See that I frankly before our superintendent Ruth Nielsen,

3
00:00:34,430 --> 00:00:36,510

4
00:00:36,930 --> 00:00:38,450
and repeat art legal counsel.

5
00:00:39,030 --> 00:00:42,030

Dave Rowe, Frank Davell, Alicia Redett, and Mark Perry.

8
00:00:48,830 --> 00:00:52,670
We will now proceed to our action items for today's meeting.

9
00:00:53,550 --> 00:00:55,970
So we will, first person on our agenda,

10
00:00:56,310 --> 00:00:59,710
is I'm going to turn the time over to Dr. Taylor.

11
00:01:02,190 --> 00:01:06,950
So we have a lot of pieces in play in the next question.

12
00:01:07,150 --> 00:01:09,650
I get to move the first two pieces first.

13
00:01:09,830 --> 00:01:11,110
I'm very excited to have you all here.

14
00:01:12,070 --> 00:01:14,450
I make the motion to a point in the only hi-hat

15
00:01:14,450 --> 00:01:15,810
as civil rights coordinator.

16
00:01:19,020 --> 00:01:21,420
We have a motion to a point in the only hi-hat

17
00:01:21,420 --> 00:01:22,240
to be able to second.

18
00:01:23,380 --> 00:01:24,820
Seconded by Brian Rowley,

19
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:26,220
all in favor say hi.

20
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:27,180
All right.

21
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:28,420
And in your post.

22
00:01:29,220 --> 00:01:34,680
And right, that motion passes in on his way and we'd like to invite you up to the stand

23
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:35,400
at this time.

24
00:01:37,820 --> 00:01:41,260
So, I've had a little thing I was supposed to read, sitting here on the phone, so.

25
00:01:42,340 --> 00:01:46,720
Emily brings 12 years of extensive educational experience to this role, including her nine

26
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,040
years instead of that service at the Naval School District.

27
00:01:49,700 --> 00:01:53,500
She began her career teaching in Providence Hall Charter School for three years before joining

28
00:01:53,500 --> 00:01:56,200
the team at Landmark High School after five years of landmark.

29
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,980
mark. She served as the dean of students at St. Louis, Jr., where she spent the last

30
00:01:59,980 --> 00:02:04,880
three years as a system principal. A colleague stated, Emily High brings many strengths to

31
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,940
her position at the district office. Emily has always been willing to tackle whatever challenges

32
00:02:08,940 --> 00:02:14,420
come her way and to do so with complete professionalism. She is known for the thorough manner in which

33
00:02:14,420 --> 00:02:20,460
she approaches all aspects of her job. She gets the most dependable and always falls up. She

34
00:02:20,460 --> 00:02:24,720
is not afraid to have part conversations with both parents and students when needed. At the

35
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:30,060
At the same time Emily is very fair and always drives free bill-connected relationships with the students she works with.

36
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,120
She's also extremely knowledgeable and sharp when it comes to anything education related.

37
00:02:35,020 --> 00:02:39,840
And it's these many talents and more that make Emily high in a tremendous addition to the district office and her new position.

38
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,260
Emily is very dispensary and they're the proud parents of three children, currently a full mom mode.

39
00:02:44,980 --> 00:02:48,400
Emily spent most of her time outside for her playing with and caring for her kids.

40
00:02:48,580 --> 00:02:52,400
When she does, I know when the solitude changes, swimming, reading, cooking, and being forced.

41
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,960
And my personal motto is children are the key to a successful future.

42
00:02:57,220 --> 00:02:58,580
We fail when we fail ourselves.

43
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,180
Every student deserves a chance to learn and make mistakes.

44
00:03:01,620 --> 00:03:02,380
Thank you for all these interviews.

45
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:04,820
Thank you.

46
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,220
I want to thank all of you.

47
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,740
I am really passionate about this position and I wanted it a lot.

48
00:03:10,460 --> 00:03:16,280
I love the one aspect of my job that I love the most, that the junior highest is the principal.

49
00:03:16,460 --> 00:03:21,820
If you can believe it is working with kids who are there's reasons to celebrate,

50
00:03:21,820 --> 00:03:23,880
But there's also mistakes being made with kids.

51
00:03:24,300 --> 00:03:26,280
And when I work with those kids, when they make mistakes,

52
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,160
I love being an advocate for the victims,

53
00:03:29,180 --> 00:03:32,340
but also being restorative with the people

54
00:03:32,340 --> 00:03:34,060
that have made mistakes in students,

55
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:35,680
that have made mistakes, that they are kids.

56
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,260
And we love them, regardless.

57
00:03:38,100 --> 00:03:39,760
So thank you so much for this position.

58
00:03:49,660 --> 00:03:51,280
Thank you so much, Emily and John.

59
00:03:51,420 --> 00:03:51,860
I'm coming up.

60
00:03:55,170 --> 00:03:55,590
Oh, see.

61
00:03:55,770 --> 00:03:57,910
I make the motion to a point typical one way.

62
00:03:58,870 --> 00:03:59,810
It also is super.

63
00:03:59,970 --> 00:04:00,790
No levels to remember.

64
00:04:01,830 --> 00:04:02,730
Sorry, I do it right.

65
00:04:02,970 --> 00:04:03,270
Sorry.

66
00:04:11,350 --> 00:04:18,530
We have a motion to appoint Tiffany Miley as the middle-level supervisor, and we have a second

67
00:04:18,530 --> 00:04:18,950
on that.

68
00:04:29,870 --> 00:04:35,670
So Tiffany brings at the same age 27 years of dedicated service with an indivisible school district of the seminal.

69
00:04:36,110 --> 00:04:42,310
She began her career at Springfield Junior High. She's been 14 years in the classroom teaching my children English.

70
00:04:42,310 --> 00:04:42,990
for the last three years.

71
00:04:43,590 --> 00:04:45,170
For the joy of it, and there it was.

72
00:04:48,130 --> 00:04:48,570
There we go.

73
00:04:49,170 --> 00:04:54,230
Early leadership journey began as the Dean of Students at Strangle Generine for two years,

74
00:04:54,430 --> 00:04:59,450
all about four years as a step principal at Strangle Brain School, or she also served as the

75
00:04:59,450 --> 00:05:00,630
administrator of rural creation.

76
00:05:00,950 --> 00:05:04,310
For the past seven years, Tiffany has led Strangle Generine School.

77
00:05:04,890 --> 00:05:06,490
And Holly said, wow, we're going to begin.

78
00:05:06,670 --> 00:05:09,690
Tiffany and Holly is truly a consummate educator.

79
00:05:10,070 --> 00:05:12,490
She has created a legacy of her administrator career.

80
00:05:12,490 --> 00:05:14,230
She's been loved by her faculty and staff.

81
00:05:14,230 --> 00:05:16,210
She's loved them with a vision of shared leadership.

82
00:05:16,810 --> 00:05:19,150
And because of the support and ownership she has given them,

83
00:05:19,210 --> 00:05:21,670
they have created a school culture that strives for excellence

84
00:05:21,670 --> 00:05:22,650
in all that they do.

85
00:05:23,310 --> 00:05:27,750
Typically, truly sees big ideas, along with the small accompanying

86
00:05:27,750 --> 00:05:29,730
details of all the ones, and is able to create

87
00:05:29,730 --> 00:05:31,370
and orchestrate frameworks of success

88
00:05:31,370 --> 00:05:33,410
for both faculty and students because of this.

89
00:05:33,750 --> 00:05:35,250
It's amazing to see an action.

90
00:05:35,650 --> 00:05:37,070
This is great talent.

91
00:05:37,590 --> 00:05:40,170
And so many other businesses will benefit

92
00:05:40,170 --> 00:05:42,990
at Ingalls Road District in her new role for years to come.

93
00:05:43,210 --> 00:05:45,190
When she isn't surveying our schools,

94
00:05:45,770 --> 00:05:48,170
Tiffany Joyce-Trowell, Crossage reading, eating out,

95
00:05:48,510 --> 00:05:50,210
and cherishing time with her friends and family

96
00:05:50,210 --> 00:05:51,930
upon her appointment is when I was shared.

97
00:05:52,210 --> 00:05:54,590
I appreciate all of the faculty and staff members

98
00:05:54,590 --> 00:05:56,270
who have had the opportunity to work with the Spring

99
00:05:56,270 --> 00:05:58,170
of June or Spring of High and Oak Ridge School.

100
00:05:58,770 --> 00:06:00,570
I've learned so much from these amazing educators

101
00:06:00,570 --> 00:06:02,510
and I am grateful for all they do for our students.

102
00:06:05,390 --> 00:06:06,530
On top line of the military,

103
00:06:06,750 --> 00:06:08,650
on the sign is something that will be brilliant,

104
00:06:09,050 --> 00:06:10,410
children, and I am happy.

105
00:06:10,410 --> 00:06:11,370
I

106
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,580
just want to express my appreciation to the Board and to

107
00:06:17,580 --> 00:06:21,340
superintendents for the trust that you're relating with this

108
00:06:21,340 --> 00:06:26,660
no-appointment. I have loved my time in the Bus School District. I

109
00:06:26,660 --> 00:06:30,700
could not have asked for a better space to land as a brand new first-year

110
00:06:30,700 --> 00:06:36,940
teacher in 1999 as an intern from out of state. And so the fact that I'm standing

111
00:06:36,940 --> 00:06:42,980
here now is kind of unbelievable to me. The faculty is that I have

112
00:06:42,980 --> 00:06:46,540
have been part of, has been so incredibly supportive.

113
00:06:47,340 --> 00:06:50,440
And I am so, so grateful for all the leaders

114
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,020
who have networked me over the years,

115
00:06:53,280 --> 00:06:54,460
so many in this room.

116
00:06:55,180 --> 00:06:57,940
And I just hope to be able to pay it forward

117
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,780
and to support administrators, educators,

118
00:07:01,260 --> 00:07:02,980
and students throughout me as well, too.

119
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:03,700
Thank you.

120
00:07:12,770 --> 00:07:13,910
Thank you, sir King.

121
00:07:14,970 --> 00:07:16,630
All right, it's people all the time.

122
00:07:16,790 --> 00:07:18,150
I urge you to begin.

123
00:07:23,350 --> 00:07:29,970
Okay. Wow. I thought, let's get my mic on. I didn't sound very well. I thought you were going to have a little more or so.

124
00:07:30,370 --> 00:07:31,990
Okay, we're going to move a couple more pieces.

125
00:07:34,650 --> 00:07:39,670
I make motion to a point tonne of graph as the principle of Spanish pork high school.

126
00:07:40,090 --> 00:07:40,310
I

127
00:07:43,730 --> 00:07:47,590
get so involved in all of these pieces, I forget that I'm actually so immediate.

128
00:07:49,710 --> 00:07:54,750
So we have emotions when you talk about it, and you press both sides, and it's for high

129
00:07:54,750 --> 00:07:55,050
pull.

130
00:07:55,290 --> 00:07:55,850
You have a second.

131
00:07:56,590 --> 00:07:59,210
Second by, it's all in the top.

132
00:07:59,470 --> 00:07:59,890
I'm sorry.

133
00:08:00,130 --> 00:08:01,130
I'll only say aye.

134
00:08:01,770 --> 00:08:04,510
And your pose is wonderful.

135
00:08:04,910 --> 00:08:05,290
Right.

136
00:08:05,610 --> 00:08:09,490
You want to make your way up to the podium already, so a little bit about you.

137
00:08:09,810 --> 00:08:12,010
Just see if we can make you a little bit nervous.

138
00:08:12,290 --> 00:08:13,410
I appreciate that.

139
00:08:14,910 --> 00:08:17,570
I appreciate that.

140
00:08:17,570 --> 00:08:23,290
her air within the Ebo School District to her new role. She spent 23 years as a math teacher

141
00:08:23,290 --> 00:08:28,770
at Facetime High School where she also served as a coach for two decades. Her transition

142
00:08:28,770 --> 00:08:34,970
into leadership began at Facetime High where she served as an institute for two years. She then

143
00:08:34,970 --> 00:08:40,370
moved in with an Australian as the assistant principal of Strayville High School for four years

144
00:08:40,370 --> 00:08:46,570
before leaving Mapleton Junior High as principal for the past three years. A colleague shared

145
00:08:47,570 --> 00:08:49,030
Helena is an amazing leader.

146
00:08:49,270 --> 00:08:51,170
She has demonstrated this throughout her career.

147
00:08:51,650 --> 00:08:53,750
She has been a math teacher and a coach

148
00:08:54,330 --> 00:08:57,230
who has changed students' lives through her ability

149
00:08:57,230 --> 00:08:59,890
to teach, coach, and her genuinely care

150
00:08:59,890 --> 00:09:01,110
and concern for them.

151
00:09:01,930 --> 00:09:04,410
Since she has carried these skills into her career

152
00:09:04,410 --> 00:09:07,630
as an administrator, she was an excellent assistant

153
00:09:07,630 --> 00:09:09,070
principal at Springville High School

154
00:09:09,070 --> 00:09:11,690
where she learned the ins and outs of being an administrator.

155
00:09:12,290 --> 00:09:14,270
She has led Maplefield Jr. to new heights

156
00:09:14,270 --> 00:09:17,210
in the past three years that she has been the principal

157
00:09:17,210 --> 00:09:22,410
there. I'm excited to see where she takes Spanish for high school in the future. I know she will

158
00:09:22,410 --> 00:09:28,430
continue to change the world one student at a time. In her downtime, Tana lives being outdoors,

159
00:09:28,910 --> 00:09:35,470
whether she is voting, golfing, traveling, or working around the house. Upon her appointment, Tana

160
00:09:35,470 --> 00:09:42,010
shared, it has been a privilege to serve the community of Mabelton. I'm grateful for the friendships I've

161
00:09:42,010 --> 00:09:45,510
with the faculty, staff, and student money.

162
00:09:45,970 --> 00:09:47,890
Thank you for making me part of your community.

163
00:09:49,010 --> 00:09:49,710
Thank you.

164
00:09:50,210 --> 00:09:53,830
I just wanted to add a special thanks to the board

165
00:09:53,830 --> 00:09:57,250
and Superintendent Nelson for the trust and honor

166
00:09:57,250 --> 00:10:01,430
that you placed with me to be able to go to a great school

167
00:10:01,430 --> 00:10:04,090
of Spanish for high school with you right down

168
00:10:04,090 --> 00:10:06,570
forward to it, really, I'm excited to be done.

169
00:10:07,250 --> 00:10:10,590
As I thought about my journey,

170
00:10:10,590 --> 00:10:15,730
I was fortunate. I've been fortunate enough to be able to be in the communities of

171
00:10:15,730 --> 00:10:22,410
Basin Springville, Mankleton. I live in Salem. So as my friends who were from Spanish

172
00:10:22,410 --> 00:10:27,690
work with me, congratulations on me. You finally made it to Spanish work. So the right

173
00:10:27,690 --> 00:10:36,750
side is right. And as I thought about my experiences, when I was at Basin as a teacher, I was pretty

174
00:10:36,750 --> 00:10:42,950
sure that there was no other faculty and no other school that could compare, and I have been pleasantly

175
00:10:42,950 --> 00:10:50,750
wrong in every experience. I just have met wonderful people, wonderful leaders. Every team that I've

176
00:10:50,750 --> 00:10:56,170
been able to serve with, with administration and faculty and staff in my communities that I've

177
00:10:56,170 --> 00:11:02,850
been able to get to know is just a pleasure, and as I thought about, this is because we have a wonderful

178
00:11:02,850 --> 00:11:05,710
will be loved, community, and a culture.

179
00:11:06,110 --> 00:11:09,010
And I think a lot of the credit goes to the board.

180
00:11:09,670 --> 00:11:12,670
You gave us a creative, a catering culture

181
00:11:13,250 --> 00:11:17,630
that you have indicated that you love the people

182
00:11:17,630 --> 00:11:18,930
in this district.

183
00:11:19,150 --> 00:11:23,050
And so I just want to thank you for the loudly

184
00:11:23,050 --> 00:11:25,530
such a place for me to have such a great career.

185
00:11:25,770 --> 00:11:27,450
And I look forward to the new challenges.

186
00:11:27,770 --> 00:11:30,550
And I can't wait to be done and see what we can do.

187
00:11:35,740 --> 00:11:36,300
Thank you.

188
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:41,140
Thank you, Jonathan.

189
00:11:41,380 --> 00:11:42,040
That was very nice.

190
00:11:42,100 --> 00:11:45,380
And I'm going to appreciate you accepting the position.

191
00:11:45,680 --> 00:11:46,100

192
00:11:46,680 --> 00:11:48,000
Rick, you have one more.

193
00:11:48,220 --> 00:11:49,100

We have a second for that.

198
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:16,300
I'm going to write down the street for me, or shall I say, do you ever need a break?

199
00:12:16,620 --> 00:12:17,400
I'm going to have to go.

00:12:19,420 --> 00:12:26,440

321
00:21:50,500 --> 00:21:57,340

00:21:57,340 --> 00:22:03,300

323
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:09,840

324
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:15,440
community. Beyond her professional achievements, Sarah is supported by her husband's bill,

325
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:21,460
their two children and a wonderful daughter-in-law. When she isn't leaving at school, she left to travel,

326
00:22:22,020 --> 00:22:26,080
lose herself in a good book, and cherish his quality time with good friends and family.

327
00:22:26,900 --> 00:22:32,220

In reflecting on her new appointment she stated,

329
00:22:38,540 --> 00:22:43,980

00:22:57,260 --> 00:23:00,960
I have talked myself into not singing.

335
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,060
I'm a way in Houston, medley for him.

336
00:23:05,300 --> 00:23:09,380
So he's just about playing the background as I address you.

337
00:23:09,380 --> 00:23:16,360
I have had the ASU honor of being at Maple Ridge for 11 years and when people say that

338
00:23:16,360 --> 00:23:20,920
allowed it's one of those things that you think really it's been 11 years because it feels

339
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:26,520
like we just started and what an awesome opportunity in community. We've been able to build

340
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:32,460
something amazing and I truly am glad to work every day and I hope everyone feels the same.

341
00:23:32,460 --> 00:23:39,060
I appreciate the board and the opportunity to be infantic and become a part of the

342
00:23:39,060 --> 00:23:44,440
orchard fields community and be able to continue to lead and strengthen the things that Penny

343
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:45,840
has been doing and her staff.

344
00:23:46,500 --> 00:23:51,680
And I am confident because I know that across people's school district we have committed educators

345
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,520
who are making a difference every day.

346
00:23:54,300 --> 00:24:00,840
As a kid my dad was an air force and so all of us would get the news that we were moving

347
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:07,020
to a new state, or a new city, or somewhere else, and we would be so sad because these people

348
00:24:07,020 --> 00:24:11,840
have become our very best friends, and it would become our very most favorite place that

349
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:12,220
we lived.

350
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:17,680
And then we would move to the new place, and then that new place would become our very best

351
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,140
friends, and the very best place we could be.

352
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,500
So I'm excited to have that same experience as we move to orchard hills.

353
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:30,580
Margaret Mead said, never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can

354
00:24:30,580 --> 00:24:35,740
change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that Edward has. I love that quote, second,

355
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,840
of course, to Whitney Houston, but I would like to add that it's not just those citizens,

356
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:46,480
it's the students, it's the parents and those teachers that truly changed the world. Thank

357
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,600
you, Needle School District. Thank you for all of you for my great colleagues and mentors

358
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:51,720
and thank you to the board.

359
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:52,300
I

360
00:25:02,030 --> 00:25:06,590
think this is weird. Oh, sorry. Oh, no, no. I just, I don't think they heard.

361
00:25:07,390 --> 00:25:14,250
All right. Number three. But Sarah, you're going to think this is weird. But when I was a teenager and that song came out,

362
00:25:14,890 --> 00:25:19,390
I would see tears in my eyes and to tell you the truth that

363
00:25:21,820 --> 00:25:28,580
my colleague was to kids, that I would be an advocate for kids the rest of my life in whatever place that would be.

364
00:25:29,260 --> 00:25:29,980
Thank you.

365
00:25:30,120 --> 00:25:30,260
Thank you.

366
00:25:30,260 --> 00:25:31,180
So, you're good to see you.

367
00:25:34,020 --> 00:25:36,140
I will do my best to agree with you.

368
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:38,760
Okay.

369
00:25:41,540 --> 00:25:45,780
We'll show you a political signer as the principal of Maple Ridge Elementary.

370
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:52,610
You know, we have a motion to apply it as a signer as the principal of Maple Ridge Elementary

371
00:25:52,610 --> 00:25:53,570
second on that.

372
00:25:54,250 --> 00:25:55,190
That might stop.

373
00:25:55,430 --> 00:25:57,030
We'll send an on-camera say aye.

374
00:25:57,410 --> 00:25:57,830
Aye.

375
00:25:57,830 --> 00:25:58,830
and any opposed?

376
00:25:59,910 --> 00:26:01,490
All right, and pass it unanimously.

377
00:26:01,790 --> 00:26:02,730
You've been called and invite you out

378
00:26:02,730 --> 00:26:03,770
to the program as well.

379
00:26:04,030 --> 00:26:04,750
I'll show you the reason.

380
00:26:05,570 --> 00:26:08,850
Okay, Nicole, for 14 years of it,

381
00:26:09,130 --> 00:26:11,650
sexual service within the Naval School District

382
00:26:11,650 --> 00:26:12,470
took her new role.

383
00:26:13,050 --> 00:26:15,050
She began for teaching career at Naval

384
00:26:15,050 --> 00:26:16,910
Tunnel Elementary in 5th grade,

385
00:26:17,510 --> 00:26:19,570
followed by several years at Cherry Creek

386
00:26:19,570 --> 00:26:21,230
and East Meta Zone Elementary.

387
00:26:21,790 --> 00:26:25,090
While at East Meta, she served as a facilitator

388
00:26:25,090 --> 00:26:26,710
before being appointed at the

389
00:26:26,710 --> 00:26:34,090
assistant principal of Maple Ridge Elementary this past year. A colleague stated Nicole truly loves

390
00:26:34,090 --> 00:26:39,630
her work as an educator and it shows in everything she does. She has a remarkable gift for

391
00:26:39,630 --> 00:26:45,650
being, for building meaningful relationships with every student she works with. Not only does she

392
00:26:45,650 --> 00:26:51,270
make learning fun and engaging but she also has an exceptional ability to recognize each child's

393
00:26:51,270 --> 00:26:59,450
and insurely feel value then important. Her positivity is contagious and her presence brightens every room she enters.

394
00:27:00,230 --> 00:27:03,510
Nicole represents the very best of what education should be.

395
00:27:04,710 --> 00:27:09,270
Nicole is the proud mother of twin daughters who are the absolute love of her life.

396
00:27:09,870 --> 00:27:17,150
Outside of school, she finds joy in the simple things. Live music, a good book, and any kind of board or card game.

397
00:27:17,150 --> 00:27:24,550
She left Sunday dinners with family, a crispy diet coke, and living a life she is truly excited about.

398
00:27:25,330 --> 00:27:30,150
Nicole is inspired by a quote from S.O. Tolson, to which states,

399
00:27:30,570 --> 00:27:34,450
your work is the very special thing that you add to this world.

400
00:27:35,030 --> 00:27:42,050
Your vision, your light, your love, what you share, what you create, how you make people feel.

401
00:27:42,050 --> 00:27:44,970
So that, my friends, is truly our work.

402
00:27:45,750 --> 00:27:46,630
Congratulations Nicole.

403
00:27:47,230 --> 00:27:47,630
Thank you.

404
00:27:47,770 --> 00:27:48,650
Thank you so much.

405
00:27:49,550 --> 00:27:52,150
And to the expect to have William Houston brought up,

406
00:27:52,270 --> 00:27:55,030
because there's nothing that's more important to me

407
00:27:55,030 --> 00:27:59,010
than my family, this community, and education,

408
00:27:59,370 --> 00:28:00,750
and then also Whitney.

409
00:28:01,870 --> 00:28:04,290
And I would figure that's the problem.

410
00:28:04,830 --> 00:28:06,910
And I would grab this, might you go for it.

411
00:28:08,590 --> 00:28:15,370
I am so grateful, it's so honored to have the opportunity to stay at Maple Ridge and

412
00:28:15,910 --> 00:28:22,130
follow in Sarah's giant footsteps for the wonderful things that she has put in place.

413
00:28:22,730 --> 00:28:31,010
A Maple Ridge is an absolute honor for me to continue to work with fabulous people, parents, and students better there.

414
00:28:32,450 --> 00:28:37,650
Thank you to the superintendent, superintendent, staff, and the board.

415
00:28:38,970 --> 00:28:47,010
I am excited to continue loving those children and getting to know the community and the students

416
00:28:47,010 --> 00:28:50,270
that make more and even more.

417
00:28:50,450 --> 00:28:51,370
So thank you so much.

418
00:28:51,430 --> 00:28:52,150
I appreciate it.

419
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:08,280
Before our board president closes the meeting, given the audiences and we're probably all

420
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:12,120
I'll try to keep back on your Bingo score card, what's going on?

421
00:29:12,460 --> 00:29:15,340
I'm just going to sit the size of it for you, all right.

422
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:21,080
So at this point in time, we've got the Student Services

423
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:22,920
Coordinator position that's open.

424
00:29:23,580 --> 00:29:26,320
We've got a Maple to the Junior High and Principal open.

425
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:28,840
It's fun to show it's elementary principal,

426
00:29:29,540 --> 00:29:33,260
Park U Elementary principal, Brock Bay Elementary principal,

427
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,120
Mount Nebo Middle, Assistant principal,

428
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,180
and Salem's junior high and assistant principal.

429
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,480
Those are the positions currently open.

430
00:29:42,420 --> 00:29:45,280
We intend to appoint those positions

431
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,240
or a March 11th board meeting,

432
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,140
but you can already do some math based on positions

433
00:29:51,140 --> 00:29:54,120
that are open that there will be some administrative movements

434
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:58,260
as well that will also be to occur in March 11th meeting.

435
00:29:58,260 --> 00:29:59,980
so as I

436
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:23,540
All of my e-vote administrator friends, all the time, congratulations, everyone's a candidate and a callout committee. So we've not done a couple of weeks' work out of this. Anyway, just, just, just to be really transparent on the positions their own, we've got to start working on this a team. And we'll be forwarding again in terms of our board, their great supporters for e-voteators.

437
00:30:26,540 --> 00:30:32,020
Thank you. Not to be redundant because everybody up here has set a lot of eloquent things.

438
00:30:32,020 --> 00:30:34,240
but we so, so appreciate you.

439
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:39,300
Many of us have had the opportunity to sit in some of the interviews where you've gotten

440
00:30:39,300 --> 00:30:44,960
hired for different positions as well as we have with you coming up, but we're always

441
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:51,080
just so, so impressed with your passion, your desire to serve the kids, the community.

442
00:30:51,780 --> 00:30:57,860
And also, your resilience and positivity as you move to different positions, we know,

443
00:30:57,860 --> 00:31:04,120
It can be uncomfortable and sometimes a little scary as we know, but that we are so grateful

444
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:10,480
for your faith in the superintendent staff as well as us as we make these important changes.

445
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:18,620
So, then having covered all the agenda of violence, I do like to have a motion to the agenda, but Chair of our board meeting.

446
00:31:20,260 --> 00:31:21,560
Seconded by Sean and Morning.

447
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,540
All in motion by Sean and Warner.

448
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,660
I'm sorry about the second and by Rick English.

449
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:29,940
All in there say aye.

450
00:31:31,060 --> 00:31:31,940
And in your pose.

451
00:31:33,300 --> 00:31:33,680
All right.

452
00:31:33,940 --> 00:31:35,100
The voting is in the audience.

453
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,800
And our board meeting is adjourned at 432 again.

454
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:39,780
Thank you.
