[0:00] 20 kids so far, so we have about 10 left on there, which is a good place to be that way as well, which is students deciding to go a different direction, you know. There's a couple of alternative options that students will go forward. So we're cited about that. Any questions about those numbers? I can't really see the top or it's listing the year. For some reason on my desktop, is that just painful? Let's see. Oh, and see. Is that better?
[0:31] Yes. Okay. Yeah. So the hammer on the left is our latest and greatest. So this one right here and then you have the average on the very far left. So this is this right here is our current that I'm talking about right now. Thank you.
[0:45] Any other questions on that?
[0:50] What? Is it a decrease over all around last year? No, no, I mean it might be a little less. I mean I guess it's a little less than we had last year.
[1:00] where our target area is somewhere between 200 to 220 that's what we're funded out and so anywhere in that range
[1:06] Is it is a good place and we're we're in that range. I think we're to await right now. Just good
[1:15] Colin you you said you're you've gone about 20 into your wait list and have a few more there
[1:21] Do you anticipate being able to accommodate most of the people on the wait list? I?
[1:28] I mean, it's harder once we get into the Europe,
[1:31] but sometimes we can bring some in at the semester
[1:33] and get a few more in.
[1:35] I imagine by the end of the year,
[1:36] we'll still have a couple on that way list,
[1:39] and we'll offer it to them coming into sophomores as well.
[1:42] And we've actually, you know,
[1:43] these numbers show our applications for freshmen.
[1:45] I've noticed they're trying to last few years.
[1:48] We have more freshmen and juniors trying to come in
[1:51] or sorry, sophomores and juniors trying to come in as well.
[1:54] And so I've got another 20-ish kids
[1:56] that aren't part of these numbers that apply it and get put on the back of the list
[2:02] to get in later, and we're able to bring a few of those every year as well.
[2:06] Okay, interesting.
[2:07] Yeah, I'm not sure why that trend is, but we've seen a few more sophomores and juniors
[2:11] applying, and we're able to bring in some of those each year, so that works well.
[2:15] Any other questions on that?
[2:19] Yeah, one thing I was talking to Khan is that with all this stuff we go,
[2:23] or I think it's important to bring in some of the great things that are happening as well,
[2:26] And I just want to say, we just had our back to school night just last week, we can have
[2:33] to go.
[2:34] And what we do for that, we bring in all the freshmen, we bring in all their parents,
[2:38] we explain what's going on, our student government leads our students in some great activities
[2:42] and get some snacks and things.
[2:44] We cookies for everybody and answer all the questions with the parents and just really impressed
[2:49] with our student government, all our teachers who come in to come be a part of that, just
[2:52] to help our people feel welcome here and we're really proud of that that our
[2:57] students and our families just feel so welcome here and that's the feedback we
[3:00] get on that so proud of our people and proud of what they're doing.
[3:06] Thank you.
[3:10] I'm sorry.
[3:13] Okay.
[3:14] Derek.
[3:18] Thank you.
[3:19] I still have that version of the little wrap and it looks like a pretty, pretty steady.
[3:26] It seems like a reverse.
[3:27] I was like, so kids, we're hoping we have that.
[3:30] You know, the first one for this one.
[3:32] Most of the kids just come to me.
[3:35] There are students.
[3:36] I'm sorry.
[3:37] So we always see a little bit higher number there from each one came in, but you know, we've gone through quite a bit as far as there on our way list,
[3:49] 35 is left.
[3:51] But we've been pushing, it's always the RPM cohorts a little harder for kids.
[3:56] It's a lot like the morning, the boys are always a little eager.
[4:00] We are doing three grantees on the way to go to the name.
[4:04] So, like the size of the computer, like STEM is the plus.
[4:10] You know, we don't want this to be head root just to the grantee.
[4:14] I know the goal-skinned programs are pushing forward.
[4:19] We think that's going to help.
[4:20] We have that also kind of pushing a little bit.
[4:23] let everybody know that we do have some room in the PM courts and as as
[4:29] Gavin said we actually see there are like a couple of juniors coming in as
[4:33] well I wanted to come to our program which is great to move in or they've heard
[4:37] about it from others and they can see how great it is and the first of the
[4:41] doing and so you know they have to work them in as well are you today when I have a
[4:48] I love the guys here here talking about what the ISD means and you know, I got a semi-year-old
[4:54] school that's playing, I tell him the programs.
[4:57] Yeah I told him what to do, I said, you know, get into the track program, go, do not
[5:01] miss three years, seven, eight, and that great-year summer.
[5:05] So they can play a school together, they can play a school.
[5:08] You got football players, you got tennis players together.
[5:11] So it's a really good thing, it's a great program.
[5:14] You know I would say pretty due to it but it's just like I really feel about partnership
[5:18] the end of Washington County. Just amazing. We're so well together. We're just so happy to work with them.
[5:25] You know, they're always just willing to help us do whatever it is. We don't quite have,
[5:30] you know, not quite as far as we just did sophomore and patient months. A couple days,
[5:34] Thursday and Friday, I had our exact kids really involved in that. They kind of went
[5:39] the first few days, and that way all those sophomores can see how this is going to be.
[5:44] you want to be one of these kids.
[5:46] Whether you want to grow up to have a council and kind of
[5:49] bring everybody in and then they will do all of our
[5:52] tech stuff and make you lay down all of this.
[5:55] And to always be crazy to be tech.
[5:57] And there's always something there.
[5:59] Get all the kids set up to campus here at E5 Tech.
[6:03] We can get you there on camera, boundary schools,
[6:05] all the log and information that we need.
[6:07] And really that's really exciting.
[6:09] Our first day, everybody's here Wednesday.
[6:13] That's awesome. During I have to say my son has been going to the orientation
[6:17] he's had a great time. So I wanted to ask that one.
[6:21] Awesome. Love you.
[6:23] Very cool. I did have a question a parent was asking
[6:27] if you, like during this school year, if you have kids drop out,
[6:31] are you able to pull from the wait list at that time in the middle of the year or?
[6:37] I'd like to say I'm knitting this, I imagine we can reach out to them, can you?
[6:41] Yeah, we have some systems built in, for example, we offer like an introductory math class
[6:46] twice in the spring.
[6:48] We offer it again, I mean, and the reason for that is for exactly what you ask, Joni, is
[6:53] for that ability to bring kids in mid-year, and if they come in mid-year as a sophomore
[6:58] then they're still on the associate degree track, and we work with them to do that.
[7:03] Perfect.
[7:03] And, Joe, at our campus, we'd actually kind of gotten tricky
[7:08] with the mid-year because our math tracks have gotten changed.
[7:10] But we've gone to a simplified math track.
[7:12] And I think we're going to be able to bring them in mid-year
[7:14] this year as well.
[7:16] Perfect.
[7:17] Any other questions or comments?
[7:21] OK.
[7:22] That was an informational item.
[7:24] So no action is required.
[7:25] We have the next item, which is 4.34 training, open,
[7:31] and public meetings act.
[7:32] This is regarding the requirements for the Utah's Open and Public Meeting Act, the Board
[7:38] will review the training material on our own, which is provided the links in both of
[7:44] those that Colin provided.
[7:49] And I think, and I don't remember in the past, I believe that we reported to Ben once we
[7:58] had completed that.
[7:59] And we reported that as completed for each board member.
[8:05] Can we make sure that we're doing that with this?
[8:09] Yes, I have a spreadsheet already created with the two different trainings of all the
[8:13] follow your names on it.
[8:14] So as you just let me know, I'll fill it in.
[8:17] Okay, maybe you do a group email and say this is for a completion of these acts and these
[8:23] responds directly or after their complete.
[8:26] and then that way we have it on record and we can log it if Tammy could make a start a historical
[8:34] record of that and be helpful. Okay.
[8:41] Um, any questions about the number one review of the
[8:45] expense, oh sorry, I can't see that small. Sorry, can you pull it a little? Yes.
[9:01] Sorry, sorry, sorry, it's just, yeah, number three, the board training and then, so any questions on the board training, the public, open and public meeting act requirement in questions or comments on that from the board,
[9:17] if not, we can move to the number four, which is the required board, Utah ethics training, any questions on that.
[9:25] Okay, and let's move forward with action item D. Teacher and student access the TSSA program
[9:35] for 2027 and Colin, can you take that?
[9:39] Yes, so this is a continuation we've had this for years now.
[9:43] So as part of the one of the requirements for this grant is that the framework requires board approval.
[9:50] so this is the same framework that the Board approved last year for the
[9:55] 2026 FY2026 TSSA grant and that the way we're going to use these funds is
[10:02] the way we've used them in the past is to improve school performance or student
[10:07] achievement and it will consist of teachers providing tutoring, counseling,
[10:14] county counselors, to fund tutors, summer school programs and after school programs
[10:18] So it's it's there's no change from prior years. This is this is one of the grants and requires those
[10:25] present to the board. Do you have any reports from prior years on the statistics from this
[10:36] allocation? I will have those ready. No, I do not right now. We're gathering information right now in
[10:42] multiple grants, but I will have that information for the October Board meeting. That's great.
[10:47] Any other questions on the TSA in the board?
[10:56] I don't know exactly what the summer school programs are.
[11:00] Actually, I might know something.
[11:03] Just my son, when he attended Utah Tech,
[11:07] we would get a list from a shell about summer programs,
[11:10] and I think there was some funding attached to some of them.
[11:14] And I don't know if that was part of our grant,
[11:17] or if it was something different.
[11:19] but do you remember that?
[11:21] We do some enrichment for the students
[11:23] that aren't meeting the cut scores for Alex
[11:27] in the half of the classroom.
[11:29] At the St. George campus, that's the case.
[11:32] For that, some like many boot camps
[11:33] that we use some of that funding for.
[11:36] And then Gavin, do you have some summer programs?
[11:38] Yeah, so when we test our incoming freshmen
[11:41] in the spring, so after they're accepted,
[11:44] after we do the lottery, we test them in March or April
[11:46] just to see where their baseline is
[11:48] and then we'll give them additional math support over the summer and this year we did English as well.
[11:53] That was new this year that we tried that and I think it was okay.
[11:58] I think we're gonna work on improving that but it was a good start and so we're just trying to provide that support.
[12:03] That math supports in a really good place and we've seen some really good improvement in our results.
[12:07] We're actually testing those same students again with a very similar assessment in the next week or two to see what the growth ended up being from those summer support programs that they engaged in.
[12:16] And so, excited to have those opportunities to help our kids be prepared for the type of program we have.
[12:24] That's great.
[12:26] Any other questions?
[12:27] This is an action item, so we'll need to vote on it being implemented, the 827.
[12:35] It would be to have a motion to approve the TSSA framework for the 27th school year.
[12:43] I mean, do I have a motion to approve the 2027 TSS a framework for the school year?
[12:56] Sure.
[12:57] Okay.
[12:58] Oh, go ahead, Bill.
[12:59] Oh, I was going to say just to clarify column, there are no changes proposed from last year,
[13:03] correct?
[13:07] They will get out of your way.
[13:08] Okay.
[13:09] So I'll make a motion to approve the TSSA program for 2027 as drafted.
[13:16] Okay.
[13:17] I will send it up.
[13:20] Bill seconds.
[13:21] Okay.
[13:23] Okay.
[13:24] I'm sorry.
[13:24] Thank you.
[13:25] Sorry.
[13:25] Bill seconded.
[13:26] Bill seconded.
[13:28] Great.
[13:28] All in favor say aye.
[13:30] Joan aye.
[13:31] Just a little bit of a discussion.
[13:33] Sure.
[13:34] The motion.
[13:35] Yes.
[13:36] So I think they've made a motion to approve the program.
[13:40] But I think we're approving the structure.
[13:43] And then we'll look at the program.
[13:47] I'll look at that.
[13:49] Over is that right?
[13:52] The grant doesn't require any further approval.
[13:55] I will, they just, the grant requires just the framework to be approved.
[13:59] That was a specific language in the grant.
[14:02] However, I will report on the outcomes of the 26 TSSA and the October Board meeting.
[14:09] Okay, so it's okay.
[14:11] We're okay to have a proof of the program not just the structure or do we need
[14:17] How do we need to frame motion?
[14:19] I can amend my motion to approve the framework of the PSSA program for 2026-2027
[14:30] Okay.
[14:31] Okay.
[14:33] Bill.
[14:34] We want to read that.
[14:36] Okay.
[14:38] Bill.
[14:38] So we amended it.
[14:41] Okay.
[14:41] They proposed them and then bill seconded.
[14:45] Thank you.
[14:46] Okay.
[14:47] And all in favor with the amended framework of the TSA program for 2027 acts.
[14:56] All in favor?
[14:58] Aye.
[15:01] Any opposed?
[15:04] The motion carries. And we have approved the framework of the 2027 TSSSA program
[15:14] as presented. Okay, the next item is item 5.2, board member term limits and officer elections.
[15:24] Our next item is Board Member, Term Limits and Election of Board Officers, Board Members
[15:31] have received the bylaws and the report from Colin on roles and terms as we have add
[15:46] from the CVHM.
[15:48] yeah from the earliest game 2013 and that's our Founder Choke and then and then
[16:00] dating through August 2026 and then there's a couple of terms that end the
[16:09] following year or in 2030 with our newest member Dr. John Harrison.
[16:17] So I'd like to
[16:19] open the floor for discussion regarding the board member term limits.
[16:29] We have
[16:29] any discussion so as it stands there's no specific limit to the amount of
[16:36] years that you can serve on the board but each term is four years that
[16:43] correct? Sorry I don't have a look. Yes. Each term is four years but if you serve
[16:51] in a leadership role either treasurer, vice-chair, or chair, the terms are two
[17:00] years and there's a restriction on the chair to serve only two terms total. So
[17:07] total of four years as chair. Is everyone understand that? That was their
[17:12] understanding after reading bylaws?
[17:17] Are there any comments regarding the term
[17:21] limits or is there any thoughts about wanting to amend the bylaws based on
[17:28] the current term limits?
[17:37] Okay so I think we have to start with the election of
[17:43] the board chair, and are there any nominations for chair of the Success Academy Board of Trustees?
[18:01] Jody, who all is eligible to be chair based on the by-law?
[18:11] I believe everyone is available to service chair other than perhaps your self-check.
[18:21] just I was told by someone else that you had already served two terms, but we cannot find documentation on that.
[18:28] I don't know if I did or not, that was too many years ago.
[18:32] Yeah.
[18:34] I know I was the first chairman in 2015 but I don't think we went more than just a two-year term at the beginning.
[18:45] I think we switched out quite often.
[18:52] Um, do I hear you self-nominating for a second term truck?
[18:58] No, but I won't reject the nomination house.
[19:06] My only concern is that we don't have a record.
[19:13] And we are being targeted as a board.
[19:16] and if someone else found a record or investigated and found a record, I just
[19:25] wouldn't want to put us in a bad position with that. That's my only thoughts.
[19:32] Well, who told you that I served two terms? Michael of course, because I asked
[19:38] that you might go have the documentation.
[19:43] I don't know, but the only of it's the
[19:47] that early is. Michael's been was on for 10 years. I've been on for 20, what?
[19:56] From the beginning. 23 years. And I don't believe I was, I don't
[20:03] think I was chairman while he was on the board. Chuck, what I saw so far, what
[20:10] I've looked at, I saw you in 2013. And then I saw that Stephen Allen took over, I
[20:16] think it was in 2015. Yeah. Is that what you think? Yeah. And then I think I think Ron
[20:25] Reber took over. Did Ron? Well maybe Ron didn't. He tried to avoid all kinds of
[20:32] units and stuff.
[20:37] I don't know. I don't know. But if we do we have the minutes to go back that far?
[20:43] I've been checking them, reading them all.
[20:48] Well, I'm fine.
[20:50] I don't need to be chairman.
[20:57] I'm happy to continue.
[20:59] That's what the board would like to do.
[21:02] I have been knee deep in everything in the last nine months.
[21:08] I'm happy to continue with that if there's no other nominations.
[21:15] Yeah, I will nominate Jody to continue as the chair.
[21:20] I was going to suggest the same thing.
[21:23] Jody, I appreciate you saying that just given where we are as a board and some of the things that we're currently facing.
[21:33] The continuity, I think, would be a really good thing for us.
[21:39] Thank you.
[21:40] Yes, Willie.
[21:42] Is that a second?
[21:43] I will second the nomination.
[21:46] Bill, please.
[21:47] First.
[21:48] Dave.
[21:49] Are there any other nominations?
[21:52] I think we have to know that before we move forward.
[22:00] Is that a no?
[22:03] I'm hearing no additional nominations for Chair.
[22:07] The nominations are closed.
[22:10] And the nominations are myself.
[22:12] Jody Porter.
[22:13] Are there any discussion regarding myself as nominee?
[22:19] other than what's been stated.
[22:24] Sorry, I think I did the first and the second two early.
[22:27] So now we need a motion. Let's see, it has been moved and seconded to appoint myself.
[22:34] We have a motion seconded. You nominated.
[22:37] We nominated. Correct. Okay. Thank you. Is there a motion to move to name myself chair as the success
[22:57] I think the first one was myself as a nominee and the second motion is to appoint me as chair. Oh, gotcha. Because there are no other candidates. There's no other nominees. Correct.
[23:10] Okay. Okay. I would move to approval.
[23:15] Jody Porter as the chair of the Success Academy Board of Trustees.
[23:23] Thanks, Bill. Is there a second?
[23:28] I'll second. Yeah.
[23:30] Thank you. It has been moved and seconded to appoint Jody Porter as chair on favor of the
[23:38] say hi. Hi. Hi. Hi. Any opposed?
[23:46] The motion carries. Jody Porter is the
[23:49] appointed chair of this accessory academy board of trustees. Okay.
[23:55] Oh, yes. Yes. I apologize. When we were discussing TSSA I wasn't in a place
[24:05] where I could speak. We just had a new grand baby born so I apologize for being late.
[24:13] Great. Thank you very much. But with the TSSA plans it's my understanding that the board
[24:19] approves the framework and then my June 30th each year approves each individual schools TSSA plans.
[24:29] I think that we need that we have to do that every year.
[24:33] thank you Sherry thank you Sherry and we don't have the plans as of today so do
[24:43] we need a vote to move the plan to October well
[24:51] the plan well the specific
[24:54] budget items that's correct I don't I don't have those ready for tonight the
[24:59] plan is going to be executed according to that framework but as far as the
[25:03] specific line items. I would need to get that for the October meeting.
[25:13] Can we move forward on a plan based on that framework and you're just going to
[25:18] report on what the prior results were. Is that correct? Yes. That's not part of
[25:26] the plan that you're going to present in October. It's the results of last
[25:30] year's plan. Can I provide additional detail on different budget
[25:35] expenditures for those different parts of the framework.
[25:40] So I've moved that we move the approval of each school specific TSSA plans to October,
[25:50] and then I work to meet the guideline of June 30th from here forward.
[25:57] I think he's sharing. That's helpful. I will second that.
[26:08] All in favor. Say aye.
[26:13] I. I. I. So share. I have a little discussion.
[26:17] Discussion. Sorry. We have a discussion.
[26:20] What's the difference between what we're doing now?
[26:24] I don't understand.
[26:25] the two motions. So the TSA plan, first it's money that's allocated, that schools can use,
[26:37] the directly impact student learning. The board needs to approve of a framework. For example,
[26:43] it could be something like student safety, student academic support, and maybe, you know,
[26:51] other a third framework idea so those are the big pieces that each school can
[26:59] utilize that money for and then each school's specific TSA plan is how they're
[27:04] going to spend that money in each of those areas of the framework that the
[27:09] boards approved. Right and so what we did originally was we approved the framework
[27:17] or teacher providing tutoring, counseling, tutors, summer school programs, and after school programs.
[27:24] And that was the original motion.
[27:26] And we moved to approve those, that framework.
[27:30] Correct.
[27:31] And now you're saying you want to, your motion is to move to October to get what?
[27:39] to get each individual, each individual school means to have a plan of almost a budget of sorts,
[27:47] of how they're going to spend that money in each of those bucket areas that you just mentioned.
[27:53] And I thought that's what Colin said he was going to do. Do we need to have a motion for him to do that?
[28:02] I think he has to. And that plans. Go ahead, Joey.
[28:07] So I just think he has to present that plan and that money allocation to the board for us to approve it.
[28:14] Right.
[28:15] Sure.
[28:17] That's correct.
[28:19] Okay.
[28:20] And you just wanted to have a formalized motion to tell Colin that he has to do that by approval.
[28:28] That's correct.
[28:29] and then also just to get us on that schedule where we need to approve each
[28:35] school's TSA plan by June 30th of each year from here on out since we're out
[28:43] of compliance yeah it makes sense so we didn't approve it in June like we are
[28:49] opposed to that what we're saying correct now I'm understanding because that's
[28:56] statutory requirement and so I just want to make sure that I'm hearing correctly that we're we're
[29:03] now not in compliance. We're now wanting to vote on something that we've already missed the
[29:11] statutory. I want to try to make sure that we're working to the next student 30 at 27. We're not approving
[29:20] something. I just want to make sure that we're within the the specific limits here. I just want
[29:29] to so that I'm trying to understand make sure where where we need to be. The deadline for the
[29:36] fiscal year 27. TSSA framework is today. So after this I'm going to upload the minutes to show that.
[29:46] So that's the deadline for the board to approve the framework is today.
[29:51] And the framework, and I just want to make sure I understand the framework
[29:57] typically includes a detailed school plan.
[30:00] And budget allocates. Correct. We would, we would usually be seeing that. Or is there a new
[30:06] to you talk, I'm just trying to figure out, is that, is that a way it operates? Just, just
[30:12] want to get, get some clarity. That's great, great comment. Yeah. Let's see. It's my understanding
[30:22] that each year, the board must approve each individual school's SSA plans because the
[30:29] The allocation can change year to year while the framework remains the same.
[30:36] Yeah, that's correct.
[30:37] Yeah.
[30:38] That's my understanding as well.
[30:39] I was checking the deadline for that.
[30:42] And to prove it, I thought I got approved now.
[30:45] We will be seeing it now to meet the deadlines.
[30:49] And that's all my question is about.
[30:52] Now, I'm trying to throw a parable up.
[30:54] Just making sure that we're meeting where we need to be.
[30:58] Now this is, and I'm going to try to make the screen bigger here.
[31:02] This is,
[31:09] see how I can make this bigger here.
[31:10] So this is our TSSA grant right now.
[31:16] So you can see that we have, the amount is here, let's see if I can,
[31:26] it's not sharing it
[31:28] correctly.
[31:29] Let's see.
[31:39] Just a minute, I'm just trying to get into showing the screen.
[31:43] So a collided tux point, we've already approved the fraud framework, right?
[31:51] Yes.
[31:52] Okay.
[31:53] All right.
[31:54] But where are we to John's point?
[31:57] Where are we out of our not in compliance?
[32:00] Did we miss something we were supposed to do in June?
[32:06] I understand.
[32:08] Oh, I'm sorry.
[32:08] Go ahead, Sherry.
[32:09] No, go ahead, Colin.
[32:10] No.
[32:11] What I saw in the grant reminders and looking at the grant system was today,
[32:14] was a deadline to approve the framework. I didn't see the June deadline. So that's where I'm
[32:20] Sherry. Can you help me with that?
[32:25] Absolutely. Colin, what I'll do is I will put you in touch with
[32:30] with a person in our district that that monitors those deadlines and dates so that we can make sure
[32:37] that that gets where it needs to be.
[32:43] But it's my understanding and I could be wrong that
[32:47] that it needs to be approved by June 30th.
[32:51] And I apologize if I am wrong,
[32:53] that could very well be,
[32:55] but that's my understanding.
[32:57] But I think sharing is which budget needs
[33:01] to be approved by June 30th?
[33:03] Like, June 30th's budget for 2028
[33:07] could be approved by next June, right?
[33:11] Or so I'm a little confused
[33:15] because if we received money in 2026, fiscal 2026,
[33:23] it had to have been approved prior to that.
[33:28] And now we're doing the approval process for 2027.
[33:35] Surely that has to be done before June.
[33:39] Right, and the way that we do that in our district
[33:42] is around February and then in May for that exact reason but again I want to
[33:50] make sure I'm not the expert in our district on that so I would want to get
[33:55] those dates and just make sure those are available and I apologize but I believe
[34:02] what we have to do is approve the money that's going to be spent for that
[34:07] next year, um, by June 30th. So schools get their allocation. Uh, they write the plan that fits
[34:14] within the framework, and then the board must approve that plan in order for schools to spend
[34:20] that money for this, this school year. My concern is is that there was, there was, there was an
[34:29] And in simulation that we were out of compliance, because we missed a vote in that year.
[34:40] Correct. That's my understanding.
[34:43] Where do you get the understanding from?
[34:46] From the way that we do that with our school board meetings and when we have our schools submit for that so that we could make that due 30th deadline is my understanding.
[34:57] but if we did 2025 or sometime in the 2026 before June, if our board has approved
[35:08] that then we were not out of compliance, right?
[35:12] So I think I have, I might have an answer for us.
[35:16] So the TSA, TSA has a, has a cure period.
[35:23] My understanding is having a cure period of 30 days.
[35:25] So we're likely to get a notice that we didn't submit, if we didn't submit our stop by
[35:33] June 30th, we're likely to get a notice. However, we have a 30-day period to submit a approved
[35:38] plan and board motion to state. So we're within a cure period if we didn't, if we didn't do
[35:45] what we needed to do for full compliance without penalty. So, all I'm saying is that on the
[35:54] submit the the lights are by today, right? The framework, yes. That was an
[36:03] notification. We may have missed a vote, but we're within the period, but we're
[36:11] not out of compliance.
[36:16] We're under such a tight microscope, guys, that we got
[36:21] What I figured out, do we need a special session to, in the next week, to get the plans approved?
[36:33] I need to check with the, I'm trying right now as we're talking to go look at last year's
[36:38] board minutes right now to see if, when the, if and when the TSA was approved.
[36:45] The budget is going to be for fiscal 26, for, for 27, correct?
[36:54] Does it say anything you're logged in here called about like a notification or you know
[37:00] like in the monitoring section is there anything we're at saying like a review or the only
[37:07] the only thing I received was that the framework was due for this board meeting and that's
[37:13] what I worked towards we had the board meeting scheduled for this day so that was that that's
[37:18] That's the notification I received on a water treatment.
[37:22] Okay, and do you see any previous ones for the plans to be submitted?
[37:27] To
[37:39] spend some time looking through it.
[37:41] I don't see any under attachments, is there just another one there?
[37:44] No.
[37:51] You can see that we have been being paid.
[37:58] On the stakes?
[37:59] Yeah.
[38:00] So the money's been coming through on that.
[38:08] I apologize.
[38:09] I need to do some research on this.
[38:14] Maybe if you have that contact, maybe if Colin can act on that ASAP, and if we need to come in for another meeting this week to do any further action,
[38:33] I'm okay with that.
[38:35] I'd be happy to put that all in touch with her and our BA as well.
[38:42] and
[38:49] if this is cast summary of you by gate, says you were late, applications three.
[38:57] I don't think we're out of compliance. We may be in the...
[39:06] Grace period?
[39:07] Grace period, but we're not out of compliance.
[39:11] because we're receiving them. The I think the vote for 2026 had to happen by
[39:17] June. I don't see anything at least from what I'm looking at that said we had
[39:25] to have something right here as a due date of June 26. What's this?
[39:34] Where's he
[39:34] looking? Oh sorry check I don't see where you're looking. That line right there
[39:39] says there's a due date is June 17th, 2026. Oh, sorry, that's August. It's just I can't get it any bigger.
[39:46] Oh, is that a name? Yeah. So that's today. Yeah, yeah. And the action that's required today for
[39:53] that due date is the approval of the framework.
[39:58] Okay. Well, I think we can probably move on. I
[40:04] I don't want us to criticize ourselves and say that we're out of compliance if we're
[40:11] not out of compliance.
[40:13] Right.
[40:15] Yeah.
[40:15] I think maybe Colin, just the follow up with the specialist to help guide you through
[40:22] and access it.
[40:23] I don't see anything that is like flagging us for being late at this point, but if we do need
[40:30] special session to approve anything earlier than the 30th. If you'll just
[40:35] let us know that would be helpful. I will. Okay. I guess you have a motion. We need to vote on
[40:42] Jordan. Yeah. All those in favor say aye. Aye. Any opposed? In the motion carries to put the October
[40:57] or date plan for the TSA unless we have further information sooner in regards to any action needed before that time.
[41:13] Does anyone want to correct me on that language? I'm happy too.
[41:18] If we're good, we'll just move on.
[41:20] Okay. Moving on to the election of the vice chair.
[41:24] We will now move to the election of the vice chair I will open the floor for nominations for vice chair of the Success Academy Board of Trustees.
[41:36] Does Megan want to continue? That was my questions.
[41:41] I think that she's okay continuing if there's no other nominees.
[41:47] But I think she does have a lot in her plate with running for the school board this moment.
[41:54] for the IAM County school board.
[42:00] So if there was an enthusiastic person that wanted to
[42:06] service vice chair, I don't think she would help playing. That was my understanding.
[42:12] My argument was going to be much the same as the argument I made for you, Joe. Given where
[42:18] we are, the continuity in leadership I think would serve as well.
[42:22] Was
[42:26] that a nomination?
[42:29] I moved to nominate Megan Rouse as the vice chair of
[42:35] Success Academy or Justice Megan Rouse.
[42:41] Is there a second? I don't need a second
[42:44] for nomination. Oh sorry for nominations. Okay are there any other nominations? I'd
[42:49] to nominate two people. One, I would like to nominate Sheri Stevenson as vice
[42:59] chair giving that she has a lot of institutional knowledge with school
[43:07] districts and experience in Utah, working in school districts and litigation and
[43:17] processes and compliance that I think might be useful and she might have the time to do that.
[43:28] I'd also like to nominate Dr. John Harrison for similar reasons
[43:36] in that he has had experience with litigation and institutional experience in that area.
[43:47] And
[43:51] those are my teen nominees.
[43:55] Do those two accept the nominations?
[44:01] I think while I'm extremely flatter, thank you so much.
[44:06] I think that might be difficult with my current position
[44:09] and wouldn't want that to appear that, you know,
[44:16] I was looking for one way or the other.
[44:20] So I'll go ahead and define that nomination.
[44:23] Thank you so much, though. Thank you, Sherry.
[44:27] I am open to serving if Megan isn't.
[44:32] I have communicated that I have only been here since morning.
[44:37] So I am still getting my feet under me as far as many, many, many, many changes
[44:44] you'll be seeing in the College of Education.
[44:46] I'm going to invent that Megan is not able, I would support us for Jay and he might
[44:59] Alright, cut.
[45:01] Thank you, John. I'm given that Megan is not here. I think we have to postpone that vote until October and listing our two nominees, Megan and John. Is that correct?
[45:27] I don't know that we can postpone it any longer. We were supposed to do this in June.
[45:35] Okay. I don't think we can vote her in without her here.
[45:43] That's my understanding. Is that true?
[45:45] That's all she'd have to at least accept the win.
[45:48] She'd have to accept the win.
[45:50] You go have her at least, but yeah.
[45:52] Well, that's why I asked Jody whether she was winning the serve again.
[45:57] Yeah, let me text her and see.
[46:03] I do I do understand Bill's perspective too. Given that there seems to be a lot going on, I am not, I'm not fully aware of what else but I won't stop you at the community that does make sense as well.
[46:23] Let me just text and see if I can answer any of the two.
[46:41] Let's see here, back on that, in the
[46:49] view of time,
[46:53] maybe we can move on to the treasure.
[46:55] And then come back if I have an answer.
[46:58] Does that work for everyone?
[47:00] Yeah.
[47:00] Okay.
[47:01] Election of the treasure will now move to the election of the treasure
[47:06] of the board, the board treasurer. I will open the floor for nominations for treasurer
[47:11] of the Success Academy Board of Trustees.
[47:15] I nominate Dave to continue as the treasurer.
[47:30] Are there any other nominations? Oh, do you accept that nomination, Dave?
[47:35] Yes, I would accept that nomination to continue.
[47:38] Thank you. Are there any other nominees for treasure?
[47:48] Okay. Is there any discussion regarding
[47:52] this nominee?
[48:04] Okay. Then, um, is there a motion to, sorry,
[48:16] I'm talking to Megan on
[48:18] is there a motion to, so there's a nominee?
[48:21] Is there a motion to approve Dave Ephardt
[48:25] as Treasurer of Board of Trustees?
[48:30] I'll make a motion to approve.
[48:36] Thank you, John, is there a second?
[48:39] I would second that.
[48:40] Bill.
[48:42] Thank you, Bill.
[48:43] All in favor, say aye.
[48:45] Aye.
[48:46] Aye.
[48:48] Jordi, I hate this real money in the water.
[48:52] Yeah.
[48:53] but if I look at the chart that you're presently presenting. Yes. Both you and
[49:00] Dave's term ends in August of this year as a board member. I think all of our
[49:08] terms and in August as a board member, so we have to go back and because... No, that's not true.
[49:15] You're yours, and in August of 2026.
[49:21] Okay.
[49:22] That is correct.
[49:24] Yeah.
[49:24] And so, so if we're going to have you as chairman,
[49:27] we probably need to approve your free employment.
[49:31] The continuation of the board term.
[49:33] Yeah.
[49:34] Yeah.
[49:35] Okay.
[49:35] We can do that next.
[49:37] Also, I heard back from Megan, and she said,
[49:40] I can do it if no one else wants to.
[49:41] Why
[49:46] don't we let her, if she will, I'll support her.
[49:50] I will train, I will be available to help living forward if there's an increase.
[50:03] Okay, sorry, where are we right now?
[50:05] Okay, so we still have two nominations then or vice chair?
[50:12] Or did John just reject John with the nominations?
[50:15] Oh, okay.
[50:17] Sorry, I'm out, I'm out.
[50:18] Listen, I'll answer wherever I'm needed, but I do do to Bill's point, I do understand
[50:28] where that's coming from, and I part of me says that continuity is quite helpful.
[50:35] Just to say, I don't have the background, I don't have the background knowledge, context,
[50:41] and I think there's some haven't been through this kind of thing before, whatever kind of thing is going on,
[50:47] when there's a location to say to have that continuity is helpful. Keep
[50:53] people from the same things or you know if they you're stepping in it if you
[50:59] will. I'm not nobody may have but I you know Megan is looking into if we can
[51:07] vote her in without her here unless anyone knows the answer to that. I've been
[51:14] reading the bylaws. I don't see anything that says we cannot do that. Okay. Give
[51:24] me one second.
[51:25] She's responding.
[51:28] I'll say we'd like to vote you in.
[51:41] Was I able to finish the treasure?
[51:45] Did we all vote David as treasure? As long as we vote David as an additional term.
[51:52] all right thank you can we get um yes thank you Chuck do we have a second to
[51:59] vote Davin as an additional term and is there any women's well here towards my
[52:05] other muddy water it is not on our agenda to do that are we beyond ourselves by
[52:12] not having now on the agenda we have it term limits and board roles so we did
[52:19] actually good for that.
[52:21] Well, it's good.
[52:22] And we also have Sherry.
[52:24] No, Sherry is 2027.
[52:27] OK.
[52:28] Just the two of you.
[52:29] Just make stuff and they OK.
[52:31] So we have a second.
[52:33] All in favor say aye.
[52:35] No.
[52:35] We have a second.
[52:36] We're going to be voting on the extension.
[52:38] I don't think we've got a clear motion.
[52:40] No for Dave I think or we are.
[52:42] The extension of the term for Dave to continue.
[52:50] So, can we do one motion to extend the terms of both Jody and Dave, maybe they may need to be separate motions.
[53:01] Okay, that's helpful.
[53:04] So, I'm sorry, who was the second to extend the term limit for Dave to continue two more years or four more years?
[53:16] It's a four-year term isn't it, or more years?
[53:23] Yes.
[53:24] I make a motion to extend this term for four additional years or the bottles.
[53:31] John here.
[53:32] And I will second that.
[53:33] Bill, all in favor say aye.
[53:38] Aye.
[53:40] Okay.
[53:40] The motion has been approved.
[53:42] extended four years. Extend another term limits ending in 2030 to Dave Everhart
[53:52] to continue on the board.
[53:55] I guess 2030. I guess it's August 20, 30.
[54:00] Can I make a motion then to also extend to the quarter's term for four years to
[54:10] August 2030 per the bylaws thank you John second all
[54:20] second of motion thank you
[54:22] Dave all in favor say aye aye it has been approved to extend the term limit or
[54:30] Jody Porter to August 2030 per the bylaws thank you all now we're back to we
[54:43] We approved the treasure.
[54:46] John should approve and be all seconded.
[54:49] Did we vote on it?
[54:50] They did, so now.
[54:53] So, Jody.
[54:54] Oh, I see.
[54:55] You can make a message.
[54:58] Jody.
[54:59] Yes.
[55:00] So we have a motion to approve Dave as the treasure.
[55:07] And it's seconded.
[55:09] We don't have a record of a vote.
[55:11] discussion. So let's do a vote all in favor of Dave Everhart serving as treasure for the
[55:24] success Academy Board of Trustees all in favor say aye. It is approved that Dave Everhart
[55:33] is serving as the treasurer of the board of trustees
[55:38] toward treasurer or to a year term is treasurer.
[55:47] So, next let's move on to vice chair
[55:50] and make him believe that we can vote her in
[55:52] and she is happy to continue in that role.
[55:57] We have a motion to...
[56:00] Before we continue, thank you.
[56:02] or even on, we need to also have an all opposed state name.
[56:07] Oh, all opposed state name, thank you.
[56:09] All opposed state name,
[56:14] it has been approved, all right.
[56:20] Okay, so we have a nomination, a Megan, we need a vote for Megan,
[56:32] nomination for the vote voting motion to approve she can hop on yes she's
[56:44] going to join I think so maybe she can officially accept the nomination.
[56:59] Colin do you have a link real quick you could text her I
[57:05] can try and find it
[57:06] But you might be faster.
[57:08] Sorry, we're running over, guys.
[57:11] You're going to have to get back out a little bit.
[57:12] Will it close if you go out?
[57:15] Yeah, it will.
[57:15] Okay.
[57:16] Oh, it's back on.
[57:17] Yes, I can send her a link, Joey.
[57:20] Okay.
[57:20] Thank you.
[57:35] So we're looking for begin to approve her nomination or to accept her nomination and then a
[57:43] nomination
[57:45] or a motion
[57:53] to appoint her as a vice chair.
[57:57] I
[58:04] mean she's here. Yay! And again,
[58:10] again you've been nominated as Vice Chair of the Board of
[58:14] Success Academy Trustees. Can you accept the nomination?
[58:22] You might be on me.
[58:29] I think it's
[58:30] muted still. Can you
[58:38] hear us, Megan?
[58:51] We can see you but we can't hear you.
[59:00] Can you give us a thumbs-up
[59:01] If you accept our nomination without work,
[59:08] or put it in the chat,
[59:16] maybe she has to rejoin.
[59:21] I'm sorry guys.
[59:46] Can I read her text if she can accept over text?
[1:00:00] Um, usually the bylaws and Robert's rules, they allow for any clear consent, including text or chat. Okay.
[1:00:32] I'm here.
[1:00:33] Would you like to accept your nomination
[1:00:35] for Vice Chair of Success Academy Board of Trustees?
[1:00:39] Sure.
[1:00:41] OK.
[1:00:42] We entertain a motion to appoint Megan Rouse as president,
[1:00:48] or sorry, as Vice Chair of the Success Academy Board
[1:00:52] of Trustees.
[1:00:56] I will make that motion to appoint Megan Rouse
[1:00:58] of the Vice Chair of the Success Academy Board of Trustees
[1:01:02] for another two years.
[1:01:03] Thank you, Bill. Is there a second?
[1:01:08] I would second the most shall make making rounds for my chair.
[1:01:13] The success can be poor.
[1:01:16] Thank you, John. All in favor say aye.
[1:01:20] Aye. Any opposed, say nay.
[1:01:26] Emotion carries to appoint Megan Ralph's as vice chair of this
[1:01:39] Okay, thinking the votes have been reported and confirmation of officers or the record
[1:01:48] of the board officers are now Chair, Jody Porter, Vice Chair, Megan Ralphs and Treasurer
[1:01:54] gave a heart.
[1:01:56] Congratulations and thank you all for your willingness to serve in these roles.
[1:02:00] Is there any additional board discussion regarding officers or board member term limits?
[1:02:04] So
[1:02:10] I believe we clarified and made the extension of our board terms for myself and
[1:02:17] gave for an additional four-year term ending in 2030 and we have successfully voted and
[1:02:25] approved the executive roles.

[1:02:46] I'm Megan. Okay, we're now to the executive session portion of the agenda.
[1:02:53] The purpose of this proposed executive session is to discuss depending our reasonably imminent litigation.
[1:03:00] Before we enter into executive session, we need emotion.
[1:03:04] Is
[1:03:09] there a need to do this today?
[1:03:12] It's just an update.
[1:03:14] Okay.
[1:03:15] In that case, I move that we move into executive session for the Success Academy Board Meeting,
[1:03:24] being held August 17th, 2026 at Success Academy, both on the SOU campus and the UT campus,
[1:03:32] as well as by what platform are we on Google Meet.
[1:03:42] Thank you, Bill. Is there a second?
[1:03:53] I'm sorry. Did you state what it was for?
[1:03:56] I see you broke up a little bit.
[1:03:59] Thank you, Chuck. I did not. Let me rephrase my motion.
[1:04:04] I move that. We move into executive session to discuss pending
[1:04:10] or reasonably imminent litigation.
[1:04:12] This meeting is being held at SUU success on both the SUU and UT campuses as well as we will meet and today is August 17th, 2026.
