1
00:03:08,500 --> 00:03:11,080
All right, if I could get everybody's attention, please.

2
00:03:20,890 --> 00:03:26,450
Pastor Bruce Johnson, a peenid, first and as a rain church, to lead us at our invocation.

3
00:03:26,890 --> 00:03:27,830
That's it.

4
00:03:28,050 --> 00:03:29,650
And let's pray together this evening.

5
00:03:29,950 --> 00:03:32,690
Our Heavenly Father, we come to you this evening.

6
00:03:34,310 --> 00:03:41,590
And we are very aware that you are the giver of all good things, and that every blessing comes from you.

7
00:03:42,330 --> 00:03:48,950
It's a Lord to not pray for Dr. Floyd in his administration, or we pray for every teacher,

8
00:03:49,230 --> 00:03:55,590
every support member that makes ended public schools a great school system, and we ask

9
00:03:55,590 --> 00:03:57,510
that you would bless them abundantly.

10
00:03:59,170 --> 00:04:05,030
Father's this board meets this evening, may they seek your wisdom and your guidance, your

11
00:04:05,030 --> 00:04:06,530
courage and your strength.

12
00:04:07,310 --> 00:04:13,930
Father, help them to make wise decisions for the good of every person in this school district.

13
00:04:14,870 --> 00:04:22,430
Give them insight to lead with integrity that their decisions will reflect what is right and good.

14
00:04:23,270 --> 00:04:31,450
And Lord grant them the humility to always seek your will and all that they do and say,

15
00:04:31,450 --> 00:04:37,050
and we pray all these things in the name of Jesus. Amen.

16
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:40,040
Thank you, appreciate you, Kevin.

17
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,360
If I could have heard of one stand for the flags of Luke, please.

18
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,040
And let the record show that every board member is present,

19
00:05:16,260 --> 00:05:17,640
excluding Colin Avernatic,

20
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,460
which leads us to...

21
00:05:21,460 --> 00:05:24,760
We had no audience of visitors, which leads us to the superintendent's report.

22
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:26,660
All right. Thank you, sir.

23
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,080
First item up under Super Chancellor Ford is.

24
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:37,920
I shared with you last month that we would invite the chairs of each of our seven categories

25
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:45,880
in our strategic plan to come and share a brief word with us about what their plans, their

26
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:53,320
committees plans are for the second five years of our strategic plan. We believe it or not five

27
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:58,100
years has passed already and now we're getting ready for our next five years of our strategic plan

28
00:05:58,100 --> 00:06:04,960
2020 to 2025. So first up is facilities and the chairs of that committee or

29
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:10,460
myself and Dr. Robinson and Ron Garrison. So Dr. Robinson is going to say brief word about

30
00:06:10,460 --> 00:06:17,480
that committee. Okay, let's just start off with. We're going to talk about kind of where we put

31
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:23,400
a lot of money. If facilities and a lot of that money has come in, foreign services, playing services,

32
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:28,340
those kind of things. And so we have to come up with a stabilization plan for replacing those

33
00:06:28,340 --> 00:06:33,040
surfaces just like we did the turf this past year. And so that's going to be the beginning

34
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:38,100
of that plan is how can we maintain a budget that's going to allow us to fit money away. And

35
00:06:38,100 --> 00:06:43,680
then when we get down the road 5, 10 years from now that we have the money in the bank ready to refurbish

36
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:49,500
and take care of those particular surfaces and areas that we have. We also want to look at going

37
00:06:49,500 --> 00:06:54,900
forward, and really with facilities, this might be a five-year plan, but it's really all things

38
00:06:54,900 --> 00:06:58,580
that we need to be doing year and year out looking at these things.

39
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:04,280
The next goal is to maintain new and existing facilities with specific attention to the

40
00:07:04,280 --> 00:07:05,300
upkeep and maintenance.

41
00:07:06,020 --> 00:07:10,660
So we pretty well have touched in every facility with our bond funds over the last 10 years,

42
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,980
and so how do we keep those facilities looking like the day construction ended 10 years

43
00:07:14,980 --> 00:07:15,380
from now?

44
00:07:15,380 --> 00:07:23,240
So that's kind of the, we've actually already kind of implemented part of that plan, but how do we do that in a long run to a budget and an implementation process.

45
00:07:24,020 --> 00:07:27,060
And then enhanced existing facilities to match up grace to other facilities.

46
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,460
And that kind of goes along with, with the strength.

47
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:59,860
Reggie, there are some buildings that when that certain principles there, they ask for a certain upgrade and say to a library. Well, another campus may not have had that library upgrade at that point in time. So how do we bring those libraries all up to the same standard along with making sure they're budgeted right and making sure that that's what that campus needs. And that's just one example of many that we could apply out there. And really, that's kind of a year, three goal of where we had in those facilities. Another example would be we have some elementary's that they didn't get a new gym floor in the elementary.

48
00:07:59,860 --> 00:08:01,160
and they still have the tile forward.

49
00:08:01,540 --> 00:08:04,800
And so how do we implement that and get that taken care of and we're really looking at some

50
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,500
of that for next year, not just for year 3 down the road.

51
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,940
And then we need to look at going forward, if we're not having substantial student growth,

52
00:08:13,260 --> 00:08:17,540
how can we look at modifying our facilities to furniture and classroom development rather

53
00:08:17,540 --> 00:08:18,860
than just adding square footage?

54
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,980
What type of furniture, what type of learning devices are needed that would enhance the learning

55
00:08:23,980 --> 00:08:24,840
environment for students?

56
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,480
And I think we weren't a pretty valuable lesson in this and learning that education can

57
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,200
evolve and it can change very quickly. So how do we keep up with that and how do we plan

58
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:37,960
to integrate that into our system? And then finally, within the year 5, we definitely need

59
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:42,900
to be reviewing and examining our existing facility needs and those structures, is it time

60
00:08:42,900 --> 00:08:47,480
to pass another bond issue? Is it time to add existing square footage? Where do we really need

61
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:52,940
to go? And the next 5 years are we ahead or we behind? And those things can be done through

62
00:08:52,940 --> 00:08:57,840
demographic studies, different implementations and programming of the valuation. So that's

63
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,940
of the five-year goal five-year plan for facilities. Does anybody have any questions?

64
00:09:04,750 --> 00:09:09,570
All right, that's a good overview. Brief overview, I appreciate that. We'll try to

65
00:09:09,570 --> 00:09:13,730
expedite the rest of them that same way and just kind of hit the broad strokes, obviously,

66
00:09:14,510 --> 00:09:20,070
and any committee work. There's a whole lot of my new share that goes into that, but just wanted

67
00:09:20,070 --> 00:09:26,310
the chairpersons to kind of give the board members a broad overview tonight. So, thanks, Sam.

68
00:09:26,310 --> 00:09:31,030
And our next up is our character development goal.

69
00:09:31,230 --> 00:09:35,030
And that's chaired by John Mitchell and Rob Kappas and Tony Roe.

70
00:09:36,470 --> 00:09:38,690
And let's say John is still out of town.

71
00:09:38,750 --> 00:09:40,470
So Rob is going to cover that force.

72
00:09:40,810 --> 00:09:41,150
Thank you, Rob.

73
00:09:42,310 --> 00:09:42,790
Good evening, Owen.

74
00:09:44,970 --> 00:09:46,630
So with character development,

75
00:09:46,850 --> 00:09:50,370
we thought this is more of a developing a culture within the school.

76
00:09:50,930 --> 00:09:53,890
And so I think we see on year one goal,

77
00:09:53,890 --> 00:10:01,630
It says, grow the culture of great expectations, you know, we can implement a program and we get the

78
00:10:01,630 --> 00:10:07,250
gist of it the first year or two, but it takes several years to really develop that as a true

79
00:10:07,250 --> 00:10:12,630
culture within the school. And then when you have students, especially at the elementary level,

80
00:10:13,390 --> 00:10:17,990
one, three, immersed in that culture for several years, once they graduate and move on to the next

81
00:10:17,990 --> 00:10:23,330
level at the middle school, that culturally doesn't have to be developed, because it's

82
00:10:23,330 --> 00:10:27,370
already developed at elementary school, it's just for the reinforced, and then so

83
00:10:27,370 --> 00:10:32,330
on at the high school, not that they're not working out at the high schools and middle

84
00:10:32,330 --> 00:10:32,690
schools.

85
00:10:33,290 --> 00:10:40,110
But we're looking for this to really develop in bed within their own personalities, not just

86
00:10:40,110 --> 00:10:45,530
something that we're doing, it's just something they are, it's not a rule to who we are.

87
00:10:45,530 --> 00:10:52,570
So I think you can see as we progress through year one, two, three, and four, we're expanding

88
00:10:52,570 --> 00:10:59,710
that from transitional, supergressive to eventually becoming model schools within year four.

89
00:11:00,510 --> 00:11:04,610
And obviously our goal is to be a model district within this five-year-time trend.

90
00:11:04,890 --> 00:11:11,110
And then year five, maintain that model district, and then also in the meantime expand our mentoring

91
00:11:11,110 --> 00:11:17,830
program to help develop and nurture those culture and character things we're looking for.

92
00:11:18,130 --> 00:11:23,690
Yeah, we all know that there's a lot more to education than just the three ours and obviously

93
00:11:23,690 --> 00:11:33,010
we want to be developing good citizens and this character development goal strategy and

94
00:11:33,670 --> 00:11:39,550
the great expectations program and our desire to become a model district of great

95
00:11:39,550 --> 00:11:45,630
expectations I think is where they go and this group is kind of outlined how we're going to get there.

96
00:11:46,090 --> 00:11:47,610
So any questions for Rob?

97
00:11:49,780 --> 00:11:50,000
Thank you.

98
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:50,260
All right.

99
00:11:50,380 --> 00:11:50,920
Thank you, sir.

100
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:56,300
Our third goal in our strategic plan is assessment and accountability.

101
00:11:57,300 --> 00:12:01,700
And that's shared by Pauli Maxwell, Jennifer Patterson and Sherry Henry.

102
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,000
Sherry is going to lead that discussion for us tonight.

103
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:09,400
Good evening.

104
00:12:10,620 --> 00:12:16,220
This is assessment and accountability, and if you look, we're starting with objective one there,

105
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:22,680
and it talks about identifying and implementing essential district assessments that align with our curriculum.

106
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:28,900
One of the things we're working on right now is, as we get new curriculum or curriculum changes,

107
00:12:29,340 --> 00:12:33,600
we need to make sure that our assessments align with what we're doing in the classroom.

108
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:42,600
And so this is one of the things we're working on there as we go through that one of the things we do is develop a district testing calendar every year

109
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:52,000
So that everybody is on the same page at all the elementary schools all the middle schools the high school all in the same page with their assessments and what we're doing as far as that goes

110
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:53,740
As we go on down

111
00:12:53,740 --> 00:13:00,280
We will evaluate the success of differentiated learners in terms of accountability assessments and attendance data

112
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:07,260
So that's looking at different groups of students and whether we're looking at ethnicity or

113
00:13:07,260 --> 00:13:12,820
different things like that and making sure that we're developing in all those areas as far

114
00:13:12,820 --> 00:13:15,340
as our assessments and being accountable go.

115
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:20,420
Organizing conduct ongoing teacher training on interpreting, explaining, and effectively utilizing

116
00:13:20,420 --> 00:13:21,400
student data.

117
00:13:21,860 --> 00:13:29,160
As we're looking at assessments, teachers have to be able to analyze those sometimes they

118
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:35,420
need professional development on what the best way is to analyze that and then how to move forward

119
00:13:35,420 --> 00:13:38,480
from the information they get from those assessments.

120
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:44,700
Track attendance for chronic absenteeism purposes, chronic absenteeism is something that's

121
00:13:44,700 --> 00:13:51,100
on our state report card, not this year, but we'll be again as soon as we get to that point.

122
00:13:51,140 --> 00:13:57,240
And so this is something that we need to make sure we're all on board with and have procedures

123
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:01,360
there's in place for how we track students and how we follow up with that.

124
00:14:02,020 --> 00:14:06,240
And then the last one is establishing criteria for presenting the state of the district

125
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,820
report and celebrating all peanut public school programs.

126
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:16,180
This is something that we've started and we want to continue emphasizing our non-academic

127
00:14:16,180 --> 00:14:22,200
programs and how many great things we have going on in peanut public schools that we can

128
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,200
put a document out every year that highlights those for the community to work with.

129
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,480
All right, any questions for her, Sherry?

130
00:14:31,140 --> 00:14:31,600
Thank you.

131
00:14:33,060 --> 00:14:36,780
Next goal in our strategic plan is curriculum and instruction.

132
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,820
And that is chaired by Jeff Herbal, Kristen Jones and Roy Bartnik.

133
00:14:41,380 --> 00:14:44,280
And Kristen Jones is going to lead that force tonight.

134
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:46,440
Good evening.

135
00:14:47,300 --> 00:14:50,700
We have six objectives that we worked through

136
00:14:50,700 --> 00:14:54,380
would begin talking about relationships with kids who want to make sure that we have solid

137
00:14:54,380 --> 00:14:59,580
relationships with students and with families through enhanced digital communication

138
00:14:59,580 --> 00:14:59,960
making

139
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:15,580
Sure, parents know, particularly as we come out of the phase we've been in, making sure parents know how to communicate digitally and what their options are there, increasing student active participation in the classroom, in terms of academics, making sure students are engaged in those lessons.

140
00:15:15,580 --> 00:15:21,980
and our Hope Center trauma-informed initiative falls under here as well, the Hope Rising Program

141
00:15:21,980 --> 00:15:28,000
with Dr. Chen Helman and Polymax. Well, falls under that. Two and three really kind

142
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:35,040
of go together making sure that we are providing standards-based rigorous curriculum for students,

143
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:40,360
making sure teachers understand how to use the curriculum tools that we're providing for them

144
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:46,000
in the classroom and doing that in a blended way, ensuring that we're creating global

145
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:51,440
citizens and that they understand the digital tools, that teachers understand the digital

146
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:57,340
tools available to them, as well as the curriculum, putting digital first in the curriculum

147
00:15:57,340 --> 00:16:03,380
that we provide. Our e-program is also included. They're under objective three.

148
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:07,900
Objective

149
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:14,980
in face-to-face opportunities, bringing in guest speakers and local field trips and things,

150
00:16:15,220 --> 00:16:21,680
but also taking advantage of virtual opportunities to Skype scientists and things of that

151
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,020
nature by getting beyond the walls of our classrooms and giving kids of some global

152
00:16:25,020 --> 00:16:32,460
perspective. Many of our STEAM initiatives are built in under objective 4. Objective 5 is

153
00:16:32,460 --> 00:16:37,060
about making sure that we're reaching all of our learners, our diverse populations, particular

154
00:16:37,060 --> 00:16:44,120
students who have unique needs in terms of being English learners or needing some

155
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,500
response to intervention in the classroom. So all of those will be included

156
00:16:48,500 --> 00:16:54,120
there and then sixth objective really focusing on literacy and math. There are

157
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:58,960
some literacy things that we started in the last school year in terms of

158
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:04,140
curriculum and professional development and we'll continue those going forward.

159
00:17:05,580 --> 00:17:09,320
Thank you, Chris, and any questions for Chris and?

160
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,000
Yes, sir.

161
00:17:13,020 --> 00:17:17,860
On objective four, nagging in real detail.

162
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:22,120
I just want to know, would it be all right

163
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:29,100
when the year starts and you begin this if I come alongside you

164
00:17:29,100 --> 00:17:30,360
and look over your shoulder?

165
00:17:30,940 --> 00:17:31,880
Sure thing, absolutely.

166
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:38,520
Yeah, I will make sure that everyone has a purpose that everyone knows what we're up to and you have an opportunity to come be at the table.

167
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:39,440
We'd like to have you.

168
00:17:39,580 --> 00:17:40,520
Thank you very much.

169
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:41,620
Yes, sir.

170
00:17:42,380 --> 00:17:42,620
All right.

171
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:43,480
Thank you, Miss Jones.

172
00:17:45,940 --> 00:17:52,680
Our next category of goals in our strategic plan deals with personnel and professional development.

173
00:17:53,300 --> 00:17:58,360
And that is chaired by Randy Raider and has been Doug Stafford in David McKune.

174
00:17:58,360 --> 00:18:05,400
So now we'll be alongside Randy will be Dudley Darrow, and we'll probably add Melissa Gratic,

175
00:18:06,020 --> 00:18:08,480
David's replacement on that committee as well, Randy.

176
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:16,240
Our goal, we have one overall goal with four major objectives, and we will commit our time and

177
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:20,320
resources to continue its opportunities for a professional growth, the development and

178
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:26,120
retention of high, highly qualified teachers, and to focus into the focus of school safety

179
00:18:26,120 --> 00:18:31,180
security training opportunities for staff and students. Our first objective underneath that

180
00:18:31,180 --> 00:18:35,660
is to, and it's kind of lengthy, but there's a lot of things to cover when you talk about

181
00:18:35,660 --> 00:18:40,240
curriculum, professional development, but it's to build staff capacity in the areas of standard

182
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:45,260
alignment, student engagement, enrichment activities, assessment, blended learning, technology

183
00:18:45,260 --> 00:18:50,240
integration, response intervention, character education, diverse populations, and childhood

184
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:55,360
trauma. So basically, everything you've heard talked about earlier, there's going to take

185
00:18:55,360 --> 00:18:57,000
some kind of level of professional development.

186
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:03,100
And so we will kind of do the triage each year and figure out what we need to focus on and make

187
00:19:03,100 --> 00:19:03,820
sure that that happens.

188
00:19:03,860 --> 00:19:09,340
Our second objective is to continue to improve support for our new alternatively trained and

189
00:19:09,340 --> 00:19:10,840
or emergency certified teachers.

190
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,840
We know if we don't have that support in place, we're going to lose teachers within about

191
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,720
the first five years according to research.

192
00:19:16,980 --> 00:19:20,360
And so we put a lot into finding our teachers.

193
00:19:20,360 --> 00:19:22,100
We want to make sure that we help them grow.

194
00:19:22,100 --> 00:19:33,880
So we do have a program that's called the Steps Mentoring that is actually a model for the state but we also know that that's one of those things we need to just continue to look at and improve each year.

195
00:19:34,420 --> 00:19:45,680
Objective three is to strive to meet all of the accreditation standards for school staffing at all levels areas of special focus or library media specialist counselors and classroom teachers to meet class size recommendations.

196
00:19:46,140 --> 00:19:51,040
We know we need to have the right people in the right places, and we want to make sure we do that.

197
00:19:51,140 --> 00:19:55,520
And in objective four, provide ongoing and annual school safety training.

198
00:19:55,860 --> 00:19:58,620
We also know that that's something that's always changing.

199
00:19:59,180 --> 00:20:02,960
And we want to make sure that our staff is our trained and with our police force.

200
00:20:03,140 --> 00:20:10,160
We want to make sure that their trained is well and that they are checking on the plans that we have in place to make sure those are sufficient.

201
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:18,200
And I think really a lot more than just the police officer training there is, obviously,

202
00:20:19,100 --> 00:20:19,840
with the coronavirus.

203
00:20:21,620 --> 00:20:29,240
Part of that safety training deals with our nurses and all of our actual curricular

204
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,980
activities and the precautions we're going to have to take and that type of thing as well.

205
00:20:32,980 --> 00:20:37,780
So a lot more goes into that safety issue

206
00:20:37,780 --> 00:20:40,360
than seems like has in the past.

207
00:20:40,980 --> 00:20:41,700
Questions for Randy?

208
00:20:42,740 --> 00:20:43,540
I do have a question.

209
00:20:46,140 --> 00:20:48,700
So talking about, because you're doing training, obviously,

210
00:20:49,220 --> 00:20:52,540
and we can't ignore what's going on in the world right now.

211
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,500
For all of the staff, all of the teachers and everything,

212
00:20:56,620 --> 00:21:00,280
is there any type of training for implicit bias

213
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,660
systemmatic racism and those types of topics have we never done that in the past and

214
00:21:04,660 --> 00:21:06,840
that's something we could look for in the future.

215
00:21:07,300 --> 00:21:11,220
We've done some of it in the past, I mean obviously it's it's a topic that we need to

216
00:21:11,220 --> 00:21:14,940
continue to talk about and it will be a point of focus as well.

217
00:21:15,380 --> 00:21:21,360
We are going to make sure that our teachers understand biases and with that coming up.

218
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:28,380
Part of the plan was written before some of the things have happened but as part of our interactions

219
00:21:28,380 --> 00:21:33,760
with the NAACP and over the last couple of years we've added some of that training and teachers

220
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,660
always have access to that as well.

221
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:40,060
Yeah, a couple of different platforms that we can give that to teachers in.

222
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:46,020
Just to be completely transparent and clear, I know that of all of the people in the world teachers

223
00:21:46,020 --> 00:21:51,400
are usually the best because these are their babies and these are their kids, but in light of

224
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:56,240
everything that's happened, I considered myself to be a very open person. I have African-American

225
00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:02,620
family and I realized how much racism I have had in me and how much white supremacy is affected

226
00:22:02,620 --> 00:22:08,820
me and so I know even our best teachers with the best intentions with their babies that

227
00:22:08,820 --> 00:22:14,360
they love could still use extra training and extra introspection to make sure that we're doing

228
00:22:14,360 --> 00:22:21,260
the best we can for all of our students. That communication piece is always the biggest piece and

229
00:22:21,260 --> 00:22:24,880
we have to talk about it. Thank you sir.

230
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,960
And then our sixth goal of seven is

231
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:40,000
It's an extra critical of opportunities and that's chaired by Rob Mills and our athletic director, Billy Tips and Jamie Jarnigan and Rob is going to lead us through this one.

232
00:22:40,980 --> 00:22:43,500
Good evening, guys. Good to see you guys. Good to be around people.

233
00:22:43,900 --> 00:22:44,720
Yeah, really.

234
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,280
Rob, would you full the microphone up a little bit, please?

235
00:22:49,580 --> 00:22:52,060
Okay. Just up a little bit.

236
00:22:52,060 --> 00:22:53,060
It says do not touch.

237
00:22:53,060 --> 00:22:55,740
It says do not touch, but okay, we'll see, there you go.

238
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:56,820
Sorry about that.

239
00:22:56,900 --> 00:22:57,560
That's okay.

240
00:22:59,020 --> 00:23:03,760
We'll let him touch it, if Wellogio says touch it, that's right, that's right.

241
00:23:04,100 --> 00:23:08,180
Is that better?

242
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:08,620
Yep.

243
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,400
So we are at a goal number six, which is in rich opportunities.

244
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:19,360
And just enriching students experiences through our extracurricular activities, which is

245
00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:25,160
something that I think all of us know is very vital to our school.

246
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:29,060
And I know a lot of people are worried about it right now,

247
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,620
about those extra students are worried about those extra curricular activities going forward

248
00:23:32,620 --> 00:23:33,500
as a mind.

249
00:23:34,180 --> 00:23:37,600
But just coming together with our team, we've got four objectives.

250
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:42,400
Number one, we really want to get a good grasp of everything that's going on

251
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:43,940
and the participation that's going on.

252
00:23:44,020 --> 00:23:47,000
So we want to track the participation in extra curricular activities

253
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,320
in our secondary and elementary sites.

254
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,500
It's going to be real simple to do it at the secondary because with the addition

255
00:23:53,500 --> 00:23:57,100
of our sports in the school day, everything should be in power school and we can track it,

256
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,280
we'll have to do a little more work at the elementary, as some of those clubs don't happen

257
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:06,180
during the school day, but we feel like we can get a good grasp of what our students are wanting

258
00:24:06,180 --> 00:24:11,300
and needing just by how many are participating. Number two, we would like to communicate with all

259
00:24:11,300 --> 00:24:15,380
our stakeholders on student interest and needs and enrichment and extracurricular activities,

260
00:24:15,420 --> 00:24:20,940
and we want to do that by administering a survey, and we feel like we've added a lot of things,

261
00:24:20,940 --> 00:24:24,000
And so we want to do that in year two as Minister of the Survey.

262
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,320
And then, number three, we would like to analyze the list

263
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,260
of available programs and make changes to increase participation.

264
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,520
So we feel like if we do number one and we are tracking

265
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,260
and then we communicate with all stakeholders

266
00:24:36,260 --> 00:24:40,140
that will give our committee a good amount of information

267
00:24:40,140 --> 00:24:42,620
in order to make recommendations and changes.

268
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:47,320
And so we want to do that in year two.

269
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,840
And then four, we want to increase participation

270
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,240
in extra curricular activities, and the main way we want to do that is to communication.

271
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:59,620
Because I know I'm a principal at Waller, but I don't always know what's everything

272
00:24:59,620 --> 00:25:01,760
that's going on and all the other schools.

273
00:25:03,060 --> 00:25:06,480
And, you know, even some of my feeder schools sometimes I find out about these awesome programs

274
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,280
that I didn't know about, and so on going communication.

275
00:25:09,540 --> 00:25:15,700
And we feel like that we can do that in year two, and then if you'll look on year five,

276
00:25:15,700 --> 00:25:20,260
If we would like to administer another survey and be with stakeholders again, because then

277
00:25:20,260 --> 00:25:27,280
that would give the next group of strategic planning good information to start with.

278
00:25:28,340 --> 00:25:28,440
So.

279
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:29,440
All right.

280
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,840
Very good questions for Rob.

281
00:25:34,300 --> 00:25:34,700
Thank you.

282
00:25:35,020 --> 00:25:35,720
Appreciate it.

283
00:25:35,860 --> 00:25:41,340
And then our last goal category and our strategic plan for the next five years is Community

284
00:25:41,340 --> 00:25:42,040
Partnership.

285
00:25:42,700 --> 00:25:47,700
And that is chaired by Jane Johnson, Jennifer Fields and Chris Smith and Jane

286
00:25:47,700 --> 00:25:49,720
going to lead us through this last one.

287
00:25:50,020 --> 00:25:56,360
In our community and parent relationships, we developed five objectives that we feel like

288
00:25:56,360 --> 00:25:59,940
we're off to a really good start with the district, but we want to make sure that we

289
00:25:59,940 --> 00:26:02,240
continue to focus on them and expand them.

290
00:26:02,820 --> 00:26:07,620
And of course, the first objective is communicating with and engaging all stakeholders.

291
00:26:08,340 --> 00:26:12,960
And of course, as part of our committee's job, it's our responsibility to communicate the

292
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:18,840
for Rob's committee and the character development and all those other committees and the good work that they're doing.

293
00:26:19,020 --> 00:26:22,500
So we want to be sure that we continue with that and our diverse cultures.

294
00:26:23,380 --> 00:26:27,500
We have Jennifer Fields on our committee and I know she's very active with the Marshallese.

295
00:26:27,860 --> 00:26:34,960
So we want to be sure that we continue to communicate with all members of the community that we serve.

296
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,280
Objective two, parental education.

297
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:55,300
We want to include parents in parent universities, and I know that there's some talk about doing some parent universities at the beginning of August so that we can inform parents about the distance learning and those kinds of things so that they can be more actively involved in their students learning.

298
00:26:55,300 --> 00:27:01,380
So, parental education, objective three community partnerships we want to maintain and continue

299
00:27:01,380 --> 00:27:08,180
to build those with businesses in our community, through our classrooms and district

300
00:27:08,180 --> 00:27:14,540
wide, and focus on our mentoring programs, and just getting anybody and everybody who can

301
00:27:14,540 --> 00:27:20,060
be involved. Objective four, continuing to elevate our image, we have our new branding,

302
00:27:20,060 --> 00:27:24,360
And we want to be sure that everybody knows that there are future

303
00:27:24,360 --> 00:27:27,280
pace or a Plainsman, and where are shirts.

304
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:32,100
So we've been meeting and talking with a student's store and

305
00:27:32,100 --> 00:27:34,960
different ways that we can elevate our images through that.

306
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,880
We want to continue to brag with our Plainsman points of pride and that

307
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:39,500
publication.

308
00:27:39,900 --> 00:27:43,980
We want to get the info out to realtors so that they know the great things

309
00:27:43,980 --> 00:27:48,580
that Enode are doing so that they will encourage home buyers in our community.

310
00:27:48,580 --> 00:28:05,800
And also then communicating safety protocols and all those kinds of things that we're working on for our district and then objective five that parental engagement always such an important piece to get our parents involved in their students learning and in their students in their schools.

311
00:28:06,460 --> 00:28:10,880
So those were our five objectives that we want to work on for the next five years.

312
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:12,380
Okay, questions for Jane.

313
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,640
In your five goals,

314
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,460
not this parental engagement,

315
00:28:23,460 --> 00:28:25,400
what is your upside?

316
00:28:25,940 --> 00:28:30,980
What is your strongest tool to use in this step?

317
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:33,460
Well, booster clubs,

318
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,500
PTAs, volunteers,

319
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,660
just getting anybody who wants to come

320
00:28:39,660 --> 00:28:42,960
and help in our schools, get them involved in the schools

321
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:49,120
and get those parents to come to those parent teacher conferences and all those kinds of things.

322
00:28:49,820 --> 00:28:54,240
So I'm sure that principals will have some good ideas too as to ways that we can help their individual

323
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:54,940
sites.

324
00:28:55,980 --> 00:28:56,800
Thank you.

325
00:28:56,860 --> 00:28:57,020
Thank you.

326
00:28:57,020 --> 00:28:58,220
You're welcome.

327
00:28:59,100 --> 00:28:59,340
Anybody else?

328
00:29:00,180 --> 00:29:06,580
Thank you, Ms. Jane, and I do want to say a word of thanks to all of the somebody else.

329
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,860
I want to say a word of thanks to all of the committee chairs and all the folks that helped

330
00:29:10,860 --> 00:29:22,500
on those committees as well. It is a big effort to try to reach seven broad goals that

331
00:29:23,340 --> 00:29:29,260
are included in our strategic plan. I think we have made some tremendous strides in our

332
00:29:29,260 --> 00:29:35,800
first five years of the strategic plan and I appreciate everyone's effort to develop our plans

333
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:42,360
for the next five years moving forward and those are some very lofty goals, but I have no doubt

334
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:43,240
that we can reach those.

335
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:49,220
So thank you to everyone involved and I appreciate you all coming tonight if in fact you

336
00:29:49,220 --> 00:29:52,640
want to stay for the entirety of the meeting you were more than welcome to do that if you

337
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,420
want to cut out, now would be a good time to do that.

338
00:29:55,580 --> 00:29:56,240
Thank you very much.

339
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:13,540
Oh, I'm sorry, I believe that is the, let's see here. I think that is all of this over tennis report.

340
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,840
Okay. So I had to wait a minute, I'm sorry. No, I'm on beat.

341
00:30:18,260 --> 00:30:22,820
Yeah. No, that can't be. It can't be that short, right? There's no possible way.

342
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:28,880
Yeah, these people were about to throw up here. There is no possible way, that's short.

343
00:30:29,420 --> 00:30:33,160
No, that was my bad. Yeah, no going back now, right?

344
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:40,200
Okay. All right. B. This is also part. We have several parts of the Super Tenant Support

345
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:45,320
tonight. I forgot we had several bullets. The second bullet is discussion in possible

346
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:54,420
action to approve board resolution number 656 stating steadfast opposition to racism and

347
00:30:54,420 --> 00:31:00,000
affirming commitment to an inclusive learning environment that values all individuals. Obviously,

348
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,420
coming back to what Amanda said earlier.

349
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:07,720
We don't generally have a lot of action items under the Superintendent's report, but I wanted

350
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:14,840
to make this a recommendation for an approval of an action tonight, and I want to read

351
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:20,100
into the record this resolution, condemning racism and affirming the district's commitment

352
00:31:20,100 --> 00:31:22,720
to an inclusive school environment for all.

353
00:31:22,980 --> 00:31:29,820
And it reads as follows, whereas members of the Indian Board of Education as well as the

354
00:31:29,820 --> 00:31:35,000
by recent events that demonstrate the prejudice and injustice that persists in our country.

355
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:42,700
And whereas racism and hate have no place in our schools or our society and we must protect the constitutional rise of every person

356
00:31:42,700 --> 00:31:44,840
who lives, works and learns in our community.

357
00:31:45,540 --> 00:31:53,620
And whereas we cannot be silent, we urgently must act to stop the racial injustice that harms and anguishes black people

358
00:31:53,620 --> 00:32:00,680
who are our family, friends, neighbors, students, staff members and fellow Americans, and whereas

359
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:07,260
we must listen. Those who have endured discrimination and intolerance deserve to be heard as they

360
00:32:07,260 --> 00:32:11,840
share the stories and truth about their experiences and feelings, and we must seek with great

361
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:19,080
empathy to understand their challenges and their pain. And whereas we must learn, it is time to engage

362
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:26,380
our community in meaningful and honest conversation about racial inequality to build alliances

363
00:32:26,380 --> 00:32:32,560
with those committed to justice for all and work together to support our shared conviction

364
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:39,860
that racism must end. And whereas we must lead, each of us individually and collectively

365
00:32:39,860 --> 00:32:46,160
is responsible for creating a nurturing and anti-racist learning environment where every child

366
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:50,800
is respected and valued for who they are regardless of their skin color.

367
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:58,320
We must actively acknowledge, address, and prevent racial bias that occurs as a result

368
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:04,320
of district policies, practices, and actions, and whereas we must do better.

369
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:12,440
Our district can be and will be a sanctuary of safety in our community and a beacon of

370
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:19,600
for the world as we build and strengthen trust with those we serve and we model the acceptance

371
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:26,320
of all people. And then the resolution ends by stating now therefore be a resolve that we

372
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:33,500
members of the Enit Board of Education stand steadfast in our commitment to foster and inclusive

373
00:33:33,500 --> 00:33:39,180
educational environment where every student teacher or support professional parent and community

374
00:33:39,180 --> 00:33:45,340
member is treated with dignity and respect, as well as our commitment to continue fighting

375
00:33:45,340 --> 00:33:50,860
for racial justice and human and civil rights for all in upon approval.

376
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:56,220
It takes the Board President's signature and date and says approved by the Inner Board

377
00:33:56,220 --> 00:33:59,240
Education 15th day of June 2020.

378
00:33:59,980 --> 00:34:05,680
So before I make that recommendation for approval, I did want to add that this fall is in

379
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:12,240
with some of my comments that shared at the June 4th Town Hall meeting at the

380
00:34:12,240 --> 00:34:20,440
Strahd Center, back on June 4th, and what I try to share that not is that a

381
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:27,800
feel that it is incumbent upon the school district to lead in all these efforts that

382
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:34,340
are just verbalized by leading system-wide efforts that require us to ensure that

383
00:34:34,340 --> 00:34:40,760
cultural responsiveness permeates through all levels of our district from teaching and learning

384
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:45,940
to buses and buildings to all levels of professional development and community engagement.

385
00:34:46,380 --> 00:34:50,900
And obviously that is going to take a lot of time effort and energy on our part.

386
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:56,800
But obviously this is a big issue that warrants a lot of time effort and energy.

387
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:02,600
So having said all that, Mr. President, I would recommend approval of this resolution

388
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:09,660
266 condemning race system and affirming the district's commitment to an inclusive school environment for all do I have a motion

389
00:35:11,740 --> 00:35:14,260
motion by Frank second second by Tory

390
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:16,440
Any discussion

391
00:35:17,300 --> 00:35:18,920
All those in favor

392
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:20,440
Any opposed

393
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:27,700
The motion carries. All right. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. I'm out that texture signature and date. Please

394
00:35:28,300 --> 00:35:31,580
Next item in my Serpentine report is

395
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:40,400
To let you know that we have been working diligently on our fall reopening plans given the

396
00:35:41,220 --> 00:35:51,600
whole corona thing and Randy is going to say a word about the elementary efforts thus

397
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:59,140
far, but they still have a lot of work to do before we are ready with a finalized plan

398
00:35:59,140 --> 00:36:01,040
to recommend to the board in July.

399
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,540
And then Dudley's had a graduation on the brain.

400
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,200
So once he gets past this week, he'll be able to work

401
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,780
a little more diligently with the secondary folks

402
00:36:10,780 --> 00:36:13,340
to work on the secondary piece of that.

403
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,660
But board members, you have a one-pager in your packet

404
00:36:17,660 --> 00:36:22,340
that says draft elementary learning plan for 2020 and 2021.

405
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,580
So Randy, can you touch on the highlights of this, please?

406
00:36:26,380 --> 00:36:30,260
Well, first off, I want to say a huge thank you to all the people that I work with.

407
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,940
I'm not smart enough to figure all of this out myself.

408
00:36:33,260 --> 00:36:35,260
Chris and Jones is a huge help.

409
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,580
We have administrators help and we have teachers helping.

410
00:36:37,820 --> 00:36:42,920
We have instructional coaches, but about three weeks ago we came together as a group and just

411
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:47,960
kind of did a brain dump on everything that we thought might be an issue and I know we didn't

412
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:54,760
cover everything, but we started down that process and we basically eliminated some things that

413
00:36:54,760 --> 00:37:01,820
we're just going to be able to do. One thing that is obvious is we do need to have a completely virtual plan.

414
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:06,900
We know we're going to have some families that want to still be a part of the independent public school system,

415
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:14,460
but be enrolled in a virtual platform and so we have that at the middle school in the high school.

416
00:37:14,700 --> 00:37:22,320
And so we have reached out to a company that will provide that for us where they will still be enrolled through independent public schools.

417
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:26,420
but their entire learning will be on a virtual platform.

418
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,980
Of course it'll support from the home and we're working.

419
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:41,880
On what that looks like through the enrollment process and everything. So we're close to having that in place, and we'll have that definitely in place by the July 20th Board meeting when we make our final recommendation.

420
00:37:43,020 --> 00:37:58,620
But then the other part, the part that's probably the hardest to figure out exactly, and as an elementary person, it's very difficult to think about not having our youngest children in front of a teacher, learning how to read and do those basic mask skills, it scares me to be really honest with you.

421
00:37:58,620 --> 00:38:02,180
So we need to have a good solid plan for that.

422
00:38:02,500 --> 00:38:05,160
So our plan is to return to school,

423
00:38:05,180 --> 00:38:07,240
basically in a brick and mortar setting,

424
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:11,840
where we take into all the considerations of safety and health,

425
00:38:12,340 --> 00:38:14,580
and all of those things that we can through social distancing

426
00:38:14,580 --> 00:38:16,880
and some of the different items that we've learned.

427
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,080
But we know that there will be some times

428
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:24,760
of intermittent school, whether it's a school closure,

429
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:26,980
one school in the building, or a classroom,

430
00:38:26,980 --> 00:38:33,060
room or a wing of the school or individual students that have gone to fall break and come back

431
00:38:33,060 --> 00:38:38,720
and maybe we're exposed to the coronavirus and need to be out for 14 days or a month

432
00:38:38,720 --> 00:38:45,060
or a water that looks like so we're going to have a blended learning platform where kids

433
00:38:45,060 --> 00:38:51,200
can continue to learn that will be built in through the district we're working on those

434
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:55,500
guidelines right now but one of the expectations we know teachers are going to have to

435
00:38:55,500 --> 00:39:00,500
have things in place that they can do while the kids are in front of them in the brick and mortar

436
00:39:00,500 --> 00:39:02,520
setting that they can carry on at home.

437
00:39:02,700 --> 00:39:06,660
And so we're looking at some digital platforms that will allow us to do that.

438
00:39:07,060 --> 00:39:13,080
We already have Google classroom in place and at the elementary level, it probably, well,

439
00:39:13,140 --> 00:39:14,200
there's no problem about it.

440
00:39:14,340 --> 00:39:16,160
It wasn't utilized like it needed to be.

441
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:22,140
And so we will have a plan in place and some requirements for teachers to meet those expectations.

442
00:39:22,140 --> 00:39:32,260
So when Randy Rader has to stay home from school, he can just log right on like he did the Thursday before he was gone and continue to get that instruction

443
00:39:32,260 --> 00:39:38,640
We're also looking at a platform that we will bring a recommendation to you all for pre-K through second grade

444
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:45,740
And it's really geared for early childhood and it's a great platform and many of our teachers use the free version of that

445
00:39:45,740 --> 00:39:48,140
But we feel like if we're going to ask our teachers to

446
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:57,020
to really dive into it, we're going to need to purchase it, it's not too expensive, but it is something that we know we're going to need for that blended learning environment.

447
00:39:58,620 --> 00:40:03,120
We have met with teachers and administrators and instructional quotes like I said,

448
00:40:03,140 --> 00:40:07,360
I think we've had three face-to-face meetings, social distancing of course,

449
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:16,840
and we're brainstorming those ideas and so we're going to continue to meet and by July 20th we will have a recommendation to the board with our plan.

450
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:22,080
we know we don't have all the answers and probably won't have all of the answers, but we're

451
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:27,740
getting closer every day and so the main thing we're keeping in mind is moving education

452
00:40:27,740 --> 00:40:34,580
forward because we know we can't just stand still another key thing that we're doing. We are

453
00:40:34,580 --> 00:40:40,380
looking at identifying the essential standards and when you talk to all the gurus out there,

454
00:40:40,380 --> 00:40:44,280
we know we have to teach all of the Oklahoma standards, but there are some of them that are

455
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:50,480
that run through the vein of all of elementary education vertically, and so we're identifying those.

456
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:55,960
We've got a very good team working on those, and once we get those essential standards,

457
00:40:56,560 --> 00:41:03,020
say a student has to miss, then the instruction will focus on those essential standards while that child is out.

458
00:41:03,860 --> 00:41:08,360
And so we feel really good about our plan, and it's moving forward well.

459
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:20,420
So, basically, what the elementary and the secondary plan will include our plans for regular

460
00:41:20,420 --> 00:41:27,080
instruction, blended instruction and virtual instruction, and all them on that topic.

461
00:41:27,340 --> 00:41:33,820
Let me say a great big word of thanks to Jeff Irbel and his team that did a Yomans job.

462
00:41:33,820 --> 00:41:39,720
I said it last month too, but they just did a young-inch job in when we were thrust into that whole

463
00:41:39,720 --> 00:41:47,840
distance learning thing, rolling out Chromebooks and hotspots and everything, but we're trying

464
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:59,480
to plan for all of the contingency plans that we might be faced with, and that is basically

465
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:04,640
at the nut shell and there are a lot of details still to be worked out on that.

466
00:42:05,380 --> 00:42:11,640
Obviously, the secondary folks still got a lot of work to do, but I know Dudley

467
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,320
haven't had any time to work on that yet, but did you want anything to what Randy

468
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:15,800
said?

469
00:42:16,940 --> 00:42:17,200
Sure.

470
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:18,520
I can jump in there.

471
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,380
Mr. Stafford actually started this process two weeks ago.

472
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:23,240
I was in attendance of that.

473
00:42:23,660 --> 00:42:25,260
Dr. Ford is 100% right.

474
00:42:25,260 --> 00:42:31,340
my focus is graduation this week, but we've got a second meeting schedule for June 23rd.

475
00:42:31,340 --> 00:42:36,400
A third meeting schedule for June 29th, and our last meeting will be July 15th, the follow-up.

476
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:41,760
Now, I'll just echo a lot of what Mr. Raider said following principles, counselors, and

477
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:46,860
structural coach, and Christian Jones's lead on rainstorm and collectively coming up with

478
00:42:46,860 --> 00:42:47,500
a solid plan.

479
00:42:48,460 --> 00:42:54,100
So, where our intent is to be ready at the July board meeting with the recommendation for

480
00:42:54,100 --> 00:43:03,560
guys with a little more solidified details and hopefully get approval in July and

481
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:07,000
and move forward with those plans. Any questions for Randy or Della?

482
00:43:13,500 --> 00:43:21,840
There was a portion of the learning apparatus that you said that the parents could get

483
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:29,160
for free or the teachers, the teachers can get for free, but there is a parent communication

484
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:34,700
piece in that as well. And so when we when we purchase the full version, we'll unlock

485
00:43:34,700 --> 00:43:41,580
all the parts of it for teachers and parents and the community. So it'll be a good product.

486
00:43:41,720 --> 00:43:46,500
It'll be a nice purchase for the district. Oh, okay. So you want to talk about individual

487
00:43:46,500 --> 00:43:53,400
an individual that if they want to increase their learnability, they could, they could personally

488
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:54,100
buy.

489
00:43:54,420 --> 00:44:00,000
No, it would be a district purchase, but we will have a platform also where individuals

490
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:06,000
can work on skills in reading and math and so we're looking at several different options

491
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:07,220
for that as well.

492
00:44:07,740 --> 00:44:12,320
It's been a busy couple months and so we're looking at everything and I think we're going

493
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:13,320
to have a really good plan.

494
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,580
So, good, thank you, Ms. Fowler.

495
00:44:16,500 --> 00:44:16,740
Ready?

496
00:44:18,100 --> 00:44:20,460
I don't know if I understood this right or not,

497
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:24,380
but you planned to go ahead and purchase all these programs

498
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:29,020
in case we need to use them.

499
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:36,280
Really, we need to use them because of the society

500
00:44:37,460 --> 00:44:39,600
that we live in, moving towards blended learning

501
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:40,780
and everything like that.

502
00:44:41,020 --> 00:44:42,580
We already have Google Classroom,

503
00:44:43,240 --> 00:44:48,600
But I think middle school and high school obviously use it more than some of our classrooms.

504
00:44:48,780 --> 00:44:52,280
I'm sure we have some teachers that are excellent at using it in elementary schools.

505
00:44:53,020 --> 00:44:57,760
But I think there's a tendency to kind of shy away from that virtual type learning with younger kids.

506
00:44:57,960 --> 00:44:59,120
And I understand that.

507
00:44:59,700 --> 00:44:59,980
But we'll...

508
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:07,620
We don't have them in place because kids need to learn how to operate in a brick and mortar setting and they also need to learn to operate digitally.

509
00:45:08,220 --> 00:45:23,080
It's really going to help us with our transition. The bad part of the coronavirus is we missed a lot of school. The good part about the coronavirus is it's going to force us to do some things that we probably should have transitioned to a little easier and better when we went to one to one.

510
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:35,200
So, it's not going to be something that won't be used if we don't have to distance learn it or go to distance learning it will be used in the classroom as part of what we should have been doing anyway.

511
00:45:35,620 --> 00:45:44,280
Will there be any staff development on introducing some of these programs to the teachers?

512
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:46,260
That's actually the next agenda item.

513
00:45:47,020 --> 00:45:51,340
So yes, the short answer is yes and I'll give you the longer answer in just a minute probably.

514
00:45:51,340 --> 00:45:58,200
So, but yes, we know the teachers need to have that training and we're not, we're not going to leave anybody just hanging out to dry on that.

515
00:45:58,260 --> 00:46:02,280
We want to make sure that they're trained well, and that's something that needed to really well.

516
00:46:02,580 --> 00:46:04,140
So we're working on that plan as well.

517
00:46:04,540 --> 00:46:05,180
Thank you.

518
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:06,320
Randy, have a question.

519
00:46:06,540 --> 00:46:17,540
On the elementary level, if the super families that may choose the virtual environment, I know in the secondary level we have our coordinators for that area.

520
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:26,940
Are we going to have specific coordinators or each of the individual teachers going to still have that child enrolled in their class, but they're a virtual student?

521
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:33,720
They will enroll as it stands right now and we're still working out some of the details, they'll enroll for one site.

522
00:46:34,660 --> 00:46:46,380
And this particular program, it's kind of kind of depend on, you know, if we have 10 students financially it would be wise to the company offers teachers as well,

523
00:46:46,380 --> 00:46:51,360
that work, they're still enrolled through the district, but they provide instruction

524
00:46:51,980 --> 00:46:56,520
where they will reach out to the children periodically, weekly, make sure that they're doing

525
00:46:56,520 --> 00:47:03,040
their assignments, provide any help. Once we get to a, we need to judge interest, and once we get

526
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:08,440
to a certain interest level, if we have a certain number of students, it actually would be

527
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:16,100
wise of us to hire a couple of teachers, probably to manage that system, where they would then

528
00:47:16,100 --> 00:47:19,900
out to the children, make sure they're following up and things like that. So, some of that

529
00:47:19,900 --> 00:47:24,340
is going to be based on interest in the business. I think Tory worry may be headed with that

530
00:47:24,340 --> 00:47:29,760
is we don't want it to be double work on the teacher. Let's say the teacher has two or three

531
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:37,340
kids that are quarantined at home. Well, you don't have a teacher want to have to teach all day long

532
00:47:37,340 --> 00:47:43,860
and then after work, go back and do the same thing with these other three kids to try to catch

533
00:47:43,860 --> 00:47:50,040
them up, so that's kind of what that is. The virtual platform won't be a responsibility for

534
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:53,720
any classroom teacher. If that helps answer that question.

535
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:55,860
That's perfect. Thank you.

536
00:47:56,840 --> 00:48:02,020
Alrighty. Thank you, sir. And that's just information for tonight, but we'll have a recommendation

537
00:48:02,020 --> 00:48:11,480
for approval at next month's board meeting. So to Willow Joe's point about professional development,

538
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:18,960
to the next item is also an action item and that is to slightly revise and you've got

539
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:21,200
two handouts board members at your place.

540
00:48:21,860 --> 00:48:29,560
The school calendar for 2021 and you've got the one that says old, that's the one that

541
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:38,340
you approved a few months ago, that starts school on August the 13th for students and ends

542
00:48:38,340 --> 00:48:40,780
school on May the 25th.

543
00:48:40,780 --> 00:48:49,880
We are, and then if you'll take a look at the new one, we are proposing to take two days from the end of the school year in May,

544
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:59,380
and insert those for teachers on August 3rd and 4th, specifically for professional development.

545
00:48:59,380 --> 00:49:14,160
So that we can address just what Wilhelm was talking about, professional development for teachers to get a better handling and some enhancement on virtual slash blended.

546
00:49:14,420 --> 00:49:16,700
Randy anything to add to that calendar?

547
00:49:17,740 --> 00:49:21,600
Yeah, I might be able to head off a couple of questions just before they appear.

548
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:26,920
but one of the things that, if you'll look at it, we didn't take any of our current

549
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:34,300
professional development days because at this time we have 170 teachers signed up to take

550
00:49:34,940 --> 00:49:41,080
letters training, which is a language essentials teachers for reading and spelling program.

551
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:46,160
I've talked about that previously, but it's an online professional development, but it's followed

552
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:53,380
by four face-to-face PD days and those were already built into the schedule we've already

553
00:49:53,380 --> 00:49:59,180
have an investment in that and so we didn't want to disrupt that piece of it and the third

554
00:49:59,180 --> 00:50:03,620
and the fourth were already planned as professional development days they were planned as

555
00:50:03,620 --> 00:50:08,840
they would have been voluntary but we feel like with the magnitude of the training that we're

556
00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:15,840
going to have to do that adding that to the calendar for teachers is wise and then another

557
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:20,960
question that might come up is why did you not just bump it up or start school a couple

558
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:25,140
days later? What if you do that you're going to start school on a Friday which means we're

559
00:50:25,140 --> 00:50:30,500
going to start on Monday and then the other aspect of that is we really wanted to give teachers

560
00:50:30,500 --> 00:50:36,600
a little bit of time to get into some of those programs and practice with them a few times.

561
00:50:36,740 --> 00:50:42,140
Last thing I want to do to a teacher is train them on Wednesday and then say go on Thursday,

562
00:50:42,140 --> 00:50:47,320
you know, we want to give them ants to kind of log in, make sure they have their footing and kind of

563
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:53,040
find what we need to follow up anything with that. So, and that's our recommendation.

564
00:50:53,760 --> 00:51:02,500
So, the third and fourth of August will be not voluntary but mandatory for teachers so that we can focus

565
00:51:02,500 --> 00:51:03,900
on this issue.

566
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:14,620
Oh, okay. Yeah, that's a good one. Okay. Yeah, I forgot to change that up there in the middle

567
00:51:14,620 --> 00:51:21,620
Randy where it says first day in last day in the middle says it still says May 25th.

568
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,120
Well, we need to change that May 20th.

569
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:26,680
We'll make that change before we go.

570
00:51:26,940 --> 00:51:27,600
Good catch.

571
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:29,020
I didn't see that.

572
00:51:30,220 --> 00:51:39,060
And then Sam, I want to say a word just to answer any questions about support employees like

573
00:51:39,060 --> 00:51:46,940
and other support folks, how they will be addressing these two day switch.

574
00:51:47,620 --> 00:51:50,080
Yes, because we're doing a two-day switch,

575
00:51:50,500 --> 00:51:53,800
that could impact some support people such as bus drivers,

576
00:51:54,340 --> 00:51:55,580
child nutrition people.

577
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:57,340
I've talked with both their directors,

578
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,880
and basically we're going to give them PD days as well.

579
00:52:01,020 --> 00:52:03,440
They always do a safety meeting anyways,

580
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:06,960
and with COVID-19, some of these other issues are being brought forward.

581
00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:13,080
I think some prior two school starting PD would be good and or even a post school PD day.

582
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:16,840
So no one is going to lose any compensation over this switch.

583
00:52:17,060 --> 00:52:18,780
So I just want that to be real clear to everyone.

584
00:52:20,950 --> 00:52:25,430
Questions about the slot revision to the 2021 calendar?

585
00:52:26,430 --> 00:52:27,890
If not, we would recommend approval.

586
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:34,420
Motion by we'll adjust the second by Tory. Any other discussion?

587
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:39,920
All is in favor? Aye. Any opposed? Motion carries.

588
00:52:41,620 --> 00:52:45,040
All righty. Next, I'm down to my last two items. That's where.

589
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:46,760
Really?

590
00:52:49,220 --> 00:52:52,780
Okay. Graduates and coming up Thursday. We did have a good day yesterday.

591
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:58,980
Had my fate at 315, a government springs park, and then we had back-lord services at Oakwood Christian Church.

592
00:52:58,980 --> 00:53:04,760
to appreciate the city hosting us as always down there at Governor Springs Park and then

593
00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:09,580
appreciate Oakwood Christian for hosting last night's back Lawrence Services at their

594
00:53:09,580 --> 00:53:14,320
church as well both went very well and then Mr. Darrell has been working diligently

595
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:22,220
on in-person graduation ceremony after a successful virtual graduation ceremony at regular

596
00:53:22,220 --> 00:53:29,480
time and so board members you've got your reserve parking pass there and we will have the

597
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:35,640
cone set out for you on the Vester side over by the new soccer locker room and one of the

598
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:42,220
police officers will be over there. I'll try to show up by around seven. I'll show them your

599
00:53:42,220 --> 00:53:47,700
parking pass. I'll move the cone, let you pull in there and then you can walk through the soccer

600
00:53:48,500 --> 00:53:56,460
fieldhouse and over to the Ponticsburg fieldhouse and we'll convene there at around 7 or

601
00:53:56,460 --> 00:54:01,600
slightly thereafter and then right at 730 we'll walk out to the field for graduation like

602
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:10,020
we always do and the difference this year being that due to social distancing we probably will

603
00:54:10,020 --> 00:54:16,260
not have the board members set on the stage I have probably set you down on the field close to

604
00:54:16,260 --> 00:54:22,340
stage and we won't be, frankly, if I'm wrong, but we won't be doing any handshake in

605
00:54:22,340 --> 00:54:23,660
our hugging and all that.

606
00:54:26,100 --> 00:54:30,260
But board members, if you are still admin about wanting to

607
00:54:30,260 --> 00:54:39,600
go up there and hand one of the graduates there, diploma cover will just head up there,

608
00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:44,700
you know, about the time a little bit before that student gets there and will certainly let you do that.

609
00:54:44,700 --> 00:54:49,240
Mr. Darrell, what else would you like to share with us about graduation on Thursday?

610
00:54:52,790 --> 00:54:54,390
It's going to be hot.

611
00:54:54,590 --> 00:54:55,830
I'll tell you that.

612
00:54:55,950 --> 00:55:01,030
It's going to be hot on the turf, but now we are facing all the students out as far as we can.

613
00:55:01,290 --> 00:55:06,790
Both vertically, road and road, also horizontally, two to three feet across.

614
00:55:07,430 --> 00:55:11,170
Also, we're going to have additional seating available in the west parking lot,

615
00:55:11,370 --> 00:55:16,390
where we've encouraged family members if they like to go out there and set the lawn chair to give more space.

616
00:55:16,390 --> 00:55:22,430
They have that opportunity. So I'll be another addition of adding to it. So we'll have water there for practice for the kids

617
00:55:22,430 --> 00:55:28,030
We'll have water there at night. It's going to be a little more warm than it is in May as you all know, but

618
00:55:28,030 --> 00:55:31,990
We had a great turn on yesterday and I'm looking forward to a great Thursday as well

619
00:55:31,990 --> 00:55:37,890
So for the record we had talked some time back because the whole corona thing

620
00:55:39,370 --> 00:55:42,410
As if we did get to do an in-person graduation

621
00:55:42,410 --> 00:55:49,430
and where we're going to have to issue a limited number of tickets to each graduate to keep

622
00:55:49,430 --> 00:55:51,370
everybody socially distant.

623
00:55:52,130 --> 00:55:58,930
Well, now that the governor and the mayor have opened things back up, that is not necessary,

624
00:55:59,310 --> 00:56:01,550
so we are not issuing a limited number of tickets.

625
00:56:01,570 --> 00:56:02,850
It is open to the public.

626
00:56:03,030 --> 00:56:07,370
We'll have both sides, the home and the visitor side open, and as Mr. Darrow just said,

627
00:56:07,370 --> 00:56:13,310
we even are going to open up the west practice field on the other side of the scoreboard for

628
00:56:13,310 --> 00:56:18,210
people if they want to to bring their lawn chairs and watch the graduation ceremony from there. So

629
00:56:18,210 --> 00:56:24,790
we encourage families to sit together and then to the extent that they can distance a little

630
00:56:24,790 --> 00:56:30,850
little distance between them and the next family and kind of spread out on both sides of the field

631
00:56:30,850 --> 00:56:32,570
or on the west side.

632
00:56:32,850 --> 00:56:34,090
May I ask a question?

633
00:56:36,870 --> 00:56:41,150
Do you expect a pre-highest percentage of the students to be there?

634
00:56:42,990 --> 00:56:45,790
I'm open, so this fellow, I'm not going to lie.

635
00:56:45,970 --> 00:56:49,090
I'm open, so I was very encouraged by the turnout yesterday.

636
00:56:49,390 --> 00:56:49,790
May fate.

637
00:56:49,970 --> 00:56:55,930
That was a lot of students out there for a three o'clock middle June Sunday.

638
00:56:55,930 --> 00:57:00,630
But I anticipate, traditionally speaking, it's a very well-attended event.

639
00:57:00,950 --> 00:57:05,630
It's a lot of pride and a lot of family celebrate the success of these kids.

640
00:57:06,110 --> 00:57:11,370
So I'm anticipated to get turned out 400 and I think I believe 400 and six total students.

641
00:57:12,010 --> 00:57:13,170
So we're hoping to get all of them.

642
00:57:13,510 --> 00:57:13,990
That's good.

643
00:57:14,250 --> 00:57:14,410
Thank you.

644
00:57:14,570 --> 00:57:21,870
And then these students and parents put a lot of work into raising money for project graduation.

645
00:57:21,870 --> 00:57:29,850
And this senior class as we know didn't get to have a lot of their activities during the spring semester.

646
00:57:30,970 --> 00:57:34,790
So we have agreed that they will after graduation.

647
00:57:35,050 --> 00:57:40,890
They will be able to conduct their project graduation at the new gym at the high school.

648
00:57:41,010 --> 00:57:45,590
That's the new gym that they didn't get to enjoy while they were at high school.

649
00:57:46,050 --> 00:57:50,270
So this is our offer to them to get to enjoy that a little bit.

650
00:57:50,270 --> 00:57:52,350
So what are the hours on that 10?

651
00:57:52,430 --> 00:57:53,750
I believe it's from 10 to 1.

652
00:57:54,010 --> 00:57:54,550
10 to 1.

653
00:57:55,390 --> 00:58:00,410
I hope it exists there and some pizza and some water and so we're looking forward to it.

654
00:58:00,970 --> 00:58:05,710
And so these seniors will get to enjoy that facility a little bit at least.

655
00:58:06,470 --> 00:58:14,390
And then you might have heard about a collective prom that not after that is not a school

656
00:58:14,390 --> 00:58:18,250
sponsored event that is sponsored by different organizations.

657
00:58:18,250 --> 00:58:23,270
So, um, just wanted to make sure everybody knew that's not a school's march to the band.

658
00:58:23,570 --> 00:58:25,470
All right, any questions for me or Dudley back graduation?

659
00:58:26,150 --> 00:58:27,010
I do have a question.

660
00:58:27,410 --> 00:58:31,410
This is small and light of all of the big things that you're having to think about,

661
00:58:31,570 --> 00:58:34,570
but there's this tradition, and that I'm sure you're aware of,

662
00:58:34,610 --> 00:58:36,030
where are the seniors give you a night?

663
00:58:36,150 --> 00:58:36,830
No, no, tell me.

664
00:58:37,350 --> 00:58:37,390
What?

665
00:58:38,450 --> 00:58:39,530
That never happened.

666
00:58:40,650 --> 00:58:42,030
Are they going to be able to do that?

667
00:58:44,860 --> 00:58:46,260
I never know what they're going to give me,

668
00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:48,220
so I don't know if that'll happen or not.

669
00:58:48,220 --> 00:58:56,620
But now that we're not shaking hands. I mean, I don't know. I'm sure they'll do something

670
00:58:57,140 --> 00:59:03,220
You'll have a box up there. Just in case. I'm gonna suggest a Velcro bib and they can throw something it will take to the Velcro

671
00:59:05,380 --> 00:59:09,000
All right, so I know it's been a hectic

672
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:12,500
semester for the seniors and for

673
00:59:12,500 --> 00:59:17,640
Dudley and all of the folks at the high school, but I think they made the best of it, so

674
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:22,640
appreciate all the plans you guys have put together and hopefully have a good day and good

675
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:29,380
night on Thursday. Last item of my September 10 report is we are happy and pleased that

676
00:59:29,380 --> 00:59:35,100
Indian Public Schools have been named a 2020 certified family positive workplace by the

677
00:59:35,100 --> 00:59:42,100
Pots Family and I think I sent board members a copy of that press release and we certainly

678
00:59:42,100 --> 00:59:49,660
appreciate the positive family recognizing that we do try to do our best to be a positive

679
00:59:49,660 --> 00:59:57,660
family workplace for our employees and I think some of that is evidenced by the employee

680
00:59:57,660 --> 00:59:59,980
daycare that we implemented this year.

681
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:06,840
And we're looking for a good positive second year of that as we move forward into that second year this fall as well.

682
01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:15,760
So congratulations to everybody for putting their best foot forward and getting that recognition for certified family positive workplace.

683
01:00:16,020 --> 01:00:16,520
Well, dessert.

684
01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:21,800
All right, Mr. Board President, truly now that is the end of my serve, tenor report.

685
01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:22,840
Are you sure?

686
01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:23,180
Yes.

687
01:00:23,180 --> 01:00:32,920
Our, which brings us to regular business, item four, we can take item four, A, one through, seven, I believe.

688
01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:35,080
Do I have a motion?

689
01:00:36,380 --> 01:00:37,140
Maybe a proof.

690
01:00:37,500 --> 01:00:38,140
Motion, my Tory.

691
01:00:39,020 --> 01:00:40,760
Second by Amanda, any discussion?

692
01:00:41,660 --> 01:00:42,640
I do.

693
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:43,960
Mr. Jansen.

694
01:00:45,820 --> 01:00:48,180
Dr. Robinson, we just verify for all of us.

695
01:00:49,300 --> 01:00:50,140
The items A,

696
01:00:50,140 --> 01:00:51,660
Before we can you pull that mic?

697
01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:52,880
Yeah, I can't.

698
01:00:53,500 --> 01:00:54,120
I can't.

699
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:56,300
Items a basically four or three seven.

700
01:00:56,460 --> 01:00:58,300
Those are all just renewals.

701
01:00:58,580 --> 01:00:58,740
Correct.

702
01:00:59,080 --> 01:01:02,020
For the year, not no major changes in there.

703
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:04,740
There is nothing new on here.

704
01:01:04,780 --> 01:01:05,860
These are all businesses.

705
01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:07,460
Any associations.

706
01:01:08,100 --> 01:01:09,960
Any agreements that we have a currently in place.

707
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:11,140
We're just renewing them.

708
01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:12,920
For the FY21 school year.

709
01:01:12,940 --> 01:01:13,200
Perfect.

710
01:01:13,340 --> 01:01:13,960
No additions.

711
01:01:17,060 --> 01:01:17,920
Anyone else?

712
01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:19,520
All those in favor?

713
01:01:20,020 --> 01:01:20,320
Hi.

714
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:21,360
Any opposed?

715
01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:28,140
the motion carries. Item 4B discussion and possible action to approve the district's financial

716
01:01:28,140 --> 01:01:31,440
report from May 2020. Dr. Robinson.

717
01:01:33,620 --> 01:01:37,640
Well, the revenue is coming in pretty steady, but

718
01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:43,820
there is a little bit of concern that I want to talk about, and that has to do with gross

719
01:01:43,820 --> 01:01:49,860
production and state land earnings, which both of those are tied to the price of oil. At the current

720
01:01:49,860 --> 01:01:54,980
situation we're sitting at, we're looking at the possibility of almost $500,000 being under

721
01:01:54,980 --> 01:02:01,740
collected between those two. It's right around that number. That's where this, this current

722
01:02:01,740 --> 01:02:07,360
fiscal year. There is the possibility that the state rainy day funds the state could cut us a

723
01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:11,600
check at the very end of the month and all that gets made up. I really don't know how they're

724
01:02:11,600 --> 01:02:16,960
playing on using that rainy day fund to shore up the education budget. I will say that we did

725
01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:20,960
select 100% of our state aid, which we actually got a $3,900

726
01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:24,140
bump last week, given to us in our allocation notice.

727
01:02:24,540 --> 01:02:26,800
So that's the good news on that side of the bad news is

728
01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:28,740
that other part is not part of state aid.

729
01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:31,300
It's part of our county, a portion of it on that.

730
01:02:31,780 --> 01:02:33,840
So I just kind of want to give you guys the news on that.

731
01:02:33,980 --> 01:02:36,980
The next month we could be talking about a little bit different

732
01:02:36,980 --> 01:02:38,660
case than we kind of been talking going forward.

733
01:02:39,220 --> 01:02:41,520
But we will not be the only school district impact

734
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:42,000
by that.

735
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:46,480
When you have oil gazed at $54 a barrel and it goes down

736
01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:49,740
to actually went into the negative territory there for a day, but it's been sitting around

737
01:02:49,740 --> 01:02:53,940
$38 a barrel, you're going to have a revenue shortfall.

738
01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:58,880
There is still also a very remote possibility, I think, we are further removed from it,

739
01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:01,980
based on what I was given this week of a revenue failure.

740
01:03:02,780 --> 01:03:06,900
Hopefully, people will continue spending money in our economy and our state.

741
01:03:07,140 --> 01:03:13,560
Hopefully, the number of COVID cases remain at a steady pace that hospitals and the state

742
01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:19,280
can deal with and that there is not a revenue failure because there was an uptick in spending

743
01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:21,680
and revenue collections by the state in a month of May.

744
01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:26,340
And so that is all very good news for ending this fiscal year and going into next fiscal

745
01:03:26,340 --> 01:03:27,920
year on a positive note.

746
01:03:28,580 --> 01:03:31,640
So everything really from our financial side is looking good.

747
01:03:31,940 --> 01:03:37,860
We are currently expenditure-wise, we are under-encumbered based on my projections, which

748
01:03:37,860 --> 01:03:40,140
we knew that was going to happen with the shutdown of schools.

749
01:03:40,140 --> 01:03:47,020
And so, once we get all the bills in, that number could even fall even more closing at the fiscal year and about 15 days.

750
01:03:47,860 --> 01:03:57,720
So, I hate to give you the dim and the limit of the minus 500 because we're really truly the budget is overall in a really good place besides that number for those two funds.

751
01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:00,520
So, if there's any questions, I'll take them now.

752
01:04:05,090 --> 01:04:06,770
So, I'll just need a motion right.

753
01:04:07,030 --> 01:04:08,190
I'd like to go into approval.

754
01:04:10,530 --> 01:04:11,650
Motion by Willow Joe.

755
01:04:12,450 --> 01:04:13,390
Second by Frank.

756
01:04:13,390 --> 01:04:15,130
All is in favour?

757
01:04:15,310 --> 01:04:15,770
Aye.

758
01:04:16,010 --> 01:04:16,790
Any opposed?

759
01:04:17,610 --> 01:04:18,470
The motion carries.

760
01:04:19,490 --> 01:04:24,310
Item 4C, discussion and possible action to approve allowing Dr. Floyd's superintendent

761
01:04:24,310 --> 01:04:31,170
of unit public schools to approve the contract with Copy release prior to the July 24 meeting.

762
01:04:31,610 --> 01:04:37,050
As submitted through our competitive quotes based on the districts request for proposals.

763
01:04:37,050 --> 01:04:44,070
annual lease not to exceed 325,000 for a four-year lease agreement, Dr. Robinson.

764
01:04:44,510 --> 01:04:48,530
Our copiers have hit the end of their life. We've had our current copiers for five years.

765
01:04:48,870 --> 01:04:52,410
I think any teacher in the district will tell you they would rather take a hammer to it

766
01:04:52,410 --> 01:04:56,930
and push the start button to make another copy. So this is something we have to do.

767
01:04:57,010 --> 01:05:00,190
We have to provide copiers. Jeff has done a very good job.

768
01:05:00,390 --> 01:05:05,230
My opinion of going out, seeing where a current copiers are, talking with principles about working

769
01:05:05,230 --> 01:05:08,850
we do some copy reductions, what can we do to make copying more efficient?

770
01:05:10,290 --> 01:05:13,010
And so he's actually already started the quote process.

771
01:05:13,390 --> 01:05:17,570
But in order to make sure we have these copyers in place and ready to go for the start of school,

772
01:05:17,910 --> 01:05:21,430
it's necessary to give Dr. Floyd the ability to approve that lease agreement

773
01:05:21,430 --> 01:05:25,150
rather than wait for the July board meeting which could hold us up

774
01:05:25,150 --> 01:05:27,530
and actually push copyers going into September.

775
01:05:28,070 --> 01:05:31,410
And those of us that have done that before, that is not a good situation

776
01:05:31,410 --> 01:05:36,230
as a teacher or a building administrator to deal with new copiers after school has started

777
01:05:36,230 --> 01:05:38,650
starting with old machines that are about to fall apart.

778
01:05:39,330 --> 01:05:41,670
So, the other change to this is our current copiers.

779
01:05:41,830 --> 01:05:45,770
We did a three-year lease prior, and that three-year lease right now,

780
01:05:45,870 --> 01:05:47,590
and we went into a two-year maintenance agreement.

781
01:05:48,190 --> 01:05:52,550
Well, really, and truly, year four was really the last solid year

782
01:05:53,010 --> 01:05:55,110
of not having a lot of copier issues on the campuses.

783
01:05:55,350 --> 01:05:58,970
And so, this is kind of, we now own all of this copiers, by the way.

784
01:05:59,770 --> 01:06:04,010
This is a way for us to just kind of lease those, and at the end of that four-year period,

785
01:06:04,010 --> 01:06:07,930
we enter into a new lease, those copiers go back to the whoever we lease them from,

786
01:06:08,170 --> 01:06:12,530
and we are no longer the owners of any copy machines because I really hate for the data come

787
01:06:12,530 --> 01:06:16,870
when we have to take care of the 100 plus copiers that are not good to anyone

788
01:06:16,870 --> 01:06:19,670
and there just pieces of scrap plastic and metal out there.

789
01:06:19,870 --> 01:06:22,190
So this is really kind of the plan to go forward,

790
01:06:22,310 --> 01:06:26,790
and I think it's also the best financial option to take care of our copiers.

791
01:06:27,750 --> 01:06:29,150
It's just need a motion to approve.

792
01:06:29,190 --> 01:06:31,690
There's a push plan for the old covers.

793
01:06:32,590 --> 01:06:37,070
Right now we have put it in our proposal that whoever we get the lease with will take those off of our hands.

794
01:06:37,350 --> 01:06:39,790
So there is some cash value in those copiers.

795
01:06:40,910 --> 01:06:43,210
But there is potential that you, you could,

796
01:06:43,490 --> 01:06:45,570
copiers could become outdated very quickly.

797
01:06:45,630 --> 01:06:46,910
There could be a change of technology.

798
01:06:47,130 --> 01:06:47,770
That's right.

799
01:06:49,750 --> 01:06:50,890
And we do not want to have money.

800
01:06:51,030 --> 01:06:55,530
It's right now the plan is to have that whoever we do a lease with will take him from us.

801
01:06:56,790 --> 01:07:02,450
Do I have a motion no way proof look my story second by Amanda in the other discussion

802
01:07:03,070 --> 01:07:07,930
All of the favor any opposed the motion carries

803
01:07:07,930 --> 01:07:15,850
Item 4D discussion and possible action to approve contract with Trinity 3 technologies for district wide Chromebook edition

804
01:07:15,850 --> 01:07:20,260
For grades kindergarten through second grade at an annual cost of 200 and

805
01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:24,580
$16,500 for four years, Dr. Robinson.

806
01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:29,980
All right, these Chromebooks are going to replace our current iPads that we are using in kindergarten through.

807
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:51,280
Second grade. This, the elementary folks and Jeff and IT have made this suggestion that if we have to go to distance learning and for other reasons, like classroom usage, just as we talked about earlier, that moving that age group to Chromebooks is our best option to be prepared for the unknown and to be preparing students for a better future.

808
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:59,240
And so in doing this, this is basically going to roll this 216 in with our $390,000 Chromebook

809
01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:00,920
Packages that we did earlier in the year.

810
01:08:01,340 --> 01:08:09,040
And so the whole Chromebook package will expire in four years and will roll K through 12 at that

811
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:09,580
point times.

812
01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:14,220
So this is at least that's going on top of our other Chromebook lease.

813
01:08:14,460 --> 01:08:19,300
So it's kind of just getting us all under one umbrella, one payment group that we have to make.

814
01:08:20,770 --> 01:08:27,930
question. So originally, my understanding, like we used iPads for those lower levels, because

815
01:08:27,930 --> 01:08:32,930
of usability, ease of usability for the kids. And I have definitely been in an elementary

816
01:08:32,930 --> 01:08:37,990
school classroom during computer lab time and helped with computer lab time. And it's scary

817
01:08:37,990 --> 01:08:44,830
with young kids. It's like the most fast-paced, mile a minute trying to solve problems for kids

818
01:08:44,830 --> 01:08:51,170
computers ever. The ability to use the devices, I mean, they are just learning how to use them.

819
01:08:52,330 --> 01:08:59,810
So, how does the administration planning to address teachers' needs for helping their kids learn

820
01:08:59,810 --> 01:09:04,650
how to use these devices when they're so vastly different and so much more complicated than iPads?

821
01:09:05,230 --> 01:09:14,010
I have to give that to Mr. Raider. Lots of practice. We have a couple. Actually, we had about three

822
01:09:14,010 --> 01:09:20,610
parents on our distance learning plan committee that are also teachers, a couple of

823
01:09:20,610 --> 01:09:24,190
actually had kindergarten students and one of those parents is actually the one

824
01:09:24,190 --> 01:09:28,530
that suggested that we just move to that platform because she said my kindergarten

825
01:09:28,530 --> 01:09:33,070
kid, once I showed him how to log in and everything like that, I mean it was fine.

826
01:09:34,050 --> 01:09:38,690
Obviously I've had more intuitive, I mean that I think the kids know how to use them,

827
01:09:38,690 --> 01:09:44,950
but it's one of those things that we're just going to have to build time into our day to teach

828
01:09:44,950 --> 01:09:51,270
to have our teachers teach the kids how to use them. And so while I do agree that the computer lab

829
01:09:51,270 --> 01:09:57,790
is chaotic for the first couple weeks when you go in with those younger children, it does get better.

830
01:09:58,390 --> 01:10:04,390
The cafeteria is chaotic, you know, for pretty cakey, it's the first three or four weeks and

831
01:10:04,390 --> 01:10:11,650
into the year, they're better. So I think it's something that we know that it, that

832
01:10:11,650 --> 01:10:18,170
educationally, it may be different for teachers, but I still think that in the environment

833
01:10:18,170 --> 01:10:24,430
that we're in with the possibility of having maybe some breaks in the educational system,

834
01:10:24,930 --> 01:10:32,310
we have to be able to provide those devices to our families and it makes the most financial

835
01:10:32,310 --> 01:10:36,810
sense and educational sense to have a platform that everybody is using.

836
01:10:38,050 --> 01:10:42,870
We gave one device out to families this year and we need to do better than that and I

837
01:10:42,870 --> 01:10:46,790
think Chromebook is our best option to do that.

838
01:10:47,250 --> 01:10:54,010
My follow up to that is just because you know for me it all comes back down to teacher

839
01:10:55,270 --> 01:11:08,510
So, making sure that this level is very supportive of teachers and it's very intuned to listening to the issues they're having while you're moving forward in this, along with encouraging principles to have a year.

840
01:11:09,530 --> 01:11:19,110
And which I know you guys do. That's my biggest fear is just I mean, there's so much beginning of the year for these teachers of young kids, making sure that they're not getting beaten down by the process.

841
01:11:19,110 --> 01:11:27,590
So, and we all understand that, and none of us want that, I hate to say it, but these are

842
01:11:27,590 --> 01:11:33,950
unprecedented times, and because that's all we hear right now, but it's such a fact that

843
01:11:33,950 --> 01:11:36,530
we're just going to have to kind of work our way through this.

844
01:11:36,590 --> 01:11:40,410
I mean, I'm going to lie to you, I've had a couple first-grade teachers kind of corner me and say,

845
01:11:40,490 --> 01:11:46,070
why are we doing this, and really when you look at the bigger picture, it's the smart thing to

846
01:11:46,070 --> 01:11:52,770
do right now, known for well that it's maybe not the easiest thing to do, but we're going

847
01:11:52,770 --> 01:11:57,770
to support our teachers in that and provide the training and the empathy and the grace

848
01:11:57,770 --> 01:12:02,410
when it doesn't go perfectly well. And so I think that's the key.

849
01:12:02,810 --> 01:12:09,210
And the other thing, I'm sorry, I'm kind of stuck on this, but this is a least correct.

850
01:12:10,270 --> 01:12:17,410
So, you know, time runs out, there's an immunization for COVID, miraculously it's fantastic, everybody gets immunized.

851
01:12:17,490 --> 01:12:19,170
We don't have to worry about this problem anymore.

852
01:12:20,290 --> 01:12:24,930
Are you guys open to going back to something more easy for those younger kids and for those teachers?

853
01:12:25,510 --> 01:12:32,170
We're always open to that and it's like, I actually told a couple of teachers and principals the other day,

854
01:12:32,170 --> 01:12:39,530
The district's going to provide this for every child so that we can say across the board that we have that.

855
01:12:39,990 --> 01:12:51,830
But we also know that every building has individual needs and there are other sources of funding where teachers and principals can make decisions on what they provide for those students.

856
01:12:52,070 --> 01:13:00,130
And so whether it's federal money through Title I or their building allocation or you know the PTA making that a focus.

857
01:13:00,130 --> 01:13:05,010
So there are more than just one ways to do that.

858
01:13:05,690 --> 01:13:09,050
And so I think there's going to have to be some creativity in that.

859
01:13:10,290 --> 01:13:15,510
And I don't think we're just going to shut the door completely on the use of iPads in the classroom.

860
01:13:15,990 --> 01:13:18,030
I think we're just going to have to be smart about it.

861
01:13:18,190 --> 01:13:25,150
And it may not be as convenient, but I also see the need that there may still be some iPads left in small groups.

862
01:13:25,150 --> 01:13:29,810
you know for small group instruction because we know they sometimes replace the the

863
01:13:29,810 --> 01:13:33,570
recorder that you all set around the you know and had the earphones plugged into

864
01:13:33,570 --> 01:13:37,090
one central hub so I think we're just gonna have to be smart about it and we're just

865
01:13:37,090 --> 01:13:41,670
gonna have to look at individual need and and teacher need and building need because

866
01:13:41,670 --> 01:13:48,390
that's the hardest part is we don't have identical buildings and so with that comes

867
01:13:48,390 --> 01:13:52,650
decisions we have to make and I think in this situation we're just trying to look at

868
01:13:52,650 --> 01:13:56,590
what's good for the whole district, and then we'll kind of narrow down what's best for the

869
01:13:56,590 --> 01:14:03,710
sites and individuals, and one more item on the plus side, I think, is that in doing

870
01:14:03,710 --> 01:14:11,910
this, it eliminates one transition that the kid starts on an iPad, any moves to Chromebook,

871
01:14:12,670 --> 01:14:17,170
he has to make that transition at some point in his elementary career, and so that eliminates.

872
01:14:17,170 --> 01:14:23,970
in our iPads are several years old and so those operating systems stop up dating and so and I don't

873
01:14:23,970 --> 01:14:28,470
know exactly when that was I have talked to Jeff about it. I'm sure he's told me 15 times but

874
01:14:28,470 --> 01:14:32,730
I just it hadn't stuck in my brain but at some point we're going to have to replace what we have anyway and

875
01:14:33,370 --> 01:14:39,550
sometimes financially this is the the right thing to do. There's also some software that doesn't work on the

876
01:14:39,550 --> 01:14:46,350
app that we use like we have had some issues with one of our RSA screeners not working well on an

877
01:14:46,350 --> 01:14:52,130
at where it works flawlessly on the Chromebook, so there were some other considerations taken

878
01:14:52,130 --> 01:14:57,970
as well. I can answer a couple of those questions. One, the iPads are not being purchased

879
01:14:57,970 --> 01:14:59,970
like we did with the other Chromebook lease.

880
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:29,980
On the iPads are staying in the district, so there is opportunity for them to still be using the classroom, like Randy was talking about. The other thing is, is the iPads do run out of usability in four years. So in four years, we can actually be stuck with a bill and I hate to bring this back to how to finance. But the Chromebooks are about a third of the cost of replacing the iPads. So imagine me coming to you in four years and saying, I need to get $650,000 in today's money. I don't know what that look like.

881
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:35,000
in four years to replace iPads and get in grades K through second grade.

882
01:15:35,440 --> 01:15:37,700
And we may not have the money to do it at that point in time.

883
01:15:38,020 --> 01:15:42,300
I couldn't answer that question if we would or not, but I think there's some financial

884
01:15:42,300 --> 01:15:42,640
reasons.

885
01:15:42,660 --> 01:15:46,780
I think there's some educational reasons, and the good news is that we can actually do some

886
01:15:46,780 --> 01:15:51,100
transitioning with the iPads still because we're not giving them to anybody in the process.

887
01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:54,620
And you guys do know I don't care about the financial things, right?

888
01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:55,140
It's right.

889
01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:59,180
I don't care if it's saving as money and it's worth, you have to go out of pay for it if you

890
01:15:59,660 --> 01:16:03,100
But when I was asking about a lease, it was really about the Chromebooks that we're buying

891
01:16:03,100 --> 01:16:07,180
for the younger kids, those were not purchasing, we're leasing those.

892
01:16:07,180 --> 01:16:07,960
We're releasing them.

893
01:16:08,020 --> 01:16:09,200
Just like what it for the upper grades.

894
01:16:09,680 --> 01:16:09,920
I'm done.

895
01:16:10,180 --> 01:16:10,620
Okay.

896
01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:13,000
I have a question for you.

897
01:16:13,300 --> 01:16:19,660
Going back to the draft learning plan for this coming near, and you talked about for pre-K through

898
01:16:19,660 --> 01:16:26,320
second using the C-Saw platform, which has, I had a kindergarten earlier this year who

899
01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:32,780
use that on the iPad and it was a great form. I realized there's a version probably for the

900
01:16:32,780 --> 01:16:38,100
Chromebook, but is it as seamless and user friendly? Is it going, I mean if we move in that

901
01:16:38,100 --> 01:16:43,280
direction, is it going to be, is it going to blend how we want it to? I will tell you that

902
01:16:44,720 --> 01:16:56,300
probably a student in your own child's class, parent is one that told me that the Chromebook would be

903
01:16:56,300 --> 01:16:58,660
on it and love that program as well.

904
01:16:59,120 --> 01:17:01,160
So I personally don't have experience with that,

905
01:17:01,440 --> 01:17:04,920
but we do look at that and we do talk to people about that.

906
01:17:05,180 --> 01:17:06,220
We talk to our reps.

907
01:17:06,380 --> 01:17:08,360
I mean, we make sure all of that is compatible.

908
01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:11,160
Nothing's as easy as a touch screen.

909
01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:13,420
I mean, that's the reality of things,

910
01:17:15,100 --> 01:17:18,360
but this individual parent who is also a well-respected teacher

911
01:17:18,360 --> 01:17:20,740
felt like it would be a great platform

912
01:17:20,740 --> 01:17:22,340
even for kindergarten children.

913
01:17:22,540 --> 01:17:23,440
Are you guys good enough?

914
01:17:23,700 --> 01:17:24,660
Thank you.

915
01:17:25,720 --> 01:17:31,660
anyone else. Just for the record I do care about finances in general. I don't

916
01:17:31,660 --> 01:17:34,460
want the community think there's a board member that's just like spending all

917
01:17:34,460 --> 01:17:39,080
the district's money. Okay. No. But yeah okay just you know when it comes down

918
01:17:39,080 --> 01:17:42,400
to classroom whether or not it's going to work for a child as much more important to

919
01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:44,640
me. That's all. I don't have a motion.

920
01:17:44,800 --> 01:17:50,700
Ms. Wait for you. Motion by Tory. Second by Frank. All those in favor? Hi.

921
01:17:50,700 --> 01:17:53,980
And he opposed, the motion carries,

922
01:17:56,160 --> 01:18:01,120
item 4E, discussed the discussion and possible action to approve

923
01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:10,580
2020-2021, tentative agreement between the Education and Education Association and the Enid Board of Education, Dr. Floyd.

924
01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:24,800
All right. Actually, I asked Sam to hit the highlights. You got two items here. One is our EEA negotiations agreement, and then the one right after this is the support negotiation agreement.

925
01:18:25,480 --> 01:18:32,540
We have completed negotiations on both of these. Espo, the support, which is item 4F.

926
01:18:32,540 --> 01:18:42,620
that organization has already done their election and votes and approved it.

927
01:18:42,860 --> 01:18:50,620
We thought EIA would be able to complete their vote by now too, but they were not able

928
01:18:50,620 --> 01:18:51,800
to get that done.

929
01:18:52,480 --> 01:19:01,360
So I'll have Sam run through both the first EIA certified agreement and what is included

930
01:19:01,360 --> 01:19:07,800
in that. Okay, well to start off with the good news is is that we are, we did offer the full

931
01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:14,280
step, no change in the step, and to me that's a pretty generous offer with the unknown

932
01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:20,200
in front of us, and so that's the good news. The other good news is that there's some

933
01:19:20,200 --> 01:19:25,120
technical things have been put in there such as how this school business is put in, how

934
01:19:25,120 --> 01:19:31,900
different types of lever put in, and then notification of new hires to EEA as far as that goes.

935
01:19:32,120 --> 01:19:39,760
And then we are stopping the pace scale at your 40, however, any employee that goes to your 40,

936
01:19:39,840 --> 01:19:46,200
41, 42, on up will receive the difference between year 39 and year 40.

937
01:19:46,220 --> 01:19:49,960
We're just not going to, as you guys know, in some of my finance reports, the print keeps getting smaller,

938
01:19:50,060 --> 01:19:52,020
the more data we add to it.

939
01:19:52,020 --> 01:19:57,340
So to keep that, that pay scale at a 40-year max, we are still going to continue giving

940
01:19:57,340 --> 01:20:01,280
step raises to those employees that go past year 40 with us, and it'll be the same

941
01:20:01,280 --> 01:20:02,540
increment from 30 to 40.

942
01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:05,560
So that's the, that's the highlight to the agreement.

943
01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:12,120
So given the unknown financial situation that we are faced with, we felt really good about

944
01:20:12,120 --> 01:20:16,680
being able to provide this step raise for the certified folks.

945
01:20:16,920 --> 01:20:19,120
That was obviously the biggest piece of that agreement.

946
01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:27,780
And so we were happy that we could provide that to our well-deserving teachers and certified folks.

947
01:20:29,060 --> 01:20:42,220
So what we would like to do since EIA has not yet voted to approve that we would recommend approval by the board tonight and then upon EIA's approval, it will be a done deal.

948
01:20:42,500 --> 01:20:43,740
So, recommend approval.

949
01:20:44,500 --> 01:20:46,260
Motion by Amanda.

950
01:20:47,240 --> 01:20:48,020
Second by Frank.

951
01:20:48,020 --> 01:20:56,300
any other discussion? Just for the record as a board court, that's board approval up on approval

952
01:20:56,300 --> 01:21:02,360
of EA of the contract. Should they not approve of this then we come back in July to do this again.

953
01:21:02,620 --> 01:21:08,400
Yeah and we don't have an indication they came to the table and good faith and are recommending

954
01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:14,800
approval to their folks. So we have no indication that they want to approve it but that's good.

955
01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:16,120
It's technical, a little point.

956
01:21:16,460 --> 01:21:17,840
It's a little bit more clarify then.

957
01:21:19,120 --> 01:21:19,340
Good.

958
01:21:20,360 --> 01:21:21,060
It's always a favor.

959
01:21:21,520 --> 01:21:21,800
Hi.

960
01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:22,340
Hi.

961
01:21:22,340 --> 01:21:23,080
Any opposed?

962
01:21:23,720 --> 01:21:24,460
Motion carries?

963
01:21:25,480 --> 01:21:25,780
Discussion.

964
01:21:26,420 --> 01:21:27,020
4F.

965
01:21:27,160 --> 01:21:27,760
Item 4.

966
01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:28,320
I've skied me.

967
01:21:28,320 --> 01:21:28,700
Discussion.

968
01:21:28,780 --> 01:21:34,900
The possible action to approve the 2021 Support personnel, tentative agreement between the

969
01:21:34,900 --> 01:21:40,600
Enid, Education, Support personnel, Vocal Homa, and the Enid Board of Education.

970
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:45,960
So this group has voted and approved last time to hit the highlight of the support group.

971
01:21:46,300 --> 01:21:52,760
Okay, once again with support, every support person will be given their step-in-crease as determined by their pay skill.

972
01:21:53,440 --> 01:22:00,920
There are a couple of changes we are pulling campus police officers and our license maintenance people actually out of that agreement

973
01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:05,040
because they have been deemed to have a district wide responsibility

974
01:22:05,040 --> 01:22:13,740
And some changes are going to be made in regards to their, to how they're paid for their licensing that we have for them and also some retirement benefits.

975
01:22:14,440 --> 01:22:19,680
The other portion of that is, we are also stopping their pay scale at year 40.

976
01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:25,600
However, year 41, 42, just like in the EA agreement, they'll get the difference between 39 and 40.

977
01:22:26,580 --> 01:22:29,920
There is, there is some question that has been given about.

978
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:51,420
We want to support person, move from one support position to a next within the district, are they given those full years of experience, and that's clarified in this year's language that, if you've been in the district, say, cafeteria, server for 30 years, and you move into a teacher's aid position, you get to take those 30 years of experience with you into that new position.

979
01:22:51,420 --> 01:22:56,500
So those are kind of the big the big changes I did felt a mention isn't a previous one

980
01:22:56,500 --> 01:23:01,900
but it is an SBO agreement as well that both those organizations but the SBO NEA had now

981
01:23:01,900 --> 01:23:07,100
being contractually invited to attend the superintendent's communication teams meetings as part part

982
01:23:07,100 --> 01:23:11,880
of extending communication to both those organizations throughout the year so not that they were

983
01:23:11,880 --> 01:23:17,920
never not invited and this just really formalizes that they are welcome and invited to attend.

984
01:23:19,260 --> 01:23:24,380
Motion by Willow Joe do I have a second second by Tory any other discussion?

985
01:23:25,160 --> 01:23:28,440
All of us in favor. Hi, all of us posed

986
01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:35,740
Motion carry I didn't Sam Sesto has already approved that and now the board is approved at that one's a done deal for sure

987
01:23:36,400 --> 01:23:39,460

988
01:23:39,460 --> 01:23:40,740
