1
00:00:03,500 --> 00:00:33,420
All right, thanks everyone for joining today. We'll begin by identifying those who are here from the board. We have myself Austin Anderson, Lindsey Owen, Keith Powers. Absin is Rex Galbraith and Paul Baltas. Hopefully they'll join us here soon. We'll also now open the floor for public comments. Public comments need to be limited to three minutes per speaker. Please state your name for the record.

2
00:00:33,420 --> 00:00:36,380
before you begin. So that floor is open now.

3
00:00:39,690 --> 00:00:45,170
With no public comments we are going to be adjusting the

4
00:00:45,170 --> 00:00:51,570
agenda slightly to be more efficient and with the absence of a couple of board members. I'll call

5
00:00:51,570 --> 00:00:57,230
those out as we go through. First we'll be very standard though is we need to approve the board

6
00:00:57,230 --> 00:01:05,690
minutes from January 8th and January 16th governing board meetings. These were sent out for review beforehand

7
00:01:06,390 --> 00:01:15,390
As all of you are able to look those over, but are there any corrections, discussion or comments around those board minutes before we approve them?

8
00:01:16,670 --> 00:01:24,330
I've had the chance to read over them quickly. I see no corrections or questions about January 8th.

9
00:01:24,330 --> 00:01:29,890
Okay, so I can move that we approve of meeting minutes for January 8th, 2026.

10
00:01:30,850 --> 00:01:31,470
I was second.

11
00:01:32,010 --> 00:01:34,770
Okay, all in favor say aye.

12
00:01:35,150 --> 00:01:35,610
Aye.

13
00:01:36,190 --> 00:01:36,390
Aye.

14
00:01:36,990 --> 00:01:37,410
All right.

15
00:01:37,630 --> 00:01:38,590
Motion passes.

16
00:01:39,590 --> 00:01:45,330
I believe did we have a January 16th governing board answer as well or just the 8th?

17
00:01:45,330 --> 00:01:47,430
I see January 19th.

18
00:01:47,430 --> 00:01:47,630
Yes.

19
00:01:48,290 --> 00:01:48,530
Oh, sorry.

20
00:01:48,890 --> 00:01:49,410
19th.

21
00:01:49,430 --> 00:01:49,530
Yeah.

22
00:01:49,790 --> 00:01:50,490
My bad there.

23
00:01:50,770 --> 00:01:51,390
Typo there.

24
00:01:51,410 --> 00:01:56,230
So we have the January 19th governing board minutes that we need to approve.

25
00:01:56,230 --> 00:01:59,150
As soon as before, hopefully you'll look those over.

26
00:01:59,450 --> 00:02:01,610
Were there any comments or corrections?

27
00:02:04,490 --> 00:02:05,350
None for me.

28
00:02:06,470 --> 00:02:06,990
Neither.

29
00:02:09,290 --> 00:02:12,250
So I'll move that we approve the word meeting minutes

30
00:02:12,250 --> 00:02:15,210
for January 19th, 20th, 20th, 20th, 6th.

31
00:02:16,150 --> 00:02:17,310
Okay, all in favor say aye.

32
00:02:18,070 --> 00:02:18,210
Aye.

33
00:02:18,870 --> 00:02:20,410
Aye, motion passes.

34
00:02:20,950 --> 00:02:21,490
Thank you.

35
00:02:22,670 --> 00:02:25,370
Next up is we're gonna give the time order gracing here

36
00:02:25,370 --> 00:02:27,770
for a few minutes to give us an executive director update.

37
00:02:27,770 --> 00:02:35,510
Yeah, thanks everybody. I did send that over to Austin. I think the most exciting thing

38
00:02:35,510 --> 00:02:39,850
always are what our students are up to. And Matt, your campus kind of got showcased in

39
00:02:39,850 --> 00:02:46,350
my update this month with robotics and ballroom knocking out of the park. I don't know if

40
00:02:46,350 --> 00:02:52,510
any of you were able to go see the drama production newsies that they just had on. But again, full

41
00:02:52,510 --> 00:02:59,370
house every night. What these students are capable of is just absolutely incredible and then the other

42
00:02:59,370 --> 00:03:05,290
big item of note that I hope you saw in there was our enrollment update. Lots of good trending

43
00:03:05,290 --> 00:03:12,330
upward especially for our St. George campus down here which is very encouraging. Vineyard as well

44
00:03:12,330 --> 00:03:19,730
adding a couple classes so we are excited for the direction that our enrollment is looking for next

45
00:03:19,730 --> 00:03:26,290
school year. I love it. Yeah, um, Terry's going to be posted on the St. George and we have

46
00:03:26,290 --> 00:03:32,870
what two or three families that are starting next week after. Yes. Awesome. I don't know

47
00:03:32,870 --> 00:03:37,210
if it's just the time of year where people are moving, but well, we'll certainly take you.

48
00:03:37,290 --> 00:03:42,950
Come on. Yeah. All day. That's great. Yeah. Um, things grace it an awesome job to everyone.

49
00:03:43,150 --> 00:03:47,670
I know it's not easy. A lot of work goes behind the scenes, but thanks for making it run efficiently

50
00:03:47,670 --> 00:03:48,570
and run them well.

51
00:03:50,810 --> 00:03:56,890
Next up is we have PTIF accounts approval on the agenda. Once again,

52
00:03:56,890 --> 00:04:01,930
this is set out for everyone's review beforehand. But, buddy, you're graceing. I want to head over

53
00:04:01,930 --> 00:04:06,270
to you for a moment, just to kind of give us a little bit of background on what this is and

54
00:04:06,270 --> 00:04:11,830
get some context before we vote on it. Yeah, so that's just a separate account that we have where

55
00:04:12,310 --> 00:04:16,590
we keep certain funds. So we just need to update and change the users on that.

56
00:04:17,490 --> 00:04:23,090
Okay. Easy. Anything else, buddy? You like to add a slightly unmootive risk?

57
00:04:23,690 --> 00:04:26,890
No, no. That's it. She covered it. Everything's up.

58
00:04:27,490 --> 00:04:36,110
I have a question. Can you maybe define a little bit more about what certain funds means?

59
00:04:37,350 --> 00:04:43,730
So for example, the money that we received from the ERC that came at the end of December,

60
00:04:43,730 --> 00:04:53,310
That's an account where we where he housed all of that had a cruise good interest there, and it's just a safe place to keep large sums that we like to keep to safe.

61
00:04:54,910 --> 00:04:56,630
Okay, thank you.

62
00:04:57,270 --> 00:04:58,430
Good question, Keith.

63
00:04:59,590 --> 00:05:01,450
Any other questions or comments?

64
00:05:02,930 --> 00:05:04,310
If not, okay, go ahead.

65
00:05:04,310 --> 00:05:10,970
then I don't when was that email sent with that information that should have

66
00:05:10,970 --> 00:05:17,070
been sent out yes or sorry this morning oh that two hours ago did you not

67
00:05:17,070 --> 00:05:26,810
receive it I am not seeing it no me either about financial okay let me I can

68
00:05:26,810 --> 00:05:31,510
shoot that over really quick yeah you wouldn't mind I'd like to take a look at it

69
00:05:31,510 --> 00:05:32,610
Yep, absolutely.

70
00:05:39,260 --> 00:05:41,440
Did you guys receive an email from me this morning

71
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:42,160
just making sure?

72
00:05:42,620 --> 00:05:42,780
I guess.

73
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,660
OK, also make sure it wasn't just broken altogether.

74
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,880
No, I got the documents for the board meeting,

75
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:51,780
but I just see that one.

76
00:05:52,380 --> 00:05:54,020
OK, I might not have included it, to be honest.

77
00:05:54,420 --> 00:05:55,860
So that might be why.

78
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,100
Well, so I have anything going on, Austin.

79
00:05:59,620 --> 00:06:01,820
No, everybody is the same, right?

80
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,080
And if we need to table this for next time or grace,

81
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,500
If you want to share your screen, if you have it, we can put it in.

82
00:06:08,840 --> 00:06:11,040
I'm just going to send this over to you quickly.

83
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:11,760
Yep.

84
00:06:11,860 --> 00:06:12,000
Okay.

85
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,020
Come in your way right now.

86
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:16,360
Lovely.

87
00:06:21,890 --> 00:06:22,210
Yep.

88
00:06:29,020 --> 00:06:30,480
Just saw that come through.

89
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,300
Oh, I'd like to take a look really quick.

90
00:06:36,270 --> 00:06:40,410
It just requires a board vote to change any of the users on that.

91
00:06:40,970 --> 00:06:41,190
Okay.

92
00:06:42,410 --> 00:06:42,750
It

93
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,540
looks like we're adding Steve and Wade Grayson, Matt Laveau.

94
00:07:08,580 --> 00:07:09,500
That looks good to me.

95
00:07:13,730 --> 00:07:15,290
I can understand it

96
00:07:18,710 --> 00:07:23,070
pretty straightforward there straightforward. Yes, thanks for sending

97
00:07:23,070 --> 00:07:28,790
over Grayson. Yeah, thank you. I'll hear a motion to approve that if we have one.

98
00:07:29,610 --> 00:07:37,210
All motion to approve that the PTIF signer changes as discussed. I'll second that motion.

99
00:07:37,210 --> 00:07:39,550
Okay, all in favor say aye.

100
00:07:39,910 --> 00:07:40,430
Aye.

101
00:07:40,590 --> 00:07:40,850
Aye.

102
00:07:42,130 --> 00:07:42,830
Motion passes.

103
00:07:44,050 --> 00:07:44,570
Great.

104
00:07:44,950 --> 00:07:48,170
Next up is the Land Trust Final Reports.

105
00:07:49,170 --> 00:07:52,170
Once again, these are sent over this morning for everyone's review.

106
00:07:52,650 --> 00:07:53,610
Those weren't.

107
00:07:53,710 --> 00:07:53,830
But.

108
00:07:53,910 --> 00:07:54,830
No, we're not sent over.

109
00:07:55,070 --> 00:07:55,150
Okay.

110
00:07:56,150 --> 00:07:57,750
But go ahead, Gracie.

111
00:07:57,810 --> 00:07:59,770
Yeah, we're just going to turn it over to the principals.

112
00:07:59,990 --> 00:08:02,030
We're going to let them go in rapid succession.

113
00:08:02,030 --> 00:08:07,190
And I will share my screen and let them check in with you.

114
00:08:07,190 --> 00:08:10,210
you about their goals and funds that were spent.

115
00:08:11,110 --> 00:08:17,050
So let me, apparently I can't, you can't minimize your screen

116
00:08:17,050 --> 00:08:18,690
while you're recording on Zoom.

117
00:08:19,890 --> 00:08:26,590
So let me pull this up and I will share over so you

118
00:08:27,390 --> 00:08:34,930
can follow along and we'll let Sherlyn take it away first.

119
00:08:34,930 --> 00:08:42,850
Can everybody see this? Okay. Yeah. All right. All right. So this is our

120
00:08:42,850 --> 00:08:52,650
final report for FPA 1 and FPA 2. We actually do it together here. So our

121
00:08:52,650 --> 00:08:58,710
the Atlantis money for our campus was used for a partial salary of our

122
00:08:58,710 --> 00:09:04,770
literacy coach, books, curriculum and general supplies there. And so you'll see

123
00:09:04,770 --> 00:09:11,650
that listed, and if you want to scroll down, I put all of our things in one goal, so we

124
00:09:11,650 --> 00:09:17,650
did our science, language arts, and math all under the first goal, and we were using

125
00:09:17,650 --> 00:09:26,990
our rice assessment to evaluate. And we're hoping for a 3% increase in all of those subjects.

126
00:09:26,990 --> 00:09:37,930
in and this is from 2022 to 2023 school year to the 2023 2024 school year are the scores

127
00:09:37,930 --> 00:09:43,530
that we're looking at. And luckily we did increase that year in third and fourth grade

128
00:09:43,530 --> 00:09:51,670
in language arts, but we did increase in fifth grade in math. We increased in all four subjects

129
00:09:51,670 --> 00:10:00,090
All three grades by 4% but fifth grade increased by 7% in that and in science we

130
00:10:00,090 --> 00:10:07,530
decreased by 2% in those things. So we're going to continue working on our

131
00:10:07,530 --> 00:10:13,370
proficiency and just raising those scores. But we're happy to have Lancaster.

132
00:10:13,830 --> 00:10:18,430
We use the money and it is very helpful to get the curriculum that we need.

133
00:10:21,030 --> 00:10:21,470
Absolutely.

134
00:10:22,250 --> 00:10:25,830
So is this, sorry, I don't think I scroll down enough, but you just went over this goal

135
00:10:25,830 --> 00:10:26,090
here.

136
00:10:26,290 --> 00:10:26,390
Yep.

137
00:10:26,890 --> 00:10:27,010
Okay.

138
00:10:27,110 --> 00:10:31,770
Go number one right there, and then those are the measurements using the rise.

139
00:10:32,410 --> 00:10:35,930
Then you'll see our action plan of what we spent everything on.

140
00:10:36,390 --> 00:10:40,670
And if you keep scrolling, yep,

141
00:10:42,690 --> 00:10:46,090
that's still, you'll see, yeah, and there's goal number two.

142
00:10:46,610 --> 00:10:51,330
There was the portion in there where I actually wrote, it's under the measurement portion

143
00:10:51,330 --> 00:10:55,410
then it will say please choose one of the following and under there has the

144
00:10:55,410 --> 00:11:01,910
report of the percentages. So goal number two is the secondary campus.

145
00:11:02,270 --> 00:11:04,110
That was that we're Matt starts. That's me. Yep.

146
00:11:04,590 --> 00:11:08,550
You're able to be with everybody today. I hope you're all having a great day.

147
00:11:09,310 --> 00:11:13,170
I have two goals. Good job, Sherlyn. Do you explain land trust really well?

148
00:11:13,810 --> 00:11:17,890
So I'll just jump right into my two goals. The first one you'll see there is like

149
00:11:17,890 --> 00:11:23,830
sure lens. We're trying to increase proficiency level on the end of year rise assessment for high school

150
00:11:23,830 --> 00:11:28,990
and middle school. High school, it's called Utah Spire Plus, but it'll change to rise next year.

151
00:11:30,430 --> 00:11:36,490
So I'm focusing in on English math and science and then grace and beauty and scroll down a little

152
00:11:36,490 --> 00:11:44,310
bit for me. So we have many different subjects that are tested. So three tests per grade, six, seven,

153
00:11:44,310 --> 00:11:51,310
eight for middle school and we also have some eighth graders that are in secondary

154
00:11:51,310 --> 00:11:56,790
math one which is a high school level math class. So essentially we had 10 tests

155
00:11:56,790 --> 00:12:02,110
and seven of our 10 we reached our goal or exceeded it which was really awesome

156
00:12:02,110 --> 00:12:08,210
to see kudos to the teachers all their hard work so we felt like it was time well

157
00:12:08,210 --> 00:12:14,150
spent there's a lot of data in there that you can kind of look at that and see

158
00:12:14,150 --> 00:12:22,590
see the increases. One grade such grade math increased by two, so it didn't quite reach

159
00:12:22,590 --> 00:12:28,490
our goal, but they still increased. So super exciting to see and a huge celebration for

160
00:12:28,490 --> 00:12:35,510
us from last year's end of your testing. With the high school, it's a little bit different

161
00:12:35,510 --> 00:12:43,570
for ninth and tenth graders. We only had two subjects that increased, that met our goal.

162
00:12:43,570 --> 00:12:46,190
So definitely focus for us there.

163
00:12:46,590 --> 00:12:47,870
You can see the data.

164
00:12:48,530 --> 00:12:51,310
We increased in our 10th grade reading.

165
00:12:51,990 --> 00:12:55,350
And we increased in our 10th grade science.

166
00:12:57,330 --> 00:12:59,930
So for high school, we met two out of the six.

167
00:13:01,790 --> 00:13:04,650
So yeah, that's a first goal. Any questions with that one?

168
00:13:06,980 --> 00:13:08,800
Is I'll go ahead.

169
00:13:09,220 --> 00:13:14,780
I was I noticed the trend with the ELA rise test in sixth and seventh.

170
00:13:14,780 --> 00:13:19,740
But those decreased, whereas everything else looked pretty strong for those grades.

171
00:13:20,860 --> 00:13:24,340
Do we know what might be the contributing factors there?

172
00:13:25,460 --> 00:13:26,780
We're still digging into that.

173
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:32,680
The rise for English actually changed a little bit this past year, and we actually didn't

174
00:13:32,680 --> 00:13:38,920
get those end-of-year scores until I want to say February, January.

175
00:13:40,020 --> 00:13:43,120
So I think they made some tweaks in that test.

176
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:50,240
So I'm curious to know, yeah, kind of how much those tweaks affected us. We're still looking at that. That's a great question.

177
00:13:52,830 --> 00:13:53,830
Any other questions?

178
00:13:57,810 --> 00:14:02,730
Yeah, if you can scroll down a little bit more for me, Grayson. My second goal has to do with graduation rate.

179
00:14:04,070 --> 00:14:09,310
So our goal for, yeah, just keep going down a little right there.

180
00:14:09,310 --> 00:14:14,670
So, for fine arts and robotics programs, so we set aside land trust monies to help support

181
00:14:14,670 --> 00:14:15,310
those programs.

182
00:14:16,450 --> 00:14:19,870
And our indicator was graduation rate for students that are in those programs.

183
00:14:21,250 --> 00:14:25,510
And our goal is 100% graduation rate for those kids.

184
00:14:26,050 --> 00:14:28,450
And Grayson begins to grow down a little bit more for me.

185
00:14:28,630 --> 00:14:31,070
You'll see that we met that goal this past year.

186
00:14:31,890 --> 00:14:37,730
It shows you 23, 24, but 100% for all students and 100% for fine arts and robotics.

187
00:14:38,230 --> 00:14:41,990
so that was the previous year and then the land trust money that this was for

188
00:14:41,990 --> 00:14:48,270
24 to 25. We met our goal for all the kids and fine arts and robotics. So our

189
00:14:48,270 --> 00:14:54,050
programs are so good. Coaches teachers are doing amazing work. I know Grayson

190
00:14:54,050 --> 00:14:58,930
commented on a few of those today and he saw some end results for their programs

191
00:14:58,930 --> 00:14:59,970
and her report to you.

192
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:29,540
Nope, but really helpful to have this money to help support them and continue to help kids have a place where they succeed and they feel really connected to the school and it helps out a lot. So any questions on that goal? Well said, it's hard to go up from 100% Matt. You guys are always hit so. Yeah, well, I think Keith, buddy and Matt will all tell you that our graduation rate something we've always been very proud of. Exactly.

193
00:15:29,540 --> 00:15:34,560
Okay, thanks. That's all for me. All right. You're about to see some cute kids.

194
00:15:36,740 --> 00:15:39,580
Oh, my gosh. That is adorable.

195
00:15:40,340 --> 00:15:40,900
Expectations.

196
00:15:43,340 --> 00:15:59,000
Okay, Carrie. Hi, everybody. So I just made a summary of what's on the Land Trust website. So I can provide that information in a different format if you'd like.

197
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,380
But this is just a summary of it.

198
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:04,180
Happy to report.

199
00:16:05,180 --> 00:16:13,660
Yep, happy to report that our reading assessments from the 2024-2025 school year,

200
00:16:14,460 --> 00:16:17,380
the students K through 5 increased by 6%.

201
00:16:17,980 --> 00:16:20,440
Our goal was 3%, so we doubled that.

202
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,800
And then in math, we went up by 18% school wide.

203
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:31,580
So that was huge success, really, really good learning

204
00:16:31,580 --> 00:16:34,440
progress for our students and math and reading.

205
00:16:36,140 --> 00:16:41,180
Our second goal, we base this off of the rise assessments

206
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,600
for our fourth and fifth grade students.

207
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,200
Unfortunately, we did not meet this goal.

208
00:16:46,660 --> 00:16:49,080
We were hoping to increase by 3%.

209
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,960
Instead, we actually decreased by 5%.

210
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:57,520
So we have, and we knew these scores coming into this school year.

211
00:16:57,740 --> 00:17:05,360
So we have set a really good plan at the beginning of the year to try and help support these students in science.

212
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:07,940
The teachers are working really, really hard.

213
00:17:08,740 --> 00:17:15,880
We've been doing some simulations and some benchmarking and pre and post tests on our science.

214
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:24,580
So we're really hoping for good results this year when they finish out their tests at the end of April 1st of May.

215
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,920
Yeah, what's the secret sauce? I mean, 5-6% that's great.

216
00:17:31,300 --> 00:17:40,160
20% is significant. What is, can you identify what differences you guys did or what happened? That's incredible.

217
00:17:41,580 --> 00:17:43,580
Oh, you mean in the math?

218
00:17:43,580 --> 00:17:46,400
Yeah, you're 18% increase in math.

219
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:46,900
Yeah.

220
00:17:46,980 --> 00:17:51,720
So I contribute that to, first of all, excellent teachers.

221
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:57,080
We have amazing, really dedicated teachers across the district.

222
00:17:57,360 --> 00:18:00,600
But of course, I favor our vineyard teachers a little.

223
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,660
Just some good instruction, also progress monitoring.

224
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,620
The teachers have been doing a great job.

225
00:18:08,620 --> 00:18:16,360
uh, showing up those facts, basic facts. That's really where we're seeing the most growth,

226
00:18:17,340 --> 00:18:21,820
because the computation automatically goes up once the students know those basic

227
00:18:22,460 --> 00:18:28,020
foundational math skills. Did you guys implement something where you were

228
00:18:28,020 --> 00:18:34,840
following up more often, like you're saying, or is this just kind of a flash in the pan?

229
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:46,760
No, we were actually seeing really good growth in math right now from just this school year 25, 20, 26, middle of the year is really good growth.

230
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:53,400
So whatever they, whatever our teachers were doing last year, we're just replicating that this year because it was so successful.

231
00:18:55,440 --> 00:19:02,640
Really, I think we've just been using the materials that are provided to us by the state to, as practice,

232
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:08,340
is to make sure that these kids, when they do these assessments, it's not something new.

233
00:19:08,980 --> 00:19:10,560
It's not a surprise to them.

234
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,040
We're using those materials and we're seeing great results.

235
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:19,760
I mean, there's other things that we use to help support that growth and learning, but

236
00:19:20,580 --> 00:19:25,020
really, it's just making sure that kids are, they know what to expect when they're being

237
00:19:25,020 --> 00:19:30,180
assessed, these high stakes test, they know what it is.

238
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:31,680
They're not worried about it.

239
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,140
It's not like, oh, you've got to do so, so good on this.

240
00:19:34,380 --> 00:19:36,280
You know, it's all rating on this test.

241
00:19:36,780 --> 00:19:38,160
We want them to feel comfortable.

242
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,640
We want them to feel confident in taking the test.

243
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,100
And do you feel like this 18%?

244
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,140
If you know what the topic would be great,

245
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:48,900
if not, it's okay.

246
00:19:49,460 --> 00:19:53,600
How does this compare our overall assessment to statewide?

247
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,560
Was this 18% correction?

248
00:19:55,980 --> 00:19:57,720
Because we were flying a little bit low.

249
00:19:58,120 --> 00:20:00,340
Or is this something that we're just crushing

250
00:20:00,340 --> 00:20:03,900
going above and beyond. It's just such an outrageous number. It's a awesome.

251
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:13,420
Yeah, we are crushing it. We've seen significant growth year after year from our students here

252
00:20:13,420 --> 00:20:26,280
have been here. I would say that we're always above the state in ELA and math when you're comparing

253
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:36,140
it to statewide. But we have a very high proficiency of students' growth. And I would say particularly

254
00:20:36,140 --> 00:20:42,940
in math our third grade students performed really, really well. And these are the accadians' tests.

255
00:20:43,820 --> 00:20:50,240
It's not rise testing. So typically students do test a little bit higher using accadians' assessments

256
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:56,440
then they do rise assessments. However, we saw translation in our third, specifically our third

257
00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:03,280
grade students performing extraordinary well on the rise, math testing. And I think it's due just

258
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:12,340
to the the benchmarking and the practicing and the student monitoring during this school year that

259
00:21:12,340 --> 00:21:19,260
help them test well. Yeah you are truly you know I mean to call up you

260
00:21:19,260 --> 00:21:23,580
drill down on it but if we have that big of a jump I just I want to be able to

261
00:21:23,580 --> 00:21:26,520
spread that through all the other campuses if you guys are doing something

262
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,480
right let's put it in everywhere so it's why it's kind of asking if you can

263
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:36,300
identify that but what we'll done Kerry that's so impressive sure is thank you

264
00:21:38,790 --> 00:21:42,170
Carrie, all right, Brandon.

265
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:51,980
Okay, so starting off while Grayson's pulling that up, just with our budget, you know,

266
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:57,840
we did spend every penny of that budget and just like Sherlyn and Carrie, you know,

267
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:05,840
it's all going towards just our standard curriculum we use every year and with a couple of supplemental

268
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:11,100
programs that go with that as well. So we spent all of our land trust money as

269
00:22:11,100 --> 00:22:19,000
expected for that fiscal year land trust. Our goal was to increase the number of

270
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:26,620
students on grade level in reading by 2% math by 4% in science by 3%. And so

271
00:22:26,620 --> 00:22:31,840
looking at those starting with reading we met that target goal and increased the

272
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:36,180
of students on grade level, according to Acadians rise,

273
00:22:37,620 --> 00:22:40,000
or sorry, Acadians testing.

274
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,720
And then, and we just compared from beginning of year

275
00:22:44,180 --> 00:22:46,300
to end of year within that school year.

276
00:22:46,780 --> 00:22:51,180
And so we were able to increase that throughout the school year.

277
00:22:51,660 --> 00:22:53,600
For math and our 4% increase,

278
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,820
we actually fell short of that goal.

279
00:22:56,340 --> 00:22:58,720
We actually just maintained the same percent.

280
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:07,100
So we didn't see a decrease in the number of students at proficiency or on grade level there, we ended up maintaining.

281
00:23:07,780 --> 00:23:14,480
So Grayson, that's page three and I think now I'm kind of transitioning into page four.

282
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:22,760
And then for science, that one we did not meet either.

283
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:35,760
We didn't hit that 3% improvement and this was compared to rise summative testing from the 2022-2023 school year to the 2023-2024 school year.

284
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:42,180
So we actually decreased, I think it was 2% on that overall proficiency.

285
00:23:42,860 --> 00:23:47,740
The only two grade levels that do test science rise is fourth grade and fifth grade.

286
00:23:47,740 --> 00:23:57,860
So we didn't hit that benchmark goal. We sat there like Carrie mentioned she's been great enough to ensure

287
00:23:57,860 --> 00:24:03,040
Linda too because they've seen, you know, success in different areas too. They've been, you know,

288
00:24:03,120 --> 00:24:09,640
sharing across campuses where they've been seen successes as well. And this current school year,

289
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:18,120
we've kind of revamped and retooled several systems to see hopefully better results moving forward.

290
00:24:18,700 --> 00:24:25,380
While, yes, along with what Kerry said, we do see our students performing better than the state

291
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:36,920
percentages show. We still think we can achieve higher than we are. So we've retooled some systems

292
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:42,620
this school year and comparing so far are beginning of year data to middle of year data.

293
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:49,840
Our middle of year data has never looked better than it has this year. So really encouraging

294
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:55,320
things and we attribute that like Kerry said to awesome teachers that are willing to just do what's

295
00:24:55,320 --> 00:25:01,740
best for students. Our paraprofessionals have stepped up in a huge way this year and how they're

296
00:25:01,740 --> 00:25:08,540
able to support teachers and students as well and it's just it's just been in all all hands-in

297
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:13,560
doing what's best for the students and then you know between Provo and Vineyard and

298
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:20,600
and their teachers and their administrators sharing their best practices with us as well.

299
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:25,220
I'm really excited to see what our interview results look like this year.

300
00:25:27,670 --> 00:25:34,930
Great, best we ever had mid-year, contribute to the teachers is all the credit, so yeah,

301
00:25:35,090 --> 00:25:35,750
we recruit well.

302
00:25:35,990 --> 00:25:36,350
That's awesome.

303
00:25:36,670 --> 00:25:36,890
They do.

304
00:25:37,230 --> 00:25:38,070
Yeah, they're doing awesome.

305
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,180
Hey, I think that's everybody.

306
00:25:44,700 --> 00:25:45,060
Awesome.

307
00:25:45,620 --> 00:25:46,800
Well, well done, everyone.

308
00:25:47,220 --> 00:25:48,360
Those increases are fantastic.

309
00:25:48,820 --> 00:25:50,360
It goes to show the hard work you're putting in.

310
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,280
We have good people who care about the children and their educations.

311
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:54,480
Thank you.

312
00:25:55,300 --> 00:25:55,440
Truly.

313
00:25:55,440 --> 00:26:02,600
So, um, this will need a motion and a vote to approve these final reports.

314
00:26:03,100 --> 00:26:03,300
Okay.

315
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,760
We have a motion to go ahead Keith.

316
00:26:07,420 --> 00:26:09,060
I'll make that motion that we approve.

317
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:10,660
Excuse me.

318
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,620
The principal reports as stated.

319
00:26:15,620 --> 00:26:16,640
I second.

320
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:18,720
All in favor say aye.

321
00:26:19,380 --> 00:26:19,700
Aye.

322
00:26:20,620 --> 00:26:20,740
Aye.

323
00:26:22,180 --> 00:26:23,340
Motion passes.

324
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:24,660
Perfect.

325
00:26:24,660 --> 00:26:32,840
Perfect. So from here, we're going to push the academic calendar approval to April's meeting.

326
00:26:34,020 --> 00:26:39,380
Instead, we're going to jump to the financial services RFP. There are some

327
00:26:39,380 --> 00:26:46,700
items we need to discuss about this in a closed session. So we will need a motion then to move

328
00:26:46,700 --> 00:26:53,740
to closed session if it's getting appropriate. Yeah, all motion that we move to a closed session.

329
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:59,040
Okay, and this needs to be a roll call vote to move to closed session.

330
00:27:00,220 --> 00:27:01,140
Lindsay Owen.

331
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:01,980
Yes.

332
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:03,500
Keep powers.

333
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:04,620
Yes.

334
00:27:05,340 --> 00:27:06,120
Austin Anderson.

335
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:07,100
Yes.

336
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,100
Okay, let's go ahead and stop.
