I think that's partly one one 186 00:11:38,710 --> 00:11:45,350 the care of the teachers, but two, I would attribute that to our 4-day school week because 187 00:11:45,350 --> 00:11:48,950 our kids aren't being taken up for athletics, they're not being taken up for other things. 188 00:11:49,930 --> 00:11:54,210 And I'm not going to lie, we have a bunch of that just a little bit across the country 189 00:11:54,210 --> 00:11:54,650 here there. 190 00:11:55,090 --> 00:12:01,930 But I'm being quiet, but for the most part, I think that that's been the greatest thing. 191 00:12:04,070 --> 00:12:09,870 We were able to win state in basketball, in girl's basketball last year, our drama program 192 00:12:09,870 --> 00:12:10,330 is strong. 193 00:12:10,690 --> 00:12:12,970 We have a great drama program that's doing great things. 194 00:12:15,050 --> 00:12:21,330 We had eight, nine kids come to the UBTEC last year, we went out from our 12 seniors, nine 195 00:12:21,330 --> 00:12:24,730 of them were coming to the UBTEC, they're going to graduate from these two certificates 196 00:12:24,730 --> 00:12:27,370 from UBTEC, they're just doing great things. 197 00:12:29,050 --> 00:12:34,770 And I think the thing that I'm kind of the most proud of, because I designed it, I guess, 198 00:12:34,910 --> 00:12:35,130 amazing. 199 00:12:36,130 --> 00:12:40,650 But we had the honor of last year was the pilot program for our defense of learning 200 00:12:40,650 --> 00:12:45,490 in the district and then things and you get a lot of you guys came up for that and it was 201 00:12:45,490 --> 00:12:50,130 a great opportunity for our eighth graders to defend what they were as eighth graders 202 00:12:50,130 --> 00:12:58,000 years. And I kind of came up with this little medal. I told my $10 if they'd become distinguished 203 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,380 in me. And I thought, as I got thinking about it before our awards, and we went like, 204 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:09,200 $10 is stupid. You know, anybody can get a $10 bill here. Here's a ten. So I came up with 205 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:15,460 this little, I was like, let's give this gold, but so I, we developed this gold medal here, 206 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,960 and then we invited him to our high school banquet, and we presented to him at our high school 207 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:26,660 banquet so they could get some gold in front of all their high school peers and it was phenomenal. 208 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,640 The beaming look on our eighth graders face that night was a thought. 209 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:36,120 It was just amazing and it was super fun to one fell off of my pocket. 210 00:13:37,900 --> 00:13:40,420 Anyway, and then they can pop them off if they want. 211 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:48,080 This with this kid, the mom is actually helps me in the office a little bit. 212 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:53,440 in her spare time, she's a, and they, but she helped me in this, and I said, do you have 213 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:58,500 that medal you're someone? And the look on her face was just astounding. Yeah, I'll 214 00:13:58,500 --> 00:14:03,400 get it. So she ran home and grabbed it and brought it back to me for you to write. It was 215 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:09,260 just phenomenal just to see the sense of accomplishment that our kids had as they defended their learning 216 00:14:09,260 --> 00:14:15,400 and they felt pride in a few things. We had a few kids that didn't make it. And we worked 217 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:19,240 really hard to get them, because we were at the pilot school. 218 00:14:19,300 --> 00:14:22,360 We let the one we long, but the other one helped back 219 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:27,660 himself, not on my marriage, but he's like, no, I'm staying 220 00:14:27,660 --> 00:14:28,860 back and being great in. 221 00:14:29,740 --> 00:14:35,580 And so it was kind of cool that he felt that way a little 222 00:14:35,580 --> 00:14:36,100 bit himself. 223 00:14:36,380 --> 00:14:39,820 And so anyway, that's the great things that 224 00:14:39,820 --> 00:14:40,840 are happening to have you on this. 225 00:14:41,300 --> 00:14:42,080 Thank you. 226 00:14:42,420 --> 00:14:43,180 Any questions? 227 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:51,260 But having gone up to the defensive learning for the first time, I thought it was awesome to see those kids. 228 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,560 And I liked the feedback that was provided. 229 00:14:54,260 --> 00:14:56,400 I think it'll just get better going forward. 230 00:14:56,580 --> 00:14:57,560 But I thought it was awesome. 231 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,880 First, try how it not to blink at it. 232 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:05,960 How this was going to work, and so I was very impressed with it. The students that did present some. 233 00:15:07,980 --> 00:15:20,320 I enjoyed it as well, but I don't buy your, your dirt deal today, but it is looking good. Yeah, it's just dirt right now, but they moved a lot of us today. 234 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:30,360 Thank you. Are you ready, or do you want me to level up? 235 00:15:48,380 --> 00:15:55,460 So this is a presentation about your summer programs so we were initially approached to have 236 00:15:55,460 --> 00:16:01,180 of students come and present on the summer act program and turns out September's a busy time 237 00:16:01,180 --> 00:16:04,700 for our kids to love. Kids that would have been here tonight are actually still involved in their 238 00:16:04,700 --> 00:16:10,160 fall show series. There's a bunch of shows in and around the state fair. So a lot of them are up in 239 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:14,120 cash value right now as I understand right. A big show that would have been here to just see some 240 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:19,380 pictures of them here in a minute. And we also had Alta months homecoming patches or something 241 00:16:19,380 --> 00:16:24,380 all night, right? So maybe that took another bunch of amounts. So when, of course, we're going to be 242 00:16:24,380 --> 00:16:28,100 any students here, but we do have some pictures to show and to talk a little bit about the summer 243 00:16:28,100 --> 00:16:32,980 act program. We'll try to be as quick as possible with this. We're able to find those. 244 00:16:34,950 --> 00:16:38,130 I thought I did, but clearly it was not. Yeah, I was sure. 245 00:16:38,470 --> 00:16:40,750 That's not the problem. Yeah, none of those are. 246 00:16:42,630 --> 00:16:46,990 Well, we don't give the pictures. I can ship them to you. You can look at them a little later. 247 00:16:47,230 --> 00:16:51,730 But can we wait four teachers that ran the summer program this summer? Each teacher 248 00:16:52,430 --> 00:16:59,250 It works with 35 students for 360 hours each, and then they have to log the visits with 249 00:16:59,250 --> 00:17:01,630 all the things that they do, and they mentor them on everything. 250 00:17:02,950 --> 00:17:06,470 Of course, on one end of the spectrum is the highly traditional agricultural projects 251 00:17:06,470 --> 00:17:09,850 that they do, the livestock projects, crops, gardens, etc. 252 00:17:10,670 --> 00:17:13,810 On the other end, there are some very unique ones that are in business for themselves. 253 00:17:13,810 --> 00:17:17,990 We have one that's rebuilding the sawmill, trying to get a sawmill up and going. 254 00:17:18,170 --> 00:17:19,390 This is a high school kid, right? 255 00:17:19,390 --> 00:17:24,790 maybe a song they'll go in. What are some other help me add teachers? Some of them 256 00:17:24,790 --> 00:17:29,030 wasn't without the presentation. We have one that I thought he would actually be 257 00:17:29,030 --> 00:17:33,530 here tonight but he is like a song or single-handedly his family has brought 258 00:17:33,530 --> 00:17:39,210 the poultry programs to life in Dushan County. They're just really happy in 259 00:17:39,210 --> 00:17:44,210 poultry and things that they do. We have some there are landscapeers doing 260 00:17:44,210 --> 00:17:48,830 landscaping business. So the summer act program is an entrepreneurship program 261 00:17:48,830 --> 00:17:55,510 And even if you take a livestock program and boil it down to its essentials, it is entrepreneurship. 262 00:17:56,050 --> 00:18:00,350 Because they buy the animal, they invest all the time in money into it, then they resell the animal. 263 00:18:00,650 --> 00:18:02,190 Same as any enterprise in business. 264 00:18:02,770 --> 00:18:05,190 So that's what the program is. 265 00:18:06,090 --> 00:18:08,030 We're glad that we're able to do it again. 266 00:18:08,490 --> 00:18:13,870 It's a rough road every year, rather than we get approved for some program or not. 267 00:18:13,870 --> 00:18:18,510 And we were holding on tight to see if we could improve this year and it did. 268 00:18:19,110 --> 00:18:22,490 So anyway, we're just grateful for the support of the Board in letting us do it. 269 00:18:22,970 --> 00:18:29,010 It is a state program, but we definitely depend on your support as well to run the program. 270 00:18:29,550 --> 00:18:35,030 And I'll shift your pictures on this, shift them out to you at the separate ladies' presentations where you can see the kids. 271 00:18:35,430 --> 00:18:36,550 So give me questions. 272 00:18:37,250 --> 00:18:38,870 How many kids did you have in summer? 273 00:18:38,870 --> 00:18:46,110 Summer so this year they changed the parameters on our reporting we could only report 35 each 35 students each 274 00:18:46,110 --> 00:18:48,330 But in the past we would have 275 00:18:49,570 --> 00:18:57,690 We were easily 50 students each and then we also could only report a minimum of two visits you could do more than that 276 00:18:57,690 --> 00:19:02,990 But we had a minimum of threshold of 140 visits, but historically we were logging like 277 00:19:04,130 --> 00:19:06,670 Contact visits with the kids throughout the summer 278 00:19:06,670 --> 00:19:11,730 or so. We run it. Probably a little more intense than a lot of 279 00:19:11,730 --> 00:19:17,670 school districts do. Probably due to our ruralness a little bit and just so 280 00:19:17,670 --> 00:19:25,350 many kids involved in it and move it forward. So county fairs where probably 50% 281 00:19:25,350 --> 00:19:30,610 of our projects are exhibited in county fairs somewhere or another. And so 282 00:19:30,610 --> 00:19:33,330 that's an easy one to wrap your head around, but I want to invite you to just think 283 00:19:33,330 --> 00:19:36,210 about a demand for the other 50% what are they doing, right? 284 00:19:36,330 --> 00:19:37,650 So they're doing some really cool stuff. 285 00:19:37,850 --> 00:19:40,070 You'll see some of those pictures and presentations. 286 00:19:40,910 --> 00:19:42,530 So thank you. 287 00:19:42,830 --> 00:19:43,150 Thank you. 288 00:19:43,310 --> 00:19:43,490 Thank you. 289 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,100 Hey, now on to our financial report. 290 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:55,600 I'm fine stuff. 291 00:19:56,120 --> 00:19:57,100 The money stuff? 292 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,340 There's so much here again. 293 00:20:00,780 --> 00:20:04,140 It's going on August with school not quite started at that point. 294 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:12,020 I'm just getting going, so not a lot of members there yet, so what do you want to report? 295 00:20:12,220 --> 00:20:13,540 I should have any questions there. 296 00:20:17,360 --> 00:20:17,980 I think we're good. 297 00:20:18,820 --> 00:20:21,280 Do you need anything or just report? 298 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,400 So we are now to the open time portion of our board meeting. 299 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:33,940 This is an opportunity for any who want to inform the board as to their feelings on a certain issue. 300 00:20:33,940 --> 00:20:38,500 Those who want to speak should have already signed up on a request document. 301 00:20:39,100 --> 00:20:51,660 We remind those who wish to address the board to keep their comments appropriate in the presence of children as they could be asked, could access what is being said. 302 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:58,900 Please do not use a public comment to complain about personnel issues or attack or defame an individual. 303 00:20:58,900 --> 00:21:02,620 We have eight people who have signed up to address the board today. 304 00:21:03,220 --> 00:21:04,940 This is how we will proceed. 305 00:21:05,580 --> 00:21:09,800 As I read your name from the list, please come to the podium and respectfully speak to 306 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:10,120 the board. 307 00:21:10,580 --> 00:21:13,840 Each person will have two and a half minutes to speak. 308 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,040 The board will listen but most likely will not interact with you. 309 00:21:18,300 --> 00:21:23,580 However, if a board member does ask a clarifying question or two, you will be given that much 310 00:21:23,580 --> 00:21:25,420 extra time to continue your thought. 311 00:21:25,420 --> 00:21:30,960 What?

I'm a senior at Union High School 372 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,940 and I'd like to talk on behalf of Coach Labor in our baseball program. 373 00:25:49,540 --> 00:25:53,880 I've had the opportunity to play for Union baseball program for the last three years. 374 00:25:53,880 --> 00:26:00,720 It is, I'm understanding that Coach Layroom was asked to decide between coaching us and 375 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,140 working as an admin for our school. 376 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,720 This is an impossible decision since we need him out of school, but we really need him 377 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:07,520 as our coach as well. 378 00:26:08,580 --> 00:26:11,720 And my time playing for Coach Layroom might have learned that I have a brother or a team 379 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:17,260 in, and I learned that program team self, and to do what is best for the program, he has 380 00:26:17,260 --> 00:26:19,400 helped me achieve my dream of playing baseball in college. 381 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,860 Coach Layroom has taught me that sometimes doing what is best for the team is hard. 382 00:26:23,860 --> 00:26:28,480 hard and challenging. That is why I'm talking today. I'm doing what it's hard. I believe 383 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:33,300 that what is best for our team is Coach Levin. We need his leadership and his expertise. 384 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:39,000 He is a leader who can do both roles, be a coach and be an administrator. He's successful. 385 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:44,120 This past season has led us to our second state championship in three years. He balanced 386 00:26:44,120 --> 00:26:48,300 both jobs perfectly and has shown us what is possible when you do what's best for the team. 387 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,540 I hope that you consider what I've shared with you today.

During my years growing up as a baseball player 438 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,740 I've been playing childball for around 10 years 439 00:30:49,740 --> 00:30:52,180 and I've been forward to the day that I would play for Coach Levin. 440 00:30:53,260 --> 00:30:56,140 I could tell that he had built a very successful program 441 00:30:56,140 --> 00:30:58,540 and had been impactful in something that was eager to engage in. 442 00:31:00,500 --> 00:31:02,860 Being a part of last year's season as a freshman I could see 443 00:31:02,860 --> 00:31:05,460 the excelling environment that Coach Levin has produced 444 00:31:05,460 --> 00:31:06,800 through all the years he has coached. 445 00:31:06,980 --> 00:31:08,540 He's influenced every practice and game, 446 00:31:08,780 --> 00:31:10,700 helped us improve every day in silence community, 447 00:31:10,900 --> 00:31:12,760 so he led us to successful seeding, 448 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,200 including our state temperature. 449 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,880 His impact on our team has been a huge factor in success 450 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,520 and growth for those players, 451 00:31:20,700 --> 00:31:25,180 not only did he contribute to us growing his baseball players, 452 00:31:25,340 --> 00:31:26,820 but also has great young men. 453 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:28,900 Coach Levin were able to come back 454 00:31:28,900 --> 00:31:30,100 and coach for this team, 455 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:31,360 it would surely be a great opportunity 456 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,100 for this program to keep growing 457 00:31:33,100 --> 00:31:34,340 and having successful seasons. 458 00:31:34,340 --> 00:31:38,840 Thank you for your time and consideration on it, born out of Cushair. 459 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:40,700 Thank you, Mr. Bridges, for coming. 460 00:31:44,020 --> 00:31:45,040 This is Oakley. 461 00:31:52,270 --> 00:31:55,010 Just to the record, I was not planning to necessarily talk. 462 00:31:55,290 --> 00:31:58,290 The boys asked me to kind of talk. 463 00:31:59,690 --> 00:32:03,990 First of all, I'm just incredibly proud of them for coming and letting their voice be heard. 464 00:32:04,290 --> 00:32:08,490 Because this was not preempted by Coach Labour. 465 00:32:08,490 --> 00:32:11,250 I don't even think Coach Labour knows that we're here, honestly. 466 00:32:12,230 --> 00:32:14,930 And I'm coming to you in a different, a couple different perspectives. 467 00:32:15,150 --> 00:32:21,730 One, my son is Ryan, who spoke first, and I probably will get emotional talking about 468 00:32:21,730 --> 00:32:25,390 it because I have watched Ryan become a man playing Coach Labour. 469 00:32:26,310 --> 00:32:31,370 He's had a lot of turnover with basketball coaches, it's not been an awful experience, but 470 00:32:31,370 --> 00:32:35,490 his experience in baseball has been one of the kind that I can't even put into words 471 00:32:35,490 --> 00:32:36,530 was what it has done for him. 472 00:32:38,370 --> 00:32:44,650 It took one text for him to send and for Dylan and their senior class to organize this 473 00:32:44,650 --> 00:32:46,130 and you can see how many showed up. 474 00:32:47,690 --> 00:32:51,170 And then I come to you also as somebody who works alongside Matt. 475 00:32:51,890 --> 00:32:57,770 I'm actually Matt's assistant athletic director, so I hand in hand with him as an athletic 476 00:32:57,770 --> 00:32:58,270 director. 477 00:32:58,470 --> 00:33:04,570 I'm actually in the middle of my capstone project and we'll have my master's degree by the 478 00:33:04,570 --> 00:33:10,950 first in a member in school administration. I am working closely with Ben, with Matt, with Heather. 479 00:33:11,950 --> 00:33:17,490 And I can tell you that Matt is doing a phenomenal job at balancing everything he's doing. 480 00:33:17,910 --> 00:33:24,550 He is, just like Dylan said, he is changing the culture of union one athlete, one person, 481 00:33:24,710 --> 00:33:30,690 one teacher at a time. And I think it's an impossible decision for him to choose between such amazing 482 00:33:30,690 --> 00:33:37,550 roles that he is thriving. He is absolutely thriving and as a coach, I myself have coached 483 00:33:37,550 --> 00:33:42,990 for almost 20 years and I can't imagine being put in a position. I just think it speaks 484 00:33:42,990 --> 00:33:49,310 the world of math that he chose the school, knowing that this was not, like this was possibly 485 00:33:49,670 --> 00:33:55,330 the consequence, but we need him so bad to keep raising those kids, keep coaching those kids, 486 00:33:55,570 --> 00:34:00,030 keep being there. I mean, I've been 11-year-old, I want my 11-year-old to play for him. We have 487 00:34:00,030 --> 00:34:03,150 of an incredible culture in the athletic department 488 00:34:03,150 --> 00:34:04,130 because of what he's doing. 489 00:34:05,170 --> 00:34:06,450 And I hope you read the letter. 490 00:34:06,590 --> 00:34:08,230 I hope that what the voice has written, 491 00:34:09,090 --> 00:34:11,450 it is not from us, it is from them. 492 00:34:12,990 --> 00:34:15,450 I know that other parents in here came to support 493 00:34:15,450 --> 00:34:18,350 their kids, and I hope you guys would consider 494 00:34:18,350 --> 00:34:22,950 what we have to say, but I think Matt is a phenomenal leader, 495 00:34:23,130 --> 00:34:25,810 but he is, in my opinion, more of a phenomenal coach 496 00:34:25,810 --> 00:34:28,010 than he is, so thank you. 497 00:34:35,380 --> 00:34:41,120 Thank you for coming Ms. O'Lean. Thank you for what you do for us as a teacher and coach. 498 00:34:42,060 --> 00:34:47,340 And thank you for being spot on time. Did anybody catch that in two minutes and 30 seconds to the minute? 499 00:34:48,260 --> 00:34:49,040 All right, Mr. Foote. 500 00:34:55,930 --> 00:35:00,350 I'm here also as a parent. God put us by son. You saw we were here back. 501 00:35:00,930 --> 00:35:02,970 As he mentioned, I have two other sons that played for Matt. 502 00:35:02,970 --> 00:35:10,050 And I actually coached with that in the football field as well as with the other coach 503 00:35:10,050 --> 00:35:10,590 at the year. 504 00:35:11,390 --> 00:35:14,830 And I've seen the difference between great coaches and not as great. 505 00:35:15,650 --> 00:35:17,970 I grew up in a family where no education was necessary. 506 00:35:19,030 --> 00:35:20,110 Neither one of my parents would college. 507 00:35:21,470 --> 00:35:27,430 I would college mainly because I had a great coach in high school, who pushed me to be the best 508 00:35:27,430 --> 00:35:29,130 I could be in or not as college to college. 509 00:35:29,650 --> 00:35:32,690 And when it wasn't for that, I wouldn't be here, obviously. 510 00:35:33,430 --> 00:35:34,410 My kids wouldn't be here. 511 00:35:34,590 --> 00:35:35,350 They wouldn't do it somewhere else. 512 00:35:35,470 --> 00:35:36,730 It's done south, Mississippi problem. 513 00:35:38,670 --> 00:35:44,250 But what I can tell you is that if there's a policy that he has to choose being an administrator 514 00:35:44,250 --> 00:35:47,170 and being a coach, I've been at a policy just wrong. 515 00:35:48,090 --> 00:35:52,170 You're depriving young men, young women, if it's a woman coach or whatever, 516 00:35:52,690 --> 00:35:56,710 of having the very best around them for a lot of time. 517 00:35:57,570 --> 00:36:01,910 I don't even back shows correctly. He's sharing his gifts with everybody in the school right now. 518 00:36:03,970 --> 00:36:07,330 But he came with a prize to these I'm going to give him here. 519 00:36:08,350 --> 00:36:10,630 If they don't spend that time with someone, that calendar. 520 00:36:12,170 --> 00:36:15,750 That's what we're defining people here. We're going to write to those of those students 521 00:36:15,750 --> 00:36:18,650 who would have that opportunity to play for someone like that, 522 00:36:19,090 --> 00:36:21,670 to push them to be the grades that they can be in, not in school, 523 00:36:22,210 --> 00:36:24,190 and not just an infield, not in sports. 524 00:36:24,710 --> 00:36:26,710 that would be the greatest they could be at anything. 525 00:36:27,650 --> 00:36:28,350 That's what he does. 526 00:36:29,090 --> 00:36:30,010 And I've seen it first thing. 527 00:36:31,490 --> 00:36:33,750 And to deprive the kids of something like that, 528 00:36:34,110 --> 00:36:37,190 just as a rule, to keep order, or whatever, 529 00:36:37,470 --> 00:36:39,250 and I don't know the reason why, 530 00:36:39,390 --> 00:36:41,290 if that's the rule, or whatever it may be. 531 00:36:41,730 --> 00:36:44,430 You're depriving the students of having a mentor 532 00:36:44,430 --> 00:36:46,130 and having a leader amongst them 533 00:36:46,670 --> 00:36:49,330 who really can make a difference in each one of us. 534 00:36:50,090 --> 00:36:51,730 And that's all I have to say. 535 00:36:51,730 --> 00:36:52,390 Thank 536 00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:03,320 you, Mr. Foot, for your comments, Mr. Murray, what's your turn? 537 00:37:04,140 --> 00:37:05,000 Yeah, okay. 538 00:37:07,220 --> 00:37:14,800 So, remember always that my entire, everything that I do in following the district comes from 539 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:20,780 the perspective of somebody who dropped out of high school beginning in third grade, working 540 00:37:20,780 --> 00:37:25,360 So always remember that everything I'm saying is that respect. 541 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:30,860 So last month we talked about ownership a little bit, 542 00:37:31,100 --> 00:37:36,660 then taking ownership of learning, which is what the district would like the students to do. 543 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:45,560 If a student is going to take ownership of someone, it has to be voluntary. 544 00:37:47,100 --> 00:37:55,700 If the district says you couldn't do this voluntarily, and it turns around and it says, 545 00:37:56,600 --> 00:38:00,720 but we're going to call your parents if you don't bring this paper back to us, 546 00:38:01,420 --> 00:38:02,620 then they're forcing. 547 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:10,360 If they say, this is voluntary, but we'll give you a piece of candy if you bring this piece of paper back. 548 00:38:13,340 --> 00:38:17,020 I didn't understand that in a couple of days ago. 549 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:22,080 So I'm saying that there's a difference between having 550 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:27,360 both students buy in to what the district's expectations are 551 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:31,480 and whether the student can take ownership of it 552 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:35,360 or the district can force it. 553 00:38:35,820 --> 00:38:38,200 There's no ownership, it's not voluntary. 554 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:45,940 So, we've got that to be clear what ownership of learning is, integrity 555 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:52,960 in learning. 556 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:55,620 It's not a thing. 557 00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,020 I didn't know that until a couple days ago. 558 00:39:00,420 --> 00:39:02,640 There is no integrity in learning. 559 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:04,940 You've learned what you've learned. 560 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:10,620 Doesn't matter how you learned it, you've learned it, or you didn't. 561 00:39:11,940 --> 00:39:19,500 students take ownership, they learn something, the only place the integrity comes into play 562 00:39:19,500 --> 00:39:26,240 is in the assignments and in the assessments that they don't claim that they know something, 563 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:27,720 they don't. 564 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:34,220 What they know is what they know, it's not about integrity, so I think the students need 565 00:39:34,220 --> 00:39:44,860 recognize that as well. Students, the integrity part is about our assessments. Now if the 566 00:39:44,860 --> 00:39:52,840 students, if the district's intent is to teach integrity in other circumstances, I think the 567 00:39:52,840 --> 00:40:02,540 district needs to lay out what their curriculum is for that so we can be clear what they're trying to 568 00:40:02,540 --> 00:40:06,000 Thank you, Mr. Murray, for your comments. 569 00:40:07,420 --> 00:40:11,440 That brings us to the last person who signed up to speak an open time. 570 00:40:11,980 --> 00:40:16,420 I want to thank all of you for coming and taking time to voice your opinions to us. 571 00:40:17,620 --> 00:40:22,840 We have heard you and will partner. 572 00:40:24,860 --> 00:40:30,740 And we'll move on with the agenda to the approval of the minutes of last month's meeting. 573 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,500 Oh, come on.

Just make sure you see the one on the bottom. The preschool preschool leadership. I had one question on this. The rest looked great. 587 00:42:04,140 --> 00:42:08,660 I was just curious about the five high school teachers to the national electronics show. 588 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:19,220 I mean, that's a big show in Vegas, and I'm not familiar with teachers in the past going. 589 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:25,100 I'm just curious who that request is and what they're reasoning, I guess, because it 590 00:42:25,100 --> 00:42:30,560 just says DCSD, it doesn't say, yeah, school or anything, you see if I can find out. 591 00:42:33,090 --> 00:42:38,530 I think I did know some of the names, but not all of them were officially yet, so I just 592 00:42:41,110 --> 00:42:46,830 So, it's something about a couple of teachers that teach electronics, which are our agents 593 00:42:46,830 --> 00:42:52,450 who will be one of our other Jared Torderson, producing a four-year-old right from Almond. 594 00:42:52,870 --> 00:42:57,030 And then June, the fifth one is myself, because it's in May, is that I think I might need to 595 00:42:57,030 --> 00:42:57,790 do a chat with him. 596 00:42:59,870 --> 00:43:01,570 No, I can see those before. 597 00:43:02,330 --> 00:43:05,290 But what is the purpose of going? 598 00:43:05,290 --> 00:43:08,090 because usually it's just showing new technologies up. 599 00:43:08,230 --> 00:43:09,670 You're just trying to get it out of the way. 600 00:43:09,770 --> 00:43:11,310 Yeah, and I've never been, 601 00:43:11,470 --> 00:43:12,810 when we disclose that first, 602 00:43:13,110 --> 00:43:14,470 then the teachers brought it to me 603 00:43:14,470 --> 00:43:16,810 to see if they get approval to go 604 00:43:16,810 --> 00:43:18,990 and the rationale that they have is, 605 00:43:19,730 --> 00:43:20,790 once you go into the doors, 606 00:43:20,950 --> 00:43:21,910 I don't mean you never been, 607 00:43:22,310 --> 00:43:25,890 but then you branch out and go to every other aspect 608 00:43:25,890 --> 00:43:29,670 of any type of industry that CT would serve, 609 00:43:30,070 --> 00:43:32,570 that CT electronics that are applied to that industry. 610 00:43:32,890 --> 00:43:33,090 Okay. 611 00:43:33,090 --> 00:43:36,170 So that's kind of their take on it and their requests. 612 00:43:36,870 --> 00:43:43,770 I just didn't understand that one because I know usually it's like businesses and technology 613 00:43:43,770 --> 00:43:45,070 companies, et cetera. 614 00:43:45,210 --> 00:43:48,570 And I had never teachers going and I just wanted to clarify that. 615 00:43:48,830 --> 00:43:51,010 So I would, that was my last question. 616 00:43:51,230 --> 00:43:58,150 So if I understood to Jim just one more clarification, this is something like our electronics area is 617 00:43:58,150 --> 00:44:04,130 we're teaching in. We really could use a few more students in those. We need a little boost 618 00:44:04,130 --> 00:44:09,270 there, a little more instruction to get more students, but also once we get them, and we're 619 00:44:09,270 --> 00:44:11,430 doing some things to prepare for the workforce a little better. 620 00:44:12,850 --> 00:44:15,570 Yeah, and this show is where you see the marketing technology. 621 00:44:15,890 --> 00:44:24,050 I just said DCSD and I was confused because usually that's not one we've gone to in the past. 622 00:44:24,050 --> 00:44:28,150 and your space right now would move to approve all the trips. 623 00:44:30,030 --> 00:44:32,530 Anybody else have any other questions on any of the trips? 624 00:44:32,770 --> 00:44:33,070 I do. 625 00:44:33,590 --> 00:44:33,830 OK. 626 00:44:34,930 --> 00:44:41,350 The bottom one there with the UHNA, UHFFA. 627 00:44:42,790 --> 00:44:45,350 I feel like a year ago, we kind of got burned. 628 00:44:45,590 --> 00:44:48,910 Not from Union high school FFA, but one of the others 629 00:44:48,910 --> 00:44:50,550 because we didn't have an attendur area. 630 00:44:51,230 --> 00:44:53,110 And before I moved to approve that, 631 00:44:53,110 --> 00:44:57,470 want to see in a tenor area because we kind of got burned on that one with the 632 00:44:57,470 --> 00:44:58,770 Stay tuned on there. 633 00:45:00,210 --> 00:45:30,170 And then, like I said, nothing against, nothing against union, highest FFA. I'm a proud supporter of FFA. I'm a champion. But before I would approve it, I'd like to see a tinerary because we had a problem last year. And the rest of them were pretty straightforward. That one's hot. Would you feel okay about a contingent on the tinerary comes through? Okay. Just on. Absolutely. Absolutely. And I don't want to, I don't want to 634 00:45:30,170 --> 00:45:32,030 presentation, I just want to 635 00:45:32,030 --> 00:45:33,650 enter it. This is what we're 636 00:45:33,650 --> 00:45:35,130 going to be doing. And we don't 637 00:45:35,130 --> 00:45:36,870 end up with a casino in Las 638 00:45:36,870 --> 00:45:39,530 Vegas on a Sunday afternoon. 639 00:45:39,770 --> 00:45:42,930 That's Jim's true. So a casino, 640 00:45:42,930 --> 00:45:44,730 what's the Indian 641 00:45:44,730 --> 00:45:46,050 reservation up there? I don't 642 00:45:46,050 --> 00:45:48,690 call for all. But you know, 643 00:45:48,770 --> 00:45:49,870 saying, I'm just that's one 644 00:45:49,870 --> 00:45:51,470 that for me to be comfortable 645 00:45:51,470 --> 00:45:52,810 and okay, you know, I would 646 00:45:52,810 --> 00:45:54,010 like to see an engineering on 647 00:45:54,010 --> 00:45:54,970 that. And this one is over a 648 00:45:54,970 --> 00:45:56,930 Sunday. So, you know, and 649 00:45:56,930 --> 00:45:58,390 this I'm not just stuck on 650 00:45:58,390 --> 00:46:19,090 the Sundays, but it's in city on a Sunday in a bar. I am that okay yeah that's what I'm looking 651 00:46:19,090 --> 00:46:25,690 for. I don't want a presentation. That's what we're doing.

So this was one 808 00:56:59,830 --> 00:57:05,890 that Mr. Bruce Barker and I talked about a while ago. We've kind of been waiting to see some 809 00:57:05,890 --> 00:57:12,890 of the model policy and things that's come out there to help the guide. A lot of it also 810 00:57:12,890 --> 00:57:18,670 So it's just to update with the office of term practice and what we're doing with our 811 00:57:20,710 --> 00:57:24,330 conduct, behavior levels that we have in place throughout our district. 812 00:57:24,590 --> 00:57:25,370 We're on year three. 813 00:57:25,570 --> 00:57:26,350 They're working with them. 814 00:57:27,030 --> 00:57:30,890 And so we've gotten really, really better and better at that, I would say. 815 00:57:31,430 --> 00:57:38,830 So this helps put this aspect of the policy in line with what the rest of our things were. 816 00:57:38,830 --> 00:57:46,890 going against this, but it's not really love those things for you. They need to be superseded 817 00:57:46,890 --> 00:57:52,990 by what we're now doing and think is working better. That's the main reason for it. But 818 00:57:52,990 --> 00:57:59,550 some of the language in there as well just comes right from our other documents that we use 819 00:57:59,550 --> 00:58:04,450 like the conduct levels and teacher and principals are trying to decide to get a level three, 820 00:58:04,450 --> 00:58:07,730 for that language is incorporated in this policy. 821 00:58:09,310 --> 00:58:15,690 I only have one comment I think it looks great and this isn't about the wording or anything 822 00:58:15,690 --> 00:58:21,110 but I remember when I first started teaching a hundred years ago we had a couple teachers 823 00:58:21,110 --> 00:58:28,650 that would send five, six kids per hour in the office so I think this is great that teachers 824 00:58:28,650 --> 00:58:33,210 can remove a student they need to but I hope the principals are working with the teachers 825 00:58:33,210 --> 00:58:35,330 There's not to make this, I wrote this down. 826 00:58:35,690 --> 00:58:36,830 Not the first recourse. 827 00:58:37,030 --> 00:58:39,270 Let's try to work with the kid in the classroom first. 828 00:58:39,670 --> 00:58:41,810 But this is an option if needed, right? 829 00:58:42,350 --> 00:58:43,150 That's all I'm saying. 830 00:58:43,590 --> 00:58:45,850 And I agree 100% we need the option 831 00:58:45,850 --> 00:58:47,750 and I like that it fits our policy. 832 00:58:47,950 --> 00:58:50,270 I just, it drove me nuts to, you know, 833 00:58:50,350 --> 00:58:52,410 teachers sending six kids of an hour 834 00:58:53,110 --> 00:58:55,090 period to the office for something 835 00:58:55,090 --> 00:58:57,190 that could have been handled in class. 836 00:58:57,350 --> 00:58:59,790 And I know principals, that's, they have enough to do that. 837 00:58:59,790 --> 00:59:07,630 not out that many kids per hour to deal with and especially when it was petty stuff and they could have taken care of easily in class. 838 00:59:08,010 --> 00:59:11,530 I don't have a good point on that. I agree with that, the 100%. 839 00:59:11,530 --> 00:59:18,050 And I also think, you know, if we need, if that's a problem with the teachers, maybe they're, because they're training that we need. 840 00:59:18,850 --> 00:59:24,510 I don't know, but it's maybe some extra training to help them just take care of most probably right there. 841 00:59:24,510 --> 00:59:29,850 Hopefully they talk to the teacher and work with them, but I agree if that's a problem 842 00:59:29,850 --> 00:59:31,510 we should have something. 843 00:59:31,850 --> 00:59:34,750 This is an option, but it's not the first option. 844 00:59:34,910 --> 00:59:39,350 Let's try to deal with it in class first because that's, you're the primary person there's 845 00:59:39,350 --> 00:59:39,730 a teacher. 846 00:59:39,970 --> 00:59:41,850 You need to deal with it. 847 00:59:41,910 --> 00:59:45,390 You're trying to develop that relationship with that student and work with that student. 848 00:59:45,550 --> 00:59:51,090 If you're sending the office, you've taken away your power or your position as a teacher, 849 00:59:51,350 --> 00:59:51,570 right? 850 00:59:52,330 --> 00:59:52,530 Absolutely. 851 00:59:52,530 --> 00:59:59,670 and I agreed and yeah typically in that scenario and what we have been doing. 852 01:00:00,110 --> 01:00:29,890 And finally continue, of course, is working with that teacher individually. Training a lot of it is just on the spot and the administrator and advice giving, but also at a certain point, a certain level, pulling in some other people so like our secondary induction coach is a great resource to help with that. We specifically go through classroom management strategies and textbooks and all kinds of things that way. So yes, that's well said. It's something 853 01:00:29,890 --> 01:00:37,510 or we need to make sure they can remove a student that's distracting and so forth, but also 854 01:00:38,370 --> 01:00:44,430 the classroom management strategies to help them stay in class as much as possible and learn as well. 855 01:00:44,670 --> 01:00:46,330 So you can't teach them like that in class. 856 01:00:47,610 --> 01:00:51,570 So yeah, and it has been on our conduct levels cheat. 857 01:00:52,390 --> 01:00:55,530 We've got that built in now to their accountability grade. 858 01:00:55,530 --> 01:00:59,310 And so the conduct in class matters for that accountability grade. 859 01:00:59,490 --> 01:01:08,710 But a teacher cannot give a U accountability grade for the conduct on their own. 860 01:01:08,950 --> 01:01:11,550 That has to be in conjunction with the principal. 861 01:01:11,930 --> 01:01:15,930 So they're working to get their partners there, which I think helps that a lot. 862 01:01:16,690 --> 01:01:22,410 And also because after the court is over, if the student wants to remove that U, 863 01:01:22,410 --> 01:01:26,690 you, then the principals will want to work with them, so having them involved before it's 864 01:01:26,690 --> 01:01:28,990 even given helps that process a lot too. 865 01:01:29,130 --> 01:01:32,570 So I think that system has really been helpful here. 866 01:01:33,010 --> 01:01:33,170 Thank you. 867 01:01:34,110 --> 01:01:39,590 And to be honest, I have not heard, and they maybe just haven't talked to me about it, but 868 01:01:39,590 --> 01:01:46,010 I have not heard of that very much at all in our district as far as teachers sending students 869 01:01:46,010 --> 01:01:50,190 to the office over little penny things, you know, shove it in the pencil or whatever 870 01:01:50,190 --> 01:01:51,910 and all that's maybe used to hear about it. 871 01:01:52,230 --> 01:01:53,750 It's we've been doing really well there. 872 01:01:54,010 --> 01:01:55,650 All right, so this has been 100 years ago, 873 01:01:55,710 --> 01:01:56,570 and I first started teaching. 874 01:01:56,830 --> 01:01:58,950 And that teacher only gives you a last letter now 875 01:01:58,950 --> 01:02:00,110 and then we're going to do that. 876 01:02:00,110 --> 01:02:02,170 That's probably true, but it was also the teacher 877 01:02:02,170 --> 01:02:04,990 and that was her first year, and she was not 878 01:02:04,990 --> 01:02:07,610 we knew after that because that and there's 879 01:02:07,610 --> 01:02:08,730 some other issues as well. 880 01:02:10,330 --> 01:02:13,030 So long to support our teachers as much as possible, 881 01:02:13,290 --> 01:02:16,270 allow them that option, and also supporting when there's 882 01:02:16,270 --> 01:02:16,570 problem. 883 01:02:19,650 --> 01:02:25,790 Okay any other any feedback or anything before we bring that to you again next 884 01:02:25,790 --> 01:02:33,630 one.
