move motions 91 and 92 second one point of clarity in case any's wondering if you look at the long chart of add a district approvals there's two under buron County Special Services that are listed under steam student ID number that is correct we list it that way because they send us two separate contracts for the same student one for the tuition Services the other for the at County Fe so we approve it in that manner okay any questions go ahead same cont yes's esy the one's esy yes one they sent they s the contract for esy and a contract for so we um because we don't have the DraStic need to hire an IND District Physical Therapist we contract with Northern Region Ed services for a physical therapist much we have for the last 20 something not to it's tied to a large group of students we don't list their iders any other [Music] questions 9.2 that it's just so exciting to see uh these curricular um this the curriculum that this new curriculum that's going to be implemented um in this upcoming school year from things like choir cooking um Sports journalism stem clay building it's I think these this is all so enriching I'm so happy to see and mean know I've heard feedback from parents that they'd love to see some kind of kind of extracurricular programs for students and um I just think this is wonderful so I just wanted to say how excited I am to see this agree that but I'd like to add it's just not extracurricular it has it's tied to student standards and it's all like has all the backup of a regular course right these are full-fledged curriculums tied to state standards and I have to really push all the credit for these to the teachers every one of these was authored by one of our teaching staff we reviewed them as the administration obviously but every one of these was from day one designed and then authored by our teaching staff it's really amazing to see the this the initiative and the care for the students to to you know see that through not that went into it thanks for the correction be the only one I think it's very um the groundbreaking but now I took a call from South Jersey actually about some of these and how we were working it with our um demographic of student number of students so um a South diry District found it through just Google search but they were curious about it's not a common no there's no further questions or comments can get Miss Greco Miss Hussein yes Miss Marcus yes Miss Spencer yes Mr storms yes Miss Wilson Mr Carell yes moving on to 10 a second M Wilson I second any questions or comments on 10.1 10.10 so on the bills list I saw that we were making a final payment for the U Capital that we started and years ago B service but yet we won't get that money from the town till July and SP out July and January so it's kind of like we pay it out then we get paid back right okay so the taxpayer won't see the impact till the final impact till next January probably Jan yeah January okay all right just because it's one of the things I'm trying to come to grips with is our our calendars don't always match know District calendar so that's sometimes that was the confusion between that um the overage underage you know the tax issue we on two different calendars we're on an academic calendar they're on they're on a regular calendar so ours goes from July to you June theirs is from you know January to December okay so even though we're making the final payment now the taxpayer won't see the impact the file impact sh yeah okay thank you for that Clarity right any other further questions or comments no uh we get a roll call then miss greo yeah Miss Hussein Miss Marcus yes Miss Spencer yes Mr storms yes Miss Wilson Mr carabello yes all right moving on to Theon reports mrco the one item that I wanted to share was the distri looking policy for the day other districts wi where stud as well as would not be allowed to have their cell phones out and used during the instructional um and what they talking about is um not so much coming up with the policy but using their code and conduct that they currently have and they really want to try to discourage kids and staff from using their phones because parent come there are some classes that do however I math classes exp us thats to I guess Rel should hear more about it the next meeting but that's the only instruction is still Ono over there
