student staff recognition. Dr.

66
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,160
We love having this recognition this

67
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,160
time of year. So, uh, we are going to

68
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:03,919
start with Whipple Elementary. Mrs.

69
00:08:03,919 --> 00:08:06,960
Douglas is here and so she may call a

70
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:17,350
few people down to be recognized.

71
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,670
I have a couple extra people.

72
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,039
All right. If you guys will both stand

73
00:08:23,039 --> 00:08:24,639

74
00:08:24,639 --> 00:08:26,800
your beautiful faces. Right.

75
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,800
Thank you.

76
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,520
for having us tonight, board.

77
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:36,000
So, we had a tie amongst my my staff,

78
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,159
and if there's a tie, I'm kind of a fair

79
00:08:38,159 --> 00:08:39,519
person. I want them both cuz I don't

80
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:42,959
want to have to choose. So, um I have an

81
00:08:42,959 --> 00:08:44,320
extra person tonight, but I want to

82
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,200
start with our students. Um it's with

83
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:48,880
great pride and excitement that we would

84
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,600
like to recognize Roxy Price. This is

85
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,080
sweet Roxy. She's a second grader at

86
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,279
Whipple Ranch Elementary. She is truly a

87
00:08:57,279 --> 00:08:59,600
special young cougar who brings so much

88
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,399
personality, joy, and energy to our

89
00:09:02,399 --> 00:09:05,120
school. She is sweet. She is tenacious,

90
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,160
resilient, fun, smart, energetic, and

91
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,160
caring. Her bright spirit and

92
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,560
determination make her someone who is

93
00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:15,279
very easy to cheer for. One of the

94
00:09:15,279 --> 00:09:17,360
things that makes Roxy so remarkable is

95
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,000
her tenacity and her resilience. She

96
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,600
continues to work hard even when

97
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,760
something is difficult. She shows us

98
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,680
that being successful does not mean

99
00:09:25,680 --> 00:09:28,160
everything is always easy. It means

100
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,640
continuing to try, learning along the

101
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,240
way, and believing that you can keep

102
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,600
growing. Roxy has a wonderful ability to

103
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,160
bring happiness to those around her. Her

104
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,160
fun personality, sense of humor, and

105
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,959
energetic spirit can brighten any room.

106
00:09:42,959 --> 00:09:45,440
At the at the same time, she has a sweet

107
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,839
and caring heart. She notices others.

108
00:09:47,839 --> 00:09:50,000
She shows kindness and reminds us that

109
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,959
being a great student is much more um

110
00:09:52,959 --> 00:09:54,480
than the [clears throat] academics. It

111
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,240
is also about how we treat the people

112
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,959
around us. Roxy represents so many of

113
00:09:58,959 --> 00:10:00,800
the qualities we hope to develop in

114
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,760
Whipple Ranch student and every Whipple

115
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,600
Ranch student. She works hard. She

116
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,600
perseveres. She cares for others and

117
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,360
brings her own unique spark to our

118
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,240
school each day. Roxy, we are so proud

119
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,120
of you. Continue to be brave when things

120
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,360
are hard. Keep sharing your kindness and

121
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,360
your laughter and never lose the

122
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,360
determination that makes you uniquely

123
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,240
you. Congratulations. Keep shining and

124
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,160
showing everyone what it means to be a

125
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,452
Cougar.

126
00:10:29,462 --> 00:10:32,230
[applause]

127
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,560
Our next legendary student is also a

128
00:10:34,560 --> 00:10:36,720
second grader. So, it's with great pride

129
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,600
that we recognize Scott Schulz as our

130
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,279
Whipple Ranch Elementary legendary

131
00:10:41,279 --> 00:10:43,760
student. Scott is a wonderful young

132
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,160
cougar who brings curiosity, kindness,

133
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,880
and joy to our school. He is quietly

134
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:53,040
hilarious, kind, wondrous, inquisitive,

135
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,000
intelligent, funny, and smart. Scott has

136
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,760
a special way of looking at the world

137
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,480
with curiosity and excitement. And he is

138
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,560
always ready to learn, explore, and

139
00:11:02,560 --> 00:11:05,519
discover something new. One of Scott's

140
00:11:05,519 --> 00:11:07,839
greatest qualities is his inquisitive

141
00:11:07,839 --> 00:11:11,040
nature. He asks questions. He thinks

142
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,360
deeply and he genuinely wants to

143
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,560
understand how all the things work.

144
00:11:16,560 --> 00:11:18,560
His natural curiosity and love of

145
00:11:18,560 --> 00:11:20,240
learning are wonderful qualities that

146
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,000
will continue to help him grow and

147
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,560
accomplish great things. Scott cares

148
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:26,640
about the people around him and brings a

149
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,440
gentle, positive spirit to our school.

150
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,760
His sense of humor and fun personality

151
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,640
make makes others smiles while he his

152
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,560
kindness helps those around him feel

153
00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:39,839
welcomed and valued. What Scott makes

154
00:11:39,839 --> 00:11:42,079
what makes Scott truly legendary is the

155
00:11:42,079 --> 00:11:44,160
combination of his kind heart and his

156
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,160
curious mind. He reminds us that

157
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,320
learning is an adventure and that there

158
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,360
is always something new to discover. He

159
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,200
approaches the world with a sense of

160
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,279
wonder that makes learning exciting not

161
00:11:55,279 --> 00:11:58,000
only for himself but those around him.

162
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,399
Scott, we are so proud of you. Never

163
00:12:00,399 --> 00:12:02,640

00:12:06,959 --> 00:12:09,680
Congratulations, Scott. Keep one, keep

167
00:12:09,680 --> 00:12:12,320
wondering, keep learning, and keep being

168
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,573
the amazing Cougar that you are.

169
00:12:15,573 --> 00:12:20,949
[applause]

170
00:12:20,959 --> 00:12:24,320
Okay. I have the most amazing staff in

171
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:25,398
the district. I don't know

172
00:12:25,398 --> 00:12:27,440
[clears throat] if anybody knows this,

173
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:28,959
um,

174
00:12:28,959 --> 00:12:30,720
but I really do. I'm very, very

175
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,639
fortunate to have the staff. Today I

176
00:12:32,639 --> 00:12:35,360
would like to recognize Desiree Wapshaw

177
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,200
as one of our Whipple Ranch Elementary's

178
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,160
legendary staff members. As our registar

179
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,800
and attendance secretary, Desiree is an

180
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,959
essential part of our school. She is

181
00:12:44,959 --> 00:12:46,639
often the first person to greet

182
00:12:46,639 --> 00:12:49,760
students, families, staff and visitors,

183
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:51,920
always welcome them, welcoming them with

184
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,160
her kindness, patience, and always a

185
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,880
caring heart. [gasps]

186
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,880
She is truly one of the people who makes

187
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:00,800
Whipple Ranch the special place that it

188
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,519
is. She keeps our school organized. I

189
00:13:03,519 --> 00:13:05,760
need a little help with that. Supports

190
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,079
our students and families. She helps our

191
00:13:08,079 --> 00:13:10,480
staff and handles countless details

192
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,240
behind the scenes that are essential to

193
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,880
the daily operation of Whipple Ranch.

194
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,200
Her work may not always be visible to

195
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,200
everyone, but the difference that she

196
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:20,880
makes is felt throughout our entire

197
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,600
school community. What makes Desiree

198
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,240
truly truly legendary, however, is not

199
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,880
just everything she does. It's how she

200
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,480
does it. She treats people with respect.

201
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,839
She listens no matter how busy she is.

202
00:13:35,839 --> 00:13:38,000
She's always encouraging and she truly

203
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,480
cares. She gives her time and energy

204
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,800
freely, always willing to step in and

205
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,880
help wherever she is needed. Her

206
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:46,560
kindness and compassion create a

207
00:13:46,560 --> 00:13:48,800
welcoming environment will pe where

208
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,440
people know that they matter. We are

209
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,560
incredibly fortunate to have Desiree at

210
00:13:54,560 --> 00:13:56,880
our as part of our Whipple Ranch team.

211
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,720
She represents what it means to be

212
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,560
unified in excellence. Someone who

213
00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:02,560
serves others with heart, works

214
00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:05,519
tirelessly for our school, and leaves a

215
00:14:05,519 --> 00:14:08,000
positive impact on everyone fortunate

216
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,320
enough to know her. Thank you, Desiree,

217
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,800
for all that you do. Whipple Ranch is

218
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,749
truly a better place because of you.

219
00:14:16,749 --> 00:14:22,550
[applause]

220
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,040
And my last legendary staff tonight is

221
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,760
Heidi Shepatello. She is our music

222
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,079
teacher and our PBIS coach at Whipple

223
00:14:30,079 --> 00:14:32,240
Ranch.

224
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,800
The impact she makes reaches far beyond

225
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,440
both of those roles. She's helpful.

226
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,639
She's patient, creative, compassionate,

227
00:14:40,639 --> 00:14:42,959
dedicated, and steady, and

228
00:14:42,959 --> 00:14:44,480
gentlehearted.

229
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,320
She's always working hard and

230
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,560
encouraging everyone around her. No

231
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,639
matter what is needed, Heidi is always

232
00:14:50,639 --> 00:14:54,160
willing to step in and help. Heidi puts

233
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,480
an incred incredible amount of heart

234
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,199
into her students. Through her music in

235
00:14:59,199 --> 00:15:01,600
her classroom, she creates a place where

236
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,360
her children can build confidence,

237
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,199
express themselves, and develop a

238
00:15:05,199 --> 00:15:08,000
genuine love and appreciation for music.

239
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,839
She dedicates countless hours to

240
00:15:09,839 --> 00:15:11,519
preparing our students for musical

241
00:15:11,519 --> 00:15:14,639
performances, making sure each child has

242
00:15:14,639 --> 00:15:17,519
an opportunity to shine. The joy and

243
00:15:17,519 --> 00:15:19,040
pride our students experience during

244
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,760
these performances are a a reflection of

245
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,079
the time, care, and dedication Heidi

246
00:15:24,079 --> 00:15:26,959
pours into them. One of Heidi's greatest

247
00:15:26,959 --> 00:15:29,120
qualities is that much of what she does

248
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,480
happens very quietly behind the scenes.

249
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,880
She does not seek recognition. I know

250
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:39,199
she hates it as most people. Um, she

251
00:15:39,199 --> 00:15:41,199
doesn't and the attention. Instead, she

252
00:15:41,199 --> 00:15:43,440
just simply sees what needs to be done

253
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,079
and she helps to make it happen. Whether

254
00:15:46,079 --> 00:15:48,880
she is supporting PBIS, encouraging a

255
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,600
colleague, helping with school activity,

256
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:54,800
solving a problem, mostly our schedule,

257
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,560
and taking care of one of our many

258
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,160
little details that keep our school

259
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,800
running smoothly. Heidi can be counted

260
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,440
on. Her calm and steady presence makes

261
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,279
Whipple Ranch a better place. She

262
00:16:05,279 --> 00:16:06,959
approaches students and staff with

263
00:16:06,959 --> 00:16:09,519
patience and compassion and continually

264
00:16:09,519 --> 00:16:11,199
demonstrates what it means to serve

265
00:16:11,199 --> 00:16:13,839
others with kindness. She is someone who

266
00:16:13,839 --> 00:16:16,079
encourages those around her, gives

267
00:16:16,079 --> 00:16:18,800
freely of her time and her talents, and

268
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,720
consistently puts the needs of students

269
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,959
and school first. We are incredibly

270
00:16:22,959 --> 00:16:24,639
fortunate to have Heidi as part of our

271
00:16:24,639 --> 00:16:26,800
Whipple Ranch family, and we're proud to

272
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,800
recognize her tonight as one of our

273
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,440
legendary staff members. Congratulations

274
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:32,720
and thank you for your heart and

275
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,956
dedication always.

277
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,320
And I have for you, we're going to shake

00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,679
>> We know what you do at home is

298
00:18:05,679 --> 00:18:07,360
important.

299
00:18:07,360 --> 00:18:09,280

[applause]

304
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,240
» Thank you so much. It's my favorite part

305
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:33,440
of the school board.

00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,160
>> That's [laughter] cute. Thank you.

00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:44,870
>> It's ours, too.

308
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,600
We wish this was all we had to do was

recognize

310
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:58,789
wonderful kids. So, [clears throat]

311
00:18:58,799 --> 00:19:06,230
» it's awesome.

312
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,080
Thank you guys for coming out and being

313
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,000
supportive like that. We appreciate

314
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,830
that.

315
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,600
» Okay. Item 5.2 f food service program

316
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,240
financial reports. Miss Davis.

317
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,520
>> Thank you. So um we've talked about this

318
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,160
for the last month or so about getting

319
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,960
this information to you. So um the first

320
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,679
report that I'm providing to you is the

321
00:19:31,679 --> 00:19:34,799
overall financial services. Um and I

322
00:19:34,799 --> 00:19:37,600
wanted to give you uh a comparison over

323
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,200
the last several years and how much it's

324
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,240
grown and um over the last several

325
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,039
years. And so, um, you can see the

326
00:19:47,039 --> 00:19:49,760
difference. And so, last year we

327
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,160
actually ended the year and I show a

328
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,640
negative 5,000, but we actually got a

329
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,000
refund refund from SF of $2,000. So, it

330
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,120
ended up being a negative of only 3 thou

331
00:20:01,120 --> 00:20:03,200
$3,675,

332
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:07,760
which is absolutely amazing. And, um, I

333
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,000
just like to give credit to Stephanie

334
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,559
Joiner and, um, her staff. And I did ask

335
00:20:12,559 --> 00:20:14,559
her to come. um she hates to be

336
00:20:14,559 --> 00:20:17,200
recognized, but um she's just done a

337
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,520
fabulous job um this last year and

338
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,840
really turned our food service around.

339
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,320
Um the kids absolutely love the food as

340
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,799
well as the staff. Um it's just been

341
00:20:26,799 --> 00:20:30,080
amazing this last year. So um give her

342
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,600
credit for everything that she's done

343
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,159
and this year we're starting off again

344
00:20:34,159 --> 00:20:35,760
in

345
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,880
great and um so she's got lots of great

346
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,440
ideas for this next year. Um the high

347
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:47,840
school um has a an extra an alloc cart. I guess that's what we call it. Um

348
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,600
so that they can just pick up quick

349
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,159
things um if they're in a hurry and that

350
00:20:52,159 --> 00:20:55,280
type of thing. So um we're just doing

351
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,280
great things with uh the food service

352
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,520
now. So I'm very proud of of what we've

353
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,720
accomplished. So um with that then um if

354
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,760
we go to the next page um is the summer

355
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,039
food program. So, um, for multiple

356
00:21:09,039 --> 00:21:12,480
years, we've just done the, uh, the

357
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,720
typical food service where the kids come

358
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,039
in and have lunch or breakfast in the

359
00:21:17,039 --> 00:21:19,600
cafeterias at the different schools. And

360
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,840
then last year when, um, Stephanie came

361
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,200
in, we went to um, the new program where

362
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,159
they come, they pick up 7 days worth of

363
00:21:28,159 --> 00:21:30,640
breakfast and lunches. And that started

364
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,360
over at NH. And that was very

365
00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:36,000
successful. As you can see, we uh made a

366
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,480
profit of about 45,000.

367
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,159
Um but they still had to get out of

368
00:21:40,159 --> 00:21:45,280
their vehicles and pick up the food and it was a great thing. But then this

369
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,760
year she started the program where now

370
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,840
we're over at the junior high and people

371
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,640
can just drive through and pick up their

372
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,720
food. Just open their trunk and we put

373
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,200
in the food and they just pick it up.

374
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,320
And um that has just as you can see has

375
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,600
been a an overwhelming success. So, um,

376
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,080
the overall profit and gain was about

377
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,400
$213,000.

378
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:12,320
So, wonderful program. Um, they service

379
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,799
Concho. So, Concho comes and picks up

380
00:22:14,799 --> 00:22:17,919
food for um them and then they take it

381
00:22:17,919 --> 00:22:19,840
to their school and then they do the

382
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,640
same type of thing as well as change

383
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,960
point. Correct. They come and pick up

384
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,480
food for um their facility. So, um we do

385
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,799
it for many different areas which is

386
00:22:30,799 --> 00:22:33,600
great. Um, and as you know, Blue Ridge

387
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,039
does it, Snowflake does it. Um, so this

388
00:22:37,039 --> 00:22:39,840
is a great program. We, uh, serve a lot

389
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,679
of our community and a lot of our kids

390
00:22:41,679 --> 00:22:44,400
over the summer. Um, and then this helps

391
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,720
us throughout the year. So you see a

392
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:50,320
great, uh, profit from this, but without

393
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:56,640
this, we would not have the bottom line that we would. So we

394
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,000
wouldn't break, we just really would

395
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,320
like to break even and be able to buy

396
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,640
the equipment that we need and we

397
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,559
haven't been able to do that. So by

398
00:23:04,559 --> 00:23:07,840
having this type of of profit at the end

399
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,480
of the year, then we can actually keep

400
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,880
our equipment in the standards that we

401
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,600
need to for the cafeteria. Um, and

402
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,600
that's really important because without

403
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,240
it, we'd have to try and find grants or

404
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,000
donations. And so this money will

405
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,000
definitely help us get our equipment up

406
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,480
to the standard that it needs to be. So

407
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,480
thank you Stephanie for all you do and

408
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,600
your staff. We have a great staff and

409
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,200
we're very proud of them and for what

410
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,471
they do. So thank you very much.

411
00:23:35,471 --> 00:23:35,600
[applause]

412
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,400
>> Thank you.

413
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,711
>> Stephanie, would you please stand up?

414
00:23:40,711 --> 00:23:41,760
[laughter]

415
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:42,880
>> I don't know if you'll be able to tell

416
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,520
the difference, but

417
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:50,640
>> thank you so much. Please would you uh express our gratitude? take that back

418
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,400
to your staff, please, so that they know

419
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,559
that we think of them and we appreciate

420
00:23:54,559 --> 00:23:56,720
them. Thanks.

421
00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,710
>> Thank you.

422
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,799
» Item 5.3, finance report. Miss Davis,

423
00:24:04,799 --> 00:24:06,960
>> thank you again. [laughter]

424
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,280
So, um I haven't been uh done the

425
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,360
financial report for the last couple uh

426
00:24:11,360 --> 00:24:13,679
months because again, uh we've been

427
00:24:13,679 --> 00:24:15,919
closing out the prior year and bringing

428
00:24:15,919 --> 00:24:18,960
up now the new year. Uh the prior year

429
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,960
still isn't closed. Next month I'll be

430
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,720
presenting to you the annual financial

431
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,039
report and that will be closing out the

432
00:24:25,039 --> 00:24:28,640
year. But this is um this new year. Um a

433
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,640
lot of uh preliminary still because we

434
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,720
uh need to bring over the carry forward

435
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,880
from the prior year. But this has given

436
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,880
us a good idea of where we're we're at

437
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,000
right now as of August 31st.

438
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,240
So our uh proposed budget right now is

439
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,520
at 23 million. Um current expenditures

440
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,960
as of 831 is at 2.7

441
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,320
en incumbrances are at 16 million and so

442
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,880
right now our remaining budget is at 4

443
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:01,120
million. So uh we are struggling um but

444
00:25:01,120 --> 00:25:04,000
we are going to be working on this and

445
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,440
again we don't know what our carry

446
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,400
forward is completely yet. So this could

447
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,400
possibly increase. We're looking at some

448
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,919
budget uh measures to see where we can

449
00:25:13,919 --> 00:25:16,880
uh bring down our budget a bit. Um we're

450
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,200
going to put together like a budget task

451
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,240
force which will uh we'll ask the the

452
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,279
schools to come together and help us uh

453
00:25:25,279 --> 00:25:28,159
see where we can cut back some

454
00:25:28,159 --> 00:25:30,640
um not necessarily in personnel because

455
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,880
that's important to us is our personnel.

456
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,120
We've worked really hard to appreciate

457
00:25:35,120 --> 00:25:37,120
our personnel through raises and and

458
00:25:37,120 --> 00:25:39,360
whatnot. So, um, but we think there's

459
00:25:39,360 --> 00:25:40,960
other ways that we can cut back and

460
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,600
where we can do, uh, different things.

461
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,760
So, um, but we're working on this and I

462
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,039
think we'll be we'll be fine. Um, and

463
00:25:49,039 --> 00:25:51,600
then we have the capital budget. This is

464
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,880
always a hard one because capital and we

465
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,400
just uh I've been at ASBO and we just

466
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,720
got back from the ASBA law conference

467
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,480
and this is always a hard one because

468
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,080
the capital budget was never meant to

469
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:07,840
take care of our buildings. This is what

470
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,400
we call soft capital. And so this was

471
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:14,240
really meant to help with the um

472
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,080
instructional side to help pay for books

473
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,600
um instructional aids and but we've

474
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,520
really most schools have been using this

475
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,400
to help with the buildings and for buses

476
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,559
and that's not what this was originally

477
00:26:28,559 --> 00:26:31,279
designed for. So um our current budget

478
00:26:31,279 --> 00:26:33,919
is 3.1 million. Um, expenditures are

479
00:26:33,919 --> 00:26:38,559
currently at 700,000. Expenditures at 99

480
00:26:38,559 --> 00:26:40,480
997,000

481
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,000
with a remaining budget of 1.4 uh

482
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,039
million. Again, the last year's budget

483
00:26:47,039 --> 00:26:49,919
or last year's budget is not completed.

484
00:26:49,919 --> 00:26:51,679
So, we don't know exactly what our carry

485
00:26:51,679 --> 00:26:54,960
forward is yet. Um, so uh we will have

486
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,520
that to you by the December because we

487
00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,840
will do a revised budget in December.

488
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:01,679
So, we'll have a complete budget by

489
00:27:01,679 --> 00:27:03,039
then.

490
00:27:03,039 --> 00:27:05,760
But uh yeah, this is really tough uh

491
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,440
with not having uh the the capital that

492
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,640
we need. As we know, SFD is not does not

493
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,360
have any money for capital items.

494
00:27:15,360 --> 00:27:18,320
They've already spent this year's budget

495
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,440
um as they always do. So, uh we not sure

496
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,200
if we're going to get any money for any

497
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,400
of our projects that uh Mr. Rail has put

498
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,880
in. Um so, we'll just have to see. And

499
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,440
that includes unfortunately uh Whipple

500
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,640
Ranch's HVAC system, which has been on

501
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:39,360
there three years now. Yeah. So, we'll

502
00:27:39,360 --> 00:27:42,000
just see how that goes. Any questions on

503
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,960
the budget?

504
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,559
Okay. Thank you.

505
00:27:46,559 --> 00:27:48,559
>> Thank you.

506
00:27:48,559 --> 00:27:51,039
Item 5.4,

507
00:27:51,039 --> 00:28:01,350
Solo High School CTO is Mr. Butler.

508
00:28:01,360 --> 00:28:03,200
Good evening and thank you for allowing

509
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,360
me to present on uh schoolbased

510
00:28:05,360 --> 00:28:09,200
enterprises. So, of course, CTE stands

511
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:10,799
for I learned this at summer conference,

512
00:28:10,799 --> 00:28:13,440
coolest teachers ever or depending on

513
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:14,640
which group you're talking about,

514
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,799
craziest teachers ever. But career and

515
00:28:16,799 --> 00:28:19,760
technical education is comprised of many

516
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,279
different um components. So there's the

517
00:28:23,279 --> 00:28:25,039
technical standards just like you would

518
00:28:25,039 --> 00:28:27,760
have in any other subject area where

519
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,799
students will show A and B by using C

520
00:28:30,799 --> 00:28:34,399
and D for example. Um but it also

521
00:28:34,399 --> 00:28:36,159
includes professional standards. So

522
00:28:36,159 --> 00:28:40,789
professionalism um

523
00:28:40,799 --> 00:28:43,600
uh work-based learning and um

524
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,840
leadership. So work-based learning is a

525
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,520
component that's probably the most

526
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:51,279
challenging for us because um

527
00:28:51,279 --> 00:28:53,120
true work-based learning is our students

528
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:54,640
would leave the classroom and they would

529
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,840
go to work in that environment. For some

530
00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,840
programs that's doable, but for a lot of

531
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,000
the programs that we have um that's just

532
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,240
not feasible. So the next best option

533
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:05,919
for us is what we call schoolbased

534
00:29:05,919 --> 00:29:08,000
enterprise. And schoolbased enterprise

535
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,880
is just a way to give the students the

536
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,840
experience of being in the workforce. So

537
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,120
they would do some of the same things

538
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,720
that they would do in the workplace. Um

539
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,480
see students will get hands-on

540
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,480
experience with responsibilities such as

541
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,159
developing products and services,

542
00:29:24,159 --> 00:29:27,279
budgeting, pricing, marketing, uh

543
00:29:27,279 --> 00:29:29,279
customer service, inventory, completing

544
00:29:29,279 --> 00:29:31,039
orders, and maintaining financial

545
00:29:31,039 --> 00:29:32,640
records.

546
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,720
And so the the benefits of uh

547
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,960
schoolbased enterprises in the CTE

548
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,039
environment are that students are

549
00:29:39,039 --> 00:29:41,039
learning teamwork, communication,

550
00:29:41,039 --> 00:29:43,200
responsibility, time management, problem

551
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:44,960
solving, professionalism, and

552
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,640
entrepreneurship.

553
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:48,960
Students uh learn that their work has

554
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,520
real customers, real expectations, real

555
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,679
deadlines, quality standards, and

556
00:29:53,679 --> 00:29:55,679
measurable outcomes. Now, these are all

557
00:29:55,679 --> 00:29:57,760
things that I think society expects

558
00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,760
students to learn in school, but in the

559
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:01,120
career and technical education world,

560
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:02,640
this is where they get the hands-on

561
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:06,240
opportunity to do that. So, um this

562
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,840
year, we have proposed um four different

563
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:11,840
schoolbased enterprises that represent

564
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,320
seven of our nine programs.

565
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,240
And for the first time ever, we've

566
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,080
actually had a group that's combined

567
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,240
together. So, in the past, we had our

568
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,320
business and management students uh

569
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:25,440
operate a school store. So, a retail

570
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,520
store, if you will. This year, they've

571
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,880
taken on the task of marketing and sales

572
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:32,240
for some of the other programs. So, some

573
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:33,279
of the other programs that weren't

574
00:30:33,279 --> 00:30:35,279
previously represented in our

575
00:30:35,279 --> 00:30:37,039
school-based enterprise for business

576
00:30:37,039 --> 00:30:39,919
will now be covered. So, um those

577
00:30:39,919 --> 00:30:42,880
programs are our construction

578
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:47,520
uh program. So, they're going to um

579
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,480
offer sheds, playhouses, and uh

580
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,799
doghouses that the business and

581
00:30:52,799 --> 00:30:54,720
marketing students will market and do

582
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,480
the sales transactions for, and the

583
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:58,159
construction kids will actually build

584
00:30:58,159 --> 00:31:01,679
the the items. Uh our robotics and 3D

585
00:31:01,679 --> 00:31:04,480
printing programs. Um

586
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,960
students are developing uh items to sell

587
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,760
for the uh cougar store. So, keychains,

588
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,039
fidget items, other 3D printable items.

589
00:31:13,039 --> 00:31:15,360
Um and then again the marketing students

590
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,080
will market and and sell those. And then

591
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:22,880
our media um program is offering uh

592
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,080
photography. So like event photography,

593
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,520
dances, um sports photography, other uh

594
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,840
event photography and then they also do

595
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,600
printing inside the school. So we'll

596
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,919
have programs other programs come to

597
00:31:35,919 --> 00:31:38,240
them and say hey we need posters made.

598
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,039
So um and a lot of this has been going

599
00:31:41,039 --> 00:31:44,880
on previously at the expense of our CTE

600
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,279
funding. So this has given the students

601
00:31:47,279 --> 00:31:49,200
an opportunity to actually determine

602
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,720
cost of items and to um market those and

603
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,480
sell those and recoup some of the costs

604
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,360
of running these programs. Our culinary

605
00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,279
program has a long established history

606
00:31:59,279 --> 00:32:02,080
of service to our school and our

607
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,799
community. um

608
00:32:04,799 --> 00:32:06,240
in partnership with their career and

609
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,799
technical student organization, FCCLA,

610
00:32:08,799 --> 00:32:11,440
which is family uh career and community

611
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,000
leaders of America. Uh students have

612
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,840
opportunities to um operate dining and

613
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,159
catering services at the school. And so

614
00:32:20,159 --> 00:32:21,279
a lot of this, like I say, has been

615
00:32:21,279 --> 00:32:23,440
going on in the past, like this has been

616
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,240
pretty fundamental um program. We have a

617
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:27,519
new teacher that we're really excited

618
00:32:27,519 --> 00:32:30,080
about his enthusiasm that he brings to

619
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:31,679
the students in the classroom, the

620
00:32:31,679 --> 00:32:34,399
program, but they want to continue with

621
00:32:34,399 --> 00:32:36,880
tailgating. So, these are events at uh

622
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,399
you know, sporting events like home

623
00:32:38,399 --> 00:32:39,919
football games, for example, where they

624
00:32:39,919 --> 00:32:41,919
would sell food products there. Uh

625
00:32:41,919 --> 00:32:46,000
Friday breakfast, which has been like a mainstay at the high school for a

626
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:47,440
lot of teachers and students because

627
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,600
this happens on our mastery Friday when

628
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:53,039
we don't have normal um food services uh

629
00:32:53,039 --> 00:32:56,240
going on on that day. um other food

630
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:57,679
products that they would sell. So

631
00:32:57,679 --> 00:32:59,679
they've done in the past uh cookies,

632
00:32:59,679 --> 00:33:02,720
pies, things like that. Um items for or

633
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,760
to order. Uh catering projects where

634
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,679
they would go and cater an event. Uh CTE

635
00:33:09,679 --> 00:33:12,320
showcase evening, so when we have things

636
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,720
like uh next steps where they would have

637
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,279
like um cookies or something there. And

638
00:33:17,279 --> 00:33:19,519
then cupcake sales. So this is a new one

639
00:33:19,519 --> 00:33:23,039
that uh Mr. Joiner has taken on where uh

640
00:33:23,039 --> 00:33:24,159
this has kind of been a thing that we've

641
00:33:24,159 --> 00:33:27,600
heard some grumbling um from other

642
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,039
people in the community about well I

643
00:33:29,039 --> 00:33:30,399
can't bring cupcakes to my kids school

644
00:33:30,399 --> 00:33:34,000
anymore. Well um Mr. Joiner's program

645
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,240
actually will offer cupcakes that are

646
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,640
free of the 11 band ingredients so that

647
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,159
they are compliant with the Arizona

648
00:33:40,159 --> 00:33:42,080
Healthy Schools Act, the House Bill

649
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,559
2164. So we're pretty excited about

650
00:33:44,559 --> 00:33:45,760
that.

651
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,120
um our cubbyhole which is our uh

652
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,679
preschool which caters to three to 5

653
00:33:51,679 --> 00:33:53,440
year olds and there's we have a lot of

654
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,840
district employees that have their their

655
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,440
children in there and it's a great

656
00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:00,320
opportunity for the students to have um

657
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,640
child or early childhood education

658
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,880
experiences not only for the young kids

659
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,159
but also for the high school kids. So

660
00:34:06,159 --> 00:34:10,000
the high school kids work in um the

661
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,520
cubby hole during the day. So that's

662
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,159
part of their um internship that they

663
00:34:14,159 --> 00:34:16,480
do. they also receive college credit for

664
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,399
this. And so it's it's kind of a a

665
00:34:18,399 --> 00:34:21,119
win-win all the way across the board for

666
00:34:21,119 --> 00:34:24,639
um that program. And Miss KD and and

667
00:34:24,639 --> 00:34:33,280
Mrs. um sorry, lost my place here. Zinsky

668
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,079
have done a great job. Their classroom,

669
00:34:36,079 --> 00:34:37,919
the um preschool classroom is right

670
00:34:37,919 --> 00:34:39,839
directly next to my office. And so all

671
00:34:39,839 --> 00:34:41,679
day long I get to hear them singing and

672
00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:43,359
hear them laughing and and doing all the

673
00:34:43,359 --> 00:34:45,520
things there. And then today they got to

674
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,720
participate in the uh homecoming parade

675
00:34:48,720 --> 00:34:49,919
through the high school. So that was

676
00:34:49,919 --> 00:34:52,560
neat to see. Um amazing program. They do

677
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:54,879
a lot there um for both the high school

678
00:34:54,879 --> 00:34:56,879
students and then the younger kids. And

679
00:34:56,879 --> 00:34:59,040
then our uh law and public safety kids.

680
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:03,440
Um we have a logistics and um so Shola

681
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,520
High School logistics program where the

682
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,000
students learn um just some basic law

683
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,640
and public safety um tasks. So they are

684
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,760
involved with um providing um support

685
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,560
for crowd control and security at some

686
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,240
of our events. So like sporting events.

687
00:35:20,240 --> 00:35:22,720
So we're just having a presence there

688
00:35:22,720 --> 00:35:25,200
with you know people in reflective vests

689
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:26,720
with flashlights and that just kind of

690
00:35:26,720 --> 00:35:29,119
deters some of the shenanigans that

691
00:35:29,119 --> 00:35:31,520
might happen. Um we're excited about our

692
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:34,800
new teacher coming to the program and um

693
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,440
we'd like your support on these four

694
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,280
programs going forward and I appreciate

695
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:41,200
it. Uh if you guys have any questions

696
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,280
about any of them, they each

697
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:44,720
individually have their own business

698
00:35:44,720 --> 00:35:46,960
plans which you may have a copy of, but

699
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,400
I brought the Spark Notes version

700
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,119
instead.

701
00:35:51,119 --> 00:35:52,480
>> Jerry, how are they going to market

702
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,240
this? And is it going to be to the

703
00:35:54,240 --> 00:35:55,920
community at large?

704
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:57,760
>> Some of them will be. Yes. So, some of

705
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,560
the things um are based at the school.

706
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:01,920
So, obviously, like at the Friday

707
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:02,960
breakfast

708
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:04,480
>> in the past, we've invited the community

709
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:05,920
to come out and I think we've seen you

710
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,320
there a time or two in the past. So the

711
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:09,839
business and marketing students now are

712
00:36:09,839 --> 00:36:11,359
going to take over the marketing aspect

713
00:36:11,359 --> 00:36:13,359
of that through social media and just

714
00:36:13,359 --> 00:36:15,440
through you know the community in

715
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,119
general. So

716
00:36:17,119 --> 00:36:19,520
>> great I have the same question.

717
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:20,320
>> Yeah.

718
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,200
>> So the photography um is that going to

719
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,119
be offered to the community at large?

720
00:36:25,119 --> 00:36:26,320
>> I I believe so.

721
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,320
>> Family needed family pictures they

722
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:29,280
>> I believe. Yes.

723
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,440
>> Use our students to to do that. That's

724
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:31,839
awesome.

725
00:36:31,839 --> 00:36:32,560
>> Yes.

726
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,760
>> What's mechanical chess set? So what

727
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,119
>> do it for you so you don't have to

728
00:36:37,119 --> 00:36:38,720
actually play because I can't play

729
00:36:38,720 --> 00:36:39,599
chess.

730
00:36:39,599 --> 00:36:41,359
>> Actually the but the chess set is

731
00:36:41,359 --> 00:36:44,320
something that the students in the uh

732
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:46,079
robotics and 3D printing are going to

733
00:36:46,079 --> 00:36:48,880
design the chess pieces and u

734
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:50,320
manufacture them there and then the

735
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,000
construction kids will build the chess

736
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:52,880
boards.

737
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,480
>> So it's kind of like a joint effort

738
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,640
between Yes. and sell the set.

739
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:57,200
>> Awesome.

740
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:58,320
>> Yep.

741
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,079
So to the extent possible, we've tried

742
00:37:00,079 --> 00:37:02,240
to have programs built together because

743
00:37:02,240 --> 00:37:06,640
a lot of the the programs don't have the standards in them for students to

744
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:08,800
learn, you know, marketing and and

745
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:10,720
sales. The business program, that's kind

746
00:37:10,720 --> 00:37:12,079
of what it's built around. So they've

747
00:37:12,079 --> 00:37:13,599
kind of joined forces and brought in

748
00:37:13,599 --> 00:37:14,880
some of the programs didn't normally

749
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:16,160
have a school-based enterprise

750
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,240
functioning previously. So

751
00:37:18,240 --> 00:37:20,320
>> I think it's awesome.

752
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,240
>> Yeah. And and and our our kids are

753
00:37:22,240 --> 00:37:24,000
amazing. And like I say, our teachers

754
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,839
are uh apparently second to only uh

755
00:37:27,839 --> 00:37:29,599
Heather's kids over there or Heather's

756
00:37:29,599 --> 00:37:31,280
teachers over there at Whipple Ranch.

757
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:31,920
But

758
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,920
>> we've got a great group and they're very

759
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,240
excited about having their students, you

760
00:37:36,240 --> 00:37:38,640
know, apply what they learn outside of

761
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,160
the classroom as well.

762
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,079
>> Thank you. I appreciate you taking this.

763
00:37:42,079 --> 00:37:43,200
>> Thank you,

764
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:44,880
>> Mr. Budler. Good stuff.

765
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,200
>> Yes. would would you just mind sharing

766
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,160
with the board the current data about

767
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,800
the industry certifications that you're

768
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,520
seeing in across the board in in the CTE

769
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:56,400
program?

770
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,960
>> So what we've noticed this last couple

771
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,119
years is our students and our teachers

772
00:38:01,119 --> 00:38:02,640
have really stepped up. So one of the

773
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,640
things that current technical education

774
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:06,240
students have to do so if they are

775
00:38:06,240 --> 00:38:08,079
what's called a completer in a program

776
00:38:08,079 --> 00:38:09,520
that means that they do two contiguous

777
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,200
years. So they would take level one and

778
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,040
complete that year and then level two

779
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:14,320
they would complete that year and then

780
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,359
they take uh a state level assessment

781
00:38:17,359 --> 00:38:18,960
called the technical skills assessment

782
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,839
and then they also would uh take a

783
00:38:21,839 --> 00:38:24,160
industry credential and so we've seen

784
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,800
our numbers go up from I want to say a

785
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:28,079
couple years ago I think we had like

786
00:38:28,079 --> 00:38:29,680
nine or 10 it was like almost single

787
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,320
digits for all programs inclusive and

788
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:33,920
now we had this last year I think we

789
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:35,839
were in the 70s for the [snorts] number

790
00:38:35,839 --> 00:38:37,839
of credentials and that's just the ones

791
00:38:37,839 --> 00:38:39,040
at the high school. So that's what we

792
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:40,480
call our satellite programs. That's not

793
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:41,920
even including our NAVTI ones. There's

794
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,720
probably another 40 or so. And these are

795
00:38:44,720 --> 00:38:46,640
industry recognized credentials that the

796
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:50,560
students can take to the workplace and have that

797
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,040
>> to present to their future employers. So

798
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,040
>> perfect. Good. Thank you so much.

799
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:55,440
>> Thank you.

800
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,440
>> I want to thank you for your leadership

801
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,000
and for your staff and your teachers for

802
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,240
just bringing it up to the next level.

803
00:39:02,240 --> 00:39:02,480
Yeah,

804
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,320
>> you know, this is just one more step

805
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,960
forward that you by combining and

806
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,960
joining forces, you know, amongst the

807
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,200
students. So, thank you very much

808
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:12,720
>> and thank you for your support.

809
00:39:12,720 --> 00:39:15,119
>> And I need a dog house, please. Can I

810
00:39:15,119 --> 00:39:16,240
>> I'll put you on the list

811
00:39:16,240 --> 00:39:17,359
>> now. So, yes, please.

812
00:39:17,359 --> 00:39:17,920
>> All right.

813
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,280
>> Write it down for me. Okay.

814
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:20,000
>> Got it. Thank you.

815
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,750
>> Speaking of orders. [laughter]

816
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:25,440
» Yeah. Jerry's going to go back with a

817
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,040
whole sheet of orders for

818
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:31,359
>> That's right. Top of the list, right?

819
00:39:31,359 --> 00:39:35,359
Got it. Thank you.

820
00:39:35,359 --> 00:39:41,200
>> 5.5 athletic survey data.

821
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:44,400
>> So, I'm not uh Mr. Hoffmire, but he is

822
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,720
currently driving a white mini bus back

823
00:39:46,720 --> 00:39:48,960
from Thatcher with junior high football

824
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:50,800
players. So, he's

825
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:51,839
>> Did they win?

826
00:39:51,839 --> 00:39:54,800
>> I don't know. He didn't tell me.

827
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:56,960
Um, but I just wanted to I don't know if

828
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,280
we can pull up the the data the spread

829
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:03,040
the the bar chart. So over the summer

830
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:04,880
one of my conversations with Mr.

831
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,359
Hoffmire was hey it'd be nice to start

832
00:40:07,359 --> 00:40:09,680
getting some data from our parents. And

833
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,200
so at the beginning of the year he had a

834
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,760
giant parent meeting and he had this

835
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,079
survey that he sent out. Um even though

836
00:40:16,079 --> 00:40:18,800
we had 34 responses which is which is

837
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,079
kind of small because I was at the

838
00:40:20,079 --> 00:40:21,119
meeting and there were quite a few

839
00:40:21,119 --> 00:40:24,160
parents. It's a good first step. And I'm

840
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:27,119
not going to go through the entire um

841
00:40:27,119 --> 00:40:29,280
bar chart. I mean, you you all have that

842
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:30,880
information. I just want to go if we can

843
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,680
go to the very last page,

844
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,160
it it gives some pretty good indicators

845
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,640
of where we can grow as an athletic

846
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:40,880
department and where we're headed. And

847
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,680
if you look at the first question, you

848
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,520
know, our athletic program, does it make

849
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:49,839
our community proud? 70% said yes. um

850
00:40:49,839 --> 00:40:52,800
represents Xolo with integrity. 67%

851
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,280
agreed. Provides positive environment

852
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:59,440
for students. 65% of the parents agreed

853
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,200
in is moving in the right direction.

854
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:03,599
This was this was interesting. 94% of

855
00:41:03,599 --> 00:41:05,440
the parents said that we feel like the

856
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,040
athletic department is going in the

857
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,119
right direction, is committed to

858
00:41:09,119 --> 00:41:12,319
continuous improvement. 76% agreed. And

859
00:41:12,319 --> 00:41:15,040
so this was a really good data set for

860
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:16,720
the athletic department, the athletic

861
00:41:16,720 --> 00:41:19,920
director to see where we can improve,

862
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,640
how we can get better. Um, but I'm I

863
00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:24,240
just wanted to share that with you. And

864
00:41:24,240 --> 00:41:25,599
well, he was going to present it to you,

865
00:41:25,599 --> 00:41:28,160
but we're always looking to see how we

866
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:31,200
can get better and and parent feedback

867
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:32,880
is critical. And so I just wanted to

868
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:34,960
bring that to your attention that we're

869
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:36,480
trying to look at all phases of the

870
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,040
district from food service to athletics

871
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:41,760
to academics to see how we can always be

872
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,640
unified in excellence. So

873
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:47,280
>> this is very good. A great start to the

874
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,839
new school year.

875
00:41:49,839 --> 00:41:51,760
>> It gives us a starting point of how we

876
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:52,560
can get better.

877
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,560
>> Absolutely. Thank you.

878
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:58,240
>> Thank you. Item 5.6 policies and

879
00:41:58,240 --> 00:42:00,480
procedure changes part three first

880
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,599
reading. No action, Dr. Farner.

881
00:42:03,599 --> 00:42:05,520
>> So, there's going to be a a part three

882
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,839
and a part four, and we we just approved

883
00:42:07,839 --> 00:42:11,040
part one and part two tonight. Um, so

884
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,920
these are just additional policies from

885
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:16,800
the last legislative session. The

886
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:18,960
Arizona Risk Retention Trust, who we're

887
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,200
a member of, they provide us the legal

888
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,680
guidance on how our policies should

889
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:25,920
look. And so, this is just a first

890
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,480
reading. Um, if you have questions over

891
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:30,319
the next month, we're going to bring

892
00:42:30,319 --> 00:42:32,240
these back in October for formal

893
00:42:32,240 --> 00:42:34,480
adoption. Please let me know if you have

894
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,040
questions or concerns. A lot of it is

895
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:38,319
the legal ease from the state

896
00:42:38,319 --> 00:42:40,000
legislature that we're just updating our

897
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,829
policies.

898
00:42:43,839 --> 00:42:47,599
» Thank you. 5.7 part four.

899
00:42:47,599 --> 00:42:48,319
>> Same story.

900
00:42:48,319 --> 00:42:50,079
Different.

901
00:42:50,079 --> 00:42:52,960
>> Anybody have any questions or anything?

902
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:56,240
>> Thank you. 5.8 principal reports.

903
00:42:56,240 --> 00:42:57,680
You know, I again I just want to

904
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:02,880
publicly thank our principles. It's it's a tough job, but a very rewarding

905
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:04,800
job, and I appreciate the reports that

906
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,040
they put together. Uh there's a lot of

907
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,200
good things happening across the

908
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:13,280
district and continue to work, and it's because we've got great leaders at

909
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,440
the top and they're they're building

910
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:16,800
their people and I just want to thank

911
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,960
them for their reports and thank them

912
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,119
for what they do.

913
00:43:21,119 --> 00:43:25,670
>> Thank you guys very much.

914
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:30,000
5.9 Superintendent Goals FY2627.

915
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,000
Dr. Farnsworth.

916
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,560
>> So I wanted to bring toward to the board

917
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:38,000
my goals for this coming year and these are directly aligned to the

918
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:39,599
strategic plan that we just approved

919
00:43:39,599 --> 00:43:42,880
this summer. So the strategic plan is

920
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,920
built around really four main pillars.

921
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:47,359
The identity of the district, the

922
00:43:47,359 --> 00:43:48,960
culture of the district, academics of

923
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,400
the district, continuous improvement of

924
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,240
the district, plus operations and

925
00:43:52,240 --> 00:43:55,520
finance. So there's seven areas. Um my

926
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:57,920
goals are are around those four first

927
00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:59,760
pillars of of identity, culture,

928
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:03,040
academics, and improvement. Um and I I

929
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:06,160
try to align some KPIs, key performance

930
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,000
indicators of of what would be the

931
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,319
metrics of a su a successful outcome of

932
00:44:10,319 --> 00:44:13,599
those goals. Again, I'm I'm open to

933
00:44:13,599 --> 00:44:16,079
feedback. If if over the next couple

934
00:44:16,079 --> 00:44:18,319
weeks or months you have feedback on

935
00:44:18,319 --> 00:44:20,560
these specific goals or would like me to

936
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,560
look at different things, please call

937
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,440
me, text me, email me, and I'm happy to

938
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,200
look at those things. But I just wanted

939
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,760
to bring you my goals of what I'm

940
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:31,760
looking for this year in addition to

941
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:33,359
there's lots of other things I'm doing,

942
00:44:33,359 --> 00:44:37,760
not just these four goals. So,

943
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:38,560
>> thank you.

944
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:42,000
5.10 10 superintendent

945
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,640
report.

946
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:48,000
>> Um, so just just a quick snapshot of of

947
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,720
what's going on. Um, I was involved in

948
00:44:50,720 --> 00:44:52,079
the bus rodeo at the beginning of the

949
00:44:52,079 --> 00:44:54,240
year. I actually drove a bus. I don't

950
00:44:54,240 --> 00:44:55,599
know if that's legal or not. I don't

951
00:44:55,599 --> 00:44:58,079
have my CDL, but I was going under the

952
00:44:58,079 --> 00:44:59,280
speed limit.

953
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,680
>> Um, and I did very well. Some of the bus

954
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,440
drivers were surprised.

955
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:05,280
>> Were you on private property? I drove it

956
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,079
backwards without hitting a cone

957
00:45:08,079 --> 00:45:10,480
>> and weaved in and out of of several

958
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:14,960
cones. I was pretty proud of myself. Um

959
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,359
I I've been trying really hard to be

960
00:45:17,359 --> 00:45:19,680
more visible on the campuses and

961
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,640
substitute teach. And so I was thankful

962
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,880
for Becky Clark. She allowed me to come

963
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:27,599
and substitute teach a couple periods

964
00:45:27,599 --> 00:45:29,680
where she took another teacher and they

965
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,560
went and viewed other instruction. Um,

966
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,880
so I was super happy to do that and help

967
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,240
her and in her goals. Um, I recently

968
00:45:38,240 --> 00:45:42,319
substituted in fourth grade at Nicholas

969
00:45:42,319 --> 00:45:46,160
and that was a fantastic experience. Um,

970
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:49,359
Monday I'm I'm going to substitute in

971
00:45:49,359 --> 00:45:53,920
first grade at Mrs. Gillespiey's class

972
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,880
and I'm excited about that and scared at

973
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:58,560
the same time. [laughter]

974
00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:02,319
Um, so I'm trying to do more of that to

975
00:46:02,319 --> 00:46:04,560
and and one of the great things about

976
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:08,000
doing that is I'm completely always

977
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,560
reminded of how difficult it is to be a

978
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,280
teacher. They have a really challenging

979
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,319
job and they do it really really well

980
00:46:16,319 --> 00:46:18,160
and it just makes me appreciate our

981
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,720
teachers even more and and what they do

982
00:46:20,720 --> 00:46:22,560
every single day.

983
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,319
Um,

984
00:46:24,319 --> 00:46:26,720
we were able to fix our auditorium that

985
00:46:26,720 --> 00:46:29,599
was kind of an emergency situation where

986
00:46:29,599 --> 00:46:31,760
we had some lightning issues and it

987
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,319
burned through our our fire alarm system

988
00:46:34,319 --> 00:46:36,000
or shortcircuited and we had to get that

989
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:37,280
repaired. I wanted to make sure you're

990
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:40,160
aware of that. Um, I've decided I wanted

991
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:44,960
to start a aspiring principal um cadre

992
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,280
if you will. We I was surprised. I

993
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,359
emailed the district. We had about 15

994
00:46:49,359 --> 00:46:53,280
people express a desire to see what

995
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:54,960
leadership opportunities they can be

996
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:56,720
available for. So my first meeting is

997
00:46:56,720 --> 00:47:00,640
this Friday and I I'm excited about

998
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:08,000
seeing how I can help future leaders if wherever they may go. Um we had the

999
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:11,200
Nexus Coalition come in and talk about,

1000
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:13,920
you know, what they can do to help our

1001
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,400
students, staff, our our community. That

1002
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,359
was a good presentation. Um, we also had

1003
00:47:19,359 --> 00:47:21,359
the FBI,

1004
00:47:21,359 --> 00:47:23,680
um, we had special agent Tai Woods come

1005
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:27,119
out and present to the community. Um,

1006
00:47:27,119 --> 00:47:28,880
Mr. Paul Wyatt was there, so I want to

1007
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:31,760
thank him that we looked at what are the

1008
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,079
dangers of what's what's happening on

1009
00:47:34,079 --> 00:47:37,280
the internet. Um, particularly sex

1010
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,680
exploitation of minors. It's a real

1011
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,079
thing. It's happening in Xolo. Uh the

1012
00:47:42,079 --> 00:47:44,880
FBI gave some startling statistics and

1013
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:47,760
so I would like to see if if we can

1014
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,400
really do a better job of educating our

1015
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:53,040
students at the secondary level of all

1016
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,200
the dangers that are are lurking out

1017
00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:58,079
there and it's it's scary if you don't

1018
00:47:58,079 --> 00:47:59,920
know what's going on. Um

1019
00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:03,839
>> did they by chance say an age that these

1020
00:48:03,839 --> 00:48:07,359
kids are having their first encounter?

1021
00:48:07,359 --> 00:48:09,040
>> It's in the elementary age.

1022
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:11,119
>> Yeah. So, we probably ought to be

1023
00:48:11,119 --> 00:48:13,599
looking maybe a little bit younger than

1024
00:48:13,599 --> 00:48:15,599
>> we definitely will be. And and and I

1025
00:48:15,599 --> 00:48:17,040
just want to let the board know I'm

1026
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:20,000
going to be getting a a presentation

1027
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:24,160
from the FBI and my goal is to then see

1028
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:25,839
how we can scale it down to different

1029
00:48:25,839 --> 00:48:27,520
age groups. And then if parents want to

1030
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:31,440
opt out, they can opt out. But we're going to start educating parents

1031
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:34,800
or or kids and parents. There's so much

1032
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,440
danger out there online. And what we're

1033
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:39,520
finding out is that parents don't know

1034
00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,359
what their kids are looking at. Parents

1035
00:48:41,359 --> 00:48:44,640
are letting kids have phones all night

1036
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:48,240
and they're doing it all types of of

1037
00:48:48,240 --> 00:48:51,200
searching all types of chats and we we

1038
00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:54,079
it's just it's scary what's what's out

1039
00:48:54,079 --> 00:48:54,319
there.

1040
00:48:54,319 --> 00:48:55,839
>> Scary.

1041
00:48:55,839 --> 00:48:57,119
>> Very scary.

1042
00:48:57,119 --> 00:48:59,680
>> Um I also want to thank uh President

1043
00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:03,200
Larson. um he he you set up a meeting

1044
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:05,839
with the CEO of Summit Healthcare and so

1045
00:49:05,839 --> 00:49:07,839
it ties into what Mr. Butler was talking

1046
00:49:07,839 --> 00:49:10,400
about about work-based learning. So, I'm

1047
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:12,319
going to be communicating with him to

1048
00:49:12,319 --> 00:49:13,839
see how we can strengthen that

1049
00:49:13,839 --> 00:49:17,119
partnership of doing work-based learning

1050
00:49:17,119 --> 00:49:20,640
for HVAC maintenance, for nursing, for

1051
00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:23,680
human resources, for clerical, for cuz

1052
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:25,920
the hospital's like a miniature city and

1053
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:27,680
we could send a lot of students over

1054
00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:29,839
there on a lot of different career

1055
00:49:29,839 --> 00:49:32,079
trajectories to get work-based learning

1056
00:49:32,079 --> 00:49:34,400
experience. So, thank you for setting up

1057
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:35,920
that meeting. We're going to try to

1058
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:38,720
continue to grow that relationship.

1059
00:49:38,720 --> 00:49:41,440
Um,

1060
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,000
and that's that, you know, I'm I'm I'm

1061
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:45,119
trying to meet with our elected

1062
00:49:45,119 --> 00:49:47,920
officials and trying to get a head start

1063
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:51,119
on the legislative um initiatives that

1064
00:49:51,119 --> 00:49:52,880
are going to be happening at the capital

have a have a stronger voice at the

1068
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:03,030

» Thank you very much.

1070
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,920
>> Thank you for all you do.

1071
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:10,880
I know you're a busy man. I'm excited to

1072
00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:13,040
see if the principles re, you know,

1073
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:15,440

00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:19,839
>> I have not had a repeat yet. So, that

1077
00:50:19,839 --> 00:50:20,960
may tell you something.

1078
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:24,079
>> Yeah. We'd like an eval written eval

Certified employment Dr. Farnsworth.

00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,680
>> So, we would ask that the board approve

1107
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:32,160
these recommendations. And as you heard

1108
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,480
tonight, we're very excited about uh

1109
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:36,640

1112
00:51:42,079 --> 00:51:44,880
excited to also recommend Summer Murphy

1113
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:47,760
as a dean of students for Whipple. And

1114
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:49,359
as you notice on the bottom, there's a

1115
00:51:49,359 --> 00:51:51,280
transfer for Miss Reagan Roach. She's

1116
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:53,680
not going anywhere, but she completed

1117
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:57,280
her certification as a a full legitimate

1121

>> Perfect. Congratulations.

1122

pages of of paraprofessionals and other

1134
00:52:36,319 --> 00:52:38,800

1135
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:42,240

We're sad to see him go. We wish him the

1151
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:15,359
very best. Um but we would ask that you

1152
00:53:15,359 --> 00:53:17,599
would approve his resignation.

1153
00:53:17,599 --> 00:53:19,200

00:53:21,599 --> 00:53:22,319

to approve those resignations as listed.

1165
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:47,040
I move to approve all classified

>> So, we have a list of certified

1172
00:54:01,839 --> 00:54:04,640
substitutes. Um, they're different than

1173
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:06,720
the emergency substitute. So they have

1174
00:54:06,720 --> 00:54:08,559
the certified credentials and we would

1175
00:54:08,559 --> 00:54:10,800
ask that the board approve these

1176
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:13,119
certified individuals to be substitute

1177
00:54:13,119 --> 00:54:15,760
teachers for the district.

1178
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,000
>> Do you've got a classified list there

1179
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,559
also? Do we need to do both of them or

1180
00:54:20,559 --> 00:54:21,920
two separate?

1181
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:22,880
>> We [clears throat] do them in one shot.

1182
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:23,359
Looks like

1183
00:54:23,359 --> 00:54:24,880
>> we can do them in one shot. Yes. Yes,

1184
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:25,200
sir.

1185
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:27,520
>> Okay. So certified and classified. I'll

1186
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:28,480
entertain a motion.

1187
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:30,400
>> I move to approve certified and

1188
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:32,880
classified substitute employment as

1189
00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:34,000
presented.

1190
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:37,200
>> Second. Motion, a second. All in favor?

1191
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:41,440
>> I opposed. 6.7. Motion passes. 6.7

1192
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:43,359
coaches, volunteers, and interns. Dr.

1193
00:54:43,359 --> 00:54:46,000
Farnsworth. We have one volunteer that

1194
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:48,400
we're asking for the board to approve to

1195
00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:51,440
be a seventh grade football coach. Um,

1196
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:53,280
and that's a volunteer position, not a

1197
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:54,800
paid position.

1198
00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:58,319
>> I move to approve the coach, volunteers,

1199
00:54:58,319 --> 00:55:00,880
and interns actions as presented.

1200
00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:02,000
>> I'll second.

1201
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:05,839
>> Motion second. All in favor? I opposed.

1202
00:55:05,839 --> 00:55:08,720
Motion passes 6.8 new job description

1203
00:55:08,720 --> 00:55:11,200
for human resources position

1204
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:13,280
classification and compensation study.

1205
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,520
Dr. Farnsworth.

1206
00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:17,599
So, you know, the last couple years

1207
00:55:17,599 --> 00:55:19,119
we've been looking and analyzing

1208
00:55:19,119 --> 00:55:20,720
different positions in the district. We

1209
00:55:20,720 --> 00:55:22,319
did, as you know, we did a salary study

1210
00:55:22,319 --> 00:55:24,240
and then we looked at our classified

1211
00:55:24,240 --> 00:55:26,400
folks and we implemented a classified

1212
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:28,960
salary adjustment over several years.

1213
00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:31,440
One of the areas that we didn't address

1214
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:33,359
right off the bat was our human

1215
00:55:33,359 --> 00:55:35,920
resources. Um, after further

1216
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:37,680
investigation, we did do a market

1217
00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:40,160
analysis and you can see that that

1218
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:42,880
20page document and the focus of that

1219
00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:46,640
analysis was how do we compare to other

1220
00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,720
schools on the mountain? We don't want

1221
00:55:48,720 --> 00:55:50,720
to look at the county. We don't want to

1222
00:55:50,720 --> 00:55:52,240
look at the city. We don't want to look

1223
00:55:52,240 --> 00:55:53,920
at private business because frankly we

1224
00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,160
don't compete financially. But when we

1225
00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:57,839
look at other districts, how do we

1226
00:55:57,839 --> 00:55:59,599
compare in terms of our staffing and in

1227
00:55:59,599 --> 00:56:01,760
terms of our compensation, in terms of

1228
00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:03,359
the job description? And so what you

1229
00:56:03,359 --> 00:56:06,480
have before you is the analysis that

1230
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:09,280
we're bringing to you that we believe

1231
00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:12,799
that it is an expense, but we're already

1232
00:56:12,799 --> 00:56:16,000
doing overtime. I'm I'm asking that the

1233
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:18,240
board would invest in the stability and

1234
00:56:18,240 --> 00:56:20,559
infrastructure in the human resource

1235
00:56:20,559 --> 00:56:23,359
department in rural school districts.

1236
00:56:23,359 --> 00:56:26,000
It's it's very unique. Miss Boyer, you

1237
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,040
know, you have positions where

1238
00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:30,799
one person is doing that job for the

1239
00:56:30,799 --> 00:56:32,240
whole district. Like we have one person

1240
00:56:32,240 --> 00:56:34,559
doing payroll for the whole district. We

1241
00:56:34,559 --> 00:56:36,640
have one director over grants and

1242
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:38,799
programs for the whole district. We've

1243
00:56:38,799 --> 00:56:42,160
got one person doing data entry for

1244
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:44,480
power school in in the entire district.

1245
00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:46,960
And we also have one person doing HR for

1246
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,839
the entire district. Um, we have tried

1247
00:56:49,839 --> 00:56:51,760
the last six months to see how we can

1248
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:55,599
flex job duties to increase staffing

1249
00:56:55,599 --> 00:56:58,160
from just one person to a half a person.

1250
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,200
So, 1.5 people helping and that other

1251
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,680
person being cross-trained as a payroll

1252
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:06,799
clerk backup. So, we're trying to help

1253
00:57:06,799 --> 00:57:09,520
support HR but also else also support

1254
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:15,200
payroll. And so we just feel like this is an appropriate time to ask the

1255
00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:17,119
board to approve the revised job

1256
00:57:17,119 --> 00:57:19,920
description and ask that you would

1257
00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:21,839
approve it. And I'm here to answer any

1258
00:57:21,839 --> 00:57:25,349
questions.

1259
00:57:25,359 --> 00:57:27,359
» I move to approve the reclassification

1260
00:57:27,359 --> 00:57:30,160
of the human resource specialist to

1261
00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:33,200
human resource executive manager as

1262
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:39,030
presented.

1263
00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:42,160
So, I will second this so that we can

1264
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:44,720
talk about it.

1265
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:48,640
Um, are I Are you are you telling me

1266
00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:51,280
that we're spending enough on overtime

1267
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:55,359
and whatnot to compensate for this?

1268
00:57:55,359 --> 00:57:59,839
>> In in my initial analysis from July,

1269
00:57:59,839 --> 00:58:01,839
August, and part of September, we've

1270
00:58:01,839 --> 00:58:05,599
accumulated 133 hours in overtime.

1271
00:58:05,599 --> 00:58:08,000
So, if you extrapolate that out and the

1272
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:10,640
rate at which we're paying overtime,

1273
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:13,119
it justifies an a change in job

1274
00:58:13,119 --> 00:58:15,760
description, um adding additional duties

1275
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:17,599
of supervision,

1276
00:58:17,599 --> 00:58:19,599
transitioning from an hourly employee to

1277
00:58:19,599 --> 00:58:21,680
an exempt employee, which would also

1278
00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:23,359
incur this individual would then

1279
00:58:23,359 --> 00:58:25,359
supervise three other people in the

1280
00:58:25,359 --> 00:58:28,000
district to justify going to an exempt

1281
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:29,520
status. And [snorts] for those of you

1282
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:31,359
who may not know, exempt status means

1283
00:58:31,359 --> 00:58:33,760
you don't qualify for overtime anymore.

1284
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:36,000
like I'm an exempt employee. All of the

1285
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:38,160
administrators are exempt employees. You

1286
00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:41,359
work until the job gets done 9:00, 10:00

1287
00:58:41,359 --> 00:58:43,280
at night, 5:00 a.m. in the morning, what

1288
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:46,880
whatever that is. So that's that's what

1289
00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:48,720
we're asking the board to approve that

1290
00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:53,760
currently on the current trajectory, we this individual is acrewing a lot of

1291
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:57,280
overtime and it w it was like that with

1292
00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:58,799
the previous person. We were trying to

1293
00:58:58,799 --> 00:59:01,119
help mitigate that with other people.

1294
00:59:01,119 --> 00:59:03,359
Um, it's just a very demanding job when

1295
00:59:03,359 --> 00:59:06,079
you look at 300 employees and you have

1296
00:59:06,079 --> 00:59:08,480
one person doing all the reporting, all

1297
00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:11,440
the onboarding, all the paper

1298
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:13,920
documentation, the background checks,

1299
00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:17,359
the I-9 forms. I mean I mean there there

1300
00:59:17,359 --> 00:59:18,799
there's an extensive amount,

1301
00:59:18,799 --> 00:59:20,880
>> but I don't think it's just one person

1302
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:22,559
doing that. Correct.

1303
00:59:22,559 --> 00:59:25,119
We have tried in the last couple months,

1304
00:59:25,119 --> 00:59:28,319
>> a payroll clerk, we have our new person

1305
00:59:28,319 --> 00:59:31,440
and then we also have somebody who's an

1306
00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:33,040
assistant if I

1307
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:34,559
>> that that's been a recent adjustment.

1308
00:59:34,559 --> 00:59:37,280
So, we we've taken one of the accounts

1309
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:39,760
payable person and said, "Okay, we're

1310
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:43,119
going to split them to to train as a

1311
00:59:43,119 --> 00:59:45,359
payroll clerk, as a backup, but also

1312
00:59:45,359 --> 00:59:48,000
help them flex to HR to help with

1313
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,799
onboarding, paperwork, filing, those

1314
00:59:50,799 --> 00:59:52,880
types of things. So, that's a recent

1315
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:54,640
develop within the last four to five

1316
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:57,760
months." Um, and I forgot your other

1317
00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:03,280
question, Kelly. Um well I guess that was just we have the same well we

1318
01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:05,119
have two and a half people. So

1319
01:00:05,119 --> 01:00:07,520
>> we also have payroll right? Pay payroll

1320
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:08,720
does data entry

1321
01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:11,520
>> payroll also is very automated anymore.

1322
01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:13,520
I mean we do have what is the name of

1323
01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:16,480
the program that we utilize? Um

1324
01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:17,040
>> visions.

1325
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:18,960
I was going to say visions but

1326
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:20,559
I wasn't sure if it still was.

1327
01:00:20,559 --> 01:00:22,960
>> So we have visions and we have TCP that

1328
01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:24,240
helps with the payroll.

1329
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:27,599
>> Right. and and the fact so I'm probably

1330
01:00:27,599 --> 01:00:30,079
not in support of doing it and and I've

1331
01:00:30,079 --> 01:00:32,880
discussed it with you um because I don't

1332
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:35,599
want to approve any more directive

1333
01:00:35,599 --> 01:00:37,760
director type situations or

1334
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:40,559
administrative um I want to approve

1335
01:00:40,559 --> 01:00:42,960
positions that are directly involved

1336
01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:45,359
with our students and helping our

1337
01:00:45,359 --> 01:00:47,280
students out. So, I guess that's kind of

1338
01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:49,760
where my mindset is because we're

1339
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:51,680
constantly being told that we don't have

1340
01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:53,760
a whole lot of money, which you

1341
01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:56,319
indicated that earlier, you know, and

1342
01:00:56,319 --> 01:00:58,000
that we're trying to find different ways

1343
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:01,520
to find money, and this is how do we

1344
01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:03,920
find money for an administrative

1345
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:07,839
position? So, I guess I'm more likely

1346
01:01:07,839 --> 01:01:10,480
and inclined to approve positions that

1347
01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:12,640
are directly affecting a student's

1348
01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:16,000
education. We've had 300 employees in

1349
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:20,559
our district since what 2010 maybe you

1350
01:01:20,559 --> 01:01:22,799
know and so we don't have more students

1351
01:01:22,799 --> 01:01:25,599
that are supporting um you know in our

1352
01:01:25,599 --> 01:01:29,920
enrollment. So we really 300 is max. I

1353
01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:32,880
remember at one point having like 330

1354
01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:35,599
employees and we only did have one

1355
01:01:35,599 --> 01:01:37,760
person who did it and somebody who

1356
01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:40,240
double checked payroll. So, you know, I'

1357
01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:42,240
I've kind [clears throat] of I have a

1358
01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:44,319
hard time justifying it at this point in

1359
01:01:44,319 --> 01:01:46,720
time. So, that's just kind of where I'm

1360
01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:50,069
at.

1361
01:01:50,079 --> 01:01:54,799
» Joe, um the the previous person or

1362
01:01:54,799 --> 01:01:57,040
persons, however many you want to go

1363
01:01:57,040 --> 01:01:58,720
back,

1364
01:01:58,720 --> 01:01:59,680
>> and then the current

1365
01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:03,440
>> you in the last year or couple years, it

1366
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:04,640
seems like

1367
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,647
>> I'm I'm curious. Are are these folks

1368
01:02:07,647 --> 01:02:10,319
[snorts] carrying any sort of

1369
01:02:10,319 --> 01:02:13,920
certifications in in the particular

1370
01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:15,440
field

1371
01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:17,200
uh degrees?

1372
01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:19,200
Um

1373
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:22,160
>> so so let me give you a 30,000 foot

1374
01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:25,760
view. Typically if you say you have a HR

1375
01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:28,960
director that comes with at least a

1376
01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:31,119
bachelor's degree if not more. And

1377
01:02:31,119 --> 01:02:32,799
that's what a director level position

1378
01:02:32,799 --> 01:02:37,599
you can demand that right. And that's pretty standard in the HR field

1379
01:02:37,599 --> 01:02:39,520
when you don't have that position as a

1380
01:02:39,520 --> 01:02:40,960
director. So for example, we have a

1381
01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:43,119
director of federal programs, master's

1382
01:02:43,119 --> 01:02:44,480
degree, director of curriculum

1383
01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:47,119
instruction, master's degree, director

1384
01:02:47,119 --> 01:02:50,480
of technology, I think that person has

1385
01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:52,640
more than a bachelor's.

1386
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:56,000
I don't know. But when you say you have

1387
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:59,280
now label a director position that that

1388
01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:02,400
in my experience you can demand a a

1389
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:05,680
bachelor's or higher. So if you don't do

1390
01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:08,240
that now you're now you're paying below

1391
01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:10,559
market value. And if that's if that's

1392
01:03:10,559 --> 01:03:11,839
the direction you want to go that's

1393
01:03:11,839 --> 01:03:14,480
fine. Then you're basing your

1394
01:03:14,480 --> 01:03:16,079
qualifications on do you have

1395
01:03:16,079 --> 01:03:18,799
certifications. The previous person did

1396
01:03:18,799 --> 01:03:21,520
not have certifications. And so that was

1397
01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:22,799
the conversation I had with that

1398
01:03:22,799 --> 01:03:25,039
individual is I need you to go get

1399
01:03:25,039 --> 01:03:26,960
certifications. I need you to go back to

1400
01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:29,680
school and it came down to a livable

1401
01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:32,799
wage. I can't go to school and also put

1402
01:03:32,799 --> 01:03:35,280
food on the table and and and put pay

1403
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:37,200
for tuition and things like that. I

1404
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:41,039
financially can't do that. And so

1405
01:03:41,039 --> 01:03:44,319
my experience or my my investment in

1406
01:03:44,319 --> 01:03:46,559
this position would be if if we don't do

1407
01:03:46,559 --> 01:03:48,000
that, that's fine. That's the board's

1408
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:50,960
prerogative. But we I think we're we're

1409
01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:53,599
rolling the dice into constantly having

1410
01:03:53,599 --> 01:03:56,799
somebody every one or two two years

1411
01:03:56,799 --> 01:03:58,720
because it's a demanding job and when

1412
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:00,880
you get somebody in the job and the

1413
01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:03,359
salary doesn't equate to the hours

1414
01:04:03,359 --> 01:04:06,000
they're going to go I you're not paying

1415
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:08,960
me what I'm worth because I know what

1416
01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:10,640
they pay at Summit. I know what they pay

1417
01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:12,400
at the county. I know what they pay at

1418
01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:14,400
the district up the road and we're not

1419
01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:16,079
comparable.

1420
01:04:16,079 --> 01:04:19,280
So that's that's what I'm asking is is

1421
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:21,280
the board to look at it through the lens

1422
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,119
of investment. Now is there any

1423
01:04:23,119 --> 01:04:25,920
guarantee that anybody will not leave?

1424
01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:29,359
No, there's no guarantee, right? But but

1425
01:04:29,359 --> 01:04:31,839
my approach would be can we invest in

1426
01:04:31,839 --> 01:04:33,520
that position because it is a critical

1427
01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:36,319
position. a lot of compliance, a lot of

1428
01:04:36,319 --> 01:04:39,920
reporting, a lot of legal ease, a a lot

1429
01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:42,160
of employee investigations that that I

1430
01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:44,960
help with, but I'm also supposed to be

1431
01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:47,520
the de facto appeal person, too. And if

1432
01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:49,440
I'm involved in the investigation,

1433
01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:50,799
there's no place for the person to

1434
01:04:50,799 --> 01:04:53,599
appeal except for outside counsel. So,

1435
01:04:53,599 --> 01:04:55,440
those are just my observations. Those

1436
01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:58,079
are my recommendations. I I feel like we

1437
01:04:58,079 --> 01:05:00,880
did a very in-depth market analysis

1438
01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:02,960
where we took a very strategic approach

1439
01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:05,839
to see what is the market telling us

1440
01:05:05,839 --> 01:05:08,079
about this particular position. If we're

1441
01:05:08,079 --> 01:05:09,920
not going to make it a director

1442
01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:12,720
position, okay, fine. Then we can't

1443
01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:14,000
dictate you got to have these

1444
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:16,160
credentials or these and and frankly

1445
01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:18,720
it's very hard in up here on the

1446
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:21,280
mountain to find people with that level

1447
01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:23,440
of expertise unless you're going to pay

1448
01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:26,720
them for their expertise.

1449
01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:28,240
So I think we should advertise that when

1450
01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:30,400
the positions open opens up, not after

1451
01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:32,559
we've hired someone and then adjust it

1452
01:05:32,559 --> 01:05:35,920
to accommodate them. And the only push

1453
01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:37,440
back I have on this is we just talked

1454
01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:39,039
for a year and a half about our budget

1455
01:05:39,039 --> 01:05:41,520
and this didn't come up once. So if it's

1456
01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:43,440
been a priority for a while, wasn't why

1457
01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:45,599
wasn't there any conversations about it?

1458
01:05:45,599 --> 01:05:47,520
>> There have been internal conversations

1459
01:05:47,520 --> 01:05:47,920
where

1460
01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:48,960
>> it's been it should have been part of

1461
01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:50,960
the budget conversation. We talked about

1462
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:52,799
all of our budget

1463
01:05:52,799 --> 01:05:55,280
>> at the time. It it was not a priority.

1464
01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:56,799
the priority was taking care of our

1465
01:05:56,799 --> 01:05:58,720
hourly folks that were severely

1466
01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:00,799
underpaid.

1467
01:06:00,799 --> 01:06:03,119
>> But at that point in time, we also

1468
01:06:03,119 --> 01:06:06,079
increased that position um the payroll

1469
01:06:06,079 --> 01:06:09,520
clerk by quite a a bit of money. We we

1470
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:11,760
increased a lot of salaries for a lot of

1471
01:06:11,760 --> 01:06:12,640
hourly people

1472
01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:15,920
>> and and so that was based on the salary

1473
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:18,880
um salary survey that was brought to us

1474
01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:21,920
and we did as you guys recommended for

1475
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:24,400
us to do and I believe it was over

1476
01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:26,319
$80,000

1477
01:06:26,319 --> 01:06:30,000
that wasn't it over $80,000 or may have

1478
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:31,839
even been more. I don't I'm kind of

1479
01:06:31,839 --> 01:06:32,160
going

1480
01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:33,920
>> Oh, you mean total compensation for

1481
01:06:33,920 --> 01:06:37,280
>> Yes. When we just did it for classified

1482
01:06:37,280 --> 01:06:40,130
employees. Well, I'm I'm I'm happy to

1483
01:06:40,130 --> 01:06:41,280
[clears throat] take the blame that I

1484
01:06:41,280 --> 01:06:43,520
did not have the foresight to to bring

1485
01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:46,559
this up. I mean,

1486
01:06:46,559 --> 01:06:48,960
I'm sorry I I didn't bring it when we

1487
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,119
talked about all the other compensation.

1488
01:06:51,119 --> 01:06:53,920
My priority was

1489
01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:56,559
all the grounds,

1490
01:06:56,559 --> 01:07:00,559
facilities, custodians, and I I

1491
01:07:00,559 --> 01:07:02,400
apologize. I did not bring that up at

1492
01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:03,440
this time at that time.

1493
01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:05,680
>> We did get it across the board. So, you

1494
01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:07,920
know, for me, I feel like it's all of a

1495
01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:10,079
sudden, ooh, this is urgent and this is

1496
01:07:10,079 --> 01:07:12,720
something we need to act upon right now

1497
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:14,880
when yeah, we should have been given

1498
01:07:14,880 --> 01:07:17,839
some notice if this was going to be. So,

1499
01:07:17,839 --> 01:07:20,559
I don't know, maybe we need some time to

1500
01:07:20,559 --> 01:07:23,440
think about it as well. I I don't know.

1501
01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:26,160
But anyway, thank you.

1502
01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:28,240
>> So, Joe, we've I've heard the word

1503
01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:30,880
director. I don't see the word director

1504
01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:32,079
in this.

1505
01:07:32,079 --> 01:07:33,839
>> This is not a director level position.

1506
01:07:33,839 --> 01:07:35,440
This is not a director. Okay. I just

1507
01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:36,319
want to clarify that

1508
01:07:36,319 --> 01:07:39,680
>> it's an executive manager position that

1509
01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:43,680
we were asking the board. Um, and I hope

1510
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:45,200
the boards understand I'm I'm trying to

1511
01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:48,000
take a a pragmatic strategic approach

1512
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:49,440
and if I can solve the problem before

1513
01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:50,559
bringing it to the board, that's what

1514
01:07:50,559 --> 01:07:53,200
I'm trying to do. It is now come to my

1515
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:54,960
attention through this market analysis

1516
01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,680
that I feel we need to make this change

1517
01:07:57,680 --> 01:07:59,359
and so that's why I'm bringing it to the

1518
01:07:59,359 --> 01:08:01,280
board at this time.

1519
01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:03,119
>> Okay. Is there any other discussion?

1520
01:08:03,119 --> 01:08:04,960
Angela, do you have anything?

1521
01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:06,160
>> I don't.

1522
01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:09,920
>> Okay. So, uh, Angela

1523
01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:12,480
motioned. I seconded so that we could

1524
01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:14,319
have this discussion. I'll call for a

1525
01:08:14,319 --> 01:08:17,040
vote. All in favor? I

1526
01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:19,199
>> opposed.

1527
01:08:19,199 --> 01:08:22,080
>> Okay. So, that's 22. What I'd ask you to

1528
01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:26,159
do is bring this back to us. Um, either

1529
01:08:26,159 --> 01:08:28,000
I don't know if you want to schedule a a

1530
01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:29,759
special meeting or whatever between now

1531
01:08:29,759 --> 01:08:33,600
and October. No, we don't.

1532
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:36,080
>> I just, you know, however you want to

1533
01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:37,759
work that

1534
01:08:37,759 --> 01:08:38,400
next meeting

1535
01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:40,159
>> at the October meeting when we're that

1536
01:08:40,159 --> 01:08:43,359
much closer to Christmas. Okay. All

1537
01:08:43,359 --> 01:08:46,319
right. Please do that. Uh, and in the

1538
01:08:46,319 --> 01:08:48,640
meantime, you know, any and all

1539
01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:51,440
information that we can get together and

1540
01:08:51,440 --> 01:08:53,120
learn and [snorts]

1541
01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:54,640
whatnot.

1542
01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:57,839
Uh, I would appreciate if we did that.

1543
01:08:57,839 --> 01:09:00,239
6.9 Arizona State Seal of Arts

1544
01:09:00,239 --> 01:09:02,799
Proficiency. Dr. Farnsworth.

1545
01:09:02,799 --> 01:09:05,040
>> So, if you may remember, the high school

1546
01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:08,560
has multiple seals of excellence.

1547
01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:11,600
Um, and so this is another seal of

1548
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:14,239
excellent excellence puts put on by the

1549
01:09:14,239 --> 01:09:16,480
Arizona Department of Education. And

1550
01:09:16,480 --> 01:09:19,199
this is a proposal from the high school

1551
01:09:19,199 --> 01:09:21,520
principal, Mr. Marchant, that the board

1552
01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:25,040
formally approve this seal of excellence

1553
01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:27,600
for the fine arts. And I think it's a

1554
01:09:27,600 --> 01:09:29,279
great idea.

1555
01:09:29,279 --> 01:09:31,199
I move to approve the Xolo High School

1556
01:09:31,199 --> 01:09:32,719

01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:36,800
>> Every year we need to bring to the the

1621
01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:39,120
board for approval our school facilities

1622
01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:43,040
plan and so Mr. Rail has done a a great

1623
01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:44,960
job in capturing that. A lot of these

1624
01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:46,480
are new requirements put on by the

1625
01:12:46,480 --> 01:12:49,280
school facilities board and so we need

1626
01:12:49,280 --> 01:12:51,679
governing board approval so that we can

1627
01:12:51,679 --> 01:12:53,920
upload this so we can be in line for

1628
01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:56,480
hopefully future building grants because

1629
01:12:56,480 --> 01:12:58,159
if we don't they won't give us any

1630
01:12:58,159 --> 01:13:01,280
building grants.

1631
01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:04,400
I move to approve the FY2027

1632
01:13:04,400 --> 01:13:07,360
capital plan to the Arizona School

1633
01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:10,320
Facilities Oversight Board as presented.

1634
01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:11,440
>> A second.

1635
01:13:11,440 --> 01:13:13,040
>> I have a motion and a second. All in

1636
01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:13,679
favor?

1637
01:13:13,679 --> 01:13:18,400
>> I opposed. Motion passes.

1638
01:13:18,400 --> 01:13:20,239
6.12

1639
01:13:20,239 --> 01:13:22,480
Preventative Maintenance Guidelines. Dr.

1640
01:13:22,480 --> 01:13:24,640
Farnsworth. Again, this is one of those

1641
01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:27,360
annual uh plans that we also need to

1642
01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:29,199
submit to the board for approval so we

1643
01:13:29,199 --> 01:13:31,679
can upload our preventative maintenance

1644
01:13:31,679 --> 01:13:34,000
guide. This is um meeting the

1645
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:37,679
expectations of the minimum

1646
01:13:37,679 --> 01:13:40,320
guidelines for for maintenance that the

1647
01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:42,159
school district or the state is asking

1648
01:13:42,159 --> 01:13:44,159
us to complete. And so I would ask you

1649
01:13:44,159 --> 01:13:46,640
to approve this preventative maintenance

1650
01:13:46,640 --> 01:13:49,040
guide. I move to approve the

1651
01:13:49,040 --> 01:13:52,000
preventative maintenance guideline and

1652
01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:54,239
plan as presented. I'll

1653
01:13:54,239 --> 01:13:55,280
>> second.

1654
01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:57,679
>> Motion a second. All in favor?

1655
01:13:57,679 --> 01:14:01,120
>> I opposed. Motion passes. Thank you.

1656
01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:05,520
6.13 future board agenda items.

1657
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:07,120
Anybody have anything?

1658
01:14:07,120 --> 01:14:09,199
>> I do not.

1659
01:14:09,199 --> 01:14:12,239
>> No. Okay. You have listed here next

1660
01:14:12,239 --> 01:14:15,760
board meeting October 8th.

1661
01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:19,520
Uh, and then you're wanting to look at

1662
01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:21,679
an um work session.

1663
01:14:21,679 --> 01:14:24,000
>> So, yeah, a couple things. If if the

1664
01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:26,000
board is looking I would love to have a

1665
01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:28,320
work session with the board after fall

1666
01:14:28,320 --> 01:14:30,719
break. So, the probably the last two

1667
01:14:30,719 --> 01:14:35,199
weeks of October. Um, I don't know if

1668
01:14:35,199 --> 01:14:41,110
one week is better than the other, but

1669
01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:42,719
I'm hoping we can come together and have

1670
01:14:42,719 --> 01:14:44,960
a work session. The topic of the work

1671
01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:47,280
session would be capital projects,

1672
01:14:47,280 --> 01:14:50,239
school facilities, and potentially

1673
01:14:50,239 --> 01:14:51,760
looking at a bond. I have some

1674
01:14:51,760 --> 01:14:53,120
information I want to share with the

1675
01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:56,080
board that you may not have and then

1676
01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:59,199
just start talking about our facilities

1677
01:14:59,199 --> 01:15:00,880
and what that may look like going into

1678
01:15:00,880 --> 01:15:02,719
the future.

1679
01:15:02,719 --> 01:15:05,040
>> You want to do this the last two weeks

1680
01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:06,880
>> if if that would be agreeable that one

1681
01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:09,280
of the last two weeks of October.

1682
01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:14,390
>> 28 29 would be difficult for me.

1683
01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:15,520
Tuesday 27th.

1684
01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:17,679
>> 31st is my birthday. So that would be

1685
01:15:17,679 --> 01:15:18,239
difficult.

1686
01:15:18,239 --> 01:15:19,840
>> You're born on the Halloween Saturday. I

1687
01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:21,440
am. Yeah.

1688
01:15:21,440 --> 01:15:22,800
>> We can party. We can have

1689
01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:25,447
>> You wondered why I was witchy. Now you

1690
01:15:25,447 --> 01:15:28,080
[laughter] know.

1691
01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:30,239
>> That's awful.

1692
01:15:30,239 --> 01:15:32,800
>> Is Is there a week that would be better?

1693
01:15:32,800 --> 01:15:35,840
Either the 19th or the 26th. It sounds

1694
01:15:35,840 --> 01:15:36,560
like the

1695
01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:38,560
>> any I'm okay there. I just have stuff on

1696
01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:41,360
the 28th and 29th, but I won't be able

1697
01:15:41,360 --> 01:15:44,320
to get out of

1698
01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:46,400
>> I I just wouldn't couldn't wouldn't be

1699
01:15:46,400 --> 01:15:47,679
sure that I'd be back in time.

1700
01:15:47,679 --> 01:15:50,560
>> Can we look at the the the 19th the week

1701
01:15:50,560 --> 01:15:53,280
of the 19th? Does that

1702
01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:56,000
>> pick an A? Any of that works for me?

1703
01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:57,440
>> You want to shoot for a Monday or

1704
01:15:57,440 --> 01:15:59,280
Tuesday or what? Is there a day of the

1705
01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:03,189
week that works better?

1706
01:16:03,199 --> 01:16:04,320
» Tuesday.

1707
01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:05,600
>> Can we do a Tuesday? The 20th

1708
01:16:05,600 --> 01:16:07,679

look at capital improvements and

1714
01:16:19,440 --> 01:16:20,560
facilities.

1715
01:16:20,560 --> 01:16:23,600
>> I wonder if we could get the students to

1716
01:16:23,600 --> 01:16:27,040
uh facilitate what we

1717
01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:28,880

>> some gluten-free cupcakes. I'm sure

1719
01:16:30,719 --> 01:16:31,760

01:17:38,400 --> 01:17:41,840
