So Miss Cassie, last 153 00:14:28,870 --> 00:14:35,990 name, just escaped me, majors, who is currently sitting in that role. She serves 154 00:14:35,990 --> 00:14:41,300 on Liberty Hill ISD board and then Brian Halluebeck, who is on the 155 00:14:41,300 --> 00:14:54,180 ISD board, so we can open this up for discussion. I'm open to emotion. This person, if you remember, is 156 00:14:54,180 --> 00:14:59,740 representing Region 13 as of TASB Board of Director in our 157 00:14:59,740 --> 00:14:59,920 So, I'll just take a look at this. 158 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:12,220 In those types of things. Any? I would like to nominate Brian Hollaback for consideration. Motion made 159 00:15:12,220 --> 00:15:26,200 by Miss English. Is there a second? Second. Second, fine, Mr. Owens. So, any other conversation 160 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:35,440 thoughts, questions? All in. So did you have something? Would it be prudent to I think on the 161 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,100 form it actually had a alternative? 162 00:15:42,220 --> 00:15:44,340 That you might be looking at the yeah. 163 00:15:46,940 --> 00:15:48,180 Okay, all in favor? 164 00:15:49,820 --> 00:15:58,180 Motion passes and I have of the form that I'll fill out to officially endorse Mr. Hall 165 00:15:58,180 --> 00:15:58,460 you back. 166 00:16:01,310 --> 00:16:10,670 All right, and to James's next question, we also have the TASB conference 167 00:16:10,670 --> 00:16:17,630 at the end of September, so we need to name a delegate and an alternate for the delegate 168 00:16:17,630 --> 00:16:23,570 assembly. I think James, were you the delegate last year in Felix? Were you the alternate? 169 00:16:23,570 --> 00:16:30,090 I was the ultimate. Yeah. I mean, we kind of all try to rotate if that is a desire. 170 00:16:32,510 --> 00:16:36,650 But I am, you know, open to 171 00:16:36,650 --> 00:16:41,870 a nomination for a delegate. And you can nominate yourself. 172 00:16:53,670 --> 00:16:58,530 James. I don't see anyone jumping through jumping over 173 00:16:58,530 --> 00:17:04,870 hopes to get this. I really did enjoy being the delegate last last year.

So we'll have a June 10th of 24 substantial completion 340 00:34:20,780 --> 00:34:28,980 We should say that isn't to say that we may still be doing some things in the campus right before, right up until school starts. 341 00:34:29,300 --> 00:34:34,820 Angus on quest, do we have a set date that we will, that we think that we will be given our- 342 00:34:34,820 --> 00:34:42,740 I do not as of today, we're waiting to schedule the final, the fire final, where they go in and they test every device, they smell test every device. 343 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:49,380 We've got a temporary certificate on occupancy, which means it's safe enough to put furniture and 344 00:34:49,380 --> 00:34:55,400 people in essentially but the what gives us that final fire is for them to go 345 00:34:55,400 --> 00:35:01,240 and test every device it takes a long time and then we've got to get the 346 00:35:01,240 --> 00:35:06,500 state elevator inspector which will be Thursday I believe. Also state health 347 00:35:06,500 --> 00:35:11,420 inspection for the kitchen. Thank you. It does take a little bit of time to 348 00:35:11,420 --> 00:35:14,960 tidy all those parts of your work with outside agencies and so you're 349 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,720 Sometimes you become up there time, not on our time. 350 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,720 If it was our time, we would knock that out. 351 00:35:19,980 --> 00:35:22,340 And so sometimes just, you know, storms coming out, 352 00:35:22,340 --> 00:35:24,700 it's next Monday, but we're really pushing to make sure 353 00:35:24,700 --> 00:35:26,060 we get all this wrapped up. 354 00:35:26,060 --> 00:35:28,240 So we don't believe that that's going to cause any delays 355 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,800 is just that construction can be a little bit messy at times 356 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:34,240 when you're really trying to close out. 357 00:35:34,420 --> 00:35:37,100 Every single trade to make sure everything's perfect. 358 00:35:37,420 --> 00:35:39,440 Well, that effect having like those students go 359 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:40,300 to the campus, I believe. 360 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:42,880 With that TCO, we're covered to have the students 361 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:43,340 in the building. 362 00:35:43,340 --> 00:35:54,020 Yes, and we're we're we've given task be everything they've needed to so when we do get the substantial completion document we'll immediately go under their insurance 363 00:35:54,620 --> 00:35:57,220 For that campus as well. Perfect. Thank you 364 00:35:58,080 --> 00:35:58,540 Felix 365 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:05,740 Mr. Cardwell I have two questions. What's the good remind us? What's the capacity for that school Lee 366 00:36:06,460 --> 00:36:11,120 Martinez in attendance, so we're looking at a hundred 367 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:21,580 I think it's, I want to say, it's six week old to Pre-K for the little hippos area, and then for the elementary school it's 850. 368 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:22,080 Okay. 369 00:36:22,580 --> 00:36:24,920 So let's go down three, five years on a road. 370 00:36:25,340 --> 00:36:32,640 Do we have enough space in that land site to be able to expand that school as we need to down the road? 371 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:36,980 So, I believe we could expand possibly to the north, 372 00:36:37,300 --> 00:36:43,060 essentially you wouldn't want to because then you've got to take on another administration, 373 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:47,760 another librarian, another nurse in order to take the capacity of the students. 374 00:36:47,820 --> 00:36:52,580 That's why they kind of drive to designing those campuses to 850 students 375 00:36:52,580 --> 00:36:56,880 in order to bring in the principals and librarians and nurses 376 00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:00,180 and capture it in order to support that in many students. 377 00:37:01,460 --> 00:37:04,700 So we would look to build a new elementary 378 00:37:04,700 --> 00:37:08,280 if that demographic gets too full, too saturated. 379 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:10,640 I think there's an optimal number 380 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:11,920 that the district would like to. 381 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:13,420 When we start building schools, 382 00:37:13,420 --> 00:37:16,820 we want to design a standard we can associate. 383 00:37:17,380 --> 00:37:20,740 And so we're not having to do different things from one elementary 384 00:37:20,740 --> 00:37:22,400 so we can standardize the design. 385 00:37:22,860 --> 00:37:24,540 We know how many classrooms we want. 386 00:37:24,540 --> 00:37:30,240 What's optimal for that and so then it becomes a more simplified process we're not redesigning school 387 00:37:31,100 --> 00:37:36,040 after school so there's a real this build out of obviously is going to take care of a lot of the 388 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:37,000 temporary 389 00:37:37,720 --> 00:37:41,080 Units that we have at some of our schools because we we won't need them 390 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:47,340 But it's just a sense of being able to have equity across the board for all our kids and make sure that they have the best 391 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,280 premises to be able to do their best work 392 00:37:51,180 --> 00:37:56,340 And just if I can jump in, I think that's where elementary number nine comes in, and 393 00:37:56,340 --> 00:37:59,820 that constant rezoning that we will be doing. 394 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:07,120 But you know, Hado has done a fantastic job in creating equity in our elementary schools 395 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:13,020 and we really love how equitable we have that now and definitely want to continue. 396 00:38:13,900 --> 00:38:17,760 In the district, you know, we have been lots of meetings that have been in our operation. 397 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:23,140 So what are we doing to continue to update our current elementary campuses, keep those facilities at a high level? 398 00:38:23,820 --> 00:38:29,460 And so, we're not making comparisons from one camp, we need a new carpet, we make transition to the flooring, the paint, the walls. 399 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:35,220 When principals ask, we get a list, when we're trying to work through those lists, to make sure we're taking care of those campuses, 400 00:38:35,500 --> 00:38:43,640 as they get a little bit older, we're not deferring any maintenance, we're making sure they're staying in a very high level that the students and teachers are proud of. 401 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:52,080 I guess I'm also going to ask questions about, I guess I don't know, and Farley about the portables. 402 00:38:52,260 --> 00:38:56,780 Are there any movement of portables after we open up Gus on quiz or? 403 00:38:58,020 --> 00:39:01,440 So the portables have been removed from both campuses. 404 00:39:03,140 --> 00:39:10,320 Minus one that's still at HMS only because it had the main electrical run, run into it, that we're still. 405 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:20,560 So we've just got some scourting and some fencing and some earth work to do around the portals at Rae and Cuddle Elementary and Cottonwood Creek. 406 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:39,860 Any other questions? I was just going to ask the work happening at the high school. 407 00:39:39,860 --> 00:39:49,860 I think I know that, well, I believe that part of we had hired somebody who to do, like, 408 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:54,780 videos and bond specifically for our bond projects and keep everybody updated. 409 00:39:55,260 --> 00:40:03,100 So, do you all anticipate something coming out just to update the community about what is happening 410 00:40:03,100 --> 00:40:05,380 over there, where we're at, what's going on? 411 00:40:05,380 --> 00:40:09,620 And maybe that question is more for Ms. Newton. 412 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:15,140 Well, and we can work with Kurt to see what we can do to make sure we're getting something out. 413 00:40:15,240 --> 00:40:21,360 So definitely making sure people are going to know what to do as they go back to school. 414 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:28,620 Well, and not just to know what to do, I think to remind people what is happening over there, what are the projects, 415 00:40:28,620 --> 00:40:38,060 What is all that that they're seeing front facing now happening now and making people aware and seeing our progress? 416 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:45,400 Yeah, I think that is what part of that was like keeping and maybe that's found on our website. 417 00:40:45,540 --> 00:40:48,860 I had an in all fairness looked at the bond project webpage. 418 00:40:48,860 --> 00:40:53,400 Maybe there's a video that explains what is happening over there now already. 419 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:55,880 Yeah, we can work on that. 420 00:40:55,880 --> 00:41:00,680 And so we met Monday with Noel and they really advocated that we wanted to get that information 421 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,000 out as we finished phase two, now we're in phase three. 422 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:07,560 It's a really interesting project because it's, we're going year, but we know we're 423 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:12,040 truly trying to define when we finish one, we can put a ball on this particular area and 424 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:12,820 then move on. 425 00:41:13,180 --> 00:41:16,600 But it looks like we haven't finished it because it's just one rolling construction trailer 426 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:17,100 move, right? 427 00:41:17,240 --> 00:41:22,520 So it's an interesting project to see, like, oh yes, we have finished these choir, let's finish 428 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,660 this out, take pictures, advocate that, and we'll get those students in there. 429 00:41:25,660 --> 00:41:31,260 And what a great way to keep our community informed about what's happening and keep them, you know, 430 00:41:31,300 --> 00:41:36,320 confident in the work that we're doing with the bond. I mean that was what that position was 431 00:41:37,100 --> 00:41:38,000 essentially for. 432 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:41,620 I'm sorry, James. Did you have another question? Did I miss that? 433 00:41:48,050 --> 00:41:48,810 Sure. Okay. 434 00:41:50,890 --> 00:41:58,530 Just to reiterate, we, I was going to speak to the okay lunch that we did last week 435 00:41:59,250 --> 00:42:05,750 on the 8th and just wanted to bring to y'all's attention that we're going to be prepared 436 00:42:05,750 --> 00:42:12,510 for phase 4b in August, just to remind you of the scope of work that we're doing there, 437 00:42:12,670 --> 00:42:17,550 we're building a new competition gym north of the current competition gym, we're adding 438 00:42:17,550 --> 00:42:23,190 sprinklers in the athletic area, we're going to do a renovation to the kitchen as well as 439 00:42:23,190 --> 00:42:27,810 bring in new equipment for it, we're going to be able to address the 440 00:42:28,430 --> 00:42:33,090 self-ball press box in the renovations for that area we met with Coastal 441 00:42:33,090 --> 00:42:37,750 Plant and Coach Mullins. They're super excited with the scope of work that 442 00:42:37,750 --> 00:42:43,870 we're going to be doing and it's it's kind of what they've coach Mullins said 443 00:42:43,870 --> 00:42:47,250 it's what he's been dreaming of since he's gotten here. We're going to be doing 444 00:42:48,190 --> 00:42:52,930 renovating that automotive building and adding on to it so that there's 445 00:42:52,930 --> 00:43:04,130 It's a five day work area, and then we're going to be doing renovations to the animal science and welding building, and then refreshing the cafeteria courtyard. 446 00:43:11,390 --> 00:43:12,390 I've been working with. 447 00:43:13,010 --> 00:43:23,550 So it's kind of switching gears from an operational standpoint, the side that I've been working with, Mr. Contreras on identifying a specific campus. 448 00:43:24,130 --> 00:43:53,410 We are going to pilot Gus Alquist, it's new, we're working with the principal of Mr. Burns on board with that where we have a system that allows us, it's a card that allows us to do a silent panic alert technology by pushing the card and then it allows us to go to our police department administration and so that allows us to respond appropriately in a timely matter in which the we are going to the teachers, the discretion, campus staff, the discretion, 449 00:43:53,410 --> 00:43:58,910 to make an alert and so we know that during emergencies a timely response is very 450 00:43:58,910 --> 00:44:03,410 important and so we would like to roll this as a pilot program right at the 451 00:44:03,410 --> 00:44:06,750 beginning of the year with a new campus and new staff depending on the 452 00:44:06,750 --> 00:44:11,130 progression and working out the kinks in the bugs and we'd like to move this 453 00:44:11,130 --> 00:44:14,070 process along in order of the following campuses that are listed. 454 00:44:15,150 --> 00:44:19,650 Felix do you have a question on this? Yes Dr. Martin would it be possible for the 455 00:44:19,650 --> 00:44:22,650 the board in segments that we don't have a walking 456 00:44:22,650 --> 00:44:26,590 column to get a visual view of how this works. 457 00:44:27,190 --> 00:44:27,570 Absolutely. 458 00:44:28,110 --> 00:44:29,550 Yeah, we can schedule some time. 459 00:44:29,750 --> 00:44:30,010 Thank you. 460 00:44:30,690 --> 00:44:30,930 Yes, sir. 461 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:34,480 Any question or any questions? 462 00:44:37,130 --> 00:44:39,430 We're very excited regarding the transportation 463 00:44:39,430 --> 00:44:42,310 and the implement of also a pilot program 464 00:44:42,310 --> 00:44:45,890 with the smart tech program with the RFID that allows us. 465 00:44:45,890 --> 00:44:47,850 We're going to start with one campus, and it only has one bus, 466 00:44:47,950 --> 00:44:51,630 but we'll allow to put those RFID, which is a badge associated 467 00:44:51,630 --> 00:44:55,370 with the student and so when the student gets on we know they're on and when the student gets off 468 00:44:55,370 --> 00:44:59,110 when they're off and so I know you've probably been up and informed of this and others. 469 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:27,160 And at each one, and then make sure that when we start looking at larger students, you know, tracking those students off and on the bus for safety purposes, no one they're loaded and unloaded. Because it is a challenge. You know, when we get those 50 kids on the bus, we're like, well, who's on your bus today? Now we know any time, any second who's exactly on that bus, the time to enter the bus, how they left the bus. And so we're really, I know transportation is really excited about rolling into this program for the district. 470 00:45:29,460 --> 00:45:29,920 Right here. 471 00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:34,030 Yeah, I just had a quick question about that. 472 00:45:34,490 --> 00:45:43,310 I was just curious, maybe you don't know yet, but what the plan is for students to not lose those badges, especially the little ones. 473 00:45:43,550 --> 00:45:45,270 That is a very good question. 474 00:45:45,610 --> 00:45:52,870 Traditionally, most of the little ones have a backpack, and so we've kind of typically associated that with be on their backpack on their piece. 475 00:45:53,190 --> 00:46:00,990 And so it is going to take a concerted effort for those particular students to ride at us to have that piece of backpack that's on their backpack. 476 00:46:00,990 --> 00:46:03,010 that we're taking that to and front. 477 00:46:03,470 --> 00:46:05,770 And so we feel that that's one of the components 478 00:46:05,770 --> 00:46:08,810 that we'll really have to focus our energy and effort on. 479 00:46:09,130 --> 00:46:11,530 No badge, the system won't work, obviously. 480 00:46:12,070 --> 00:46:14,490 And so, and we would eventually like it, 481 00:46:14,590 --> 00:46:16,950 would be the integrated system that the same badge can be used 482 00:46:16,950 --> 00:46:20,770 for multiple cross processes across the district. 483 00:46:20,910 --> 00:46:23,430 So we hope to futurely integrate, you know, an ID, 484 00:46:24,190 --> 00:46:26,650 but we'd like to make sure we can do it with the elementary kids. 485 00:46:27,030 --> 00:46:28,990 We understand it does have us limitations, you know. 486 00:46:28,990 --> 00:46:33,530 We've got to keep it's got to keep up with the bat, you know, as we get older, we're not getting our carrying back backs. 487 00:46:33,650 --> 00:46:41,810 And so we'll have to come up with a plan that allows high school and middle school students to clearly have that with them and maintain that at all times. 488 00:46:42,990 --> 00:46:44,270 We do understand those challenges. 489 00:46:45,590 --> 00:46:50,450 I wasn't clicking fast enough, but yeah, it's actually on the syntax that the slide before. 490 00:46:52,790 --> 00:46:58,090 Last year, roughly about this time when we did approve the three year contract. 491 00:46:59,070 --> 00:47:06,010 There was questions on funding it and that there was two sets of grants that we went out for and we were able to get about 492 00:47:06,550 --> 00:47:12,790 160,000 dollars in grants to start this program. Is there been any additional 493 00:47:13,990 --> 00:47:19,290 Information on grants moving forward to help pay for the rest of that contract or is it all just going to come? 494 00:47:19,690 --> 00:47:25,210 I guess out of the safety budget. Do you know of any additional grants that we can go forward to get that? 495 00:47:25,210 --> 00:47:28,290 I think most school districts are currently using cycle one and cycle two 496 00:47:28,290 --> 00:47:31,110 So cycle one funds of most districts have spent those cycle two 497 00:47:31,110 --> 00:47:34,890 It depends on if you've met certain criteria. You can spend those funds. I know 498 00:47:35,610 --> 00:47:39,250 It would be up to speak more. It test exactly to how those funds are being spent 499 00:47:39,250 --> 00:47:45,230 But the state has not authorized any additional funding so as you well know who replacing police officers 500 00:47:45,230 --> 00:47:51,750 But they've increased the alignment however most school districts are taking on any additional expenses and we'll do so 501 00:47:51,750 --> 00:47:56,610 willing to ensure the safety of our students. Unfortunately, the funding is not there for 502 00:47:56,610 --> 00:48:01,570 these really to fund these programs, so we are going to have to do a lot from the local 503 00:48:01,570 --> 00:48:06,550 level.

When asked, when answered with quite an 547 00:51:53,220 --> 00:51:59,600 extremely, we had 39% in the fall, 40% in the spring, but when we answered with 548 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:07,420 somewhat quite an extremely that up the scores. Now I will tell you that I don't 549 00:52:07,420 --> 00:52:11,260 know that this is reflective of some of the recent work because all of the 550 00:52:11,260 --> 00:52:17,280 professional development that has been done this summer, they've done immediate survey results, 551 00:52:17,380 --> 00:52:22,320 which really you get the best result if it's right after a training and the scores have been much higher. 552 00:52:22,620 --> 00:52:25,060 So definitely some great work in that area. 553 00:52:26,020 --> 00:52:30,700 In school and department leadership, how positive is the tone that your leader or 554 00:52:30,700 --> 00:52:35,280 leader set for the culture of the school or department when looking at quite 555 00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:46,140 and extremely, we had 67% in the fall, 70% in the spring, and then when we added in somewhat quite an 556 00:52:46,140 --> 00:52:53,960 extremely, the results went up to 87%. How connected do you fill to other adults at your workplace? 557 00:52:55,260 --> 00:53:02,440 This one, we actually had data because that original pilot that we sent out a year ago asked 558 00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:09,440 the same question. So the percent who answered quite positive or extremely quite connected 559 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:17,060 or extremely connected was 53% in the spring of last year in the fall and 57% this spring 560 00:53:17,060 --> 00:53:22,740 when you factor in somewhat quite an extremely the results increase. 561 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:29,560 And so I think this is a really important question. Overall, how satisfied are you with your job 562 00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:37,980 right now. This is the same pilot so we had three sets of data. Those who said quite satisfied 563 00:53:37,980 --> 00:53:45,280 and those who said extremely satisfied, you can see 55% in the original, went down in the fall 564 00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:52,920 and up to 58% in the spring. If you factor in somewhat quite and extremely, the scores go up. 565 00:53:52,920 --> 00:54:00,740 So, we also did our first student belonging survey and we did this to begin to get some 566 00:54:00,740 --> 00:54:08,640 baseline DEI data and to begin to really see what our students were thinking. 567 00:54:08,940 --> 00:54:12,520 And so, we surveyed elementary students in third through fifth grade. 568 00:54:12,980 --> 00:54:16,060 We surveyed our middle school students and our high school students. 569 00:54:16,900 --> 00:54:21,760 And so, for that elementary, we asked, do you feel included in the activities and events 570 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:25,300 that happened at your school, 84% said they did. 571 00:54:26,060 --> 00:54:29,020 Do you think your classmates accept you for who you are?

627 00:58:24,100 --> 00:58:33,060 42% said yes, and then we asked why did you choose that district, and I bring you the top five reasons here, 628 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:39,420 advancement opportunities, a shorter commute, pay, other, or working conditions. 629 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:43,180 And did you leave HUDO for a career change? 630 00:58:43,700 --> 00:58:51,140 19% said yes, and that might have been advancement, that might have been any different thing. 631 00:58:51,140 --> 00:59:03,240 Would you return to HUDO, 41% said yes with no reservations, and additional 45% said maybe under different circumstances, and only 14% said no. 632 00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:20,360 Would you recommend HUDO to others as a good place to work, 75% said yes, and during your time in HUDO how supportive was your supervisor, 40% said extremely, 31% vary, 8% moderately, 17% slightly. 633 00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:23,480 I and only 4% said they were not supportive. 634 00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:30,940 So we tried to put together our summary of these and I think there are a lot of other 635 00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:36,000 things to learn from the survey but keep findings as far as strengths. 636 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:43,580 We did have a 22% increase in participation, so we did have more representative results. 637 00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:49,120 Our students do feel that they are included in school events that seems to be a highlight. 638 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:56,160 and overall our students believe that their teachers care about them and then all 639 01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:29,980 As far as areas improvement, a large percentage of staff are in that middle, a lot of some watts. The scores went up greatly when we added some watt into that. So I think we need to support staff in moving, you know, toward quiet and extremely. We need to explore opportunities to push up their satisfaction score. But we also really may just need to read tool our survey a little bit to make sure our choices are really clear. 640 01:00:30,660 --> 01:00:34,760 where people are able to make clear choices one way or the other. 641 01:00:35,460 --> 01:00:44,900 Another thing is that I don't think we can just wait until twice a year to measure culture data. 642 01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:52,140 I think we constantly have to be doing check-ins as leaders to see how our staff is doing and 643 01:00:52,140 --> 01:00:56,840 to come up with ways to intervene, and there are tons of ways to accomplish this. 644 01:00:56,840 --> 01:00:59,660 and to always have those checks. 645 01:01:00,260 --> 01:01:02,100 We also need to continue to work 646 01:01:02,100 --> 01:01:04,280 toward differentiated professional development 647 01:01:04,580 --> 01:01:06,280 that we have a great start on, 648 01:01:06,700 --> 01:01:08,920 but we need to have that professional development 649 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:12,980 that staff thinks to be relevant to them. 650 01:01:13,780 --> 01:01:16,340 We need to intentionally create opportunities 651 01:01:16,340 --> 01:01:18,380 for our students to feel a sense of belonging 652 01:01:18,380 --> 01:01:19,720 within our school community. 653 01:01:20,180 --> 01:01:24,200 This is our very first baseline data for the belonging 654 01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:38,940 So we need to measure that data and see if we can, we want all of our students to feel like they belong and we know that some of those answers are about kids growing up but what are things in that that we can control and help kids have better experiences. 655 01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:48,880 We need to enhance the environment so kindness is the expectation and we also need to find ways to help our staff members create connections with their co-workers. 656 01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:54,960 So, I know there are a lot of other areas that we could say we should work on. 657 01:01:56,040 --> 01:02:02,480 And so, this is really the first time we brought data to use straight data, and you can 658 01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,800 see it, but I stand for any questions, if you have them. 659 01:02:06,220 --> 01:02:06,460 Shara? 660 01:02:07,380 --> 01:02:08,920 Yes, I have two questions. 661 01:02:09,420 --> 01:02:13,960 My first one is, are you able to do any deeper dives into the data to sort of see if you 662 01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:17,880 notice any outliers between the different campuses like with high school, a difference 663 01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:20,660 between 9th grade center, river horse, and the night school. 664 01:02:21,160 --> 01:02:23,880 Yeah, I bring, you know, the overall views to you, 665 01:02:23,940 --> 01:02:25,800 but yes, we are able to look into those, 666 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,820 and campuses are able to look into their data 667 01:02:28,820 --> 01:02:31,920 as well leaders are able to look into their data. 668 01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:33,700 Okay, and then my other question is, 669 01:02:33,780 --> 01:02:34,820 at the elementary level, 670 01:02:34,820 --> 01:02:37,700 how is the survey implemented for the kindergarten first grade students 671 01:02:37,700 --> 01:02:39,140 who might not be able to read the question? 672 01:02:39,260 --> 01:02:41,920 Yeah, we did third through fifth grade at this point. 673 01:02:42,500 --> 01:02:46,520 And we talked a lot about Ms. Glaze back there 674 01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:49,000 was the creator of the Belonging Survey. 675 01:02:49,600 --> 01:02:53,400 But we talked a lot about at what grade level 676 01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:56,240 they would really be able to answer some of those questions. 677 01:02:56,860 --> 01:02:58,380 We did a lot of work with that. 678 01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:01,140 We even took it to the DEI committee 679 01:03:01,140 --> 01:03:04,300 and let them give us feedback on some of the questions. 680 01:03:04,660 --> 01:03:07,520 But we asked pretty surface level questions 681 01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:12,100 and probably we'll need to dig in a little deeper 682 01:03:12,100 --> 01:03:13,320 with some follow-up questions 683 01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:17,500 to really see exactly where students are, 684 01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:19,620 but we felt like we needed some baseline data. 685 01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:22,480 Shannon? 686 01:03:23,580 --> 01:03:25,580 So what percentage of students, 687 01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:29,740 what percentage of students did the survey? 688 01:03:29,960 --> 01:03:32,880 So I'll put the exact percentages in the Friday report, 689 01:03:33,020 --> 01:03:33,620 if you'd like, for me to. 690 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:36,360 And then is there an expectation for the campuses 691 01:03:36,360 --> 01:03:39,060 to dig into the SATA and use it to build a better culture 692 01:03:39,060 --> 01:03:41,260 and with the leader in me or whatever 693 01:03:41,260 --> 01:03:43,120 that we're doing on those elementary campuses 694 01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:44,120 as middle school campuses? 695 01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:51,140 Is, have we set an expectation that they're going to look at this data, and that they're going to build plans to better the impairment for students? 696 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:58,760 I know Jason actually will go through this data with each of the principals he supervises. 697 01:03:59,300 --> 01:04:00,880 But there are departments too, right? 698 01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:10,120 There's a lot of data to look at, and that is the expectation that drives campus plan, that drives so many things. 699 01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:13,960 But data will say the same if we don't take actions. 700 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:16,020 So that's what I want to make sure is that we're not 701 01:04:16,020 --> 01:04:20,520 just blanketly giving the data over and then take okay do if it what you want like that we do have a plan 702 01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:24,420 Because it's great to have it, but if we don't implement anything on it, then we're not going to get any better 703 01:04:24,420 --> 01:04:28,020 Absolutely totally great. And yes, we do have a plan. Thank you 704 01:04:29,980 --> 01:04:36,920 I'm kind of to piggyback on Shirin's original question my thought process was if you notice any 705 01:04:38,780 --> 01:04:43,540 outliers in regard to the elementary schools and I'm not asking you to identify the particular school 706 01:04:43,540 --> 01:04:48,840 But versus a campus that had leader in me or maybe some other program so we can try to 707 01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:54,140 Like just even out that's a and yes, we can see differences in campuses, right? 708 01:04:54,380 --> 01:05:01,940 But that's a really good lens to look at the campuses that have leader in me and I'll pull that data because I think that's a great 709 01:05:01,940 --> 01:05:07,200 A great way to validate our program or not, right? But we know good things from leader in me 710 01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:13,580 Shannon aren't we doing leader in me now on all elementary campuses? 711 01:05:13,580 --> 01:05:15,600 This is not the simply a move for it. 712 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:19,060 And now, as we made it all over here, perfect. 713 01:05:19,580 --> 01:05:20,620 So moving 714 01:05:25,810 --> 01:05:28,210 on to the teacher instead of a lot of men. 715 01:05:28,710 --> 01:05:30,630 All right, and I think Ms. Rosser, 716 01:05:31,090 --> 01:05:36,410 soon to be Dr. Rosser, we'll join us up here. 717 01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:41,760 Good evening, President Lujudas and board. 718 01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:42,820 Thank you for having me. 719 01:05:45,220 --> 01:05:46,840 All right, so I'm going to jump in a little bit 720 01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:48,840 and then Gay will run away with it. 721 01:05:49,560 --> 01:05:52,200 Here we are, again, with our strategic plan. 722 01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:58,240 This fits in with our priority to talent acquisition, acceleration, advancement retention 723 01:05:58,240 --> 01:06:04,100 and support, specifically our same objectives as we had in the last report to expand strategies 724 01:06:04,100 --> 01:06:06,980 that attract and retain high performing talent. 725 01:06:07,900 --> 01:06:13,200 So we were asked to bring to you information about teacher incentive allotment. 726 01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:18,260 We are really excited this year that we were truly awarded. 727 01:06:18,260 --> 01:06:25,920 teachers were awarded TIA, so that's exciting and just to clarify that these are state funds 728 01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:36,540 that are given to teachers for a combination of their evaluation of their performance as well as student growth. 729 01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:46,480 And so the intent of TIA is truly to use it to help recruit and support and retain highly effective teachers in all schools. 730 01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:50,260 and that has been the intent of TIA from the start. 731 01:06:51,500 --> 01:06:59,720 We do have data from 2223, the TIA annual report, that shows that teachers who are designated 732 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:06,540 as TIA teachers are more likely to stay in their role, about 3% more likely than those who 733 01:07:06,540 --> 01:07:06,880 are not. 734 01:07:07,540 --> 01:07:14,160 But they're also, almost 8% more likely to stay in their district. 735 01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:28,860 And so, that data is pretty strong, and we definitely, in Hado, want to continue to increase, and as part of our strategic plan, more and more opportunities for teachers to qualify for TIA. 736 01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:33,100 And so, I'll let Gabe jump in, because she is our expert in TIA. 737 01:07:33,100 --> 01:07:34,300 Thank you, Dr. Malone. 738 01:07:35,160 --> 01:07:47,440 And so what I'm going to do is talk about where we are currently and where we hope to go because that ultimate goal of teacher incentive allotment has always been we're going to start with this group and each year we're going to try to expand. 739 01:07:48,100 --> 01:07:54,800 You know, it would be wonderful if one day every teacher in our district was eligible to receive those funds. 740 01:07:55,160 --> 01:08:01,780 And so you will probably remember our current plan just included our elementary math and reading teachers. 741 01:08:01,780 --> 01:08:06,420 TIA is always based on student growth and teacher performance. 742 01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:14,780 And so our TIA plan is 50% teacher growth for TTA, so our state adopted evaluation system 743 01:08:14,780 --> 01:08:20,000 and 50% student growth currently that has been star Renaissance scores. 744 01:08:20,260 --> 01:08:25,680 So beginning of year to end of year utilizing star Renaissance, the screen or data. 745 01:08:25,680 --> 01:08:33,520 And so we designated 60 teachers overall last October, I submitted those 746 01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:38,440 designations and we were approved, yay, in February. We were sick, they're 747 01:08:38,440 --> 01:08:44,760 excited to get that email from the TIAT. We designated 58 teachers in 748 01:08:44,760 --> 01:08:50,480 Hado based on 22-23 data. TIA is always a year behind, which is sometimes hard to 749 01:08:50,480 --> 01:08:55,300 wrap your mind around. It's always previous years data. Two of those 750 01:08:55,300 --> 01:09:00,060 Those 60 teachers were designated in their previous districts, those designations followed 751 01:09:00,060 --> 01:09:03,360 them, so that told our number of teachers to 60. 752 01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:10,460 And so something pretty awesome about TIA is that designation and incentive pay stays 753 01:09:10,460 --> 01:09:12,080 with teachers for five years. 754 01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:17,740 So for our teachers, this counts as year one that they've earned that designation, and for 755 01:09:17,740 --> 01:09:22,740 the next four years, that designation actually is added to their certificate. 756 01:09:22,740 --> 01:09:28,980 it, and that payout also comes to them in August for the next four years, or first payout 757 01:09:28,980 --> 01:09:30,320 will be this August. 758 01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:36,820 They can also obtain a higher designation, and I'm going to talk about those levels as 759 01:09:36,820 --> 01:09:42,140 a reminder in a minute, but if a teacher is at that recognized, they can submit their 760 01:09:42,140 --> 01:09:46,280 data this coming October, so that they can increase their payout amount. 761 01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:58,200 So, with our approval, our 60 designations generated $530,049 in TIA funds. 762 01:09:58,780 --> 01:10:03,700 And so, our current spending plan, all districts had to create a spending plan as part of 763 01:10:03,700 --> 01:10:10,100 their TIA plan, 10% of those funds are kept at the district level for TIA fees when we submit 764 01:10:10,100 --> 01:10:17,000 designations we submit a fee to TEA also for professional learning and any other administrative 765 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:24,460 fees to support the TIA program. 90% is then paid out to our teachers minus those TRS 766 01:10:25,100 --> 01:10:31,820 deductions and other mandatory taxes and deductions. I met late April, early May with Caleb, Jeff 767 01:10:31,820 --> 01:10:37,600 and Lori Johnson from payroll where we could really look at each teacher's designation amount 768 01:10:37,600 --> 01:11:06,340 and give them a pretty solid, here's what your gross payout will be and let them know minus these deductions and so I was able to send in May each teacher a specific individualized letter with the amount that they should expect, give or take and with those deductions that we may not have and been point on but they understood that that was their payout and so those will go out in August and we are excited. 769 01:11:06,340 --> 01:11:25,060 Our teachers are probably eagerly awaiting that to hit their bank accounts, and so from the get-go, actually I sent that email one week in May and then Commissioner Morath sent an email congratulating them the following week because it definitely is a big deal. 770 01:11:25,060 --> 01:11:30,700 I think on our TIA tour, when we got to celebrate the teachers, I told one of the classes 771 01:11:30,700 --> 01:11:34,520 that their teacher was one of the best in the state, and then I told another one, it was 772 01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:35,360 best in the world. 773 01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:40,500 So, I think Jason said, that teacher used that as the best in the state, it's going to be 774 01:11:40,500 --> 01:11:42,880 a little upset that the other ones in the best in the world. 775 01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:47,940 But definitely, I wanted kids to understand what a big deal this is, that your teacher 776 01:11:47,940 --> 01:11:53,680 is being recognized from the state, and we get to recognize them monetarily. 777 01:11:55,120 --> 01:11:57,900 And this is not clicking anymore. 778 01:12:03,660 --> 01:12:04,060 There we go. 779 01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:07,120 Okay, so with those, TIA, thank you, Caleb. 780 01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:14,220 With those TIA designations, this is just a graphic or a visual of the number of teachers 781 01:12:14,220 --> 01:12:15,380 at each level. 782 01:12:15,520 --> 01:12:21,640 So at that recognized level, we have 19 at the exemplary level, we have 17 at that master 783 01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:27,260 level 24. And that's also the order it goes in from recognized to exemplary to masters. 784 01:12:27,980 --> 01:12:34,700 Those state amounts are listed for you. Remember the amounts differ based on campuses. 785 01:12:35,540 --> 01:12:41,620 Rural districts or campuses are given priority and then schools with that low socio-economic 786 01:12:41,620 --> 01:12:48,620 status. And so those two things determine those amounts. And so in HUD OISD are recognized 787 01:12:48,620 --> 01:12:57,120 amounts vary from 3,374 to that 3,738. And if you look at that top, that master's, 788 01:12:57,180 --> 01:13:04,480 we have teachers here in HUD OISD in August that have that $15,000 payout that will come 789 01:13:04,480 --> 01:13:10,340 to them for that master designation. So quickly, after we did our little TIA celebration, 790 01:13:10,780 --> 01:13:16,520 I had many recognized teachers say, okay, what do I need to do? What's next? And so we 791 01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:23,600 talked through how how that works and and I did a TIA tour in the fall and talked about 792 01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:28,960 all those things but that it gets real once amounts are attached and once that once that 793 01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:33,860 celebration squad and went through and people are like okay this is a real thing it's not 794 01:13:33,860 --> 01:13:41,080 just something that's out there that that might happen and so each April we get the opportunity 795 01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:44,480 to expand or modify our current TIA plans. 796 01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:48,140 So I just spoke to what was currently in place. 797 01:13:48,600 --> 01:13:54,120 April of 2022, I submitted an application for expansion 798 01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:57,960 from elementary to include some secondary teachers. 799 01:13:58,620 --> 01:14:02,120 And so this October, I will submit data 800 01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:04,900 for all of our K through five math and reading teachers 801 01:14:04,900 --> 01:14:08,780 who have gotten a new or higher designation 802 01:14:08,780 --> 01:14:13,740 and then we'll also submit data on our six, three, E-lar and math teachers, 803 01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:18,040 algebra one teachers, English one and English two teachers. 804 01:14:18,320 --> 01:14:21,900 So on these slides, anything that's highlighted in the light orange or the peach, 805 01:14:22,220 --> 01:14:26,080 that's a change that has, is going into effect. 806 01:14:26,700 --> 01:14:33,260 At the secondary level, this school year, we based it 50% again on that teacher performance, 807 01:14:33,620 --> 01:14:36,980 T-test scores, and 50% student growth star. 808 01:14:36,980 --> 01:14:44,880 So elementary STAR. So elementary STAR, secondary STAR. So screener data at the elementary 809 01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:52,820 level, test state testing data at that secondary level. And so I look forward to submitting the data in 810 01:14:52,820 --> 01:14:56,540 October to see who will qualify for those designated 811 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:29,940 Now, our elementary data, remember that stays with them for the next five years. TIA is going to have to approve this data again. They'll take it through their process and let us know whether this is approved or not. So y'all keep fingers and toes crossed that in February, we'll get another congratulations, email for those. Looking into next year, this is pending approval from the TIA team. This was submitted this past April. They actually reached out in June. 812 01:15:29,940 --> 01:15:35,360 and wanted a little bit more information because there are several changes that we wanted 813 01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:40,320 to take place and so they had some questions so I look forward to getting their follow-up 814 01:15:40,320 --> 01:15:41,980 email any day now. 815 01:15:42,540 --> 01:15:48,680 Our original plan stays in place in addition to that at the elementary level and this was 816 01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:53,420 super important to me is our special education, resource and inclusion teachers, our dyslexia 817 01:15:53,420 --> 01:15:55,440 teachers and our intervention teachers. 818 01:15:55,440 --> 01:16:02,160 As I would present on TIA, those teachers would look at me like, hey, what about us? 819 01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:04,200 And I'm like, absolutely, you know, absolutely. 820 01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:11,000 They stand beside our general ed teachers and truly contribute to our student growth 821 01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:12,060 on a daily basis. 822 01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:14,660 So I was at a session last summer. 823 01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:16,360 They talked about how to work them in. 824 01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:22,200 And I'm like, okay, I had to wait till April to submit that expansion, but so very hopeful 825 01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:23,220 that that is approved. 826 01:16:23,940 --> 01:16:34,220 Another change with our move from Renaissance to NWA map, that screener will have to change. 827 01:16:34,460 --> 01:16:39,560 So our measure of student growth will change, and so that will have to be approved by the TIA team. 828 01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:47,100 It is an approved, used instrument, so I do not foresee that being a challenge. 829 01:16:47,100 --> 01:16:51,020 and I think our teachers are probably 830 01:16:51,020 --> 01:16:53,520 really excited about the data that they see 831 01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:55,420 from this new screener. 832 01:16:56,260 --> 01:16:58,900 Six through eight, eight, ELA and math teachers 833 01:16:58,900 --> 01:17:01,400 will stay, also bring in those 834 01:17:01,400 --> 01:17:03,740 fed inclusion and dyslexia teachers. 835 01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:06,400 Now here is a change at the secondary level too. 836 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:08,540 We've used our data this year. 837 01:17:09,520 --> 01:17:13,140 And so quickly moving to that, that map data also. 838 01:17:13,140 --> 01:17:19,000 So, and I think this will end up benefiting our middle school teachers because they're 839 01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:23,040 going to be able to see, you know, something with renaissance you could do or a screener 840 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:26,680 at the elementary level, you can see the trajectory of your students' growth throughout 841 01:17:26,680 --> 01:17:31,820 the year. So you know who's getting there and who's not. And so we're now going to have 842 01:17:31,820 --> 01:17:36,520 an instrument in our secondary teacher's hands if they can do that. So they can track. 843 01:17:36,860 --> 01:17:41,020 And that was super important to the elementary teachers when they were last, oh, I know. 844 01:17:41,020 --> 01:17:47,980 I have my TTS scores. I can look at my student growth scores and to see where my students are and where I need to get them 845 01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:56,680 Obviously because we want all of our students to grow but but also if I could qualify for the teacher in son of allotment based on that growth 846 01:17:57,920 --> 01:18:03,440 Additionally, we'll use map for algebra one and English one. It is K through nine 847 01:18:03,440 --> 01:18:08,780 It does not expand to 10th grade so they'll stay the course with with star 848 01:18:08,780 --> 01:18:18,720 This next one is a big win. Travis and I taught several times the previous school year about all right, how can we pull CTE in? 849 01:18:19,480 --> 01:18:24,620 Core courses are absolutely important. I was a language arts teacher, I think English is pretty important class. 850 01:18:25,300 --> 01:18:33,360 But some of our kids come to school every day, wake up every day to go to robotics class, to go to these CTE classes. 851 01:18:33,360 --> 01:18:36,180 because they are what motivates our kids to do well 852 01:18:36,180 --> 01:18:37,360 and to perform in school. 853 01:18:38,120 --> 01:18:42,000 So Travis did some leg work with me, went to some conferences, 854 01:18:42,300 --> 01:18:45,660 found some other districts that included their CTE teachers, 855 01:18:45,860 --> 01:18:48,800 what were they using for that measure to show student growth. 856 01:18:49,360 --> 01:18:52,600 And he said, Guy, I'm willing to help with my budget 857 01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:54,220 and support a program. 858 01:18:54,220 --> 01:19:00,260 And so precision exams is a recognized platform for TIA 859 01:19:00,260 --> 01:19:05,180 from from the state and so that's what we are going with and the exam is actually called 860 01:19:05,180 --> 01:19:10,360 use science but it what we can use that to show as students grows from beginning of year to 861 01:19:10,360 --> 01:19:16,660 end of year in their CTE courses and when we had our committee meeting in May we really talked 862 01:19:16,660 --> 01:19:24,080 about there's a lot of CTE courses probably can't bring them all in and and do that well and so we 863 01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:29,640 actually it was a CTE teacher who suggested why don't we start with our level one 864 01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:33,800 courses and then we can build upon that each year and so that is where we 865 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:39,040 ended up and we'll we'll submit if TIA says yes and we're just going to say 866 01:19:39,040 --> 01:19:43,100 that they will and we'll submit that that we'll collect that data this next 867 01:19:43,100 --> 01:19:48,940 school year and then submit it the following October and then continue we'll 868 01:19:48,940 --> 01:19:53,560 just continue to explore the addition of grade levels subjects each spring 869 01:19:53,560 --> 01:20:05,480 During that expansion and modification process, and that will always include input from a TIA committee which is comprised of teachers, administrators and district leadership. 870 01:20:05,480 --> 01:20:14,560 It's important to get that input and just that commitment as for my district stakeholders to further our plans. 871 01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:19,760 Another exciting opportunity that Dr. Malone and I have been talking about, I think since 872 01:20:19,760 --> 01:20:27,720 you arrived in Hado and we're going to make it happen, if a teacher is or has their 873 01:20:27,720 --> 01:20:34,320 national board certification, they automatically qualify for the recognized designation, automatically, 874 01:20:34,620 --> 01:20:36,040 just by having that. 875 01:20:36,580 --> 01:20:43,940 And we've had some teachers interested in seeking that, but they know that it is an intense process, 876 01:20:43,940 --> 01:20:51,200 It is a time-consuming process, and so we have talked about, we need to support them somehow. 877 01:20:51,420 --> 01:20:58,040 So we plan to launch a cohort of three to five teachers who would like to seek their national board certification. 878 01:20:58,660 --> 01:21:06,200 It is a two to three year process, so we'll hold an informational session in September, letting them know about that process, the time commitment, 879 01:21:06,200 --> 01:21:20,920 And kind of the timeline, there's four components, and so initially in our initial plans, we've talked about once that component is done, we'll reimburs, and then you can go and get that next component. 880 01:21:21,180 --> 01:21:29,040 So we've committed $1,900 total to reimburs, it's $2,400 total to for them to add that certification. 881 01:21:29,040 --> 01:21:34,100 And so if they'll take care of that, we'll help them get that national board certification. 882 01:21:34,320 --> 01:21:37,740 So they can one have that as an educator. 883 01:21:38,180 --> 01:21:41,080 I regret that I did not do that when I was in the classroom. 884 01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:44,200 And so I'm excited to see whoever jumps on board for this. 885 01:21:44,340 --> 01:21:49,000 I'm excited to see that journey and looking forward to supporting them. 886 01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:52,360 And then I leave you with this last slide. 887 01:21:52,660 --> 01:21:56,320 Everything we do is about student outcomes and student success. 888 01:21:56,320 --> 01:22:04,500 but TIA is also about the smiles on this slide and the joy that is on these 889 01:22:04,500 --> 01:22:09,120 teachers' faces. The work they do is so incredibly important. It's so incredibly 890 01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:16,520 impactful and I think anything that we can do to incentivize that and to show 891 01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:21,640 value to our teachers, I think that's absolutely immeasurable. So thank you and I 892 01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:28,600 any questions? I believe we have a nationally board-certified educator sitting 893 01:22:28,600 --> 01:22:33,560 up on our team. Oh, well, would you like to support 894 01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:39,140 that? At this point, but we shall talk. Yeah, I actually had a couple things I 895 01:22:39,140 --> 01:22:43,000 wanted to say about that. So, you know, I think three to five, you might want to 896 01:22:43,000 --> 01:22:46,640 consider expanding. You know, having gone through that two-year process, there's a 897 01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:50,780 lot of writing and evidence and videos you have to compile and having feedback 898 01:22:50,780 --> 01:22:53,860 the fact that you get from the people you're working with is extremely important. 899 01:22:54,320 --> 01:22:57,440 So the smaller you make that group, the harder it is to really achieve that. 900 01:22:57,780 --> 01:23:01,780 The other thing I would suggest is that we have a real clear application process. 901 01:23:01,980 --> 01:23:05,480 You can vet the teachers and apply because if you don't think they're gonna be quality, 902 01:23:05,700 --> 01:23:10,640 at the quality it's gonna take to pass, then they might need to wait a year or something like that. 903 01:23:10,660 --> 01:23:12,280 I love that feedback, thank you. 904 01:23:12,480 --> 01:23:17,940 And I will add that I'm currently working on some additional funding because one, 905 01:23:17,940 --> 01:23:24,460 I'm well aware of how it grows a teacher's practice to become a national board sort of by teacher 906 01:23:24,460 --> 01:23:29,820 And so I think it would be tremendous for somebody to receive the funding but really just to 907 01:23:30,540 --> 01:23:38,960 Expand their knowledge of the classroom and so working on that and also hoping to find some way that we can have someone 908 01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:42,700 Coaching the teachers as they go through them. Yeah, I just want to add like the group 909 01:23:42,700 --> 01:23:47,240 I was in there was at least 40 people at our cohort and it grew every single year 910 01:23:47,240 --> 01:23:55,100 We always had that many and what happened is the people who became National Board Certified came back and were the teachers of the cohort after that so that's wonderful. 911 01:23:55,400 --> 01:24:05,100 We will probably invite you to our information session and I know for a fact we've hired one teacher that this hiring season that also is bringing that certification. 912 01:24:05,460 --> 01:24:08,980 So welcome to hip donation. We'd love to tap into your talent. 913 01:24:09,500 --> 01:24:10,880 So Felix. 914 01:24:10,880 --> 01:24:11,120 Thanks. 915 01:24:12,220 --> 01:24:14,280 Thank you, Dr. Malone and Mr. 916 01:24:14,300 --> 01:24:16,220 Osterfer for bringing in the information. 917 01:24:16,820 --> 01:24:20,520 When I started looking at this information early this summer, 918 01:24:21,260 --> 01:24:27,520 I was astounded by the amount of money that's available and the use was very low. 919 01:24:28,060 --> 01:24:33,180 I can't remember the numbers, 340,430,000 teachers in Texas, but 920 01:24:33,180 --> 01:24:38,540 only 20% or 25,000 actually received this benefit last year. 921 01:24:38,540 --> 01:24:45,080 So, what can we do to include some of the other areas, for example, we have a lot of coaches, 922 01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:51,940 we have a lot of arts, so as we progress with this, we need to be able to incentivize 923 01:24:51,940 --> 01:24:53,140 every single one of our teachers. 924 01:24:54,060 --> 01:24:59,880 No, absolutely, and that is our ultimate goal, I think, when Dr. Malone and I talk about 925 01:24:59,880 --> 01:25:06,880 that expansion, we may want to move slow to go fast, so we don't overextend and then have 926 01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:10,520 of our data, not be on point or validated. 927 01:25:11,100 --> 01:25:13,800 And so I think every year, I know, 928 01:25:14,020 --> 01:25:16,800 as I lead the aspiring leaders academy, 929 01:25:17,200 --> 01:25:20,060 I always pose to them the TIA dilemma 930 01:25:20,060 --> 01:25:22,000 of how do we include more? 931 01:25:22,300 --> 01:25:25,380 And several or one was a STEM teacher 932 01:25:25,380 --> 01:25:27,100 and he said, what? 933 01:25:27,340 --> 01:25:29,480 There's a core teacher getting $15,000. 934 01:25:29,740 --> 01:25:32,080 I were, you know, and so absolutely, 935 01:25:32,480 --> 01:25:34,960 we want to expand and we will work 936 01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:37,400 to continue to do that. 937 01:25:37,980 --> 01:25:42,860 It all has to go through though that very rigorous data process. 938 01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:45,240 And the TTS scores have to be there, 939 01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:51,760 and those student growth scores have to be there in order to get that designation that we even submit. 940 01:25:52,100 --> 01:25:56,220 So, I may have submitted 140 elementary teachers, 941 01:25:56,220 --> 01:25:59,940 but only 58 of those met that criteria. 942 01:25:59,940 --> 01:26:07,200 And so I think as a district, we should commit to ensuring our teachers are at the top 943 01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:12,940 tier in their evaluation system and that we're really impacting student growth on a daily 944 01:26:12,940 --> 01:26:13,420 basis. 945 01:26:14,540 --> 01:26:21,260 And I will just add that this is one of our reporting components of our new strategic plan. 946 01:26:21,820 --> 01:26:26,100 And so we will be reporting on the percentage of expansion that we have every year. 947 01:26:26,100 --> 01:26:30,620 It is very rigorous to add areas. 948 01:26:30,960 --> 01:26:36,780 We have to have some kind of pre and post assessment that's valid and recognized by 949 01:26:36,780 --> 01:26:38,380 TEA in order to do it. 950 01:26:38,640 --> 01:26:47,320 So we would love to just add everybody tomorrow, but and I will say gay does a tremendous amount 951 01:26:47,320 --> 01:26:48,060 of work on this. 952 01:26:48,100 --> 01:26:51,220 All of this data she puts together by hand. 953 01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:55,920 And there's a huge responsibility in this because if our data is off, they don't just 954 01:26:55,920 --> 01:27:00,700 throw out one person or two people, they'll throw it all out.
