So I put in an ePAR for the supply 151 00:10:25,680 --> 00:10:32,000 money, but I need to figure out how to pay that TSSA money, how the best way to go about that is, 152 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,820 but I wanted to bring that up for everybody to know so that when there's a big chunk 153 00:10:36,820 --> 00:10:42,100 of change it's like oh okay well that's where that went. There's been a couple of things 154 00:10:42,100 --> 00:10:49,960 as I've gone through the budget that I have found to be not missing but making sure 155 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:57,380 that that legislative law those funds are being put into the right account and being used 156 00:10:57,380 --> 00:11:01,520 for the right things. One thing that I just noticed, I think it was today, was the safety, 157 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:08,600 was yesterday. The safety specialist, that's a $3,000 amount of money and typically that goes to 158 00:11:10,180 --> 00:11:16,060 typically there's a amount that goes to materials and amount to a teacher as a stipend to be the 159 00:11:16,060 --> 00:11:22,820 school specialist. And we were they did that a lot so that teachers were getting additional stipends 160 00:11:22,820 --> 00:11:29,140 so that they weren't having to go get second jobs. So that's something that I need to be 161 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:37,160 looking at Alisa, it is Clements, is our new accountor, accountor, accountor. 162 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,640 It was like that didn't sound right. 163 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:46,960 And I met her this morning and she has a fantastic charter school background. 164 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,120 So I was like, oh, good, we're gonna be friends. 165 00:11:50,780 --> 00:11:53,760 So just as I've been kind of looking through some of these things, 166 00:11:54,020 --> 00:11:58,100 I think her and I are just gonna get along very well. 167 00:11:58,100 --> 00:12:04,580 And I think we're able to probably pick up on some things that hadn't been done, okay, good 168 00:12:04,580 --> 00:12:11,480 So we'll maybe report out on what you've discovered in our next report. Yeah, I think it'd be great. I am 169 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:19,820 Julie, good question. Yes, so when every say like it's not coming to us is that I'm from USBE or is it okay? 170 00:12:20,140 --> 00:12:25,920 It's yeah, I don't know who's coming to me. We were stayed and they're not getting to the charter academy directly or if it's 171 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,880 It's purely just like not coming to use the EE as far as- 172 00:12:29,500 --> 00:12:36,020 So the safety one specifically, you have to ask for a reimbursement, and that hasn't been done yet. 173 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:41,840 And so we need to figure out what do we need safety-wise in terms of safety material. 174 00:12:41,980 --> 00:12:48,520 We need to look at the newest law that was done six days ago and see what that requires. 175 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:55,560 And then whatever is left, one of the things we did, Sherry was like, I was telling her about 176 00:12:55,560 --> 00:13:00,600 our one little guy put his front teeth through his lip and then I was like we need 177 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:06,400 a we need an ice machine so we got rugs for the front foyer so they're not 178 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:12,620 tripping and falling and then ice because ice is magical if you didn't know and so 179 00:13:13,300 --> 00:13:17,260 those were some safety things just right there but as I was thinking about the law 180 00:13:17,260 --> 00:13:21,580 I'm thinking do we need any like gloss on the windows I'm not for sure what 181 00:13:21,580 --> 00:13:27,620 that looks like where our school is within the building so that's something so 182 00:13:27,620 --> 00:13:33,220 that money has not come to us yet. And so you're going to sleuth it down. I'm 183 00:13:33,220 --> 00:13:40,960 going to with Alicia, probably Alicia, Alisa, Alisa and see if we can make sure 184 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,480 we're getting the funding that we need to make sure that it's all going in the 185 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:49,320 right buckets and that the teachers are getting what's because the other one 186 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:56,220 was the educator or salary adjustment but that one was paid out okay so but I 187 00:13:56,220 --> 00:13:58,540 just had to let go and then double check because some of those things hadn't 188 00:13:58,540 --> 00:14:03,260 been okay good I'm glad you've got your eyes on that with with Sherry so that's 189 00:14:03,260 --> 00:14:08,240 great anything else regarding the budget yes for right the chair recognizes 190 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:24,380 So budgeted expenditures of $4.65 and current expenditures of $246K. How close do you think we're going to be by the end of the year to that $4.65? 191 00:14:25,300 --> 00:14:28,640 When you're looking at that to that $4.65. 192 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:40,830 to me, I feel like I, yeah, we'll be way under that. What you're really looking at at 193 00:14:40,830 --> 00:14:46,630 this point of the year is salaries. And like, if you look up here, salaries were 57% and 194 00:14:46,630 --> 00:14:50,710 the benefits were 64, which is I was looking at that. I was like, oh, I know I'm hiring 195 00:14:50,710 --> 00:14:57,730 a second teacher. That might be a little thing of like, look at the benefits. But so what, 196 00:14:58,730 --> 00:14:59,970 233 of that. 197 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:09,640 So we saw 115,000 there, and have on that one. So I think we'll definitely come under budget. 198 00:15:13,510 --> 00:15:31,650 Which would be kind of, I mean, I know I came in mid-year, but that would be my hope, too, is that. I mean, I know that I came in with a massive carryover. And so let's carry that over as long as humanly possible. Yeah. Any other comments on? 199 00:15:31,650 --> 00:15:33,950 the budget okay 200 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:43,200 we would like I'd like a motion for someone to approve the 201 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:50,280 budget. I motion to approve the budget Paul twice in one minute I know it's made 202 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:57,160 a motion to approve the budget. Do we have a second Roy Kwan is second on approval of 203 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:04,020 the budget. Thank you, gentlemen. Appreciate that. Next is Honour Agenda is the 204 00:16:04,020 --> 00:16:08,140 School Executive Director update. So I'll turn the time over to you. I'll just 205 00:16:08,140 --> 00:16:15,480 keep on going.

They just can't, right? 238 00:18:53,100 --> 00:18:57,780 That was the same class. That was a different class. Oh, I'm sorry. And the 31-20 students, what 239 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:02,500 What class is that? I think that Cheryl's class. Is it Cheryl's?

Can you teach about it? It was like 253 00:19:35,100 --> 00:19:40,160 absolutely. So that was really cool because it was a lot of the curriculums that 254 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:45,120 I've seen as a teacher and that have been around forever but I could also 255 00:19:45,120 --> 00:19:51,120 speak to ones that are that are well-used and known school-wide versus also 256 00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:57,780 special-led social skill wise.

So I'm trying to post a picture sometimes 309 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,600 daily. I haven't been too great about it lately but just to increase the 310 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:57,440 algorithms so that people are seeing it and clicking on it. Yeah. 311 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,560 Just look at the on the enrollment. What's our goal again? 312 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:06,080 22. 22 total in each. 313 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:22,860 Yeah, and I thought if I you know it seems to be that we're getting kindergartners, but if we continue to get kindergartners we could do a kindergarten for split and then have two classes. 314 00:24:23,540 --> 00:24:25,800 What quantity would you split that up? 315 00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:34,700 Our 11 are pretty much, I would love to get more than 11, but I feel like it might be 316 00:24:34,700 --> 00:24:39,940 kind of hard because if a kid has already started their, their schooling in kindergarten, 317 00:24:40,620 --> 00:24:44,240 now you'll see their parents pulling them out unless there's like a problem or something, 318 00:24:45,120 --> 00:24:50,420 my hope would be that we could retain kids year to year, and just kind of keep that, that 319 00:24:50,420 --> 00:24:50,820 cycle. 320 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,540 So, how can the board help with the marketing? 321 00:24:54,840 --> 00:25:08,780 If I could put it out anywhere, if I could send you the digital flyer, just put it on your own Facebook pages, follow our Facebook page, just get it out there as much as you can. 322 00:25:09,180 --> 00:25:13,540 I mean, that's been the best way. I mean, I don't think that... 323 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:19,380 What was the other thing that we did that I was like oh that didn't really oh we put it 324 00:25:19,380 --> 00:25:20,080 around campus. 325 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:30,980 I don't know if we got a whole lot of parents from campus like it was a lot of it's really 326 00:25:30,980 --> 00:25:31,840 been the word of now. 327 00:25:31,980 --> 00:25:35,260 I think I think getting it out to kind of this word of mouth. 328 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:42,100 So maybe send us the digital flyer to the board members and we can post it on our social 329 00:25:42,100 --> 00:25:47,980 media that can help at all. Absolutely. Or if you know of any place, the children's 330 00:25:47,980 --> 00:25:54,220 church house museum, post one up there, I can get you a physical copy. Right. Anybody 331 00:25:54,220 --> 00:26:00,620 know any other areas? Let me know. Do we have an open house? I was thinking about that of 332 00:26:00,620 --> 00:26:06,060 like of maybe doing an open house. I wish I kind of would have thought of it earlier 333 00:26:06,060 --> 00:26:10,680 before all of the charter school enrollments, but I was kind of thinking maybe 334 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:15,720 end of April first part in May because there's still those parents you know 335 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:21,320 that are like either undecided or aren't thinking about school yet or you know 336 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:26,760 I just put the new one on the list just the whole spot yeah I told Julie I'm 337 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,680 like I'd never panic because in August it seems like there's that little 338 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:38,320 parents oh I forgot to register my child so we still have time are you taking 339 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:46,880 kindergarten half day. Yeah. You have to offer it. Okay. And a lot of them have shows to do the 340 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:53,380 full day. Half day. Half day. Yeah. But it seems like maybe you can hear what you're in Salt Lake. 341 00:26:53,380 --> 00:27:01,300 They're probably all full day. But it seems like you get kids in half day and they don't do as well. 342 00:27:01,740 --> 00:27:07,840 And then the teachers are saying, well, your kiddos a little bit behind. And then they start full day 343 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,380 and you just see this burst of growth. 344 00:27:10,060 --> 00:27:12,940 So I've been told, or the child themselves asked. 345 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:13,740 Yes, yes. 346 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:15,300 I'd say two, and I'm like three as a kid, 347 00:27:15,460 --> 00:27:17,240 so I don't want to go home with my friends. 348 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:17,920 I still hear. 349 00:27:18,220 --> 00:27:20,780 Our kids that started half day at first 350 00:27:20,780 --> 00:27:23,120 in the year have all been in a full day, so yeah. 351 00:27:24,260 --> 00:27:25,620 My own child did that. 352 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,120 Yeah, it's pretty common, so. 353 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:29,360 What does that mean? 354 00:27:29,780 --> 00:27:31,120 How much was it for your home? 355 00:27:31,260 --> 00:27:32,860 It's the current percentage of our current kid 356 00:27:32,860 --> 00:27:33,460 in our class. 357 00:27:33,700 --> 00:27:34,580 That's half-take-old there. 358 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,000 It's all 100% full day now. 359 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:41,920 We had two students that started at half-day and they have both moved on to the full day. Yeah 360 00:27:46,780 --> 00:27:49,960 Hey human resources looking for a second-grade teacher 361 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:51,800 Um, that job 362 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,140 And did I say second grade? 363 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,380 I saw second good 364 00:28:03,460 --> 00:28:07,180 So when I looked yesterday, I think that there was nine applicants 365 00:28:08,220 --> 00:28:23,060 I know I was a little nervous because we don't pay necessarily as much as the districts around here, but from everything that I, everyone I talked to was like you're not up here for the money. 366 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,560 It's the benefit, like it's just a great place to be. 367 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:34,380 So, but I talked with another teacher in a neighboring district and she said that there 368 00:28:34,380 --> 00:28:38,480 was 29 displaced teachers and nine open positions. 369 00:28:41,020 --> 00:28:48,000 So I was like, okay, well maybe that won't be so hard to fill, but so I'll start looking 370 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,880 at applications tomorrow and then we'll have our hiring committee. 371 00:28:52,300 --> 00:28:59,420 another big piece of mind this month was trust lands. Just going to do kind of a 372 00:28:59,420 --> 00:29:06,640 quick rundown on what trust lands are. We have our our elected council which is 373 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:13,480 made up of parents and a teacher. I think well kind of too because Alicia sits 374 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:19,680 on in there too but and they're kind of more of the decision making body but you 375 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,200 you guys are the approving body. 376 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:27,080 So when we write the trust land plan in a school district, 377 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,580 the schools would all write their own individual plan 378 00:29:29,580 --> 00:29:31,640 and they submitted to the district for approval. 379 00:29:32,180 --> 00:29:35,040 So our school would submit it to you for approval. 380 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,420 And I ran across this today 381 00:29:41,420 --> 00:29:42,860 and I thought I needed to throw it in there. 382 00:29:43,300 --> 00:29:46,040 A school's trust land program expenditures 383 00:29:46,540 --> 00:29:49,300 shall have a direct impact on the instruction of students 384 00:29:49,300 --> 00:29:54,800 in the particular school areas of most critical academic need and consistent with academic priorities 385 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:59,840 of the LEA's governing board. So, there was some things like last year that I was like, oh! 386 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:29,900 That probably shouldn't fall under trust lens. So I don't know if I wanted to just be careful of that. Part of what trust lens is, is there's a timeline and the state has a broken down by like charter school governing board, elected board, schools, districts, principals, directors. So there's all, you know, a pretty sequential timeline for everybody. But right beginning of the year, we're going to, you know, start off. Let me back up at this point. 387 00:30:29,900 --> 00:30:34,400 at the year we're going to be writing our plan for next year. Right now all the schools are 388 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:40,440 submitting their final reports. We don't have a final report because we didn't have a plan 389 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:46,760 last year and we would also be looking at carryover. Did we spend everything that we said we were 390 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:55,200 going to spend if we have carryover more than 10% or $5,000 whichever is greater. We need to be 391 00:30:55,200 --> 00:31:02,460 looking at that amend our plan, but we were at $73 in the 80s. So, 18 before us. 392 00:31:04,740 --> 00:31:10,080 And then so between now and then I'll work with the elected council to write the next year's plan. 393 00:31:10,540 --> 00:31:14,300 So I just want to do, I just wanted to bring attention to due dates because it's kind of a 394 00:31:14,300 --> 00:31:21,640 tight window between when that the community council will meet and when the governing board will meet. 395 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:28,840 So I just wanted to make sure everybody was aware that I think it was originally planned 396 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,700 for April 10th, which gives a little bit more of a window, but I can't remember why 397 00:31:32,700 --> 00:31:34,400 it had to change for some reason. 398 00:31:36,340 --> 00:31:39,740 And then by May 1st, that plan is due to UBSBD. 399 00:31:40,700 --> 00:31:46,860 And if you're interested, here's a whole bunch of training resources, yeah, any questions 400 00:31:46,860 --> 00:31:47,240 on that? 401 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:54,380 We, as a governing board, we won't need to do any of the trainings if we're not required. 402 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,980 You don't need to do it. No, you don't need to do those. I feel like this is probably 403 00:31:58,980 --> 00:32:06,480 sufficient. All right. But there's always, there is a training video for charter schools from 404 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:13,720 USBE. That is pretty good. It's like 53 minutes long, I think, but it was pretty good. So, Laura, 405 00:32:13,860 --> 00:32:17,820 do you want to add to anything? Sure. We did link that in the required 406 00:32:17,820 --> 00:32:22,380 your trainings that overview of the school lunches that it does, like Lindsay mentioned, 407 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,860 give a bit overview of the school lunches program in its history. 408 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:29,340 Yeah, history is kind of interesting. 409 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:30,460 Yeah, it is. 410 00:32:31,620 --> 00:32:33,600 So what's the interval of phase three? 411 00:32:34,060 --> 00:32:35,300 The main resource? 412 00:32:35,660 --> 00:32:36,200 The video? 413 00:32:36,580 --> 00:32:37,520 Is that number three? 414 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:38,080 Okay. 415 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:40,420 That's probably your best go here. 416 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:41,080 Okay. 417 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,540 The other things are, like, if you wanted to look at that governing board or what that timeline looks 418 00:32:45,540 --> 00:32:47,040 like, if that's in there. 419 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:57,720 They just had a lot of good training resources, which, if you're interested in it, I think I find it fascinating, but I'm kind of a weirdo. 420 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:11,880 I sent my mom a picture of me watching the USB-E board meeting. I was like, this is what I do for fun. It's like you're crazy. I know. 421 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:13,760 I've got an extra puppy in my hand. 422 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:14,880 I don't need it. 423 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:21,220 I can feel it. I watched a weekly commission and a lever kind of commission. 424 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,480 Oh, I would like one of the easy panels. 425 00:33:23,860 --> 00:33:24,980 I would have that as an interest. 426 00:33:25,140 --> 00:33:26,160 I just wanted to do something. 427 00:33:27,140 --> 00:33:28,220 There are things that I need. 428 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,260 I didn't make that see at my other job. 429 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,760 We were doing all that stuff all the time. 430 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,840 And I was like, oh, I found my spirit personally. 431 00:33:39,820 --> 00:33:45,800 Okay, next part is our second reading of the school fee and spending plan. 432 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:53,960 This one, if you remember, we're required to inform parents of whatever school fees 433 00:33:53,960 --> 00:34:00,020 that we ask them in elementary school. 434 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,520 Again, we don't typically ask for fees. 435 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:09,160 If we have in the like I did at one school and it was more for it was for girls on the 436 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:17,440 run more of an after school thing but the other part of this policy is that we have 437 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:22,860 of some type of a system that we have a fee waiver so it's equitable for all kids and the 438 00:34:22,860 --> 00:34:27,740 other pieces parent transparency so that they can see like what we're asking where that 439 00:34:27,740 --> 00:34:33,920 money is going and that we have a plan of how we're going to spend that. So, look, they 440 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:38,860 will be able to read through that. Do you have any questions? Laura, do you have anything 441 00:34:38,860 --> 00:34:39,320 to add? 442 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:47,380 I have a question. You have one section highlighted in red. Oh, yes. I love that. 443 00:34:47,460 --> 00:34:53,340 Was there a reason? Yeah, I love that section. Actually, Laura had that in red and I was like, 444 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:57,840 oh, I'm so glad she did that because that's one of my favorite sections. I always, whenever 445 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:04,400 I had a school supply donation list that's always on it so that it's just a 446 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:08,180 notice to parents that whatever they're giving is being used throughout the 447 00:35:08,180 --> 00:35:13,560 day and that they don't have to bring something but donations are welcome. 448 00:35:14,580 --> 00:35:18,980 I was curious if that directly applied to the school uniforms directly underneath it 449 00:35:18,980 --> 00:35:26,160 or if it was just a general heading for this is just kind of general wording that 450 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:32,580 I don't, again, I put it on all of my donation list just because I don't know if it's even 451 00:35:32,580 --> 00:35:36,580 required, but it's just good practice to do. 452 00:35:37,260 --> 00:35:43,080 It's required by USB for all requests that go out for donations so that parents may 453 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:48,220 know that whether they donate or not the supplies or the donation is requested, their student 454 00:35:48,220 --> 00:35:49,660 would be covered. 455 00:35:52,910 --> 00:35:56,470 I don't, Laura do you want to talk about the school uniform policy? 456 00:35:57,370 --> 00:35:59,710 I think it's more of a Utah code. 457 00:36:00,370 --> 00:36:05,710 Yeah, the template of this school fee policy itself is a template from USB that were required 458 00:36:05,710 --> 00:36:06,390 to utilize. 459 00:36:07,090 --> 00:36:13,950 So we don't have, right now, the church have these not required to do this school uniform. 460 00:36:14,610 --> 00:36:17,210 We're just addressing it because it's in the Utah code right there. 461 00:36:18,270 --> 00:36:18,710 A 462 00:36:24,660 --> 00:36:31,520 lot of this came from public voices, over-secondary fees. 463 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:36,200 Okay. 464 00:36:37,820 --> 00:36:40,220 All right, we need to take a vote on that, correct Laura? 465 00:36:41,300 --> 00:36:41,440 Yes. 466 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:46,240 So that means I ask for a motion, and that's when you perk up. 467 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:52,480 You sit up in your seat and you decide if you're going to jump in and make that motion to approve the... 468 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:59,800 We were state university charter academy school year 27 school fee and spend plan. Do we have a 469 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:08,900 motion to approve? I like the motion just to be I'm not sure which I'm sitting with my back 470 00:37:08,900 --> 00:37:12,720 straight up. Kelly Boos. 471 00:37:15,340 --> 00:37:19,560 Kelly Boos made a motion to approve the school fee and spend plan. Do we have a 472 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:29,760 second second and motion passed motion passed but we've got to take a vote all in 473 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:38,480 favor say aye aye any nays okay just gonna say don't look at me next time I'm not 474 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:47,680 the chair no I'm just thinking but unfortunately I fixated on you okay so next 475 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,180 the reporting violations of rule of law. 476 00:37:50,420 --> 00:37:56,580 Yeah, so this is that policy that states that we need to put something on our website that 477 00:37:56,580 --> 00:38:03,540 tells parents how they can file a complaint if it was against one of us as board members, 478 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:13,220 or probably even out of the school too. And it just talks about the different procedures that go 479 00:38:13,220 --> 00:38:20,640 into that and the the steps that as a school we would take and how we would refer it I think it 480 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:26,880 refers to Ellie or to the USBE and then they they push it back to us as for investigation and 481 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:33,620 we have so many days to refer back and report what was found. 482 00:38:39,900 --> 00:38:42,180 Explains how to report fraud ways to 483 00:38:42,180 --> 00:38:50,660 use of more non-compliance, basically just gives them a place to complain to, which I don't 484 00:38:50,660 --> 00:38:58,080 I think that that is a great thing especially in a board like this that we have steps to outline 485 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:03,140 that I mean it's always better to follow a policy when you have a complaint like that than it is 486 00:39:03,140 --> 00:39:12,040 to just kind of go by the senior panel. So yeah, questions on that. This one was one of our trainings 487 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:24,040 that we had to listen to because they kept talking numbers and I'm like, I am so, I'm 488 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:29,860 not going to remember all the numbers I know, but the train yet, that was a bit of a train 489 00:39:29,860 --> 00:39:30,560 I didn't know that. 490 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:31,700 Okay, 491 00:39:34,330 --> 00:39:35,970 this is another voting item. 492 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:44,500 So do we have a motion to approve the reporting violations of rule and law? 493 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:51,840 You make the motion. Roy Kwan to approve. 494 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:59,240 He goes outside his lane so much. 495 00:40:02,900 --> 00:40:09,600 Do we have a second? Sherry Walker second on that any discussion at all. 496 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:18,760 Thank you. Appreciate that. Next on our agenda item is Board Business. And it's 497 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:23,320 usually thinking this is a demo row. Oh yes thank you for keeping me on track Laura. 498 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:31,180 Can we take a vote? All the favorites say aye. Aye. Those opposed? It stands approved. 499 00:40:31,180 --> 00:40:40,860 majority, eyes. Okay the board business we have we need to create an audit 500 00:40:40,860 --> 00:40:49,980 committee and Lara I may just have you jump in at this point because we need a 501 00:40:49,980 --> 00:40:54,540 one-board member to sit on the audit committee plus we also need a community 502 00:40:54,540 --> 00:40:59,120 member that's not part of the audit committee. Can you give us a little bit of 503 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:03,020 information on the responsibilities of that subcommittee? 504 00:41:03,720 --> 00:41:04,340 Sure. 505 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:04,920 Thank you. 506 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:15,060 By U.S.P.E., each school has needs to have an audit committee and those audit committee 507 00:41:15,060 --> 00:41:20,220 members are posted on the website and the outline for the make-up of the committee would 508 00:41:20,220 --> 00:41:28,820 be a one or two board members and then that equals 50% of the committee and in the other 50 509 00:41:28,820 --> 00:41:35,700 need to be community members and or it could be it just can't be administration or employees. 510 00:41:36,340 --> 00:41:41,460 So we have state and correct, right? The agility of the falls to community members and or 511 00:41:41,460 --> 00:41:49,740 parents actually need to be 50% more. So we're looking for one board member and that would be we 512 00:41:49,740 --> 00:41:55,540 would need two community member or parents to be the other two board members of the audit committee. 513 00:41:55,540 --> 00:41:58,340 the audit committee serves the government board. 514 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:03,760 And the main responsibilities in a traditional charter academy 515 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:07,480 would be that the audit committee would select an outside auditing firm 516 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:12,100 to come in to audit the charter academy finances year-eight. 517 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:17,260 They would also report out on those finances at the end of the year audit. 518 00:42:18,060 --> 00:42:23,540 Because we were states, because we, the charter academy's finances 519 00:42:23,540 --> 00:42:26,900 is fall in under Weaver State University. 520 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:31,140 The audit committee will not, at least this is what we've 521 00:42:31,140 --> 00:42:34,420 talked to a bell in the last six months 522 00:42:34,420 --> 00:42:35,880 about having the to-runness. 523 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:41,240 The audit committee would meet with the bells department 524 00:42:41,660 --> 00:42:46,220 and they're audit and serve and understand 525 00:42:46,940 --> 00:42:52,260 that commit that responsibility through Weaver State University 526 00:42:52,260 --> 00:42:59,820 as opposed in their outside auditing firm, as opposed to calling and selecting additional 527 00:42:59,820 --> 00:43:06,180 audit firm. Does that make sense? Because the charter academy's funds do fund the charter 528 00:43:06,180 --> 00:43:11,060 academy, but they are underneath the Weber State University finance. 529 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:19,600 So what you're saying, Laura, is that these two, these individuals, the one board member 530 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:25,500 and the two community members, they may attend the meetings, one to two meetings annually, 531 00:43:25,740 --> 00:43:33,360 but the bulk of the work is done by Weber State. They're just figure heads, correct? They'll 532 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:34,160 meet with, 533 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:40,780 I think if I'm reading the minds around this table, which I can do so well, 534 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:43,680 there's how much work is involved in this. 535 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:47,880 Yes, it would be one to two virtual meetings, 536 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,700 or one to meetings with the business department, 537 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,860 one to have the business department 538 00:43:55,860 --> 00:43:57,380 kind of outlined, just outlined, 539 00:43:57,780 --> 00:44:02,740 and then two to review the Weaver State University Audit. 540 00:44:02,940 --> 00:44:04,800 I don't know what I wish it could include 541 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,140 the charter academy, that's part of it. 542 00:44:07,140 --> 00:44:09,020 But there'd be a lot of handholding 543 00:44:09,020 --> 00:44:10,540 in this auditing process. 544 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:12,720 Somebody doesn't need an agreement. 545 00:44:12,720 --> 00:44:15,300 You don't need an accounting degree. 546 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:21,600 We talked to Fermi that it wasn't in fact an outside audit of the finances, it just wasn't 547 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:25,680 directly with the charter campaigns, we were State University. 548 00:44:26,300 --> 00:44:26,420 Okay. 549 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:31,840 We talked about getting a student and then somebody felt broke their ankle and forgot about it. 550 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,940 But that was still, I think I loved that I did. 551 00:44:36,940 --> 00:44:42,360 and that's yeah I mean I don't know educational finance class or even the 552 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:50,620 economics college so if we can so you and I will work on the two but we need 553 00:44:50,620 --> 00:44:55,340 somebody from the governing board correct Laura? Yes you need one member of the 554 00:44:55,340 --> 00:44:59,720 governing board to be on that canary. Do we have anyone that might be interested in 555 00:44:59,720 --> 00:44:59,980 We're doing... 556 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:28,280 You know, I've been through all the training. I'm happy to serve. The audit committee also handles financial complaints. That's really one of their main duties as well. If the complaint comes from the public, they're supposed to take it. It has to be independent of the school. So, is that a yes, Kelly? Yes, I'll have you. I'm happy to do it. Oh, Kelly, you've made my nine. You don't know how through a lie. 557 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:35,080 Yeah. So we just went through it and went, wait, this is a new, a new law with you as 558 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:39,980 a dean. So I'll be training and all that. I've already been through it. Okay. And she 559 00:45:39,980 --> 00:45:49,660 is. And you wasted, I understand. 100%. That's what, that's what I want you to think.
