00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:19.600
>> Yes. >> You would take that away. >> Yes. Very good. So, um, just first would like to acknowledge, uh, my helper on this trip was Miss Kirsten Hoffman. So, that was a wonderful thing and amazing that she went with. And our three participants who are here today are

5
00:01:19.600 --> 00:01:36.159
Maddie Olsen, Madison Jordan, and Libby Samson. So, um, we took off on April 7th and, uh, our first, uh, day out. Go ahead. Um, we actually had a very early morning. It was amazing. Everybody was here at 6:45. Hopped on the bus. And

6
00:01:36.159 --> 00:01:52.079
thank you to our Cannon Falls Schools bus drivers for picking us up at the butt crack of dawn and bringing us back at the butt crack of midnight, which was amazing. Like, that was unbelievable that they did that for us. But I uh gave them all clear directions that from here

7
00:01:52.079 --> 00:02:07.200
on out you go everywhere in duos or trios even to the bathroom which some genders are not used to that but like that is something please do that cuz from here on out it's all about safety. It's all about making sure everybody comes back healthy. So go ahead. Uh our

8
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:23.360
first day there uh was uh pretty um we got off the plane. We went from the airport right to the mall and we went through the uh national um American History Museum and uh those are some of the photos that people took away. Of

9
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:39.680
course, the big kind of focal point is the Star Spangled Bander, the actual one that inspired Francis Scott Key. Of course, there's a series of pictures there and the one that kind of kept showing up over and over again was Hamilton's uh suit from the Broadway Broadway musical Hamilton. But um I was

10
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:54.160
a big fan of Burton Ernie myself, so that was kind of cool. Um go ahead. And then uh we ended up going to the National Museum of Natural History after that. A lot of different things there. Um everything from gemstones to of

11
00:02:54.160 --> 00:03:10.400
course uh the taxiderermy elephant and some uh fossils and things like that. And the mummy was also one that was kind of fascinating for some students. So go ahead. And then uh we took the scrape picked and I sent that out to social media. So that was our kind of first,

12
00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:26.080
okay, we're here, we're set, and now we're going to go. Um we ended up that night uh if you want to move forward going out to the veterans different veterans memorials. There's a women's veterans memorial, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, the Korean um Veterans

13
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:43.200
Memorial, which was really um inspiring and the great etchings or whatever on the granite and all that. So go ahead. And then that that right near there of course is uh where the National Mall is uh the reflecting pool and the Lincoln Memorial and a lot of kids talked about

14
00:03:43.200 --> 00:03:59.200
that they um talked about that like just it was a beautiful night. The week before it had been in the '9s and we were just so grateful. It was in the 50s. So So yeah. Go ahead. So day two we got up uh early went to our hotel day and I learned about Door Dash by the

15
00:03:59.200 --> 00:04:16.160
way. Um I'm sorry I didn't invent that. That is a really the amount of Door Dash that came in and out was incredible that first night. But so we went to uh the Mount Vernon the next day. Um of course that's um George Washington's home and just lots of amazing things to see

16
00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:33.280
there. Not to mention the estate and some of the things in the museum, but if you go to the next page, one of the things that a lot of these plantations are doing is starting to talk about the fact that slavery is the reason that a lot of that exists. And so there ended up being some really uh great spaces to

17
00:04:33.280 --> 00:04:50.800
um kind of ponder that. One of which is there's a new burial ground where they've uncovered 80 um up to 80 bodies or whatever of slaves that were buried there. So and we had some conversations about that. They were learning about that in that corner picture there. So >> if you keep moving on um was our like

18
00:04:50.800 --> 00:05:05.520
gem of a picture or whatever looked like we were getting blessed by a comet or something like that. The sun was brilliant. It was amazing and it was just uh that was a really really good day and a lot of students talked about that what an fascinating place. So go ahead and move on to the next. And this

19
00:05:05.520 --> 00:05:21.199
was our after going to Mount Vernon, we went to Arlington National Cemetery and just I was so impressed at the respect that student showed especially at the lane of the wreath. Um that uh ended up being such a really good like moment of

20
00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:37.360
what whenever it's busy you're going through but just to reset kind of and just see that whole ceremony was just kind of incredible. I think students appreciated that too. So, go ahead. And then we got a couple of really great photos out of that. Um, that was our only cherry blossom picture we could get

21
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:52.800
in the in the trees there. Uh, they were almost all done. It was the cherry blossom festival that way that week, but the 90° and the 20° had really wre havoc with the cherry blossom. So, that was a really good good picture. And then they take us to a place outside of DC where

22
00:05:52.800 --> 00:06:07.360
there is this uh Capitol Wheel. It's called the Ferris wheel. And a lot of students talked about what like what a good moment that was. And of course they went around did a little shopping and things like that too. So day three was the national archives and this is where

23
00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:25.199
I will say it was a gem of the day on multiple levels. Uh one you could really see our students curiosity and interest about what they had been studying and they were lingering at the documents. They were like just uh pausing. Uh the

24
00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:40.560
picture in the corner I just want to give you that little nugget. If you ever get a chance to go to the National Archives, that guy that I'm talking to right there, the security guard, gave me the nugget that the famous painting of Thomas Jefferson handing John Hancock the Declaration of Independence. Looks

25
00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:56.479
like there's a cloud behind behind Jefferson. It's not a cloud. It's actually uh Lincoln's face and it's his side profile or whatever. Uh the artist actually wanted to pay homage to Lincoln. And so you can see his bearded chin kind of on the bottom, his lip and

26
00:06:56.479 --> 00:07:11.440
his nose or whatever. And that was actually paid in homage or whatever to to Lincoln for his sacrifice. Um, but that ended up being such a good experience at the archives just to see them. Curious about that. So if you go on to the next one, >> I'll send you the picture so you can

27
00:07:11.440 --> 00:07:29.680
ponder if you want. Um, this is the capital and this too. I again the students were just curious and looking around and taking pictures and intent on listening and taking that all in. And on the next picture uh this is

28
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:46.080
the national uh or the Library of Congress. And this is where a couple of us was talking to Matt Olsen about in particular. This is where I had a moment because that library that you're looking at on those shelves kind of around kind of the circle, that's Thomas Jefferson's original library that he donated to the

29
00:07:46.080 --> 00:08:02.960
Library of Congress to get the Library of Congress restarted after, of course, it was burnt uh in the War of 1812 or whatever. So, those are all his books and that was kind of an amazing thing. But what ended up coming out of that was the after that the next slide. So again,

30
00:08:02.960 --> 00:08:20.000
um Kirsten Hoffman kind of uh laughed about me always talking to people and like if I didn't know what the nugget is, but the gentleman in the middle there and maybe some of you remember Tony Meyer um former teacher. He looks a lot like Tony Meyer. Um he actually uh

31
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:35.680
asked if we had a group and and I said, "Yeah." And he goes, "How big is it?" And okay, let's set this thing up. And he did this for us. and our tour director said they never do things like this. So, he ended up going through a whole thing about some statues up on the

32
00:08:35.680 --> 00:08:53.360
top. And then, um, Maddie, if you wouldn't mind just for a moment to talk about what what did he what did he ask you to do? What did he ask you to kind of say and speak to? >> Um, well, there were two statues of two men. One of them was like younger and

33
00:08:53.360 --> 00:09:08.959
older. So he asked me, you know, which one looked younger, which one looked older, and what they were doing, and they were both like reading something. And then the difference was the older man had a Laurel reef on his head, >> which is basically what Olympic victors

34
00:09:08.959 --> 00:09:25.120
would learn in ancient Greece when they won. >> Yeah. >> And so his whole message was kind of like reading basically leads to achievement. >> And then he gave me my own moral leaf. >> Yeah. Yeah. And it ended up just being such a good thing. And he talked about

35
00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:39.760
how >> lifelong learning, lifelong readers like that is where you become the best parts of yourselves or whatever. But he also cautioned and not rest on your laurels because shouldn't rest on our achievements. We should continue to

36
00:09:39.760 --> 00:09:56.880
strive or whatever. So go ahead and move on to the next one. This is Jamestown in Williamsburg. We had some laring opportunities where people could do a little live action roleplay there and dress up. So you see William there in the middle and then that's one of the people who are and a couple of students

37
00:09:56.880 --> 00:10:12.240
talk about that this is a thing that they appreciated so much is these people who are there to kind of demonstrate and show you that's a furniture maker. They make all their own furniture in Williamsburg and it's kind of an amazing thing. So if you go on to the next one, this is what for a lot of our students

38
00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:28.079
was actually a really really good day. So, we ended up getting a tour of Williamsburg. And that guy dressed up there in those amazing tights, >> uh, came walking down the street like he owned it. >> And Lucas Olsen, who's standing in the blue shirt back there, had the good

39
00:10:28.079 --> 00:10:42.720
sense enough to actually ask him, "Hello, sir, who are you?" And I he went into a whole thing. That's Patrick Henry. He was there to tell them about uh becoming free and was very confused

40
00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:58.240
because I think he was curious why you two were unaccompanied. Yeah. Didn't have a betrothed a brother. Why are two women walking around by themselves unattended kind of thing. But some guy comes running across the street, pulls

41
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:14.079
him away, and two minutes later, he comes running out of a building to announce that Virginia has voted to declare itself free from the Empire. And so it ended up, we ended up interrupting that, disrupting that. But I said to Lucas, "Good job. That's what you're supposed to do when you come to this

42
00:11:14.079 --> 00:11:30.560
place. Ask these people questions." And that ended up being a good thing. So, moving on to the next one. Uh, this is just some of the whatever random moments. Uh, curiously, our bus was the 67 bus, so we couldn't get away from that

43
00:11:30.560 --> 00:11:46.399
craziness. And we just wanted to give a shout out to Kia and Reggie who all the students were so great and so respectful uh to them and so appreciative of them and validating uh who they are and what they do and we were taken such good care

44
00:11:46.399 --> 00:12:02.320
of by then them. And then the next uh slide is just some comments, but I'm going to let um Madison, do you want to just make a quick comment about a favorite part or favorite thing? >> Um we went on a ghost tour that was um really fun, even though the stories

45
00:12:02.320 --> 00:12:18.160
might not have been true. They just told a lot of funny or scary stories about ghosts. >> Yeah. >> From the past. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> And Libby, you want to make a comment? >> Oh, yeah. My favorite part was probably the capital because anywhere you looked,

46
00:12:18.160 --> 00:12:33.519
you probably could just find new art somewhere and it was just >> amazing to see. >> Yeah. And I just want to tell you all that this group was such an amazing group that we actually got a special invitation. Um there's a lot of people that don't get to go into the House of

47
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:48.320
Representatives chambers or the Senate any longer. >> And Kia had been holding on to about 50 75 special tickets to get into the House chambers. And so it was empty. Congress was not in session. And because of our

48
00:12:48.320 --> 00:13:04.800
students and their amazing behavior and interest and curiosity and whatever, she decided that we were the group that she wanted to give that little special trip to. So we all got to go in the house chambers. We got to sit and see where all the wars have been declared and all

49
00:13:04.800 --> 00:13:20.880
of the state of the unions were held. They got to see uh and have it pointed out where the bullet hole is in the ceiling because there was a separatist group that came in in the 60s from Puerto Rico that got in Capitol with a gun and actually shot up a couple of uh

50
00:13:20.880 --> 00:13:36.160
desks and things and a couple people got injured, but they wrestled to the ground and the last bullet ended up hitting the ceiling. And I think we all would agree that that was like one of those what just happened to us? What kind of amazing experience did we just have because of that? And it is. It's really

51
00:13:36.160 --> 00:13:52.240
rare. Um, that doesn't happen a lot on EF tours to get into to get into House Chambers. So, that was an amazing uh experience. And so, just kind of in closing, the last thing I just want to speak to and say is that this group of humans

52
00:13:52.240 --> 00:14:08.399
did us proud as a school body. Um the other two school groups uh that were with us uh the par the chaperons commented, "Wow, your kids are amazing and they're curious and they're respectful and they're interested and

53
00:14:08.399 --> 00:14:26.000
and I couldn't have been more pleased at this experience um at and what they brought to that primarily and what Mrs. Hoffman and I can say. It was just such a moment of pride all the work we do here and we're just wondering what

54
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:40.000
happens when you're out in the quote unquote real world if you will >> and uh to know that they brought all their learning, their curiosity, wanted to learn and get more out of that was just an amazing thing to behold. And we

55
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:57.279
both will say that that was probably the best part of it all. like it's great to go do that, but just to see their level of enthusiasm and engagement and all of that was just incredible. So >> awesome. >> It was probably a little more wordy than

56
00:14:57.279 --> 00:15:13.120
maybe what you were planning, but I just wanted to thank again Mrs. Austin for that and thank our students for that and thank the teachers that prepared them >> for that because they were ready to go and ready to learn and that's a great place to be. So,

57
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:28.720
>> and what classes were involved with this? uh AP US history and AP government students were the if they either took it as a a sophomore or they were a junior who took it as a sophomore or they were a senior. So 10, 11th, and 12th grade

58
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:44.160
students and and I've already offered to the new AP government teacher that if they want to run this again, I would be happy to go along and kind of bridge that and but eventually hand over the reigns. EF Tours does a great job. They're an amazing organization and they

59
00:15:44.160 --> 00:16:01.199
uh do themselves uh proud and right with what they offer. But also to thank you to the parents because the the money invested in this is pretty substantial. >> But boy, I think that's going to pay off in dividends. um and maybe sparkled me

60
00:16:01.199 --> 00:16:17.440
being a and interest in all kinds of things with if nothing else just being a good citizen and and being a good human which is what they all did for us on that week. So yeah, it was a great day, great great number of days with them. So

61
00:16:17.440 --> 00:16:32.399
>> but yeah, thank you for letting me share. >> Yeah, thank you. >> Thank you. Any questions for me or >> I was just curious to see if any of one of the students back there um what was your aha moment of what you've learned in the class and all of a sudden you see

62
00:16:32.399 --> 00:16:49.199
it come to life in Washington DC. >> Um definitely the documents like seeing the original constitution >> was just really like >> sural >> amazing. Yeah. >> Yeah. Okay. >> Yeah. Or I'd say Washington's house is pretty cool, too, just to like learn

63
00:16:49.199 --> 00:17:07.360
about him, then get to go like where he was. >> How about you, Maddie? >> Oh, um, I like seeing Williamsburg and James Town because we learn about, you know, Jamestown settlement and stuff. Seeing it in person was really cool.

64
00:17:07.360 --> 00:17:23.520
>> Very good. >> Board members. >> Had anybody else ever been there prior? >> I have. I have. Yeah. >> None of the kids. Students. >> None of the students. >> I've been to DC. >> Oh, you've been to DC. That's right. You have family

65
00:17:23.520 --> 00:17:40.480
>> near there. Somebody had family. >> Yeah. So, you've been to DC? >> No, I'm glad that trip happened. I'm glad we got we get to bring kids over there. There is so much history on the east coast and there's so much so much that just makes you feel very small in the big grand scheme of things. Um, so it's it was it's very cool over there.

66
00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:55.360
Yes. >> Very good. Thank you guys for shephering that. >> Thanks for giving that opportunity to them. Our >> pleasure. Very cool. >> Thank you for the successful trip. >> Yes.

67
00:17:55.360 --> 00:18:17.919
>> Should we do it? >> If that goes viral, we started it. That went everywhere. >> Yeah. All right, we'll move on to public input. Does anyone like to speak to the

68
00:18:17.919 --> 00:18:51.520
board? >> Libby, this is your chance. I don't think so. >> Then I will close public input. We will move on to committee reports. Anyone attend anybody if they have

69
00:18:51.520 --> 00:19:08.720
something to share? >> I went to the GCED meeting. Um, and I think probably the highlight of that meeting was that um, they were they have been awarded a $500,000 grant to help encourage

70
00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:24.559
kids um, down the path of teaching um, to give them opportunities like paid internships and scholarships um, and to like put them into the elementary buildings and have them kind of start working. maybe kids who didn't think they had the opportunity to be a teacher

71
00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:40.880
in life. Um to give these kids that opportunity to encourage them to go down this path and go to college for it, blah blah blah, and then come back home and teach and live and raise families. Um so a nice big grant um for >> 500,000. >> Yeah. 500,000. Yeah. Wow.

72
00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:57.039
>> Yep. Um for uh Good Hume County. Yeah. So amazing for all. >> Yeah. So it's So it's all of us. Yeah. So it's super super amazing. Super awesome. So yeah, I was glad I highlighted that one. >> Is that something students have to apply for or >> So actually it is personnel in the

73
00:19:57.039 --> 00:20:12.880
buildings looking for particular students who might fit into this category. Maybe kids who didn't think that they could make it and go to college in life and stuff like that or didn't think that teaching was their thing or if teachers are maybe seeing somebody who I think this kid would be awesome like they're showing a huge

74
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:29.600
interest in this but maybe they just don't have that person to push them along and help them along and stuff. Um, so, >> so is that something that they applied for? >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, just an amazing opportunity. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Because we need more teachers. >> Yeah. Absolutely. >> And did you say it's 500,000 like in in

75
00:20:29.600 --> 00:20:46.640
one year or is it like a program that >> Good question. I did not hear all quite all the details of it, but Yeah. >> I'm sure it's over time. >> Yeah. Yeah. Um, you know, and obviously teaching tends to be a little bit predominant um, you know, female kind of trait and stuff like that. to help encourage just folks of all backgrounds

76
00:20:46.640 --> 00:21:01.120
and everything like that. So, >> so yeah, >> great opportunity for kids. >> We're just learning about it. >> Yeah. >> Administratively, sure. >> Brand new. Yeah. >> So, we'll have some more information. >> Okay. >> As it rolls out. >> Yeah. >> But yeah, it's pretty exciting.

77
00:21:01.120 --> 00:21:22.240
>> Yeah. Very cool. >> Anyone else? Um, I attended a staff development meeting and it just seems like the year has gone pretty well and everything's going according to what they are trying to do and accomplish and so kudos to all those teachers and staff

78
00:21:22.240 --> 00:21:43.200
with all the changes and education and everything thrown at them. So, >> all right. Anything else? All right, we'll move on to the finance report. Josh, you want to walk us through that? >> So, getting a little bit towards the

79
00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:59.600
shorter end of this as this goes through this the end of the fiscal year, June 30th. But, um, as we get to the June June board meeting, we'll have the full uh next fiscal year's cash flow announces go through, especially as we tie out now the approved after tonight, the initial budget for fiscal 27. Some

80
00:21:59.600 --> 00:22:14.880
of the big things that are still coming up yet in this fiscal year would be uh the end of May, actually now the probably the beginning part of next week, we'll get the first half of um property taxes. Uh so it's just an estimate there. We usually get the actual amount uh the day or two before

81
00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:32.720
it's released to us. Um and then further down the road as you slide down, uh we have the scheduled in energy payment. There's two payments that come into the district totaling around uh 300,000 or so. It's been through the city's portion as an inflationary section. The 210 was

82
00:22:32.720 --> 00:22:47.919
negotiated directly with the school and that's been consistent whereas the payout from the city has a slight inflationary portion. So another 300 about $35,000 coming in at the end of the school year for in energy. Uh, as we've talked since the inception of those dollars, half of it has been

83
00:22:47.919 --> 00:23:05.120
designated to facilities type items uh to help kind of backfill some of the loss or other use of funds for uh other projects to have our capital dollars tied up. Uh, this helped us get some of those projects done. Um, obviously then the second part of the first half of the

84
00:23:05.120 --> 00:23:22.240
payments is there in the first part of June. Uh, then to tell you usually payroll is at the end of the fiscal year. Uh, and be a little bit higher. um they get marked um everything's in that fiscal year, but especially in the teacher contract, they still be paid July 15th, July 30th, August 15th on

85
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:38.880
those dates, but it's booked in fiscal 26. Uh not a whole lot of excitement in there, but if you have anything to ask, I can certainly answer it. >> I see that the secondary roof is in there. Is that kind of >> Yeah, I think go through I think they're still waiting on a final sign off on it.

86
00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:59.840
I know that there are a couple of issues that they need to remedy first, but that's the the whole issue with retaining holding until they're done. So, eventually they're going to want their 28,000. >> There's not any more questions for Josh. I would look for a motion to approve the finance report.

87
00:23:59.840 --> 00:24:15.679
>> I'll make a motion. >> Run, do you have a motion? >> Second. >> Luke on the second. >> Any other discussion? All in favor say I. I >> oppose. Motion carries. Thank you, Josh.

88
00:24:15.679 --> 00:24:32.480
>> Uh, consent agenda. Items under the consent agenda are considered routine and will be enacted under one motion. In the event the board member wants to discuss any item, it will be removed from the consent agenda for separate action. Uh, Jeff, would you like to read the resolution for acceptance of gifts,

89
00:24:32.480 --> 00:24:47.760
please? >> Yes. >> There's a big one in there. >> Yes. Uh the Can Falls Education Foundation donated $350,000 to put toward the elementary playground project, which that is uh uh almost

90
00:24:47.760 --> 00:25:04.720
ready to get started here uh at the beginning of the summer. uh $4,000 from the VFW uh for two $2,000 scholarships, $1,000 from the VFW for senior class party, $2,000 from the Canon Falls Fire

91
00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:19.279
Department Relief Association for two $1,000 scholarships, $500 from the Canon Falls Fire Department Relief Association for senior day or for a senior class party. I'm not sure I why I put day in there.

92
00:25:19.279 --> 00:25:39.440
um $100 uh for merchants bank for choir. So we do thank you for very generous donations. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Then uh Luke, you want to recognize uh we have a both a retirement and a new hireer? >> Yeah, our new hireer um Cooper Peterson

93
00:25:39.440 --> 00:25:56.000
is going to join uh the team here in Canon Falls, which is pretty exciting. Cooper um will be in the middle school, high school as an interventionist and is alumni. Um has lots of family that has either come through the district or still here, which is pretty cool. He had

94
00:25:56.000 --> 00:26:11.440
a chance to talk to him. He's really excited. He um got to experience some uh teaching outside of the district and wanted to come back and maybe in a little different role. So, he's going to um be an interventionist for us, which I think he'll really excel at is he's he's

95
00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:27.840
coached and he's just a good kid and kid um a good person. He'll be a great teacher for us. Um I'm excited for that. Um and then we have a retirement in Kim Howen who has been here for 20 years,

96
00:26:27.840 --> 00:26:45.520
which is pretty exciting for her uh to to get to retire and move on. And just want to thank her for her time. Um, all of us here have jobs and we all know that 20 years at one place just doesn't happen all that often. So, we thank her for for her dedication to Cano Schools.

97
00:26:45.520 --> 00:27:03.360
>> Absolutely. >> Sure. >> All right. Uh, I will look for a motion to approve the consent agenda. >> I'll make motion. >> Join on a motion. >> I'll second. >> Jody on the second. Any other discussion? All in favor say I. I.

98
00:27:03.360 --> 00:27:19.360
opposed. Motion carries. We're going to move on to administrative board reports. Uh Mr. Strauss, anything you'd like to add to your report? >> Just um I didn't put anything in there about, you know, with the end of the

99
00:27:19.360 --> 00:27:35.520
school year, we kind of do a couple walkthroughs of the graduating senior class, which is kind of fun. On their graduation day, Mrs. Hoffman and Josie, the senior class adviserss, actually organized something where the seniors come down to the elementary, walk through the halls. um waving at the kids, giving kids high fives. It's

100
00:27:35.520 --> 00:27:51.679
pretty cool. Pretty cool thing for them. And then the last day of school, we do a fifth grade uh instead of doing like a graduation ceremony or program or anything, we started stuff a few years ago where similar thing fifth graders do a walk through and then they do a walk just outside real quick kind of out the front of the building so parents can see them too and take some pictures on the

101
00:27:51.679 --> 00:28:09.600
last day of school. So those are two things that are coming up as well that are pretty cool moments again for that senior class and the fifth grade class. We should just about reverse and have the fifth grade come up here and do a walk. >> They are tomorrow morning. >> Oh, they are. >> That's good. That's great.

102
00:28:09.600 --> 00:28:25.760
>> Thank you for doing that, too. I've got a fifth grader. She's pretty excited about they're pumped. They're nervous and they're excited all at the same time. >> Between Tim talking with the fifth grade classes because he was he was down in the classrooms too and then our middle school um student council adviser Laura Burby. she's come out and present to

103
00:28:25.760 --> 00:28:41.919
fifth grader as well about you know what student council is and if they want to join and things like that. So it's kind of cool that at the end of the year kind of end of April and then throughout May there's some some of those transitional things happening. I try to get in fifth grade classrooms more too to just ask and answer any questions they have things like that. So

104
00:28:41.919 --> 00:28:58.480
>> it's an exciting time for them. Exciting like you said anxious a little bit too but >> y >> thank you Stephen. Uh Mr. Hodes anything you want to add? Uh just a couple of people I want to recognize. Uh again, Josie and Kristen for all of their work. Uh I know some of

105
00:28:58.480 --> 00:29:15.039
you were able to attend our senior awards and scholarship night last week. Uh there that is an incredible amount of work that they put into that. Um starts in January and uh it's not done yet even the event is finished. So thank you for

106
00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:32.240
to both of them for all their hard work for that. Also want to thank uh Randy and Jolyn and the middle school high school PTO for putting on a field day for us last Friday. Got a little bit warm in the afternoon, but it was a great day. Um so, uh I'm going to say

107
00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:50.399
thank you for all the students who really appreciated the opportunity to have an hour out of class. So, >> all right. Thank you, Tim. Uh Reed, >> yeah, a few things to share with you. I apologize. I didn't get a report submitted. Um, we've made the decision

108
00:29:50.399 --> 00:30:06.720
that we are not hiring a manager for Bomberare for this year. Uh, and said Tammy and I are going to move down to elementary next year. So, we will be offsitting out of 206 uh to help lead and run Palmer care just to make sure

109
00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:21.440
that everything is off and running as it should and we get going. And then as we re-evaluate with you guys in January, if uh everything is going the way we expect and want it to go, then we'll start looking at that uh that manager

110
00:30:21.440 --> 00:30:37.679
position. So, we're starting there. Um, we'll be posting for some more staff here soon as soon as those uh that contract settlement uh with Lori gets uh taken care of. Uh school readiness registrations are up to 61 right now. Uh

111
00:30:37.679 --> 00:30:54.960
we were at 68 last year, so we feel that we're good there. We're on track. Uh of those 61, 41 of those have signed up for bomber care. So good numbers there. Um we are to the point where we're going to start pushing for those families that

112
00:30:54.960 --> 00:31:10.320
are looking for Monday through Friday care to the um you think the afternoon readiness and the morning bomber care just so that we create a little bit more balance between the two programs and and we're supporting so that we're not

113
00:31:10.320 --> 00:31:26.720
really full on one end and less on the other. So that's where we're at now. If we have somebody that's looking for a Monday, Wednesday, Friday, or a Tuesday, Thursday, we'll still be able to sprinkle in whatever their first choice is at this point. Um, we just had our second target date of of May 15th. Our

114
00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:43.360
next target date will be June 15th. Uh, and we'll still expect those registrations to come in throughout uh that summertime as our kids are approaching that age three and potty train. So, there's that part to it. Uh Ken and kids summer care registrations

115
00:31:43.360 --> 00:31:59.120
have been open for 3 weeks and we're already at 117 for that. Uh our last summer number was 182 and we expect to get close to that if not surpass that. So

116
00:31:59.120 --> 00:32:15.519
uh extracurricular committee meeting we'll be hosting uh something I'll be reaching out to you soon to have before the next board meeting. Uh, I need to meet with dance coach, girls tennis and girls golf. Randolph has officially reached out asking to see if we would

117
00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:30.960
have any interest in a cooperative program for both dance and tennis. Uh, so I need to talk with coaches to get their thoughts on that. And I'm also waiting to hear back from the high school league to see if that would put us anywhere near in jeopardy of bumping

118
00:32:30.960 --> 00:32:47.760
us up to class and what that could look like. So, I want to have those answers here before I try to reach out and figure out everybody's schedules and get that squared away. Um, so that'll be coming here shortly. Uh, and the rest of this week and all of next week, uh, we

119
00:32:47.760 --> 00:33:02.880
are going to be crazy busy with postseason play, which are all all good things. So, uh, starting with softball tomorrow. Um, I know we don't normally charge, but it's one of those where we just will put two tables up and it's a

120
00:33:02.880 --> 00:33:19.600
section event and we have to charge admission. $10 for adults, $5 for students. It'll be a cash option. We also have the GoFan. We've already uh sent that out. Um, and all that again, that goes to section. That's not anything that we keep that that's not

121
00:33:19.600 --> 00:33:35.360
our money. We don't just decide at playoff time that, hey, we're going to charge you just because. So it's just part of the section and everything that goes along with that. We do are hosting St. Clair Loyola Manoch Christian Academy area. Uh so it's a big

122
00:33:35.360 --> 00:33:52.720
cooperative. Yes. Um tomorrow single elimination. As soon as we for softball as soon as you advance to Thursday it becomes double. So as long as we win tomorrow we not only do we advance to Thursday but we also advance to Saturday. So Thursday would be the winner between Lassour Henderson and

123
00:33:52.720 --> 00:34:08.320
Medford and Saturday would end up being at Mano. So um baseball we are expecting that one or two maybe three seed get into a buy going out to the following Tuesday. Subsection track is Wednesday

124
00:34:08.320 --> 00:34:25.679
at PEM at Elgen section track the following Tuesday and Thursday at Triton sprinkled in with baseball and softball. golf would be boys golf Tuesday and girls golf Wednesday. And just keep in mind this year for this year, next year

125
00:34:25.679 --> 00:34:41.200
we're now section two for baseball, softball, boys and girls golf. So we're heading west. We don't >> head Rochester. And uh we were talking with Clint earlier. We baseball we don't play Memorial Day like section in section two like section one did which

126
00:34:41.200 --> 00:34:57.760
is you know everybody has different viewpoints on that but there was always really good crowds on Memorial Day. So, >> busy couple weeks, which will be, you know, good things because that means we're still competing. >> Mhm. >> Happy to answer any questions you might

127
00:34:57.760 --> 00:35:12.480
have. >> Have you been getting um some emails with some questions for farmer? >> Yes. >> What are some of your most popular questions that you've been getting? >> Oh, I've got a long email that I'll be addressing tomorrow. >> Most recently? Yeah. Is is there a very popular question that you've been that

128
00:35:12.480 --> 00:35:28.160
you've been getting? uh >> asking, you know, please explain more. Help us understand what it is that we're doing. Why make the change? Why is it so different? And and it's really once I think you're able to understand or

129
00:35:28.160 --> 00:35:44.240
communicate and people are willing to listen to what your reasoning is about this allows us to have more flexibility and add more registrations on that back half. Um, and as as our community hopefully potentially grows with these housing developments, we can grow and

130
00:35:44.240 --> 00:36:01.839
expand along with that. Um, and that I'd say that's been the biggest thing and what that's going to look like. Um, there's also concerns about the staff, who's going to be with our kids. And so once we start explaining that it's it's the canning kids, those that are leading

131
00:36:01.839 --> 00:36:17.599
those staff, those parents that are leading canning kids, not high school kids, but but the the adults that are in the preschool room right now and then are leads in canning kids before school and after school and summer care. Those are the ones the people that are going

132
00:36:17.599 --> 00:36:32.800
to be in bomber care. Our high school kids are going to be in high school during care is 8 to three. So I think once we start talking about that uh and again they're they're hearing that u they become more ac more accepting of that as

133
00:36:32.800 --> 00:36:50.320
well. I also I do think and it's my hope uh it's not going to be so much because of me but once it gets out to public that people know that Tammy and I are moving down there and Tammy it will be boots on the ground right there. Uh just because our our K and kids registration just continue to skyrocket these last

134
00:36:50.320 --> 00:37:06.400
several years. I think I think that'll help everybody with power going forward. >> I think that was a great decision to to have you guys there. I think just more so to see the obstacles and hurdles firsthand, you know, and you can document them. I >> I would have liked to see maybe a way

135
00:37:06.400 --> 00:37:21.680
that >> we can as the year goes on, things are documented or parents can say, "Hey, this worked well. this maybe then just an easy way to so at the end of the year we can look it all back and I know you'll be down there but to look back and say all right well here's the changes because I think we are open to

136
00:37:21.680 --> 00:37:37.280
those things you know to make it work and >> yeah so absolutely >> yeah I think um that evaluation time that we're looking forward to I think will be really important to just have all the information that we can have and really kind of dive in and >> do you plan to communicate that on a broader scale versus individual so with

137
00:37:37.280 --> 00:37:52.560
you and Tammy being I'm sure you're addressing all the emails individually is Once you have a suite of registered or once you feel comfortable how your registration is either closed or it's narrowing to close, do you plan to send that communication out to say the closing part?

138
00:37:52.560 --> 00:38:07.680
>> So when when you are closing registration, do you plan to send a communication out to the families to say, "Hey, Tammy and I will be down here." I think that'd go a long way with a lot of the families versus them individually emailing us and or you independently. Sure. >> I don't know if that's something you can do.

139
00:38:07.680 --> 00:38:23.680
>> Put something up for sure. Uh we will be pushing and talking with both KB and Katie today at our 1:00 meeting. We'll start pushing every Friday now a social media blast just with registrations and trying to link that to >> not just keep that just as our community

140
00:38:23.680 --> 00:38:40.160
ed social media but also linking to the school just to try to reach out. >> Yeah, I think any more like tidbits of like factual information that you could just send out would be Yeah, >> sure. >> Yeah, >> I know we do communicate. Yeah. So that I'm happy to hear that because we do communicate email, direct mailing uh a

141
00:38:40.160 --> 00:38:56.800
lot of communication methods and a lot of people like getting their news and feeds from that snippet on Facebook. >> Sure. >> So a lot of opinions on how we communicate, but I'm happy to hear that because you can direct them to our website and say, "Hey, we emailed you. We put a letter in the mail." And >> yeah, >> um I think the Facebook thing is going

142
00:38:56.800 --> 00:39:11.280
to go a long way. So >> yeah, absolutely. >> Yep. >> Thank you. >> Y Thank you, Reed. Uh Stephen Johnson. >> Well, we got all those fancy projects starting up here uh in a couple weeks,

143
00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:27.920
so stress levels real high on my side of things. Um we got a lot to do this summer in a short amount of time, especially with that new calendar. Um, so not only will we be doing all of our inside stuff, we got the stadium field out back, um, our tennis courts, that

144
00:39:27.920 --> 00:39:44.000
awesome donation from that foundation with the playground, >> um, for our big items. Plus, we, uh, we got awarded the HVAC grant that we went out for, so it was kind of up in the air for a while, but we finally did get the recogn recognizing that we award we got

145
00:39:44.000 --> 00:39:59.920
awarded it. We haven't got it yet. Um, so now I get to start planning how we're going to fit that into the schedule yet, too. So, um, it'll be busy here. >> To be done at a certain time with a grant like >> 3 years was what I remember from the

146
00:39:59.920 --> 00:40:17.359
grant. Um, so you it's a payback system. So, it's the, you know, 50 for 50. So, we spend 50, we get 50 from them. >> Um, so I'm really looking forward to that though cuz we need a good recisioning on our, um, HVAC system. Um, so that'll be nice. Kind of get rid of

147
00:40:17.359 --> 00:40:33.440
some bugs that are in the system. Uh, so yeah, that that's the exciting news I got for you. The um we were awarded that even though we didn't think we were getting it. So >> yeah, awesome. >> Take that. >> And throw graduation on top. >> And throw graduation on top.

148
00:40:33.440 --> 00:40:49.760
>> Hey, this is going to be your second time doing it. >> Got that. >> Said he's got it. >> He's here this year. I I just had a couple questions about the elementary playground. >> Yep. >> Um are we

149
00:40:49.760 --> 00:41:07.280
>> remind me which equipment is coming and going kind of thing. Which which which set are we getting? >> The whole south end is going. So it's like the grayish stuff. >> Okay. >> Um very minimal playground stuff like is on the south end. It's like a big rock climbing wall like a spinny thing.

150
00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:22.400
>> What are we are we like just getting rid of it? Getting rid of it or like When you pull those things out, they break. >> Oh, do they? >> Yeah, that's what I've been told. So, >> we we just when we had our tour, we were outside. We were back there and you could tell that some of the equipment obviously on that end of the building, you could see some of it was older, but

151
00:41:22.400 --> 00:41:38.000
some of it didn't look maybe terrible. >> Trying to create another job for Zeke. AREN'T YOU just pull out? >> I just wasn't sure if we are able to like reuse it if some of it wasn't like >> some of it doesn't come out. They they'll put them up on auction

152
00:41:38.000 --> 00:41:53.839
sometimes, but for the most part, you know, to take the tedious time to rip those things out, you know, they got put together there obviously piece by piece. So >> to take them out piece by piece um in the demo phase of things is just going to cost effectiveness of it. And >> it's been sitting out there for I think

153
00:41:53.839 --> 00:42:10.640
those ones are 15 years old, >> are they? >> So plastic in the elements of Minnesota for 15 years. >> Totally. >> Yeah, >> you can use it, but it's probably not going to last much longer when it gets to the next place. >> That's fair. So, um, but yeah, so with all that construction going on, I just urge the public to be aware of caution

154
00:42:10.640 --> 00:42:26.480
signs. You see caution tape, stay away from it. Please don't go towards it. Um, cuz there it is going to be really busy around here. So, um, both schools, which is uncommon, you know, usually it's one or the other, but we'll be busy outside with both schools. So, >> yeah, especially we have canned kids in the summer.

155
00:42:26.480 --> 00:42:43.520
>> Yep. We got a plan for that. School. Yep. Staying away from everything. Yep. They can stare from a distance. Yes. So, other than that, uh, sprinklers have been on thanks to our dry weather. So, this rain is welcome. We can stay around for a little bit longer.

156
00:42:43.520 --> 00:42:59.200
>> Yeah. >> Green some stuff up around here. >> That's all I got. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> All right. Soups report. >> Yes. Uh besides the agenda items uh with noted information on there, um I just

157
00:42:59.200 --> 00:43:16.000
want to make or tell the board that uh we have been getting emails and I think you guys have been too about the uh third grade class sizes for next year. >> Mhm. and we are monitoring that uh from a number standpoint and we'll be making a decision like we have in the past in

158
00:43:16.000 --> 00:43:31.920
July or August if we need to come to you if we think we need to bring um another section on board we'll certainly bring that in and get that headed up in July or August. >> Sounds good for that >> because right now where are those numbers currently set up? >> They're right on the border of our um

159
00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:48.880
expectation guidelines. >> Was it like 27 27 28? Yeah. >> Yeah. Well, just within the last like three school days, I've had I think a couple changes to that, but yeah, it's right around that 27 >> and our upper number is 28 on the

160
00:43:48.880 --> 00:44:10.160
guidelines. >> Yep. And then um I wanted to let the board know also that I will be gone in June for the board meeting. Uh I will be in Orlando uh in a convention center watching volleyball for a few days. So, and Tim has graciously Oh, you're

161
00:44:10.160 --> 00:44:28.160
not gonna run it. We can we can appoint Reed to run the meeting. Yes. >> Yeah. Reed was appointed the last time I didn't make an admin meeting and he ran it in like 10 minutes. >> All done. >> So, um, >> you don't want to zoom in? I thought we

162
00:44:28.160 --> 00:44:44.560
can do that now. >> Uh, we could maybe zoom in for that. We'll see how that goes. Uh, other than that, that's all I have for now. Um, a reminder for graduation next

163
00:44:44.560 --> 00:45:00.400
week. If you show up a little bit early, we will have booters for you guys. We'll meet in the office. Um, again, I think all of you have been through a graduation. Uh, so it should be old hat for now. >> Um, other than that, that's all I got. Just

164
00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:19.680
remember, Stephen, when you're setting those chairs up top, just leave a little gap. Okay? You don't need to be all >> a little Just a little short sitting on the ramp. >> What time should we be there?

165
00:45:19.680 --> 00:45:36.640
>> Uh, it begins at 6. >> Begins at 7:00. >> It begins at 7. So, I mean, we would have got there earlier. >> Been there on time, >> right? Yeah, 6:30 I think >> 6:304 to 7 somewhere in there. >> That'll work. >> Okay.

166
00:45:36.640 --> 00:45:52.800
>> All right. Uh we'll move on to action items. There's no old business. We move on to new business. Consideration to approve the fiscal year 27 budget. Josh. >> Yeah. So, it's fun time I guess of the

167
00:45:52.800 --> 00:46:08.079
year we just went through the 26 revised. you'll get the initial 27 and then June you'll get the final 26 revised. Um what we do here is just kind of compare uh the initial budget for fiscal 27 against the last revised budget and the

168
00:46:08.079 --> 00:46:24.960
bottom part would be the changes. Um that's just if you guys want to kind of take a look at where we're at. I think the big item obviously is going to be the top section um the initial budget for fiscal 27. Uh, a couple of big things and and kind of I guess in terms

169
00:46:24.960 --> 00:46:40.000
of what we've done over the last many years as I've been putting budgets together, um, we've got a point here and because of the successful passing of the referendum, um, where we're going to have at the end of the fiscal year projected balance where we can build our

170
00:46:40.000 --> 00:46:57.359
fund balance. Um had we not passed the referendum um we're probably in the neighborhood of looking at that $500 plus thousand worth of reductions again for fiscal 27. Um what this allows in here um as we go Rita talked about Lori

171
00:46:57.359 --> 00:47:13.760
getting together with groups and going through negotiation type things for next year's contracts. Um it allows us to do a little bit of some right sizing. We have surveys from HBL and area schools about where we're kind of at uh relative to them and what we pay for either salary or wage depending on different

172
00:47:13.760 --> 00:47:29.520
groups. Um and this has allowed us to rate a lot of that. We're not at the high end by any means. Uh but we're definitely not at the low end any longer. Uh those numbers are getting worked into this uh budget and as Lori goes through uh with each of the meeting with each of the groups uh we find be

173
00:47:29.520 --> 00:47:45.839
signing off on those. also in this contract or in this budget uh the fiscal 27 teachers contract the second year is is settled. So the actual amounts are inside of this budget. Um and for all the uh realignments of staff whether

174
00:47:45.839 --> 00:48:01.119
retirement or going to another district or new staff coming in uh as much as possible all the actual amounts for next year are inside of this budget. Um, and what it does is at the end of this fiscal year project and again this is now your a couple mile away view of it

175
00:48:01.119 --> 00:48:18.160
as we get towards the end of next fiscal year and we're going to be in for 26 um when we do our presentation in June that'll get a little bit closer. Um, but it allows us to project about $300,000 to the good into that general fund. Uh, we come in at the end of fiscal 25 audit

176
00:48:18.160 --> 00:48:34.800
with an unassigned fund balance hovering around that 4%. Uh we presented fiscal 26 revised last month about $100,000 projected to help with that. Um mixed that with the 300,000 we're looking at about five five and a half close to 6%

177
00:48:34.800 --> 00:48:50.160
in the unassigned at the end of fiscal 27 and that doesn't include uh that first payment of track dollars which we've discussed is going to be put into the unassigned help raise that up. Now we're getting closer to that goal of our policy of 8 to 12% in the assigned um which is a much healthier financial

178
00:48:50.160 --> 00:49:06.480
place for the district to be and help to weather some of the storms. When we get to conversations of uh do we have uh you know class number expectations where these are at 28 we don't have the budget. Usually we're coming to this time of the year uh we're saying we're

179
00:49:06.480 --> 00:49:22.559
balanced the way it is. It really is hard to make those sorts of decisions. when we have some fund balance uh to make some of those day-to-day decisions maybe a little bit easier where you're not having to be reactionary to everything. We can be a little bit more proactive on things. So, uh wonderful thing for the community to you know support the school pass referendum and

180
00:49:22.559 --> 00:49:37.599
allows the district to do some good things to help uh the community and the school and ultimately the kids in the district. So, uh in the general fund as it presents today a very good outlook for fiscal 27. Um in food service uh

181
00:49:37.599 --> 00:49:53.200
there was a positive fund downstairs this past fiscal year 26 we did spend it down you see the negative there for the revised 26 we basically essentially break even in food service uh that fund is not allowed to go negative. Um we've been very successful in the last few

182
00:49:53.200 --> 00:50:08.720
years of keeping that not only positive but be able to do some nice things in food service whether it be the the line at the elementary or getting some equipment. Uh so for that to break even is a good thing for the district. Uh and again that would include benefiting some of those contracts in that food service

183
00:50:08.720 --> 00:50:25.040
department as well. Community service, same thing as we've talked about. Last year was kind of the first year in a while that we were able to get that fund balance to be positive on its own. Uh that will continue not only in fiscal 26 but projected in fiscal 27. Uh have the numbers being a little bit tighter

184
00:50:25.040 --> 00:50:41.760
there. It uh there is retirement in preschool. will have pre three preschool teachers. Uh but with that those kind of staff transitioning to some bomber care and hiring three more uh pairs for that day. So there's some cost that's additional to that. Uh but there is

185
00:50:41.760 --> 00:50:57.359
going to be some added revenue by having not only the bomber care but the influx we see in can kids. So still projecting that to stay positive by the end of fiscal year construction that should be wiped out pending uh the final payment on that roof project. Uh I'm assuming

186
00:50:57.359 --> 00:51:12.160
that we're going to get this done before June 30th. So I'm not going to carry that over to 27 at all. Um and it'll be kind of put as a payable anyway. So it should stay clear. Generally a construction fund you're only going to see when we have a bond type projects. Otherwise everything for capital facility items will stay in the general

187
00:51:12.160 --> 00:51:27.040
fund. Uh debt service that is set based upon our requirements. So uh we levy what our our bonds are whether it be for the auditorium fieldhouse, the UNESCO project or the CDE project. U that all gets sent into MDE and out to the

188
00:51:27.040 --> 00:51:44.800
county. Um in our county, well, all the counties levy is at 105% is what it's set to collect. Assuming there's going to be some delinquency generally in Gucci County, we uh do a good job of collecting or taxpayers do a good job of paying. Uh sometimes we'll see a

189
00:51:44.800 --> 00:52:01.440
reduction in that. It really is set up on what is the debt service payment and what that revenue is scheduled to come in. So the revenue will show a little bit higher now. By the time we get to the final levy, there may be an adjustment there depending how it goes. Uh whether that fund is positive or negative is really not to be of concern

190
00:52:01.440 --> 00:52:17.920
or something that we'd have to fret too much about because it is set to pay the uh the debt on those bonds. Trusting agency is it started out as just scholarship and recently in the last couple years we've added some things in there so we can carry over the dollars. Generally at the end of the fiscal year

191
00:52:17.920 --> 00:52:33.520
in the general fund, it gets put into the general assign. Uh in trusting agency, we carry programs over. Uh so in the scholarship funds, if someone gave a big trust and is just trying to pay off uh scholarship as if the dundle's a balance, it can stay in there. Uh we have a large donation a couple years ago

192
00:52:33.520 --> 00:52:49.280
from Gemini and to for the innovation lab, it can roll over and we can add some into there and use that year to year. uh but also the scoreboards and uh we got great support by our community to put their names on our scoreboards. Uh it kind of benefits both sides. They get

193
00:52:49.280 --> 00:53:06.960
eyes on their their ads as well as we get some benefit to the district help offset some costs that maybe the general fund generally would not support. The the last one is student activity and that is going to show as just uh plus minus and that really is a recommendation from our auditors. Uh and

194
00:53:06.960 --> 00:53:22.079
kind of born on my concern at the end of the year we have such a large budget variance when we put in uh student activity under board control. That meant that those funds now are under board control. They show up on the budget. We generally don't budget it because you can only spend what's in those funds.

195
00:53:22.079 --> 00:53:38.800
Um, but if we put at least an expension revenue amount there, it'll help with that end of year large variance in the budget and and not be in my eyes kind of a negative hit on the auto industry. You'd like to have be as as close as possible. So, uh, any questions? I'll certainly do my best to to answer for

196
00:53:38.800 --> 00:53:53.280
you. >> Not so much on the dayto-day of what you presented here, but moving forward. So, we passed the referendum, right? Is there a way that we can gather either a quick hit list around, hey, the referendum is helping fund these items, right? Let's just say it's a teacher or

197
00:53:53.280 --> 00:54:10.400
we're able to do things now that we weren't able to do moving forward. >> Yeah. I think the big thing, I don't know how you'd necessarily want to itemize it, but the first part would be had we not had the referendum, we're probably looking at another painful uh winter and spring of

198
00:54:10.400 --> 00:54:27.680
how are we going to reduce $500,000 for, you know, necessities. So, that's the first main part of it. Uh the second part, at least for this budget um is doing some ranching of contracts that have been held back because we don't have funds. you know, it it in order to try to make things meet some end up

199
00:54:27.680 --> 00:54:43.839
meeting percentages less than what they maybe could or should be. Over time, that falls back. Um, this allows us to help. >> Yeah. And we're at risk of losing talent at that point, too. Right. So, it's >> Yeah. And you you want to do the best, you know, to maintain and retain, you know, attract quality people and um, you

200
00:54:43.839 --> 00:54:58.480
know, what's right, especially when you can go and say, well, so and so does this. Well, now Camp Falls be able to do some of that as well. So, >> okay. So, those would be the two big things in this budget. Um, I think, >> you know, we're trying as much as we can

201
00:54:58.480 --> 00:55:14.640
with our LTFM dollars, maybe and energy dollars, uh, eventually with track dollars to help alleviate some of that general fund burden for the facility items. Um, kind of keep those things separate. Um, so it wouldn't necessarily fall underneath referendum dollars for

202
00:55:14.640 --> 00:55:32.800
that portion of it. Um but yeah, I think especially it's good to be transparent on where those things are about. >> Thanks. >> I think it's important to note too. I think you kind of quickly touched on it. Um we're growing our fund balance in a positive way too and just for um us to I

203
00:55:32.800 --> 00:55:49.040
mean that's that gives the school a little better financial security in case something does something big happens. We want to be able to >> Yeah, it's it's it's a >> it's a tough thing because >> in my world in around million dollars is a million dollars. It's a lot of funds.

204
00:55:49.040 --> 00:56:05.599
Uh but when it gets you less than 10% in your fund balance, that's less than a month of our operations. So, >> um so it gets hard when you make decisions, well, you guys are keeping you could spend those dollars or we could, but we're not in very good financial health. I think this allows us to be able to be both financially

205
00:56:05.599 --> 00:56:20.880
healthy um but able to make sure we're doing right by school. >> I think it's the continued responsibility of >> Yeah. >> watching how we're spending the hours also. >> Yeah. >> And to be clear, it's been how many years since we've been able to

206
00:56:20.880 --> 00:56:36.720
successfully keep adding to it, you know what I mean? Like it's been quite some time since we've been able to do this. >> And that's that's hu that's huge. >> You without exaggerating, you probably say a generation. Yeah, I mean that's >> 15 20 years. >> No, that's a big step in the right

207
00:56:36.720 --> 00:56:58.559
direction. >> Any other questions for Josh? >> Thanks a lot, Josh. Detailed report. >> Uh, I would look for a motion to approve the fiscal year 27 budget. >> I'll make a motion. >> Joey on the >> I'll second.

208
00:56:58.559 --> 00:57:14.319
>> Pete on the second. Any other discussion? All in favor say I. >> I. >> Oppose. Motion carries. >> Excuse me. Consideration to approve the updated 2627 fee schedule.

209
00:57:14.319 --> 00:57:29.839
>> Uh these are well it is what it says that it is. It's our uh upcoming school year's FY27 fee schedule. Uh obviously we have to keep our student meal costs on there uh as we never know when or if the lunch prices will come back. So

210
00:57:29.839 --> 00:57:46.799
those will continue to stay on there. Uh the class free fees, the technology fees, the activity fees are all as presented. Uh probably the the biggest changes uh would be the admissions uh that the HBO recently made some changes to. Um I don't know if Reed do you want

211
00:57:46.799 --> 00:58:04.880
to explain a little bit of that with the >> with with going to bound as HBL we agreed that we are um all going to go cashless at the gate so there won't be any cash boxes for ticketing options at

212
00:58:04.880 --> 00:58:22.160
the gates and the other piece that we agreed to is that we are um allowing senior citizens both home and away 65 and free in to kind of help alleviate what I just said about the

213
00:58:22.160 --> 00:58:41.200
cashless price. >> It's a smart way. >> I still have people younger than that complain. >> Are we going to ask what the age is? No. But might it be reciproc and and what's important to note here is

214
00:58:41.200 --> 00:58:58.000
that the and I'm I'm going to use the term the inconvenience of what we're trying to accomplish here isn't going to be for our people. It's going to be for the visiting fans coming to us and and but we're trying to make it more convenient and have everybody has the same

215
00:58:58.000 --> 00:59:14.960
expectations for all of our HBO schools moving forward so that there's that consistency piece. So everything will all go through bound. Uh this should be one of the last times that we're using goan unless uh uh we're hosting some section baseball which we anticipate

216
00:59:14.960 --> 00:59:30.400
just to provide as another option. So all that will go through that point. We will still have cash box options for concessions >> and we'll have card options. But by going that cashless for that ticketing,

217
00:59:30.400 --> 00:59:46.880
that's what keeps bound at a minimal cost for us, you know, essentially free, if you will, minus some startup cost versus the $7,000 that I had explained before of different platforms through the R school arbiter package. >> Is there like fees charged to us then?

218
00:59:46.880 --> 01:00:03.520
>> Yeah, the big fees go passed down just like they currently do. Okay. >> And the cash the cashless option and the concessions will be new. this coming year. So before we didn't have the cashless option and so I think that'll be a nice addition also for

219
01:00:03.520 --> 01:00:19.520
payments. >> And again we're just talking here at >> at the school. We're not talking about downtown or outside. >> And when does that start the cash >> next year? >> Next year. And and again it we've had a lot of

220
01:00:19.520 --> 01:00:36.400
conversation about well do we do we wait a year or whatever and we've kind of decided that ultimately section one or just HBL in general whether you go to Mayo Civic for any event it's cashless so that's what you're paying. If you go to any state tournament

221
01:00:36.400 --> 01:00:51.599
>> it's cashless and that's what you're paying and the fees are passed on >> to the customer. So we aren't changing anything in that regard. In fact we're being consistent with that. How about at the section level? Will seniors be free or that section?

222
01:00:51.599 --> 01:01:06.559
>> Yeah, >> that's a different governing. >> Yeah. Right. >> So, anybody who wants to save money and not have to pay that fee still has to pay the fee because they have to still pay the use the credit card, >> right? But our people are going to buy

223
01:01:06.559 --> 01:01:22.559
their season passes. >> True. and we'll have the opportunity and I know that Tammy and I will be down there, but we'll set something up like you want to come and write a check for your season pass or your adult pass, your family pass, whatever, communicate with us. We'll take care of that to avoid you having to pay for those fees

224
01:01:22.559 --> 01:01:38.640
if you want to do it that way. >> But you have to do it ahead of time. You can't do it at the gate. So, and we'll push all that out. We'll explain that at >> fall pack and and in social media stuff going out ahead of time. Again, it >> you know, is it going to catch some of our folks? Yes, but as long as they're

225
01:01:38.640 --> 01:01:54.680
planning ahead and they're utilizing our our past system that we currently have in place and that we aren't changing from last year, including our students, >> that impact will be minimal >> for our community, for our >> period.

226
01:01:56.000 --> 01:02:13.760
Other than we have not no other fee changes for our activities. Yeah, that was the real changes to this. So, we do recommend approval >> and that's where if the talking about if the referendum would pass now, we would

227
01:02:13.760 --> 01:02:29.680
>> I think we were talking our fees fees were going to be up in the hundreds. Yeah. And uh so that's one one thing and then plus getting to have our students still have free admission which we all think is >> quite a great deal that separates us from a lot of different schools. >> Right.

228
01:02:29.680 --> 01:02:45.040
>> Great. >> All right. There's no more questions. Look for a motion to approve the updated 2627P schedule. >> I'll move to approve. >> I'll second on the motion. Join on the second. Any other discussion? All in favor say I. >> I.

229
01:02:45.040 --> 01:03:01.760
>> Oppose. Motion carries. Consideration to approve resolution uh authoring a transfer from the general fund to food service fund if applicable. Uh Josh kind of referenced this a little bit before about the the lunch

230
01:03:01.760 --> 01:03:18.319
fund too cannot go in uh the whole and so probably even this started before I got here uh as it was needed transfers from the general fund into food service. Um but we kind of slowed that down over the years and now it's running a

231
01:03:18.319 --> 01:03:35.760
positive fund balance. But uh for safety sake and ahead of the audit coming up here in August uh we always want to do this resolution in case we do need to make a transfer from the general fund into food service. So it's more of a precautionary item to do the resolution

232
01:03:35.760 --> 01:03:51.680
>> and it is a resolution by the way >> as a reminder. >> It's a short one though. >> It is. You're you're right. Yeah. I would look for a motion to approve.

233
01:03:51.680 --> 01:04:08.640
>> I'll make the motion. >> Randy, the motion. >> Second. >> Second. Just click. Take your >> Whereas the school board of independent school district number 252 has determined that a transfer of funds is

234
01:04:08.640 --> 01:04:24.400
necessary to eliminate the deficit in the food service fund. Be it hereby resolved by the school board of independent school district number 252 to transfer dollars from the general fund to the f food service fund. Need a yes or no vote. Randy >> yes. >> Luke >> yes.

235
01:04:24.400 --> 01:04:43.920
>> Clinton >> yes. >> Jody >> yes. >> Yes. >> And myself is yes. >> All right. Uh, one other thing I just thought of is, uh, we'll talk about this now is we had our school board at school day. Um, and

236
01:04:43.920 --> 01:05:02.160
it was walk to school day, >> Pete. You took place in that. >> I did. >> Uh, so is there anything anyone wants to add about that day? >> No, thanks for hosting us at the school, too. It was a lot of fun. It was fun to

237
01:05:02.160 --> 01:05:20.079
pop in some of the glasses and see all the great things and it was fun to see the kids reaction when we came in. I actually got to sign my first year book in about 1920 this year. >> Yeah. So that was pretty fun. Yeah. So many thanks for the teachers and for you

238
01:05:20.079 --> 01:05:35.520
guys organizing. It was I had a blast doing it. So it was a good time. >> It is. It's probably one of my favorite things too. We were in a classroom up here in the high school and they were doing like full-fledged taxiderermy in the classroom and it was like really impressive. It was I mean and then they put pulled down they're like yeah then

239
01:05:35.520 --> 01:05:51.280
we made these fishing poles from scratch you know it just it's just a very cool unique thing that you don't stumble across in all schools. Um and these kids were enjoying it and they were eating it up and loving it. >> Yeah. >> It's a good reminder of what a reminder for me anyways of what a great school we

240
01:05:51.280 --> 01:06:06.640
have. We have good opportunities. I was also in that taxiderermy class. Kudos to those kids. They were getting down and dirty in those. And they explained to us they go out and get the animals. They kill them and skin them.

241
01:06:06.640 --> 01:06:23.520
And that was pretty cool. And yeah, we have a lot of opportunities for >> My first year teaching, I shared a room with an egg teacher >> and I'd come in at 7:00 or 7:30 in the morning and there would be a garbage bag sitting outside the door. and is usually found animals or

242
01:06:23.520 --> 01:06:38.880
>> animals that they may have uh >> uh hunted along the way. >> So hunted >> some some you use roadkill. I did say >> I did not open the bags

243
01:06:38.880 --> 01:06:54.640
>> for fear of the smell. But it's it's also fun being in the elementary school, too, and seeing the excitement on those kids' faces and um yeah, seeing what they do down there, too. It's pretty cool. >> We have a pretty cool school. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. I would just add thanks to the

244
01:06:54.640 --> 01:07:10.559
teachers, too. You know, that's one more thing to add to their plate while we're there, right, to accommodate us. Um but they did it great and were happy to see us. And I did see Clinton chase kids at recess. It was pretty fun to watch and was concerned you might crush someone,

245
01:07:10.559 --> 01:07:28.559
but they were loving it. I was loving it. It was It was a good time. >> I didn't get any parent complaints. >> I didn't get sent to the principal. >> Call some security for some high. >> Gave a lot of high fives. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> We all got to enjoy rice hot dish, which

246
01:07:28.559 --> 01:07:45.280
was a throwback for me for sure. It was good. >> I got to make a pot and put it in the brand new kiln at the elementary school. That was pretty cool. >> Mhm. >> Waiting for my pot to come back. >> They're handing clay stuff out this week. Maybe it'll >> perfect. >> Some random one.

247
01:07:45.280 --> 01:08:01.680
>> I just I just like to see all the different grade levels. Step up and then get to see all the different teaching styles. It's really It's evident in every classroom that everyone's got a little um >> they do things just a certain way and there's no perfect way or or absolute

248
01:08:01.680 --> 01:08:18.480
right way. And uh so it's really nice to see that. And uh yeah. Hats off to all of our staff down in both buildings and whatever else. We have some really amazing staff and uh kids are well behaved and >> it was a great day. A lot of fun.

249
01:08:18.480 --> 01:08:34.880
>> Yeah. I would like to add to your point just around the different teaching styles. The amount of win programs that were going on. You see the general excitement of kids going to them and the seeing the progress that they get to make was pretty good. I remember in school it was always if you had to go, you weren't you weren't excited about it. But the teachers do a phenomenal job

250
01:08:34.880 --> 01:08:50.560
down there. Seeing the kids generally excited about going to those programs is is pretty neat. >> All right. Thank you. All right. Uh around the horn, if you got any good news to share, that's good news time. Reed, we'll start with you.

251
01:08:50.560 --> 01:09:05.920
Minute or less. Quick. >> I'll start I'll start quick with following up with or adding to what you were just referencing. Thank you for those of you that attended the senior signing day on that day that you were here. So, I want to say that's the third or fourth year that we've done that. um honor those. >> That was a perfect day for that. >> Yeah, it was.

252
01:09:05.920 --> 01:09:22.640
>> So, just we always try to do it the first Wednesday in May at 1:30 every year. So, uh that's good. And then just uh last thing is uh good luck to all our bombers here competing in the postseason starting up and uh it's going to be an exciting busy time.

253
01:09:22.640 --> 01:09:40.880
>> Thanks, Tim. Yeah, just you know it was mentioned how great our kids are here in this building and I just want to say a big thank you and congratulations to our graduating seniors. It was really cool to see all of them get the ones that got awards last Wednesday. Uh the community

254
01:09:40.880 --> 01:09:57.679
um graciously gave $181,000 in scholarships to our graduating class. Um that's pretty amazing. >> Absolutely. Uh, let's do it. >> Uh, today I witnessed some pretty cool things. It was down at the elementary

255
01:09:57.679 --> 01:10:12.880
school during the lunch program. I stopped in to say hi to Josh, see how things were going. Um, and there's a kid just walking around with his sweeper just going around the whole time. They're like, "Yeah, we literally have to like tell him to slow down at lunch,

256
01:10:12.880 --> 01:10:32.560
eat your food, taste it. The broom will be there when your food starts." I guess he goes to town every day with this broom. just goes and collects stuff around. Then we had a couple kids sitting by the milk um cup. >> How long to make an iron? >> You got to wait a little bit. The last

257
01:10:32.560 --> 01:10:47.040
journey, but they they're literally fighting in place to uh stack the cups in the cup racks for the dishwashers. I mean, that's starting at the elementary school. So, um that just tells you how good our staff is and um how good of a school um we are running down there. So,

258
01:10:47.040 --> 01:11:06.800
kudos to you, Mr. Stros >> uh my around the horn positive is just the kind of a shout out then to the our PBIS committee for implementing the pizza with the principal thing that they did this year. It was the two co-chairs, Kathy Start and Courtney Mader, and then

259
01:11:06.800 --> 01:11:22.239
the whole PBS committee, which too many to name, that all kind of came up with this idea as a way to recognize some of those students that um might get missed sometimes because they're always doing the right thing. They're always doing the good things. So, we sometimes take

260
01:11:22.239 --> 01:11:37.520
for granted that. And we don't have this is kind of a way for us to, you know, recognize we don't have a student of the month, you know, we don't do anything like that. So, this kind of takes the place of that in a way. um handing those things out to kids like the week before usually and saying like, "Hey, you've been nominated and your name was

261
01:11:37.520 --> 01:11:54.560
randomly drawn for this. Um the smiles, the eyes, they're so excited. They're like, "What me?" Like, "What teacher nominated me?" You know, and sometimes it's four teachers that nominated them. It might be their PE teacher, their classroom teacher, you know, we've had lunch, uh the cafeteria staff has nominated students for doing some of the things Stephen's talked about. So, it's

262
01:11:54.560 --> 01:12:10.159
just been a really cool program and it's awesome for me once a month to sit down with those kids and have conversations. um for about two hours straight. I get to eat pizza, which is knocking down my waistline, but then I get to like have conversations with those kids. Pre-K through five is awesome. It's super fun.

263
01:12:10.159 --> 01:12:27.199
Just the highlight of my month by far. Every every week we do it. >> But if you if you do more Tik Toks. >> Yeah, to bring some of that pizza. We should probably have more Tik Toks. >> We'll see. We'll see. >> All right. Thanks, Josh. Uh well, the

264
01:12:27.199 --> 01:12:43.199
last two months I've been elbows deep in spreadsheets and it's uh been very timeconuming, but it's nice when you can kind of see a real positive reflection of what's going to probably mean to the district and our community. So that I think that's pretty positive. >> Yeah, absolutely. Thank you. >> Thanks, Pete.

265
01:12:43.199 --> 01:12:58.320
>> Yeah, we talked about it. They had school and watch school was a blast. So that's what I had. >> Uh it finally rained. I cannot keep the things in the garden along alive any longer. It needs to rain. So, I'm appreciative of the rain.

266
01:12:58.320 --> 01:13:15.440
>> It's cheap, too. >> Yeah. >> Uh again, Miss Hoffman, Miss Donbeck, for a lot of different reasons. Uh thank you for providing a positive uh trip for our uh DC kids. Um and thank you for

267
01:13:15.440 --> 01:13:31.600
providing uh from a personal standpoint, thank you for providing an awesome trip for my daughter. >> Yeah. I say, is that the most you've heard about the trip? >> Right. You didn't. >> No, no. My daughter shares question. >> Oh, did you? >> I was getting Snapchats, which I had to learn from Snapchat.

268
01:13:31.600 --> 01:13:46.960
>> Um, all these pictures and things going on. So, yeah, it was pretty cool. >> Yeah. >> And I was a VC strap many moons ago and so I was trying to tell her to where to go and what to see, whatever. >> So, thanks. Uh, I was just going to say I'm

269
01:13:46.960 --> 01:14:04.000
on the senior class party uh planning committee and I just really wanted to recognize all the u uh businesses and uh individuals uh everyone that donates to uh the senior class party to to make that happen. That's a real great event

270
01:14:04.000 --> 01:14:19.199
that we're able to put on for our seniors in a nice safe and controlled uh atmosphere right after uh graduation. So, uh, a lot of different prizes and now we're we get to host it back at the school. Uh,

271
01:14:19.199 --> 01:14:35.920
so I think that brings a lot more to it. That's how I remember mine was. Uh, used to be at the CCC or whatever else. But, uh, I think it's a lot more fun having it right here in our own backyard, uh, rather than going to where we were traveling quite a bit before. So, big

272
01:14:35.920 --> 01:14:52.000
thanks to us uh Steven and his crew for accommodating uh and basically getting us whatever we need down there to to get that to go because it's basically about what 3:00 hits and we have only a few

273
01:14:52.000 --> 01:15:09.199
hours to get that whole thing set up. So, uh uh and so big thank you to all the different volunteers that uh helped get that all set up and like I said, all the prizes, uh drinks, food, everything like that. So, uh, that's awesome. So, the other thing was is that, uh, I just

274
01:15:09.199 --> 01:15:24.719
wanted to say, uh, tomorrow from 4 to 6 kind of have like Canon Falls, uh, community input on what the future of, uh, what we want, what the what everyone wants the future of our town to look like. So, here's a good opportunity to

275
01:15:24.719 --> 01:15:42.000
uh, voice your opinions. Um, uh, Luke's going to be stepping in for uh, me tomorrow and representing us on the school side. Uh, so come down there and harass him. Uh, I can say that because I'll be I'll be announcing the softball game. So, >> do we know is it going to be like live

276
01:15:42.000 --> 01:16:01.120
feed, recorded? >> I think that'll be recorded. I'm not 100%. >> Yeah, I don't know yet. No, I haven't heard if they're going to record a report. It is actually like almost like an open house format, >> right? >> Like like a walk around walk situation

277
01:16:01.120 --> 01:16:17.360
or Yeah. Okay. >> But I do think there will be a report out of it because if you didn't hear this, we actually got um 10% exactly of the town >> to do feedback, which is unheard of. >> Wow. >> In community feedback. You're lucky to get 2%

278
01:16:17.360 --> 01:16:32.880
>> is considered a win. >> Okay. >> They got 10% which is >> amazing. Yeah. So >> I Yeah. I'm excited to hear what comes from that. Yeah. >> Yeah. Yeah. For sure. >> Yeah. Uh like Clinton said, I will be there. Um, so I would encourage anyone

279
01:16:32.880 --> 01:16:49.840
here that can't be there to get me information if you want something to be represented from us uh via the school. Um, also I want to give a shout out to Riley Iverson who's a high school student here. She uh was pretty cool yesterday. I have the privilege of coaching 8U softball and there's 22 of

280
01:16:49.840 --> 01:17:04.800
those little nuggets right around that I get to uh chase around uh which is a blast. Feels like a chore some days. But anyway, Riley showed up out of nowhere just to help. Didn't ask, didn't really be to didn't wasn't told and was there

281
01:17:04.800 --> 01:17:21.679
to help and just give a hand and and the kids thought that was cool cuz she's a softball player and um so it was just really cool, you know, and obviously that's more of a CFY thing, but she's had mentors that are in this room and and come through the school that has, you know, obviously learned some good

282
01:17:21.679 --> 01:17:37.199
leadership skills. So that was pretty cool. Congrats to her. >> That's awesome. Um, I don't have much. I'm just excited to see what the sports are going to be, how well they'll be doing the next week or two and hopefully continue and

283
01:17:37.199 --> 01:17:52.800
