00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:32,690
Okay, go ahead. Welcome to Lakeview Academy Board Meeting. It is 7.10 p.m. August 13, 2026. We're starting a few minutes late tonight because we had open back to teacher house night tonight. So we had to get everybody out the door. So roll call. My king, we actually had to see Tina Smith down your gun. We're excusing Aaron tonight and CC was supposed to join us online. So she may come in and

2
00:00:32,690 --> 00:00:34,430
a little bit and we'll answer it if she does.

3
00:00:35,710 --> 00:00:39,190
Speaking of, we do want to officially welcome CC to the board.

4
00:00:39,350 --> 00:00:41,670
We did mention her at the last meeting,

5
00:00:41,670 --> 00:00:44,790
but just to officially welcome her tonight.

6
00:00:45,210 --> 00:00:46,430
And then let's stand for the first.

7
00:00:50,370 --> 00:00:54,930
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America

8
00:00:55,390 --> 00:00:57,750
and to the Republic for which it stands

9
00:00:57,750 --> 00:01:01,370
one nation under God in the indivisible with liberty

10
00:01:01,370 --> 00:01:02,650
and justice for all.

11
00:01:02,650 --> 00:01:03,350
Thank you.

12
00:01:05,870 --> 00:01:11,630
Operating to board member reports, how about the board retreat?

13
00:01:11,990 --> 00:01:15,250
Anyone have any feedback on our retreat?

14
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:19,660
I thought it was very productive.

15
00:01:20,060 --> 00:01:24,640
I was super impressed with William and very grateful for his organization and his expertise,

16
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:29,220
and I felt like we got a lot done at our retreat.

17
00:01:30,500 --> 00:01:32,240
Yeah, I felt like we got a lot done.

18
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,480
I'm looking forward to it, because he's sending us back some stuff.

19
00:01:36,980 --> 00:01:43,220
I think it will be here Saturday, yes, I think that was the deadline that we gave

20
00:01:43,220 --> 00:01:49,540
him was one month and so Saturday I believe we should be expecting some things for so

21
00:01:49,540 --> 00:01:50,040
many days.

22
00:01:53,460 --> 00:02:00,980
I thought it was good to be together to discuss policies and alignment and I thought it

23
00:02:00,980 --> 00:02:03,140
was really time will spend.

24
00:02:03,140 --> 00:02:11,360
Yes, and I thought the policy didn't seem so daunting, but you just read it by yourself,

25
00:02:11,740 --> 00:02:15,240
you know, it was, we got to dissect it and that was a little more manageable.

26
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:22,280
Cap report and assignments, welcome to a new school year, I don't know that we have anything to talk

27
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:29,360
about yet, but Cassie will create that little Google calendar for us this year and then if you're

28
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:34,860
able to attend something if you will please put your name beside what you're

29
00:02:34,860 --> 00:02:38,860
able to come to and in that way we can brag about our teachers at our next

30
00:02:38,860 --> 00:02:46,540
for me. Also in your little package is the conflict of interest form. If you

31
00:02:46,540 --> 00:02:52,080
could fill that out tonight before you leave and please give that to Tina or Cassie

32
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,300
before you leave. Cassie do you have another copy?

33
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:03,660
And then for our friends online do you want them to come by to pick that up or what's

34
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,620
it's in the board packet they just need to print it or they come in I have both.

35
00:03:09,140 --> 00:03:09,160
Okay.

36
00:03:10,620 --> 00:03:11,580
All right.

37
00:03:11,820 --> 00:03:12,680
Mr. B.C.

38
00:03:15,700 --> 00:03:17,660
Thanks again I thought the retreat was great.

39
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:22,680
I know this will the outcomes of that retreat will change some of my director's report in the

40
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:23,480
next couple months.

41
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,120
So if you have questions about this report,

42
00:03:26,540 --> 00:03:27,420
please let me know.

43
00:03:27,700 --> 00:03:30,040
There's very little information in here

44
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,440
that you're not already aware of.

45
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,000
I just wanted to make sure you had access

46
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:38,320
to our enrollment numbers as you are tracking that

47
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:39,400
and see where we are.

48
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,520
As you mentioned earlier, it's hard back to school nights

49
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,560
and it was wonderful.

50
00:03:47,140 --> 00:03:50,320
We have a lot of families here that's super exciting.

51
00:03:52,140 --> 00:03:56,680
It's one of the few times the city does not like this I think because we had a lot of

52
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:01,340
cars out there, but we warned them this is one of those events there's never enough parking.

53
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,680
So we've had a lot of smiles, it's very up to you.

54
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:06,720
Oh, okay.

55
00:04:07,020 --> 00:04:07,360
Now you did?

56
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:08,240
Awesome.

57
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:13,460
Well, I know there are everywhere, but every family I met with tonight, it was just super

58
00:04:13,460 --> 00:04:19,440
exciting to meet their children and to get them into, meet their teachers, lots of smiles,

59
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:27,100
a lot of enthusiasm. We welcome these students back on Monday next week and our

60
00:04:27,100 --> 00:04:33,980
enrollment as of the second we're at 1,230 students. You can see from the report

61
00:04:33,980 --> 00:04:40,200
there is a bit of a weight list still in some of the grades and that will help

62
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:46,000
us to fill in some of those other places but as a board and as a budgeting

63
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:52,440
planning purposes we've exceeded our goal for enrollment and so we will be

64
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:58,140
sitting really well with that budget and being able to cover all those

65
00:04:58,140 --> 00:05:03,120
planning expenses. So we're excited to be there to see the growth in all of the

66
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:09,800
grades and it'll get a little bit higher by that next board meeting. We do have

67
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:15,560
an accreditation visit this year so we will be working. We have teachers who are

68
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:23,300
supporting the accreditation report is in about five or six areas and so we take each of those

69
00:05:23,300 --> 00:05:29,800
areas and we have a little school and an elementary teacher that serves on that committee and they

70
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:35,120
help get those reports ready for our accreditation visit. They've all been selected and we've

71
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:40,620
done those meetings and then we've had a couple of sessions already with the person who's assigned

72
00:05:40,620 --> 00:05:43,960
and come to our accreditation in preparation for that.

73
00:05:44,300 --> 00:05:47,580
I believe our visit is the first week, I believe,

74
00:05:47,580 --> 00:05:48,140
of November.

75
00:05:49,500 --> 00:05:52,100
And so we just have a super exciting year

76
00:05:52,100 --> 00:05:53,660
because that's also probably close

77
00:05:53,660 --> 00:05:54,900
to when we finish construction

78
00:05:54,900 --> 00:05:56,320
and we'll have an open house.

79
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,380
And so we're gonna be just running full speed

80
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,280
all the way to Christmas, I think, this year.

81
00:06:03,700 --> 00:06:06,560
So we'll keep you in the loop on that accreditation visit,

82
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,400
the board, you don't really have any work to do on that,

83
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:14,340
but your support will be important for any of those committees as we try to

84
00:06:14,340 --> 00:06:19,960
gather information to complete the report and then the day of the accreditation

85
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:25,100
visit they often will ask if we can have some board members they don't ask for

86
00:06:25,100 --> 00:06:29,580
all of you because then that becomes a meeting but you may be delegating one or two

87
00:06:29,580 --> 00:06:35,120
of you to be on site that visit day so that you can meet with one of their

88
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:39,320
accreditation team members to answer questions and give your report on any

89
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:44,660
sections of the school. Do you have any questions about my report? Please let me know.

90
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:46,580
Our

91
00:06:50,700 --> 00:06:54,380
board committee reports any updates on policy committee?

92
00:06:54,820 --> 00:06:59,320
Now that the school year is starting, I'm going to go ahead and schedule a policy committee

93
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:04,860
meeting for the first time and we'll get started. I do not have time to send anything to them.

94
00:07:05,100 --> 00:07:08,360
Okay that was great and then expansion committee anything new?

95
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:21,180
July reports were submitted and read the last report that Brent sent over and we may not

96
00:07:21,180 --> 00:07:26,520
come in on time, but we will come in on our budget as of right now.

97
00:07:26,900 --> 00:07:35,100
So there are a few outstanding issues that need to be addressed, so my last comment about

98
00:07:35,100 --> 00:07:41,320
coming in under budget, my main need to revise that in the next couple weeks, but as of

99
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:47,220
right now, that's where we stand. So, from that financial perspective and reporting

100
00:07:47,220 --> 00:07:50,560
perspective, that's what I have. Rick, there's anything else you'd like to add.

101
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:55,380
I think that's a great report. They did give us temporary usage of the classrooms for

102
00:07:55,380 --> 00:08:00,600
tonight's back to school, but as far as holding classes in their board entire school day,

103
00:08:01,100 --> 00:08:04,400
there's still some work to do for they'll give us permission to do that. So, they allow

104
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,380
to have more of an open house experience but instructional time we don't have

105
00:08:08,380 --> 00:08:12,780
permission yet so unless we get that by tomorrow's on Monday those three

106
00:08:12,780 --> 00:08:16,720
teachers will have a different space to teach the classes in until we get that

107
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,720
permission from financial.

108
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:29,580
Yes, those are just the middle school art classes and music throwing classes yes and

109
00:08:29,580 --> 00:08:33,860
are there specific is there specific punch list or specific set of requirements

110
00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:41,180
So the building inspector signed off on his portion except for we did not have a Fire

111
00:08:41,180 --> 00:08:41,980
Marshal sign off.

112
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,180
So the building says, I'm good as soon as you have that sign off.

113
00:08:45,300 --> 00:08:47,640
The Fire Marshal came and did his first visit.

114
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,060
There was a problem with the strobes not timing.

115
00:08:51,820 --> 00:08:58,980
He came back the next week and the strobes were working but a different relay wasn't working.

116
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,980
And so they're trying to fix that problem now.

117
00:09:01,980 --> 00:09:07,820
So it's been a moving target for his punch list, but he is willing to keep coming back

118
00:09:07,820 --> 00:09:08,520
and trying again.

119
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:10,560
So, that is very gracious.

120
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:14,520
Stella is working with her electricians to try to solve those as quick as they can.

121
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,220
Unfortunately for them, it doesn't seem like it's just a quick fix, they just are still

122
00:09:20,220 --> 00:09:21,000
troubleshooting him.

123
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:33,380
And then how about our audit committee, any slides or adventures this year?

124
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:35,640
Are you asking me?

125
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:44,960
Yes, you're the only or Daniel. Oh, yes, I forgot Daniel. I'm sorry. You're here as well. No other than we are in the midst of our annual financial

126
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:49,040
audits. Okay. We're working on that. Yeah, sometimes exciting.

127
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,560
Okay, June, financial reports.

128
00:09:55,920 --> 00:10:03,200
Right. These are the June financial reports, which is the end of the fiscal year. So these should be

129
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,840
what will end up reporting to the state

130
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,320
and what is currently being audited.

131
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:14,080
So we did end in a good position with cash on hand.

132
00:10:14,980 --> 00:10:18,940
You will notice next month when those reports come in

133
00:10:18,940 --> 00:10:22,740
as our budget increases, the day's cash on hand goes down

134
00:10:22,740 --> 00:10:24,380
because it's based on the budgeted expenses.

135
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,160
So that will probably drop a little bit next month

136
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:32,360
when we start reporting on FY27 rather than FY26.

137
00:10:33,820 --> 00:10:40,980
all the revenue and expense lines are within acceptable ranges for what budget

138
00:10:40,980 --> 00:10:44,720
variances. There were a few budget variances in a couple of adjustments that

139
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:51,980
you'll see noted on the cover sheet. Mostly due to some USBE finance guidelines

140
00:10:51,980 --> 00:10:55,140
on where things should be recorded so they got moved around.

141
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:58,460
But other than that, we

142
00:10:58,460 --> 00:11:04,880
end of the year in their shape. And we anticipate doing so again in the upcoming

143
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:09,180
school year. So I'm happy to entertain questions with anyone happening.

144
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:14,020
Good.

145
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:26,430
Right, then let's get on the kids for that whole section.

146
00:11:30,290 --> 00:11:34,010
Yeah, I will take motion for the reports.

147
00:11:34,310 --> 00:11:37,010
I move to accept the financial and accounting reports.

148
00:11:37,430 --> 00:11:42,050
Michael made a motion to move to accept the financial accounting reports.

149
00:11:42,350 --> 00:11:42,790
All in paper.

150
00:11:43,290 --> 00:11:43,530
Aye.

151
00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:44,110
Aye.

152
00:11:45,210 --> 00:11:45,330
Aye.

153
00:11:45,890 --> 00:11:47,270
All right, that passed.

154
00:11:47,690 --> 00:11:48,490
Thank you.

155
00:11:48,970 --> 00:11:49,950
Public comment.

156
00:11:50,110 --> 00:11:52,150
We have no public here tonight.

157
00:11:52,810 --> 00:11:55,570
So let's move on to the consent agenda.

158
00:11:55,570 --> 00:12:00,070
We do have our June minutes and our August first minutes.

159
00:12:00,230 --> 00:12:05,470
If you look at your packet, the August first minutes do need the colors taken off and

160
00:12:05,470 --> 00:12:11,510
there's a few spelling corrections that Cassie or I'm assuming Cassie shouldn't have thrown

161
00:12:11,510 --> 00:12:11,970
one of us.

162
00:12:12,070 --> 00:12:13,550
That Cassie will take care of his hair.

163
00:12:14,450 --> 00:12:21,010
So when you are approving the minutes, that's what you're approving minus the color plus

164
00:12:21,010 --> 00:12:23,230
the spelling corrections.
