[0:05] Good evening and welcome to the school committee meeting of Tuesday, September

[0:08] 8th. Um we'll move on to a moment of silence for um a former teacher and

[0:16] baseball coach um Fred Brown. He gave decades of contributions to families and

[0:22] students of Rockland. So we'll just have a couple of seconds for Mr. Brown.

[0:35] Thank you. And we appreciate all of his contributions to us over the years. Um,

[0:40] we'll move on to the pledge of allegiance.

[0:44] » I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the

[0:49] republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and

[0:54] justice for all.

[1:00] Oh, my chair tipped. Um, with nothing under audience, we'll move on to old

[1:06] business with teaching and learning update with Jen.

[1:10] » Sure. Thank you so much. So, it will be quick, but I think uh I think you'll be

[1:14] pleased and everyone that's watching at home will be pleased as well to see we

[1:18] have kicked off the year with some uh important professional development

[1:22] opportunities. Overall for the district, we have been focusing on for general

[1:27] education and our par profofessionals u the multi-tered system of supports. So

[1:32] that's really looking at what do we need to do at tier one what's happening right

[1:36] within the classroom each and every day tier tier two for some of our kiddos

[1:40] that might need a little bit of extra support and then tier three for some

[1:44] extensive support that might be needed. So, we've started off by talking about

[1:48] that and we have it scheduled out throughout the year for different

[1:51] opportunities. Uh, special education, all of our special education staff came

[1:56] together, our teaching staff and our rel related service providers to work with

[2:01] um Alan Bloom is the gentleman's name and uh Mr. Plume has a whole methodology

[2:08] to create goals and benchmark for our benchmarks for our IEPs that really will

[2:14] help streamline the process and really help us dig in deeper making sure that

[2:18] we have the data that's needed to look at are we achieving those goals and the

[2:22] benchmarks within a period of time that we want to be successful with. Do we

[2:25] need to tweak things? And that also has been spread out through the entire year

[2:29] and he will be coming back for some follow-up professional development. And

[2:33] then paraprofessionals and our mobile RV van drivers, we have decided that they

[2:38] are going to be working together um on a professional development module on

[2:43] attention deficit hyperactivity disorders um and supporting students

[2:48] varied varied needs that may fall within that um that area of ADHD. And then when

[2:55] we look at the different things that are happening across our buildings, I'm not

[2:58] going to read each one, but it's a recap of all the different grants and the

[3:01] spectacular happening happenings that you uh we talked about a little bit last

[3:05] time. And just to follow up again that you can see

[3:08] » prek all the way up to high school, postgrad. There are exciting things

[3:13] happening for teaching and learning across the district and a lot to be

[3:16] really proud of. a lot of staff effort has gone into gaining and being awarded

[3:22] these different grants and these different initiatives that we're working

[3:25] on and that is something that will happen um and be continue to be

[3:29] addressed throughout the school year. And basically the big thing, the most

[3:33] important thing to share out is that on September 2nd, u all of our students,

[3:38] not in our early education program, they're coming very soon tomorrow, but

[3:42] all of our um kiddos that are in grades uh one and beyond, they came on

[3:48] September 2nd and they were happy. >> They were excited to be here. If you

[3:52] were down at Phelps in that area at all, the music was blasting. Uh kids were

[3:57] dancing, staff were dancing, everyone was happy as could be. We then went our,

[4:01] you know, up the road a little bit to the middle school and the high school.

[4:04] Um, everyone really was happy about coming back to school. I had shared with

[4:10] Superintendent Hacket that I was behind a couple of students that were

[4:15] complimenting each other's outfits and how excited they were to be back. Um,

[4:19] and they I mean didn't know that I was hearing this, but it was just really

[4:23] nice to see, >> right? And first and foremost, they were

[4:27] happy, they seemed healthy, and our staff was there to support them on that

[4:32] first day. And I think uh making our students and our staff feel as though

[4:37] they belong is the foundation that we really want to achieve and develop on,

[4:42] right? >> And I think all of our staff was

[4:43] successful doing that. >> Excellent.

[4:46] » Great. Any questions on anything? Well, I'd love to know what the high

[4:52] dosage tutoring is, but we don't have to go into that now if you want. I I think

[4:56] it's it's interesting. Uh just looking I I feel like some of these we definitely

[5:00] have heard of the the literacy grant and the innovation pathways and the dual

[5:04] enrollment, but that high dosage tutoring caught my eye. So, at at the at

[5:08] Phelps Elementary, um they as a team, this district, the school bu district,

[5:13] and the building applied for a grant to provide intensive tutoring to some of

[5:18] our students that may be at risk for um literacy needs. And the Department of Ed

[5:24] awarded us this grant. And it doesn't uh it doesn't come with a dollar figure,

[5:28] per se. It comes with staff that will come out and do intensive tutoring with

[5:34] the kids on top of what they're already getting from our own staff. Okay.

[5:39] » Uh Kelsey Hullbrook uh was really a proponent behind getting this off the

[5:44] ground. We had this last year as well. So this is a continuation and something

[5:50] that we saw great success with last year. Um, and I can also share some more

[5:53] information with you as we move forward, just um, how many kids are

[5:57] participating, how often they're getting the services as we go along in our next

[6:01] teaching and learning update if that's helpful.

[6:03] » Yeah. No, that would be great just um, hearing, you know, all these different

[6:07] opportunities and supports that are out there is really great to especially at

[6:11] that age when they they might need it. So,

[6:14] » absolutely, the earlier we can really identify this and work on this, the

[6:18] better. >> Awesome.

[6:22] Thank you. >> Sure.

[6:23] » Nope. That's it. >> All right. Thank you very much. Great

[6:26] update. Great first update for teaching and learning.

[6:31] » Thank you. Thank you very much.

[6:35] » We'll move on to new business budget calendars. We'll pass this now to

[6:40] Katie. You're just sharing the whole table over there.

[6:43] » Welcome Katie to your first school committee meeting. I'm sorry to have

[6:47] missed the first meeting of the year, but I'm happy to be here now. Um, so

[6:52] we're going to be reviewing the district's budget calendar tonight. And

[6:57] I'm trying to share my screen. I don't not sure if it's Give it one second. See

[7:04] if that pops out of the booth. We are very spoiled here that we are on site at

[7:08] WRPS. We have >> the HMDI is not working.

[7:11] » I'm not sure if it's computer.

[7:16] Okay, >> it's all right.

[7:18] » So, I think there's a copy of the budget calendar in each one of your packets and

[7:23] we can um make a point to distribute it um to the larger community after the

[7:30] meeting is over and I apologize for not being able to share it. I think it would

[7:34] be >> technology happens

[7:35] » helpful to see it, but that's okay for tonight.

[7:38] » You have what you need though on your screen?

[7:40] » I do. Yes. Thank you. >> You're welcome. Don't worry. technology

[7:44] happens. >> Jane and I can vouch for you.

[7:46] » It is a fabulous thing >> and it's something that everyone can

[7:49] look forward to seeing.

[7:55] » So the budget calendar, a few important points before we go through some of the

[8:00] details in the budget calendar that I just wanted to make sure everyone was

[8:05] aware of um is that the budget calendar is a draft and that it is subject to

[8:11] change. Um the budget calendar is organized

[8:15] pretty much by season. So we talk about some of the work that was completed over

[8:19] the summer months. We talk about what will happen currently in the fall

[8:24] months. Um some of the work as it continues through the winter and then um

[8:28] some of the closeout work that will happen over the spring. A lot of the

[8:33] work is continuous. So you'll see um some of the same items that we will um

[8:40] work on in each one of the seasons. Um and I think it's really important for

[8:46] everyone to know that when we talk about the budget and when we look at the

[8:49] budget timeline, we truly are always living in three fiscal years. So it's

[8:55] really important for us to be strong in looking at the history of the previous

[9:00] fiscal year. And that's a lot of the work that you can see happened over the

[9:04] summer months with the fiscal year 26 close out. Um we're also it's very

[9:11] important for us to make sure that there are strong administration of the current

[9:16] budget that we're living in. So the fiscal year 27 budget. So you'll see

[9:21] throughout the budget calendar that there will be um continuous monthly

[9:25] budget reporting and that's um how the budget information has been previously

[9:31] reported in the past. So we'll continue that and then we'll also do some

[9:36] quarterly reporting with a memo that is attached to it and that will just

[9:40] provide you some context of um this is the budget picture to date. These are

[9:46] some of the projections that we're looking at for the rest of the fiscal

[9:50] year and these are some of the impacts that we may see going into the upcoming

[9:55] fiscal year. And so always looking at the past year, the present year and then

[10:01] very importantly all of that information is helping us build the budget for the

[10:06] upcoming year. And so you can see that that work will start soon. So, the

[10:11] fiscal year 28 budget building process will happen over the fall. That will

[10:17] start very soon. Um, and that will continue over the winter leading up to

[10:22] town meeting in the spring, which is in May. Um, why the budget calendar is

[10:29] important and why um, we thought it was really important to bring this all to

[10:33] you and to talk about this tonight. Um, we want to make sure that the budget

[10:38] isn't just a single financial document. Um, we want it to be thoughtful, we want

[10:44] it to be transparent, and we want it to be collaborative. And so the budget

[10:49] calendar truly um is an effort to make the entire process transparent and

[10:55] collaborative not only um within the district and the employees, the

[11:01] students, the staff and everyone that um enters the Rockland public schools, but

[11:07] also with the community at large. So, we do partner with the folks at town hall

[11:12] to talk about so many different we have so many different shared costs. Um, and

[11:18] also just our community members. We always try to remember that um we truly

[11:24] are making sure that we are representing the taxpayers here in Rockland. Um, and

[11:30] we want to we want them to all know that we're investing their funds wisely. Um,

[11:35] so again, I apologize that the document in the calendar wasn't shared. Um, I

[11:40] really value and we all value feedback. So, um, we're looking forward to working

[11:46] with everyone throughout the budget process um, this year and into the next

[11:51] several years. Um, and if there are any updates or changes that we can make,

[11:56] again, this is a draft. we can update it as we finalize and schedule some of the

[12:02] meetings um that will happen throughout the year. Uh and we'll make sure to

[12:07] share this out with folks so that we can solicit some more feedback and continue

[12:12] to update it. >> All right. Thank you very much. I think

[12:15] it's impressive to have um I know that we always talk about this year and next

[12:20] year and the next year and we hear it coming and it's coming and um I know

[12:24] when we're aligning budgets and things this is sort of in our minds and on the

[12:30] horizon but it's never been like in a document setup and I think that's

[12:33] impressive. It does make it sort of um for the people that don't sort of talk

[12:39] budget all the time this sort of spells it out in an easier fashion. Um, and I

[12:44] think that that is huge for transparency, huge for understanding of

[12:49] what we are doing. Um, we are the biggest budget um, in the town of

[12:53] Rockland and we know that and so we do try to be um, as transparent as possible

[12:58] and I think this just adds to it. So, thank you. I I when I was flipping

[13:03] through this over the weekend, I was impressed. Great.

[13:05] » So, thank you for spelling it all out. >> Of course.

[13:08] » Do you ladies have questions? >> Would like adoption of this this

[13:11] evening? Yes. >> So, it can be shared. So

[13:13] » y >> a motion to adopt.

[13:15] » If we adopt then we're not because this is fluid. If we adopt it, we adopting it

[13:20] as fluid so that it can change. It's just being adopted so it can be shared.

[13:24] Correct. >> Correct. Setting it in. We've discussed

[13:27] this in various places but we have not shared it until we had school committee

[13:31] authoriz um school committee authorization to do so. But we're going

[13:36] to FinCom on the 23rd. Right. >> And we wanted to bring this calendar

[13:40] with them. >> Okay. um with us

[13:43] » um to go over. >> Okay.

[13:45] » Okay. >> Any questions?

[13:46] » So, there are no specific dates. It's seasonal.

[13:48] » Okay. Perfect. >> Yeah. Um and it's compliant with our

[13:51] policies and procedures um that you approved at the last meeting.

[13:56] » And you know, I think it's a great step, you know, by Katie um coming forward

[14:01] with transparency and increased community and stakeholder engagement.

[14:05] » I agree process. So, very excited about it.

[14:09] » Yes. >> Any questions?

[14:12] No questions. And I think that word um that has been spoken about transparency

[14:16] because there is a lot of work that happens and um I think having it

[14:22] organized and and I know three pages of bullets that really, you know, are one

[14:28] item that says we do this. There's a lot more to that, right? So this is really

[14:33] um maybe just calling out some of the higher level things that happen. Um, so

[14:38] I think it's it's great and um not only will it be shared, but I think um the

[14:43] goal is to also share it with the public, not just town administrative

[14:47] buildings and and other departments. It this hopefully will, I think, be put on

[14:52] our school website and stuff like that. >> Yes. Which we are revamping. Y

[14:56] » um and meeting on it again tomorrow um at 3

[15:00] o'clock and this will go right up on it. We got the policies and procedures up

[15:04] last week. Um, and we'll put this up as well.

[15:07] » Very good. >> Okay.

[15:08] » I don't have anything else. >> Entertain a motion to

[15:12] » motion to adopt the Rockland Public Schools budget calendar.

[15:18] » Second. All those in favor? That's a vote. Thank you.

[15:23] Now, we'll move on to our homeschool requests.

[15:27] Um we have 33 I believe we counted for our

[15:33] homeschool requests. Um anything to add to that?

[15:38] » No, I would I would recommend that uh school committee does accept these um

[15:43] applications and the information that was provided to us. I did go through

[15:46] each of them. Uh they were very well done.

[15:49] » Um and I think you know something that I I do not have any concern over

[15:53] recommending. >> Okay, great. Thank you. Any questions?

[15:56] Nope. Um I thought we did get an email with an updated Was there one or two

[16:02] extra. So I just want to make sure that we're counting the right number. I don't

[16:07] know if we >> cover page should have been replaced.

[16:10] » Oh. Oh, okay. >> But the second cover page.

[16:13] » Okay. Um well then um I don't have any other questions.

[16:17] » I noticed in a lot of the packets it says will um provide like a progress

[16:22] report if requested. Do you ever well do request them ever or do like a yearly

[16:28] check-in or anything along those lines? >> So frequently um Denise Berno

[16:32] » Yeah. >> who um is in the office with me as well

[16:36] will reach out and remind everyone that there are certain documents that we

[16:41] would like them to send to us each year >> and frequently after she does that all

[16:46] the other information starts coming in. Okay. So that was part of the different

[16:49] packets that I did review, portfolios of work that was done, grading that

[16:54] happened, um some of the the different um homeschooling network groups that are

[17:01] out there that um work with families um collaboratively. So not just it's not

[17:07] just a family specific. >> Yeah, exactly. Um so yes, we do get

[17:11] that. >> I was just curious.

[17:12] » Yeah. Do we get it all the time? No, we don't. But um I found that we had a lot

[17:17] that came in. I was actually really impressed with the amount of people that

[17:20] did send in >> uh after it was sent out the email to

[17:23] request for that and then the just the caliber of what was sent in was very

[17:26] good. >> Perfect.

[17:30] » Entertain a motion. >> Entertain a motion to um approve the

[17:36] homeschool requests for the 2627 school year.

[17:40] » Second. >> All those in favor? That's a vote.

[17:45] And now we'll go on to the fundraisers.

[17:51] Um, we have RHS student government's project pumpkin trick-or-treating in the

[17:56] high school hallways for children. The funds go to the student government

[17:59] council account. And this seems to be on October 17th this year. So get your

[18:06] trick-or-treaters and their costumes ready.

[18:10] Next, we have RHS student government for homecoming dance. The RHS students buy

[18:15] tickets and funds go to student government council and that will be on

[18:19] October 24th this year. Get your dresses and suits ready. And then Julia Danszio

[18:25] has a class of 2027 through the 2020 30 class t-shirts for pep rally funds to

[18:32] raise money for all the classes. No questions. Love all the candy talk

[18:38] already for October events. Um, so, um, motion to approve the three requested

[18:44] fundraisers. >> Second. All those in favor? It's odd

[18:48] just being the three of us. I keep waiting for others.

[18:51] » All right. Now, we'll move on to Superintendent Hackit's superintendent

[18:56] to report. >> There we go. Thank you very much. Um, so

[18:59] we have been very busy since um, we were last together welcoming our new staff

[19:04] and our experienced staff. who have held our new employee orientation run by Jan

[19:09] Chan, including a bus tour um of Rockland led by Fred Damon.

[19:14] » Um we uh our opening convocation was brief um getting staff to where they

[19:25] fabulous opening with grades 1 through 12 reporting um last week. is, you know,

[19:30] Jen said it was a lot of fun on day one, but maybe day two in the rain was even a

[19:36] little bit more fun. Uh, welcoming everyone welcoming everyone back. Um,

[20:42] » So, it's all very exciting. And thank you to Noel Novio. The the

[20:46] transportation coordination and effort that has gone on um over the course of

[20:51] the last, you know, several weeks is just, as we all know, intensive, labor

[20:57] intensive, >> um, and patience and kindness, and she

[21:01] does everything that she can to get every kiddo on a bus as soon as

[21:05] possible. Um, but there are safety processes and procedures we need to do

[21:10] um, and need to follow and first student needs to follow to make sure that the

[21:14] kiddos are on the register. So, when they do the bus clearing, the bus

[21:18] checks, etc. So, there is work that goes on. It's not as simple as, you know,

[21:22] Jane, get on a bus, >> right? there's work in the background.

[21:25] So, um so thank you to Noel um for all that. Um I'm very pleased to report and

[21:31] I know Dr. Mars Small um is working this evening, but there's been a tremendous

[21:37] improvement on the ebike um and bicycle activity um on school property. Um and

[21:45] folks, Joe was me, you were mentioning tonight that you've noticed it

[21:48] throughout the town, >> right?

[21:49] » Um the kiddos are following the rules, following the regulations. They're

[21:53] wearing their helmets um and they are not congregating here even on the

[21:57] weekends. >> No.

[21:58] » Um in the drive-thru. So, a huge shout out to the police department um for all

[22:02] their efforts um regarding that. Thank you to Tom Resky who donated a crew and

[22:08] materials to landscape the front of the high school um before the start of

[22:12] school and plant the moms from um so we're very grateful to him for that

[22:17] work. And then our senior uh representative uh Nola Finn has been

[22:22] accepted to the department of elementary and secondary education's advisory group

[22:27] on the state high school graduation frameworks.

[22:31] » Impressive. >> And she will be attending meetings in

[23:23] » That was a lot. That was a lot. >> It's been a great week,

[23:26] » I guess. So, um, yes, I noticed over the weekend, um,

[23:30] that we saw no, as just driving around and doing whatever, there were no kids

[23:36] with no helmets on. Such a big difference compared to just even two

[23:40] weeks ago, there was hardly any kids with a helmet on. So, I am impressed

[23:45] » with RPD for that. Um, and that's all you have. Any questions on the

[23:51] superintendent report? >> No. Okay, we'll move on to public

[23:55] service announcements and I'll start with our student representatives, Miss

[23:58] Nolafin. Welcome again. >> Um, August was a great end to the summer

[24:04] and start to the school year. The student council ran a leadership

[24:08] conference with leaders, captains, club leaders, and student mentors. Um, we all

[24:13] came in for a night. We had a keynote speaker, Dr. Doug Luff who spoke about

[24:17] his journey from homelessness to Harvard and active leadership and making the

[24:22] choice to progress as a leader which was fantastic. We had studentr run workshops

[24:27] and workshops by Dr. Dougloff himself and it was a great night to get all of

[24:32] our student leaders together and ready for the school year. Um and then shortly

[24:36] after we had our new student orientation where we had our student mentors give

[24:40] tours to the incoming students um mostly freshmen

[24:45] » and then our student led panel for the parents which went well and just had us

[24:50] ready for September 2nd when we came in. Um everything went flawlessly like you

[24:55] said such spirit and enthusiasm like it's hard not to notice and

[25:01] » I love the start of school. I might be crazy for that but Mhm.

[25:04] » I I definitely did notice the energy. Um so I'm glad you pointed that out.

[25:09] » And then we had our fire drill today. No issues. That went smoothly. Everyone's

[25:14] settling into their schedules. We have picture day tomorrow. It was postponed,

[25:19] but fall sports are in full swing. Um I know today girls and boys soccer had

[25:25] games. There was a volleyball game. And then cross country and golf had their

[25:29] events. And coming up is Senior Sunrise this

[25:34] Friday at 6:00 am bright and early. Um, and then our first football home game is

[25:39] this Friday night. So, it'll be great to see all the Bulldog spirit. That's all.

[25:44] » All right. Very impressive. I like that you're bringing your aame.

[25:48] Um, I had another thought to that. The senior sunrise. Let's hope the sun is up

[25:55] at that hour. I think last year at senior sunrise it was still dark.

[26:00] Maybe they got up a little too early. So, let's hope you get that. And good

[26:05] luck to the Bulldogs on Friday night and all the other teams. Any questions or

[26:10] comments? >> No. All right, we'll go to the left.

[26:14] Miss Hennessy. >> Well, um, Miss Nola, thank you for

[26:17] giving all those updates. I think you crossed off quite a few of the things I

[26:21] was going to say, so I love um how thorough you've been. Uh, just want to

[26:24] say welcome back. Um, hope everyone did enjoy their Labor Day. Um, good luck to

[26:30] the Estston families um, uh, for those that are beginning their journey here in

[26:34] Rockland Public Schools. Uh, good luck to all the um, RHS fall sports. Um, and

[26:40] going to put my Dr. um, Marl Small hat on and say wash your hands and get

[26:47] rested because you're now in contact with a lot of germs. Right? There's a

[26:51] lot of kids coming together using the same dust, using the same door handles.

[26:55] So, uh, please stay healthy because it usually happens in the first couple

[26:59] weeks when everyone's back and there's a lot of new exposure to different germs.

[27:03] So, that's my little plug to to stay rested and eat healthy.

[27:09] » All right. She'd be so proud of you. >> I know. I'm going to protect her.

[27:11] » You've grown a long way. >> Sit next to her.

[27:16] » Emily the night before the preschooler. >> I do have a preschooler going to

[27:21] preschool for the first time tomorrow. She's very excited. I think I am a

[27:25] little excited too, a little sad at the same time, but she's ready. I don't know

[27:30] how I'll feel about that tomorrow, but um welcome back. I'm very excited to be

[27:36] joining Rock Public Schools again, I guess, but this time as a parent. Uh

[27:41] sounds weird even saying that. Um but I hope everyone has a great year. I know

[27:46] there's a pack meeting at Estston on Friday morning at 9:00 a.m. if anyone

[27:50] would like to join. there. I think they're desperately looking because I

[27:54] think a lot of people have stepped up to Phelps that were involved. So, uh

[27:58] there's a lot of open spots regarding that. And that's all.

[28:03] » All right. Good luck tomorrow. >> Thank you.

[28:05] » It's okay to cry. >> We all have been there.

[28:09] » Um I don't really have anything to add. I was going to say if anyone wore their

[28:12] beautiful picture day outfit today and they're wearing it tomorrow, there's no

[28:15] judging. And um I think that the Eston pack is a

[28:21] hard pack because they're only there for a short amount of time and then they

[28:24] move on. So anytime they get anyone involved is a great thing and then it's

[28:28] usually those moms that or dads that continue on and volunteer all the way up

[28:32] to this table. So um yeah, that's I don't really have anything else. You

[28:37] guys have all said it. >> All right. Well then motion to adjourn.

[28:41] » Second. All those in favor. That's a wrap. Good night Rockland.
