Make sure the blank is working.

2
00:28:50,399 --> 00:28:57,269
decision.

3
00:28:57,279 --> 00:29:03,029
Oh, shoot. Remember that?

4
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:04,399
But it's pretty.

5
00:29:04,399 --> 00:29:11,350
>> Yeah.

6
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:20,710

00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:45,110
number

10
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,269
where there

11
00:29:49,279 --> 00:29:50,559
» that's what we're wait until we're doing

12
00:29:50,559 --> 00:29:52,799

13
00:29:52,799 --> 00:29:53,360

00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,000
» So they're going to load up and then

18
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,520
download.

19
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:07,279
>> So they'll have to go every other chair

20
00:30:07,279 --> 00:30:08,640
because of

21
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:09,440
>> capacity.

22
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:10,640
>> Oh yeah.

23
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,720
>> So we're going to hopefully finalize all

24
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,000
details tomorrow.

25
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,520
>> That's very fun.

26
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,159
>> Are you all coming?

27
00:30:18,159 --> 00:30:19,360
>> Yeah.

28
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,120
How long do you think it will let this

29
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:22,960
extend the time? Because

30
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:24,799

All right, welcome everyone.

68
01:44:00,480 --> 01:44:03,040
We are gonna start out our meeting now

69
01:44:03,040 --> 01:44:08,550
with a construction update from JD.

70
01:44:08,560 --> 01:44:14,550
» First is the best but

71
01:44:14,560 --> 01:44:16,560
I have a 4 group that I take care of

72
01:44:16,560 --> 01:44:18,960
every other day and that's what I in

73
01:44:18,960 --> 01:44:21,679
good hands. So, we're doing um just some

74
01:44:21,679 --> 01:44:23,520
graphics real fast here. We'll start

75
01:44:23,520 --> 01:44:25,840
with Treasure Mountain just so just a

76
01:44:25,840 --> 01:44:27,520
reminder of everything that's going on

77
01:44:27,520 --> 01:44:30,239
over there. So, uh obviously the

78
01:44:30,239 --> 01:44:31,920
softball fields gone. You've seen the

79
01:44:31,920 --> 01:44:33,600
baseball netting going up. They'll be

80
01:44:33,600 --> 01:44:36,560
moving over to the softball field. Uh

81
01:44:36,560 --> 01:44:40,800
next, um the soccer fields are rough

82
01:44:40,800 --> 01:44:42,560
graded. We're about a foot away from

83
01:44:42,560 --> 01:44:44,719
subgrade, which is would be on the north

84
01:44:44,719 --> 01:44:47,280
side would be the pad. So, we're about a

85
01:44:47,280 --> 01:44:50,159
foot away from that. uh 18 inches on the

86
01:44:50,159 --> 01:44:52,639
south side. Um you can see the concrete

87
01:44:52,639 --> 01:44:54,400
wall going up between the two there,

88
01:44:54,400 --> 01:44:56,320
which is where the press box sets for

89
01:44:56,320 --> 01:44:58,000
both sides of those fields. And then the

90
01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:00,800
bleachers uh and there's a separation

91
01:45:00,800 --> 01:45:02,400
wall that you're seeing forming right

92
01:45:02,400 --> 01:45:04,159
now so that when we plane we don't see

93
01:45:04,159 --> 01:45:07,600
the other field. Uh and so that's that's

94
01:45:07,600 --> 01:45:10,639
ongoing right now. The support building

95
01:45:10,639 --> 01:45:12,560
the foundation's up and so they got to

96
01:45:12,560 --> 01:45:13,679
do the underground then they'll pour up

97
01:45:13,679 --> 01:45:15,040
the slab and then they'll start at the

98
01:45:15,040 --> 01:45:17,040
CMU. That's the only building that isn't

99
01:45:17,040 --> 01:45:18,639
done over there.

100
01:45:18,639 --> 01:45:21,679
um the press box and the team rooms and

101
01:45:21,679 --> 01:45:24,639
the dugouts. They we've got the roof on

102
01:45:24,639 --> 01:45:26,800
the the team rooms, the metal roof.

103
01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:28,080
There's metal roof that goes on the

104
01:45:28,080 --> 01:45:30,239
dugouts. Um they've done the floors in

105
01:45:30,239 --> 01:45:32,480
the team rooms uh and they're working

106
01:45:32,480 --> 01:45:33,840
their way kind of around those

107
01:45:33,840 --> 01:45:35,760
buildings. They get a brick veneer that

108
01:45:35,760 --> 01:45:38,080
you've seen going up that's that's kind

109
01:45:38,080 --> 01:45:39,679
of covers that CNU that's more

110
01:45:39,679 --> 01:45:43,360
decorative. Um the sophets uh and those

111
01:45:43,360 --> 01:45:44,719
roofs are going to happen at the same

112
01:45:44,719 --> 01:45:46,800
time. Uh that probably you'll start to

113
01:45:46,800 --> 01:45:48,480
see that next week. You're starting to

114
01:45:48,480 --> 01:45:50,719
see where the batting cages are. We

115
01:45:50,719 --> 01:45:52,239
filled in the holes. The sewer's been

116
01:45:52,239 --> 01:45:54,080
repaired. All that's been fixed and so

117
01:45:54,080 --> 01:45:57,199
they're starting to grade that now. Um

118
01:45:57,199 --> 01:45:58,480
uh they're going pretty hot and heavy on

119
01:45:58,480 --> 01:46:01,440
that today. This south parking lot on

120
01:46:01,440 --> 01:46:05,119
that south soccer field is in subgrade

121
01:46:05,119 --> 01:46:06,719
just waiting to turn the corner, but

122
01:46:06,719 --> 01:46:09,679
that is the existing parking lot

123
01:46:09,679 --> 01:46:12,560
and that'll wait until um school's out.

124
01:46:12,560 --> 01:46:16,560
So, uh, all utilities except for the gas

125
01:46:16,560 --> 01:46:19,760
and, um, the electric are done. They are

126
01:46:19,760 --> 01:46:22,320
getting close on the electric. Um, so

127
01:46:22,320 --> 01:46:24,880
that's all the site there. The you'll

128
01:46:24,880 --> 01:46:26,960
start to see the poles go up for the

129
01:46:26,960 --> 01:46:29,280
soccer fields. And if we can get any

130
01:46:29,280 --> 01:46:30,560
squeeze in the tennis courts, I don't

131
01:46:30,560 --> 01:46:32,400
think we can, but we'll get all the

132
01:46:32,400 --> 01:46:34,000
lighting up for the soccer fields.

133
01:46:34,000 --> 01:46:35,600
They've staged, and mobilized, and ready

134
01:46:35,600 --> 01:46:40,000
to go there. Um, the, uh, tennis courts

135
01:46:40,000 --> 01:46:42,800
are tenatively scheduled. um to start

136
01:46:42,800 --> 01:46:44,719
mid July. That's when they'll come in

137
01:46:44,719 --> 01:46:46,560
and do the the concrete and the post

138
01:46:46,560 --> 01:46:48,960
tension on those. Um and the turf for

139
01:46:48,960 --> 01:46:52,080
the soccer field is scheduled July 6.

140
01:46:52,080 --> 01:46:54,080
The tanks that contain the sludge from

141
01:46:54,080 --> 01:46:56,080
the deatering operation should be

142
01:46:56,080 --> 01:46:58,960
offsite by next week. Um we started to

143
01:46:58,960 --> 01:47:02,159
haul that sludge off. Um we do have a

144
01:47:02,159 --> 01:47:03,679
couple tanks. We have one tank and a

145
01:47:03,679 --> 01:47:05,440
half of clean water that has to be

146
01:47:05,440 --> 01:47:07,679
discharged, but because we moved into

147
01:47:07,679 --> 01:47:09,199
May, we had to run some more tests on

148
01:47:09,199 --> 01:47:11,600
that. We got one back today. should have

149
01:47:11,600 --> 01:47:13,600
the next test back next week. And so

150
01:47:13,600 --> 01:47:15,520
then we'll discharge that. But those

151
01:47:15,520 --> 01:47:18,239
tanks, what's Tuesday? It'll probably be

152
01:47:18,239 --> 01:47:19,840
into Monday or Tuesday, but then they'll

153
01:47:19,840 --> 01:47:21,440
just roll them off and be out of there.

154
01:47:21,440 --> 01:47:23,040
We got about a week's worth of grading

155
01:47:23,040 --> 01:47:24,719
on the softball field to clean it up.

156
01:47:24,719 --> 01:47:26,800
The turf's there, then they'll come and

157
01:47:26,800 --> 01:47:29,840
turf that. So hopefully end of next

158
01:47:29,840 --> 01:47:31,280
week, probably the first of next, you'll

159
01:47:31,280 --> 01:47:33,199
start to see the turf go down on the

160
01:47:33,199 --> 01:47:36,480
baseball field. Um, so then, like I

161
01:47:36,480 --> 01:47:38,239
said, all the utilities are in there.

162
01:47:38,239 --> 01:47:40,000
Um, you're starting to see some sight

163
01:47:40,000 --> 01:47:42,480
grading going on. There are multiple

164
01:47:42,480 --> 01:47:45,280
piles of material out there. Some is is

165
01:47:45,280 --> 01:47:48,239
uh top soil, some is clean soil. Most of

166
01:47:48,239 --> 01:47:50,719
the majority of the contaminated soil is

167
01:47:50,719 --> 01:47:53,199
on that north side where the tennis

168
01:47:53,199 --> 01:47:56,480
courts are. So, um I don't know if you

169
01:47:56,480 --> 01:47:58,000
guys want have any questions about that

170
01:47:58,000 --> 01:48:00,239
or you want to move on to Doure, but um

171
01:48:00,239 --> 01:48:02,080
that's it for treasure. So,

172
01:48:02,080 --> 01:48:03,199
>> just one more question.

173
01:48:03,199 --> 01:48:06,400
>> Sure. Do we know yet when we're going to

174
01:48:06,400 --> 01:48:09,520
be actively using any of these bits?

175
01:48:09,520 --> 01:48:13,280
>> So, um I would say by the end of July,

176
01:48:13,280 --> 01:48:15,280
we could probably use the soccer,

177
01:48:15,280 --> 01:48:17,119
baseball, and the softball fields,

178
01:48:17,119 --> 01:48:18,880
right? The biggest thing that would be

179
01:48:18,880 --> 01:48:20,639
that would take to be finished is that

180
01:48:20,639 --> 01:48:22,960
piece of concrete in between the soccer

181
01:48:22,960 --> 01:48:24,560
and the and the baseball and softball

182
01:48:24,560 --> 01:48:26,400
fields. That's a big plaza, right? And

183
01:48:26,400 --> 01:48:28,639
it has some it has some architectural

184
01:48:28,639 --> 01:48:31,280
features that are like little uh I don't

185
01:48:31,280 --> 01:48:33,760
even know how to describe it. little uh

186
01:48:33,760 --> 01:48:37,199
architectural features I would imagine

187
01:48:37,199 --> 01:48:39,679
but but those may not be done but the

188
01:48:39,679 --> 01:48:41,119
big thing would be having that concrete

189
01:48:41,119 --> 01:48:42,480
done right so there was it was

190
01:48:42,480 --> 01:48:45,360
seamlessly in between each of those um I

191
01:48:45,360 --> 01:48:47,840
don't know about the restroom facilities

192
01:48:47,840 --> 01:48:49,600
the fields would be playable but I don't

193
01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:50,800
know that all the bathrooms would be

194
01:48:50,800 --> 01:48:54,719
done so they are you know they're in the middle of the mechanical

195
01:48:54,719 --> 01:48:56,080
in all those buildings so all the

196
01:48:56,080 --> 01:48:57,920
bathrooms are getting plumbed in all the

197
01:48:57,920 --> 01:49:00,000
HBAC's going in all that stuff's going

198
01:49:00,000 --> 01:49:02,880
in but by the end of July I would say be

199
01:49:02,880 --> 01:49:04,159
probably pretty close in those

200
01:49:04,159 --> 01:49:04,880
buildings.

201
01:49:04,880 --> 01:49:07,199
>> How does that phases?

202
01:49:07,199 --> 01:49:09,679
>> So yeah, I mean we'll we'll I think

203
01:49:09,679 --> 01:49:12,239
we'll be ready for fall. Um keep in mind

204
01:49:12,239 --> 01:49:13,600
the parking lot's going to be torn off

205
01:49:13,600 --> 01:49:16,000
as well. We decided we'd like to we'd

206
01:49:16,000 --> 01:49:17,440
like to not do the parking lot till

207
01:49:17,440 --> 01:49:19,840
after school is out. We lose all those

208
01:49:19,840 --> 01:49:22,400
spots where kids are parking there. Um

209
01:49:22,400 --> 01:49:24,159
but as far as getting on there for

210
01:49:24,159 --> 01:49:25,679
practice and whatnot, I'm guess some

211
01:49:25,679 --> 01:49:27,280
teams will be able to get on there for

212
01:49:27,280 --> 01:49:30,080
fall. Our football team's purposely

213
01:49:30,080 --> 01:49:34,800
scheduled later home games. So, um, but

214
01:49:34,800 --> 01:49:37,040
yeah. Yeah, I'm not worried about here

215
01:49:37,040 --> 01:49:39,119
at all. I think football team's in great

216
01:49:39,119 --> 01:49:41,520
shape. So, but the fields, the big thing

217
01:49:41,520 --> 01:49:43,600
will be that parking lot that that

218
01:49:43,600 --> 01:49:44,960
parking lot is going to be pushed into

219
01:49:44,960 --> 01:49:46,880
September just because we've waited till

220
01:49:46,880 --> 01:49:48,800
school is out. There's two big utility

221
01:49:48,800 --> 01:49:50,639
crossings that come across there and

222
01:49:50,639 --> 01:49:51,760
they're going to take a little bit of

223
01:49:51,760 --> 01:49:53,040
time, but that whole thing gets

224
01:49:53,040 --> 01:49:55,040
replaced, right? It's all new asphalt,

225
01:49:55,040 --> 01:49:57,199
all new subbase and everything else. And

226
01:49:57,199 --> 01:49:58,800
so it's going to take a little time, but

227
01:49:58,800 --> 01:50:00,480
it's right now the schedule showing not

228
01:50:00,480 --> 01:50:02,960
pushed into September. So, and along

229
01:50:02,960 --> 01:50:04,560
with the tennis courts, right, tennis

230
01:50:04,560 --> 01:50:07,040
courts will be, like I said, uh they are

231
01:50:07,040 --> 01:50:09,199
scheduled for mid July. Once that's

232
01:50:09,199 --> 01:50:11,520
poured, they have to set for about 30

233
01:50:11,520 --> 01:50:13,199
days, right, before they can surface

234
01:50:13,199 --> 01:50:15,040
them. So, as soon as that 30 days is up,

235
01:50:15,040 --> 01:50:16,960
they can surface them and stripe them.

236
01:50:16,960 --> 01:50:19,600
But there's also the sight fencing, and

237
01:50:19,600 --> 01:50:21,520
it does start that pretty soon here. But

238
01:50:21,520 --> 01:50:22,880
that whole thing gets re, you know,

239
01:50:22,880 --> 01:50:24,639
refenced and so you'll start to see the

240
01:50:24,639 --> 01:50:27,280
sight fencing going too. So, um, he's

241
01:50:27,280 --> 01:50:30,000
actually at Doure this week starting the

242
01:50:30,000 --> 01:50:32,639
fence at Doure. So, um, a lot of these

243
01:50:32,639 --> 01:50:36,080
subcontractors are working both of these

244
01:50:36,080 --> 01:50:37,760
fields, right? They're working treasure

245
01:50:37,760 --> 01:50:39,920
and doer at the same time. So, they kind

246
01:50:39,920 --> 01:50:40,960
of bounce back and forth,

247
01:50:40,960 --> 01:50:42,639
>> right? It's like a similar, right?

248
01:50:42,639 --> 01:50:45,119
>> Yeah. So, um, but

249
01:50:45,119 --> 01:50:47,840
>> looking forward to grand opening.

250
01:50:47,840 --> 01:50:48,159
>> Yeah,

251
01:50:48,159 --> 01:50:50,080
>> we are too.

252
01:50:50,080 --> 01:50:54,239
Nobody could. Maybe more than me, but

253
01:50:54,239 --> 01:50:56,159
he could. Maybe. I don't think so

254
01:50:56,159 --> 01:50:58,080
though. But and then you'll start to see

255
01:50:58,080 --> 01:50:59,920
the that north pile too start to

256
01:50:59,920 --> 01:51:02,239
disappear as that is incorporated back

257
01:51:02,239 --> 01:51:04,000
into the landscaping and everything that

258
01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:06,400
goes around these ball pits. So along

259
01:51:06,400 --> 01:51:09,840
the flange there along the on alongs and

260
01:51:09,840 --> 01:51:11,280
everything. So they're they've actually

261
01:51:11,280 --> 01:51:13,040
started some of that. So they're doing

262
01:51:13,040 --> 01:51:15,280
it right now actually as we speak. So,

263
01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:17,920
you'll start to see that they are

264
01:51:17,920 --> 01:51:20,239
actively working that pile, but I've got

265
01:51:20,239 --> 01:51:21,600
assurances from them that they're going

266
01:51:21,600 --> 01:51:23,760
to be double covering that now from here

267
01:51:23,760 --> 01:51:26,480
on out. Uh, you know, it's it's hard

268
01:51:26,480 --> 01:51:28,239
when you see that pile sometimes that

269
01:51:28,239 --> 01:51:30,159
with the wind and everything. It's it's

270
01:51:30,159 --> 01:51:32,400
a monumental task to keep that thing

271
01:51:32,400 --> 01:51:34,719
covered all the time, right? So, um, but

272
01:51:34,719 --> 01:51:36,560
I think that with a double cover that'll

273
01:51:36,560 --> 01:51:38,960
help. So,

274
01:51:38,960 --> 01:51:40,560
that's it for treasure unless you guys

275
01:51:40,560 --> 01:51:42,480
have any more there. So, we'll move on

276
01:51:42,480 --> 01:51:44,239
to Doure.

277
01:51:44,239 --> 01:51:47,280
So Goer's way is right on schedule. I

278
01:51:47,280 --> 01:51:49,520
mean, it's just tracking so nicely. The

279
01:51:49,520 --> 01:51:51,119
track demolition will be done the end of

280
01:51:51,119 --> 01:51:53,679
this week. So they will be completely

281
01:51:53,679 --> 01:51:55,040
out of there. They're going to start the

282
01:51:55,040 --> 01:51:57,679
regrading actually. Uh and they are

283
01:51:57,679 --> 01:52:00,480
scheduled to be in here. Let's see my

284
01:52:00,480 --> 01:52:04,229
notes here.

285
01:52:04,239 --> 01:52:06,239
June 15th.

286
01:52:06,239 --> 01:52:08,560
So they will start repouring that track.

287
01:52:08,560 --> 01:52:10,719
Um they've got about a month schedule

288
01:52:10,719 --> 01:52:14,400
for pouring. Um, so July 10th is kind of

289
01:52:14,400 --> 01:52:16,159
the finish date there. And then again,

290
01:52:16,159 --> 01:52:17,840
that'll set for a little while while it

291
01:52:17,840 --> 01:52:19,920
cures up. It'll be curing at different

292
01:52:19,920 --> 01:52:23,280
stages a little bit. But the um Westside

293
01:52:23,280 --> 01:52:27,040
Home bleachers are just kicking really.

294
01:52:27,040 --> 01:52:28,800
That's a whole concrete structure,

295
01:52:28,800 --> 01:52:30,480
right, with the concessions on the back

296
01:52:30,480 --> 01:52:34,080
side of it at ground level. Uh, and so

297
01:52:34,080 --> 01:52:36,159
they are about 70% completed the

298
01:52:36,159 --> 01:52:37,520
concrete there. They've already started

299
01:52:37,520 --> 01:52:39,520
the steel on the south end of that

300
01:52:39,520 --> 01:52:41,840
structure and the deck for the second

301
01:52:41,840 --> 01:52:44,000
level. And so and then they're just

302
01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:45,760
going to work their way across it north.

303
01:52:45,760 --> 01:52:51,360
Um and uh so and then the rest of the seating and everything is pre-cast

304
01:52:51,360 --> 01:52:53,520
and it is scheduled to be here the 8th

305
01:52:53,520 --> 01:52:56,560
right after. So you'll start to see them

306
01:52:56,560 --> 01:52:58,480
swinging that in there with the crane.

307
01:52:58,480 --> 01:53:00,639
They'll get all that seating done. The

308
01:53:00,639 --> 01:53:02,719
concessions have the slabs to be poured.

309
01:53:02,719 --> 01:53:05,119
The foundations are done. Um, but

310
01:53:05,119 --> 01:53:06,960
they're behind that structure. So, if

311
01:53:06,960 --> 01:53:08,560
you you're on the back side of the

312
01:53:08,560 --> 01:53:12,800
church, there you can see see that those little buildings coming up there.

313
01:53:12,800 --> 01:53:14,400
Um,

314
01:53:14,400 --> 01:53:16,400
there is that 8ft sidewalk that goes all

315
01:53:16,400 --> 01:53:18,239
the way around the track. The south

316
01:53:18,239 --> 01:53:21,119
side, I would say, is about 75% done,

317
01:53:21,119 --> 01:53:22,880
which has a retaining wall against the

318
01:53:22,880 --> 01:53:25,360
apartments there. And then there's a

319
01:53:25,360 --> 01:53:26,960
little railing going along the track

320
01:53:26,960 --> 01:53:28,320
there. This is to keep people off the

321
01:53:28,320 --> 01:53:31,119
track, right? so your your uh foot

322
01:53:31,119 --> 01:53:32,719
traffic can work its way all the way

323
01:53:32,719 --> 01:53:34,639
around the track both north and south.

324
01:53:34,639 --> 01:53:36,639
They've started the southside which is

325
01:53:36,639 --> 01:53:39,520
an ADA ramp partially and then it

326
01:53:39,520 --> 01:53:41,119
flattens back out as it gets back

327
01:53:41,119 --> 01:53:42,960
towards the west there. But they've

328
01:53:42,960 --> 01:53:44,400
started the footing for that and they

329
01:53:44,400 --> 01:53:46,800
started part partial retaining wall of

330
01:53:46,800 --> 01:53:49,280
that. Uh that's kind of incorporated in

331
01:53:49,280 --> 01:53:51,599
that 70%. Once they finish this south

332
01:53:51,599 --> 01:53:54,320
side, it ties right into that structure

333
01:53:54,320 --> 01:53:57,440
they'll move over to to the north side.

334
01:53:57,440 --> 01:54:00,000
Um most of the site utilities are done

335
01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:03,040
there. I would say the sewer and um the

336
01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:04,719
electrical is going hot and heavy right

337
01:54:04,719 --> 01:54:06,639
now. Uh Rocky Mountain Power is coming

338
01:54:06,639 --> 01:54:08,400
in to set a transformer here pretty

339
01:54:08,400 --> 01:54:11,840
soon. Um on that west on the east side,

340
01:54:11,840 --> 01:54:14,880
sorry. Uh all those buildings are up

341
01:54:14,880 --> 01:54:16,080
obviously. You can see the sighting

342
01:54:16,080 --> 01:54:21,360
going up on those. Um that's on both buildings. Um the roofs are done.

343
01:54:21,360 --> 01:54:23,119
They're inside doing all the mechanical

344
01:54:23,119 --> 01:54:26,560
and electrical and plumbing. Um uh they

345
01:54:26,560 --> 01:54:28,639
are getting ready to grade out the

346
01:54:28,639 --> 01:54:30,800
visitors bleacher pad. The bleachers are

347
01:54:30,800 --> 01:54:33,040
coming in the end of June. That's for

348
01:54:33,040 --> 01:54:35,520
both sites. They're going to again hop

349
01:54:35,520 --> 01:54:37,360
back and forth as to what's available,

350
01:54:37,360 --> 01:54:38,960
but we're going to pour that pad pretty

351
01:54:38,960 --> 01:54:41,760
soon for the for the visitor site

352
01:54:41,760 --> 01:54:44,239
bleachers there. Um and the fencing guy,

353
01:54:44,239 --> 01:54:46,960
like I said, has started. Uh the canopy

354
01:54:46,960 --> 01:54:48,800
is the footings are already in for the

355
01:54:48,800 --> 01:54:50,159
canopy. So, it's just a matter of

356
01:54:50,159 --> 01:54:53,440
finalizing that stuff. But, uh Doure's

357
01:54:53,440 --> 01:54:55,840
right on track. It's right on schedule.

358
01:54:55,840 --> 01:54:57,599
There ever was and we just been had good

359
01:54:57,599 --> 01:55:00,639
weather, good working conditions. Uh the

360
01:55:00,639 --> 01:55:02,719
last real big utility probably to go in

361
01:55:02,719 --> 01:55:05,199
there is the water which is a cut into

362
01:55:05,199 --> 01:55:06,480
Lucky John. I'm just going to tell you

363
01:55:06,480 --> 01:55:08,960
right now so you're aware of that. Uh

364
01:55:08,960 --> 01:55:10,719
we're trying to get that permitted now.

365
01:55:10,719 --> 01:55:12,880
We were able to keep originally the

366
01:55:12,880 --> 01:55:14,719
original design showed the sewer and the

367
01:55:14,719 --> 01:55:17,360
gas and the water being tied into Lucky

368
01:55:17,360 --> 01:55:20,560
John. We were able to not do the gas in

369
01:55:20,560 --> 01:55:22,719
the sewer through some design changes,

370
01:55:22,719 --> 01:55:24,480
but we cannot change the water over

371
01:55:24,480 --> 01:55:26,560
there. There was only a 3/4 inch line

372
01:55:26,560 --> 01:55:28,320
that ran that old concessions building.

373
01:55:28,320 --> 01:55:30,639
And this building is, you know, three or

374
01:55:30,639 --> 01:55:32,159
four, five times the size of that with

375
01:55:32,159 --> 01:55:34,320
bathrooms and everything else. So, uh,

376
01:55:34,320 --> 01:55:35,920
they're in the process of that, but

377
01:55:35,920 --> 01:55:38,800
there will be some work back on Lucky

378
01:55:38,800 --> 01:55:39,920
Jump. So,

379
01:55:39,920 --> 01:55:40,960
>> when was that?

380
01:55:40,960 --> 01:55:42,800
>> Uh, they have not issued the permit yet.

381
01:55:42,800 --> 01:55:44,239
So, they're in the permitting process

382
01:55:44,239 --> 01:55:45,920
right now. They they think they could

383
01:55:45,920 --> 01:55:47,840
get it done with a day closure, but I

384
01:55:47,840 --> 01:55:49,360
would highly doubt that the city would

385
01:55:49,360 --> 01:55:51,040
give them a day closure on the permit.

386
01:55:51,040 --> 01:55:52,639
They may I don't know. We'll just have

387
01:55:52,639 --> 01:55:53,840
to see.

388
01:55:53,840 --> 01:55:56,800
>> So, how long will it take just a day for

389
01:55:56,800 --> 01:55:57,599
them to do it?

390
01:55:57,599 --> 01:55:58,880
>> If they could close the whole road

391
01:55:58,880 --> 01:56:00,320
again, but if they have to do it in

392
01:56:00,320 --> 01:56:02,320
sections, right, you have to have oneway

393
01:56:02,320 --> 01:56:05,280
traffic both directions. And that's

394
01:56:05,280 --> 01:56:07,119
>> And would you have to turn the water off

395
01:56:07,119 --> 01:56:08,960
at the neighbors?

396
01:56:08,960 --> 01:56:10,480
>> No. Turn off at the neighbors. There's

397
01:56:10,480 --> 01:56:15,440
already an existing connection there. We might have it shut off for a minute

398
01:56:15,440 --> 01:56:16,960
or two while we make the new connection,

399
01:56:16,960 --> 01:56:19,040
but that's probably it. So,

400
01:56:19,040 --> 01:56:20,800
>> and then what's the time frame of this

401
01:56:20,800 --> 01:56:21,679
being finished?

402
01:56:21,679 --> 01:56:25,440
>> So, they will be finished. Uh they're shown about August, first part

403
01:56:25,440 --> 01:56:27,119
of August. So, there'll be some cleanup

404
01:56:27,119 --> 01:56:28,560
stuff that they'll have to do, right?

405
01:56:28,560 --> 01:56:31,040
The track striping may not be done, but

406
01:56:31,040 --> 01:56:33,360
the track surface would be done. Uh it

407
01:56:33,360 --> 01:56:35,360
just all depends on a couple of things

408
01:56:35,360 --> 01:56:36,880
falling into place, but the buildings

409
01:56:36,880 --> 01:56:38,560
would be done for sure. No question

410
01:56:38,560 --> 01:56:40,800
about it. In fact, they're scheduled to

411
01:56:40,800 --> 01:56:45,920
tie the the uh football field back in.

412
01:56:45,920 --> 01:56:49,360
I have written down here July 20th. So,

413
01:56:49,360 --> 01:56:51,360
they'll they'll be back in to tie that

414
01:56:51,360 --> 01:56:53,520
back into the track. So, most of that

415
01:56:53,520 --> 01:56:56,800
will be be usable other than there may

416
01:56:56,800 --> 01:56:58,560
not be the lines painted, a few things

417
01:56:58,560 --> 01:57:00,080
like that, but all the buildings should

418
01:57:00,080 --> 01:57:03,280
be done. So, uh they are really moving

419
01:57:03,280 --> 01:57:06,560
pretty quickly over there.

420
01:57:06,560 --> 01:57:08,800
>> Uh so, it's rolled back, right? which is

421
01:57:08,800 --> 01:57:10,400
it's a big carpet if you've ever looked

422
01:57:10,400 --> 01:57:13,119
at it and then they've taken all of the

423
01:57:13,119 --> 01:57:15,040
infill which is the rubber and the sand

424
01:57:15,040 --> 01:57:16,880
and they put they suction all that up

425
01:57:16,880 --> 01:57:18,400
and then set that on top of it. It's

426
01:57:18,400 --> 01:57:20,480
kind of weighing it down. So they'll

427
01:57:20,480 --> 01:57:23,760
just roll it back reo the infill stitch

428
01:57:23,760 --> 01:57:25,760
it back to the concrete. It's anchored

429
01:57:25,760 --> 01:57:27,679
to that concrete track where it's going

430
01:57:27,679 --> 01:57:29,199
to be. That's how they anchor these

431
01:57:29,199 --> 01:57:31,599
things around this whole the baseball

432
01:57:31,599 --> 01:57:33,280
field, softball field, soccer fields.

433
01:57:33,280 --> 01:57:35,760
You'll see this concrete curb and that's

434
01:57:35,760 --> 01:57:38,719
how that turf is anchored. So,

435
01:57:38,719 --> 01:57:40,719
>> so it'll be ready for for classes.

436
01:57:40,719 --> 01:57:44,080
>> Oh, yes. Yes. Yeah, for sure. I I can't

437
01:57:44,080 --> 01:57:45,840
see. Well, there I think they want to

438
01:57:45,840 --> 01:57:47,199
practice there. Is that right, Jamie?

439
01:57:47,199 --> 01:57:49,360
And so, I think that we'll they'll be

440
01:57:49,360 --> 01:57:52,080
able to practice there as well. And and

441
01:57:52,080 --> 01:57:53,760
uh they may have to walk across plywood

442
01:57:53,760 --> 01:57:55,440
to get onto the field while they're

443
01:57:55,440 --> 01:57:56,880
doing the track, but they should be able

444
01:57:56,880 --> 01:57:58,639
to practice there all summer. So, or

445
01:57:58,639 --> 01:58:01,119
when I think we coordinate the dates

446
01:58:01,119 --> 01:58:03,040
obviously, but yeah, they should be

447
01:58:03,040 --> 01:58:04,400
ready to go. So,

448
01:58:04,400 --> 01:58:07,040
>> dates. Absolutely.

449
01:58:07,040 --> 01:58:10,719
And I'm just curious, sorry about the 88

450
01:58:10,719 --> 01:58:11,199
ramp

451
01:58:11,199 --> 01:58:12,320
>> on the north side.

452
01:58:12,320 --> 01:58:15,119
>> Yeah. So that comes up to the

453
01:58:15,119 --> 01:58:17,199
>> So as you as you work your way to the

454
01:58:17,199 --> 01:58:19,119
west, so let's say you're walking to the

455
01:58:19,119 --> 01:58:22,080
north down that you know to you kind of

456
01:58:22,080 --> 01:58:23,920
see the sidewalk. You see the yellow

457
01:58:23,920 --> 01:58:25,840
dots? That's those are those are light

458
01:58:25,840 --> 01:58:27,440
poles, right? The sidewalk's right next

459
01:58:27,440 --> 01:58:29,199
to that. So as you're walking along that

460
01:58:29,199 --> 01:58:30,960
sidewalk, there you go. As you're coming

461
01:58:30,960 --> 01:58:34,639
around, it starts to ramp up right

462
01:58:34,639 --> 01:58:35,440
about there.

463
01:58:35,440 --> 01:58:36,800
>> Okay. somewhere right there. It starts

464
01:58:36,800 --> 01:58:39,520
to gradually ramp up to the so you can

465
01:58:39,520 --> 01:58:42,000
get to the level of the of those

466
01:58:42,000 --> 01:58:43,760
bleachers on that other side. So it

467
01:58:43,760 --> 01:58:45,360
walks right into it. So

468
01:58:45,360 --> 01:58:47,119
>> Okay. So it's actually raised on the

469
01:58:47,119 --> 01:58:49,040
west side. Yes.

470
01:58:49,040 --> 01:58:49,760
>> Yes.

471
01:58:49,760 --> 01:58:51,840
>> Yeah. If you go over behind the church

472
01:58:51,840 --> 01:58:52,960
parking lot, drive around there, you'll

473
01:58:52,960 --> 01:58:54,320
see how much we've raised it up. There's

474
01:58:54,320 --> 01:58:57,119
a a new block wall around there and and

475
01:58:57,119 --> 01:58:59,119
everything else. And so and you'll see

476
01:58:59,119 --> 01:59:01,040
those concession sides are what they

477
01:59:01,040 --> 01:59:02,719
call, you know, at that garden level

478
01:59:02,719 --> 01:59:06,870
there. So

479
01:59:06,880 --> 01:59:08,000
» progress.

480
01:59:08,000 --> 01:59:10,000
>> Yes. Yeah. And then the other side, just

481
01:59:10,000 --> 01:59:11,280
so you know, the south side's flat

482
01:59:11,280 --> 01:59:14,320
enough uh and then it's a natural ramp

483
01:59:14,320 --> 01:59:15,840
up. I think it meets the same

484
01:59:15,840 --> 01:59:17,679
requirements. So either way you go I

485
01:59:17,679 --> 01:59:25,990
think to make that

486
01:59:26,000 --> 01:59:38,310
» question

487
01:59:38,320 --> 01:59:48,790
he's joining us.

488
01:59:48,800 --> 01:59:50,800
My name is Jacqueline Nap. I'm your

489
01:59:50,800 --> 01:59:53,040
special education director and I have a

490
01:59:53,040 --> 01:59:55,520
short presentation for you on our new

491
01:59:55,520 --> 01:59:57,440
social skills adoption for the

492
01:59:57,440 --> 02:00:01,360
secondary. Um, this is the last piece in

493
02:00:01,360 --> 02:00:04,320
our improvement cycle.

494
02:00:04,320 --> 02:00:07,280
Since 2018, our graduation rates have

495
02:00:07,280 --> 02:00:10,719
improved from 72% to 92%.

496
02:00:10,719 --> 02:00:12,480
In terms of growth, we're no longer

497
02:00:12,480 --> 02:00:15,040
identified in any targeted support

498
02:00:15,040 --> 02:00:17,360
improvement category and our students

499
02:00:17,360 --> 02:00:19,679
are now making academic growth that is

500
02:00:19,679 --> 02:00:21,599
outperforming their general education

501
02:00:21,599 --> 02:00:24,880
peers across the state. For the last

502
02:00:24,880 --> 02:00:27,920
three years in a row, we have won awards

503
02:00:27,920 --> 02:00:30,800
for post high outcomes. So, we're top in

504
02:00:30,800 --> 02:00:32,639
our category for students enrolled in

505
02:00:32,639 --> 02:00:34,719
higher education, students who are

506
02:00:34,719 --> 02:00:37,119
competitively employed or otherwise

507
02:00:37,119 --> 02:00:39,679
employed. So, special education has been

508
02:00:39,679 --> 02:00:42,400
working hard um on our academic outcomes

509
02:00:42,400 --> 02:00:45,040
and our post high school outcomes.

510
02:00:45,040 --> 02:00:47,119
And

511
02:00:47,119 --> 02:00:49,360
now it's time for the next piece in our

512
02:00:49,360 --> 02:00:51,520
strategic plan for our social skills

513
02:00:51,520 --> 02:00:53,840
evolution.

514
02:00:53,840 --> 02:00:55,599
Several years ago, we adopted an

515
02:00:55,599 --> 02:00:57,840
elementary social skills set of

516
02:00:57,840 --> 02:00:59,440
programming and today we're ready for

517
02:00:59,440 --> 02:01:02,719
the evolution in our secondary content.

518
02:01:02,719 --> 02:01:05,040
Students with disabilities face complex

519
02:01:05,040 --> 02:01:07,599
emotional shifts and things are new. We

520
02:01:07,599 --> 02:01:09,840
have digital safety, complex peer

521
02:01:09,840 --> 02:01:11,760
relationships, and our students are

522
02:01:11,760 --> 02:01:13,840
navigating a transition from high school

523
02:01:13,840 --> 02:01:16,719
to college. They're managing all types

524
02:01:16,719 --> 02:01:20,239
of um regular student stress in addition

525
02:01:20,239 --> 02:01:22,239
to stress that comes from being

526
02:01:22,239 --> 02:01:24,639
disabled, which can include academic

527
02:01:24,639 --> 02:01:27,280
stress or emotional health. and they're

528
02:01:27,280 --> 02:01:29,599
working on mastering their workplace

529
02:01:29,599 --> 02:01:32,000
communication.

530
02:01:32,000 --> 02:01:34,400
Because of these ch complex challenges,

531
02:01:34,400 --> 02:01:37,040
we focused on finding programs that had

532
02:01:37,040 --> 02:01:39,520
research base, longitudinal research,

533
02:01:39,520 --> 02:01:42,480
and a really good clear track record of

534
02:01:42,480 --> 02:01:45,920
student improvement um and outcomes that

535
02:01:45,920 --> 02:01:48,560
focused on community transition and

536
02:01:48,560 --> 02:01:54,239
doing well in school. Our community, our committee included speech language

537
02:01:54,239 --> 02:01:56,080
pathologists, special education

538
02:01:56,080 --> 02:01:58,800
teachers, social workers, parents, and

539
02:01:58,800 --> 02:02:02,870
secondary administrators.

540
02:02:02,880 --> 02:02:05,040
Uh, as you can imagine, we have a

541
02:02:05,040 --> 02:02:07,119
diverse set of needs. And so, we

542
02:02:07,119 --> 02:02:08,560
actually adopted three different

543
02:02:08,560 --> 02:02:10,560
programs to make sure we've accommodate

544
02:02:10,560 --> 02:02:13,440
all of our learners.

545
02:02:13,440 --> 02:02:15,840
The first program we adopted is Everyday

546
02:02:15,840 --> 02:02:19,440
Speech. This has an expansive digital

547
02:02:19,440 --> 02:02:21,360
library and has a lot of modeling

548
02:02:21,360 --> 02:02:23,440
lessons specifically tailored for our

549
02:02:23,440 --> 02:02:25,440
students with significant cognitive

550
02:02:25,440 --> 02:02:28,080
disabilities. So these are easy to use,

551
02:02:28,080 --> 02:02:30,400
easy to understand, short and

552
02:02:30,400 --> 02:02:33,520
digestible. Um they keep even our most

553
02:02:33,520 --> 02:02:37,280
struggling learners engaged. And for our

554
02:02:37,280 --> 02:02:39,599
uh you know struggling learners, it does

555
02:02:39,599 --> 02:02:41,599
include some games and some worksheet

556
02:02:41,599 --> 02:02:43,520
components as well. So, this would be

557
02:02:43,520 --> 02:02:45,520
for our more significantly cognitively

558
02:02:45,520 --> 02:02:48,239
disabled students.

559
02:02:48,239 --> 02:02:49,840
The next one is for our older high

560
02:02:49,840 --> 02:02:51,280
school students. This is an

561
02:02:51,280 --> 02:02:53,520
evidence-based curriculum developed by

562
02:02:53,520 --> 02:02:56,400
UCLA called Peers. It's backed by

563
02:02:56,400 --> 02:02:59,040
research and shows even long-term gains

564
02:02:59,040 --> 02:03:02,560
3 to five years after intervention. This

565
02:03:02,560 --> 02:03:04,719
is ideal for our populations that have

566
02:03:04,719 --> 02:03:07,040
average to high cognitive capability,

567
02:03:07,040 --> 02:03:09,679
but also have difficulty navigating

568
02:03:09,679 --> 02:03:12,320
social situations. You can imagine this

569
02:03:12,320 --> 02:03:14,239
would be for a student maybe with high

570
02:03:14,239 --> 02:03:15,840
functioning autism who does well

571
02:03:15,840 --> 02:03:18,320
academically but struggles socially. So

572
02:03:18,320 --> 02:03:20,880
those that profile of students this has

573
02:03:20,880 --> 02:03:22,480
a lot of modeling and it's best

574
02:03:22,480 --> 02:03:24,639
practiced in groups which is helpful for

575
02:03:24,639 --> 02:03:27,760
our social workers as they um help

576
02:03:27,760 --> 02:03:30,560
students combine their skills and and

577
02:03:30,560 --> 02:03:32,960
work together.

578
02:03:32,960 --> 02:03:36,159
The last one is social thinking. Um this

579
02:03:36,159 --> 02:03:38,800
focuses on the cognitive processes that

580
02:03:38,800 --> 02:03:41,520
drive social skills. In other words,

581
02:03:41,520 --> 02:03:44,239
this uh program teaches them to think

582
02:03:44,239 --> 02:03:46,800
about how other people are thinking. So

583
02:03:46,800 --> 02:03:49,360
those complexities um teaches them to

584
02:03:49,360 --> 02:03:52,000
initiate to listen to abstract what

585
02:03:52,000 --> 02:03:54,560
things mean getting the big picture and

586
02:03:54,560 --> 02:03:57,199
then doing so with humor and relatedness

587
02:03:57,199 --> 02:04:01,199
that's appropriate. So with these three

588
02:04:01,199 --> 02:04:04,320
different um curricula,

589
02:04:04,320 --> 02:04:07,199
we can provide IEP services that are

590
02:04:07,199 --> 02:04:09,760
researchbased

591
02:04:09,760 --> 02:04:12,159
um in the in the social skills and then

592
02:04:12,159 --> 02:04:13,840
support the whole spectrum of students

593
02:04:13,840 --> 02:04:17,510
with disabilities.

594
02:04:17,520 --> 02:04:19,599
Our rollout plan and training sequence

595
02:04:19,599 --> 02:04:22,239
timeline for is for this fall and then

596
02:04:22,239 --> 02:04:23,920
we will have a midyear review and

597
02:04:23,920 --> 02:04:26,560
analysis of the progress in January. At

598
02:04:26,560 --> 02:04:28,239
that time, we could do any future

599
02:04:28,239 --> 02:04:31,840
training that is needed.

600
02:04:31,840 --> 02:04:33,920
Tomorrow, we will hold a parent meeting

601
02:04:33,920 --> 02:04:35,599
um where parents can come and see the

602
02:04:35,599 --> 02:04:37,840
content, ask any questions they have.

603
02:04:37,840 --> 02:04:39,520
We'll hold that via Zoom from 4:00 to

604
02:04:39,520 --> 02:04:41,599
5:00 p.m. and Colton has posted that on

605
02:04:41,599 --> 02:04:44,239
our website.

606
02:04:44,239 --> 02:04:46,880
I'm happy to answer any questions you

607
02:04:46,880 --> 02:04:52,709
may have.

608
02:04:52,719 --> 02:04:54,480
Dr.

609
02:04:54,480 --> 02:04:56,560
do parents have to opt in or is this

610
02:04:56,560 --> 02:04:58,000
part of the IEP?

611
02:04:58,000 --> 02:05:00,560
>> This would be um students who have IEP

612
02:05:00,560 --> 02:05:05,040
goals um that are based in in searches

613
02:05:05,040 --> 02:05:07,280
>> and do you have an idea or an estimate

614
02:05:07,280 --> 02:05:09,599
of how many of the high schoolers for

615
02:05:09,599 --> 02:05:11,840
example would be using this?

616
02:05:11,840 --> 02:05:13,679
>> So in high school alone we would

617
02:05:13,679 --> 02:05:15,920
probably have 35 students who are on

618
02:05:15,920 --> 02:05:20,320
IEPs accessing social skills. Um so so a

619
02:05:20,320 --> 02:05:23,040
variety of of disabilities actually

620
02:05:23,040 --> 02:05:29,510
access this this type of program.

621
02:05:29,520 --> 02:05:31,360
» I have one question. We go to the first

622
02:05:31,360 --> 02:05:46,550
slide.

623
02:05:46,560 --> 02:05:50,960
uh we have 92% of our

624
02:05:50,960 --> 02:05:52,560
state students who are graduating.

625
02:05:52,560 --> 02:05:54,480
>> Yes sir.

626
02:05:54,480 --> 02:05:56,480
>> What's the

627
02:05:56,480 --> 02:05:59,920
state graduation rate generally?

628
02:05:59,920 --> 02:06:02,320
>> Not that good. Um I believe

629
02:06:02,320 --> 02:06:05,760
>> I believe it is around 80%

630
02:06:05,760 --> 02:06:08,400
um for the schools who are doing well.

631
02:06:08,400 --> 02:06:12,000
Um, generally speaking, and some years

632
02:06:12,000 --> 02:06:14,159
that has been actually 100%. And

633
02:06:14,159 --> 02:06:17,199
>> what is it for old students? Say what?

634
02:06:17,199 --> 02:06:19,599
>> Um, I h I I'll have to look, but I'm

635
02:06:19,599 --> 02:06:21,199
happy to get that to you. I think it's

636
02:06:21,199 --> 02:06:23,360
somewhere between 70 and 80%.

637
02:06:23,360 --> 02:06:25,760
>> So either way, especially graduating at

638
02:06:25,760 --> 02:06:28,159
a high rate. That's

639
02:06:28,159 --> 02:06:30,000
>> Yes. And our students are also

640
02:06:30,000 --> 02:06:32,400
outperforming our general education

641
02:06:32,400 --> 02:06:34,239
students statewide. So, our special

642
02:06:34,239 --> 02:06:36,000
education students are making more than

643
02:06:36,000 --> 02:06:38,880
50% growth every single year. That's

644
02:06:38,880 --> 02:06:40,880
outperforming all of the other general

645
02:06:40,880 --> 02:06:43,599
education students statewide.

646
02:06:43,599 --> 02:06:46,320
>> I wish these students should pay 21 or

647
02:06:46,320 --> 02:06:48,400
22 that included in that.

648
02:06:48,400 --> 02:06:51,840
>> Um, so this is actually for RISE only.

649
02:06:51,840 --> 02:06:53,199
Are students with more complex

650
02:06:53,199 --> 02:06:54,800
disabilities taking alternate

651
02:06:54,800 --> 02:06:57,119
assessment? And we also outperformed the

652
02:06:57,119 --> 02:07:01,430
state there as well.

653
02:07:01,440 --> 02:07:04,800
So the state rate was 89.8%.

654
02:07:04,800 --> 02:07:08,960
Uh for the cohort of 2025

655
02:07:08,960 --> 02:07:11,440
recognizing that the way in which the

656
02:07:11,440 --> 02:07:14,079
state measures graduation and is a

657
02:07:14,079 --> 02:07:17,199
student who starts at that school in 9th

658
02:07:17,199 --> 02:07:20,079
grade and finishes in 12th grade.

659
02:07:20,079 --> 02:07:22,239
>> So we came in

660
02:07:22,239 --> 02:07:24,239
>> you would not be considered as part of

661
02:07:24,239 --> 02:07:26,800
that cohort.

662
02:07:26,800 --> 02:07:30,719
eager candidate against someone else's

663
02:07:30,719 --> 02:07:31,280
count.

664
02:07:31,280 --> 02:07:33,599
>> You get counted but not part of the

665
02:07:33,599 --> 02:07:36,239
state cohort. So they're looking for

666
02:07:36,239 --> 02:07:37,599
ninth to 12.

667
02:07:37,599 --> 02:07:37,920
>> Okay.

668
02:07:37,920 --> 02:07:40,560
>> Oftentimes we may report out we had a

669
02:07:40,560 --> 02:07:43,599
you know 98% graduation rate.

670
02:07:43,599 --> 02:07:45,920
>> Um that could be those seniors who

671
02:07:45,920 --> 02:07:48,000
started with us in August and finished

672
02:07:48,000 --> 02:07:50,800
with us in June, not necessarily started

673
02:07:50,800 --> 02:07:54,239
with us as a freshman.

674
02:07:54,239 --> 02:07:56,079
So, prior to open enrollment, all of our

675
02:07:56,079 --> 02:07:58,159
students would have have been with us

676
02:07:58,159 --> 02:08:09,750
and gone through the system.

677
02:08:09,760 --> 02:08:11,520
Any other question?

678
02:08:11,520 --> 02:08:14,560
>> So, yeah. Are you asking when we were

679
02:08:14,560 --> 02:08:17,199
asked to looking at the second slide

680
02:08:17,199 --> 02:08:20,960
that's in the agenda with the cost that

681
02:08:20,960 --> 02:08:23,520
you're asking for? Um, yes, Lori Pierce

682
02:08:23,520 --> 02:08:25,520
has the cost sheet for you and it is

683
02:08:25,520 --> 02:08:46,069
included in the budget request for this.

684
02:08:46,079 --> 02:08:48,560
» No, this is a just a presentation and

685
02:08:48,560 --> 02:08:50,320
discussion. I believe it's a decision

686
02:08:50,320 --> 02:08:53,280
item in June.

687
02:08:53,280 --> 02:08:58,229
>> Thank you.

688
02:08:58,239 --> 02:09:07,990
» Five.

689
02:09:08,000 --> 02:09:09,920
It is so much fun to get to come talk

690
02:09:09,920 --> 02:09:11,599
about Park State High School at the end

691
02:09:11,599 --> 02:09:13,280
of the year loaded with all of the

692
02:09:13,280 --> 02:09:15,760
incredible data and feats that our

693
02:09:15,760 --> 02:09:17,840
school has accomplished for what before

694
02:09:17,840 --> 02:09:19,760
presentation gets pulled up. I think as

695
02:09:19,760 --> 02:09:21,440
I was processing like Park City High

696
02:09:21,440 --> 02:09:23,440
School in a year, you what happens at

697
02:09:23,440 --> 02:09:24,719
Park State High School is because you

698
02:09:24,719 --> 02:09:26,880
take this incredible community, parents,

699
02:09:26,880 --> 02:09:29,520
students, board leadership, right? And

700
02:09:29,520 --> 02:09:30,960
then you have all these presentations

701
02:09:30,960 --> 02:09:33,199
from elementary schools and eer and

702
02:09:33,199 --> 02:09:34,320
you've seen all the good work they're

703
02:09:34,320 --> 02:09:37,199
doing. Put that all in a pot, add our

704
02:09:37,199 --> 02:09:40,079
worldass staff to it, and it is world

705
02:09:40,079 --> 02:09:42,239
class. Sprinkle some uh seasoning from

706
02:09:42,239 --> 02:09:43,840
the Ed Foundation, maybe some fairy dust

707
02:09:43,840 --> 02:09:45,920
from the Foundation, and you get this.

708
02:09:45,920 --> 02:09:50,000
And it's incredible. Um, it is so easy

709
02:09:50,000 --> 02:09:52,239
to brag about parks. I'll talk about

710
02:09:52,239 --> 02:09:54,400
what we're doing to improve, but I get

711
02:09:54,400 --> 02:09:56,639
to start by saying what a year and what

712
02:09:56,639 --> 02:09:57,840
we accomplished. So, if you want to go

713
02:09:57,840 --> 02:09:59,920
to the next slide, I I just uh well,

714
02:09:59,920 --> 02:10:01,119
that's fishing and vision. I hope you

715
02:10:01,119 --> 02:10:02,560
all know it, right? We're inspiring and

716
02:10:02,560 --> 02:10:04,159
supporting all students equally achieve

717
02:10:04,159 --> 02:10:05,920
their academic and social potential. But

718
02:10:05,920 --> 02:10:07,679
go to the next one. I wanted to capture

719
02:10:07,679 --> 02:10:09,520
some pictures that show how that came to

720
02:10:09,520 --> 02:10:11,119
life at Parksley High School. We'll

721
02:10:11,119 --> 02:10:13,119
start in the center. So excited. This

722
02:10:13,119 --> 02:10:15,119
year we brought on Unified Sports. Uh

723
02:10:15,119 --> 02:10:17,360
both a basketball team and a dance team.

724
02:10:17,360 --> 02:10:19,440
Uh and it was so much fun. Unified is

725
02:10:19,440 --> 02:10:21,119
for our students with complex needs or

726
02:10:21,119 --> 02:10:23,280
special needs get to compete in sports.

727
02:10:23,280 --> 02:10:24,639
It's the first time we've ever had it at

728
02:10:24,639 --> 02:10:26,239
Park City High School. Our basketball

729
02:10:26,239 --> 02:10:28,719
team won a state championship. Uh huge

730
02:10:28,719 --> 02:10:30,639
kudos to their coach, Zach Blazak, who

731
02:10:30,639 --> 02:10:33,280
is a special ed aid and they had a

732
02:10:33,280 --> 02:10:35,840
blast. I got to go down to games. It is

733
02:10:35,840 --> 02:10:37,920
the best day of the year only to be

734
02:10:37,920 --> 02:10:41,679
taught by our dance team uh dancing. Uh

735
02:10:41,679 --> 02:10:43,840
recent last Friday I was at watching

736
02:10:43,840 --> 02:10:46,400
them uh dance and it is a joy and a

737
02:10:46,400 --> 02:10:48,480
privilege. Miss Anderson helped start

738
02:10:48,480 --> 02:10:50,400
that program this year. So you want to

739
02:10:50,400 --> 02:10:52,000
talk about letting people reach their

740
02:10:52,000 --> 02:10:53,760
potential and giving them access. We

741
02:10:53,760 --> 02:10:55,679
were able to do that. Top left you have

742
02:10:55,679 --> 02:10:57,760
student council. Top right you have

743
02:10:57,760 --> 02:11:00,079
girls golf winning state championship.

744
02:11:00,079 --> 02:11:03,360
Uh bottom right you've got uh a student

745
02:11:03,360 --> 02:11:04,960
in a construction tech class which I

746
02:11:04,960 --> 02:11:08,239
love. Our CTE program is pretty good.

747
02:11:08,239 --> 02:11:10,880
>> We've had we got we've had pretty good

748
02:11:10,880 --> 02:11:12,480
leadership in that department for a

749
02:11:12,480 --> 02:11:15,040
while now. So by pretty good it's

750
02:11:15,040 --> 02:11:16,639
incredible

751
02:11:16,639 --> 02:11:18,960
like the best the best and uh and that's

752
02:11:18,960 --> 02:11:20,800
an example of that. Uh bottom left

753
02:11:20,800 --> 02:11:22,560
that's a that's where we should get

754
02:11:22,560 --> 02:11:24,079
funding from maybe like the board of

755
02:11:24,079 --> 02:11:25,760
realators because that's a signing day

756
02:11:25,760 --> 02:11:29,040
with Yale, Dartmouth and MIT. That's not

757
02:11:29,040 --> 02:11:31,520
abnormal to Park City. Um, signing days

758
02:11:31,520 --> 02:11:33,199
are such a celebration. I'd encourage

759
02:11:33,199 --> 02:11:34,880
anyone to go because you want to talk

760
02:11:34,880 --> 02:11:36,560
about kids reaching their potential,

761
02:11:36,560 --> 02:11:38,960
getting to go on and and play sports or

762
02:11:38,960 --> 02:11:41,119
be a part of activities in college. It's

763
02:11:41,119 --> 02:11:43,119
a special day. That one, I chuckled at

764
02:11:43,119 --> 02:11:44,560
that one and said that that the

765
02:11:44,560 --> 02:11:46,000
realators are going to like that one a

766
02:11:46,000 --> 02:11:47,520
lot. You can go to the next slide. I

767
02:11:47,520 --> 02:11:49,440
couldn't stop here. Uh, top left, we

768
02:11:49,440 --> 02:11:50,880
started the year off girls cross country

769
02:11:50,880 --> 02:11:52,639
winning a state championship. Bottom

770
02:11:52,639 --> 02:11:55,599
left, state band, performing arts. Uh,

771
02:11:55,599 --> 02:11:58,000
incredible. Uh there's one picture

772
02:11:58,000 --> 02:11:59,760
better than the rest. That's the LIA

773
02:11:59,760 --> 02:12:01,679
picture. That's cuz Colton took it. The

774
02:12:01,679 --> 02:12:04,719
rest of them are amateur with my iPhone.

775
02:12:04,719 --> 02:12:08,239
But uh that's our LIA uh Day of the Dead

776
02:12:08,239 --> 02:12:10,079
celebration to watch our students get to

777
02:12:10,079 --> 02:12:12,079
embrace their culture and heritage. It's

778
02:12:12,079 --> 02:12:14,239
as beautiful or more beautiful than the

779
02:12:14,239 --> 02:12:17,119
picture. Um debate in the middle bottom

780
02:12:17,119 --> 02:12:18,880
there. Listen to this. Miss Williams

781
02:12:18,880 --> 02:12:22,639
sent me this of the seniors uh going

782
02:12:22,639 --> 02:12:24,320
that are in debate. This is where

783
02:12:24,320 --> 02:12:26,239
they're going. Harvard, Yale,

784
02:12:26,239 --> 02:12:28,400
Vanderbilt, Uski, Boulder, U Washington,

785
02:12:28,400 --> 02:12:32,639
USC, Depal, Montana State, and UVU. So

786
02:12:32,639 --> 02:12:34,800
that's a little secret sauce for

787
02:12:34,800 --> 02:12:37,440
colleges. And in the right, we have

788
02:12:37,440 --> 02:12:39,280
Sterling Scholars, but we also have kids

789
02:12:39,280 --> 02:12:41,440
going to trade schools. We have kids

790
02:12:41,440 --> 02:12:44,480
going to uh on on religious missions. We

791
02:12:44,480 --> 02:12:46,880
have kids that are reaching their dreams

792
02:12:46,880 --> 02:12:49,360
out of high school at a profound level.

793
02:12:49,360 --> 02:12:51,360
And again, it's the pot. We're pouring

794
02:12:51,360 --> 02:12:53,199
all this in the pot. And we get at Park

795
02:12:53,199 --> 02:12:55,440
City High School to see it. And we see

796
02:12:55,440 --> 02:12:57,119
it more than any other school. And not

797
02:12:57,119 --> 02:12:58,719
that the elementary schools don't get to

798
02:12:58,719 --> 02:13:00,960
see it, but we literally get to see them

799
02:13:00,960 --> 02:13:03,520
walk across the line on June 5th and

800
02:13:03,520 --> 02:13:05,199
throw their caps in the air. And that is

801
02:13:05,199 --> 02:13:07,040
that's what we do. So, it's a privilege

802
02:13:07,040 --> 02:13:08,719
to be at Park City High School because

803
02:13:08,719 --> 02:13:10,320
that's what I see every day. I just

804
02:13:10,320 --> 02:13:11,920
watch the mission and vision come to

805
02:13:11,920 --> 02:13:13,599
life. These are just a few small

806
02:13:13,599 --> 02:13:15,520
examples of that and wanted to share

807
02:13:15,520 --> 02:13:17,360
some pictures with you. You can jump to

808
02:13:17,360 --> 02:13:20,239
the next slide. Um, academic success,

809
02:13:20,239 --> 02:13:23,199
you've got a lot of data from our school

810
02:13:23,199 --> 02:13:25,119
right now. We did receive number five

811
02:13:25,119 --> 02:13:27,440
ranking in the state. Uh and I'll talk a

812
02:13:27,440 --> 02:13:29,199
little bit more about that. Why we did

813
02:13:29,199 --> 02:13:31,760
is in the middle there. It show uh it

814
02:13:31,760 --> 02:13:33,920
shows our data. We're ranked number one.

815
02:13:33,920 --> 02:13:36,239
And college curriculum is really our

816
02:13:36,239 --> 02:13:38,000
bread and butter. Proficiency is where

817
02:13:38,000 --> 02:13:39,760
we have some work to do, but I'm going

818
02:13:39,760 --> 02:13:41,520
to highlight that in a moment. And then

819
02:13:41,520 --> 02:13:44,400
uh just some other data points. 270 AP

820
02:13:44,400 --> 02:13:45,840
tests given this year. That's not the

821
02:13:45,840 --> 02:13:47,760
most ever. That's the second most ever.

822
02:13:47,760 --> 02:13:50,560
Average ACT score 23.5. Although that

823
02:13:50,560 --> 02:13:52,480
might be going up because I guess AT

824
02:13:52,480 --> 02:13:55,840
screwed up uh how they scored and only

825
02:13:55,840 --> 02:13:59,040
scores are going up. 4,964

826
02:13:59,040 --> 02:14:00,719
concurrent enrollment credit hours

827
02:14:00,719 --> 02:14:03,280
earned for college in addition to the AP

828
02:14:03,280 --> 02:14:05,920
test. Huge shout out to Adrien Wley and

829
02:14:05,920 --> 02:14:07,840
her team. Uh one of the awards that

830
02:14:07,840 --> 02:14:09,679
we're most excited about this year is

831
02:14:09,679 --> 02:14:11,440
the right that's from the state office

832
02:14:11,440 --> 02:14:14,320
of education and that is for our ML

833
02:14:14,320 --> 02:14:16,480
students accessing college and career

834
02:14:16,480 --> 02:14:18,719
readiness courses as well as AP courses.

835
02:14:18,719 --> 02:14:20,800
So that is a huge shout out to our dream

836
02:14:20,800 --> 02:14:22,960
big program, Mel Moffet, Anna Williams

837
02:14:22,960 --> 02:14:24,960
and Sykes again, Adrian Woolly

838
02:14:24,960 --> 02:14:26,719
supporting concurrent enrollment and our

839
02:14:26,719 --> 02:14:29,520
AP teachers encouraging all students to

840
02:14:29,520 --> 02:14:31,199
take these rigorous classes that make

841
02:14:31,199 --> 02:14:33,520
Park City High School so special.

842
02:14:33,520 --> 02:14:40,709
>> Do we have the financial value

843
02:14:40,719 --> 02:14:43,360
just over 1.8 8 million in college

844
02:14:43,360 --> 02:14:44,400
tuition.

845
02:14:44,400 --> 02:14:46,079
>> That's in the concurrent enrollment.

846
02:14:46,079 --> 02:14:48,000
That doesn't include the AP and that's

847
02:14:48,000 --> 02:14:51,360
priced at UBU as an average rate. So

848
02:14:51,360 --> 02:14:53,520
could be more, but 1.8 million for

849
02:14:53,520 --> 02:14:55,520
concurrent enrollment through UVU alone.

850
02:14:55,520 --> 02:14:58,960
Uh let alone the 2170 AP test at a three

851
02:14:58,960 --> 02:15:00,880
credit hour. That's that's an additional

852
02:15:00,880 --> 02:15:03,440
6,000 plus credit hours all accepted

853
02:15:03,440 --> 02:15:05,360
which is another two plus million

854
02:15:05,360 --> 02:15:07,679
dollars. It's a good day. It's a good

855
02:15:07,679 --> 02:15:08,800
day.

856
02:15:08,800 --> 02:15:10,320
>> We can jump to the next slide. So, I

857
02:15:10,320 --> 02:15:12,000
want to dive into that national ranking

858
02:15:12,000 --> 02:15:14,639
uh a little bit more. Um the the left

859
02:15:14,639 --> 02:15:17,199
scorecard, the 94.92, that's Park City

860
02:15:17,199 --> 02:15:20,239
scorecard. Um the the middle scorecard

861
02:15:20,239 --> 02:15:22,000
is uh the top ranked school in the

862
02:15:22,000 --> 02:15:24,320
state. That's Beehive. And uh you can

863
02:15:24,320 --> 02:15:26,880
kind of see how we compare. And then

864
02:15:26,880 --> 02:15:29,360
those numbers off to the right. So,

865
02:15:29,360 --> 02:15:33,360
spoiler alert or not, this is 23 22 23

866
02:15:33,360 --> 02:15:36,000
data. Um that's how we got ranked for

867
02:15:36,000 --> 02:15:37,199
this year. It's a little bit

868
02:15:37,199 --> 02:15:39,520
disappointing how slow it is to get to

869
02:15:39,520 --> 02:15:42,000
the data, but our current uh proficiency

870
02:15:42,000 --> 02:15:43,440
data, which we're really proud of, these

871
02:15:43,440 --> 02:15:44,719
are the highest scores Park Proxy High

872
02:15:44,719 --> 02:15:46,639
School's ever had on the Aspire test.

873
02:15:46,639 --> 02:15:50,880
Math 53%, reading 69%, science 70%. So,

874
02:15:50,880 --> 02:15:53,440
look out for our ranking in 2829. It's

875
02:15:53,440 --> 02:15:55,840
going to be really good, really good.

876
02:15:55,840 --> 02:15:57,599
But, you can do the math there. I think

877
02:15:57,599 --> 02:15:59,760
it'll be number one and we're proud of

878
02:15:59,760 --> 02:16:03,119
that. Um, so the the couple highlights

879
02:16:03,119 --> 02:16:05,119
on that on those Aspire scores just to

880
02:16:05,119 --> 02:16:07,520
give you an idea. Um, our math 10 score

881
02:16:07,520 --> 02:16:09,920
is 14% higher, breaking that down a

882
02:16:09,920 --> 02:16:11,440
little bit than the state average, and

883
02:16:11,440 --> 02:16:13,760
it's 4% higher than math 10 was last

884
02:16:13,760 --> 02:16:17,040
year. Our science 10 score is 22% higher

885
02:16:17,040 --> 02:16:19,679
than the state average, and 23% higher

886
02:16:19,679 --> 02:16:22,159
than it was the year prior. Our reading

887
02:16:22,159 --> 02:16:25,360
10 scores is 21% higher than the state

888
02:16:25,360 --> 02:16:27,520
average and 1% higher than it was last

889
02:16:27,520 --> 02:16:31,199
year. Math 9 is 23% higher than the

890
02:16:31,199 --> 02:16:33,280
state average and 4% year-over-year. And

891
02:16:33,280 --> 02:16:35,599
math 10 n has been on a tear for the

892
02:16:35,599 --> 02:16:37,280
last five years they've been working on

893
02:16:37,280 --> 02:16:39,519
this and they're still making gains.

894
02:16:39,519 --> 02:16:42,719
Science uh in ninth grade is 78%

895
02:16:42,719 --> 02:16:44,319
proficient will certainly be the highest

896
02:16:44,319 --> 02:16:46,319
in the state in public schools as we

897
02:16:46,319 --> 02:16:48,960
were last year at a lower rate. Just 28%

898
02:16:48,960 --> 02:16:50,639
higher than the state average and 6%

899
02:16:50,639 --> 02:16:53,040
improvement from last year. And reading

900
02:16:53,040 --> 02:16:55,599
is 20 reading in nth grade is 24% higher

901
02:16:55,599 --> 02:16:57,840
than the state average. It is down 2%

902
02:16:57,840 --> 02:16:59,359
from last year. we were the highest

903
02:16:59,359 --> 02:17:00,960
performing school, but the fact that

904
02:17:00,960 --> 02:17:02,399
they've been able to stay at that bar in

905
02:17:02,399 --> 02:17:04,719
the 70% proficiency, I think is pretty

906
02:17:04,719 --> 02:17:07,120
commendable. Um, so that's kind of

907
02:17:07,120 --> 02:17:10,719
breaking down that 5369 and 70%. Uh, and

908
02:17:10,719 --> 02:17:12,160
we're really proud of that that

909
02:17:12,160 --> 02:17:14,240
movement. What that allows us to do now

910
02:17:14,240 --> 02:17:15,760
is this data is now what I would

911
02:17:15,760 --> 02:17:18,240
consider valid. Um, we took the test

912
02:17:18,240 --> 02:17:20,479
seriously. We did implement some

913
02:17:20,479 --> 02:17:21,920
instructional strategies to improve

914
02:17:21,920 --> 02:17:23,519
those scores, but a big part of it was

915
02:17:23,519 --> 02:17:25,519
simply taking the test seriously. Now we

916
02:17:25,519 --> 02:17:27,040
have valid and reliable data that we can

917
02:17:27,040 --> 02:17:29,679
attack next year. And and because that

918
02:17:29,679 --> 02:17:31,280
data is incredible compared to the

919
02:17:31,280 --> 02:17:33,599
state, it's pretty untouchable. But if

920
02:17:33,599 --> 02:17:35,359
you fall outside of that data, if my

921
02:17:35,359 --> 02:17:37,599
kids in the in the 30% that's not

922
02:17:37,599 --> 02:17:39,599
proficient, great. The data, what are

923
02:17:39,599 --> 02:17:40,800
you doing about my kid? Well, now we

924
02:17:40,800 --> 02:17:42,800
have valid and reliable data. So we put

925
02:17:42,800 --> 02:17:44,960
our teachers in PLC's and we have them

926
02:17:44,960 --> 02:17:46,719
strategically address the gaps and needs

927
02:17:46,719 --> 02:17:49,280
of kids. And you do that over and over

928
02:17:49,280 --> 02:17:50,559
again. And that's how personalized money

929
02:17:50,559 --> 02:17:52,080
comes to life. And that's how we keep

930
02:17:52,080 --> 02:17:53,679
meeting kids where they're at. because I

931
02:17:53,679 --> 02:17:55,200
love the data and I want to be number

932
02:17:55,200 --> 02:17:57,519
one, but I don't really care what US

933
02:17:57,519 --> 02:17:58,880
News and World Reports because I want

934
02:17:58,880 --> 02:18:00,080
every kid to leave Park City High School

935
02:18:00,080 --> 02:18:01,439
and say it's the best high school in the

936
02:18:01,439 --> 02:18:03,519
world because if they go that that way

937
02:18:03,519 --> 02:18:06,160
they they were loved,

938
02:18:06,160 --> 02:18:08,399
they were challenged, they learned, and

939
02:18:08,399 --> 02:18:11,200
they feel prepared. The data will happen

940
02:18:11,200 --> 02:18:12,960
as we continue to do that because it's

941
02:18:12,960 --> 02:18:15,120
already happening. But that's what we

942
02:18:15,120 --> 02:18:16,559
want every kid to leave. And we're not

943
02:18:16,559 --> 02:18:18,240
there yet. A lot of kids say it's the

944
02:18:18,240 --> 02:18:19,920
best high school in the state, best high

945
02:18:19,920 --> 02:18:21,519
school in the world. But there are kids

946
02:18:21,519 --> 02:18:23,200
that are not saying that right now. So

947
02:18:23,200 --> 02:18:24,559
that's what we have to why we have to

948
02:18:24,559 --> 02:18:26,319
stay on this journey of personalizing

949
02:18:26,319 --> 02:18:28,559
learning and making it more special. Um

950
02:18:28,559 --> 02:18:29,920
we're going to celebrate a heck of a lot

951
02:18:29,920 --> 02:18:31,519
along the way. Our staff deserves that.

952
02:18:31,519 --> 02:18:33,679
Our kids deserve that. You deserve that.

953
02:18:33,679 --> 02:18:35,599
This is a celebration of all of us.

954
02:18:35,599 --> 02:18:37,120
Celebration of the elementary schools.

955
02:18:37,120 --> 02:18:38,880
You can jump to the next slide. We

956
02:18:38,880 --> 02:18:40,319
talked about some of the things we do,

957
02:18:40,319 --> 02:18:41,439
some of the things that are fun about

958
02:18:41,439 --> 02:18:44,000
Park City High School. Um up there, we

959
02:18:44,000 --> 02:18:45,519
believe in PLC's at Park City High

960
02:18:45,519 --> 02:18:46,719
School. That's our tracking, those

961
02:18:46,719 --> 02:18:48,639
little dots and check marks. We're

962
02:18:48,639 --> 02:18:51,040
tracking every teacher. how many uh

963
02:18:51,040 --> 02:18:52,639
meetings they're in, how many meetings

964
02:18:52,639 --> 02:18:55,040
happen on a weekly basis on Friday. Uh

965
02:18:55,040 --> 02:18:56,800
we provide feedback on their meetings

966
02:18:56,800 --> 02:18:59,120
based on a tracker they submit. So it

967
02:18:59,120 --> 02:19:00,880
provides a level of accountability, but

968
02:19:00,880 --> 02:19:02,800
it's also uh the meetings are teacher

969
02:19:02,800 --> 02:19:04,719
run. They know how to deal with it. We

970
02:19:04,719 --> 02:19:06,319
just ask for feedback. Do they love the

971
02:19:06,319 --> 02:19:09,280
trackers? Probably not. Um but we want

972
02:19:09,280 --> 02:19:10,719
them to be in a small amount of

973
02:19:10,719 --> 02:19:12,479
discomfort. It's like exercise. We don't

974
02:19:12,479 --> 02:19:13,599
want them to kill themselves because

975
02:19:13,599 --> 02:19:15,120
then they can't get up for a week. We

976
02:19:15,120 --> 02:19:16,800
want just that slight discomfort to keep

977
02:19:16,800 --> 02:19:18,559
pushing. And then we pull back and feed

978
02:19:18,559 --> 02:19:19,679
them and make sure that they have those

979
02:19:19,679 --> 02:19:21,760
good days to rest and celebrate as well.

980
02:19:21,760 --> 02:19:23,760
Uh we have a building leadership team

981
02:19:23,760 --> 02:19:25,760
and uh and an operational leadership

982
02:19:25,760 --> 02:19:28,639
team made of teachers uh and staff. The

983
02:19:28,639 --> 02:19:29,920
high school is so special because we

984
02:19:29,920 --> 02:19:31,519
also have students in leadership role

985
02:19:31,519 --> 02:19:33,439
student council latinos in action. The

986
02:19:33,439 --> 02:19:35,200
minor athletic advisory committee,

987
02:19:35,200 --> 02:19:37,040
national honors society, all to name a

988
02:19:37,040 --> 02:19:40,399
few. Um culture as the superintendent

989
02:19:40,399 --> 02:19:42,479
will tell you strategy for breakfast,

990
02:19:42,479 --> 02:19:44,399
lunch and dinner. We could not be more

991
02:19:44,399 --> 02:19:46,479
aligned in that. Um, one of the things

992
02:19:46,479 --> 02:19:48,000
we do to try to keep things fun is we

993
02:19:48,000 --> 02:19:49,520
had a staff at Winter Games. During the

994
02:19:49,520 --> 02:19:51,040
Olympics, we were having Winter Games

995
02:19:51,040 --> 02:19:54,319
and uh, we had a lot of fun competition.

996
02:19:54,319 --> 02:19:55,600
You've got to smile. You got to make

997
02:19:55,600 --> 02:19:58,000
things fun for your staff. I want our

998
02:19:58,000 --> 02:19:59,760
staff to come to work and say, "It's fun

999
02:19:59,760 --> 02:20:02,479
to work here." And, um, not every staff

1000
02:20:02,479 --> 02:20:04,240
member loves every little silly game we

1001
02:20:04,240 --> 02:20:05,840
play, but if we do enough silly little

1002
02:20:05,840 --> 02:20:07,040
things, we're going to connect with them

1003
02:20:07,040 --> 02:20:08,000
somewhere.

1004
02:20:08,000 --> 02:20:10,800
>> And then um, I don't pretend to be the

1005
02:20:10,800 --> 02:20:13,120
best uh, at anything that supporting our

1006
02:20:13,120 --> 02:20:15,040
MLS. That's an example of a PD that was

1007
02:20:15,040 --> 02:20:17,040
led by our MLA teachers for our whole

1008
02:20:17,040 --> 02:20:18,960
staff. And great thing about Park State

1009
02:20:18,960 --> 02:20:20,240
High School is I don't have to be the

1010
02:20:20,240 --> 02:20:22,319
expert in anything because I've got

1011
02:20:22,319 --> 02:20:24,240
experts everywhere. So, we try to lift

1012
02:20:24,240 --> 02:20:26,160
those experts up. That's an example of

1013
02:20:26,160 --> 02:20:28,640
uh of the PD that uh was put on by

1014
02:20:28,640 --> 02:20:31,200
staff, not by uh administrators. Go to

1015
02:20:31,200 --> 02:20:33,760
the next slide for Drew. Um so,

1016
02:20:33,760 --> 02:20:35,920
communication. Uh some of the highlights

1017
02:20:35,920 --> 02:20:37,840
of how we communicate. Most people know

1018
02:20:37,840 --> 02:20:40,399
me as the YouTube video guy. Um, I

1019
02:20:40,399 --> 02:20:42,000
regularly go out and about and they're

1020
02:20:42,000 --> 02:20:46,240
like, I think I know you. It's like you watch me on YouTube. My video notes.

1021
02:20:46,240 --> 02:20:49,040
We also have a a weekly newsletter uh

1022
02:20:49,040 --> 02:20:50,399
that goes out every week in

1023
02:20:50,399 --> 02:20:51,840
collaboration with our PTO. We call it

1024
02:20:51,840 --> 02:20:53,520
the silver scoop. We have a weekly

1025
02:20:53,520 --> 02:20:55,439
calendar uh and notes that go out to the

1026
02:20:55,439 --> 02:20:56,880
staff. That's a weekly calendar you see

1027
02:20:56,880 --> 02:20:58,319
on the left. One thing we've done this

1028
02:20:58,319 --> 02:20:59,920
year, Jamie Sheets, Chris Bear really

1029
02:20:59,920 --> 02:21:01,439
helped us get this off the ground over

1030
02:21:01,439 --> 02:21:03,280
the course of the last year. We've moved

1031
02:21:03,280 --> 02:21:04,960
to a model where all of our athletics

1032
02:21:04,960 --> 02:21:06,640
and activities communicate through one

1033
02:21:06,640 --> 02:21:08,720
platform sports. No more figuring out

1034
02:21:08,720 --> 02:21:10,800
different platforms. Uh sports you we

1035
02:21:10,800 --> 02:21:12,160
also have access to everything in the

1036
02:21:12,160 --> 02:21:13,439
background. We had to use it once this

1037
02:21:13,439 --> 02:21:15,280
year. We need to see some messaging to

1038
02:21:15,280 --> 02:21:17,359
verify that everything was above board.

1039
02:21:17,359 --> 02:21:20,479
It was actually um it wasn't we our

1040
02:21:20,479 --> 02:21:22,560
staff specifically but you call sports

1041
02:21:22,560 --> 02:21:24,319
you we immediately have access to all

1042
02:21:24,319 --> 02:21:26,319
the messaging so we can see it offers a

1043
02:21:26,319 --> 02:21:28,080
safety protection as well. So those are

1044
02:21:28,080 --> 02:21:29,439
some of the examples of how we're trying

1045
02:21:29,439 --> 02:21:31,120
to create efficient and effective

1046
02:21:31,120 --> 02:21:32,880
communication. We'll jump to the next

1047
02:21:32,880 --> 02:21:35,280
one. Community alliances are huge. Uh,

1048
02:21:35,280 --> 02:21:36,880
I'd be remiss this year if I didn't give

1049
02:21:36,880 --> 02:21:38,640
a huge shout out to Basin Recreation and

1050
02:21:38,640 --> 02:21:40,880
Park City Recreation. We couldn't use

1051
02:21:40,880 --> 02:21:43,040
our fields. Our girls just won the

1052
02:21:43,040 --> 02:21:44,960
semi-finals of the state lacrosse game

1053
02:21:44,960 --> 02:21:48,080
because uh both BAS and the and the PC

1054
02:21:48,080 --> 02:21:49,760
Recreation said, "We're happy to help.

1055
02:21:49,760 --> 02:21:51,439
Let us know what you need." And they

1056
02:21:51,439 --> 02:21:53,280
went above and beyond. Uh, great

1057
02:21:53,280 --> 02:21:55,840
partners. Community Foundation supports

1058
02:21:55,840 --> 02:21:58,479
us through uh United and other endeavors

1059
02:21:58,479 --> 02:22:00,960
like uh Live PC and Get PC. We're

1060
02:22:00,960 --> 02:22:02,960
grateful for their uh we have the best

1061
02:22:02,960 --> 02:22:05,200
SRO in the state. Uh he's incredible.

1062
02:22:05,200 --> 02:22:08,000
Art is world class and we just feel like

1063
02:22:08,000 --> 02:22:10,000
our students and staff are much safer

1064
02:22:10,000 --> 02:22:11,359
because we have an SRO on the building.

1065
02:22:11,359 --> 02:22:12,720
So we're grateful for the funding that

1066
02:22:12,720 --> 02:22:14,960
you put into that um along with our

1067
02:22:14,960 --> 02:22:16,560
partnership with the Park City Police

1068
02:22:16,560 --> 02:22:18,960
Department. PC CAPS is our program, but

1069
02:22:18,960 --> 02:22:23,600
one thing that makes it so unique is it we are uh interacting our students

1070
02:22:23,600 --> 02:22:24,800
are interacting with so many different

1071
02:22:24,800 --> 02:22:27,040
community partners because of CAPS. And

1072
02:22:27,040 --> 02:22:29,520
then um you we're so excited about what

1073
02:22:29,520 --> 02:22:31,040
the Go Miners Foundation is going to do

1074
02:22:31,040 --> 02:22:32,800
for athletics because we've already seen

1075
02:22:32,800 --> 02:22:34,880
how the Park City Education Foundation

1076
02:22:34,880 --> 02:22:37,040
has exponential impact. I'm telling you,

1077
02:22:37,040 --> 02:22:40,000
their dollar goes farther. It's like you

1078
02:22:40,000 --> 02:22:42,080
get us where we need to be and then they

1079
02:22:42,080 --> 02:22:43,680
can I I'm serious when I say it's that

1080
02:22:43,680 --> 02:22:44,960
flavoring, it's that seasoning. It's

1081
02:22:44,960 --> 02:22:47,359
exponential on the back end. So, um

1082
02:22:47,359 --> 02:22:49,120
they're obviously a partner that every

1083
02:22:49,120 --> 02:22:50,640
school's highlighted as well. So, that's

1084
02:22:50,640 --> 02:22:52,640
a little bit of our community alliances

1085
02:22:52,640 --> 02:22:57,280
and um excellent personnel. uh that some

1086
02:22:57,280 --> 02:22:58,720
fun stories. We have a lot of excellent

1087
02:22:58,720 --> 02:23:00,160
personnel. I want to share a fun couple

1088
02:23:00,160 --> 02:23:01,920
fun stories. I'm at a Utah game and all

1089
02:23:01,920 --> 02:23:03,280
of a sudden I'm like there's on the big

1090
02:23:03,280 --> 02:23:04,640
screen Zack Giddings conducting the

1091
02:23:04,640 --> 02:23:06,720
whole universe Utah that's a that's a

1092
02:23:06,720 --> 02:23:08,479
band teacher. I'm taking pictures of the

1093
02:23:08,479 --> 02:23:10,000
big screen and he didn't even tell me.

1094
02:23:10,000 --> 02:23:11,600
So that was Zach Giddings and that's

1095
02:23:11,600 --> 02:23:13,600
everyone knows how incredible Zach is.

1096
02:23:13,600 --> 02:23:15,280
We got to honor two best friends who are

1097
02:23:15,280 --> 02:23:18,560
retiring. uh Deb and Mary Sue and uh

1098
02:23:18,560 --> 02:23:21,600
Joanna Andre uh won teacher of the year

1099
02:23:21,600 --> 02:23:23,600
and uh you know I have the privilege of

1100
02:23:23,600 --> 02:23:25,280
inviting two other staff members here

1101
02:23:25,280 --> 02:23:27,120
today. They didn't know this but they're

1102
02:23:27,120 --> 02:23:28,800
here to be told how awesome they are as

1103
02:23:28,800 --> 02:23:30,720
well. So I want to talk about Ashley

1104
02:23:30,720 --> 02:23:34,080
Jensen and Dave Feesler for a moment. Um

1105
02:23:34,080 --> 02:23:38,560
Ashley uh it was uh formerly our

1106
02:23:38,560 --> 02:23:40,960
secretary in the counseling and this

1107
02:23:40,960 --> 02:23:42,720
year uh she stepped into a role we

1108
02:23:42,720 --> 02:23:44,479
needed her. there were some shifts that

1109
02:23:44,479 --> 02:23:47,200
needed to be made and uh wonderful Beth

1110
02:23:47,200 --> 02:23:48,880
went to Eker and Ashley stepped up and

1111
02:23:48,880 --> 02:23:52,160
became our admin assistant. That's a job in of itself because you

1112
02:23:52,160 --> 02:23:55,200
have tolerate me all day every day. Um

1113
02:23:55,200 --> 02:23:56,640
and then on top of that when I think

1114
02:23:56,640 --> 02:23:58,319
about Ashley Ashley I think about you're

1115
02:23:58,319 --> 02:23:59,920
you are a culture creator. The

1116
02:23:59,920 --> 02:24:02,080
environment that you have made in the

1117
02:24:02,080 --> 02:24:05,040
main office um you care deeply about

1118
02:24:05,040 --> 02:24:06,880
people. That is what we want when people

1119
02:24:06,880 --> 02:24:08,240
come in. We need them to know they're

1120
02:24:08,240 --> 02:24:09,920
loved and cared about. That's what you

1121
02:24:09,920 --> 02:24:12,640
do. You are always smiling. But my

1122
02:24:12,640 --> 02:24:14,080
favorite thing about you is I can hear

1123
02:24:14,080 --> 02:24:17,520
your smiling leg to see. So I wanted to

1124
02:24:17,520 --> 02:24:18,880
honor you and thank you for the

1125
02:24:18,880 --> 02:24:19,920
difference you've made in the main

1126
02:24:19,920 --> 02:24:27,110
office. And uh

1127
02:24:27,120 --> 02:24:28,800
» we got our second person I wanted to

1128
02:24:28,800 --> 02:24:32,319
honor today is coach Dave Feesler. Um

1129
02:24:32,319 --> 02:24:34,080
coach resigned yesterday as our head

1130
02:24:34,080 --> 02:24:36,160
baseball coach. He's stepping down. Um

1131
02:24:36,160 --> 02:24:38,880
and he has been our head coach for 10

1132
02:24:38,880 --> 02:24:40,560
years. He's also, we'll talk about uh

1133
02:24:40,560 --> 02:24:42,560
his teaching in a moment, but

1134
02:24:42,560 --> 02:24:44,880
conservatively he's worked over 5,000

1135
02:24:44,880 --> 02:24:47,120
hours, and that's a conservative number.

1136
02:24:47,120 --> 02:24:48,479
I can assure you that as our head

1137
02:24:48,479 --> 02:24:51,520
baseball coach, um that's 625 work days,

1138
02:24:51,520 --> 02:24:55,439
nearly two years uh of of of work has

1139
02:24:55,439 --> 02:24:58,080
been put into that. Two 365 day years

1140
02:24:58,080 --> 02:25:00,720
have been put into the baseball program.

1141
02:25:00,720 --> 02:25:05,429
Make a big difference.

1142
02:25:05,439 --> 02:25:07,280
David, they say that 10,000 an hour

1143
02:25:07,280 --> 02:25:08,560
makes you good at something, so you're

1144
02:25:08,560 --> 02:25:11,990
halfway.

1145
02:25:12,000 --> 02:25:14,160
You know, he is also an AP Econ and

1146
02:25:14,160 --> 02:25:16,720
business teacher. Um, I'm very fond of

1147
02:25:16,720 --> 02:25:18,960
the AP Econ program. That's a story for

1148
02:25:18,960 --> 02:25:21,040
another day, but he's grown it. What was

1149
02:25:21,040 --> 02:25:22,640
your pass rate last year, Dave?

1150
02:25:22,640 --> 02:25:23,280
>> 90

1151
02:25:23,280 --> 02:25:25,920
>> 90%. Uh, and it's, uh, it's grown year

1152
02:25:25,920 --> 02:25:28,160
over year. Kids love his classes. He

1153
02:25:28,160 --> 02:25:30,080
teaches PC caps. who's had an incredible

1154
02:25:30,080 --> 02:25:33,600
impact in in our academic program as

1155
02:25:33,600 --> 02:25:35,920
well. It was a lot easier to accept your

1156
02:25:35,920 --> 02:25:37,920
uh resignation stepping down knowing

1157
02:25:37,920 --> 02:25:39,040
you're going to stay on board as a

1158
02:25:39,040 --> 02:25:41,200
teacher and assistant coach. So David, I

1159
02:25:41,200 --> 02:25:42,720
want to honor you today. Thank you for

1160
02:25:42,720 --> 02:25:48,870

1161
02:25:48,880 --> 02:25:50,880
» Thank you Ashley for you guys to join

Yes.

Uh first and foremost, uh I've known

both of you for a long time. Caleb talks

1167
02:26:05,280 --> 02:26:08,720
about a program known as CTE being good

1168
02:26:08,720 --> 02:26:11,439
enough. Um it's an excellent program and

1169
02:26:11,439 --> 02:26:13,520
Dave is one of the reasons that it is an

1170
02:26:13,520 --> 02:26:15,920
excellent program. He teaches business

1171
02:26:15,920 --> 02:26:19,600
and marketing uh in our CTE department.

1172
02:26:19,600 --> 02:26:23,280
Um he is a Park City High School alumni

1173
02:26:23,280 --> 02:26:25,520

count. So, thank you to the two of you

1179
02:26:39,840 --> 02:26:42,240

their restaurants, or a day pass.

1191
02:27:14,319 --> 02:27:15,600
>> Every day pass. Yep.

1192
02:27:15,600 --> 02:27:17,760

1193
02:27:17,760 --> 02:27:21,590
just paper.

1194
02:27:21,600 --> 02:27:23,760
We're grateful to the Ed Foundation as

1195
02:27:23,760 --> 02:27:26,640
well uh for partnering and sponsoring

1196
02:27:26,640 --> 02:27:29,600
this award. Our educators, our staff

1197
02:27:29,600 --> 02:27:31,600
give endless

1198
02:27:31,600 --> 02:27:35,200
hours into our community, our kids, and

1199
02:27:35,200 --> 02:27:37,760
it is oftentimes a thankless job. So,

1200
02:27:37,760 --> 02:27:40,640
this is just a small recognition of

1201
02:27:40,640 --> 02:27:42,640
their efforts that they put forth on a

1202
02:27:42,640 --> 02:27:58,550
daily basis. So, thank you

1203
02:27:58,560 --> 02:28:01,200
One, two, three.

1204
02:28:01,200 --> 02:28:04,479
One more. One, two, three.

1205
02:28:04,479 --> 02:28:06,720
>> Thank you. And since Jamie Sheets is in

1206
02:28:06,720 --> 02:28:07,760
the audience, I'll take this

1207
02:28:07,760 --> 02:28:10,560
opportunity. He is going to step in as

1208
02:28:10,560 --> 02:28:13,359
the head coach of our baseball program.

1209
02:28:13,359 --> 02:28:15,280
He has experience at the collegiate

1210
02:28:15,280 --> 02:28:17,520
level. Dave will stay on as an assistant

1211
02:28:17,520 --> 02:28:20,080
coach, but it helps bring continuity to

1212
02:28:20,080 --> 02:28:31,750
our baseball program.

1213
02:28:31,760 --> 02:28:35,190
All

1214
02:28:35,200 --> 02:28:36,640
right, Caleb, you're still on.

1215
02:28:36,640 --> 02:28:39,439
>> Yeah, well, I wasn't quite done. You

1216
02:28:39,439 --> 02:28:42,080
only get and then I am still on, but I

1217
02:28:42,080 --> 02:28:43,920
just wanted to touch base to what's next

1218
02:28:43,920 --> 02:28:47,120
a little bit. Um, one of the uh, one

1219
02:28:47,120 --> 02:28:48,960
thing one area that we know is a is a

1220
02:28:48,960 --> 02:28:51,280
potential gap uh, is just the transition

1221
02:28:51,280 --> 02:28:53,680
is so big now because we lost a stepping

1222
02:28:53,680 --> 02:28:56,640
stone uh, of treasure which again I'm in

1223
02:28:56,640 --> 02:28:58,479
full support of where we're at today.

1224
02:28:58,479 --> 02:29:00,720
But uh, we know that our freshman and

1225
02:29:00,720 --> 02:29:02,319
their transition. It's a it's a school

1226
02:29:02,319 --> 02:29:03,840
community council goal for ours next

1227
02:29:03,840 --> 02:29:05,280
year. We just want to set them up for

1228
02:29:05,280 --> 02:29:07,280
success. One thing that our staff's in

1229
02:29:07,280 --> 02:29:09,200
support of and we have a team plotting

1230
02:29:09,200 --> 02:29:11,200
what could be is a freshman first day

1231
02:29:11,200 --> 02:29:12,479
which would mean that the first day of

1232
02:29:12,479 --> 02:29:13,760
school would be for freshmen and

1233
02:29:13,760 --> 02:29:15,439
newcomers only at the high school. Not

1234
02:29:15,439 --> 02:29:17,200
for all schools but Park City High

1235
02:29:17,200 --> 02:29:18,479
School's first day. It wouldn't be a new

1236
02:29:18,479 --> 02:29:20,640
first day. Um I do believe it would

1237
02:29:20,640 --> 02:29:22,880
require a slight adjustment uh from you

1238
02:29:22,880 --> 02:29:25,200
all to allow us to not to basically

1239
02:29:25,200 --> 02:29:27,600
excuse sophomores seniors uh that are

1240
02:29:27,600 --> 02:29:30,080
not new. That day would be uh a

1241
02:29:30,080 --> 02:29:31,920
combination of culture building. think

1242
02:29:31,920 --> 02:29:34,479
of it conference style sessions on

1243
02:29:34,479 --> 02:29:37,840
supports on student success behaviors on

1244
02:29:37,840 --> 02:29:40,720
rules and really to ensure that like

1245
02:29:40,720 --> 02:29:43,040
they know what they're doing. Um there's

1246
02:29:43,040 --> 02:29:44,960
a lot of other schools that do this. Our

1247
02:29:44,960 --> 02:29:47,120
friends at Wasatch uh have done it for

1248
02:29:47,120 --> 02:29:49,520
quite some time with great success and

1249
02:29:49,520 --> 02:29:51,840
um our staff's in support of saying hey

1250
02:29:51,840 --> 02:29:53,760
let's give the freshman the time they

1251
02:29:53,760 --> 02:29:55,120
deserve. the second half of the day is

1252
02:29:55,120 --> 02:29:56,720
going through the schedule and getting

1253
02:29:56,720 --> 02:30:00,560
comfortable in the halls without um

1254
02:30:00,560 --> 02:30:03,200
1,200 other students and like the

1255
02:30:03,200 --> 02:30:05,359
pressure of like holy cow that's that

1256
02:30:05,359 --> 02:30:06,960
was a senior you know that just walked

1257
02:30:06,960 --> 02:30:09,040
by me because they're substantially

1258
02:30:09,040 --> 02:30:10,640
different in size especially at the

1259
02:30:10,640 --> 02:30:13,439
beginning. So, um we would like to move

1260
02:30:13,439 --> 02:30:14,720
forward with that with the board's

1261
02:30:14,720 --> 02:30:17,520
blessing. Uh and um uh

1262
02:30:17,520 --> 02:30:20,160
>> that'll be a decision item to adjust uh

1263
02:30:20,160 --> 02:30:23,040
the calendar later this evening.

1264
02:30:23,040 --> 02:30:25,520
>> And then um uh you know our PLC journey

1265
02:30:25,520 --> 02:30:27,840
continues. We we spoke to what we're

1266
02:30:27,840 --> 02:30:30,560
doing to improve data and really PLC's

1267
02:30:30,560 --> 02:30:32,720
and PCBL in my opinion go together and

1268
02:30:32,720 --> 02:30:33,760
we're talking about personalized

1269
02:30:33,760 --> 02:30:35,200
competency based learning and we believe

1270
02:30:35,200 --> 02:30:37,439
that PLC's are the avenue which that

1271
02:30:37,439 --> 02:30:39,600
happens because we do believe what

1272
02:30:39,600 --> 02:30:41,359
superintendent says in our tagline like

1273
02:30:41,359 --> 02:30:42,800
learning is personal on every path is

1274
02:30:42,800 --> 02:30:44,240
possible and that journey is going to

1275
02:30:44,240 --> 02:30:46,080
happen through PLC's at RCIS you put

1276
02:30:46,080 --> 02:30:47,600
staff together and you let them be the

1277
02:30:47,600 --> 02:30:49,120
professionals using data to drive

1278
02:30:49,120 --> 02:30:51,120
decisions is great and you can throw all

1279
02:30:51,120 --> 02:30:52,479
the rest out because if we do not

1280
02:30:52,479 --> 02:30:54,880
prioritize relationships first and

1281
02:30:54,880 --> 02:30:56,560
foremost in everything we do. And again,

1282
02:30:56,560 --> 02:30:57,920
that's why I want to honor Ashley and

1283
02:30:57,920 --> 02:30:59,359
Dave because they did that and they do

1284
02:30:59,359 --> 02:31:01,840
that. Um, all the rest of the stuff

1285
02:31:01,840 --> 02:31:03,359
won't work. So, that's what we're going

1286
02:31:03,359 --> 02:31:05,840
to continue to do. And now get to talk

1287
02:31:05,840 --> 02:31:08,080
about sister city

1288
02:31:08,080 --> 02:31:09,359
get for a bit longer.

1289
02:31:09,359 --> 02:31:14,230
>> We're all in the relationship.

1290
02:31:14,240 --> 02:31:18,160
» Okay. Go on to city. Uh, we talked a lot

1291
02:31:18,160 --> 02:31:20,720
about achievement and it's amazing. How

1292
02:31:20,720 --> 02:31:24,720
are we doing with demographic gaps? So,

1293
02:31:24,720 --> 02:31:27,840
um there is an achievement gap period.

1294
02:31:27,840 --> 02:31:31,920
Uh one of my goals is is both obviously

1295
02:31:31,920 --> 02:31:33,920
you want to close the gap, don't get me

1296
02:31:33,920 --> 02:31:36,000
wrong, but really we just as much as I

1297
02:31:36,000 --> 02:31:37,359
want to close the gap, I want to tilt

1298
02:31:37,359 --> 02:31:39,840
the gap. I want everyone to keep moving

1299
02:31:39,840 --> 02:31:41,520
up. And what we what we're doing is

1300
02:31:41,520 --> 02:31:43,680
we're tilting the gap on programs like

1301
02:31:43,680 --> 02:31:46,319
Dream Big, etc. But is this gap getting

1302
02:31:46,319 --> 02:31:48,800
reduced? Um and I'm thrilled if we can

1303
02:31:48,800 --> 02:31:50,720
bring this gap up as long as this top

1304
02:31:50,720 --> 02:31:52,800
doesn't go down, right? And that's why

1305
02:31:52,800 --> 02:31:54,319
part of our focus is like let's just

1306
02:31:54,319 --> 02:31:56,479
shift it and if everyone starts moving

1307
02:31:56,479 --> 02:31:58,479
that direction we're keeping everyone at

1308
02:31:58,479 --> 02:32:00,960
their full potential. Um our we exited

1309
02:32:00,960 --> 02:32:03,040
several students in WEDA which is a

1310
02:32:03,040 --> 02:32:05,120
celebration but yet we want to do

1311
02:32:05,120 --> 02:32:07,120
several more. Um so we had two exits.

1312
02:32:07,120 --> 02:32:08,319
We've had years where we've had no

1313
02:32:08,319 --> 02:32:09,760
exits. We've had years where we've had

1314
02:32:09,760 --> 02:32:11,760
three or four exits. When they lowered

1315
02:32:11,760 --> 02:32:13,439
the precedent a couple years ago, every

1316
02:32:13,439 --> 02:32:14,960
school had a ton of exits. Right. That

1317
02:32:14,960 --> 02:32:16,880
was a good thing. So we had two exits in

1318
02:32:16,880 --> 02:32:19,200
WEDA. um which we're very happy that

1319
02:32:19,200 --> 02:32:21,439
students exited and we're we have not

1320
02:32:21,439 --> 02:32:25,600
gotten uh the growth scores. Um our ACT

1321
02:32:25,600 --> 02:32:28,080
scores are lower uh with our Latino

1322
02:32:28,080 --> 02:32:29,280
population than they are with our

1323
02:32:29,280 --> 02:32:31,600
Caucasian population. Um but they're

1324
02:32:31,600 --> 02:32:33,200
climbing.

1325
02:32:33,200 --> 02:32:35,040
So I think we're making progress, but

1326
02:32:35,040 --> 02:32:36,560
it's not there yet, Nick. It's not there

1327
02:32:36,560 --> 02:32:38,880
yet.

1328
02:32:38,880 --> 02:32:41,200
>> We do have a national merit finalist.

1329
02:32:41,200 --> 02:32:41,680
>> Yeah.

1330
02:32:41,680 --> 02:32:46,319
>> Don't speak to that student. which

1331
02:32:46,319 --> 02:32:47,359
national merit finalist

1332
02:32:47,359 --> 02:32:48,640
>> finalist.

1333
02:32:48,640 --> 02:32:51,200
>> Yeah, we've got a Oh, Parker K.

1334
02:32:51,200 --> 02:32:52,080
>> Yeah,

1335
02:32:52,080 --> 02:32:54,960
>> he's incredible, man. Parker is

1336
02:32:54,960 --> 02:32:57,359
fantastic. He's going to be honored at

1337
02:32:57,359 --> 02:32:59,840
the at our community scholarship awards.

1338
02:32:59,840 --> 02:33:01,760
He's a national merit scholarship. You

1339
02:33:01,760 --> 02:33:04,080
know, one of our kids that has a 4.5

1340
02:33:04,080 --> 02:33:07,439
GPA. Um just an impressive young man.

1341
02:33:07,439 --> 02:33:09,040
National merit finalists don't happen

1342
02:33:09,040 --> 02:33:11,840
very often. Um so we're we're excited.

1343
02:33:11,840 --> 02:33:13,359
We actually have another one that was

1344
02:33:13,359 --> 02:33:16,960
just announced as well. So, um, exciting

1345
02:33:16,960 --> 02:33:18,640
awards that that are available to some

1346
02:33:18,640 --> 02:33:20,800
of our students. These are primarily

1347
02:33:20,800 --> 02:33:24,160
based on the SAT um that some students

1348
02:33:24,160 --> 02:33:26,000
opted to take in their junior year along

1349
02:33:26,000 --> 02:33:30,790
with other qualifying factors.

1350
02:33:30,800 --> 02:33:36,469
All right.

1351
02:33:36,479 --> 02:33:39,680
» Um, different presentation, same person.

1352
02:33:39,680 --> 02:33:41,600
Uh, I'd like to introduce I do have a

1353
02:33:41,600 --> 02:33:44,160
partner on this one, actually.

1354
02:33:44,160 --> 02:33:44,720
>> Nailed it.

1355
02:33:44,720 --> 02:33:47,120
Uh, she is with this one of

1356
02:33:47,120 --> 02:33:48,880
the representatives from the sister city

1357
02:33:48,880 --> 02:33:51,280
association. Uh, Park City Sister City

1358
02:33:51,280 --> 02:33:52,160
Association. We're going to kind of

1359
02:33:52,160 --> 02:33:54,000
co-present and share a little bit about

1360
02:33:54,000 --> 02:33:58,080
the two programs that they run and um my

1361
02:33:58,080 --> 02:34:00,319
idea of of formalizing something that's

1362
02:34:00,319 --> 02:34:03,200
maybe been operating in a slight gray

1363
02:34:03,200 --> 02:34:06,319
area for a really really long time. So,

1364
02:34:06,319 --> 02:34:07,840
I'll let Ash speak to the history and

1365
02:34:07,840 --> 02:34:09,040
then I'll talk a little bit about the

1366
02:34:09,040 --> 02:34:09,439
program.

1367
02:34:09,439 --> 02:34:10,560
>> Thank you. And thank you guys so much

1368
02:34:10,560 --> 02:34:12,080
for having me. Also, Gary, the

1369
02:34:12,080 --> 02:34:13,359
presentation of the high school made me

1370
02:34:13,359 --> 02:34:15,200
like very excited. I hope Caleb's the

1371
02:34:15,200 --> 02:34:16,720
principal and my son starts there and

1372
02:34:16,720 --> 02:34:17,840
he's four.

1373
02:34:17,840 --> 02:34:20,560
>> So, just beware. I'm like looking for

1374
02:34:20,560 --> 02:34:22,800
that trajectory. Um, a lot to be proud

1375
02:34:22,800 --> 02:34:24,000
of. So, thank you guys so much for

1376
02:34:24,000 --> 02:34:25,359
having me. Like Caleb said, my name is

1377
02:34:25,359 --> 02:34:27,680
Ashley Bianu. Uh, for any frankones in

1378
02:34:27,680 --> 02:34:28,960
the audience, that literally means

1379
02:34:28,960 --> 02:34:31,040
welcome in French. So it's very appropo

1380
02:34:31,040 --> 02:34:33,280
that I'm here on behalf of the sister

1381
02:34:33,280 --> 02:34:35,439
city relationship with Corvelavel

1382
02:34:35,439 --> 02:34:38,800
France. So Park City and Porscheel have

1383
02:34:38,800 --> 02:34:42,080
been sister cities since 1984

1384
02:34:42,080 --> 02:34:45,359
and we are uniquely each other's sole

1385
02:34:45,359 --> 02:34:48,240
sister cities. So it is a very

1386
02:34:48,240 --> 02:34:50,319
longstanding and very indepth

1387
02:34:50,319 --> 02:34:53,280
relationship rooted in two really

1388
02:34:53,280 --> 02:34:57,280
amazing ski communities. Um and the

1389
02:34:57,280 --> 02:34:59,600
community that was started in the 80s,

1390
02:34:59,600 --> 02:35:01,680
that kind of resolution still holds true

1391
02:35:01,680 --> 02:35:05,280
today. Two small places who love what we

1392
02:35:05,280 --> 02:35:11,600
do where we live and everything that can bring. And in so doing, we have

1393
02:35:11,600 --> 02:35:13,920
actually created two youth programs

1394
02:35:13,920 --> 02:35:16,640
specifically. So, we do things through

1395
02:35:16,640 --> 02:35:18,720
the city. We do things uh for

1396
02:35:18,720 --> 02:35:20,800
citizenships with Park Heights, but I'm

1397
02:35:20,800 --> 02:35:22,000
going to obviously talk about

1398
02:35:22,000 --> 02:35:23,200
specifically what we're doing with our

1399
02:35:23,200 --> 02:35:25,040
youth here and our high school students.

1400
02:35:25,040 --> 02:35:26,640
So, the first is what we call a winter

1401
02:35:26,640 --> 02:35:29,040
summer exchange. This takes place over

1402
02:35:29,040 --> 02:35:32,000
the February break. And we actually

1403
02:35:32,000 --> 02:35:34,720
started this in 1989, so shortly after

1404
02:35:34,720 --> 02:35:37,200
the association was founded. During this

1405
02:35:37,200 --> 02:35:39,600
trip, we bring anywhere between a dozen

1406
02:35:39,600 --> 02:35:42,720
and two dozen high school students to

1407
02:35:42,720 --> 02:35:45,760
Corvel for 10 days during their February

1408
02:35:45,760 --> 02:35:48,800
trip. They are actually hosted by French

1409
02:35:48,800 --> 02:35:51,120
families in Cororche and then their

1410
02:35:51,120 --> 02:35:52,800
French counterpart comes out here to

1411
02:35:52,800 --> 02:35:55,520
Park City in July. We run this usually

1412
02:35:55,520 --> 02:35:57,680
every other year. This year is a little

1413
02:35:57,680 --> 02:35:59,760
bit unique. We're running two backtoback

1414
02:35:59,760 --> 02:36:01,600
because just as we are gearing up to

1415
02:36:01,600 --> 02:36:04,240
host the Olympics in 34, Coravevel is

1416
02:36:04,240 --> 02:36:07,040
hosting them in 30. Um, so we don't want

1417
02:36:07,040 --> 02:36:11,600
to above that too closely. Um, now it

1418
02:36:11,600 --> 02:36:14,080
used to be, so I'm I'm here obviously

1419
02:36:14,080 --> 02:36:16,160
not as a founding member, well maybe not

1420
02:36:16,160 --> 02:36:18,800
obviously um not as a founding member of

1421
02:36:18,800 --> 02:36:21,120
the sister city relationship, but as a

1422
02:36:21,120 --> 02:36:23,359
board member here. So our relationship

1423
02:36:23,359 --> 02:36:27,280
was originally um run by um a PCHS

1424
02:36:27,280 --> 02:36:31,680
teacher, French, um Sue Galucha, and she

1425
02:36:31,680 --> 02:36:33,280
just ran the whole show, including the

1426
02:36:33,280 --> 02:36:35,439
student trips, which was amazing. our

1427
02:36:35,439 --> 02:36:37,359
current president, Tina Quail, who

1428
02:36:37,359 --> 02:36:39,200
unfortunately is traveling right now, so

1429
02:36:39,200 --> 02:36:41,120
could not be here. She took over the

1430
02:36:41,120 --> 02:36:43,680
nonprofit in 2009, although I do want to

1431
02:36:43,680 --> 02:36:45,200
give her a shout out. She was also on

1432
02:36:45,200 --> 02:36:47,120
the original signing documents, which is

1433
02:36:47,120 --> 02:36:48,720
pretty rad. And then she took a little

1434
02:36:48,720 --> 02:36:51,040
step back to raise her own family. Um,

1435
02:36:51,040 --> 02:36:53,840
so she still runs the ship, is uh our

1436
02:36:53,840 --> 02:36:56,240
leader here, and has been in Park City

1437
02:36:56,240 --> 02:36:58,560
since the 70s. And I feel like it's just

1438
02:36:58,560 --> 02:37:00,080
quintessentially Park City. Tina, if

1439
02:37:00,080 --> 02:37:03,040
you're watching, hello. Um and then we

1440
02:37:03,040 --> 02:37:04,800
kind of evolved our student programs.

1441
02:37:04,800 --> 02:37:07,600
Winter summer um was so successful and

1442
02:37:07,600 --> 02:37:09,680
we had so many students run through that

1443
02:37:09,680 --> 02:37:12,399
program that we then created sort of a

1444
02:37:12,399 --> 02:37:14,160
secondary program which we call our

1445
02:37:14,160 --> 02:37:16,800
academic exchange. I actually run that

1446
02:37:16,800 --> 02:37:18,720
program. That's essentially our study

1447
02:37:18,720 --> 02:37:21,280
abroad. So instead of sending a large

1448
02:37:21,280 --> 02:37:23,200
group of Park City High School students

1449
02:37:23,200 --> 02:37:25,439
for a short period of time, we send a

1450
02:37:25,439 --> 02:37:28,000
small group anywhere from one to five

1451
02:37:28,000 --> 02:37:30,880
juniors or seniors to Corvel for up to

1452
02:37:30,880 --> 02:37:32,880
three months. So we try to hit just

1453
02:37:32,880 --> 02:37:35,280
under that three-month cap to not have

1454
02:37:35,280 --> 02:37:38,800
to worry about visa complexities. Um and

1455
02:37:38,800 --> 02:37:40,880
similarly, it is direct reciprocity

1456
02:37:40,880 --> 02:37:43,600
report. So they are embedded in a host

1457
02:37:43,600 --> 02:37:46,560
family there. Um, and they go to French

1458
02:37:46,560 --> 02:37:49,040
high school every day, which I taught

1459
02:37:49,040 --> 02:37:50,479
English in a French high school for a

1460
02:37:50,479 --> 02:37:51,840
year. I can tell you it is wildly

1461
02:37:51,840 --> 02:37:53,840
different than high school in America.

1462
02:37:53,840 --> 02:37:55,840
Um, and that's our first year doing that

1463
02:37:55,840 --> 02:37:58,800
started in 2012. And we have run that

1464
02:37:58,800 --> 02:38:00,960
every year since then with a handful of

1465
02:38:00,960 --> 02:38:03,120
students. So, our students go over in

1466
02:38:03,120 --> 02:38:05,120
the start of the calendar year and we

1467
02:38:05,120 --> 02:38:07,200
first welcome the French students at the

1468
02:38:07,200 --> 02:38:10,240
start of this academic school year. So,

1469
02:38:10,240 --> 02:38:11,680
I'm going to kick it back to Caleb to

1470
02:38:11,680 --> 02:38:14,560
bring a little light to this.

1471
02:38:14,560 --> 02:38:16,479
for you gears. I mean, this has been

1472
02:38:16,479 --> 02:38:18,319
happening a long time and you can see

1473
02:38:18,319 --> 02:38:20,000
these are big groups of students and

1474
02:38:20,000 --> 02:38:21,680
what they report back is just the

1475
02:38:21,680 --> 02:38:23,840
powerful cultural experience of being a

1476
02:38:23,840 --> 02:38:25,120
part of it. Um, you can keep going,

1477
02:38:25,120 --> 02:38:26,880
Drew. There's not a ton of special

1478
02:38:26,880 --> 02:38:30,479
photos that happens both here, uh, one thing that makes it unique, right?

1479
02:38:30,479 --> 02:38:31,840
Students are coming here. We're not just

1480
02:38:31,840 --> 02:38:33,200
going there. So, there's a partnership

1481
02:38:33,200 --> 02:38:34,960
the whole way. So, you can see up on

1482
02:38:34,960 --> 02:38:37,359
Main Street, uh, we've got some students

1483
02:38:37,359 --> 02:38:38,720
here at Park City as well. Keep going,

1484
02:38:38,720 --> 02:38:42,319
Drew. And Utah Olympic Park as well. So

1485
02:38:42,319 --> 02:38:45,040
it's not just again in France and of

1486
02:38:45,040 --> 02:38:48,000
course you didn't keep jumping. Um and

1487
02:38:48,000 --> 02:38:49,359
one of the one of the biggest fans of

1488
02:38:49,359 --> 02:38:52,479
this uh was actually Bob O' Conor. He

1489
02:38:52,479 --> 02:38:55,680
loved this program and would definitely

1490
02:38:55,680 --> 02:38:57,520
uh I think he likes skiing of course

1491
02:38:57,520 --> 02:39:00,479
quite a bit. So so uh he he was there uh

1492
02:39:00,479 --> 02:39:02,479
from time to time. That's a two-minute

1493
02:39:02,479 --> 02:39:07,840
video that a student made in 2017. Um

1494
02:39:07,840 --> 02:39:09,920
>> do you want to click on it? and it kind

1495
02:39:09,920 --> 02:39:11,760
of captures a little bit more of what

1496
02:39:11,760 --> 02:39:13,439
this is the winter summer trip

1497
02:39:13,439 --> 02:39:15,600
highlights of that trip. the wall open

1498
02:39:15,600 --> 02:39:16,399
for you.

1499
02:39:16,399 --> 02:39:22,309
>> Just give me a second.

1500
02:39:22,319 --> 02:39:27,990
» Have to give me a second.

1501
02:39:28,000 --> 02:39:39,349
» There it is.

1502
02:39:39,359 --> 02:39:56,790
I'm new here.

1503
02:39:56,800 --> 02:40:00,080
there. It's just a soundtrack that is a

1504
02:40:00,080 --> 02:40:03,990
student produced.

1505
02:40:04,000 --> 02:40:06,399
We were staying on

1506
02:40:06,399 --> 02:40:10,550
to get away from your

1507
02:40:10,560 --> 02:40:12,960
shot right now. I don't think we could

1508
02:40:12,960 --> 02:40:16,240
work this out.

1509
02:40:16,240 --> 02:40:19,600
I don't know. I thought how could I let

1510
02:40:19,600 --> 02:40:42,389
you by yourself

1511
02:40:42,399 --> 02:40:45,830
Let's

1512
02:40:45,840 --> 02:40:51,590
show them

1513
02:40:51,600 --> 02:40:54,790
how

1514
02:40:54,800 --> 02:41:10,550
ocean

1515
02:41:10,560 --> 02:41:15,110
has

1516
02:41:15,120 --> 02:41:26,550
go down together.

1517
02:41:26,560 --> 02:41:36,790
Okay.

1518
02:41:36,800 --> 02:42:02,150
shirt.

1519
02:42:02,160 --> 02:42:11,110
time.

1520
02:42:11,120 --> 02:42:13,040
» I did verify that that was not a student

1521
02:42:13,040 --> 02:42:16,160
of ours on the Paris sale. It was just

1522
02:42:16,160 --> 02:42:17,439
they just happened to catch it and think

1523
02:42:17,439 --> 02:42:20,000
it was worth filming so Randy could be a

1524
02:42:20,000 --> 02:42:22,560
little bit more ease

1525
02:42:22,560 --> 02:42:24,880
but that was produced in 2017 and you

1526
02:42:24,880 --> 02:42:27,120
can just see it's a positive it's a

1527
02:42:27,120 --> 02:42:28,720
positive relationship. You can jump back

1528
02:42:28,720 --> 02:42:30,399
to the slideshow. We want to kind of

1529
02:42:30,399 --> 02:42:33,280
talk about what makes it special and why

1530
02:42:33,280 --> 02:42:36,399
uh I think that considering formalizing

1531
02:42:36,399 --> 02:42:39,680
this uh instead of operating in a in a a

1532
02:42:39,680 --> 02:42:41,120
gray space that we're in right now I

1533
02:42:41,120 --> 02:42:42,880
think is in the best interest of our

1534
02:42:42,880 --> 02:42:45,200
students. Um, one thing about this that

1535
02:42:45,200 --> 02:42:46,399
makes it special is it's actually

1536
02:42:46,399 --> 02:42:49,040
incredibly affordable because comparable

1537
02:42:49,040 --> 02:42:51,840
programs for a for a trip are in the $5

1538
02:42:51,840 --> 02:42:54,479
to $8,000 range run by for-profit

1539
02:42:54,479 --> 02:42:56,399
companies. But for our students, it is

1540
02:42:56,399 --> 02:42:58,560
the cost of airfare and we've been able

1541
02:42:58,560 --> 02:43:01,760
to subsidize that or cover that in uh

1542
02:43:01,760 --> 02:43:04,319
students in need situation. Um, and

1543
02:43:04,319 --> 02:43:06,560
that's the only cost other than if they

1544
02:43:06,560 --> 02:43:08,000
want to have some spending money because

1545
02:43:08,000 --> 02:43:11,439
the host families will take on the rest

1546
02:43:11,439 --> 02:43:13,920
of of the expense of hosting. There's no

1547
02:43:13,920 --> 02:43:17,439
hotel costs. Um, so it's minimal despite

1548
02:43:17,439 --> 02:43:20,160
uh current oil costs. That's that's the

1549
02:43:20,160 --> 02:43:22,800
expense for the trip. And then if you go

1550
02:43:22,800 --> 02:43:26,080
on the academic exchange, uh the the

1551
02:43:26,080 --> 02:43:28,080
organization has a paid insurance that's

1552
02:43:28,080 --> 02:43:30,160
$150 a day. It's a student insurance

1553
02:43:30,160 --> 02:43:32,640
that just provides extra protection. So,

1554
02:43:32,640 --> 02:43:34,080
you know, we're not talking about

1555
02:43:34,080 --> 02:43:36,000
substantially more on that end. Uh

1556
02:43:36,000 --> 02:43:37,680
there's been situations in which we've

1557
02:43:37,680 --> 02:43:39,200
had students go in the past, has been

1558
02:43:39,200 --> 02:43:40,640
described to me, I wasn't part of this

1559
02:43:40,640 --> 02:43:42,240
specifically, where we've had to

1560
02:43:42,240 --> 02:43:44,160
identify different host families because

1561
02:43:44,160 --> 02:43:45,840
maybe a family didn't feel comfortable

1562
02:43:45,840 --> 02:43:49,840
hosting a student and and sharing the fact that French students come back

1563
02:43:49,840 --> 02:43:51,840
um for a variety of reasons and we're

1564
02:43:51,840 --> 02:43:53,359
able to accommodate those types of

1565
02:43:53,359 --> 02:43:54,720
things. So, one thing that makes it

1566
02:43:54,720 --> 02:43:56,640
special is simply that it is so much

1567
02:43:56,640 --> 02:43:58,399
more cost-effective. An academic

1568
02:43:58,399 --> 02:44:00,479
exchange program with these for-profit

1569
02:44:00,479 --> 02:44:02,640
and even nonprofit uh institutions that

1570
02:44:02,640 --> 02:44:04,479
do this that are comparable oftentimes

1571
02:44:04,479 --> 02:44:07,120
run in the 20 to $30,000 for that type

1572
02:44:07,120 --> 02:44:09,520
of experience. And again, ours is uh

1573
02:44:09,520 --> 02:44:10,880
this program that they offer is

1574
02:44:10,880 --> 02:44:13,279
typically in the thousandish dollar

1575
02:44:13,279 --> 02:44:16,000
range because that's the airfare. Um so

1576
02:44:16,000 --> 02:44:17,120
that's something that really makes it

1577
02:44:17,120 --> 02:44:17,760
special.

1578
02:44:17,760 --> 02:44:20,160
>> Yeah, thank you. Um, so the partnership

1579
02:44:20,160 --> 02:44:21,840
aspect of course, you know, this is

1580
02:44:21,840 --> 02:44:24,319
incredibly long-standing and so this is

1581
02:44:24,319 --> 02:44:26,720
something that when you go to Porsche,

1582
02:44:26,720 --> 02:44:28,560
if you tell them I'm from Park City,

1583
02:44:28,560 --> 02:44:30,560
they know exactly where that is and they

1584
02:44:30,560 --> 02:44:34,160
know exactly who we are. So we are able

1585
02:44:34,160 --> 02:44:37,760
to give that experience to students that

1586
02:44:37,760 --> 02:44:39,680
they wouldn't otherwise get in just a

1587
02:44:39,680 --> 02:44:42,000
generic study abroad program. They're

1588
02:44:42,000 --> 02:44:44,160
it's very white glove. They're going um

1589
02:44:44,160 --> 02:44:46,720
they're doing things that are just a

1590
02:44:46,720 --> 02:44:49,439
little bit more special. Um I'll also

1591
02:44:49,439 --> 02:44:51,359
say and a plug out to anybody who does

1592
02:44:51,359 --> 02:44:54,399
love to ski or not. Um we brought 12

1593
02:44:54,399 --> 02:44:57,439
citizens to to park city citizens this

1594
02:44:57,439 --> 02:44:59,279
year. It was wildly successful. We're

1595
02:44:59,279 --> 02:45:01,120
planning another trip next year. They

1596
02:45:01,120 --> 02:45:02,960
roll out the red carpet for us anytime

1597
02:45:02,960 --> 02:45:05,200
we come in whatever capacity. So we're

1598
02:45:05,200 --> 02:45:06,880
talking doing first tracks in the

1599
02:45:06,880 --> 02:45:09,120
largest ski resort in Europe, dinners

1600
02:45:09,120 --> 02:45:11,359
with the mayor, which we, you know, also

1601
02:45:11,359 --> 02:45:14,000
do the same here. Um we are backed by

1602
02:45:14,000 --> 02:45:16,479
the city. Um we are a 501c3 but we are

1603
02:45:16,479 --> 02:45:19,120
funded by the city. Um and because of

1604
02:45:19,120 --> 02:45:22,240
that true deeprooted partnership it

1605
02:45:22,240 --> 02:45:24,640
gives our students an experience that is

1606
02:45:24,640 --> 02:45:26,720
far beyond what they're getting from an

1607
02:45:26,720 --> 02:45:29,520
offtheshelf program like Caleb

1608
02:45:29,520 --> 02:45:32,000
mentioned. Um obviously the immersion

1609
02:45:32,000 --> 02:45:34,479
right particularly for academic where

1610
02:45:34,479 --> 02:45:36,800
they are there for three months and they

1611
02:45:36,800 --> 02:45:40,720
are in school. they are truly living the

1612
02:45:40,720 --> 02:45:43,920
life of a French teenager. It is

1613
02:45:43,920 --> 02:45:46,640
unparalleled what they get to

1614
02:45:46,640 --> 02:45:49,120
experience. Um and that can be from an

1615
02:45:49,120 --> 02:45:51,040
extracurricular perspective. We try to

1616
02:45:51,040 --> 02:45:52,960
facilitate if there are specific things

1617
02:45:52,960 --> 02:45:55,040
that they are interested in outside of

1618
02:45:55,040 --> 02:45:57,439
school and that's taking that exists in

1619
02:45:57,439 --> 02:45:59,840
France and is taking place during the

1620
02:45:59,840 --> 02:46:02,240
time they're there. We try to facilitate

1621
02:46:02,240 --> 02:46:03,840
that. Similarly, and thank you to the

1622
02:46:03,840 --> 02:46:05,840
high school who's done a great job doing

1623
02:46:05,840 --> 02:46:07,439
the same for the French students that

1624
02:46:07,439 --> 02:46:09,359
come here. So, they really get to

1625
02:46:09,359 --> 02:46:12,160
experience what it's like to live in

1626
02:46:12,160 --> 02:46:15,439
France, not just visit France, which are

1627
02:46:15,439 --> 02:46:17,680
two intrinsically different things. And

1628
02:46:17,680 --> 02:46:19,359
then, of course, that cultural aspect.

1629
02:46:19,359 --> 02:46:21,359
Um, if any anybody been to France

1630
02:46:21,359 --> 02:46:24,000
before. Okay. All right. So, good

1631
02:46:24,000 --> 02:46:25,680
opportunity then for anybody who this

1632
02:46:25,680 --> 02:46:27,520
may be interested in citizenship. I

1633
02:46:27,520 --> 02:46:29,760
lived there for almost a decade. It

1634
02:46:29,760 --> 02:46:32,720
truly changed who I was as a person.

1635
02:46:32,720 --> 02:46:34,479
Mainly, I came home and my mom said,

1636
02:46:34,479 --> 02:46:36,720
"Why don't you smile as much?" I grew up

1637
02:46:36,720 --> 02:46:38,479
in the deep south and so we tend to

1638
02:46:38,479 --> 02:46:40,240
smile a lot there and I moved to France

1639
02:46:40,240 --> 02:46:41,920
when I was 21. So, it was a very

1640
02:46:41,920 --> 02:46:45,120
formative portion of my early adulthood.

1641
02:46:45,120 --> 02:46:48,560
Um, but jokes aside, it is very

1642
02:46:48,560 --> 02:46:50,560
different and it gives our students the

1643
02:46:50,560 --> 02:46:53,120
opportunity to open their eyes and see

1644
02:46:53,120 --> 02:46:55,279
something that is wildly outside of

1645
02:46:55,279 --> 02:46:57,520
their comfort zone, but in a way that

1646
02:46:57,520 --> 02:47:00,160
pushes the boundaries in a safe fashion

1647
02:47:00,160 --> 02:47:02,720
and an exciting one. Um, and then I

1648
02:47:02,720 --> 02:47:04,880
actually we have a parent here who has

1649
02:47:04,880 --> 02:47:06,479
um been a part of our winter summer who

1650
02:47:06,479 --> 02:47:08,160
has had two of her daughters participate

1651
02:47:08,160 --> 02:47:09,840
in winter summer. We were chatting

1652
02:47:09,840 --> 02:47:11,439
before this, so I'm going to use some of

1653
02:47:11,439 --> 02:47:13,120
the things we chatted about. It's also

1654
02:47:13,120 --> 02:47:14,800
an amazing experience for our host

1655
02:47:14,800 --> 02:47:16,720
families here. So, they might never be

1656
02:47:16,720 --> 02:47:19,120
stepping foot into France, but having a

1657
02:47:19,120 --> 02:47:22,080
French student come for 10 days or three

1658
02:47:22,080 --> 02:47:24,160
months and them learning from that

1659
02:47:24,160 --> 02:47:26,560
experience, siblings learning from that,

1660
02:47:26,560 --> 02:47:28,319
it's truly something that you can just

1661
02:47:28,319 --> 02:47:32,240
not get inside the classroom walls.

1662
02:47:32,240 --> 02:47:34,080
No, obviously disrespect to the

1663
02:47:34,080 --> 02:47:35,279
classroom walls. And I'm going to kick

1664
02:47:35,279 --> 02:47:37,520
it to you for the education

1665
02:47:37,520 --> 02:47:39,359
>> as a French minor. Guess where we go.

1666
02:47:39,359 --> 02:47:42,240
This is this is education experiences

1667
02:47:42,240 --> 02:47:43,600
are are some of the best learning

1668
02:47:43,600 --> 02:47:45,040
opportunities and that's why I'm a fan

1669
02:47:45,040 --> 02:47:46,960
of this with kids that are able to go

1670
02:47:46,960 --> 02:47:48,319
and that were able to open the door and

1671
02:47:48,319 --> 02:47:49,600
have the partnership. I'm grateful for

1672
02:47:49,600 --> 02:47:52,399
it. Uh we realized in the process that

1673
02:47:52,399 --> 02:47:55,359
we we crossed some wires unintentionally

1674
02:47:55,359 --> 02:47:57,760
of like we can't market this if it's not

1675
02:47:57,760 --> 02:48:00,319
our trip. But we want to let kids know

1676
02:48:00,319 --> 02:48:02,160
and be dealing with that. And that's why

1677
02:48:02,160 --> 02:48:04,080
we felt it was time to Hey, the last

1678
02:48:04,080 --> 02:48:05,680
time this presentation of any kind

1679
02:48:05,680 --> 02:48:06,880
happened, we believe was in

1680
02:48:06,880 --> 02:48:10,240
approximately 2009. Um, so it was time

1681
02:48:10,240 --> 02:48:13,520
to come back, share what it is with you,

1682
02:48:13,520 --> 02:48:15,680
and and look at steps to potentially

1683
02:48:15,680 --> 02:48:16,880
formalize because we think it's great

1684
02:48:16,880 --> 02:48:18,160
education, a great opportunity for some

1685
02:48:18,160 --> 02:48:20,399
of our students. Um, so we do have a

1686
02:48:20,399 --> 02:48:22,800
couple proposals uh to be considered. Go

1687
02:48:22,800 --> 02:48:24,720
to the next slide. Um, do we want to

1688
02:48:24,720 --> 02:48:28,399
formal formalize this partnership and be able to own it a little bit more

1689
02:48:28,399 --> 02:48:30,560
as as a district program, meaning that

1690
02:48:30,560 --> 02:48:32,560
we would we would be able to market it.

1691
02:48:32,560 --> 02:48:34,640
Um, it would it would likely have some

1692
02:48:34,640 --> 02:48:37,840
risk insurance uh ramifications. We'd go

1693
02:48:37,840 --> 02:48:39,040
through the trip process and we'd be

1694
02:48:39,040 --> 02:48:40,479
able to say, "Hey, it's something that

1695
02:48:40,479 --> 02:48:42,240
we are behind and sponsor. We'd make

1696
02:48:42,240 --> 02:48:43,840
sure we had a chaperone or two on the

1697
02:48:43,840 --> 02:48:45,760
trips, not the academic exchange, but

1698
02:48:45,760 --> 02:48:47,840
the winter summer trip. We make sure we

1699
02:48:47,840 --> 02:48:49,680
it was a regularly chaperone trip."

1700
02:48:49,680 --> 02:48:51,600
Sometimes someone goes, sometimes they

1701
02:48:51,600 --> 02:48:53,600
don't go. We also give uh school related

1702
02:48:53,600 --> 02:48:55,760
absences which has occurred in the past.

1703
02:48:55,760 --> 02:48:57,439
Uh I've been told this year it was like

1704
02:48:57,439 --> 02:48:59,120
no your parents have to excuse the trip.

1705
02:48:59,120 --> 02:49:01,439
It's not our trip. As we we pondered

1706
02:49:01,439 --> 02:49:03,920
that and then the academic exchange um

1707
02:49:03,920 --> 02:49:06,399
is an incredible incredible experience

1708
02:49:06,399 --> 02:49:09,200
for the one two four students that do it

1709
02:49:09,200 --> 02:49:11,120
every year. But how it's been ran on the

1710
02:49:11,120 --> 02:49:12,880
back end has been a little bit complex.

1711
02:49:12,880 --> 02:49:14,720
So I put together a proposal on how we

1712
02:49:14,720 --> 02:49:16,880
can formalize that exchange process so

1713
02:49:16,880 --> 02:49:20,399
the students um the parents everyone has

1714
02:49:20,399 --> 02:49:22,080
expectations that are managed and

1715
02:49:22,080 --> 02:49:24,399
reasonable from our end on what they're

1716
02:49:24,399 --> 02:49:26,960
supposed to do and uh what a realistic

1717
02:49:26,960 --> 02:49:28,640
experience is to keep them on track for

1718
02:49:28,640 --> 02:49:31,040
graduation and credit uh and credits but

1719
02:49:31,040 --> 02:49:32,479
also not putting undue burden on our

1720
02:49:32,479 --> 02:49:33,600
teachers who are like I haven't seen you

1721
02:49:33,600 --> 02:49:35,359
in three months and I'm just supposed to

1722
02:49:35,359 --> 02:49:37,520
be okay with that. Um so we have a

1723
02:49:37,520 --> 02:49:39,279
couple different models that we believe

1724
02:49:39,279 --> 02:49:40,960
could be worked. I don't think it needs

1725
02:49:40,960 --> 02:49:42,640
to be presented here, but we've that's

1726
02:49:42,640 --> 02:49:44,479
more of a teaching and learning process

1727
02:49:44,479 --> 02:49:46,000
that we've started that dialogue. I said

1728
02:49:46,000 --> 02:49:47,120
this is how I believe in model it would

1729
02:49:47,120 --> 02:49:51,439
be very sustainable for a long time.

1730
02:49:51,439 --> 02:49:52,720
Is this if you have any questions for

1731
02:49:52,720 --> 02:49:56,230
us?

1732
02:49:56,240 --> 02:49:59,520
» Is there an existing

1733
02:49:59,520 --> 02:50:00,960
between the school district?

1734
02:50:00,960 --> 02:50:03,120
>> Um between not between the school

1735
02:50:03,120 --> 02:50:05,279
district and the association.

1736
02:50:05,279 --> 02:50:07,760
>> No. And we have created far more

1737
02:50:07,760 --> 02:50:11,920
structure over the years. Um just well

1738
02:50:11,920 --> 02:50:14,399
I'll say I particularly love structure

1739
02:50:14,399 --> 02:50:15,680
and operations. So partially because of

1740
02:50:15,680 --> 02:50:17,920
my OCD um but also the learnings the

1741
02:50:17,920 --> 02:50:19,680
rinse and repeat right we've been doing

1742
02:50:19,680 --> 02:50:21,279
this for over 40 years and we have

1743
02:50:21,279 --> 02:50:22,880
learned a lot and we we have launched

1744
02:50:22,880 --> 02:50:24,880
and iterated. So there is a lot more

1745
02:50:24,880 --> 02:50:26,560
structure but to Caleb's point and the

1746
02:50:26,560 --> 02:50:28,560
reason that we're here is there is so

1747
02:50:28,560 --> 02:50:31,120
much more opportunity to set the school

1748
02:50:31,120 --> 02:50:33,840
up for success the teachers and our

1749
02:50:33,840 --> 02:50:36,479
students. And so it's really being able

1750
02:50:36,479 --> 02:50:39,200
to give that that formality and that

1751
02:50:39,200 --> 02:50:41,200
enhanced structure so that everybody's

1752
02:50:41,200 --> 02:50:43,600
really extracting the maximum value from

1753
02:50:43,600 --> 02:50:47,040
you know once in a lifetime experience.

1754
02:50:47,040 --> 02:50:49,439
>> I I have a question. First question is

1755
02:50:49,439 --> 02:50:53,120
do you need board members to chef?

1756
02:50:53,120 --> 02:50:54,800
>> Yes.

1757
02:50:54,800 --> 02:50:57,840
>> Because I'm happy to go hang out with

1758
02:50:57,840 --> 02:51:05,269
>> I've seen you do YSA. You're good.

1759
02:51:05,279 --> 02:51:07,760
I mean a lot of the detail questions,

1760
02:51:07,760 --> 02:51:10,319
right? I mean what what does it look

1761
02:51:10,319 --> 02:51:14,000
like if we uh if we do formalize this?

1762
02:51:14,000 --> 02:51:18,080
Um how do we select the kids uh detail

1763
02:51:18,080 --> 02:51:19,920
what it looks like academically for

1764
02:51:19,920 --> 02:51:23,920
that? I mean those um just a lot to talk

1765
02:51:23,920 --> 02:51:24,640
about.

1766
02:51:24,640 --> 02:51:26,560
>> Yeah, great questions. in the proposal

1767
02:51:26,560 --> 02:51:28,479
it speaks a lot to the academic process

1768
02:51:28,479 --> 02:51:31,200
for the academic exchange in terms of

1769
02:51:31,200 --> 02:51:34,000
selection you know that I would we would

1770
02:51:34,000 --> 02:51:36,240
lean on they currently there's

1771
02:51:36,240 --> 02:51:38,560
application processes for all of it um

1772
02:51:38,560 --> 02:51:41,120
if in informalizing it I've already

1773
02:51:41,120 --> 02:51:42,720
talked with Tina if that were to be

1774
02:51:42,720 --> 02:51:44,319
something like we would we would need to

1775
02:51:44,319 --> 02:51:45,920
cover the expenses of our fee waver

1776
02:51:45,920 --> 02:51:48,240
students which informally has already

1777
02:51:48,240 --> 02:51:51,040
happened um between in the past again I

1778
02:51:51,040 --> 02:51:52,319
was not a part of this directly but in

1779
02:51:52,319 --> 02:51:54,560
the past we've had students in need that

1780
02:51:54,560 --> 02:51:56,479
we feel like this is they want to go.

1781
02:51:56,479 --> 02:51:58,479
It's been beneficial and between the

1782
02:51:58,479 --> 02:52:01,279
school and the association

1783
02:52:01,279 --> 02:52:03,120
sundance fund which is going away but

1784
02:52:03,120 --> 02:52:04,399
there's been other ways the school has

1785
02:52:04,399 --> 02:52:06,319
helped fund these things in the past and

1786
02:52:06,319 --> 02:52:08,399
the association is able to generate a

1787
02:52:08,399 --> 02:52:09,760
little bit of revenue and it's like and

1788
02:52:09,760 --> 02:52:12,399
again because it's reasonably affordable

1789
02:52:12,399 --> 02:52:14,000
they can we can get the money together

1790
02:52:14,000 --> 02:52:15,359
for the flight and those would be things

1791
02:52:15,359 --> 02:52:16,560
that we would still want to be able to

1792
02:52:16,560 --> 02:52:19,520
offer in my opinion um is a benefit to

1793
02:52:19,520 --> 02:52:21,040
formalize that process and say yeah

1794
02:52:21,040 --> 02:52:22,479
there's there's a process for this to

1795
02:52:22,479 --> 02:52:26,240
occur um especially we open it up atou

1796
02:52:26,240 --> 02:52:28,160
type situation where we said like,

1797
02:52:28,160 --> 02:52:29,439
"Yeah, this is something." And then we

1798
02:52:29,439 --> 02:52:31,680
could market it and promote it and tell

1799
02:52:31,680 --> 02:52:33,040
kids we want to go. There would

1800
02:52:33,040 --> 02:52:35,439
inevitably be caps and thresholds that

1801
02:52:35,439 --> 02:52:38,560
we can't send 150 kids over break unless

1802
02:52:38,560 --> 02:52:39,920
the whole board wants to go and our

1803
02:52:39,920 --> 02:52:41,920
whole staff

1804
02:52:41,920 --> 02:52:44,000
take over.

1805
02:52:44,000 --> 02:52:45,840
>> I don't think that's families.

1806
02:52:45,840 --> 02:52:49,359
>> Yeah, push is much smaller than we are.

1807
02:52:49,359 --> 02:52:51,120
>> Um, I'm happy to talk through how our

1808
02:52:51,120 --> 02:52:53,279
application process works now if you're

1809
02:52:53,279 --> 02:52:54,479
interested. Obviously, we're very

1810
02:52:54,479 --> 02:52:57,600
amenable to change for academic. Now,

1811
02:52:57,600 --> 02:52:59,600
students are made aware of the program

1812
02:52:59,600 --> 02:53:02,160
through the French teacher, um, Bernard.

1813
02:53:02,160 --> 02:53:04,080
Um, this year, we actually, Tina and I

1814
02:53:04,080 --> 02:53:06,160
went to present as well, um, just to

1815
02:53:06,160 --> 02:53:07,200
talk a little bit about the

1816
02:53:07,200 --> 02:53:09,439
opportunities. They then receive a

1817
02:53:09,439 --> 02:53:12,319
packet of sort of our our program

1818
02:53:12,319 --> 02:53:14,080
structure and frequently asked

1819
02:53:14,080 --> 02:53:16,479
questions. In that packet is a written

1820
02:53:16,479 --> 02:53:18,800
application for those academic students.

1821
02:53:18,800 --> 02:53:20,640
It's a handful of short answer

1822
02:53:20,640 --> 02:53:23,359
questions. Um, we also want to know sort

1823
02:53:23,359 --> 02:53:25,439
of, you know, what's like the living

1824
02:53:25,439 --> 02:53:27,600
scenario. So, if they're going to host a

1825
02:53:27,600 --> 02:53:29,840
student, does the student have a room by

1826
02:53:29,840 --> 02:53:31,680
themselves? Is it shared? Is it same

1827
02:53:31,680 --> 02:53:33,120
gender? Etc. So, getting an

1828
02:53:33,120 --> 02:53:34,880
understanding of that. We also want to

1829
02:53:34,880 --> 02:53:36,160
ensure that the parents have signed off

1830
02:53:36,160 --> 02:53:37,680
and are aware that their kids are trying

1831
02:53:37,680 --> 02:53:40,640
to go to France for three months. Um,

1832
02:53:40,640 --> 02:53:42,560
from there, we then bring those

1833
02:53:42,560 --> 02:53:45,120
applicants into an interview pool. Um,

1834
02:53:45,120 --> 02:53:48,399
and we typically receive every year, I'd

1835
02:53:48,399 --> 02:53:51,279
say between three and eight academic

1836
02:53:51,279 --> 02:53:53,520
applications. Corabell receives far

1837
02:53:53,520 --> 02:53:56,240
fewer because they are smaller. Um,

1838
02:53:56,240 --> 02:53:58,640
those applicants interview with myself

1839
02:53:58,640 --> 02:54:01,040
and Tina. Um, so we get to know them a

1840
02:54:01,040 --> 02:54:02,399
little bit beyond the paper. We ensure

1841
02:54:02,399 --> 02:54:04,880
that AI has not written those responses.

1842
02:54:04,880 --> 02:54:06,960
Um, and we also test their French. We

1843
02:54:06,960 --> 02:54:08,880
speak to them in French as well. Um,

1844
02:54:08,880 --> 02:54:11,359
less so for winter summer where the

1845
02:54:11,359 --> 02:54:13,359
language isn't critical. it is an

1846
02:54:13,359 --> 02:54:15,200
academic because you have to be able to

1847
02:54:15,200 --> 02:54:18,240
sit through French classes. Um, not only

1848
02:54:18,240 --> 02:54:19,359
just getting through your day-to-day,

1849
02:54:19,359 --> 02:54:20,560
but you know, you don't want to just be

1850
02:54:20,560 --> 02:54:22,640
inundated sitting in a classroom and not

1851
02:54:22,640 --> 02:54:24,560
having a clue what's being said. So, we

1852
02:54:24,560 --> 02:54:26,399
test their French skills and then from

1853
02:54:26,399 --> 02:54:29,439
there we sort of give the stack rank and

1854
02:54:29,439 --> 02:54:31,600
we wait for France to let us know how

1855
02:54:31,600 --> 02:54:33,040
many applicants have passed through

1856
02:54:33,040 --> 02:54:35,040
their pool and then we can make our

1857
02:54:35,040 --> 02:54:37,040
final cut to give that direct

1858
02:54:37,040 --> 02:54:40,080
reciprocity pairing. Um usually the

1859
02:54:40,080 --> 02:54:43,600
French principal is ruthless. She is

1860
02:54:43,600 --> 02:54:47,040
just like no this you shall not pass. Um

1861
02:54:47,040 --> 02:54:49,600
it is her last year she was retiring. So

1862
02:54:49,600 --> 02:54:51,920
uh we are optimistic for some fresh

1863
02:54:51,920 --> 02:54:54,800
exciting uh blood there. Um but for

1864
02:54:54,800 --> 02:54:56,720
example France only had three applicants

1865
02:54:56,720 --> 02:54:59,279
this year and there's a very very strong

1866
02:54:59,279 --> 02:55:01,120
chance that their principal will only

1867
02:55:01,120 --> 02:55:03,359
allow two. Um so they go through a

1868
02:55:03,359 --> 02:55:04,720
similar you know vetting process

1869
02:55:04,720 --> 02:55:07,279
slightly different but we do uh we also

1870
02:55:07,279 --> 02:55:09,279
welcome feedback from the school. So our

1871
02:55:09,279 --> 02:55:10,960
French teacher obvious obviously knows

1872
02:55:10,960 --> 02:55:13,840
these students um and so that's helpful.

1873
02:55:13,840 --> 02:55:16,399
Um we last year we're also getting

1874
02:55:16,399 --> 02:55:18,319
counselor feedback just to get a better

1875
02:55:18,319 --> 02:55:20,800
understanding. We provided a survey of

1876
02:55:20,800 --> 02:55:23,120
you know give us a ranking on this scale

1877
02:55:23,120 --> 02:55:25,840
of um you know ability to navigate

1878
02:55:25,840 --> 02:55:27,920
ambiguity, ability to stand problem

1879
02:55:27,920 --> 02:55:29,760
solve, ability you know to to overcome

1880
02:55:29,760 --> 02:55:31,760
adversity those sorts of things. Um, and

1881
02:55:31,760 --> 02:55:33,200
that allows us to sort of create that

1882
02:55:33,200 --> 02:55:34,800
stock breaking knowing that then we need

1883
02:55:34,800 --> 02:55:36,720
to be able to pair with friends.

1884
02:55:36,720 --> 02:55:38,800
>> And you said the academic program is

1885
02:55:38,800 --> 02:55:40,240
juniors and seniors.

1886
02:55:40,240 --> 02:55:42,720
>> That's correct. Yes. We also kids that

1887
02:55:42,720 --> 02:55:47,279
go for the February and then go again.

1888
02:55:47,279 --> 02:55:48,000
>> Absolutely.

1889
02:55:48,000 --> 02:55:48,720
>> Academics.

1890
02:55:48,720 --> 02:55:50,560
>> Absolutely. Um, and it's also really

1891
02:55:50,560 --> 02:55:51,920
cool. One thing I was remiss in not

1892
02:55:51,920 --> 02:55:53,359
mentioning from the immersion

1893
02:55:53,359 --> 02:55:54,640
perspective, we're hearing more and more

1894
02:55:54,640 --> 02:55:57,040
of our students now say, "I've been DLI

1895
02:55:57,040 --> 02:55:59,359
since first grade. this is literally the

1896
02:55:59,359 --> 02:56:01,120
culmination of everything I've been

1897
02:56:01,120 --> 02:56:03,520
working for. And I think that is just

1898
02:56:03,520 --> 02:56:07,680
such a truly remarkable experience that

1899
02:56:07,680 --> 02:56:09,120
these things that they have been

1900
02:56:09,120 --> 02:56:12,319
studying on the pages and with their

1901
02:56:12,319 --> 02:56:14,720
teachers are now coming to life. And

1902
02:56:14,720 --> 02:56:17,120
when I tell you I am beyond impressed by

1903
02:56:17,120 --> 02:56:19,359
the level of French of the students

1904
02:56:19,359 --> 02:56:20,960
coming out of this high school. I'm

1905
02:56:20,960 --> 02:56:22,800
fluent in French, but I learned the hard

1906
02:56:22,800 --> 02:56:25,600
way as an adult. Um, and it it is

1907
02:56:25,600 --> 02:56:28,000
astonishing. Um, and so for many of

1908
02:56:28,000 --> 02:56:29,760
these students, they've gone on winter

1909
02:56:29,760 --> 02:56:32,000
summer and been on appemic because they

1910
02:56:32,000 --> 02:56:34,560
said 10 days wasn't enough. Um, and

1911
02:56:34,560 --> 02:56:36,560
they're just so drawn to again this

1912
02:56:36,560 --> 02:56:38,640
thing that's been sort of novel, but

1913
02:56:38,640 --> 02:56:40,640
they've been so immersed in. And you

1914
02:56:40,640 --> 02:56:42,800
know, it's now the last several years,

1915
02:56:42,800 --> 02:56:44,399
few years that we've kind of seen that

1916
02:56:44,399 --> 02:56:46,240
come full circle of the students that

1917
02:56:46,240 --> 02:56:48,240
started DLI in first grade that now are

1918
02:56:48,240 --> 02:56:49,680
old enough to participate in one of

1919
02:56:49,680 --> 02:56:52,080
these programs. Um and then you know we

1920
02:56:52,080 --> 02:56:54,080
have the families that have multiple

1921
02:56:54,080 --> 02:56:56,960
children and they send them all right

1922
02:56:56,960 --> 02:56:59,200
they they all apply the winter summer

1923
02:56:59,200 --> 02:57:01,520
for academic. Um we had one academic

1924
02:57:01,520 --> 02:57:03,120
student last year. He has two younger

1925
02:57:03,120 --> 02:57:04,960
siblings who are twins. They've applied

1926
02:57:04,960 --> 02:57:06,319
for a winter summer for this coming

1927
02:57:06,319 --> 02:57:09,600
year. Um it's just one of those kind of

1928
02:57:09,600 --> 02:57:11,120
unparalleled

1929
02:57:11,120 --> 02:57:13,840
experiences that you don't get from a

1930
02:57:13,840 --> 02:57:16,880
large for-profit company like Caleb

1931
02:57:16,880 --> 02:57:20,870
mentioned.

1932
02:57:20,880 --> 02:57:23,600
Um, if we do this for the for our French

1933
02:57:23,600 --> 02:57:26,800
kids, what we do for our Spanish kids?

1934
02:57:26,800 --> 02:57:30,080
>> Great question. I mean, we don't we have

1935
02:57:30,080 --> 02:57:32,960
to find a partnership and if you were to

1936
02:57:32,960 --> 02:57:34,000
pursue it, where do you want to go,

1937
02:57:34,000 --> 02:57:35,359
Nick?

1938
02:57:35,359 --> 02:57:43,190
>> So, honestly, French.

1939
02:57:43,200 --> 02:57:45,040
» No, I I just I just think, you know,

1940
02:57:45,040 --> 02:57:46,399
it's almost an incredible program. It

1941
02:57:46,399 --> 02:57:48,800
could be supportive. you know, there is

1942
02:57:48,800 --> 02:57:51,600
a case for thinking about what we do for

1943
02:57:51,600 --> 02:57:53,359
uh similar opportunity for people who

1944
02:57:53,359 --> 02:57:57,269
are in Spanish.

1945
02:57:57,279 --> 02:58:00,160
» There is a a outside of school program

1946
02:58:00,160 --> 02:58:01,840
that some of our students do an exchange

1947
02:58:01,840 --> 02:58:05,760
between us in Costa Rica. Um uh Nikki

1948
02:58:05,760 --> 02:58:08,319
Arnstead, one of the teachers at

1949
02:58:08,319 --> 02:58:10,000
Treasure, formerly Treasure Mountain

1950
02:58:10,000 --> 02:58:11,920
High School, has has facilitated some of

1951
02:58:11,920 --> 02:58:13,520
those in the past. So there's been

1952
02:58:13,520 --> 02:58:14,800
opportunities, but those are kind of

1953
02:58:14,800 --> 02:58:16,880
the, as Caleb mentioned, like the office

1954
02:58:16,880 --> 02:58:19,359
shelf more service opportunities to

1955
02:58:19,359 --> 02:58:20,560
travel and do that. And then those

1956
02:58:20,560 --> 02:58:21,600
students would come and do some

1957
02:58:21,600 --> 02:58:23,680
shadowing. Um, this was when I was a

1958
02:58:23,680 --> 02:58:25,520
branch of treasure. So been a couple of

1959
02:58:25,520 --> 02:58:27,760
years, but those have existed in our in

1960
02:58:27,760 --> 02:58:29,760
our system.

1961
02:58:29,760 --> 02:58:31,680
I'll say in the context of sister city,

1962
02:58:31,680 --> 02:58:33,200
I won't obviously speak on behalf of the

1963
02:58:33,200 --> 02:58:34,640
city, but they have said before they're

1964
02:58:34,640 --> 02:58:37,120
very expensive. So there is, you know,

1965
02:58:37,120 --> 02:58:38,640
there's the investment that's been in

1966
02:58:38,640 --> 02:58:41,040
this for over four decades. And I think

1967
02:58:41,040 --> 02:58:43,439
there's something special about us being

1968
02:58:43,439 --> 02:58:46,399
each other's unique sister cities. Um,

1969
02:58:46,399 --> 02:58:49,760
so obviously plenty of opportunity of of

1970
02:58:49,760 --> 02:58:51,680
language immersion, but I think this

1971
02:58:51,680 --> 02:58:53,600
sister city relationship is something

1972
02:58:53,600 --> 02:58:56,000
that goes above and beyond just what

1973
02:58:56,000 --> 02:58:59,840
we're doing with our students, right?

1974
02:58:59,840 --> 02:59:02,240
>> You talk about um the fact that both

1975
02:59:02,240 --> 02:59:04,399
cities are having the Winter Olympics

1976
02:59:04,399 --> 02:59:06,399
and maybe having kids who are interested

1977
02:59:06,399 --> 02:59:09,040
in leadership and in government.

1978
02:59:09,040 --> 02:59:12,560
>> Yes. going and seeing how our different

1979
02:59:12,560 --> 02:59:16,479
leaders prepare for that. Our Park City

1980
02:59:16,479 --> 02:59:18,000
folks are going back and forth.

1981
02:59:18,000 --> 02:59:19,520
>> Back and forth talking a lot.

1982
02:59:19,520 --> 02:59:20,960
>> Absolutely.

1983
02:59:20,960 --> 02:59:24,240
>> Um Tina and I actually just met um with

1984
02:59:24,240 --> 02:59:26,720
Ryan and Adam two weeks ago even to talk

1985
02:59:26,720 --> 02:59:29,200
about structuring a formal mayoral visit

1986
02:59:29,200 --> 02:59:30,720
um particularly in prep for the

1987
02:59:30,720 --> 02:59:32,960
Olympics. So there's so much that the

1988
02:59:32,960 --> 02:59:34,720
association does outside of our youth. I

1989
02:59:34,720 --> 02:59:36,479
would say our youth is really our core

1990
02:59:36,479 --> 02:59:39,520
focus and I love this idea of um and I

1991
02:59:39,520 --> 02:59:41,279
immediately think PC caps of this

1992
02:59:41,279 --> 02:59:42,960
opportunity of like that professional

1993
02:59:42,960 --> 02:59:45,600
aspect and this incredibly unique

1994
02:59:45,600 --> 02:59:49,120
overlap um of of back-to-back Olympics

1995
02:59:49,120 --> 02:59:51,279
and all of the learnings there and we're

1996
02:59:51,279 --> 02:59:53,120
always looking for ways to increase the

1997
02:59:53,120 --> 02:59:55,840
learnings across the town holistically

1998
02:59:55,840 --> 02:59:58,000
even outside of our students. So you

1999
02:59:58,000 --> 03:00:00,000
know whether that's grooming or snow

2000
03:00:00,000 --> 03:00:02,720
making and all sorts of things. So

2001
03:00:02,720 --> 03:00:04,720
absolutely yes. I think that would be

2002
03:00:04,720 --> 03:00:08,000
phenomenal um for us and and if Tina

2003
03:00:08,000 --> 03:00:10,160
were here I think she would like stand

2004
03:00:10,160 --> 03:00:12,240
on the table and like shout big yes to

2005
03:00:12,240 --> 03:00:15,200
this. We want to leverage this

2006
03:00:15,200 --> 03:00:16,880
relationship that we've had with

2007
03:00:16,880 --> 03:00:20,800
Gorchelle and how deep it is to further

2008
03:00:20,800 --> 03:00:23,520
the town period. Right. And there's so

2009
03:00:23,520 --> 03:00:25,359
many things that we can share learnings

2010
03:00:25,359 --> 03:00:27,680
on like Corchel shuts down in the

2011
03:00:27,680 --> 03:00:29,520
summer. They don't believe they can be a

2012
03:00:29,520 --> 03:00:32,240
fourseason town and we try to

2013
03:00:32,240 --> 03:00:35,439
consistently point them to Park City and

2014
03:00:35,439 --> 03:00:36,720
how Park City didn't used to be a

2015
03:00:36,720 --> 03:00:38,720
four-season town and its evolution. And

2016
03:00:38,720 --> 03:00:40,960
so I think there's so so much

2017
03:00:40,960 --> 03:00:43,760
opportunity here. Um we've got a stellar

2018
03:00:43,760 --> 03:00:45,840
board. Um we're all volunteers

2019
03:00:45,840 --> 03:00:48,000
obviously. Again, we're a 501c3 and so

2020
03:00:48,000 --> 03:00:50,240
at you know at some point we're like our

2021
03:00:50,240 --> 03:00:52,319
bandwidth is stretched but we all have

2022
03:00:52,319 --> 03:00:55,120
that appetite and fire to do more. So, I

2023
03:00:55,120 --> 03:00:56,560
feel like that would be such an amazing

2024
03:00:56,560 --> 03:00:58,560
thing to explore. One thing I think

2025
03:00:58,560 --> 03:01:00,080
first time I came knocking on your door

2026
03:01:00,080 --> 03:01:01,520
right when you started your new job

2027
03:01:01,520 --> 03:01:02,960
like, "Hello, welcome. I have some

2028
03:01:02,960 --> 03:01:04,479
things I'd like to talk to you about."

2029
03:01:04,479 --> 03:01:06,319
Um, was a culinary exchange with the

2030
03:01:06,319 --> 03:01:08,880
high school. Um, so France French high

2031
03:01:08,880 --> 03:01:10,240
schools are interesting. You almost pick

2032
03:01:10,240 --> 03:01:12,479
a major in high school, much like we do

2033
03:01:12,479 --> 03:01:15,120
at university here. And the culinary

2034
03:01:15,120 --> 03:01:16,560
programs that they have there are

2035
03:01:16,560 --> 03:01:18,880
tremendous, just like ours, and of

2036
03:01:18,880 --> 03:01:20,800
course, very different. Um, the high

2037
03:01:20,800 --> 03:01:22,800
school that we do the exchange with

2038
03:01:22,800 --> 03:01:25,200
actually has a fullervice restaurant on

2039
03:01:25,200 --> 03:01:27,439
site, open to the public that is

2040
03:01:27,439 --> 03:01:31,120
entirely cooked by students and staffed

2041
03:01:31,120 --> 03:01:34,560
weight post staffed by students. I ate

2042
03:01:34,560 --> 03:01:36,319
there last year when I was there.

2043
03:01:36,319 --> 03:01:38,720
Phenomenal food. So, you know, as we

2044
03:01:38,720 --> 03:01:40,720
think about these more specific niches,

2045
03:01:40,720 --> 03:01:43,920
I think there's so much opportunity that

2046
03:01:43,920 --> 03:01:45,920
formalizing the relationship would allow

2047
03:01:45,920 --> 03:01:47,840
us to continue to grow into these

2048
03:01:47,840 --> 03:01:49,760
specific verticals.

2049
03:01:49,760 --> 03:01:52,960
How do we make it work academically? I'm

2050
03:01:52,960 --> 03:01:54,640
pretty familiar that educational systems

2051
03:01:54,640 --> 03:01:56,080
outside of the US are quite different.

2052
03:01:56,080 --> 03:01:57,840
So, how do we make it work academically?

2053
03:01:57,840 --> 03:01:59,600
>> How have we in the past?

2054
03:01:59,600 --> 03:02:02,000
>> How haven't we in the past and how how

2055
03:02:02,000 --> 03:02:07,840
>> in the past which I do not believe is a good path forward and it happened

2056
03:02:07,840 --> 03:02:09,840
2012. I didn't actually know that the

2057
03:02:09,840 --> 03:02:12,000
academic exchange very few people knew

2058
03:02:12,000 --> 03:02:13,520
that the academic exchange was happen.

2059
03:02:13,520 --> 03:02:15,840
Everyone knows about the February break.

2060
03:02:15,840 --> 03:02:17,359
>> I was like, whoa, we've got an academic

2061
03:02:17,359 --> 03:02:19,120
exchange. I didn't know that. um and I

2062
03:02:19,120 --> 03:02:20,160
was assistant principal while the high

2063
03:02:20,160 --> 03:02:21,200
school was happening. I didn't know

2064
03:02:21,200 --> 03:02:23,040
that. It wasn't something that everyone

2065
03:02:23,040 --> 03:02:25,279
was in tune to, but um currently the

2066
03:02:25,279 --> 03:02:26,640
students stay enrolled in their courses

2067
03:02:26,640 --> 03:02:28,160
and they do their best to follow along

2068
03:02:28,160 --> 03:02:30,800
via Canvas or Mountain online school.

2069
03:02:30,800 --> 03:02:32,319
It's uh they're enrolled in all your

2070
03:02:32,319 --> 03:02:33,680
courses there while attending a full day

2071
03:02:33,680 --> 03:02:36,640
of school there. Um it's brutal. It's

2072
03:02:36,640 --> 03:02:38,720
not it's not a successful model. Not to

2073
03:02:38,720 --> 03:02:40,640
mention our computers. Now, the sister

2074
03:02:40,640 --> 03:02:42,319
city association does they know this.

2075
03:02:42,319 --> 03:02:45,120
So, they provided computers, but um but

2076
03:02:45,120 --> 03:02:46,800
our our computers don't work. it's not

2077
03:02:46,800 --> 03:02:48,800
necessarily reliable to be on Canvas.

2078
03:02:48,800 --> 03:02:51,120
Um, so we ran into like some pains where

2079
03:02:51,120 --> 03:02:52,479
kids are going and then they come back

2080
03:02:52,479 --> 03:02:54,399
and teachers are in a tough spot where

2081
03:02:54,399 --> 03:02:56,800
they're like, how am I sp like it's

2082
03:02:56,800 --> 03:02:58,560
unfair on the teacher, it's unfair on

2083
03:02:58,560 --> 03:03:00,880
the student. Um, so the model that I

2084
03:03:00,880 --> 03:03:02,720
would like to move forward with focuses

2085
03:03:02,720 --> 03:03:05,600
on uh reducing and it comes at a

2086
03:03:05,600 --> 03:03:07,200
sacrifice for a student on academic

2087
03:03:07,200 --> 03:03:08,640
exchange. No, you don't get to stay in

2088
03:03:08,640 --> 03:03:10,960
all your AP classes live, right? there's

2089
03:03:10,960 --> 03:03:13,279
a there's a choice and that's okay

2090
03:03:13,279 --> 03:03:14,960
because this experience might very well

2091
03:03:14,960 --> 03:03:16,640
be worth your junior year or your senior

2092
03:03:16,640 --> 03:03:19,359
year taking a lighter course load but um

2093
03:03:19,359 --> 03:03:20,720
there's a couple different platforms we

2094
03:03:20,720 --> 03:03:22,319
have available which includes our Utah

2095
03:03:22,319 --> 03:03:24,560
student online students selecting some

2096
03:03:24,560 --> 03:03:26,160
critical classes they need there

2097
03:03:26,160 --> 03:03:27,680
possibly depending on curriculum

2098
03:03:27,680 --> 03:03:29,840
adoption using egeneuity our platform

2099
03:03:29,840 --> 03:03:32,160
for remediation for past failed credit

2100
03:03:32,160 --> 03:03:34,960
in some core areas pairing down the load

2101
03:03:34,960 --> 03:03:37,359
here potentially accepting some credit

2102
03:03:37,359 --> 03:03:38,960
from France depending on what they bring

2103
03:03:38,960 --> 03:03:41,279
back because it's accredited and and and

2104
03:03:41,279 --> 03:03:43,279
working in partnership to say, "Hey,

2105
03:03:43,279 --> 03:03:44,800
let's see what we can do." Additionally,

2106
03:03:44,800 --> 03:03:46,399
we have a lot of juniors who can afford

2107
03:03:46,399 --> 03:03:49,359
to leave for a quarter and just not take

2108
03:03:49,359 --> 03:03:51,200
anything and just go all in on France

2109
03:03:51,200 --> 03:03:52,479
and that experience is worthy and

2110
03:03:52,479 --> 03:03:53,840
worthwhile. We support them. Our

2111
03:03:53,840 --> 03:03:55,520
counselors can help, but we do want to

2112
03:03:55,520 --> 03:03:56,960
keep them enrolled even if they're not

2113
03:03:56,960 --> 03:03:58,880
in any classes in this unique situation.

2114
03:03:58,880 --> 03:04:01,359
We want to say we in a in a partnership

2115
03:04:01,359 --> 03:04:03,359
like you're still our kiddo. We're not

2116
03:04:03,359 --> 03:04:05,920
saying get out in the next year in our

2117
03:04:05,920 --> 03:04:07,279
current model. I've informed the sister

2118
03:04:07,279 --> 03:04:09,520
association that we do not have a a

2119
03:04:09,520 --> 03:04:11,680
formal MU or any process. So this is a

2120
03:04:11,680 --> 03:04:13,120
beautiful program that I do support and

2121
03:04:13,120 --> 03:04:14,720
the student is going to underroll in

2122
03:04:14,720 --> 03:04:16,160
parks high school. They cannot still be

2123
03:04:16,160 --> 03:04:18,720
at parks high school unless we formalize

2124
03:04:18,720 --> 03:04:20,640
a relationship because I didn't know I

2125
03:04:20,640 --> 03:04:21,920
can't I can't it's not for the teacher

2126
03:04:21,920 --> 03:04:23,600
as a student and students are still

2127
03:04:23,600 --> 03:04:25,680
going to probably go if that's the case

2128
03:04:25,680 --> 03:04:28,000
because again that model is it can work.

2129
03:04:28,000 --> 03:04:30,160
It's what all the other programs do and

2130
03:04:30,160 --> 03:04:31,439
they'll come back with what they come

2131
03:04:31,439 --> 03:04:33,120
back with and our counselors will work

2132
03:04:33,120 --> 03:04:34,960
to to get them back online. But we're

2133
03:04:34,960 --> 03:04:36,160
not going to have these teachers being

2134
03:04:36,160 --> 03:04:37,279
like, "Yeah, I've got this kid on my

2135
03:04:37,279 --> 03:04:39,680
roll that doesn't come for three months

2136
03:04:39,680 --> 03:04:41,840
and uh and and then it's like 16

2137
03:04:41,840 --> 03:04:43,359
classes. So, you're in school all day

2138
03:04:43,359 --> 03:04:44,640
and then you got like figure out Park

2139
03:04:44,640 --> 03:04:46,399
City High School all day." We're going

2140
03:04:46,399 --> 03:04:48,560
to pair that down substantially uh and

2141
03:04:48,560 --> 03:04:50,479
try to create a

2142
03:04:50,479 --> 03:04:52,000
experience for the kids that can go that

2143
03:04:52,000 --> 03:04:54,720
just changes their life.

2144
03:04:54,720 --> 03:04:56,960
Reaching our mission.

2145
03:04:56,960 --> 03:04:58,880
You even have a project based curriculum

2146
03:04:58,880 --> 03:05:02,640
like PCAST or culinary based or you know

2147
03:05:02,640 --> 03:05:04,960
something else French that the kid is

2148
03:05:04,960 --> 03:05:06,560
especially interested in based on what

2149
03:05:06,560 --> 03:05:08,160
they've taken here

2150
03:05:08,160 --> 03:05:09,279
>> or what they would get

2151
03:05:09,279 --> 03:05:11,760
>> for when they're there. So French class

2152
03:05:11,760 --> 03:05:13,200
is one area that's going in a carve out

2153
03:05:13,200 --> 03:05:14,960
in the proposal that says you can still

2154
03:05:14,960 --> 03:05:17,520
there a caveat to live classes is we

2155
03:05:17,520 --> 03:05:19,600
might keep them in live French but for

2156
03:05:19,600 --> 03:05:21,680
sustainability right now like the first

2157
03:05:21,680 --> 03:05:24,000
evolution my proposal is we just keep it

2158
03:05:24,000 --> 03:05:25,680
really clean and what they want to do is

2159
03:05:25,680 --> 03:05:28,640
truly asynchronous online and so and

2160
03:05:28,640 --> 03:05:30,960
then I do believe that those are the

2161
03:05:30,960 --> 03:05:32,720
progressions that we can make but given

2162
03:05:32,720 --> 03:05:35,200
where we're at the the fact that this

2163
03:05:35,200 --> 03:05:37,600
exchange is happening next year as of

2164
03:05:37,600 --> 03:05:39,040
today the kids that are going are

2165
03:05:39,040 --> 03:05:40,720
expecting to unenroll and no longer be

2166
03:05:40,720 --> 03:05:42,960
our student because I've had to say we

2167
03:05:42,960 --> 03:05:44,319
got to clean this up

2168
03:05:44,319 --> 03:05:45,760
>> because we can't have you be our kid

2169
03:05:45,760 --> 03:05:47,920
when it just doesn't it's not allowable,

2170
03:05:47,920 --> 03:05:48,319
>> right?

2171
03:05:48,319 --> 03:05:50,880
>> Um but then I would love to explore that

2172
03:05:50,880 --> 03:05:52,960
in the future. Uh potentially some

2173
03:05:52,960 --> 03:05:54,560
project based learning experiences that

2174
03:05:54,560 --> 03:05:55,840
they could come back and we could issue

2175
03:05:55,840 --> 03:05:58,160
some other credits, but it would not be

2176
03:05:58,160 --> 03:06:01,359
a live teacher on Canvas saying like

2177
03:06:01,359 --> 03:06:03,200
it's unfair. The student came back this

2178
03:06:03,200 --> 03:06:04,640
year, the teachers are in a bad spot and

2179
03:06:04,640 --> 03:06:07,040
the kids in a bad spot and you're like h

2180
03:06:07,040 --> 03:06:09,920
>> it doesn't feel good. So, I probably

2181
03:06:09,920 --> 03:06:11,120
talk about this all night, but what do

2182
03:06:11,120 --> 03:06:13,120
you need from us?

2183
03:06:13,120 --> 03:06:16,240
>> I think that right now, um, I think that

2184
03:06:16,240 --> 03:06:19,120
we need to get an MU drafted that will

2185
03:06:19,120 --> 03:06:22,000
go to the board for approval in June so

2186
03:06:22,000 --> 03:06:25,040
that we can then then I can say, okay,

2187
03:06:25,040 --> 03:06:26,640
sister association, keep running your

2188
03:06:26,640 --> 03:06:27,760
thing. Yes, we're going to help you

2189
03:06:27,760 --> 03:06:30,399
screen applicants. Yes, we will um

2190
03:06:30,399 --> 03:06:33,600
advertise um and and yes, we will build

2191
03:06:33,600 --> 03:06:36,240
on the academic exchange side. We'll

2192
03:06:36,240 --> 03:06:37,760
make sure we have a plan. will support

2193
03:06:37,760 --> 03:06:39,200
it with their counselors. That proposal

2194
03:06:39,200 --> 03:06:41,439
exists. On the February break trip, the

2195
03:06:41,439 --> 03:06:43,680
winter summer, again, most of our school

2196
03:06:43,680 --> 03:06:45,600
calls it the February break trip. We'll

2197
03:06:45,600 --> 03:06:47,359
give you two school related absences and

2198
03:06:47,359 --> 03:06:48,640
we're going to send two chaprons or

2199
03:06:48,640 --> 03:06:50,080
we're going to send a chaperon every 10

2200
03:06:50,080 --> 03:06:52,240
kids because and another nice thing

2201
03:06:52,240 --> 03:06:54,399
about uh the winter summer trip is if

2202
03:06:54,399 --> 03:06:56,479
it's our trip and we have a level of

2203
03:06:56,479 --> 03:06:58,720
ownership, we can hold students

2204
03:06:58,720 --> 03:07:01,359
accountable to behaviors we expect. We

2205
03:07:01,359 --> 03:07:02,960
expect kids to go and make decisions

2206
03:07:02,960 --> 03:07:04,640
that are healthy to high school and

2207
03:07:04,640 --> 03:07:07,359
regardless of laws that apply there. um

2208
03:07:07,359 --> 03:07:12,080
is not a trip to go drink and that's not a trip we're endorsing. I

2209
03:07:12,080 --> 03:07:13,920
don't care if you're 18. I understand

2210
03:07:13,920 --> 03:07:15,520
the culture in France is different, but

2211
03:07:15,520 --> 03:07:17,439
this is not a party trip. It's a

2212
03:07:17,439 --> 03:07:21,680
cultural exchange trip. It's a it's a fun trip. It's exciting.

2213
03:07:21,680 --> 03:07:23,120
You will laugh, you will cry, you'll

2214
03:07:23,120 --> 03:07:24,720
play, you'll get to ski, you get to do

2215
03:07:24,720 --> 03:07:25,920
all the things, but it's not a party

2216
03:07:25,920 --> 03:07:27,840
trip. Um, and I'm not saying it has been

2217
03:07:27,840 --> 03:07:29,600
a party trip, but there have been a few

2218
03:07:29,600 --> 03:07:32,399
outlying situations over the course of

2219
03:07:32,399 --> 03:07:35,600
four years where they've ran into issues

2220
03:07:35,600 --> 03:07:37,760
and then we're kind of like, is it our

2221
03:07:37,760 --> 03:07:39,840
thing to like jump in and help or not?

2222
03:07:39,840 --> 03:07:41,840
And like, and now it's clean. And with

2223
03:07:41,840 --> 03:07:43,040
the parents, it's going to be clean and

2224
03:07:43,040 --> 03:07:44,640
we're going to say, "Mom and dad,

2225
03:07:44,640 --> 03:07:45,760
grandma and grandpa, whoever the

2226
03:07:45,760 --> 03:07:47,120
guardian, these are the expectations."

2227
03:07:47,120 --> 03:07:48,479
And yeah, if they don't follow, we're

2228
03:07:48,479 --> 03:07:49,760
going to send them home.

2229
03:07:49,760 --> 03:07:52,000
>> Um, because we don't we're not trying to

2230
03:07:52,000 --> 03:07:54,319
generate a party trip. That is not the

2231
03:07:54,319 --> 03:07:55,840
goal. In fact, we're combating against

2232
03:07:55,840 --> 03:07:57,920
that by becoming a partner. Um, this

2233
03:07:57,920 --> 03:08:00,080
last trip was great. We heard no reports

2234
03:08:00,080 --> 03:08:01,920
of of

2235
03:08:01,920 --> 03:08:03,520
behavior of concern, but we would want

2236
03:08:03,520 --> 03:08:05,359
to send chaprons and make sure we do it

2237
03:08:05,359 --> 03:08:06,000
right.

2238
03:08:06,000 --> 03:08:08,880
>> I think the should a board member has to

2239
03:08:08,880 --> 03:08:16,950
be

2240
03:08:16,960 --> 03:08:18,720
» in between now and June. There are some

2241
03:08:18,720 --> 03:08:20,560
logistical things we need to figure out.

2242
03:08:20,560 --> 03:08:23,120
If we move forward with eenuity and

2243
03:08:23,120 --> 03:08:25,120
offering original credit, it does have

2244
03:08:25,120 --> 03:08:27,120
to go through a formal curriculum

2245
03:08:27,120 --> 03:08:30,160
adoption. We need to look at uh

2246
03:08:30,160 --> 03:08:32,240
liability and insurance. If we're going

2247
03:08:32,240 --> 03:08:34,160
to formalize this partnership, so

2248
03:08:34,160 --> 03:08:35,840
there's a couple logistical things we

2249
03:08:35,840 --> 03:08:38,479
need to sort out before we move forward.

2250
03:08:38,479 --> 03:08:40,319
I really like to look into the credit

2251
03:08:40,319 --> 03:08:42,399
they get from actually taking French

2252
03:08:42,399 --> 03:08:44,319
classes

2253
03:08:44,319 --> 03:08:44,960
as well.

2254
03:08:44,960 --> 03:08:47,120
>> And there the French school is one thing

2255
03:08:47,120 --> 03:08:48,640
that they've been working on. Uh because

2256
03:08:48,640 --> 03:08:50,160
I told them like if they come back with

2257
03:08:50,160 --> 03:08:52,800
a a transcript as long as the French

2258
03:08:52,800 --> 03:08:54,640
school produces a transcript for us, we

2259
03:08:54,640 --> 03:08:57,760
will acredit French high school. We will

2260
03:08:57,760 --> 03:09:00,160
accept that and give as many parallel

2261
03:09:00,160 --> 03:09:02,800
credits as we can. Sometimes it might be

2262
03:09:02,800 --> 03:09:04,720
like, you know, if we have a kid come

2263
03:09:04,720 --> 03:09:05,920
from a private school and they have

2264
03:09:05,920 --> 03:09:07,600
Bible class, even though it's a credit,

2265
03:09:07,600 --> 03:09:09,520
there's nothing there like that that

2266
03:09:09,520 --> 03:09:11,120
credit doesn't transfer to Parker High

2267
03:09:11,120 --> 03:09:12,960
School and those and it won't be viable

2268
03:09:12,960 --> 03:09:14,720
from France. But they might be a class

2269
03:09:14,720 --> 03:09:16,319
where it's like we have nothing

2270
03:09:16,319 --> 03:09:18,319
comparable to offer. Um, so that

2271
03:09:18,319 --> 03:09:19,760
situation could exist, but if they come

2272
03:09:19,760 --> 03:09:21,680
back with math credit, we're going to

2273
03:09:21,680 --> 03:09:23,120
align that to the best of our ability to

2274
03:09:23,120 --> 03:09:25,200
issue math credit on a quarter basis,

2275
03:09:25,200 --> 03:09:26,640
even in a semester system, we'll have

2276
03:09:26,640 --> 03:09:28,479
the ability to do that. So that's that

2277
03:09:28,479 --> 03:09:30,720
is a that's a phase that's happening.

2278
03:09:30,720 --> 03:09:32,160
Ash's been working on it. It's in

2279
03:09:32,160 --> 03:09:33,760
process. We started talking, had a

2280
03:09:33,760 --> 03:09:34,240
discussion.

2281
03:09:34,240 --> 03:09:35,600
>> We've got the green light from France

2282
03:09:35,600 --> 03:09:37,680
now. They'll provide that transcript. Uh

2283
03:09:37,680 --> 03:09:39,600
there's the complexity that our students

2284
03:09:39,600 --> 03:09:41,040
don't get to choose the courses they

2285
03:09:41,040 --> 03:09:43,600
take, Wilston, France. They mirror what

2286
03:09:43,600 --> 03:09:46,399
their post student is doing. Similarly

2287
03:09:46,399 --> 03:09:47,920
to what our French the French students

2288
03:09:47,920 --> 03:09:50,080
do when they're here. Um we are working

2289
03:09:50,080 --> 03:09:52,080
with the high school there to see can

2290
03:09:52,080 --> 03:09:54,640
they even shuffle a couple of classes if

2291
03:09:54,640 --> 03:09:56,960
they'd like. Um the French academic

2292
03:09:56,960 --> 03:10:00,720
system is incredibly uh rigid, very very

2293
03:10:00,720 --> 03:10:03,279
rigid. Um as is their principal as I

2294
03:10:03,279 --> 03:10:05,920
mentioned. So I think that is less

2295
03:10:05,920 --> 03:10:08,640
likely to happen than like real

2296
03:10:08,640 --> 03:10:10,479
complexities that we all understand here

2297
03:10:10,479 --> 03:10:12,720
of just caps and the number of students

2298
03:10:12,720 --> 03:10:14,399
you know the actual like hours of

2299
03:10:14,399 --> 03:10:16,960
classes mapping up etc. Um but that's

2300
03:10:16,960 --> 03:10:18,319
something we would also love to

2301
03:10:18,319 --> 03:10:20,560
eventually get to a spot where you know

2302
03:10:20,560 --> 03:10:23,680
hey this Italian credit does me no good

2303
03:10:23,680 --> 03:10:25,520
while I'm in France. Can I maybe swap

2304
03:10:25,520 --> 03:10:27,359
that class for something else? So,

2305
03:10:27,359 --> 03:10:29,120
that'll be a longer conversation, but we

2306
03:10:29,120 --> 03:10:30,560
do know from a French high school they

2307
03:10:30,560 --> 03:10:32,160
will issue him a transcript to be able

2308
03:10:32,160 --> 03:10:36,469
to bring back to PCHS.

2309
03:10:36,479 --> 03:10:41,910
» Any other questions?

2310
03:10:41,920 --> 03:10:57,990
Thank you guys.

2311
03:10:58,000 --> 03:10:59,840
» Sorry, Randy. You got to follow.

2312
03:10:59,840 --> 03:11:02,479
>> I didn't want to follow. So, it's all

2313
03:11:02,479 --> 03:11:06,319
right. Um, we're gonna shift things up a

2314
03:11:06,319 --> 03:11:08,640
little bit just because we're so far

2315
03:11:08,640 --> 03:11:10,399
past.

2316
03:11:10,399 --> 03:11:13,600
Um, do we have any go to public comment?

2317
03:11:13,600 --> 03:11:16,240
If anybody here

2318
03:11:16,240 --> 03:11:23,670
public comment

2319
03:11:23,680 --> 03:11:27,439
» just wanted to create that opportunity.

2320
03:11:27,439 --> 03:11:29,439
Someone was waiting. All right. Now

2321
03:11:29,439 --> 03:11:32,160
you're after France.

2322
03:11:32,160 --> 03:11:33,600
got to learn to schedule better.

2323
03:11:33,600 --> 03:11:34,240
>> I'm sorry.

2324
03:11:34,240 --> 03:11:35,760
>> Yeah,

2325
03:11:35,760 --> 03:11:38,560
tough u tough situation. All right, I'm

2326
03:11:38,560 --> 03:11:41,439
going to give you uh this month's just a

2327
03:11:41,439 --> 03:11:43,520
snapshot of where we are budget-wise,

2328
03:11:43,520 --> 03:11:45,040
kind of what went into it. Just some

2329
03:11:45,040 --> 03:11:48,240
high level stuff. Uh and then the

2330
03:11:48,240 --> 03:11:51,200
proposal would be come June. Uh our June

2331
03:11:51,200 --> 03:11:53,279
meeting will adopt the final budget for

2332
03:11:53,279 --> 03:11:55,680
the current year as well as the budget,

2333
03:11:55,680 --> 03:11:58,000
new budget for the following year, 27

2334
03:11:58,000 --> 03:12:00,160
year. And so that's kind of where we're

2335
03:12:00,160 --> 03:12:05,120
at. We do have to post a book. Um,

2336
03:12:05,120 --> 03:12:06,720
and the book's going to be read this

2337
03:12:06,720 --> 03:12:08,319
year. This is we haven't quite changed

2338
03:12:08,319 --> 03:12:10,080
the color. I just actually ran the copy

2339
03:12:10,080 --> 03:12:11,680
and they got the color change for us.

2340
03:12:11,680 --> 03:12:15,279
But, um, we we do have to post this book

2341
03:12:15,279 --> 03:12:18,319
before June 1. So, when we have that

2342
03:12:18,319 --> 03:12:20,640
final draft done, we're relatively

2343
03:12:20,640 --> 03:12:22,479
close. Uh, we'll make sure we send out

2344
03:12:22,479 --> 03:12:23,920
the board members as well for you guys

2345
03:12:23,920 --> 03:12:25,680
to take a look and then please provide

2346
03:12:25,680 --> 03:12:28,240
any feedback. uh it's not a final

2347
03:12:28,240 --> 03:12:30,319
product until we approve it and resume

2348
03:12:30,319 --> 03:12:32,319
it. So

2349
03:12:32,319 --> 03:12:34,000
um going to celebrate the biggest thing

2350
03:12:34,000 --> 03:12:38,950
on the next slide that's no tax increase

2351
03:12:38,960 --> 03:12:41,120
uh Lindsay myself and we we've come

2352
03:12:41,120 --> 03:12:43,600
through we've uh built a budget that uh

2353
03:12:43,600 --> 03:12:45,359
worked through a budget a lot of pieces

2354
03:12:45,359 --> 03:12:47,840
to it that's allowed us to not have a

2355
03:12:47,840 --> 03:12:50,160
tax increase for our local taxpayers.

2356
03:12:50,160 --> 03:12:52,319
That'll be two years in a row. Property

2357
03:12:52,319 --> 03:12:53,920
tax wise I will tell you we will

2358
03:12:53,920 --> 03:12:55,920
anticipate about a 1% growth. We're not

2359
03:12:55,920 --> 03:13:01,200
expecting a lot. Still kind of adjusting from the big

2360
03:13:01,200 --> 03:13:03,359
raises two, three, four years ago and

2361
03:13:03,359 --> 03:13:04,960
assessed value that the county went

2362
03:13:04,960 --> 03:13:06,720
through. Every county went through that

2363
03:13:06,720 --> 03:13:08,960
and so kind of adjusting to that, but uh

2364
03:13:08,960 --> 03:13:11,359
we'll we'll see how the growth comes in.

2365
03:13:11,359 --> 03:13:13,520
Um the property tax information is not

2366
03:13:13,520 --> 03:13:16,000
available to us until June 8th. Our

2367
03:13:16,000 --> 03:13:17,279
county is really pretty good about

2368
03:13:17,279 --> 03:13:19,680
getting that to us on time. So, we

2369
03:13:19,680 --> 03:13:22,000
really won't have any concrete property

2370
03:13:22,000 --> 03:13:24,160
tax information until uh till the next

2371
03:13:24,160 --> 03:13:26,479
meeting. Uh the basic levy rate's not

2372
03:13:26,479 --> 03:13:30,640
set yet. That's the evil rate for

2373
03:13:30,640 --> 03:13:32,560
>> and so that's not set. And then our debt

2374
03:13:32,560 --> 03:13:34,239
service rate will relatively be the

2375
03:13:34,239 --> 03:13:36,080
same. The debt service rate is what pays

2376
03:13:36,080 --> 03:13:38,560
our general obligation bonds does not

2377
03:13:38,560 --> 03:13:40,640
pay the lease revenue bonds and the go

2378
03:13:40,640 --> 03:13:43,359
bonds and that's set based on what our

2379
03:13:43,359 --> 03:13:46,319
interest in principal is for next year

2380
03:13:46,319 --> 03:13:48,399
uh going forward. So just to kind of

2381
03:13:48,399 --> 03:13:50,080
give you an overview of the property tax

2382
03:13:50,080 --> 03:13:51,439
rate history where we've been you can

2383
03:13:51,439 --> 03:13:54,319
see five years ago FY22 we were up in

2384
03:13:54,319 --> 03:13:56,720
the four point range now we're down to

2385
03:13:56,720 --> 03:13:58,720
the three this current year we're at the

2386
03:13:58,720 --> 03:14:00,720
35 range and I anticipate this going

2387
03:14:00,720 --> 03:14:03,040
down a little bit more barring anything

2388
03:14:03,040 --> 03:14:04,960
weird the basic levy I'm assuming the

2389
03:14:04,960 --> 03:14:07,920
basic levy will most most places I think

2390
03:14:07,920 --> 03:14:10,960
assess value so we kind of see a trend

2391
03:14:10,960 --> 03:14:14,239
over there as it as it falls

2392
03:14:14,239 --> 03:14:15,840
these are the rates you have control of

2393
03:14:15,840 --> 03:14:17,680
the first one is the voter local levy

2394
03:14:17,680 --> 03:14:20,560
rate. So that rate is at 518 this year.

2395
03:14:20,560 --> 03:14:22,239
We generally will be placed through the

2396
03:14:22,239 --> 03:14:23,840
same next year. It will ratchet down

2397
03:14:23,840 --> 03:14:27,439
based on the certified tax rate process.

2398
03:14:27,439 --> 03:14:28,880
Uh something you can share with your

2399
03:14:28,880 --> 03:14:31,680
constituents. That's 25% of the allowed

2400
03:14:31,680 --> 03:14:34,560
rate. That's what we charge here. And so

2401
03:14:34,560 --> 03:14:36,239
uh pretty pretty good shape there. The

2402
03:14:36,239 --> 03:14:38,720
other rate is the board local levy that

2403
03:14:38,720 --> 03:14:40,960
you have control over as a board. And

2404
03:14:40,960 --> 03:14:43,680
we're 51% of the allowed rate there. And

2405
03:14:43,680 --> 03:14:46,479
that's based on the current year uh

2406
03:14:46,479 --> 03:14:48,960
rate. I also think that'll ratchet down

2407
03:14:48,960 --> 03:14:51,920
as well. So service levy we kind of

2408
03:14:51,920 --> 03:14:54,239
instead of the same the board does set

2409
03:14:54,239 --> 03:14:56,319
that rate. That's rate set again based

2410
03:14:56,319 --> 03:14:58,000
on principal and interest that's due for

2411
03:14:58,000 --> 03:15:02,239
the geo geo bonds. Um we start the

2412
03:15:02,239 --> 03:15:03,920
budget with student enrollment. So you

2413
03:15:03,920 --> 03:15:07,120
can see here projection wise uh based on

2414
03:15:07,120 --> 03:15:10,160
our latest numbers were 39.94.

2415
03:15:10,160 --> 03:15:12,960
Uh that's a 1.3%

2416
03:15:12,960 --> 03:15:15,520
decrease in current year enrollment.

2417
03:15:15,520 --> 03:15:18,319
We're kind of in that time right now

2418
03:15:18,319 --> 03:15:20,399
where with the open enrollment and how

2419
03:15:20,399 --> 03:15:22,720
many kids have been accepted, how many

2420
03:15:22,720 --> 03:15:24,399
kids will end up not coming, how many

2421
03:15:24,399 --> 03:15:26,720
will come. We're kind of in that area

2422
03:15:26,720 --> 03:15:28,640
where we're a little unsure where that's

2423
03:15:28,640 --> 03:15:31,359
really going to be overall. Uh obviously

2424
03:15:31,359 --> 03:15:33,200
the the students that have been accepted

2425
03:15:33,200 --> 03:15:35,680
within the staff and and and space that

2426
03:15:35,680 --> 03:15:38,560
we have um this number actually would

2427
03:15:38,560 --> 03:15:41,439
only affect us in the new budget year if

2428
03:15:41,439 --> 03:15:44,319
in fact we had growth. If we have growth

2429
03:15:44,319 --> 03:15:47,520
we get that in that year. But otherwise

2430
03:15:47,520 --> 03:15:49,680
this number would not affect us till the

2431
03:15:49,680 --> 03:15:52,399
28th fiscal year. And so that's why I'm

2432
03:15:52,399 --> 03:15:54,000
not real concerned about the student

2433
03:15:54,000 --> 03:15:56,160
enrollment number where we're really at

2434
03:15:56,160 --> 03:15:58,880
here. This is a loss of 55 kids. that

2435
03:15:58,880 --> 03:16:02,080
AVM would actually fund us in 28. So we

2436
03:16:02,080 --> 03:16:04,000
worry more about it after October one to

2437
03:16:04,000 --> 03:16:04,960
see.

2438
03:16:04,960 --> 03:16:07,120
>> But that number does include open

2439
03:16:07,120 --> 03:16:10,239
enrollment is as best guess.

2440
03:16:10,239 --> 03:16:12,640
>> Yes. Based yes. Yeah.

2441
03:16:12,640 --> 03:16:14,160
>> Yeah. I would say without that because

2442
03:16:14,160 --> 03:16:15,840
I've run some numbers over the years

2443
03:16:15,840 --> 03:16:17,760
without the open enrollment I figure it

2444
03:16:17,760 --> 03:16:24,399
probably 50 to 100 lower just based on the trend and how that focus on

2445
03:16:24,399 --> 03:16:26,239
>> the hope is to maintain to stay that

2446
03:16:26,239 --> 03:16:28,479
4049. That's really our hope right now.

2447
03:16:28,479 --> 03:16:31,439
Um and may maybe we'll make that, you

2448
03:16:31,439 --> 03:16:33,840
know, several times. All right. Next

2449
03:16:33,840 --> 03:16:36,479
sheet is our revenues just to give you

2450
03:16:36,479 --> 03:16:39,520
an over overview of those. Uh and this

2451
03:16:39,520 --> 03:16:41,200
is talking just the operational fund.

2452
03:16:41,200 --> 03:16:42,800
We'll talk about the other funds here in

2453
03:16:42,800 --> 03:16:45,680
a minute. Uh from local sources, uh I

2454
03:16:45,680 --> 03:16:47,279
think we we've shared this before.

2455
03:16:47,279 --> 03:16:49,359
Property tax growth 1%. It's about

2456
03:16:49,359 --> 03:16:52,399
650,000. We have been able to repurpose

2457
03:16:52,399 --> 03:16:55,279
existing money in our budget to the tune

2458
03:16:55,279 --> 03:16:58,319
of $2.5 million and then we are using

2459
03:16:58,319 --> 03:17:01,439
some one-time funds of $3.3 million.

2460
03:17:01,439 --> 03:17:04,640
Keep in mind in that 3.3 million 2.5 of

2461
03:17:04,640 --> 03:17:06,720
that was dedicated for doer the doer

2462
03:17:06,720 --> 03:17:09,439
project right previously and so we'll

2463
03:17:09,439 --> 03:17:10,800
show you fund balances and show you

2464
03:17:10,800 --> 03:17:13,359
we're still really healthy o overall

2465
03:17:13,359 --> 03:17:15,600
state sources the 4.2% 2% increase on

2466
03:17:15,600 --> 03:17:18,800
the WPU generates about $700,000 and

2467
03:17:18,800 --> 03:17:20,319
that's just simply an unrestricted

2468
03:17:20,319 --> 03:17:22,399
money. Any restricted money goes into

2469
03:17:22,399 --> 03:17:24,880
those programs. So special ed, CT, those

2470
03:17:24,880 --> 03:17:26,960
types of programs that does not include

2471
03:17:26,960 --> 03:17:29,120
that. We do have on here at Senate Bill

2472
03:17:29,120 --> 03:17:31,840
241 reallocation. So that's the reading

2473
03:17:31,840 --> 03:17:34,319
intervention bill. It came came about.

2474
03:17:34,319 --> 03:17:37,439
We're about $148,000 is our allocation.

2475
03:17:37,439 --> 03:17:39,760
It's there's not a supplant clause in

2476
03:17:39,760 --> 03:17:42,080
that funding. And so we believe a lot of

2477
03:17:42,080 --> 03:17:44,160
that we're offering already and would be

2478
03:17:44,160 --> 03:17:45,680
able to absorb some of that. So that

2479
03:17:45,680 --> 03:17:48,319
would help our budget out. Um obviously

2480
03:17:48,319 --> 03:17:49,840
if that's off just a little bit, it's

2481
03:17:49,840 --> 03:17:51,680
not a deal breaker. So we'd still be

2482
03:17:51,680 --> 03:17:54,239
able to manage that. So total revenue uh

2483
03:17:54,239 --> 03:17:57,120
changes 7.3 million. Keeping in mind

2484
03:17:57,120 --> 03:17:59,120
again we're using 3.3 million in one

2485
03:17:59,120 --> 03:18:01,840
time money from there. Next page shows

2486
03:18:01,840 --> 03:18:03,520
you some of the things uh we're

2487
03:18:03,520 --> 03:18:05,840
proposing to approve operational

2488
03:18:05,840 --> 03:18:08,080
requests. There's been a funding change

2489
03:18:08,080 --> 03:18:10,720
with the Park City Ed Foundation. Uh

2490
03:18:10,720 --> 03:18:12,640
they've got programs that they've

2491
03:18:12,640 --> 03:18:15,359
graciously sponsored for a long time in

2492
03:18:15,359 --> 03:18:17,840
our district. Uh we're trying to offload

2493
03:18:17,840 --> 03:18:20,399
those so it makes room for more programs

2494
03:18:20,399 --> 03:18:22,239
for them. Some of these programs have

2495
03:18:22,239 --> 03:18:24,080
been around for a little while. Uh for

2496
03:18:24,080 --> 03:18:27,279
example, Leninos in action recly or RC

2497
03:18:27,279 --> 03:18:29,520
league, excuse me, debate theater.

2498
03:18:29,520 --> 03:18:30,880
There's some special ed supplies in

2499
03:18:30,880 --> 03:18:32,960
there. So those are things we'll take in

2500
03:18:32,960 --> 03:18:35,359
our operational budget and allow the

2501
03:18:35,359 --> 03:18:37,920
foundation to have that bandwidth to use

2502
03:18:37,920 --> 03:18:41,279
those funds for other other requests.

2503
03:18:41,279 --> 03:18:43,200
Overall, we do have there's two

2504
03:18:43,200 --> 03:18:45,040
elementary visual actually four

2505
03:18:45,040 --> 03:18:47,680
elementary vis visual arts positions on

2506
03:18:47,680 --> 03:18:49,760
here. Two of them we're classifying as

2507
03:18:49,760 --> 03:18:51,760
ongoing funds. Two of them we're

2508
03:18:51,760 --> 03:18:54,399
classifying as one-time funds. So two of

2509
03:18:54,399 --> 03:18:56,560
those will come back next year. Still

2510
03:18:56,560 --> 03:18:58,239
going to be an ongoing position. We're

2511
03:18:58,239 --> 03:18:59,920
not we don't have any intent to cut that

2512
03:18:59,920 --> 03:19:01,200
obviously the next year even though it's

2513
03:19:01,200 --> 03:19:03,600
onetime money. It just gives us a way to

2514
03:19:03,600 --> 03:19:05,359
easily manage the budget a little

2515
03:19:05,359 --> 03:19:07,760
easier. And then if this year comes in

2516
03:19:07,760 --> 03:19:10,239
higher revenue-wise or the new year then

2517
03:19:10,239 --> 03:19:12,399
we we change that to an ongoing budget.

2518
03:19:12,399 --> 03:19:15,359
Right. Overall uh we have budgeted

2519
03:19:15,359 --> 03:19:18,319
$60,000 this year. Superintendent

2520
03:19:18,319 --> 03:19:21,120
Huntsman allocated dollars to each

2521
03:19:21,120 --> 03:19:22,800
school and department for culture

2522
03:19:22,800 --> 03:19:26,560
building. Uh that was $50 per employee.

2523
03:19:26,560 --> 03:19:28,720
uh as well as the administrators as part

2524
03:19:28,720 --> 03:19:31,279
of their administrative uh compensation

2525
03:19:31,279 --> 03:19:34,479
agreement, they received $25 for culture

2526
03:19:34,479 --> 03:19:36,640
building at at the school level. So,

2527
03:19:36,640 --> 03:19:38,160
we're combining those two. We're taking

2528
03:19:38,160 --> 03:19:40,080
the piece from the administrators,

2529
03:19:40,080 --> 03:19:41,520
putting it all in the school supply

2530
03:19:41,520 --> 03:19:43,760
budget, department budgets, and that'll

2531
03:19:43,760 --> 03:19:47,040
be a total of $75. They continue on uh

2532
03:19:47,040 --> 03:19:48,640
with however they want to use it to

2533
03:19:48,640 --> 03:19:50,640
build a culture uh within their

2534
03:19:50,640 --> 03:19:52,479
department. So, you want to comment on

2535
03:19:52,479 --> 03:19:56,000
that one? No, it's just a way to provide

2536
03:19:56,000 --> 03:19:58,960
swag for teachers and staff, a way if

2537
03:19:58,960 --> 03:20:02,080
they want to sponsor a lunch, um,

2538
03:20:02,080 --> 03:20:04,239
however they choose to use it to build

2539
03:20:04,239 --> 03:20:06,319
culture within their buildings or within

2540
03:20:06,319 --> 03:20:07,840
their department, they can do so at

2541
03:20:07,840 --> 03:20:09,920
their discretion.

2542
03:20:09,920 --> 03:20:11,840
>> The nice graduation funding, so the high

2543
03:20:11,840 --> 03:20:14,080
school is graciously paid for graduation

2544
03:20:14,080 --> 03:20:16,239
every single year out of their coffers.

2545
03:20:16,239 --> 03:20:17,680
Uh, we've determined that's a board

2546
03:20:17,680 --> 03:20:20,880
responsibility or pay for that. And so

2547
03:20:20,880 --> 03:20:23,040
they've asked for some reprieve on that.

2548
03:20:23,040 --> 03:20:25,359
We granted that. Uh there were also some

2549
03:20:25,359 --> 03:20:27,120
adjustments during the year, right, that

2550
03:20:27,120 --> 03:20:28,640
contributed to some of that. So we've

2551
03:20:28,640 --> 03:20:30,720
allocated $30,000 for that for

2552
03:20:30,720 --> 03:20:32,640
graduation funding. Drivers ed

2553
03:20:32,640 --> 03:20:34,239
contingency. We'll be the proud owners

2554
03:20:34,239 --> 03:20:36,000
of a driver's ed program next year at

2555
03:20:36,000 --> 03:20:38,479
Park City High School thanks to Tracy

2556
03:20:38,479 --> 03:20:40,239
Fartwood.

2557
03:20:40,239 --> 03:20:44,000
Um and so we put in a contingency there

2558
03:20:44,000 --> 03:20:46,160
as we signed up. It's the first year the

2559
03:20:46,160 --> 03:20:49,200
state has cut money for capital and for

2560
03:20:49,200 --> 03:20:51,600
covering waivers. So that was part of

2561
03:20:51,600 --> 03:20:54,239
the the carrot to say, "Hey, we'll cover

2562
03:20:54,239 --> 03:20:55,520
your capital. We'll recover your

2563
03:20:55,520 --> 03:20:58,080
waiverss," which they've done for years.

2564
03:20:58,080 --> 03:20:59,920
Uh but the legislature took that money

2565
03:20:59,920 --> 03:21:01,760
from them, so they're unable to do that.

2566
03:21:01,760 --> 03:21:03,840
So we've set aside a contingency just in

2567
03:21:03,840 --> 03:21:07,120
case that's needed. We've also um set

2568
03:21:07,120 --> 03:21:10,800
aside $50,000 between school supplies.

2569
03:21:10,800 --> 03:21:12,640
These are things for schools, capital,

2570
03:21:12,640 --> 03:21:14,960
textbook budgets, those types of things.

2571
03:21:14,960 --> 03:21:16,319
since they have more students that come

2572
03:21:16,319 --> 03:21:18,399
in, especially with the open enrollment.

2573
03:21:18,399 --> 03:21:20,239
We'll we'll make them whole on those

2574
03:21:20,239 --> 03:21:22,160
supply budgets. I've also got on here

2575
03:21:22,160 --> 03:21:24,000
some custodial supplies. We're we're

2576
03:21:24,000 --> 03:21:26,239
evaluating that right now. I think we

2577
03:21:26,239 --> 03:21:29,760
may be a little bit under what we're providing some of our

2578
03:21:29,760 --> 03:21:31,040
custodians and they should have some

2579
03:21:31,040 --> 03:21:32,720
more supply money there and we're

2580
03:21:32,720 --> 03:21:34,319
evaluating that especially with the new

2581
03:21:34,319 --> 03:21:37,200
square footage at the schools. So

2582
03:21:37,200 --> 03:21:39,520
attract and retain employees uh medical

2583
03:21:39,520 --> 03:21:41,359
insurance increase equates to about

2584
03:21:41,359 --> 03:21:43,520
1.73%

2585
03:21:43,520 --> 03:21:46,399
uh as the base it's 1.3 million that

2586
03:21:46,399 --> 03:21:47,520
we're taking out of the operation

2587
03:21:47,520 --> 03:21:52,880
account or increases around 1.8. We are changing our benefit manager

2588
03:21:52,880 --> 03:21:55,040
pharmacy benefit manager but we'll

2589
03:21:55,040 --> 03:21:57,760
realize some savings there we believe uh

2590
03:21:57,760 --> 03:21:59,920
as well as we're taking some from fund

2591
03:21:59,920 --> 03:22:01,760
balance in our self insurance fund which

2592
03:22:01,760 --> 03:22:04,640
is still pretty healthy overall. So, uh,

2593
03:22:04,640 --> 03:22:06,160
we were able to navigate through that.

2594
03:22:06,160 --> 03:22:07,760
We had a bad year insurance wise. It's

2595
03:22:07,760 --> 03:22:09,760
not a secret. Uh, you're going to when

2596
03:22:09,760 --> 03:22:11,040
you're selfinsured, you're going to have

2597
03:22:11,040 --> 03:22:12,720
a bad year every four or five years.

2598
03:22:12,720 --> 03:22:14,640
That's just the nature of these. So,

2599
03:22:14,640 --> 03:22:16,319
we're hoping this is the one time and

2600
03:22:16,319 --> 03:22:19,439
not a two time deal. So, uh, staffing

2601
03:22:19,439 --> 03:22:21,439
changes. This is a culmination of a lot

2602
03:22:21,439 --> 03:22:23,520
of different changes, a lot of partial

2603
03:22:23,520 --> 03:22:26,640
FTEs. It includes the arts integration.

2604
03:22:26,640 --> 03:22:28,800
Uh, includes other needed positions that

2605
03:22:28,800 --> 03:22:30,800
are coming in as well as cuts to some

2606
03:22:30,800 --> 03:22:33,279
positions or through attrition. Uh the

2607
03:22:33,279 --> 03:22:36,080
total is 2.45 FTDES that that we're

2608
03:22:36,080 --> 03:22:39,040
saving. It's about $750,000.

2609
03:22:39,040 --> 03:22:40,720
So that's part of the changes that have

2610
03:22:40,720 --> 03:22:46,399
been going on as well. Uh with that we have we have added 75,000 for the

2611
03:22:46,399 --> 03:22:49,600
educator salary adjustment. They did add

2612
03:22:49,600 --> 03:22:52,720
um they did add 3% to that. We typically

2613
03:22:52,720 --> 03:22:55,120
don't get fully funded all the way and

2614
03:22:55,120 --> 03:22:56,479
so we'll build some in. Plus they've

2615
03:22:56,479 --> 03:22:58,160
added nurses to that as well which our

2616
03:22:58,160 --> 03:23:01,439
nurses are already there and and have

2617
03:23:01,439 --> 03:23:03,359
that. We have a workers comp insurance

2618
03:23:03,359 --> 03:23:05,920
increase of 25,000 and then of course

2619
03:23:05,920 --> 03:23:07,680
I've got the doer project down there to

2620
03:23:07,680 --> 03:23:09,520
help us balance because as accountants

2621
03:23:09,520 --> 03:23:12,239
everything's got a balance right so any

2622
03:23:12,239 --> 03:23:20,309
questions on those oper

2623
03:23:20,319 --> 03:23:22,479
list so that started coming before you

2624
03:23:22,479 --> 03:23:25,439
before that so okay last page here is

2625
03:23:25,439 --> 03:23:27,439
our fund balances that really tells

2626
03:23:27,439 --> 03:23:28,960
paints the picture where we're at. So if

2627
03:23:28,960 --> 03:23:30,319
you look on the first line, general

2628
03:23:30,319 --> 03:23:33,359
fund, you can see under the 2425 year,

2629
03:23:33,359 --> 03:23:36,319
we're at 48 48,279.

2630
03:23:36,319 --> 03:23:40,080
2526 year, 455. It's a $2.7 million

2631
03:23:40,080 --> 03:23:42,319
decrease. Remember, we passed a budget

2632
03:23:42,319 --> 03:23:45,040
for this year at a deficit. I think it

2633
03:23:45,040 --> 03:23:47,840
was 2.6 in the original budget. I really

2634
03:23:47,840 --> 03:23:49,680
believe through a year-end process,

2635
03:23:49,680 --> 03:23:51,439
money that's not being spent in certain

2636
03:23:51,439 --> 03:23:53,359
areas, we're going to be closer to break

2637
03:23:53,359 --> 03:23:55,840
even. So, I'm really not concerned about

2638
03:23:55,840 --> 03:23:58,000
that number being down. We do have to

2639
03:23:58,000 --> 03:23:59,920
make sure we cover our full expenses so

2640
03:23:59,920 --> 03:24:01,920
there's not an audit finding. Whatever

2641
03:24:01,920 --> 03:24:04,160
you whatever you approve expense-wise as

2642
03:24:04,160 --> 03:24:06,640
a board is what we can exceed otherwise

2643
03:24:06,640 --> 03:24:08,560
the auditors aren't too keen on that.

2644
03:24:08,560 --> 03:24:11,439
So, uh we we we are aggressive on that

2645
03:24:11,439 --> 03:24:12,720
especially at the end of the year.

2646
03:24:12,720 --> 03:24:14,239
That's why you still see this deficit

2647
03:24:14,239 --> 03:24:15,279
here. I really don't think we're going

2648
03:24:15,279 --> 03:24:18,399
to be there. Uh 26 27 you can see we're

2649
03:24:18,399 --> 03:24:21,040
at 42.1. That difference is at 3.3

2650
03:24:21,040 --> 03:24:23,279
million of one time money. So onetime

2651
03:24:23,279 --> 03:24:24,880
money is really a fancy way of saying

2652
03:24:24,880 --> 03:24:26,880
I'm taking what's in my savings account.

2653
03:24:26,880 --> 03:24:28,640
I'm using that to cover some of these

2654
03:24:28,640 --> 03:24:30,560
expenses moving forward.

2655
03:24:30,560 --> 03:24:33,680
>> So and that includes the do the 2.5

2656
03:24:33,680 --> 03:24:34,160
million.

2657
03:24:34,160 --> 03:24:34,960
>> It does.

2658
03:24:34,960 --> 03:24:37,120
>> So if we didn't have that, we wouldn't

2659
03:24:37,120 --> 03:24:38,479
be taking that much out.

2660
03:24:38,479 --> 03:24:41,040
>> Correct. Yeah. And like any any budget

2661
03:24:41,040 --> 03:24:42,479
going into the year, we'll be aggressive

2662
03:24:42,479 --> 03:24:44,160
with expenses. We'll be a little

2663
03:24:44,160 --> 03:24:45,760
conservative with revenues. It puts us

2664
03:24:45,760 --> 03:24:49,279
in a good place at the end. Uh, and so,

2665
03:24:49,279 --> 03:24:51,840
uh, I will have questions from whoever

2666
03:24:51,840 --> 03:24:53,520
saying, hey, you're worried about this

2667
03:24:53,520 --> 03:24:55,279
deficit, use onetime money. I'm really

2668
03:24:55,279 --> 03:24:56,640
not concerned at this point. We have a

2669
03:24:56,640 --> 03:24:58,399
health department.

2670
03:24:58,399 --> 03:25:00,479
So, that's where we are operationally.

2671
03:25:00,479 --> 03:25:02,399
Capital outlay, you see a big change

2672
03:25:02,399 --> 03:25:05,600
between 26 and 27. That's because of

2673
03:25:05,600 --> 03:25:07,920
construction because we can't exceed

2674
03:25:07,920 --> 03:25:09,439
expenditures. We don't know how many

2675
03:25:09,439 --> 03:25:11,040
draws we'll have between now and the end

2676
03:25:11,040 --> 03:25:13,200
of the year for these projects going on.

2677
03:25:13,200 --> 03:25:15,520
Uh so we have to cover those expenses in

2678
03:25:15,520 --> 03:25:17,120
two fiscal years in the beginning and

2679
03:25:17,120 --> 03:25:19,359
that we adjust once the year starts and

2680
03:25:19,359 --> 03:25:21,680
we know the prior year in closes. So the

2681
03:25:21,680 --> 03:25:24,880
big change there you see is really the

2682
03:25:24,880 --> 03:25:26,800
construction money that's coming from

2683
03:25:26,800 --> 03:25:29,359
the bonds that that we passed previously

2684
03:25:29,359 --> 03:25:31,120
and other money that were put in there.

2685
03:25:31,120 --> 03:25:34,080
So again not concerning overall that 21

2686
03:25:34,080 --> 03:25:36,479
million that's in the 2627

2687
03:25:36,479 --> 03:25:39,040
projected fund balance would be totally

2688
03:25:39,040 --> 03:25:40,880
unrestricted money. We will set aside

2689
03:25:40,880 --> 03:25:42,880
some money for TUR. We're going to start

2690
03:25:42,880 --> 03:25:44,560
setting aside money for church going

2691
03:25:44,560 --> 03:25:47,200
forward. So as these fields and do those

2692
03:25:47,200 --> 03:25:48,800
have to be replaced in the future, we'll

2693
03:25:48,800 --> 03:25:51,120
have money set aside for that instead of

2694
03:25:51,120 --> 03:25:54,000
just steal from that current allocation.

2695
03:25:54,000 --> 03:25:57,120
Overall debt service, this uh is showing

2696
03:25:57,120 --> 03:25:59,520
up a little bit in the fund. Uh debt

2697
03:25:59,520 --> 03:26:01,120
service was a new thing until we had a

2698
03:26:01,120 --> 03:26:02,720
general obligation bond here in Park

2699
03:26:02,720 --> 03:26:05,040
City. And so what we typically like to

2700
03:26:05,040 --> 03:26:07,040
do with the debt service fund, we

2701
03:26:07,040 --> 03:26:08,960
typically have a payment due in August

2702
03:26:08,960 --> 03:26:11,279
or September, excuse me, September,

2703
03:26:11,279 --> 03:26:13,279
whatever that payment is in September

2704
03:26:13,279 --> 03:26:14,880
because we haven't received our property

2705
03:26:14,880 --> 03:26:17,359
taxes yet. We like to have fund balance

2706
03:26:17,359 --> 03:26:19,840
available to pay that September payment.

2707
03:26:19,840 --> 03:26:22,000
And so slowly, gradually, we'll we'll

2708
03:26:22,000 --> 03:26:24,319
build that up. Uh we're probably four or

2709
03:26:24,319 --> 03:26:26,000
five years away from having that totally

2710
03:26:26,000 --> 03:26:28,000
built up, but we'll let that build up

2711
03:26:28,000 --> 03:26:29,439
little by little until we get to that

2712
03:26:29,439 --> 03:26:32,000
honest pain. So that's why you see a

2713
03:26:32,000 --> 03:26:35,520
plus there. Food service um we show a

2714
03:26:35,520 --> 03:26:40,239
loss in food service right now. We are contributing money uh to food

2715
03:26:40,239 --> 03:26:42,560
service from the operation program. And

2716
03:26:42,560 --> 03:26:44,640
then the the other one that's got the

2717
03:26:44,640 --> 03:26:46,479
negative there is the self insurance

2718
03:26:46,479 --> 03:26:48,399
that's due to the 18% increase. We're

2719
03:26:48,399 --> 03:26:50,080
taking some fund balance of the self

2720
03:26:50,080 --> 03:26:52,960
insurance fund. Um and so that's that's

2721
03:26:52,960 --> 03:26:54,720
again where our fund balance is healthy

2722
03:26:54,720 --> 03:26:57,760
there. So we're concerned about

2723
03:26:57,760 --> 03:27:01,520
and that's where we're at right now. us

2724
03:27:01,520 --> 03:27:03,600
>> and blessings

2725
03:27:03,600 --> 03:27:12,309
not as friends. Sorry.

2726
03:27:12,319 --> 03:27:15,840
» Um I know that was so much work to cut

2727
03:27:15,840 --> 03:27:19,439
that $2.5 million

2728
03:27:19,439 --> 03:27:23,600
a lot of choose to climb and find puzzle

2729
03:27:23,600 --> 03:27:24,880
pieces that

2730
03:27:24,880 --> 03:27:28,160
>> Thank you. Thank you.

2731
03:27:28,160 --> 03:27:31,200
I'm going to speak quickly, okay, to

2732
03:27:31,200 --> 03:27:34,239
Friday release times. Uh, we would like

2733
03:27:34,239 --> 03:27:37,359
to propose an adjustment to all four

2734
03:27:37,359 --> 03:27:41,120
elementary release times on Fridays only

2735
03:27:41,120 --> 03:27:43,520
as well as Eert Hill. There would be no

2736
03:27:43,520 --> 03:27:47,040
change to Park City High School. Um,

2737
03:27:47,040 --> 03:27:49,439
we're not quite sure how we landed on

2738
03:27:49,439 --> 03:27:52,399
these Friday release times previously.

2739
03:27:52,399 --> 03:27:56,640
My best guess is several years precoid.

2740
03:27:56,640 --> 03:27:58,960
Um the high school had Monday early

2741
03:27:58,960 --> 03:28:01,600
release and Akran Elementary had Friday

2742
03:28:01,600 --> 03:28:05,040
early release and then for a year or so

2743
03:28:05,040 --> 03:28:07,439
the high school had Monday and Friday

2744
03:28:07,439 --> 03:28:10,239
early release and then we converted to

2745
03:28:10,239 --> 03:28:13,040
all Friday early release. By shifting

2746
03:28:13,040 --> 03:28:16,160
these release times, it allows

2747
03:28:16,160 --> 03:28:19,040
elementary schools to release at 1210

2748
03:28:19,040 --> 03:28:22,000
instead of 12:30. And then it allows

2749
03:28:22,000 --> 03:28:25,520
Echer Hill to release at 12:50 versus

2750
03:28:25,520 --> 03:28:29,359
135. So, it's getting 20 minutes back uh

2751
03:28:29,359 --> 03:28:32,160
for planning and prep time for our

2752
03:28:32,160 --> 03:28:35,920
elementary teachers and 35 minutes of

2753
03:28:35,920 --> 03:28:38,800
prep time for our Echo Hill students.

2754
03:28:38,800 --> 03:28:41,279
Our bus drivers need approximately 40

2755
03:28:41,279 --> 03:28:44,479
minutes between each school release

2756
03:28:44,479 --> 03:28:48,160
time. That is why it is staggered.

2757
03:28:48,160 --> 03:28:50,239
What this will do, it will provide

2758
03:28:50,239 --> 03:28:53,439
approximately 11 additional hours to

2759
03:28:53,439 --> 03:28:55,920
elementary staff over the course of the

2760
03:28:55,920 --> 03:28:59,279
school year and an additional 19 hours

2761
03:28:59,279 --> 03:29:02,160
to our middle school staff. Uh so we

2762
03:29:02,160 --> 03:29:04,399
have worked with transportation as well

2763
03:29:04,399 --> 03:29:06,239
as child nutrition and our community

2764
03:29:06,239 --> 03:29:09,040
partners. there is no negative impact on

2765
03:29:09,040 --> 03:29:11,520
the services that they provide or afford

2766
03:29:11,520 --> 03:29:14,319
our students. So my recommendation which

2767
03:29:14,319 --> 03:29:17,359
this is a decision item later would be

2768
03:29:17,359 --> 03:29:20,479
to adopt these new release times for EC

2769
03:29:20,479 --> 03:29:23,760
Eertale and all four elementary schools

2770
03:29:23,760 --> 03:29:26,239
Friday release times only. We are not

2771
03:29:26,239 --> 03:29:30,790
touching Monday through Thursday.

2772
03:29:30,800 --> 03:29:32,239
» Are the parents aware of this at the

2773
03:29:32,239 --> 03:29:34,560
elementary school level?

2774
03:29:34,560 --> 03:29:38,080
>> Not yet. uh this would be shared. Um

2775
03:29:38,080 --> 03:29:40,960
anecdotally we spoke to a couple of

2776
03:29:40,960 --> 03:29:43,279
parents and just what impact might this

2777
03:29:43,279 --> 03:29:46,239
have. The biggest concern was having no

2778
03:29:46,239 --> 03:29:48,080
change to the high school because oftent

2779
03:29:48,080 --> 03:29:50,319
times our high school students are

2780
03:29:50,319 --> 03:29:52,800
caring for their younger siblings. Uh we

2781
03:29:52,800 --> 03:29:55,520
will still provide afterare and our all

2782
03:29:55,520 --> 03:29:57,600
of our afterchool programs. None of that

2783
03:29:57,600 --> 03:29:59,840
programming is going to change. It is

2784
03:29:59,840 --> 03:30:02,560
simply shifting the release time to

2785
03:30:02,560 --> 03:30:04,399
earlier for elementary and middle

2786
03:30:04,399 --> 03:30:06,239
school. That would be my only concern.

2787
03:30:06,239 --> 03:30:09,439
We're not causing issues for parents

2788
03:30:09,439 --> 03:30:12,080
with inflexible schedules. I know it's

2789
03:30:12,080 --> 03:30:17,269
not a big change, but

2790
03:30:17,279 --> 03:30:20,000
» and we certainly could postpone the

2791
03:30:20,000 --> 03:30:23,279
decision and push this out to community

2792
03:30:23,279 --> 03:30:25,840
first and get some feedback and then

2793
03:30:25,840 --> 03:30:28,560
make the decision in June.

2794
03:30:28,560 --> 03:30:31,520
I think that would be know that Rick

2795
03:30:31,520 --> 03:30:33,840
considered that because

2796
03:30:33,840 --> 03:30:36,319
>> some kids don't go to our after school

2797
03:30:36,319 --> 03:30:38,720
program other after school program is

2798
03:30:38,720 --> 03:30:41,840
that task for them or how are we going

2799
03:30:41,840 --> 03:30:43,520
to get there?

2800
03:30:43,520 --> 03:30:45,600
>> Yeah, we will uh push this communication

2801
03:30:45,600 --> 03:30:47,680
out ask for some public input before

2802
03:30:47,680 --> 03:30:49,840
making a decision. We'll just delay the

2803
03:30:49,840 --> 03:30:54,309
decision to June

2804
03:30:54,319 --> 03:30:55,520
for that.

2805
03:30:55,520 --> 03:30:57,439
>> Yes. Um because one thing we

2806
03:30:57,439 --> 03:30:59,120
consistently hear, it doesn't matter if

2807
03:30:59,120 --> 03:31:00,880
you're at elementary or high school, is

2808
03:31:00,880 --> 03:31:02,880
we need more time. That we do not have

2809
03:31:02,880 --> 03:31:09,110
enough time to plan.

2810
03:31:09,120 --> 03:31:11,439
» Okay, next up we've got middle school

2811
03:31:11,439 --> 03:31:14,160
supporters. We've got Chris Bear and

2812
03:31:14,160 --> 03:31:27,510
Max.

2813
03:31:27,520 --> 03:31:29,439
Uh so what we're going to do is we're

2814
03:31:29,439 --> 03:31:32,000
going to go over uh kind of what our

2815
03:31:32,000 --> 03:31:34,000
mission is and and what it's been over

2816
03:31:34,000 --> 03:31:36,640
the last year. Uh the success that we

2817
03:31:36,640 --> 03:31:40,399
had this year in our first year and then

2818
03:31:40,399 --> 03:31:42,160
go into what our goals are moving

2819
03:31:42,160 --> 03:31:45,040
forward uh including a partnership with

2820
03:31:45,040 --> 03:31:47,359
City Week uh and the great things that

2821
03:31:47,359 --> 03:31:52,150
they're going to help build for us.

2822
03:31:52,160 --> 03:31:54,239
So our mission is to incorporate

2823
03:31:54,239 --> 03:31:56,640
education based athletics to foster the

2824
03:31:56,640 --> 03:31:59,279
holistic development of students by

2825
03:31:59,279 --> 03:32:01,840
prioritizing wellness, ensuring

2826
03:32:01,840 --> 03:32:03,920
inclusion and supporting academic

2827
03:32:03,920 --> 03:32:06,800
success for all students who have the

2828
03:32:06,800 --> 03:32:09,279
desire to compete. We want to make sure

2829
03:32:09,279 --> 03:32:12,640
that every student has the ability to

2830
03:32:12,640 --> 03:32:15,520
play a sport if they want to. Right? Uh

2831
03:32:15,520 --> 03:32:16,880
clubs are getting more and more

2832
03:32:16,880 --> 03:32:21,760
expansive. Um and less reachable for

2833
03:32:21,760 --> 03:32:23,520
every single family in our community.

2834
03:32:23,520 --> 03:32:26,000
So, if we can create an opportunity at

2835
03:32:26,000 --> 03:32:29,120
our schools uh to give every kid an

2836
03:32:29,120 --> 03:32:31,920
opportunity to play organized sports,

2837
03:32:31,920 --> 03:32:33,920
we're doing something pretty special.

2838
03:32:33,920 --> 03:32:36,239
Um, not many school districts in our

2839
03:32:36,239 --> 03:32:38,160
state are doing this and looking for

2840
03:32:38,160 --> 03:32:40,560
ways whether it's intercolastically or

2841
03:32:40,560 --> 03:32:43,840
interally uh to get kids involved at the

2842
03:32:43,840 --> 03:32:47,040
middle school level.

2843
03:32:47,040 --> 03:32:50,160
So this year uh we had two sports that

2844
03:32:50,160 --> 03:32:52,319
we ran. We originally had a plan of

2845
03:32:52,319 --> 03:32:54,319
trying to talk to other schools in the

2846
03:32:54,319 --> 03:32:58,319
Wasach back about intercolastic sports

2847
03:32:58,319 --> 03:33:00,000
didn't work out that well. We reached

2848
03:33:00,000 --> 03:33:02,800
out to uh three or four other school

2849
03:33:02,800 --> 03:33:05,120
districts and we got very little

2850
03:33:05,120 --> 03:33:06,960
feedback from them. They just said it

2851
03:33:06,960 --> 03:33:09,359
wasn't something that they were needing

2852
03:33:09,359 --> 03:33:13,040
currently. So we pivoted. Uh we had a

2853
03:33:13,040 --> 03:33:14,880
lot of conversations between Jamie and I

2854
03:33:14,880 --> 03:33:16,399
in the athletics office. What are we

2855
03:33:16,399 --> 03:33:17,439
going to do? How are we going to make

2856
03:33:17,439 --> 03:33:20,640
this work? And um we decided an inter

2857
03:33:20,640 --> 03:33:22,640
mural program was the best thing that we

2858
03:33:22,640 --> 03:33:25,279
could do this year. Uh so we did co-ed

2859
03:33:25,279 --> 03:33:28,479
basketball at the one and will be uh

2860
03:33:28,479 --> 03:33:30,640
boys and girls basketball coaches. They

2861
03:33:30,640 --> 03:33:32,000
said, "Let's get them together. Let's

2862
03:33:32,000 --> 03:33:33,840
have them competing against each other."

2863
03:33:33,840 --> 03:33:36,560
The girls were incredible. Uh much

2864
03:33:36,560 --> 03:33:38,000
better than the boys, even though they

2865
03:33:38,000 --> 03:33:40,319
were very good, too. Uh we had 55

2866
03:33:40,319 --> 03:33:41,840
student athletes, seventh and eighth

2867
03:33:41,840 --> 03:33:44,000
graders. They spent five weeks with

2868
03:33:44,000 --> 03:33:48,560
seven incredible uh district employees,

2869
03:33:48,560 --> 03:33:51,120
uh Ever Hill and high school teachers

2870
03:33:51,120 --> 03:33:53,760
who came out and uh supported these

2871
03:33:53,760 --> 03:33:55,520
kids.

2872
03:33:55,520 --> 03:33:57,920
Uh we culminated the entire season with

2873
03:33:57,920 --> 03:34:01,040
a really cool uh tournament at the high

2874
03:34:01,040 --> 03:34:03,520
school where we had three games going on

2875
03:34:03,520 --> 03:34:06,080
at one time. We had the high school

2876
03:34:06,080 --> 03:34:08,239
players and the high school coaches uh

2877
03:34:08,239 --> 03:34:09,840
refereeing the games. We had Scott

2878
03:34:09,840 --> 03:34:13,439
Chester in the big gym uh announcing the

2879
03:34:13,439 --> 03:34:16,160
game as well as our cheerleaders were

2880
03:34:16,160 --> 03:34:18,000
there to support them in the main gym.

2881
03:34:18,000 --> 03:34:20,239
So, it gave that high school experience.

2882
03:34:20,239 --> 03:34:22,399
Uh tons and tons of feedback from

2883
03:34:22,399 --> 03:34:23,760
parents saying how cool of an

2884
03:34:23,760 --> 03:34:25,760
experience, how much the kids liked it.

2885
03:34:25,760 --> 03:34:28,239
Uh then we tried to make sure that we

2886
03:34:28,239 --> 03:34:30,000
were not taking field space in the

2887
03:34:30,000 --> 03:34:33,920
spring from other community programs. Uh

2888
03:34:33,920 --> 03:34:36,800
so we stayed in the gym. We did team

2889
03:34:36,800 --> 03:34:39,120
handball which is not a sanctioned sport

2890
03:34:39,120 --> 03:34:40,960
in the state of Utah where we really

2891
03:34:40,960 --> 03:34:44,960
played uh that ball but

2892
03:34:44,960 --> 03:34:49,030
anybody know

2893
03:34:49,040 --> 03:34:50,080
everybody that it's team

2894
03:34:50,080 --> 03:34:53,359
>> handball team not handball. So uh we had

2895
03:34:53,359 --> 03:34:55,920
35 kids sign up which is not a surprise

2896
03:34:55,920 --> 03:34:57,920
that not as many kids signed up. It's a

2897
03:34:57,920 --> 03:35:01,520
new sport not many people know. Um, but

2898
03:35:01,520 --> 03:35:05,359
the uh the three coaches that we had uh

2899
03:35:05,359 --> 03:35:08,160
said how much the kids loved it, how

2900
03:35:08,160 --> 03:35:09,680
they were into it, how they were just

2901
03:35:09,680 --> 03:35:11,120
wanting to learn how to play and then

2902
03:35:11,120 --> 03:35:12,319
they were competing against each other

2903
03:35:12,319 --> 03:35:14,080
and got real into it and real

2904
03:35:14,080 --> 03:35:15,760
competitive. So that's that's a huge

2905
03:35:15,760 --> 03:35:19,520
plus that we had what nine kids able to

2906
03:35:19,520 --> 03:35:21,760
play a sport at the middle school level

2907
03:35:21,760 --> 03:35:25,910
at an inter mural level.

2908
03:35:25,920 --> 03:35:28,960
So our goals moving forward are a more

2909
03:35:28,960 --> 03:35:32,000
robust programming for middle school. We

2910
03:35:32,000 --> 03:35:34,560
wanted to make sure that we add some

2911
03:35:34,560 --> 03:35:36,479
intercolastic options where they are

2912
03:35:36,479 --> 03:35:38,479
playing other schools and competing

2913
03:35:38,479 --> 03:35:40,399
against other schools in whatever way we

2914
03:35:40,399 --> 03:35:42,560
could. Again, we are struggling to get

2915
03:35:42,560 --> 03:35:47,920
the Wasach back to jump on board, but we are going to get them at some point

2916
03:35:47,920 --> 03:35:50,479
hopefully. Uh we are going to add more

2917
03:35:50,479 --> 03:35:53,840
inter murals as well. Um the question I

2918
03:35:53,840 --> 03:35:55,600
get all the time from parents is can my

2919
03:35:55,600 --> 03:35:57,279
sixth grader play? He he wants to play

2920
03:35:57,279 --> 03:36:00,239
so bad. Uh we had not allowed sixth

2921
03:36:00,239 --> 03:36:01,760
graders to play because there is

2922
03:36:01,760 --> 03:36:03,680
somewhat of a leveling. Seventh and

2923
03:36:03,680 --> 03:36:05,200
eighth graders typically play together.

2924
03:36:05,200 --> 03:36:07,439
Five to six usually play together in

2925
03:36:07,439 --> 03:36:09,439
sports. So we didn't want to put a sixth

2926
03:36:09,439 --> 03:36:12,880
grader who looks like might still be in

2927
03:36:12,880 --> 03:36:14,640
elementary school and an eighth grader

2928
03:36:14,640 --> 03:36:16,560
who looks like he's ready to walk into

2929
03:36:16,560 --> 03:36:19,760
you know the varsity level. So, uh, so

2930
03:36:19,760 --> 03:36:21,439
we wanted to make sure that we are

2931
03:36:21,439 --> 03:36:23,520
offering sixth graders an opportunity to

2932
03:36:23,520 --> 03:36:25,760
participate in some of the non-cont

2933
03:36:25,760 --> 03:36:28,319
activities for leveled programming,

2934
03:36:28,319 --> 03:36:30,399
which is where CityB will come in a

2935
03:36:30,399 --> 03:36:32,960
little bit. And we also want to make

2936
03:36:32,960 --> 03:36:35,279
sure that we can partner in in order to

2937
03:36:35,279 --> 03:36:37,520
offer as many opportunities for kids to

2938
03:36:37,520 --> 03:36:39,680
participate. And City League has done an

2939
03:36:39,680 --> 03:36:42,000
incredible job in our community at

2940
03:36:42,000 --> 03:36:46,720
building up programming for kids. Uh and we just want to make sure that we

2941
03:36:46,720 --> 03:36:50,319
bridge that gap uh that exists which is

2942
03:36:50,319 --> 03:36:52,399
sixth grade currently uh but really

2943
03:36:52,399 --> 03:36:53,760
seventh and eighth grade too where

2944
03:36:53,760 --> 03:36:56,239
there's no like sports in our community

2945
03:36:56,239 --> 03:36:59,040
that allows them to participate. So uh

2946
03:36:59,040 --> 03:37:00,960
partnering with city to make sure that

2947
03:37:00,960 --> 03:37:03,920
we we get those kids as well close that

2948
03:37:03,920 --> 03:37:07,760
gap. Uh so here's the idea for next

2949
03:37:07,760 --> 03:37:09,680
year. We'll have soccer with city

2950
03:37:09,680 --> 03:37:11,359
league. City league is already doing an

2951
03:37:11,359 --> 03:37:12,960
incredible job in our community with

2952
03:37:12,960 --> 03:37:14,960
soccer. So, we're going to partner with

2953
03:37:14,960 --> 03:37:17,520
them. Uh cross country, we are going to

2954
03:37:17,520 --> 03:37:19,840
add cross country. We have two Edgar

2955
03:37:19,840 --> 03:37:22,880
Hill teachers who are ready to go uh and

2956
03:37:22,880 --> 03:37:26,319
do cross country. They will do uh at

2957
03:37:26,319 --> 03:37:28,880
this point the idea is three meets

2958
03:37:28,880 --> 03:37:31,920
against other programs in the state. Uh

2959
03:37:31,920 --> 03:37:34,239
Wasach just put up that they are having

2960
03:37:34,239 --> 03:37:37,359
a cross country program running through

2961
03:37:37,359 --> 03:37:39,359
the summer. So, we'll start after Labor

2962
03:37:39,359 --> 03:37:44,239
Day. Uh and then we'll do uh a couple of

2963
03:37:44,239 --> 03:37:47,520
uh runs in Utah County at this point.

2964
03:37:47,520 --> 03:37:49,439
That's that's the hope is is get those

2965
03:37:49,439 --> 03:37:52,800
family participate in those uh runs as

2966
03:37:52,800 --> 03:37:55,760
well as uh we have a run at uh Round

2967
03:37:55,760 --> 03:37:58,319
Valley uh that the high school puts on

2968
03:37:58,319 --> 03:38:00,720
and we'll have them participate in that.

2969
03:38:00,720 --> 03:38:02,319
And then we also want to make sure that

2970
03:38:02,319 --> 03:38:04,479
we are offering flag football to girls

2971
03:38:04,479 --> 03:38:06,880
to

2972
03:38:06,880 --> 03:38:08,560
increase the number of student athletes

2973
03:38:08,560 --> 03:38:11,040
that are signing up for that as we see

2974
03:38:11,040 --> 03:38:15,680
that as an emerging sport with the USAA.

2975
03:38:15,680 --> 03:38:17,600
>> I bet that was offered this year.

2976
03:38:17,600 --> 03:38:19,600
>> It is offered this year not to the not

2977
03:38:19,600 --> 03:38:21,359
to the middle schools but to the high

2978
03:38:21,359 --> 03:38:21,920
school

2979
03:38:21,920 --> 03:38:23,920
>> as a club as a club.

2980
03:38:23,920 --> 03:38:26,720
>> Yeah. But we believe it's highly likely

2981
03:38:26,720 --> 03:38:29,760
that it'll be the next sanction by Utah

2982
03:38:29,760 --> 03:38:33,520
High School association.

2983
03:38:33,520 --> 03:38:35,120
>> I just I'm sorry. I have two kids at

2984
03:38:35,120 --> 03:38:38,239
Echard and so my sixth grade daughter I

2985
03:38:38,239 --> 03:38:40,160
was trying to encourage. I thought there

2986
03:38:40,160 --> 03:38:43,750
was something.

2987
03:38:43,760 --> 03:38:47,349
Okay.

2988
03:38:47,359 --> 03:38:49,600
» Go back.

2989
03:38:49,600 --> 03:38:52,000
Would

2990
03:38:52,000 --> 03:38:53,439
cross country be something that the

2991
03:38:53,439 --> 03:38:54,720
sixth graders could do?

2992
03:38:54,720 --> 03:38:56,960
>> Yes. Y So cross country would be sixth

2993
03:38:56,960 --> 03:38:58,239
grade.

2994
03:38:58,239 --> 03:39:00,880
>> Um so in the winter we'll do basketball

2995
03:39:00,880 --> 03:39:03,600
again. Uh city league will help us run

2996
03:39:03,600 --> 03:39:06,800
that. Wrestling. Dan Gallery uh at

2997
03:39:06,800 --> 03:39:09,279
Hecker Hill really wants to try and

2998
03:39:09,279 --> 03:39:11,359
build a wrestling program and continue

2999
03:39:11,359 --> 03:39:13,200
to add some recruitment into the high

3000
03:39:13,200 --> 03:39:15,279
school by showing them how to do it at

3001
03:39:15,279 --> 03:39:18,800
the middle school level. Um, so we're

3002
03:39:18,800 --> 03:39:20,960
looking at the option of of putting that

3003
03:39:20,960 --> 03:39:22,960
together. Essports is something else

3004
03:39:22,960 --> 03:39:25,359
that we're considering trying to put on.

3005
03:39:25,359 --> 03:39:28,720
Um, and uh, just earlier today, someone

3006
03:39:28,720 --> 03:39:30,880
reached out from Eker Hill saying that

3007
03:39:30,880 --> 03:39:32,160
they would be willing to run a

3008
03:39:32,160 --> 03:39:34,479
cheerleading program so we could we

3009
03:39:34,479 --> 03:39:35,520
could add cheerleading.

3010
03:39:35,520 --> 03:39:36,800
>> I think we need a coach at the high

3011
03:39:36,800 --> 03:39:37,279
school.

3012
03:39:37,279 --> 03:39:39,359
>> No, we got one. We got one.

3013
03:39:39,359 --> 03:39:42,239
>> Okay. Don't post it.

3014
03:39:42,239 --> 03:39:42,399
You

3015
03:39:42,399 --> 03:39:45,520
>> take that down. Uh, yeah. But so we uh

3016
03:39:45,520 --> 03:39:47,920
we have we have two teachers at Eer Hill

3017
03:39:47,920 --> 03:39:49,279
who want to run that cheerleading

3018
03:39:49,279 --> 03:39:50,560
program. So that could be a great

3019
03:39:50,560 --> 03:39:52,720
theater for the high school uh which

3020
03:39:52,720 --> 03:39:55,040
would be

3021
03:39:55,040 --> 03:39:56,960
>> um

3022
03:39:56,960 --> 03:39:59,359
uh spring sports baseball and softball.

3023
03:39:59,359 --> 03:40:01,279
City league said that they wanted to try

3024
03:40:01,279 --> 03:40:03,680
and provide that for us and again

3025
03:40:03,680 --> 03:40:07,279
bringing in handball um with uh coach

3026
03:40:07,279 --> 03:40:11,040
Tori and coach Mayor running that. So

3027
03:40:11,040 --> 03:40:13,680
that's what we have moving forward. So,

3028
03:40:13,680 --> 03:40:15,840
uh, we are trying to partner with City

3029
03:40:15,840 --> 03:40:17,680
League. So, City League is here. Max is

3030
03:40:17,680 --> 03:40:19,600
here to, uh, kind of give an overview of

3031
03:40:19,600 --> 03:40:21,120
what they're doing and how they can

3032
03:40:21,120 --> 03:40:23,760
provide for our districts.

3033
03:40:23,760 --> 03:40:25,520
>> Awesome.

3034
03:40:25,520 --> 03:40:27,120
Great job, Chris. And thank you. Thank

3035
03:40:27,120 --> 03:40:29,359
you all for for having us in. Um, just

3036
03:40:29,359 --> 03:40:30,640
first I want to start by just saying

3037
03:40:30,640 --> 03:40:32,080
thank you to everyone for for what you

3038
03:40:32,080 --> 03:40:34,239
do. The Park City School District is the

3039
03:40:34,239 --> 03:40:35,840
main reason my family moved to Park

3040
03:40:35,840 --> 03:40:37,680
City. We have three kids uh, in the

3041
03:40:37,680 --> 03:40:40,319
district and are so happy, super excited

3042
03:40:40,319 --> 03:40:42,960
about everything. Um, so let me just

3043
03:40:42,960 --> 03:40:45,200
tell a little bit about what we've done

3044
03:40:45,200 --> 03:40:47,840
in the past year. Um, we had over 800

3045
03:40:47,840 --> 03:40:51,120
athletes in in our first full school

3046
03:40:51,120 --> 03:40:53,520
year. Um, and just to kind of paint the

3047
03:40:53,520 --> 03:40:55,439
picture, uh, what happens a lot of

3048
03:40:55,439 --> 03:40:57,040
times, you know, with young families,

3049
03:40:57,040 --> 03:40:59,920
you start with bas do intro to sport,

3050
03:40:59,920 --> 03:41:02,640
maybe do some soccer, some basketball,

3051
03:41:02,640 --> 03:41:05,279
little dribblers. Um, then, you know,

3052
03:41:05,279 --> 03:41:07,200
you start to say, okay, my kid really

3053
03:41:07,200 --> 03:41:09,279
enjoys this. What's the next level? The

3054
03:41:09,279 --> 03:41:10,720
next level most typically club in

3055
03:41:10,720 --> 03:41:14,960
America um if you have kids felt this

3056
03:41:14,960 --> 03:41:17,120
possibly um next thing you know you have

3057
03:41:17,120 --> 03:41:18,560
eight-year-olds and you're traveling to

3058
03:41:18,560 --> 03:41:20,800
Mosqu Nevada ne Nevada Nevada you're in

3059
03:41:20,800 --> 03:41:22,560
Boise Idaho you're at tournaments with

3060
03:41:22,560 --> 03:41:24,160
three kids all over the country I was a

3061
03:41:24,160 --> 03:41:26,560
club coach for multiple sports and and

3062
03:41:26,560 --> 03:41:28,080
you know we never had dinner together it

3063
03:41:28,080 --> 03:41:30,239
was you know we were in this beautiful

3064
03:41:30,239 --> 03:41:32,000
mountain town to mountain bike and ski

3065
03:41:32,000 --> 03:41:33,840
and we didn't really we weren't ever

3066
03:41:33,840 --> 03:41:35,760
here for the weekends

3067
03:41:35,760 --> 03:41:38,319
so u some parents got together we were

3068
03:41:38,319 --> 03:41:40,080
club coaches and we said, "Hey, look,

3069
03:41:40,080 --> 03:41:42,239
we're in Mosquite, Nevada at a

3070
03:41:42,239 --> 03:41:44,080
tournament and the two Park City teams

3071
03:41:44,080 --> 03:41:45,200
are playing against each other and then

3072
03:41:45,200 --> 03:41:46,800
the other two teams are like Heber and

3073
03:41:46,800 --> 03:41:49,920
Salt Lake. So, why are we leaving our

3074
03:41:49,920 --> 03:41:52,800
town, much less our state to to do

3075
03:41:52,800 --> 03:41:54,640
this?" Um, we thought that there had to

3076
03:41:54,640 --> 03:41:55,840
be a better way. We launched with

3077
03:41:55,840 --> 03:41:58,319
baseball last year. There were 75 kids.

3078
03:41:58,319 --> 03:42:01,520
Um, we went into soccer. We had 330 kids

3079
03:42:01,520 --> 03:42:05,200
from first to fifth grade. Um, 16 teams,

3080
03:42:05,200 --> 03:42:08,160
just a a really high level of play. We

3081
03:42:08,160 --> 03:42:11,439
had over 42 soccer coaches. Some were

3082
03:42:11,439 --> 03:42:13,760
professionals from Spain, ex- division

3083
03:42:13,760 --> 03:42:15,359
one athletes. And we thought that, you

3084
03:42:15,359 --> 03:42:18,880
know, can we have, you know, the cross

3085
03:42:18,880 --> 03:42:21,520
between wreck and club, but all local in

3086
03:42:21,520 --> 03:42:24,239
town, always in Park City. So, we have

3087
03:42:24,239 --> 03:42:26,800
paid trained coaches and our whole

3088
03:42:26,800 --> 03:42:29,760
development philosophy is collusion, no

3089
03:42:29,760 --> 03:42:32,160
cut, and fun. I mean, sports are

3090
03:42:32,160 --> 03:42:33,359
supposed to be fun. What's the point of

3091
03:42:33,359 --> 03:42:35,760
these sports is so that when you're in

3092
03:42:35,760 --> 03:42:37,520
your 40s or 50s and the new sport of

3093
03:42:37,520 --> 03:42:39,520
pickle ball comes out, it's like, hey, I

3094
03:42:39,520 --> 03:42:41,439
can just kind of do that in Willow Creek

3095
03:42:41,439 --> 03:42:42,880
and it's fun. Um

3096
03:42:42,880 --> 03:42:44,720
>> Oh, no. You're very mean.

3097
03:42:44,720 --> 03:42:46,479
>> Yeah.

3098
03:42:46,479 --> 03:42:51,920
Um I play tennis in high school. But so, that that's really the point of

3099
03:42:51,920 --> 03:42:53,680
sports. So, we've done this. It's gone

3100
03:42:53,680 --> 03:42:55,200
really well. There was a video there,

3101
03:42:55,200 --> 03:42:57,520
but if it's not, maybe you click one

3102
03:42:57,520 --> 03:43:00,080
more. It'll load. Just so you can see

3103
03:43:00,080 --> 03:43:01,040
something in the background. There's no

3104
03:43:01,040 --> 03:43:04,479
audio. If it plays, it plays. If not, um

3105
03:43:04,479 --> 03:43:08,000
it's fine. It's just uh there was over

3106
03:43:08,000 --> 03:43:10,479
800 athletes in the first year. We did

3107
03:43:10,479 --> 03:43:13,600
soccer, basketball, baseball.

3108
03:43:13,600 --> 03:43:16,960
We we took so many of the people from uh

3109
03:43:16,960 --> 03:43:19,920
BAS Rec that Basin Rec partnered with

3110
03:43:19,920 --> 03:43:22,080
us. We're now working with BAS. I wear

3111
03:43:22,080 --> 03:43:25,359
their logo on my my other sleeve. Um and

3112
03:43:25,359 --> 03:43:27,279
so we took over little dribblers and now

3113
03:43:27,279 --> 03:43:30,399
that is city league basketball. And

3114
03:43:30,399 --> 03:43:31,840
there's a stat that's thrown around a

3115
03:43:31,840 --> 03:43:34,880
lot. It's hard to site, but 70% of kids

3116
03:43:34,880 --> 03:43:39,520
stop um playing any form of uh sports uh

3117
03:43:39,520 --> 03:43:42,960
by the time they're 13 in America. So

3118
03:43:42,960 --> 03:43:45,279
trying to see if we can make Park City a

3119
03:43:45,279 --> 03:43:46,800
little microcosm where that doesn't

3120
03:43:46,800 --> 03:43:50,239
happen. Um where kids can continue to do

3121
03:43:50,239 --> 03:43:51,760
multisport because a lot of times what

3122
03:43:51,760 --> 03:43:53,600
happens is you focus on a single sport

3123
03:43:53,600 --> 03:43:55,520
by the time you're 12. It's like pick

3124
03:43:55,520 --> 03:43:57,040
your sport. you you're either a hockey

3125
03:43:57,040 --> 03:43:58,640
player or basketball player or a soccer

3126
03:43:58,640 --> 03:44:00,720
player who you have to pick which is

3127
03:44:00,720 --> 03:44:02,000
crazy.

3128
03:44:02,000 --> 03:44:04,080
>> Eric Heiden who lives in town, two time

3129
03:44:04,080 --> 03:44:05,920
gold medalist speed skater was talking

3130
03:44:05,920 --> 03:44:07,920
on a panel and we chatted after and he's

3131
03:44:07,920 --> 03:44:09,439
like it's crazy the amount of

3132
03:44:09,439 --> 03:44:11,600
reconstructive knee surgeries that we're

3133
03:44:11,600 --> 03:44:13,840
seeing for high school athletes. It's

3134
03:44:13,840 --> 03:44:16,399
unprecedented. All sports psychologists,

3135
03:44:16,399 --> 03:44:18,560
physiologists are all about you should

3136
03:44:18,560 --> 03:44:21,359
be a well diversified athlete playing

3137
03:44:21,359 --> 03:44:23,600
multisport up until at least 12 if not

3138
03:44:23,600 --> 03:44:26,399
14 if not all the way through. And so

3139
03:44:26,399 --> 03:44:28,319
we've created a compelling case for that

3140
03:44:28,319 --> 03:44:29,840
first through fifth. And a lot of people

3141
03:44:29,840 --> 03:44:32,080
are, you know, leaving the clubs, not

3142
03:44:32,080 --> 03:44:33,520
because clubs are bad, but because it

3143
03:44:33,520 --> 03:44:35,760
works better for their family to have

3144
03:44:35,760 --> 03:44:37,920
family dinner if it's always Monday

3145
03:44:37,920 --> 03:44:40,000
through Thursday. We have weekends back

3146
03:44:40,000 --> 03:44:43,040
and um we're typically done by 5:30. So

3147
03:44:43,040 --> 03:44:45,760
you have family dinners. And so the

3148
03:44:45,760 --> 03:44:48,000
community is really really um enjoying

3149
03:44:48,000 --> 03:44:51,120
this. We're 501c3 and uh you know, our

3150
03:44:51,120 --> 03:44:52,880
board is entirely volunteer based. I've

3151
03:44:52,880 --> 03:44:54,880
been at every single city league event

3152
03:44:54,880 --> 03:44:58,239
until the one today that I was not at,

3153
03:44:58,239 --> 03:45:00,080
but every other one where we're all

3154
03:45:00,080 --> 03:45:01,520
volunteer with the exception of our paid

3155
03:45:01,520 --> 03:45:03,600
coaches. You can go to the next slide.

3156
03:45:03,600 --> 03:45:04,960
But the number one question is we love

3157
03:45:04,960 --> 03:45:06,960
City League, but what happens in middle

3158
03:45:06,960 --> 03:45:09,439
school? Um, we obviously continue to do

3159
03:45:09,439 --> 03:45:11,199
City League up through middle school.

3160
03:45:11,199 --> 03:45:15,520
Um, but we've been in close contact with Jamie and with Chris uh since the

3161
03:45:15,520 --> 03:45:18,720
inception of City League and there is a

3162
03:45:18,720 --> 03:45:22,399
strong strong desire for a compelling

3163
03:45:22,399 --> 03:45:25,279
middle school sports uh situation in

3164
03:45:25,279 --> 03:45:27,920
town. And so we could obviously do city

3165
03:45:27,920 --> 03:45:30,239
league, but I think would be more

3166
03:45:30,239 --> 03:45:32,479
compelling for a sense of belonging, for

3167
03:45:32,479 --> 03:45:34,880
athletes, for a sense of identity, for a

3168
03:45:34,880 --> 03:45:36,399
sense of kind of being part of the

3169
03:45:36,399 --> 03:45:39,840
community is to be on a possible no cut

3170
03:45:39,840 --> 03:45:40,960
basketball team.

3171
03:45:40,960 --> 03:45:43,120
>> I'm on the basketball team. I'm on the

3172
03:45:43,120 --> 03:45:44,640
Heart City Middle School basketball

3173
03:45:44,640 --> 03:45:46,560
team. There's something really really

3174
03:45:46,560 --> 03:45:49,120
strong about that. Um especially when

3175
03:45:49,120 --> 03:45:51,199
people are possibly taking a step

3176
03:45:51,199 --> 03:45:53,920
outside of club doing city league but

3177
03:45:53,920 --> 03:45:55,840
then they're like oh if I want to have

3178
03:45:55,840 --> 03:45:58,960
any chance of making the high school

3179
03:45:58,960 --> 03:46:01,840
soccer team I have to go back to the

3180
03:46:01,840 --> 03:46:03,279
clubs and then I'm traveling and then

3181
03:46:03,279 --> 03:46:05,439
playing a single sport then I can't do a

3182
03:46:05,439 --> 03:46:08,479
multisport option. So um if you can go

3183
03:46:08,479 --> 03:46:12,080
to the next slide the our our goal is

3184
03:46:12,080 --> 03:46:14,160
just to to help lift soccer, basketball,

3185
03:46:14,160 --> 03:46:16,000
baseball and softball for this next

3186
03:46:16,000 --> 03:46:19,760
year. Our simul methodology is we order

3187
03:46:19,760 --> 03:46:22,800
pretty nice uniforms and then they're

3188
03:46:22,800 --> 03:46:24,800
returned at the end. Um instead of

3189
03:46:24,800 --> 03:46:27,760
paying $600 for club uniforms every two

3190
03:46:27,760 --> 03:46:31,040
years, we pay for them and then we wash

3191
03:46:31,040 --> 03:46:34,000
them and then they're returned. Like um

3192
03:46:34,000 --> 03:46:35,520
I feel like most of us live in your

3193
03:46:35,520 --> 03:46:38,880
kids. Um,

3194
03:46:38,880 --> 03:46:41,680
it will start by being a local league

3195
03:46:41,680 --> 03:46:43,680
with games and playoffs completely

3196
03:46:43,680 --> 03:46:46,800
intramural in town. But the uniforms I'm

3197
03:46:46,800 --> 03:46:50,000
proposing would be minors or Park City

3198
03:46:50,000 --> 03:46:52,080
and we can wear armbands where you the

3199
03:46:52,080 --> 03:46:54,319
typical city league teams are the

3200
03:46:54,319 --> 03:46:56,479
mountain or chair names. If you have

3201
03:46:56,479 --> 03:46:58,880
kids in titty league, Ontario versus P5

3202
03:46:58,880 --> 03:47:01,199
versus Jupiter versus Monkeys. uh we

3203
03:47:01,199 --> 03:47:03,520
will probably still do that uh with

3204
03:47:03,520 --> 03:47:05,920
armpits, but this allows us the

3205
03:47:05,920 --> 03:47:07,279
opportunity to not have to reorder

3206
03:47:07,279 --> 03:47:09,920
uniforms in year two or year three if

3207
03:47:09,920 --> 03:47:12,960
and when there is a strong desire in

3208
03:47:12,960 --> 03:47:16,319
town and and for for us to, you know,

3209
03:47:16,319 --> 03:47:18,000
harvest a representative team to play

3210
03:47:18,000 --> 03:47:20,319
against North Summer or South or if we

3211
03:47:20,319 --> 03:47:23,279
can't get to to play ball, we can just

3212
03:47:23,279 --> 03:47:25,760
enter an AA basketball tournament and

3213
03:47:25,760 --> 03:47:28,720
bring an A, B, and a C team and enter in

3214
03:47:28,720 --> 03:47:30,479
different divisions. We can do a sixth

3215
03:47:30,479 --> 03:47:32,239
grade, seventh grade, eighth grade team.

3216
03:47:32,239 --> 03:47:35,279
Um, we can do this at the the soccer

3217
03:47:35,279 --> 03:47:37,279
tournaments around town. And wouldn't it

3218
03:47:37,279 --> 03:47:39,120
be cool if there was a part middle

3219
03:47:39,120 --> 03:47:40,880
school team playing against some of the

3220
03:47:40,880 --> 03:47:42,560
club kids? And I'm telling you what

3221
03:47:42,560 --> 03:47:45,359
we're seeing in in the development of

3222
03:47:45,359 --> 03:47:47,439
the first year of city league is a lot

3223
03:47:47,439 --> 03:47:51,199
of those the the city league teams could

3224
03:47:51,199 --> 03:47:53,439
be very competitive and it would be very

3225
03:47:53,439 --> 03:47:55,520
cool to have the the middle school team

3226
03:47:55,520 --> 03:47:58,479
be competitive at a a club if they don't

3227
03:47:58,479 --> 03:48:01,520
maybe want. So that's the proposal. Um

3228
03:48:01,520 --> 03:48:04,479
and we're working on anou um with with

3229
03:48:04,479 --> 03:48:08,000
Lindsay and you know our our only goal

3230
03:48:08,000 --> 03:48:10,960
is to support you all. We obviously have

3231
03:48:10,960 --> 03:48:12,640
done it at City League. I think it'd be

3232
03:48:12,640 --> 03:48:14,239
much more compelling to have it be Park

3233
03:48:14,239 --> 03:48:16,080
City Middle School and we're just in the

3234
03:48:16,080 --> 03:48:17,920
background. We have the coaching staff.

3235
03:48:17,920 --> 03:48:20,239
We have over 100 coaches that work with

3236
03:48:20,239 --> 03:48:22,560
us um that are paid and trained and in

3237
03:48:22,560 --> 03:48:25,040
our philosophy of love of sport and high

3238
03:48:25,040 --> 03:48:29,439
development, high rep count because our general philosophy which seems to be

3239
03:48:29,439 --> 03:48:32,479
working is it's it's not about telling

3240
03:48:32,479 --> 03:48:34,319
the kid that they need to commit or they

3241
03:48:34,319 --> 03:48:36,560
need to go home and practice if they

3242
03:48:36,560 --> 03:48:38,640
want to be like messy. It's like, "No,

3243
03:48:38,640 --> 03:48:41,439
let's make this so fun that it's they

3244
03:48:41,439 --> 03:48:43,600
just go home and they we've heard

3245
03:48:43,600 --> 03:48:46,000
reports that at McPoland there's a

3246
03:48:46,000 --> 03:48:48,160
basketball games going every recess at

3247
03:48:48,160 --> 03:48:49,760
both recesses. There never used to be

3248
03:48:49,760 --> 03:48:52,160
basketball.

3249
03:48:52,160 --> 03:48:53,520
Man, you'll the kids are going to get

3250
03:48:53,520 --> 03:48:54,880
really good at basketball. Not because

3251
03:48:54,880 --> 03:48:57,040
of any sort of thing we're teaching them

3252
03:48:57,040 --> 03:48:58,960
about keeping their elbow in. It's

3253
03:48:58,960 --> 03:49:01,279
because it's super fun. And now they're

3254
03:49:01,279 --> 03:49:03,840
all playing recess. And now we got like

3255
03:49:03,840 --> 03:49:09,359
a lot of ballers in town and on top of that, what we also do,

3256
03:49:09,359 --> 03:49:13,040
this is just on the side, we do um

3257
03:49:13,040 --> 03:49:15,760
chaperon drop in stuff. So, for example,

3258
03:49:15,760 --> 03:49:17,359
a week and a half ago, Willow Creek, we

3259
03:49:17,359 --> 03:49:19,439
had like 60 kids just playing pickup

3260
03:49:19,439 --> 03:49:21,760
basketball in Willow Creek. And so, the

3261
03:49:21,760 --> 03:49:24,319
goal is to not have kids specialized,

3262
03:49:24,319 --> 03:49:27,279
but have well-rounded athletes in town.

3263
03:49:27,279 --> 03:49:29,439
And by doing the middle school sports, I

3264
03:49:29,439 --> 03:49:33,040
think it also allows some kids, we have

3265
03:49:33,040 --> 03:49:34,800
so many kids that their parents have

3266
03:49:34,800 --> 03:49:36,960
said, they would have stopped

3267
03:49:36,960 --> 03:49:40,800
There was a Aspen Institute um some

3268
03:49:40,800 --> 03:49:42,319
study that just came out that said like

3269
03:49:42,319 --> 03:49:45,760
the year that kids stop playing is when

3270
03:49:45,760 --> 03:49:47,439
the middle school years are when kids

3271
03:49:47,439 --> 03:49:49,760
stop playing sports.

3272
03:49:49,760 --> 03:49:51,680
>> They move inside and go on screen.

3273
03:49:51,680 --> 03:49:54,080
>> Yeah.

3274
03:49:54,080 --> 03:49:57,199
So next did City just start here in Park

3275
03:49:57,199 --> 03:49:59,760
City or is it from somewhere like y'all

3276
03:49:59,760 --> 03:50:02,239
just came up like you were like

3277
03:50:02,239 --> 03:50:04,640
>> well yeah was it was that honest

3278
03:50:04,640 --> 03:50:06,800
>> it's not where we want to be.

3279
03:50:06,800 --> 03:50:08,720
>> It wasn't totally

3280
03:50:08,720 --> 03:50:09,600
>> let's just

3281
03:50:09,600 --> 03:50:11,920
>> I saw my I love family dinner with my

3282
03:50:11,920 --> 03:50:13,680
three kids and then I was a club coach

3283
03:50:13,680 --> 03:50:15,760
and we're in all all over the country

3284
03:50:15,760 --> 03:50:18,800
and it was just untenable and my kids

3285
03:50:18,800 --> 03:50:20,479
are really big into team sports. were

3286
03:50:20,479 --> 03:50:22,319
also big mountain bikers and skiers, but

3287
03:50:22,319 --> 03:50:25,120
it was just I could see the future was

3288
03:50:25,120 --> 03:50:27,680
not going to be good for our family and

3289
03:50:27,680 --> 03:50:29,840
the amount of people at some of these

3290
03:50:29,840 --> 03:50:31,520
club games and people everyone's talking

3291
03:50:31,520 --> 03:50:33,359
like why are we what are we doing with

3292
03:50:33,359 --> 03:50:37,199
our lives? This is so

3293
03:50:37,199 --> 03:50:39,040
hard for the family, but yet it's what

3294
03:50:39,040 --> 03:50:41,279
everybody's doing in America.

3295
03:50:41,279 --> 03:50:43,439
Um,

3296
03:50:43,439 --> 03:50:44,960
this was just it was born out of

3297
03:50:44,960 --> 03:50:46,399
necessity for

3298
03:50:46,399 --> 03:50:48,560
>> I can't tell you how relieved I was when

3299
03:50:48,560 --> 03:50:51,600
my eighth grade now eighth grader did

3300
03:50:51,600 --> 03:50:54,399
one season at Divos ski team and then

3301
03:50:54,399 --> 03:50:59,269
didn't want to do it again. I was like

3302
03:50:59,279 --> 03:51:01,760
» I love this so much.

3303
03:51:01,760 --> 03:51:03,359
I have a couple questions. Will base and

3304
03:51:03,359 --> 03:51:07,040
rec still be part? So that is the

3305
03:51:07,040 --> 03:51:08,080
current

3306
03:51:08,080 --> 03:51:10,000
>> that would be the current plan because

3307
03:51:10,000 --> 03:51:11,439
right now we have a framework with them

3308
03:51:11,439 --> 03:51:14,399
for first and fifth. Um it's also been

3309
03:51:14,399 --> 03:51:16,640
super we did soccer by ourselves

3310
03:51:16,640 --> 03:51:19,279
>> and we were a user group with the town

3311
03:51:19,279 --> 03:51:21,760
and we we did it all twins and straight.

3312
03:51:21,760 --> 03:51:24,000
Um we've done basketball and baseball

3313
03:51:24,000 --> 03:51:26,000
the last two seasons with basin. It's

3314
03:51:26,000 --> 03:51:27,199
just been really nice to have the

3315
03:51:27,199 --> 03:51:29,279
flexibility with this crazy weather over

3316
03:51:29,279 --> 03:51:31,680
the last couple weeks and just go

3317
03:51:31,680 --> 03:51:34,080
indoors to the fieldhouse. It's just so

3318
03:51:34,080 --> 03:51:35,680
convenient to be able to have that sort

3319
03:51:35,680 --> 03:51:37,600
of flexibility. The other thing is

3320
03:51:37,600 --> 03:51:40,160
having the flexibility to possibly have

3321
03:51:40,160 --> 03:51:41,439
the fifth graders play with the sixth

3322
03:51:41,439 --> 03:51:48,080
graders. Um, so that would be the current framework. It's actually not

3323
03:51:48,080 --> 03:51:51,040
inou

3324
03:51:51,040 --> 03:51:53,760
yesterday and they have a keen interest

3325
03:51:53,760 --> 03:51:55,920
in in continuing to work with us through

3326
03:51:55,920 --> 03:52:01,760
middle school. But my strong desire from a branding and marketing standpoint

3327
03:52:01,760 --> 03:52:03,199
is that it is Park City Middle School

3328
03:52:03,199 --> 03:52:05,040
athletics

3329
03:52:05,040 --> 03:52:08,319
subtext powered by coaching and basic

3330
03:52:08,319 --> 03:52:10,800
rails in the sense that they sign up on

3331
03:52:10,800 --> 03:52:13,760
the basic website through their app.

3332
03:52:13,760 --> 03:52:16,239
>> But um

3333
03:52:16,239 --> 03:52:18,239
>> logistical backing stuff, right? There's

3334
03:52:18,239 --> 03:52:20,479
only so many sixth through 8th graders

3335
03:52:20,479 --> 03:52:22,319
here in town and we don't want to be

3336
03:52:22,319 --> 03:52:24,960
competing for the same kids. So how do

3337
03:52:24,960 --> 03:52:26,960
we ensure this is a collective effort

3338
03:52:26,960 --> 03:52:30,309
amongst

3339
03:52:30,319 --> 03:52:33,520
» Brian Hazel Sam and Logan in the basin

3340
03:52:33,520 --> 03:52:35,840
yesterday they we asked them to take

3341
03:52:35,840 --> 03:52:37,040
down their sixth through eight they

3342
03:52:37,040 --> 03:52:39,920
didn't have any signups yet um the first

3343
03:52:39,920 --> 03:52:42,960
through fifth so that just a they posted

3344
03:52:42,960 --> 03:52:44,640
sixth through eight soccer and first

3345
03:52:44,640 --> 03:52:47,199
through fifth city league soccer the

3346
03:52:47,199 --> 03:52:49,600
same at the same time two days later it

3347
03:52:49,600 --> 03:52:52,880
was 200 city leagues from zero six

3348
03:52:52,880 --> 03:52:53,520
through eight

3349
03:52:53,520 --> 03:52:55,199
>> yeah And so I'm like, can you take that

3350
03:52:55,199 --> 03:52:57,040
down because we're gonna go talk to the

3351
03:52:57,040 --> 03:53:01,279
school board. And um but then I'm sure

3352
03:53:01,279 --> 03:53:03,520
when we announced this, everyone's

3353
03:53:03,520 --> 03:53:06,080
waiting for

3354
03:53:06,080 --> 03:53:07,199
>> what's going to happen.

3355
03:53:07,199 --> 03:53:10,479
>> Okay. I have another question. So, if

3356
03:53:10,479 --> 03:53:13,120
you're going to have coaches who are

3357
03:53:13,120 --> 03:53:16,800
paid for, you know, owned by affiliated

3358
03:53:16,800 --> 03:53:19,760
with someone other than the district,

3359
03:53:19,760 --> 03:53:22,319
how do we make sure we're all aligned in

3360
03:53:22,319 --> 03:53:25,279
terms of coach training when it comes to

3361
03:53:25,279 --> 03:53:29,840
safe sport? So, um that would all be

3362
03:53:29,840 --> 03:53:32,479
outlined in theou. It'll be in the

3363
03:53:32,479 --> 03:53:34,479
>> want to ensure we're not comingling

3364
03:53:34,479 --> 03:53:38,640
funds but also aligning professionalism

3365
03:53:38,640 --> 03:53:41,600
and training for our coaches.

3366
03:53:41,600 --> 03:53:43,920
>> Yeah. So we have like background check

3367
03:53:43,920 --> 03:53:46,239
safe sport compression training and then

3368
03:53:46,239 --> 03:53:47,680
there's the city league training which

3369
03:53:47,680 --> 03:53:51,040
is like don't yell at the kids.

3370
03:53:51,040 --> 03:53:56,070
You'd be surprised how

3371
03:53:56,080 --> 03:53:58,960
» joystick

3372
03:53:58,960 --> 03:54:01,760
>> but there's a philosophy but we do do

3373
03:54:01,760 --> 03:54:06,000
the um safe sport and back object but

3374
03:54:06,000 --> 03:54:09,199
any any additional requirements

3375
03:54:09,199 --> 03:54:12,000
we're happy just yeah

3376
03:54:12,000 --> 03:54:14,080
>> okay my last question because I love the

3377
03:54:14,080 --> 03:54:16,399
idea so much of having a community based

3378
03:54:16,399 --> 03:54:19,279
lead and all these things sounds like

3379
03:54:19,279 --> 03:54:21,199
you want to go to nearby communities

3380
03:54:21,199 --> 03:54:23,359
too. Then we start having more travel

3381
03:54:23,359 --> 03:54:25,680
and it starts getting more complex.

3382
03:54:25,680 --> 03:54:27,600
>> Do you do you feel like your MO is

3383
03:54:27,600 --> 03:54:31,439
really to stay in Park City Park?

3384
03:54:31,439 --> 03:54:32,960
>> I mean a lot of people have said we I

3385
03:54:32,960 --> 03:54:36,319
mean I' I've built a a company um that

3386
03:54:36,319 --> 03:54:38,239
was a global company and everyone's like

3387
03:54:38,239 --> 03:54:40,319
well you got to do that with this is a

3388
03:54:40,319 --> 03:54:43,439
Park City thing. I'm not there's no

3389
03:54:43,439 --> 03:54:45,600
interest. If anything, we'd make a white

3390
03:54:45,600 --> 03:54:48,239
paper and let other communities help

3391
03:54:48,239 --> 03:54:50,560
somebody in Aurora, Colorado about it.

3392
03:54:50,560 --> 03:54:52,720
I'm just advising them, helping them do

3393
03:54:52,720 --> 03:54:54,880
a similar thing, but we have no interest

3394
03:54:54,880 --> 03:54:57,600
in in replicating this in other other

3395
03:54:57,600 --> 03:55:00,640
towns. Um, with the on the question of

3396
03:55:00,640 --> 03:55:04,880
travel, we think that to to be a to be a

3397
03:55:04,880 --> 03:55:08,000
propelling athlete that has a chance of

3398
03:55:08,000 --> 03:55:10,239
participating in a varsity sport at some

3399
03:55:10,239 --> 03:55:12,239
point in high school, we think that

3400
03:55:12,239 --> 03:55:16,399
there is an element of

3401
03:55:16,399 --> 03:55:18,880
possibly playing against another town.

3402
03:55:18,880 --> 03:55:21,920
Um, it would only always be in the

3403
03:55:21,920 --> 03:55:27,520
season. So, never round sports. It's basketball season. It's the winter.

3404
03:55:27,520 --> 03:55:30,720
Um, in the first year, I could see maybe

3405
03:55:30,720 --> 03:55:34,479
taking three teams to a tournament in

3406
03:55:34,479 --> 03:55:37,279
West Jordan. One thing down the line, if

3407
03:55:37,279 --> 03:55:39,760
we can get the other towns to play, then

3408
03:55:39,760 --> 03:55:41,199
maybe there's a game against North

3409
03:55:41,199 --> 03:55:42,560
Summit, a game against South Summit.

3410
03:55:42,560 --> 03:55:44,640
There's two exhibition games. And until

3411
03:55:44,640 --> 03:55:46,560
an actual league, middle school league

3412
03:55:46,560 --> 03:55:49,120
in Utah were to be born. It's just like,

3413
03:55:49,120 --> 03:55:51,040
wait, it's it's propped up on the

3414
03:55:51,040 --> 03:55:53,040
foundation of an intramural, highly

3415
03:55:53,040 --> 03:55:55,439
compelling intramural thing. It's not

3416
03:55:55,439 --> 03:55:57,520
this is a no cut thing, but the bottom

3417
03:55:57,520 --> 03:56:01,439
third get no actual sport and it's like

3418
03:56:01,439 --> 03:56:04,720
just culture being on a team. The

3419
03:56:04,720 --> 03:56:06,960
primary thing is a is an intramural

3420
03:56:06,960 --> 03:56:09,040
thing where we have you're you're put on

3421
03:56:09,040 --> 03:56:11,840
a team. You're on this team of 12. You

3422
03:56:11,840 --> 03:56:13,520
have a dedicated coach and assistant

3423
03:56:13,520 --> 03:56:16,640
coach. You're playing in a tournament

3424
03:56:16,640 --> 03:56:20,000
that's entirely at eer or at one of the

3425
03:56:20,000 --> 03:56:22,720
basin fields. there's, you know, little

3426
03:56:22,720 --> 03:56:24,720
tournament group trophies and it's like

3427
03:56:24,720 --> 03:56:29,199
totally self-sufficient. If we can

3428
03:56:29,199 --> 03:56:31,840
uh have some sort of travel component

3429
03:56:31,840 --> 03:56:34,479
that will be completely secondary and it

3430
03:56:34,479 --> 03:56:36,239
will never be like a

3431
03:56:36,239 --> 03:56:37,040
>> a barrier.

3432
03:56:37,040 --> 03:56:38,080
>> Yeah.

3433
03:56:38,080 --> 03:56:40,000
>> The larger school districts grant for

3434
03:56:40,000 --> 03:56:42,960
example, they have uh middle school,

3435
03:56:42,960 --> 03:56:45,040
junior high athletics because they have

3436
03:56:45,040 --> 03:56:47,680
the enrollment to do so. When I went to

3437
03:56:47,680 --> 03:56:49,600
Chris probably this time this year and

3438
03:56:49,600 --> 03:56:52,560
said or last year, hey, I want to

3439
03:56:52,560 --> 03:56:54,800
develop some sort of middle schools. We

3440
03:56:54,800 --> 03:56:56,880
emailed superintendent ads across the

3441
03:56:56,880 --> 03:56:59,439
wall such back. None of them are

3442
03:56:59,439 --> 03:57:02,319
interested. Uh I know there's a need

3443
03:57:02,319 --> 03:57:04,399
despite what they have shared. Um but

3444
03:57:04,399 --> 03:57:05,920
they were not interested in joining

3445
03:57:05,920 --> 03:57:07,600
forces. That is why we went with this

3446
03:57:07,600 --> 03:57:10,080
intramural model.

3447
03:57:10,080 --> 03:57:12,160
>> So you I'm gonna stop talking. I really

3448
03:57:12,160 --> 03:57:13,920
am.

3449
03:57:13,920 --> 03:57:15,920
There's so much good data about how

3450
03:57:15,920 --> 03:57:17,359
important it is to keep kids during

3451
03:57:17,359 --> 03:57:19,680
multiple sports their whole way through

3452
03:57:19,680 --> 03:57:21,279
at least middle school and up. And

3453
03:57:21,279 --> 03:57:22,880
there's actually there were two really

3454
03:57:22,880 --> 03:57:24,239
cool articles that came out in general

3455
03:57:24,239 --> 03:57:25,840
pediatrics and then there was one in the

3456
03:57:25,840 --> 03:57:28,160
New Yorker about how the quality of play

3457
03:57:28,160 --> 03:57:32,160
that we're seeing in the NFL and then um

3458
03:57:32,160 --> 03:57:35,920
the NBA is not as good as maybe it used

3459
03:57:35,920 --> 03:57:37,520
to be because kids aren't having this

3460
03:57:37,520 --> 03:57:40,080
time not being so supervised and having

3461
03:57:40,080 --> 03:57:42,319
hours upon hours upon hours upon hours

3462
03:57:42,319 --> 03:57:44,800
to get creative and figure out way.

3463
03:57:44,800 --> 03:57:46,960
>> Yeah. I mean, I think what happens is we

3464
03:57:46,960 --> 03:57:49,920
overschedu our kids and expect that

3465
03:57:49,920 --> 03:57:52,319
like, oh, because I'm paying the $2,000

3466
03:57:52,319 --> 03:57:54,080
for the club thing, then they're getting

3467
03:57:54,080 --> 03:57:56,880
an hour here and an hour there. But my

3468
03:57:56,880 --> 03:57:59,920
father-in-law grew up or in Argentina

3469
03:57:59,920 --> 03:58:01,680
and used to play for six hours every

3470
03:58:01,680 --> 03:58:03,600
day, every

3471
03:58:03,600 --> 03:58:06,319
soccer player ever seen. He didn't play

3472
03:58:06,319 --> 03:58:08,960
any any didn't have any fancy anything.

3473
03:58:08,960 --> 03:58:09,120
And

3474
03:58:09,120 --> 03:58:10,399
>> if they love it, they'll do that.

3475
03:58:10,399 --> 03:58:12,399
>> Right. So, our goal is to to have

3476
03:58:12,399 --> 03:58:15,040
seasonal sports, but then also

3477
03:58:15,040 --> 03:58:18,479
>> have these chaperon drop in things where

3478
03:58:18,479 --> 03:58:20,319
there's pickup ball, there's pickup

3479
03:58:20,319 --> 03:58:22,960
soccer, there's home run derby, sandlock

3480
03:58:22,960 --> 03:58:25,279
baseball happening

3481
03:58:25,279 --> 03:58:27,520
every single day at Willow Creek at

3482
03:58:27,520 --> 03:58:30,000
Trailside and Bas supportive of that.

3483
03:58:30,000 --> 03:58:33,040
maybe city league is now taking

3484
03:58:33,040 --> 03:58:36,080
over a lot of the sports, but how can

3485
03:58:36,080 --> 03:58:38,479
BAS still provide their mission to to

3486
03:58:38,479 --> 03:58:40,800
the town? And we believe it could be

3487
03:58:40,800 --> 03:58:42,479
through a lot of this sort of chaperon

3488
03:58:42,479 --> 03:58:44,800
and dropping stuff. And if you think

3489
03:58:44,800 --> 03:58:48,319
about it, the an athletes like time

3490
03:58:48,319 --> 03:58:50,720
playing sport just goes way up. There's

3491
03:58:50,720 --> 03:58:53,520
less time in the car and more time just

3492
03:58:53,520 --> 03:58:55,120
playing with their friends and figuring

3493
03:58:55,120 --> 03:58:56,399
out cool moves,

3494
03:58:56,399 --> 03:58:57,920
>> being silly, you know.

3495
03:58:57,920 --> 03:58:58,880
>> And there's nothing better than a

3496
03:58:58,880 --> 03:59:01,760
playground with like 50 to

3497
03:59:01,760 --> 03:59:04,080
>> Yeah. outside.

3498
03:59:04,080 --> 03:59:06,960
>> So, uh,

3499
03:59:06,960 --> 03:59:09,199
absolutely love everything about this.

3500
03:59:09,199 --> 03:59:12,720
uh multisport athlete uh degree and

3501
03:59:12,720 --> 03:59:15,680
masters in sport science. It drives me

3502
03:59:15,680 --> 03:59:19,359
nuts how early kids specialize in the

3503
03:59:19,359 --> 03:59:21,600
states. It's getting worse everywhere

3504
03:59:21,600 --> 03:59:23,120
states and kids should be playing

3505
03:59:23,120 --> 03:59:24,640
multiple sports like through through

3506
03:59:24,640 --> 03:59:28,319
high school. Um any my question is not

3507
03:59:28,319 --> 03:59:31,120
about those kids because we know a lot

3508
03:59:31,120 --> 03:59:34,479
of kids start very very young and by 12

3509
03:59:34,479 --> 03:59:36,560
they'll stop or whatever. What about the

3510
03:59:36,560 --> 03:59:38,080
kids we miss when they're very young?

3511
03:59:38,080 --> 03:59:41,199
What about the kids who uh you know for

3512
03:59:41,199 --> 03:59:42,960
whatever reason don't pick it up in

3513
03:59:42,960 --> 03:59:45,760
elementary school and then want to and I

3514
03:59:45,760 --> 03:59:48,000
know you say it's no cut. I know you say

3515
03:59:48,000 --> 03:59:51,120
it's fun but how do we pick up those

3516
03:59:51,120 --> 03:59:53,920
kids who are missed at the youngest age

3517
03:59:53,920 --> 03:59:56,560
and then when they're in middle school

3518
03:59:56,560 --> 03:59:59,600
want to try? How do we avoid those kids?

3519
03:59:59,600 --> 04:00:01,040
How do we get rid of the barrier to

3520
04:00:01,040 --> 04:00:04,960
entry for them and the kids who have

3521
04:00:04,960 --> 04:00:06,399
been for years?

3522
04:00:06,399 --> 04:00:09,840
>> Yeah. So all of our practices are camp

3523
04:00:09,840 --> 04:00:12,800
style and everyone's there. And so for

3524
04:00:12,800 --> 04:00:15,120
example for soccer we had 170 kids at a

3525
04:00:15,120 --> 04:00:17,760
time. I'll never go back.

3526
04:00:17,760 --> 04:00:19,760
We have stations and all of our stations

3527
04:00:19,760 --> 04:00:23,120
are designed such that an elite top

3528
04:00:23,120 --> 04:00:25,680
level kid coming from club is getting

3529
04:00:25,680 --> 04:00:28,399
the reps and the development. But also

3530
04:00:28,399 --> 04:00:30,880
for some reason we call him Timmy. Timmy

3531
04:00:30,880 --> 04:00:34,479
who has never played with and is just

3532
04:00:34,479 --> 04:00:36,720
scared of the ball or this or that. For

3533
04:00:36,720 --> 04:00:38,479
example, we will not do this with middle

3534
04:00:38,479 --> 04:00:40,160
school, but to show you some more

3535
04:00:40,160 --> 04:00:42,640
flexibility, we designed a a station on

3536
04:00:42,640 --> 04:00:44,560
a baseball that has yoga blocks and it

3537
04:00:44,560 --> 04:00:46,000
was like a carnival game.

3538
04:00:46,000 --> 04:00:47,840
>> And so this just incentivizes that maybe

3539
04:00:47,840 --> 04:00:50,239
a high rep count of throwing a ball. The

3540
04:00:50,239 --> 04:00:51,600
brain is a beautiful thing. It will

3541
04:00:51,600 --> 04:00:53,120
selfoptimize.

3542
04:00:53,120 --> 04:00:54,960
We don't need to say, you know, get your

3543
04:00:54,960 --> 04:00:57,840
elbow here, do this. We get one cue. You

3544
04:00:57,840 --> 04:00:59,439
need to drag him back there. bring the

3545
04:00:59,439 --> 04:01:01,279
ball back and they just try to knock

3546
04:01:01,279 --> 04:01:03,600
down as many yoga blocks as you can and

3547
04:01:03,600 --> 04:01:05,840
they're throwing 200, you know, actually

3548
04:01:05,840 --> 04:01:09,439
200 is too many, but 75 per

3549
04:01:09,439 --> 04:01:12,080
>> Yeah. 75 balls and they're playing and

3550
04:01:12,080 --> 04:01:14,080
before you know it, they start to get

3551
04:01:14,080 --> 04:01:15,600
it. And what's also cool about this town

3552
04:01:15,600 --> 04:01:18,080
is we live in a town of incredibly

3553
04:01:18,080 --> 04:01:21,359
athletic parents. So, if I see a kid and

3554
04:01:21,359 --> 04:01:23,920
I know it's it's kind of weird. I know

3555
04:01:23,920 --> 04:01:25,840
all the kids in town and the parents are

3556
04:01:25,840 --> 04:01:28,479
like that.

3557
04:01:28,479 --> 04:01:33,920
>> But so I know all the kids in town and I know that when I see someone who okay,

3558
04:01:33,920 --> 04:01:36,160
I know this kid, I know the parents, he

3559
04:01:36,160 --> 04:01:38,239
can't can't really play soccer very

3560
04:01:38,239 --> 04:01:40,239
well. If I can get this kid somehow

3561
04:01:40,239 --> 04:01:43,359
through fun and not like randomization,

3562
04:01:43,359 --> 04:01:46,080
but just may how can we design something

3563
04:01:46,080 --> 04:01:49,199
for this one kid so he kicks the ball a

3564
04:01:49,199 --> 04:01:51,760
thousand times in the next two weeks.

3565
04:01:51,760 --> 04:01:53,199
We've had kids that have never played

3566
04:01:53,199 --> 04:01:56,319
the soccer by the end just

3567
04:01:56,319 --> 04:02:00,239
incredibly strong athletes and so we can ramp people up really quickly.

3568
04:02:00,239 --> 04:02:01,520
That's something I saw in club. I was a

3569
04:02:01,520 --> 04:02:03,439
club soccer coach. We were doing threeon

3570
04:02:03,439 --> 04:02:06,399
two-onone drills and this kid is so

3571
04:02:06,399 --> 04:02:09,680
fastest kid could not kick. So it's like

3572
04:02:09,680 --> 04:02:12,160
we're asking him to cross the ball the

3573
04:02:12,160 --> 04:02:13,680
whole length of the field. He can't do

3574
04:02:13,680 --> 04:02:15,840
it. And he was like I don't like soccer.

3575
04:02:15,840 --> 04:02:17,760
I'm not good at it. We had him in city

3576
04:02:17,760 --> 04:02:19,600
league the next year and he's one of the

3577
04:02:19,600 --> 04:02:22,319
allstars because we have 10 radar guns

3578
04:02:22,319 --> 04:02:23,920
and it's like kick the ball up against

3579
04:02:23,920 --> 04:02:26,160
the fence and you have a feeling of

3580
04:02:26,160 --> 04:02:28,960
success like the radar gun if you're

3581
04:02:28,960 --> 04:02:30,880
only kicking it at 10 miles an hour next

3582
04:02:30,880 --> 04:02:32,880
to the kid who can kick at 45 you don't

3583
04:02:32,880 --> 04:02:34,960
feel you're doing very good but if you

3584
04:02:34,960 --> 04:02:37,840
can kick at 10 then 12 then 14 again the

3585
04:02:37,840 --> 04:02:39,920
brain will selfoptimize

3586
04:02:39,920 --> 04:02:42,000
you're having a feeling of success we

3587
04:02:42,000 --> 04:02:45,279
can get those kids up to speed and also

3588
04:02:45,279 --> 04:02:47,040
we can teach

3589
04:02:47,040 --> 04:02:49,439
kind of really really good kids that

3590
04:02:49,439 --> 04:02:50,880
it's not about winning. It's about how

3591
04:02:50,880 --> 04:02:52,479
can you be a leader? How can you elevate

3592
04:02:52,479 --> 04:02:55,760
your teammate? Wow. Like do you see how

3593
04:02:55,760 --> 04:02:57,920
you can maybe help this kid? just the

3594
04:02:57,920 --> 04:03:01,040
leadership development alone from from

3595
04:03:01,040 --> 04:03:05,520
having like even teams as opposed to um

3596
04:03:05,520 --> 04:03:07,520
you know having like the the hey team

3597
04:03:07,520 --> 04:03:10,880
here team there which we may have if we

3598
04:03:10,880 --> 04:03:13,199
go down to a tournament but the the base

3599
04:03:13,199 --> 04:03:15,439
thing is completely even teams after

3600
04:03:15,439 --> 04:03:17,520
assessments and so I think we can get

3601
04:03:17,520 --> 04:03:21,910
those kids up.

3602
04:03:21,920 --> 04:03:26,229
» So you needed

3603
04:03:26,239 --> 04:03:28,800
for We don't we don't we're not we don't

3604
04:03:28,800 --> 04:03:30,960
want to stop at at middle school. The

3605
04:03:30,960 --> 04:03:33,040
goal is the biggest need in town is is

3606
04:03:33,040 --> 04:03:34,960
like first through the eighth grade but

3607
04:03:34,960 --> 04:03:38,560
eventually we know of uh like 15 someone

3608
04:03:38,560 --> 04:03:40,479
reached out to 15 girls who are perhaps

3609
04:03:40,479 --> 04:03:42,720
from the high school volleyball team. We

3610
04:03:42,720 --> 04:03:45,279
want to create like a a compelling

3611
04:03:45,279 --> 04:03:46,800
>> for that even kids who go through

3612
04:03:46,800 --> 04:03:48,880
college. I mean

3613
04:03:48,880 --> 04:03:50,640
even if you play then you suck. You got

3614
04:03:50,640 --> 04:03:51,680
pro you suck.

3615
04:03:51,680 --> 04:03:55,439
>> Yeah. But there isn't for adults.

3616
04:03:55,439 --> 04:03:58,080
>> No. And we've I've looked a lot at like

3617
04:03:58,080 --> 04:04:00,080
what's going on in Dallas. Obviously a

3618
04:04:00,080 --> 04:04:02,080
much larger market than Park City, but

3619
04:04:02,080 --> 04:04:04,720
Dallas is an incredibly compelling,

3620
04:04:04,720 --> 04:04:07,439
very competitive intramural

3621
04:04:07,439 --> 04:04:10,239
sports uh situation for every single age

3622
04:04:10,239 --> 04:04:14,000
up through seniors 65 plus. And I think

3623
04:04:14,000 --> 04:04:15,760
that we can continue to do that. We're

3624
04:04:15,760 --> 04:04:18,080
very tight with Basin. They are very

3625
04:04:18,080 --> 04:04:20,000
supportive of everything we're doing.

3626
04:04:20,000 --> 04:04:22,160
And I think there's a way to keep doing

3627
04:04:22,160 --> 04:04:25,600
it where like there's we can provide

3628
04:04:25,600 --> 04:04:30,160
more no cut options where I mean one

3629
04:04:30,160 --> 04:04:31,920
last anecdote we talk to Jamie about

3630
04:04:31,920 --> 04:04:33,199
this. He's heard this story like three

3631
04:04:33,199 --> 04:04:37,600
times. I was I would not have made the

3632
04:04:37,600 --> 04:04:40,239
basketball teams but my town was small

3633
04:04:40,239 --> 04:04:42,880
and I didn't grow till I was a junior

3634
04:04:42,880 --> 04:04:45,359
then senior year. I could dunk the ball

3635
04:04:45,359 --> 04:04:48,239
and was the leading scorer and I don't

3636
04:04:48,239 --> 04:04:51,279
play basketball in 2026. I was the

3637
04:04:51,279 --> 04:04:53,439
shortest kid who tell me you're not good

3638
04:04:53,439 --> 04:04:56,239
at that. You should probably do

3639
04:04:56,239 --> 04:04:58,160
something else. If we can have something

3640
04:04:58,160 --> 04:05:00,640
where our kids can play a high level of

3641
04:05:00,640 --> 04:05:03,520
sport because city league is it's a

3642
04:05:03,520 --> 04:05:05,840
pretty high level sport that is being

3643
04:05:05,840 --> 04:05:08,880
played in town and with in a kind of a

3644
04:05:08,880 --> 04:05:10,880
wreck environment. If we can keep that

3645
04:05:10,880 --> 04:05:13,439
going through high school, I I guarantee

3646
04:05:13,439 --> 04:05:15,439
you we will see kids who don't make the

3647
04:05:15,439 --> 04:05:18,239
freshman team, don't make the JV team,

3648
04:05:18,239 --> 04:05:20,160
and then develop and they've been

3649
04:05:20,160 --> 04:05:24,960
playing high level sport for 10 weeks, a year, and then both they're

3650
04:05:24,960 --> 04:05:25,760
your allstar,

3651
04:05:25,760 --> 04:05:33,030
>> right?

3652
04:05:33,040 --> 04:05:35,359
» Get ahead of it. So, we send emails out

3653
04:05:35,359 --> 04:05:37,600
ahead of time and we actually, this is

3654
04:05:37,600 --> 04:05:39,760
going to sound crazy, but we have eight

3655
04:05:39,760 --> 04:05:41,680
soccer games going. We go and talk to

3656
04:05:41,680 --> 04:05:43,680
each parent ahead of time. Are you

3657
04:05:43,680 --> 04:05:44,800
talking about the parents being crazy on

3658
04:05:44,800 --> 04:05:45,359
the sidelines?

3659
04:05:45,359 --> 04:05:47,520
>> Yeah. Or or that they expect, you know,

3660
04:05:47,520 --> 04:05:49,840
my child's going to be in the Olympics.

3661
04:05:49,840 --> 04:05:51,439
you know,

3662
04:05:51,439 --> 04:05:52,000
>> you know,

3663
04:05:52,000 --> 04:05:53,920
>> they they know what they're getting into

3664
04:05:53,920 --> 04:05:56,560
with this because they've chosen it.

3665
04:05:56,560 --> 04:05:58,560
Like, look, this is a different concept

3666
04:05:58,560 --> 04:06:00,960
of probably what you're used to, which

3667
04:06:00,960 --> 04:06:03,439
as you heard Max say, that's what a lot

3668
04:06:03,439 --> 04:06:05,680
of the parents are asking for. We're

3669
04:06:05,680 --> 04:06:06,880
already overwhelmed. Our kids are

3670
04:06:06,880 --> 04:06:08,720
overwhelmed. We'd love to get back to

3671
04:06:08,720 --> 04:06:10,319
just what this community model looks

3672
04:06:10,319 --> 04:06:13,199
like that most of us grew up on to where

3673
04:06:13,199 --> 04:06:15,520
you did that through, you know, up until

3674
04:06:15,520 --> 04:06:17,279
high school where now it's like, oh,

3675
04:06:17,279 --> 04:06:20,000
we've got these kids with $1,000 worth

3676
04:06:20,000 --> 04:06:22,239
of gear and uniforms and they're six and

3677
04:06:22,239 --> 04:06:24,000
they're going to somewhere in Louisiana

3678
04:06:24,000 --> 04:06:26,319
to play the six national championship.

3679
04:06:26,319 --> 04:06:27,920
Um, and so the parents know what they're

3680
04:06:27,920 --> 04:06:29,279
getting into because they've asked for

3681
04:06:29,279 --> 04:06:32,800
it. Um, not that we don't have issues

3682
04:06:32,800 --> 04:06:34,560
from time to time, but

3683
04:06:34,560 --> 04:06:36,960
>> So, is this like I saw your thing of

3684
04:06:36,960 --> 04:06:39,439
cost on there. So, this is more cost

3685
04:06:39,439 --> 04:06:41,600
effective for these parents that that's

3686
04:06:41,600 --> 04:06:43,520
why they don't do these leagues and they

3687
04:06:43,520 --> 04:06:46,160
don't do these travelers myself when my

3688
04:06:46,160 --> 04:06:48,960
children were young. I couldn't put $200

3689
04:06:48,960 --> 04:06:52,160
to join a club and that was 15 years

3690
04:06:52,160 --> 04:06:54,000
ago. So, I can only imagine what it is

3691
04:06:54,000 --> 04:06:57,600
now. So, do you do you have options for

3692
04:06:57,600 --> 04:07:00,080
children that can record lunch?

3693
04:07:00,080 --> 04:07:03,439
>> Yeah. So, it will be um basically if

3694
04:07:03,439 --> 04:07:05,359
you're on free lunch, free school lunch,

3695
04:07:05,359 --> 04:07:08,479
you can get believe it's 75% off. Um

3696
04:07:08,479 --> 04:07:11,040
with that said, we also

3697
04:07:11,040 --> 04:07:13,199
on the side with City League, anyone can

3698
04:07:13,199 --> 04:07:15,760
just email us anytime or we'll cover the

3699
04:07:15,760 --> 04:07:18,399
whole thing. and or for example in

3700
04:07:18,399 --> 04:07:21,439
baseball we provided the jerseys and we

3701
04:07:21,439 --> 04:07:25,359
asked for people to buy $15 gray pants

3702
04:07:25,359 --> 04:07:29,120
but said no questions asked anybody who

3703
04:07:29,120 --> 04:07:33,120
um can't doesn't can't afford that or

3704
04:07:33,120 --> 04:07:34,479
put any financial strain just let us

3705
04:07:34,479 --> 04:07:36,800
know and we just drop ship Amazon to

3706
04:07:36,800 --> 04:07:40,720
their house so it's um

3707
04:07:40,720 --> 04:07:43,760
yeah we wanted to be totally inclusive

3708
04:07:43,760 --> 04:07:46,160
for for everyone yeah for the for the

3709
04:07:46,160 --> 04:07:48,080
home school programs. We want it to be

3710
04:07:48,080 --> 04:07:50,080
very affordable. We want we don't want

3711
04:07:50,080 --> 04:07:52,479
anybody to email and say like, "Oh, we

3712
04:07:52,479 --> 04:07:54,720
can't afford it. Is there everything is

3713
04:07:54,720 --> 04:07:59,439
very affordable and and we did have some people because this year basketball

3714
04:07:59,439 --> 04:08:02,800
was $30 a person." Um, and we had a

3715
04:08:02,800 --> 04:08:05,359
couple people say, "Oh, you know, I I I

3716
04:08:05,359 --> 04:08:08,000
had to wait until today and I'm just

3717
04:08:08,000 --> 04:08:11,680
wait the kid got to got to play." So,

3718
04:08:11,680 --> 04:08:14,640
it's it's every kid who has a desire to

3719
04:08:14,640 --> 04:08:16,399
compete.

3720
04:08:16,399 --> 04:08:18,160
>> The long-term goal of City League as the

3721
04:08:18,160 --> 04:08:25,680
501c3 is was, you know, not to be somewhat of like a sports version

3722
04:08:25,680 --> 04:08:28,720
of PCF in the sense that like can we

3723
04:08:28,720 --> 04:08:30,239
we're going to kick off our fundraising

3724
04:08:30,239 --> 04:08:31,760
season this year. We want something

3725
04:08:31,760 --> 04:08:33,439
sustainable and wouldn't it be cool to

3726
04:08:33,439 --> 04:08:37,840
just make it free um down the line? Um

3727
04:08:37,840 --> 04:08:40,640
>> so, it's just great for everybody.

3728
04:08:40,640 --> 04:08:42,399
Where do you play handball?

3729
04:08:42,399 --> 04:08:44,479
>> We played it in the gym decorating.

3730
04:08:44,479 --> 04:08:46,000
>> I mean, I grew up playing handboard at

3731
04:08:46,000 --> 04:08:49,040
least. So, I used handball like nothing

3732
04:08:49,040 --> 04:08:52,960
bad in the west hand.

3733
04:08:52,960 --> 04:08:55,520
>> They're running around throwing these

3734
04:08:55,520 --> 04:08:57,359
little tiny soccer balls at each other.

3735
04:08:57,359 --> 04:08:59,040
It's fun.

3736
04:08:59,040 --> 04:09:00,560
>> We're excited about this partnership.

3737
04:09:00,560 --> 04:09:02,560
We're in the early stages of directing

3738
04:09:02,560 --> 04:09:05,279
theou. It is highly likely we will come

3739
04:09:05,279 --> 04:09:08,399
back in June with a finalou.

3740
04:09:08,399 --> 04:09:10,880
Um, thanks to Chris, Max, and Jamie.

3741
04:09:10,880 --> 04:09:12,640
Chris especially for running with this

3742
04:09:12,640 --> 04:09:14,479
idea mostly sports because that I just

3743
04:09:14,479 --> 04:09:16,800
said, "Hey, in casting, I have this idea

3744
04:09:16,800 --> 04:09:18,880
about school sports. You know how

3745
04:09:18,880 --> 04:09:20,800
passionate I am about athletics." And he

3746
04:09:20,800 --> 04:09:23,359
has ran with it. And I would say we have

3747
04:09:23,359 --> 04:09:25,359
been wildly successful in year one

3748
04:09:25,359 --> 04:09:27,600
despite the iterations

3749
04:09:27,600 --> 04:09:29,680
um and just the evolution to inter

3750
04:09:29,680 --> 04:09:31,279
murals because we couldn't get

3751
04:09:31,279 --> 04:09:33,120
partnerships with the one back school

3752
04:09:33,120 --> 04:09:35,120
districts.

3753
04:09:35,120 --> 04:09:38,720
I don't use for that. I

3754
04:09:38,720 --> 04:09:40,880
know how I feel about now that I know

3755
04:09:40,880 --> 04:09:43,910
that.

3756
04:09:43,920 --> 04:09:48,389
» I know. I know what I'm texting now.

3757
04:09:48,399 --> 04:09:55,110
» Well, thank you so much.

3758
04:09:55,120 --> 04:09:56,160
» Lori,

3759
04:09:56,160 --> 04:10:00,790
>> right

3760
04:10:00,800 --> 04:10:04,070
here.

3761
04:10:04,080 --> 04:10:20,870
Yeah, that is so

3762
04:10:20,880 --> 04:10:23,910
counselors

3763
04:10:23,920 --> 04:10:29,670
» for the kids that they have connection

3764
04:10:29,680 --> 04:10:31,600
» teach

3765
04:10:31,600 --> 04:10:33,439
>> and we even utilized some of our high

3766
04:10:33,439 --> 04:10:34,960
school teachers who have been willing to

3767
04:10:34,960 --> 04:10:37,040
go down and coach these inter murals.

3768
04:10:37,040 --> 04:10:38,800
So, it's creating that connection to the

3769
04:10:38,800 --> 04:10:42,160
high school very early.

3770
04:10:42,160 --> 04:10:48,469
>> And then they can even

04:10:48,479 --> 04:10:54,710

there's going to be kids who don't want

3846
04:14:10,239 --> 04:14:12,159

we're almost at 5,000 for student

3848
04:14:14,479 --> 04:14:18,159

3855
04:14:34,560 --> 04:14:38,319
easier. Um, there is a raffle as well.

3856
04:14:38,319 --> 04:14:40,960

3862
04:14:55,920 --> 04:14:57,680
especially not senior parents because

3863
04:14:57,680 --> 04:15:00,640
they're busy celebrating their seniors.

3864
04:15:00,640 --> 04:15:02,800
Um you don't even need to have kids to

3865
04:15:02,800 --> 04:15:04,479
volunteer.

3866
04:15:04,479 --> 04:15:09,429
All healthy hands are welcome and

There's a DJ, a photo booth, there's a

3872
04:15:22,640 --> 04:15:30,229
pigmentist coming, characteristic

3873
04:15:30,239 --> 04:15:31,840
because statistically it is a very

3874
04:15:31,840 --> 04:15:35,120
dangerous night for girls. So, and

3875
04:15:35,120 --> 04:15:37,040
they're literally just handing out money

3876
04:15:37,040 --> 04:15:38,319
at the end of the night. Like, they're

3877
04:15:38,319 --> 04:15:41,920
just like, "Take it." So, I really do,

3878
04:15:41,920 --> 04:15:45,830
you know,

3879
04:15:45,840 --> 04:15:48,319

>> Exactly.

3882
04:15:51,680 --> 04:15:53,840
And then we are working in student

3883
04:15:53,840 --> 04:15:57,680
council on serving the students on

3884
04:15:57,680 --> 04:16:00,800
school lunch and food served at PCHS and

3885
04:16:00,800 --> 04:16:02,640
working with the lunch staff to see how

3886
04:16:02,640 --> 04:16:06,080
they're feeling. So far it hasn't been

3887
04:16:06,080 --> 04:16:07,600
moved along a lot, but that is something

3888
04:16:07,600 --> 04:16:09,680
I'm working on this week and in the

3889
04:16:09,680 --> 04:16:11,840
upcoming weeks. So hopefully we can have

3890
04:16:11,840 --> 04:16:14,399
that data for the first board meeting of

3891
04:16:14,399 --> 04:16:18,000
next year. And then the school mascot,

3892
04:16:18,000 --> 04:16:21,040
another survey was sent out. Um there

3893
04:16:21,040 --> 04:16:23,040
was almost 400 people who responded to

3894
04:16:23,040 --> 04:16:26,399
this one instead of 30. So that's

3895
04:16:26,399 --> 04:16:29,279
>> a little bit more data. The main

3896
04:16:29,279 --> 04:16:33,359
consensus was 38.1% people are

3897
04:16:33,359 --> 04:16:36,960
encouraging Manny 2.0. Um the second

3898
04:16:36,960 --> 04:16:39,359
most supportive one is the moose and

3899
04:16:39,359 --> 04:16:42,800
then the third is the Yeti. I think it

3900
04:16:42,800 --> 04:16:44,479
hasn't been communicated very

3901
04:16:44,479 --> 04:16:46,159
effectively and there has been some

3902
04:16:46,159 --> 04:16:49,120
confusion among students. We will always

3903
04:16:49,120 --> 04:16:51,279
be the minors and we're not getting rid

3904
04:16:51,279 --> 04:16:54,880
of Manny. Manny just may have a friend

3905
04:16:54,880 --> 04:17:04,630
um a friend that smells better and

3906
04:17:04,640 --> 04:17:08,800
was damaged extensively last year during

3907
04:17:08,800 --> 04:17:09,920
shipment.

3908
04:17:09,920 --> 04:17:12,720
>> Yes.

3909
04:17:12,720 --> 04:17:15,840
So hopefully we can get that going. We

3910
04:17:15,840 --> 04:17:18,399
do still have conversations

3911
04:17:18,399 --> 04:17:19,920
um in student council that need to

3912
04:17:19,920 --> 04:17:22,080
happen and with administration as well,

3913
04:17:22,080 --> 04:17:24,000
but right now I think people are still

3914
04:17:24,000 --> 04:17:28,000
feeling very um loyal towards Manny. So

3915
04:17:28,000 --> 04:17:30,960
yes, but I think we will move ahead with

3916
04:17:30,960 --> 04:17:32,800
any a friend,

3917
04:17:32,800 --> 04:17:34,720
>> but we'll have to see who that friend

3918
04:17:34,720 --> 04:17:35,199
is.

3919
04:17:35,199 --> 04:17:39,910
>> A yeti, a sad spot.

3920
04:17:39,920 --> 04:17:42,560
The only thing with the moose

3921
04:17:42,560 --> 04:17:43,439
is

3922
04:17:43,439 --> 04:17:45,040
>> so I think if we do move ahead with the

3923
04:17:45,040 --> 04:17:48,399
moose, we will talk with Nolan

3924
04:17:48,399 --> 04:17:49,840
administration just to see how they

3925
04:17:49,840 --> 04:17:52,319
feel. But

3926
04:17:52,319 --> 04:17:54,239
conversations start to be had in student

3927
04:17:54,239 --> 04:17:56,720
council and among the administration to

3928
04:17:56,720 --> 04:17:58,479
see where we're moving forward with

3929
04:17:58,479 --> 04:17:58,960
this.

3930
04:17:58,960 --> 04:18:05,590
>> Marth

3931
04:18:05,600 --> 04:18:08,159
conversations about the Yeti. Maybe he

3932
04:18:08,159 --> 04:18:11,120
could wear sheet or anything. Can wear

3933
04:18:11,120 --> 04:18:14,159
ski goggles. Um, but we are keeping

3934
04:18:14,159 --> 04:18:15,680
Manny. Manny's not going in the trash

3935
04:18:15,680 --> 04:18:18,080
anytime soon.

3936
04:18:18,080 --> 04:18:23,510
>> Noted.

3937
04:18:23,520 --> 04:18:24,000
» Okay.

3938
04:18:24,000 --> 04:18:26,800
>> How was the goats and floats?

3939
04:18:26,800 --> 04:18:29,199
>> So good. I got out of my test in time to

3940
04:18:29,199 --> 04:18:32,319
go out and say hi. We thought that um

3941
04:18:32,319 --> 04:18:33,920
they might have babies just because of

3942
04:18:33,920 --> 04:18:35,359
the season they would be a little older,

3943
04:18:35,359 --> 04:18:37,840
but they were babies and they were so

3944
04:18:37,840 --> 04:18:39,199
cute.

3945
04:18:39,199 --> 04:18:41,680
>> Yes. I think for next year,

3946
04:18:41,680 --> 04:18:43,680
>> teacher appreciation week isn't going to

3947
04:18:43,680 --> 04:18:46,560
be the national week just because of AP

3948
04:18:46,560 --> 04:18:49,760
testing. And from a personal standpoint,

3949
04:18:49,760 --> 04:18:51,359
since I was kind of a lead on that, it

3950
04:18:51,359 --> 04:18:53,920
was very difficult to try and manage.

3951
04:18:53,920 --> 04:18:56,880
And I think the main not necessarily

3952
04:18:56,880 --> 04:18:58,720
complaints but feedback from teachers

3953
04:18:58,720 --> 04:19:02,239
were it would just be a lot smoother and

3954
04:19:02,239 --> 04:19:06,000
easier if it was not AP testing time.

3955
04:19:06,000 --> 04:19:07,680
>> Who brought the

3956
04:19:07,680 --> 04:19:08,960
>> I have a go guide. His name is

3957
04:19:08,960 --> 04:19:10,640
Francisco.

3958
04:19:10,640 --> 04:19:15,750
>> She got the guy.

3959
04:19:15,760 --> 04:19:17,040
» Francisco brought the goat.

3960
04:19:17,040 --> 04:19:19,920
>> I know. My mom told me about

3961
04:19:19,920 --> 04:19:21,760
>> I found him on Facebook and I messaged

3962
04:19:21,760 --> 04:19:23,520
him. I was like, "Can they travel?" He

3963
04:19:23,520 --> 04:19:26,319
was like, "Yes, let's do it."

3964
04:19:26,319 --> 04:19:28,239
>> Actually, a park center graduate. So, it

3965
04:19:28,239 --> 04:19:37,110
was amazing that we could partner with

3966
04:19:37,120 --> 04:19:39,600
» somewhere. Will you continue with us

3967
04:19:39,600 --> 04:19:41,040
next school year?

3968
04:19:41,040 --> 04:19:48,950
>> Oh, yes.

3969
04:19:48,960 --> 04:19:50,720
» I have one question. Can we survey the

3970
04:19:50,720 --> 04:19:55,110
kids about their lunch as well?

3971
04:19:55,120 --> 04:19:56,319
run that show.

3972
04:19:56,319 --> 04:19:59,040
>> Well, he tried. So, he he tried putting

3973
04:19:59,040 --> 04:20:02,080
together a document that that everyone

3974
04:20:02,080 --> 04:20:03,359
could sign, but here's what's happening

3975
04:20:03,359 --> 04:20:06,080
at Echo. Kids keep trying to do that and

3976
04:20:06,080 --> 04:20:07,760
some other kid will just go in and ruin

3977
04:20:07,760 --> 04:20:08,560
it.

3978
04:20:08,560 --> 04:20:10,239
>> So, that's that's what happened. So, he

3979
04:20:10,239 --> 04:20:12,479
had he had a few thousand signatures and

3980
04:20:12,479 --> 04:20:13,840
then he got ruined.

3981
04:20:13,840 --> 04:20:16,479
>> Do you guys work with Ed's leadership

3982
04:20:16,479 --> 04:20:20,319
class? We don't. But I think that we I

3983
04:20:20,319 --> 04:20:22,479
can definitely optimally about creating

3984
04:20:22,479 --> 04:20:25,359
maybe a team building or mentorship

3985
04:20:25,359 --> 04:20:27,840
>> even like quarterly guys that got

3986
04:20:27,840 --> 04:20:29,680
together.

3987
04:20:29,680 --> 04:20:32,479
>> Okay. And I have a for the Memorial Day

3988
04:20:32,479 --> 04:20:34,720
service on Monday at the Park City

3989
04:20:34,720 --> 04:20:38,479
Center. I have Coen Nelson is our high

3990
04:20:38,479 --> 04:20:40,560
school. We'll be playing trumpet for

3991
04:20:40,560 --> 04:20:43,359
them

3992
04:20:43,359 --> 04:20:49,269
at 10. At 10.

3993
04:20:49,279 --> 04:20:51,279
Thank you.

3994
04:20:51,279 --> 04:20:57,349
>> She's got a goat guy like that.

3995
04:20:57,359 --> 04:21:03,830
» That was worth saying

3996
04:21:03,840 --> 04:21:06,479
goat.

3997
04:21:06,479 --> 04:21:08,560
>> Okay. because we

3998
04:21:08,560 --> 04:21:10,399
are pulling the release time to get a

3999
04:21:10,399 --> 04:21:13,120
little more feedback from parents at

4000
04:21:13,120 --> 04:21:15,199
elementary schools or just make sure

4001
04:21:15,199 --> 04:21:16,720
that they're aware that we need to make

4002
04:21:16,720 --> 04:21:18,159
this adjustment.

4003
04:21:18,159 --> 04:21:21,920
>> We've got two decision items. The board

4004
04:21:21,920 --> 04:21:24,640
meeting calendar for

4005
04:21:24,640 --> 04:21:29,040
the next school year and so should we do

4006
04:21:29,040 --> 04:21:30,479
these separately? Yes.

4007
04:21:30,479 --> 04:21:33,680
>> Yeah. My question is on the calendar

4008
04:21:33,680 --> 04:21:35,840
um as I've been sitting here, do we want

4009
04:21:35,840 --> 04:21:41,199
to survey parents of rising 10th through

4010
04:21:41,199 --> 04:21:43,279
12th graders because this would impact

4011
04:21:43,279 --> 04:21:45,840
their students first day of school. So

4012
04:21:45,840 --> 04:21:47,199
their first day of school wouldn't be

4013
04:21:47,199 --> 04:21:49,680
until August 20th.

4014
04:21:49,680 --> 04:21:52,560
Freshman or I should say prek to

4015
04:21:52,560 --> 04:21:58,149
freshman would be August 19th.

4016
04:21:58,159 --> 04:21:58,720
Oh,

4017
04:21:58,720 --> 04:22:03,269
>> I don't know that that needs as much

4018
04:22:03,279 --> 04:22:06,880
as a change in

4019
04:22:06,880 --> 04:22:09,359
15 through 18 year olds.

4020
04:22:09,359 --> 04:22:12,710
>> They're self-sufficient.

4021
04:22:12,720 --> 04:22:15,680
» They just need to know about from your

4022
04:22:15,680 --> 04:22:19,520
perspective as a Well, I guess you went

4023
04:22:19,520 --> 04:22:24,399
to ninth grade at Treasure, huh? Would

4024
04:22:24,399 --> 04:22:26,399
picture yourself entering the new high

4025
04:22:26,399 --> 04:22:30,399
school with 1500 kids, would a day just

4026
04:22:30,399 --> 04:22:33,439
with your peers in ninth grade have been

4027
04:22:33,439 --> 04:22:34,159
helpful?

4028
04:22:34,159 --> 04:22:36,720
>> I was talking to Miss Luke about it and

4029
04:22:36,720 --> 04:22:39,359
I think yes, because even going from

4030
04:22:39,359 --> 04:22:41,840
Echer to Treasure was really scary for

4031
04:22:41,840 --> 04:22:44,720
me. Not necessarily because it was like

4032
04:22:44,720 --> 04:22:46,800
a different school. Well, that too, but

4033
04:22:46,800 --> 04:22:48,640
just like you're thrown into a

4034
04:22:48,640 --> 04:22:51,279
completely new group of kids. And like

4035
04:22:51,279 --> 04:22:53,120
they touched on earlier, like

4036
04:22:53,120 --> 04:22:55,439
developmentally you're so different. And

4037
04:22:55,439 --> 04:22:58,640
walking in as a fresh ninth grader,

4038
04:22:58,640 --> 04:23:02,000
staring up at a senior who's like a full

4039
04:23:02,000 --> 04:23:04,159
grown adult, you're just like, I have no

4040
04:23:04,159 --> 04:23:06,239
idea what to do. You're trying to find

4041
04:23:06,239 --> 04:23:09,120
your class and like even though I had

4042
04:23:09,120 --> 04:23:11,359
experience at the high school because I

4043
04:23:11,359 --> 04:23:13,439
walked back and forth, this year with

4044
04:23:13,439 --> 04:23:15,040
the new addition, I was like

4045
04:23:15,040 --> 04:23:17,439
overwhelmed. And I think letting them

4046
04:23:17,439 --> 04:23:21,520
walk through and get to know the layout

4047
04:23:21,520 --> 04:23:23,920
and the culture of the school is a

4048
04:23:23,920 --> 04:23:28,000
really amazing idea.

4049
04:23:28,000 --> 04:23:30,000
>> It's very common across high schools.

4050
04:23:30,000 --> 04:23:32,159
This is not seems like a big

4051
04:23:32,159 --> 04:23:34,159
>> Don't we do it for the elementary going

4052
04:23:34,159 --> 04:23:35,359
into ether?

4053
04:23:35,359 --> 04:23:36,560
>> We do not.

4054
04:23:36,560 --> 04:23:39,920
>> No, there's several

4055
04:23:39,920 --> 04:23:42,960
>> now. They do they do structure how they

4056
04:23:42,960 --> 04:23:44,960
spend the first couple of days of school

4057
04:23:44,960 --> 04:23:48,000
with uh sixth graders. They're with

4058
04:23:48,000 --> 04:23:50,080
their advisory and they spend a lot of

4059
04:23:50,080 --> 04:23:52,800
time te building helping them navigate

4060
04:23:52,800 --> 04:23:55,600
the school according to their schedule.

4061
04:23:55,600 --> 04:23:57,600
But they don't excuse seventh and eighth

4062
04:23:57,600 --> 04:23:58,960
graders on that first day of school.

4063
04:23:58,960 --> 04:24:02,080
They don't start

4064
04:24:02,080 --> 04:24:06,469
their own

4065
04:24:06,479 --> 04:24:09,199
nth grade orientation.

4066
04:24:09,199 --> 04:24:11,439
Great idea.

4067
04:24:11,439 --> 04:24:14,870
>> So,

4068
04:24:14,880 --> 04:24:17,359
» yeah. So, the motion would be that the

4069
04:24:17,359 --> 04:24:21,199
first day of school for prek to 9th

4070
04:24:21,199 --> 04:24:24,239
grade. First, we have the board learning

4071
04:24:24,239 --> 04:24:27,670
calendar.

4072
04:24:27,680 --> 04:24:30,399
» There's two decision items.

4073
04:24:30,399 --> 04:24:31,920
First, we have the board meeting

4074
04:24:31,920 --> 04:24:32,960
calendar,

4075
04:24:32,960 --> 04:24:35,199
>> which I would propose we shift the

4076
04:24:35,199 --> 04:24:37,439
August board meeting from the 18th

4077
04:24:37,439 --> 04:24:40,080
through the 20 to the 25th

4078
04:24:40,080 --> 04:24:41,760
>> because the first day of school is on

4079
04:24:41,760 --> 04:24:43,040
the 19th.

4080
04:24:43,040 --> 04:24:45,840
>> Oh, yes.

4081
04:24:45,840 --> 04:24:46,560
>> Yeah.

4082
04:24:46,560 --> 04:24:49,359
>> And I don't want to be here till 7:00 on

4083
04:24:49,359 --> 04:24:49,760
the evening.

4084
04:24:49,760 --> 04:24:51,439
>> We don't want to bring teachers in the

4085
04:24:51,439 --> 04:24:53,760
18th. approval.

4086
04:24:53,760 --> 04:24:55,920
>> So that so approving the calendar would

4087
04:24:55,920 --> 04:24:59,199
that change of the August date?

4088
04:24:59,199 --> 04:25:01,760
>> We change November 17th to the 24th,

4089
04:25:01,760 --> 04:25:05,349
please.

4090
04:25:05,359 --> 04:25:15,750
» No, Tuesday is 2027.

4091
04:25:15,760 --> 04:25:18,960
» 26. So it be August 18th.

4092
04:25:18,960 --> 04:25:22,399
>> Yeah. from the 18th to the 25th because

4093
04:25:22,399 --> 04:25:24,640
the first day of school is Wednesday the

4094
04:25:24,640 --> 04:25:31,030
19th.

4095
04:25:31,040 --> 04:25:35,750
» Okay.

4096
04:25:35,760 --> 04:25:38,399
» There was another one that originally

4097
04:25:38,399 --> 04:25:40,560
that you that Lori had sent out that

4098
04:25:40,560 --> 04:25:42,080
were different than what was on the

4099
04:25:42,080 --> 04:25:43,840
calendar.

4100
04:25:43,840 --> 04:25:46,479
>> I think it was February maybe. Was that

4101
04:25:46,479 --> 04:25:49,199
because of break?

4102
04:25:49,199 --> 04:25:51,359
February and the April one are kind of

4103
04:25:51,359 --> 04:25:53,520
launching because of any breaks. So we

4104
04:25:53,520 --> 04:25:55,680
can either have it before or after

4105
04:25:55,680 --> 04:26:01,590
whichever. I just kind of what

4106
04:26:01,600 --> 04:26:04,560
if we go the week before break

4107
04:26:04,560 --> 04:26:06,880
um

4108
04:26:06,880 --> 04:26:09,680
we just get into this weird cadence of

4109
04:26:09,680 --> 04:26:13,040
the 30-day posting period if we have

4110
04:26:13,040 --> 04:26:15,040
curriculum adoptions and

4111
04:26:15,040 --> 04:26:16,560
>> etc.

4112
04:26:16,560 --> 04:26:20,710
>> This is the one in February.

4113
04:26:20,720 --> 04:26:22,479
» Which one was it that was different? It

4114
04:26:22,479 --> 04:26:22,880
was

4115
04:26:22,880 --> 04:26:24,560
>> February 9th would be different. Yeah,

4116
04:26:24,560 --> 04:26:26,800
February 9th. We'd go that Tuesday of

4117
04:26:26,800 --> 04:26:30,560
February. Um or it would be the 23rd of

4118
04:26:30,560 --> 04:26:32,560
February because right now it's not I

4119
04:26:32,560 --> 04:26:34,159
have from what you found out last year

4120
04:26:34,159 --> 04:26:36,399
was on the 16th.

4121
04:26:36,399 --> 04:26:38,399
>> That's the middle

4122
04:26:38,399 --> 04:26:48,950
of the night. Okay.

4123
04:26:48,960 --> 04:26:50,800
» We can always adjust these as we need,

4124
04:26:50,800 --> 04:26:52,560
right? You just have to send it in as

4125
04:26:52,560 --> 04:26:54,479
our adopted calendar.

4126
04:26:54,479 --> 04:26:56,399
>> Yeah, because we have

4127
04:26:56,399 --> 04:27:01,030
>> Yeah, it's just not the current.

4128
04:27:01,040 --> 04:27:04,479
» So, I make the motion to approve the

4129
04:27:04,479 --> 04:27:07,760
board meeting calendar with the August

4130
04:27:07,760 --> 04:27:09,359
meeting moved

4131
04:27:09,359 --> 04:27:13,030
>> from the 18th.

4132
04:27:13,040 --> 04:27:13,840
» That's it.

4133
04:27:13,840 --> 04:27:15,760
>> I second.

4134
04:27:15,760 --> 04:27:19,600
>> All in favor? I I Okay, now it's your

4135
04:27:19,600 --> 04:27:23,680
turn. Okay. So, I believe the motion

4136
04:27:23,680 --> 04:27:25,840
would be the first day of school would

4137
04:27:25,840 --> 04:27:29,120
remain on Wednesday, August 19th from

4138
04:27:29,120 --> 04:27:32,479
prek to 9th grade. We would ship the

4139
04:27:32,479 --> 04:27:34,640
first day of school for grades 10

4140
04:27:34,640 --> 04:27:38,239
through 12 to Thursday, August 20th.

4141
04:27:38,239 --> 04:27:40,800
That still keeps us within the window of

4142
04:27:40,800 --> 04:27:42,720
the required

4143
04:27:42,720 --> 04:27:44,720
um

4144
04:27:44,720 --> 04:27:51,349
school days for students.

4145
04:27:51,359 --> 04:27:59,110
Will this affect any?

4146
04:27:59,120 --> 04:28:02,800
» No, they would still report. Um, and

4147
04:28:02,800 --> 04:28:04,800
speaking with Caleb and his team, they

4148
04:28:04,800 --> 04:28:08,159
want this to be an all mans on deck. Um,

4149
04:28:08,159 --> 04:28:12,239
so staff would report as if 9 through 12

4150
04:28:12,239 --> 04:28:17,990
was in the building.

4151
04:28:18,000 --> 04:28:19,920
Motion to approve the freshman first

4152
04:28:19,920 --> 04:28:21,199
session.

4153
04:28:21,199 --> 04:28:23,120
>> Second.

4154
04:28:23,120 --> 04:28:28,070
>> All in favor?

4155
04:28:28,080 --> 04:28:30,640
» We're scratching 723 for right now.

4156
04:28:30,640 --> 04:28:31,199
>> Correct.

4157
04:28:31,199 --> 04:28:34,640
>> Okay. We have

4158
04:28:34,640 --> 04:28:37,040
the following policies for posting.

4159
04:28:37,040 --> 04:28:38,640
These policies have been reviewed by the

4160
04:28:38,640 --> 04:28:40,159
policy committee and are now before the

4161
04:28:40,159 --> 04:28:44,080
board for posting. Policy 7097,

4162
04:28:44,080 --> 04:28:47,040
nepotism. Policy 7160, orderly

4163
04:28:47,040 --> 04:28:52,479
termination. Policy 9025, wellness.

4164
04:28:52,479 --> 04:28:55,520
>> I make a motion to approve

4165
04:28:55,520 --> 04:28:58,239
policies for closing.

4166
04:28:58,239 --> 04:28:59,520
>> One second.

4167
04:28:59,520 --> 04:29:01,840
>> All in favor? I.

4168
04:29:01,840 --> 04:29:05,279
>> Okay. Squeaking in under the wire here

4169
04:29:05,279 --> 04:29:08,239
before 7 p.m.

4170
04:29:08,239 --> 04:29:10,080
Oh, I need a motion. Yes. I'd like to

4171
04:29:10,080 --> 04:29:12,560
adjourn to our next meeting.

4172
04:29:12,560 --> 04:29:13,920
>> I have a second. All in
