[2:06] Right briefly starting for which is
visitors recruiters who would like to drift
[2:11] board. Brings us through
[2:18] whose side presentation. It would. Say
thank you for joining us here in the
[2:24] library you might notice if you've been
in this library before there is that
[2:28] a few changes we took
[2:30] a lot of barriers out changed up the
furniture and we now have more flexible
[2:34] working space so very excited about that
that we're actually able to have our
[2:38] school board meeting in here instead of in
the gym where it was even harder to hear
[2:42] it is here so I've got just
[2:44] a quick presentation for you
tonight and if you can take
[2:48] a look I think the space bar should move
us for great OK so you have my report in
[2:54] front of you and I'm
just going to give you
[2:56] a couple of highlights of what you can see
up there is that. Meat and bet Raymond
[3:02] and Carrie Johnson and all it's just
this one approach for 7 days this summer
[3:09] had
[3:09] a really good time together and I believe
all of us would describe it as sort of
[3:15] a life changing career changing conference
it was one of those times when you
[3:19] really get to think about what you're doing
and why and it had an impact on us and
[3:23] in ways that we're seeing
[3:25] a little bit just every day one of the
big things that we're doing this year is
[3:29] we're trying to wish people well every day
so that we get all of us in the morning
[3:34] and we asked the children to read with us
and sort of calm themselves and then we
[3:40] take a moment. Just wish people who
are missing from us well we said
[3:43] a positive energy into the
world and that's just
[3:47] a nice moment for the children and
what I noticed as we were releasing
[3:49] a butterfly in the garden
the other day with
[3:53] a 2nd grade class and one of the his as
they were walking away because we wish you
[3:57] well out of life and want to do it solely
I did not just little things like that
[4:01] that just kind of speaks to what is
conscious does one conscious discipline is
[4:05] regulating ourselves as adults that we can
help kids regulate themselves as well so
[4:10] that was
[4:11] a big part of our professional development
this summer and then also throughout the
[4:14] course of this year we are doing
[4:16] a an online study that the 3 of us are
leading with our faculty to help them
[4:22] understand conscious discipline at
[4:23] a deeper level so that's
really neat and IMO we have
[4:26] a lot of people attend next summer to go
to the conference and then also we were
[4:30] able to add through Title 4 Thank goodness
[4:33] a school based behavior
consultant through and C.S.S.
[4:36] And basically what that is is someone who
is going to help us with our positive
[4:40] behavior supports throughout the building
and who is helping to guide us in
[4:44] tracking our attainable meaning at what
our discipline data means and how we can
[4:49] better as students who are coming to us
with greater and greater needs at all times
[4:53] so that is something really important to
us and I think because 1st of all this
[4:58] year. Next we've been some great facility
updates beyond just the library we
[5:03] actually replace 2 of the floors in our
middle school they've been held together by
[5:06] duct tape for several years because the
glue never stuck so any time it would get
[5:13] wet in there the former start bubbling up
that still happens and one of the rooms
[5:17] will fix that room next summer but you
can see nice shiny floors there are very
[5:20] very happy place and countertops that were
coming apart long deferred maintenance
[5:24] that just had not been cared for over the
years we're finally taking care of some
[5:29] of those things so we've painted ceilings
in our middle school that are now quite
[5:34] instead of brown water stained we have
changed a closet into an office for
[5:38] a school because behavior consultant
that's him there Dan. And that's Kate my
[5:42] behavior interventionists so they have
[5:44] a new office space and then my main reception
area was also redesigned for Brenda
[5:50] because in security audit we knew was that
it was not safe for Brenda to have her
[5:55] body turned away from the door and to
be at a low desk it is much safer at
[6:01] a reception area to have an elevated
desk and I have her facing forward so we
[6:05] changed out all the furniture in there
to make that happen we also have
[6:08] a new visitor entry and logging system
so any disturbance in the building signs
[6:12] another computer gets there pass and no
matter who you are anybody can be stopped
[6:18] and taken back to the main
office if they don't have
[6:21] a visitor ID because this building has
always been very open over the years and
[6:26] that's
[6:26] a nice community feel but what it doesn't
allow is for me to know who's in the
[6:30] building in the event of an emergency
and also doesn't allow me to track the
[6:34] contractors that are here and
the system actually does
[6:37] a quick little background check on them
when they scan their driver's license so I
[6:40] can tell if they are some kind of offender
that I don't want to let into the
[6:44] building and that's really impressive and
it's all brand new so that's why facility
[6:51] and then the next thing I have it is open
house so we did something maybe not new
[6:56] but something different that
we had a long time we had
[7:00] a piece of and for our OPEN HOUSE it's
from Nova which is our organization and
[7:06] basically
[7:07] a lot of pizza dough and cheese and then
we made all the piece of sauce from our
[7:12] own gardens from the tomatoes that we grow
from the herbs that we grow in our pizza
[7:16] gardens and we created
pizzas and gave everybody
[7:19] a taste test for pizza right before they
open house so we had people sort of
[7:23] milling about we had a
fire truck here and just
[7:26] a and I sat was for people to say
hello to each other they haven't in
[7:29] a long time and then that was followed
immediately by our open house which was
[7:33] a success that was great and also. In
this picture right here you can see the
[7:40] farmer princes. All of Europe will sooner
school soon Wades husband can wade who
[7:45] came back to visit his soo works
here is my library and 2 days
[7:48] a week right now and 3 days
[7:50] a week at City schools you've got to come
back to the school where he was principal
[7:53] in the 1941 was my 2nd boss your
2nd heart was also 0 and then the
[8:00] better says it could go to 4 years while
well on the piece of in on the pizza oven
[8:05] that the bench to us were grown through
[8:07] a $1000.00 grant that Caylee won last
year at nationals and we put in our pizza
[8:12] garden so the kids harvested that and then
you left some of the funds Planned for
[8:16] the no and the cheese and things like that.
Since we saw I saw you last the kids
[8:23] are busy but we took 7
students for fuel up to
[8:27] a place 60 down to Gillette Stadium for
and New England conference and then they
[8:32] hand out Brandon when you met last
time was selected as the Vermont State
[8:37] Ambassador so she's very busy going all
over doing different things I'm meeting
[8:41] with different groups and she's going to
be meeting with other schools that we're
[8:45] trying to get involved with
your on 60 minutes or so for
[8:49] a really stupid here with this is our
3rd state ambassador and she was out of
[8:57] over 100 applicants in the state of Vermont
to get back on that we had 4 students
[9:03] selected to go to nationals to receive
full scholarships one still elected not to
[9:09] go and one we raise half the funds and the
parents paid the other half so that she
[9:14] could attend on Roxanne got a
scholarship to go as a P.A.
[9:18] And I just paid my way because I wanted
to go anyway. There were 225 kids in 100
[9:24] adults now and in Atlanta Georgia for 5
days it was an awesome experience the kids
[9:29] went to by that Falcon stadium where everybody
did all kinds of different workshops
[9:35] with major speakers I mean coming in from
all over the United States. Hannah has
[9:42] been invited to
[9:42] a Joe let game up next game. On
the 20th she can't go next Sunday
[9:49] she has many after all but she is going to
be going to other things around noon but
[9:55] representing her mom doing
[9:56] a great job. And we're we're already active
we did open house we have World School
[10:03] Milk Day coming up next Wednesday we're
inviting farmers from the community and to
[10:08] do
[10:08] a milk toast with us it's on we're this is our
1st time doing it but there are 40 countries
[10:14] involved this year so it's going to be
finding cool and Hannah having that out so
[10:19] that's just
[10:19] a quick update and we're working on our
new on our new grammar which goes in
[10:25] November so I'll get approval in place.
On. Oh thank you all for your support
[10:32] and
[10:32] a wonderful year and so the quick question
Harvester nurser happening this year that
[10:37] is happening October 21st but they're
working on the children Universal's for
[10:42] that's here oh yes OK I've already Yes I
self and that's that's ongoing few local
[10:49] be giving us on it's for our kids
[10:51] a card for many years to
come sadly use if I have
[10:54] a new volunteers for is the meat birds
this year that I'm so worried about in
[10:59] a frenzy journalists. I over here with this
fire that is fire and forget just kills
[11:05] you more times it will go right back thank
you so thank you no question just want
[11:10] to know that questions. At conference
that was what it was like 6 15
[11:17] am and 11 o'clock every. Instant
they were really moving.
[11:24] Forward
[11:24] a couple questions on your interest. Just
so do you prepare the names. When they
[11:31] come in or someone just anybody who comes
in with their driver's license or so
[11:35] Prince the name does in France name tag or
in this universe of the camera which has
[11:40] poor lighting right now the
Senate. The camera sets
[11:42] a picture of them and then when they
leave they take the sticker off flash
[11:46] underneath the same scanner and science
and. So what it does is take your driver's
[11:51] license and the barcode on the driver's
license it pulls the name and date of birth
[11:55] and if there is any flags then we get some
denied and we can see the reason for the
[12:01] flag on the other on it's
off whole like F.B.I.
[12:04] Background checks just kind of a quick and
simple name and record match but it's
[12:09] a level of security that we never have so
you have the ability to put in there was
[12:14] so little. I can I can have
[12:17] a blacklist if I want to these are who reach
them would want to get in the building
[12:21] busy they have to tell somebody
why they're so there's
[12:24] a new entry system up at the front the
outside doors open all during the day and
[12:29] the inside door is now have walked so the
drills on the inside kind of like it's
[12:33] a 2nd City school which just makes sense
so once they're in their front you can see
[12:38] that they are on the screen and let them
in she then catches them into her office
[12:44] and that's where they have to sign it if
anyone makes it past Brenda and she goes
[12:48] off and chases and if she doesn't know
who they are she's walking out of school
[12:51] with just aggressive about so at this point
we don't have all it doesn't open into
[12:56] a lot of the sort of can be at least calls
were just not designed for security back
[13:01] in the day but it's
[13:03] a whole lot safer because she sees who's
coming out there and ceases walking and so
[13:06] then they go in and right opposite her
desk is the computer where they sign it so
[13:11] they just kind of click that they're
[13:12] a visitor who they want to visit without
all of the bad as well and and then Brenda
[13:18] or somebody else will escort them through
the building to get where they. Are so
[13:23] that walked in and I. Saw
[13:26] a sign in front of him. So and it doesn't
start until I close the doors so in the
[13:33] morning after the bus is unloaded I do my
announcements and at that point the end
[13:37] of the ounce once I say if there are any
parents left in the building you have to
[13:40] report to the main office. Now to receive
your this or that and because we do have
[13:44] to you know because little ones getting
dropped off still by their parents are
[13:47] often classroom that ends about mid October
and then we stop in the door and the
[13:51] kids come in on their. Persons
and license on. US I'M A So the
[13:58] license is used in the case of vendors and
contractors so we wouldn't necessarily
[14:05] do
[14:05] a license check on one of our parents and.
We really don't want to because we're going
[14:12] to take them to wherever they're meeting
is and then we're going to make sure that
[14:15] they're on their way out afterwards
and we certainly don't want to stop
[14:19] a parent from coming into the building. For
any reason really. But for our vendors
[14:25] and contractors that's
where if they don't have
[14:26] a photo ID you know they're not going to
hear us but parents just take their name
[14:31] and get them if you know you get exact and
we can actually use the same system for
[14:37] kids who come in tardy they can put
their names in and it prints them
[14:40] a tardy slip and gives us
[14:41] a list of all the charges so we don't have
to have those you know duplicate was for
[14:46] Target because they don't have an
attendance clerk. We're the ones. In
[14:53] terms of interior if they're just like
yeah so if we lock down the building
[14:59] well the button that we push
does not allow us that's
[15:02] a lock that door is always locked or
comes from so the lockdown comes in
[15:06] a command through the P.A.
[15:07] System and that means that they're
supposed to lock themselves down lock the
[15:11] classroom door hide all down the blinds
turn out the lights that's how you lock
[15:17] down the common school because the front
door is always long nobody can get in
[15:20] without it. And I just back up to you
[15:27] talk about the grant from
somewhere for an C.S.S.
[15:31] Title for federal grant so they're going
to they're going to go event by some
[15:37] behavior they're going to help us with and
to assess both they have eyes. Behavior
[15:41] and they help us with the lives of.
Children who might otherwise require much
[15:48] more significant investments of time and
energy they help us with so that we may
[15:55] need to change procedures or also use some
point you think if we're doing something
[15:58] . They say they're going to do go see
the other not all that's all the school
[16:04] though OK yeah that's not I mean we
wouldn't have any policies that could be
[16:08] related to classroom discipline the policies
that we have are things like you can't
[16:13] take away recess as it's like that's the
kind of level of policy at the procedural
[16:18] level. I don't think
it's a district we have
[16:22] a whole lot we just kind of set our rules
of the schools so you said look there's
[16:27] a fire here. Yes I have you know I
have one behavior interventionists was
[16:34] hired by us and then I have at this school
this behavior consultant who was hired
[16:39] Renzi I said I also have 3 days a week
school based clinician hired to run C.S.S.
[16:44] Who's able to see
[16:45] a case load of kids who require mental
health counseling and then if we do have
[16:50] several cap workers that's the community
or collaborative achievement team through
[16:56] and C.S.S.
[16:57] And those are the folks who help us with
kiddos who have extreme behaviors which is
[17:04] sort of that next step before
they might have to have
[17:07] a placement out of district so the cat is
an attempt to keep the kid industry. And
[17:13] there are several of those. So we do get
significant support from and which is an
[17:19] amazing partnership with
[17:20] a lot of people around the country I've
never seen it before it is quite brilliant
[17:25] . Else.
[17:33] Because the security for the critic very
very good in the only yes and the time I
[17:39] can go right on line is my. Just how
often I can click it tells me how many
[17:43] visitors are in the building I can put
on and they can see the whole list of
[17:46] visitors including who they're visiting
and how long they've been the building at
[17:49] the end of the day to see if anyone still
signed. So that we can just. Write the
[17:55] end of the day we're not going to in
meetings at the end of the day we're not
[17:58] necessarily sending people in the schools
out of the link We're just kind of
[18:02] bringing them into our meetings and
taking them out. Who need time to.
[18:11] Not come back yet we've never had
[18:13] a situation you know or somebody's trying
to. Print and I know better about.
[18:21] It She's one of us closely
I don't think. I've had
[18:26] a refusal. Of the drivers
of. The young man here.
[18:34] Let's say that we had skin and the idea
of parent mistakenly. We fixed that.
[18:41] But it was
[18:42] a refusal so I did my. Part is that like.
[18:50] That you know so you know the badges I
print out and then we can program these
[18:54] values as
[18:55] a brand is just to work on our door magnets
and so faculty don't need to use that
[19:01] particular system that all but one faculty
are trying to do is if they see somebody
[19:04] that is not an employee and who's walking
in the building they're asked to scoop
[19:09] that person back so the main office
even if we know that even if it's
[19:13] a person who's here all the time and
I did get myself a dirty look I'm
[19:17] a parent who just did not want to be told
that it was time design then you know
[19:21] times are changing and we have to adapt
to those changes just to take substitutes
[19:28] generally have
[19:29] a substitute Bash that we have here. With
so they don't get screwed. Well you know
[19:37] generally not be demanding to know our
substances regularly you know everybody. It
[19:41] was like one new guy that we didn't
know that yet. Keep it up. Oh
[19:48] THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. For
your time Sixers which is the consent
[19:55] agenda I mean the agenda is the approval
of the minutes from 5 September in the
[20:00] approval of the war from this day to city
school for 2 golds and 3 students through
[20:06] Washington D.C.
[20:07] To present the leadership summit. Is there
any reason to pull one of these out of
[20:12] the consent agenda for this question or
separate vote. And if there's no objections
[20:19] these 2 items will be accepted into the
consent agenda are there any. Objections to
[20:24] these 2 items are accepted on the 7th
hole business in the world that.
[20:31] I didn't 8 Vice Chair election. I might
send me an email this week that said he
[20:38] would like to resign as vice chair.
Of the board. Certainly welcome to do
[20:45] that. So we need to question so I would
open the floor for nominations for vice
[20:50] chair or the. Time like
the nominee on center.
[20:58] Second. And the others.
[21:06] Here in London I will close the nomination.
Let's go in favor of electing you know
[21:12] as vice chair to indicate by saying
I I don't oppose extensions. To.
[21:21] Things that you look over the.
Next thing to. Write thank you.
[21:29] It was going to. Be which
is the capital. 80 which
[21:36] is senior privileges. So we have someone
to talk about seeing privileges tonight.
[21:41] Yes that's right there again where we put
the senior class president before you to
[21:47] ask for senior privileges I would like is
that you Mr Colby prove that. Folks who
[21:54] are in
[21:55] a good mood because I have the benefit
we're going to take it easy on this one
[21:59] thing if you can you can oh everybody
come out here that magic would have
[22:04] a very good camera. My name is Colby and
I'm the senior costume council president I
[22:10] believe as you know I'm here for class
permission for seniors to go out every one's
[22:16] time for
[22:17] a little break from school through students
tend to go to restaurants such as new
[22:22] modes or eastern dragon to change for
[22:25] a change of scenery and
food in. Places as well
[22:29] a lot of the hometown this
is really right there was
[22:33] a story I am aware of the contract the
students have to sign and strongly agree
[22:38] with the process of 1st the student then
the parent and then the school minister or
[22:44] so I on the contract so each student is
held responsible for being back to class on
[22:50] time students also have the ability to
lose their per group with this if they
[22:55] violate any part of. The seniors have really
earned these privileges in mind or if
[23:01] you asked me as we worked really
hard all 3 years earlier be
[23:05] a fit for example many of my senior classmates
have been on sports teams where you
[23:10] can come together to work towards
[23:12] a championship as for myself
I can say that I have been
[23:16] a part of 2 championships in hockey and
during the winter back to match my freshman
[23:22] sophomore year it was one of the best
experiences of my life if they also come
[23:28] together as
[23:28] a school during the walkout in response
to the article for Issue school shootings
[23:33] thank you for. Your question.
Can be different from many of
[23:40] the year. OK I'll make
[23:43] a motion to firm start the
discussion. In the 2nd.
[23:51] Thing we did. The same thing we have
every year. Yes it's Chris here
[23:57] Christus No No worries that this is no
changes since I knew he was here because he
[24:03] didn't last a very. Tough.
Rusher we were been told of
[24:09] a class that earned it and deserve everything
we can happen that. They really are
[24:14] a good group we had
[24:15] a very well. Thought productive
session we had our last meeting
[24:21] a couple weeks ago we had
[24:22] a chance to chat will be it was peers and
some of the students mistakenly assumed
[24:28] it proved useful rights and we had to quickly
correct that but it seems though that
[24:33] they need to go through the process that
that's part of the learning it's ready
[24:36] a privilege and to compete with forged need
to ask for that privilege and that you
[24:41] need to maintain that privilege for
[24:44] a proper kind. Of time
to go. And mostly on
[24:50] long days people do it yes
there is enough time.
[24:57] There we grab let's see who's there you
know who would you it's really hard but on
[25:02] if you keep the slaves here in the
movies or some sums of money for
[25:05] a change you know we have
[25:07] a motion the 2nd the far. Great credit
here now I'm sorry will speak up.
[25:15] And your questions I just want to say that
Colby put it very good says because. Of
[25:21] his appreciation. For you I
believe that most of your. 3
[25:28] questions I'll. Take that as
[25:33] a no from him now that you're. All right
let's go there's no more questions or
[25:39] more should we have 2nd or was
[25:41] a very very good by saying I'm right I
suppose the residents. In this resolution
[25:48] are
[25:48] a very honest yes I think you have to be
your friend to be hurried start doing things
[25:53] like. OK
[26:00] that brings a running mate see it which is
[26:02] a face capital form request just. Hold
your hand you have to stick with me but I
[26:09] got I moved to revoke
senior durable goods right.
[26:16] Carol from request Michel Martin but that's
just so their field is looking to do
[26:22] projects that are. Actually working
last use of capital research funds but
[26:29] to get accurate figures for those
projects we actually need to get
[26:36] a engineer an architect services down
in so we are requesting that the board
[26:42] authorize the access of the capital reserve
funds to pay for these $2.00 studies
[26:48] for
[26:48] a total of $12285.00 to $2.00
projects or were. Possibly
[26:55] paving the parking area in
additional classroom space.
[27:05] It's going to roll out sure about.
The. Have significant run off course
[27:12] in our unpaved parts of our are
not and every end up having
[27:17] a lot of holes and did this throughout the
course of the year or buses trying to
[27:22] get through people are trying to walk on
that when it's icy so having unpaved parts
[27:28] of the lot has always been
[27:29] a little bit dangerous so what we're looking
at is the possibility of paving where
[27:34] the buses are paving directly across from
the school right where the cars park
[27:39] adjacent to the hill that goes up to the
play structure and then also over on the
[27:44] south of the building there's
[27:46] a large parking area over there those areas
are difficult to ice in the winter and
[27:52] are quite dangerous so in order to do
those projects or even consider those
[27:57] projects we need to do
[27:59] a study on each drainage on the environmental
factors on all the different bits and
[28:04] pieces that would go into paving over
currently on paper land you just can't do
[28:07] that so that's part one part 2 of has to
do with potentially not using the common
[28:14] school any longer which of course is
not 88 compliant nor is it. Nor is it
[28:21] our building really so when things go wrong
there's always the question of you know
[28:26] who's going to pay is that the landlord or
is it the $10.00 and we don't currently
[28:29] pay rent down there but that may be changing
we don't know so what we're looking at
[28:33] is the possibility that
adding an art room and
[28:37] a music room they would be modular buildings
similar in type They're not designed
[28:43] to do the modular building that we added
at City school last year and so we are
[28:48] looking at potentially putting those buildings
on the pad we're currently there as
[28:54] a fire house what used to be the fire house
for the town that is just all storage
[28:59] right now the other possibility is just
adding those 2 classrooms onto the back of
[29:05] the 1964 wing at one of the sides of the
gym that wing was. Originally built for
[29:11] such an expansion so we're trying to figure
out what's going to be the most cost
[29:17] effective because we don't want a
$1000000.00 project we don't want
[29:20] a bond at all we want to be able to do
this is an expensive way as possible but
[29:24] still get the benefit of 20 to 30 years out
of whatever we put up at the very least
[29:29] so the engineer my original plan was just
to look at the firehouse the engineer who
[29:33] came out and looked at it said
well let's take a look at
[29:35] a couple of other spots where we might be
able to work as well and so part of this
[29:39] is
[29:39] a feasibility study for where those passions
like so this would be. And you know into
[29:46] the building as well the portable correct
or the possibility of doing the portable
[29:52] classrooms up here rather than down there
so it's kind of 3 parts you take into
[29:58] account. The last heating
time period hits.
[30:06] If you're here. To get there you know so
yeah it's just like the comments or I mean
[30:12] that's what we've got to
do for years which is
[30:14] a huge loss of time and also you know not
the best to have our little ones walking
[30:20] close to a busy road with
[30:21] a blind corner because sometimes they take
off and those are the terrifying moments
[30:26] so you know ideally if we went behind the
gym on either side there they might go
[30:33] outside the building instead of building
an enclosed hallway but they go right back
[30:37] into the building so it would be very very
quick and easy and uncovered what if we
[30:42] did it over here if we do it over there
part of the parking lot will be adding
[30:46] a sidewalk along around this part of the
building down to the firehouse so that
[30:51] they're not walking in the middle of the
road because right now that's the only way
[30:54] to get down there so yeah I mean last
teaching time is what it is but you know cost
[30:59] effectiveness you know we have to be wise
stewards of the money the taxpayers given
[31:04] us so you know if it is significantly
less expensive to do it down there even
[31:09] though we're still going to have. Some
last teaching time in music in art we have
[31:12] to consider that as an as an option. So
I just don't want you to focus on the
[31:19] monitor or build. The answer from the
beginning let's let all the information come
[31:24] in for
[31:25] a number of other reasons
security. Lasting longer closure.
[31:33] And stick with mind why don't look like yes
or mind wide open whatever he comes up
[31:38] with because they are looking at the
possibility of adding on over there too so you
[31:42] know I feel like that's probably more
expensive significantly but we'll know with
[31:46] earliest I mean we'll see if so
does this engineer have copies of
[31:53] the 3 or 4 different incarnations of building
projects of the last 12 years he has
[31:59] not asked for those because some of those
building projects will be much much
[32:03] larger in scope so I don't know that that's
necessarily useful to him but once we
[32:07] get the approval to start the process then
I do have all of those plans and I'll
[32:12] hand him absolutely everything that we have
or have done before but I ask is there
[32:16] some foundation issues over where you're
talking about the middle school and I
[32:20] think he just read then he got it time
might say some hours dollars by the hour I
[32:25] don't know. As John Baxter of course. Had
John's open to moving it over here he
[32:32] thinks that's the purpose he has for
[32:33] a long time yeah but if they're foundation
issues then that's worth knowing
[32:37] a lot. Yeah the big one.
Yeah. I have all those
[32:43] drawings and all the details from all those
games as well. So that the study for
[32:49] the. Throw for. The study for the
classroom could be 3 different days.
[32:58] Yeah and maybe that's because the environmental
impacts educating project are such
[33:04] that they were firing
[33:05] a different level of study the present
adding on to this building probably doesn't
[33:09] have the same level of
[33:09] a. Milind paving over and they've got
that's fake we have to wait to watch for
[33:16] training and what is the time frame that.
We're hoping is that their opposition
[33:23] to going forward in. This time
[33:29] frankly but I would say it would probably
be in time to possibly. Do something in
[33:36] the spring. That would be
awful I saw someone depending
[33:43] on obviously what comes up the report you
know depending on where minutes shirts
[33:49] and what I'm just wondering how. Long
it's going to do with them. That's really
[33:55] what. Got us in this together or to be able
to bring it back to you right you know
[34:01] that. You know. Given that I thought
it was something I think I thought
[34:07] a great something Martha
there were there was
[34:09] a 17000 dollar number also I can't
find the attachment. Was another
[34:16] number of related to something like
this so this is 12. 1000 companies
[34:23] OK since $74.00. Thank
you. And this approach to
[34:30] them will see me in the light. Well and
we will be awarded this we will get
[34:36] specifics as to what the time frame will
be. Pointing means for the study or for
[34:41] the good of the state of the study so yeah
yeah I. Do believe as we do it before
[34:47] the 1st freeze is one of the parts he is
to dig into all of the other paved areas
[34:54] that could be us we should. Understand.
We're going to survey Genesis it was
[35:00] a terrible daughter but up until then
yeah but they have had to dig in and they
[35:04] have to figure out well where the sub
base is they have to know what's going on
[35:06] there before they get to campus or pave
over anything physical cracker. You've
[35:10] heard it all those other things OK. Well
that's for the old I'm from my health so
[35:15] it's just yeah so I'll make
[35:17] a motion to observe this and the
right side. And further discussion
[35:25] and the question is good and consulting
or just one company this is the company
[35:30] this is recommended for this particular
project that will leave cross consulting is
[35:34] done quite a bit for us that we have
[35:36] a relationship with then I did not go any
further than that so it's just it is
[35:40] there some kind of rule
that says when you hit
[35:42] a certain level you have to know
all right now for engineering.
[35:49] Since this is where you do not get those.
Bills and this is what. We use and what
[35:56] yes we discussed. These
are going to figure out.
[36:03] New push. Right we are motion we have 2nd
all those in favor indicated by saying I
[36:09] already. Proposed
suggestions. They say which.
[36:18] Resist I did not warn or approve
or rushing to prove once in
[36:23] a motion to approve the warrants.
A drouth. We're not going to
[36:30] change a date. In
[36:33] a discussion 6 months or.
No session and we're
[36:40] now like Oh Dave really good by
saying I write both sections.
[36:47] And 0 words are proved. You're
going to dress for. Your.
[36:55] Good evening everybody I don't have much
this time but the one thing I wanted to do
[37:00] with Sean has offered. To help me with
it is. We've talked a couple times
[37:07] a bust. Our new phone
system. It is true. But
[37:13] like I said that's
[37:14] a lot of. The book. I have recommended
that you could do or said you could move
[37:22] to the nicest prices right where you thought
it was going to call home temporarily
[37:26] for till then yeah right back.
I would say it's probably
[37:33] 95 percent there throughout this is
the district we still give. Kids.
[37:43] Sean if you could give them some ideas of
[37:45] a few things. Absolutely these are neat
little phones day what's really really
[37:52] nice for I think our district is that when
Joanne is calling me from central office
[37:57] I can just see the Joanne's extension
strain so we're all it's kind of like being
[38:00] at the hospital and out of what building
you're and you're all on one phone system
[38:04] so I can go such little person
dial someone's named Kevin T.
[38:09] I R T age and it just have and of course
Actually dollars friend I'm having but
[38:14] that's
[38:15] a different story and so it has boys they
can let you know via e-mail that you have
[38:20] a voicemail it is obviously
the conference call could use
[38:24] a little bit more volume but it's
[38:27] a really nice system some
of the administrators have
[38:30] a tablet this is hash to it as well but
there were some growing pains with that of
[38:35] course as with anything you can just get
old copper lines running our fire and all
[38:39] these other security things so Martin the
team has been working on that it's really
[38:44] very nice upgrade for all over phones
throughout the district so if you have
[38:48] a call if you see it I can see it's him
and run out of my office very quickly go
[38:51] back and let nobody answers or go to anywhere
that. Yes it's voice over IP So this
[38:57] is internet phone so we're not using the
old server telephone so with the Internet
[39:02] upgrades What speed are you
getting to those places D.S.L.
[39:06] Or do we do they run fiber fibers.
That's fiber Yeah dark fiber Yes Well
[39:13] kind of fiber dark fiber I don't know if
that connects us to it nor even address of
[39:19] the school district so we actually have the
same network as the rest of the school
[39:23] district now is not completely separate OK
So we have we have 5 or that's very good
[39:29] very high speed we have good Internet
in the building here and as most of the
[39:33] buildings I believe. Still if there is no
other phones is that here that people are
[39:38] calling common school it's only that
we're not paying record bills there are
[39:44] several bills with one sole They got
[39:46] a direct extension and we can have transferred
all those right now do they still
[39:50] have the old phones they are no our old
phones have been reset collected and
[39:54] recycled here in. Perth. These things.
[40:04] And that's it for me pretty
sure. Ministries report.
[40:11] Done will be predicted I don't
know where it is in your area.
[40:20] Principal. Or the 1st 3. Things
[40:27] we are just
[40:28] a couple of announcements on. Next week
is our spirit confirming we are excited
[40:34] about that future doing
[40:36] a lot of good planing for those events both
the public support for doing so I hope
[40:42] to see as many of you here that would be
wonderful. If yesterday's faculty meeting
[40:47] Jenny Harrison you have presented I mean
people who are training that was very
[40:53] important to Bernie and I did
want to mention too that. We had
[40:58] a moment of silence to one of our
allies from. That great memory and
[41:05] was very respectful opportunity for us for
our kids so. I just think it's important
[41:11] to make sure we. Know of
[41:15] a human faces but I
also want to see you in
[41:19] a green and gold are. The same form
is that I think this could be due
[41:26] to our faculty at the beginning of the
school year or so keeps you up to date on
[41:32] most of the things including our
new reorganization Streeter's.
[41:40] Our professional development plan
all the correspondence that.
[41:47] Are there now for the structure of the
world your research team some of the
[41:51] principles of behavior measured that we
tried to incorporate and and just it would
[41:57] be very useful to you as we go forward to
understand the big picture I don't see
[42:03] that we've presented that we believe
you're in trouble if you do come. I'm told
[42:09] that there is the chair. Of the perfectly
[42:16] happiness I. Think. And also
the the power point that
[42:23] you present at the beginning to look at
some of those big items and some of the
[42:27] themes so I do so so if you have
[42:29] a chance to work through that and if you
have any questions at all obviously people
[42:34] are calling it live to respond to what the
any of those items or anything else that
[42:39] comes up as far as the effects so.
You're just going to be if your
[42:46] receiver is where it's their parents that
you know to protect their students yes
[42:52] thank you for get up to students who
students would serve no use next week and.
[42:58] Letters should be leaving the office
tomorrow to all those your superiors and
[43:04] guidance is in charge of our of the site
that are going through the. When that
[43:11] isn't that the children are going to be
recognized in that regard on that we.
[43:19] Are that has got those folks have not been
chosen yet I know our goodbyes have been
[43:23] working over the last several months
to try to retrieve that is in place
[43:27] nominations have been. MADE IN THOSE
students know who they are then they've been
[43:32] able to apply but no violence
elections occurred here.
[43:41] And we're going to you. Know Now that's
if this is the last crisis and then
[43:48] a great level for sure and I think the
right wing's here now with you know if
[43:55] they're doing informational I guess are
you getting. Questions about how they
[44:02] are 60 percent of people here.
In the incoming class going
[44:09] about proficiency since I think is yes we're
really working. Or we've been working
[44:14] toward and that to me is
[44:16] a profound change relative to unknowingly
grading and scoring but instruction.
[44:24] As you probably know the
proficiency is break up
[44:26] a very important things for most students
to be able to know and do this stuff
[44:30] multiple things lumped into one greater
number. So we present that beginning of the
[44:36] year we're now entering year 3. And
despite some bumps along the way
[44:44] I think we've now if we're at
[44:45] a point where. Proficiency sort of become
part of the culture of our learning I
[44:52] have gotten increasingly messaging to
call us at the beginning of the year got
[44:56] a really nice interview
with them actually got
[44:58] a call from. The National
Network to enough T.V.
[45:01] Network
[45:02] a line of OK She asked me about proficiency
test and specifically about her mind
[45:08] and act so he. Severs proficiency is working
how are. Personally 3 things working
[45:16] so I think. We we're at
[45:21] a place where it's becoming really part of
[45:23] a work do we have that one more class in
this year's class graduating class or not
[45:27] proficiency is. If you could
change in our. Software to.
[45:34] Our learning and procedure for the speed
differences are pretty unique A. Student
[45:41] partner. Would probably some changes
I would have made in retrospect but.
[45:49] The directions always been clear I think
now we're really level of understanding
[45:54] there's always sound the research base
was already there and. I think it's just
[45:59] going to be here it's just all students
or immerse proficiency but you can. Use
[46:06] it against. The last class and we're doing
great and then the next class is going
[46:12] to find out how does that work I mean I
know what's working on it or. How that's
[46:19] going on playing to this yeah
if you are going to be have
[46:23] a session last year to get to that was
probably the hardest offer you know to fish
[46:29] not so much the change to
try to identify with the Q.
[46:33] Learning is but really with the overall
impact would be here how would you act
[46:37] towards no excuses for us to try to make
sure that the. The traditional aspects of
[46:44] school and scholastic recognition are in
place some schools of goodwill with some
[46:49] of the Republicans really would do to
maintain that so. Of course particular that
[46:55] is the college acceptance process we have
refused others from multiple called to
[47:00] speak with us and speak with their
very. Widely group conversation
[47:06] a lot of good questions were asked you
probably have about 3040 people because I
[47:10] wonder if there's ever a
full order of this is
[47:12] a big enough topic that maybe you want to
make it an agenda item or certainly there
[47:17] because I think this could be
[47:18] a presentation in itself you were there I
mean we are we're off the agenda for her
[47:22] I'm sorry I just I just don't see it and
realize she was aware of it I think it's
[47:27] it's really good stuff and
it's very interesting I think
[47:29] a lot of people want to hear it on. So I
think it I think it's appropriate and it's
[47:34] justified to make it an agenda
item on and turn it into
[47:39] a board presentation yes I very much there
are opportunities it's. Also one sure
[47:45] wooden box to bring food for us to use for
yesterday's would be an understatement
[47:49] Yeah I think you deal
with that and there was
[47:52] a yes thank you I think with some of the
multiple on these contributors to do all
[47:58] staged around proficiency of culture getting
used to it most in finding that. They
[48:04] can be can determine through the. Proper
kids and focus when she should be included
[48:10] into that process that part of the process
we haven't experienced. In the work with
[48:16] other words in the make
you think you know just
[48:19] a really quick last question is it going
to be an informational meeting for parents
[48:23] in regards to Christian sees the way there
was last year is there going to be one
[48:28] this year doesn't plan.
It's more OK. Thanks.
[48:36] Are there anything you want to. Do that
have these simple questions for me.
[48:46] That. Don't. So tonight you
have come to our federal
[48:53] word so I thank you for that I also
showed you there's 3 different jobs I'm
[48:56] students how to apply to be able to go
they had actually sent us an application.
[49:02] Many of them did
[49:03] a video application so they did almost
like an audition to be able to be on stage
[49:07] so we have selected the students
who will go with us to D.C.
[49:11] And then we found out that
after we returned from D.C.
[49:14] And we also had a live weapon Our that
goes worldwide. And that's working with
[49:19] a weapon our firm and it's another part of
our work that we didn't know about it so
[49:22] something new that they've
added so we will have
[49:25] a group doing the weapon are there to be
different in the group that goes to D.C.
[49:29] We also doubled the number of students
from taking. Because we had kind of tech
[49:33] savvy aboard Grant Marc is going to be so
happy I'm going to actually use this one
[49:38] and probably been there for about 8 years
one of those and it was the one that Lucy
[49:43] do every day and it got me
[49:44] a long time ago. And so I talked to Lucy
about what I wanted to use it for and she
[49:49] was. All in favor of doing that so we're
going to double the number of students
[49:54] we're taking will be taking
6 students with us. And
[49:58] a lot of the younger students applied so
the 4th grade to 6th grade students were
[50:03] the ones that were the most and even
applications which is really kind of cool. And
[50:09] so they all the students be finding out
on Friday that who got which different
[50:13] section and. So we're
excited we're making it
[50:17] a little bit bigger it's an amazing
opportunity I want to go for one night and I
[50:22] was told that I didn't understand the
field where it really had to be tonight
[50:26] because they had to go to the capital the
next day and meet with the Senate and the
[50:31] House and that that was part of it and that
we were expected to tweet along the way
[50:37] everything we were doing. OK And so we're
going to tell you tonight we're going to
[50:41] night and I think you have so out of where
you basically go in for 2 nights and so
[50:46] that's all pretty much going to be set
up by them but we're going to hold
[50:49] a number of people and. So as if
that wasn't enough to play on.
[50:56] The last week. We were
asking for and that's to
[51:03] be if they could look at our music room
to see if it would be a good set for
[51:08] a movie. And I thought nothing of intention
on of you to look at our music or we
[51:12] didn't think
[51:13] a thing of it they absolutely fell in love
with the building the movies about maple
[51:17] sugar bring they fell in love with the maple
mural they fell in love with the fact
[51:21] that we have our own sugar house they love
the music classrooms and so on October
[51:27] 6th they will be shooting the elementary
classroom scenes and saying open. City
[51:32] school and 15 of our students will have
an opportunity to be extras in this movie
[51:37] those students are Edition in tomorrow.
And some day after that will go back to
[51:43] just to explain to him that they're going
to what who's doing this movie is and if
[51:48] and then there is a national
studio. So there is
[51:54] a link here with the marshals who put us
in charge and touch with them OK. The name
[52:00] of the movie is so many times it's one of
their their target that they're going to
[52:06] be selling it to so I'm assuming it's
pretty much independent will be like
[52:09] a hall mark movie Oh thank you an
idea what it's like yeah well it's
[52:13] a romantic comedy but it's really more on
the Hallmark lifetime type of steam room
[52:20] to really buy into Vermont women you know
the directors from. The director is from
[52:26] Milton Well I hope he's the director and
he's the staging set up person but he's
[52:32] from Milton and they were
looking for a place to do
[52:35] a movie around me and they were looking
in Waitsfield and listen Mark said why
[52:41] wouldn't you go to the maple capital went
to stay open and then she put them in
[52:46] touch with
[52:47] a few schools and when they came they fell
in love with the city and that was just
[52:51] last week so this is moving very fast in
October since that would be all over. But
[52:56] anyhow it's exciting. You
really like me to follow up on
[53:03] an award to Washington in
[53:04] a movie right here. Well I will say
that yes you are getting OK We had
[53:12] our 2nd meeting we were chosen I
think to join hands with the N.E.A.
[53:17] Grant for the pair of entering programs
so we have 12 para educator mentors
[53:24] and they each have
[53:25] a person that they're mentoring right now
and Julie Longchamp in conjunction with
[53:29] the N.E.A.
[53:29] Has been coming and doing. Classes
with the mentors in the mentees and
[53:37] they came into the Today thing which they.
Started before school and they just did
[53:42] a follow up when we have a couple
more that we're doing on but he spent
[53:47] a great experience I think for the mentors
and. For the people who work with.
[53:54] Me But I know it will be sorry. If. You
[54:01] leave the ground ready to go and
when I do that this. Week in the
[54:09] summer you get
[54:10] a few that were all of our programs didn't
gather and we introduced all of the
[54:16] staff to make sure the students know all
of the resources available to them and
[54:20] they. Would work with except. On the
teachers because you know they're seeking.
[54:29] To train. For that kind of. An event that
[54:36] happened last week was and you have heard
technology program was partnering with
[54:41] the city last week on the College Green
Belt tree planting and local city and then
[54:46] by reason the city that trees that provides
some places where we can live and so
[54:53] the city was very happy to have 14 shopping
bodies to help I think that happened I
[54:58] believe Dr Drew by that song for
the. Students. And if you also
[55:05] notice that. I think it would of course
students they did the same thing on the big
[55:11] planters in the park so that you see then
that makes the city so beautiful so you
[55:15] would probably. Have the best so I saw
them across the park and I really think
[55:22] that it was
[55:22] a work crew from Brisbane like I Love You
know I don't know what about that until I
[55:27] really didn't Archambault because
I'm going to have like some B.S.A.
[55:31] Going. Good identifier
really building in the US is
[55:35] a room where you think. I've been put
together with the younger Yes So that's for
[55:41] their safety really great that was done
about it I do think they are going to like
[55:46] chicken take Yeah there are some really
to get will soon I'm so hurt that for him
[55:52] they will be getting their own clothing
that will accept driver technology on it
[55:57] and you know boots and such because they're
going to be out in all of the elk and
[56:01] all elements so thank you for trying it
for tention we certainly don't want to
[56:07] really not look at my work even to
so trip until the price I will take
[56:14] before. He said anything then yes in
your board package you may have an
[56:20] excerpt from the sale of your. Students.
[56:28] And I brought this for you and I would say
Have you. Ever said lens is for the sad
[56:35] we want to highlight the Northwest technical
center we want to bring it to the
[56:40] forefront of the city and
that's our spend was
[56:44] a LONG as well so what this is called is
leaders of tomorrow and every single week
[56:50] during the school year and there will be
[56:52] a new student teacher and the best part
about it is it creates that claiming
[56:58] connection so it's interesting that
it talks about the program to the
[57:05] program there and at the Technical Center
it talks about their credentials or their
[57:10] college credits that they aren't or are
currently in the process of. And it talks
[57:15] about the employer connections where I think
Job shadows for place and internships
[57:21] and in this particular
case like I said it's
[57:23] a student from Fairfield he's in the public
safety and fire services program and he
[57:29] has a connection to the
scene and Eastern. It's
[57:33] a Cape Town and there is Sergeant
Jason Johnson bought. For him.
[57:40] And it talks about what he wants to do in
the future and that his educational plans
[57:44] which he wants to go into the air
force and dissipate military police.
[57:52] Military.
[58:00] Tour just
[58:01] a couple things the 1st just want to highlight
we had our annual soccer every this
[58:05] weekend with over 10 teams it was an aide
to former events teams from all around
[58:10] Franklin County and it was
[58:11] a beautiful day and it was well
attended and the players had
[58:14] a lot of fun game to come together all in
one space and play in Mary Rose because I
[58:19] want to work in that one off quite well the
other are events that are coming up on
[58:24] Friday and the 21st at $630.00 we have our
what is obviously the mind kickoff of
[58:28] the cafeteria so many students are fairly
similar to the interest and what actually
[58:32] is obviously the mind is that time of year
we start taking names of students to be
[58:36] interested in and trying to put together
teams and so any families that might see
[58:41] this and we've been having on our website
on Facebook pages and when tape shows the
[58:46] organizer and so anyone who's
curious about it there's
[58:50] a link on the for parents section of our
website so any any students around naval
[58:54] run are interested and they can contact
them and through that through e-mails or
[58:58] any way the word out to the other schools
Yes Lynn Lynn had sent that out to
[59:01] everybody deserving it needs range from out
of the cover obviously the bridges were
[59:05] out of school all the way from there is the
primary team which is you know usually
[59:10] 1st grade 2nd grade particularly given our
own student all the way through on 8th
[59:15] grade in a few years ago we did have
[59:16] a group of high school students
who were on put together
[59:19] a team as well and so that's going on and
then the only other thing is that we're
[59:24] trying to take off pharmacy school that's
[59:25] a factor in creating greater connections
so we did some reach out under open house
[59:30] and we're holding a regional
gathering on our cars. Or
[59:32] a lot of. That is in our school library.
After Hours think it starts at 330 to
[59:38] 43 officers trying to create those connections
and get that started so there seems
[59:43] to be
[59:43] a real push rise to tease been really
helpful in getting that whole concept going
[59:48] we're pushing I reach out to Rachel often
to quite poignant and really helping us.
[59:55] Organize that stuff that's what we
have on great gift. In the Senate.
[1:00:05] And with you. Here in
[1:00:07] a presentation of this from big. Brother
[1:00:15] . Who.
[1:00:27] Is the very near future
will be talking about
[1:00:29] a 5 year plea and who we are for this year
could be just gets more work to do the
[1:00:35] news just to. Read enough
good on the slow road.
[1:00:42] To any movement on the reason that the.
[1:00:51] But. Right now we are going
to be gearing up to getting
[1:00:58] the star getting the credits from the net
media. As far as the actual installation
[1:01:03] of the solo project I
haven't seen it in recent.
[1:01:11] Years you know so I I just have
[1:01:13] a comment on I would respectfully request
that we not have the discussion of
[1:01:18] columns poorly at the at the meeting that
might occur on the 17th of October if
[1:01:24] that's going to be the day I will be in
Wisconsin that week and I'd just like to be
[1:01:29] present there enough thanks.

[1:01:33] a pressing. National resist have
the conversation OK Thank you.

in just over an hour from your partners
