here and get credit card from somebody or fees in town already. I mean he has to get a credit card from somebody up here
[27:06] And it'd be just a little bit simpler if he had his own card to go ahead and get that so that's what that's about
[27:14] Any discussion or does someone make a moat want to make a motion?
[27:18] I'll make a motion to the proof they shouldn't sort of go credit card $5,000 for Mike Fraser Georgia makes a motion do we have a second?
[27:26] All second.
[27:28] 20 seconds.
[27:29] Better catch up.
[27:33] All those in favor?
[27:36] Everyone is in favor, Georgia.
[27:38] No one opposed, motion carries.
[27:42] Okay, executive session.
[27:46] Thank you all for coming.
[27:47] Appreciate you all.
[27:50] I got like five out of the executive session at 8.27.
[27:57] Somebody likes to make a motion?
[28:01] Kevin Ray makes a motion to adjourn, Dwayne makes, Dwayne seconds. All those are favour.
