I'll read the mission statement for the district part partnership with communities the mission of the dist still wor L felt in school district is to educate individuals in an environment of trust and respect so they become self-directed responsible lifelong all right roll call we have second all right um four agenda any changes no changes to the agenda all right do I have a motion to adopt the agenda so motion by linday do I have a second second second by mcole all those in favor say addos motion carries all right on to number five public comments and rebel recognition I don't think we have any public comments so we'll go on to Rebel recognition um just that fall activities have started and I know it's been very busy around here that's good KD is really happy with all the numbers and all the activities um and so we've had to order some more equipment because of the number of kids we have in seventh grade I know in football anyway she called me so it's it's a good problem to have so that's nice to hear so just kudos to all those coaches and players and families that are getting going with that fall activities and then we've had quite a few staff kind of roaming through kind of here and there everywhere getting wounds ready and lot of new staff obviously so we have uh new staff orientation on Wednesday so they'll all be in to kind of go through a whole bunch of stuff so it's coming up yep and a successful fish fundraiser yeah so for we're all so we had about 800 people sh for it all a little less than expected but the weather didn't cooperate as well as we'd like but but still good though did the person that won the boat just drive it out cuz it was the parking lot when I left perfect something like that yeah and the team on the finals they end up taking third overall amongst all the schools in the Midwest of Minnesota so they did a nice job any other reations all right we'll go on to number six 6.1 technology John another busy spring summer with the crew and we plan 34 projects completed 30 I'm not going to board this group with the logistics of 30 projects but I'm going to speak on four uh that are more probably public facing um before I get into the weeds I just want to take a second to just give a public thank you to to BR C and Mark those guys are in the classrooms every day I drive them nuts with project details and it's from May one to October one we probably have every Daye mapped out on what we're doing that's the reason we're in a good spot right now a lot of us those guys in the classroom staff show tomorrow we' be ready for it it'd be organized chaos like normally is uh first project that is my op it deals with cyber security dgf I spoke on last time but dgf has followed the CIS framework what that means we had stronger passwords multiactor authentication but we've also developed an incident response plan so we never have to use it but it gets in the weeds of who our local law enforcement there's aach who's our attorney who's our insurance what are the necessary apps web services that we deem critical and what ones are we get acknowledge saying yeah it's important but yet these are the priorities so that when staff students come back you can be up and running as soon as possible um I feel good about all those processes but I still think there's a disconnect a lot of times with staff students even you know other people let may not know the details if there's a breach it's not uh hey we're going to be down for a day or two we're we're going to some you know for a period of time to try and educate staff this is just not an IT thing this is an us thing are trying to have current processes that protect our students protect our staff um the other thing we got going on is our staff are getting new devices this here the are running on the Chrome Chrome OS platform Morgan schools has had it for a while Alexandria schools have been doing it for a while schools it's been doing you know for a while um that's going to be a change for are you to Windows ised they have what called sand boxing so if there's aach it just affects that part of the app not the entire system so like the crowd strike Microsoft breach that a lot of people heard about this summer if that was an app sandbox a lot of Industries wouldn't have felt the pain that they did because once that and kind of took over was to was a software driver that took over those Microsoft operating systems but the product that does that is to reduce the cyber security breach so the chromos is just a simple more secure more platform but those devices were given based off curriculum needs so not everyone's going to have them some are still going to have the windows platform few still going to have the you know the laptops but we told staff they can have their Windows laptop device until January 1 as we learn this year of what works what doesn't we did a pilot um ai ai is a beast it's grows and changes quickly and this summer we had some AI training with uh an individual williiam group partnership with Lakes Country service cop that was for the leadership team um my opinion it went well it was some concrete examples of what principles directors uh people in leadership roles can use AI to save time Ryan and I are working on PD content for our staff so when they come in next week they've had some PD exposure before but it's this is an ongoing topic um different examples for secondary staff Elementary staff Middle School staff we're really trying to focus on examples of where they can save time enhance the lesson for themselves or for their students and leave it at that because what we learn today it's probably to look different but you're from now we're just trying to stay current um last but not least telephones we have new telephones uh for the system for the district so we had a phone called shortel lightel um pretty popular Sol solution from 10 years ago that company has changed their pricing model and is essentially getting out of the K12 Market space so when our time came the summer to renew the software replacement agreement we evaluated some different solutions um CH 3cx which is we've tested the department work T paging but we'll have some some training opportunities for staff and you still have a classroom pH but you still have access to a mobile app or if you want to use a soft phone through you can do it through your laptop or through a device so just changing changing partners that all I question with your IRP so are you planning on running like a tabletop exercise or something like that just to help train folks like a simulated event or something on those Lin as far as like security bre yeah um no but it is going to be a topic of discussion for all staff it'll come from me in the beginning um it's awareness of what we can do together our email fishing campaigns is what we have been doing and we'll continue to do that but I think there's value for staff to hear this on a recurrent basis this isn't a gotcha but when we have reduced overall our fishing campaign attacks has reduced from 10% the first year down six that's awesome I love that however can't get complacent on that because the Emil fashion campaigns have become so complex we are turning up the ratch and trying to make it as realistic as possible we share that to go as far as the holidays we'll have the holiday Camp we'll do emails say it's from Joel from Kati try to make it as realistic as possible Goa but we have some some monitor tools that show the number of fishing attempts on dfet 8 100 week one we're going to feel something so we going to share some of those stats with staff more important try to reinforce layers insurance we do have SE insance we up this because it's it's just uh yeah John and I talked a lot a long time about it we met with Casey Holland our insurance and he just kind of said here's here's what's happening out there here's the ransom dollars that are getting requested and the costs and we bump that up and I don't know I mean it's it's more is it enough I don't know it's happening so frequently the state this issue is like 23 and a half million towards cyber security it sounds like a lot but it's not it's on my opinion but it's a start but also starting December one K12 schools cities counties there's a statue that's that you get breached you have to legally reported here's how you report it this time frame the reason they're doing that is because the frequency breaches are happening they're just simply higher but people are trying to sweep it our public we we got tell our public when when you say that you um have some of the stuff in place like this is our law enforcement this is our insurance are you inting that in the Emergency Operations plan too so that if something were to happen and you had to relocate or all that information is in one useful document Noe no sorry I I personally haven't thought about that I really have been focusing on the incident response plan from the Cyber side and I'm following the CIS framework so when I look at what they recommend and even schools on Metro there's 60 to 80 Pages documents I cond down to like a 12 page response app priority legal law enforcement contact stuff like that uh not say you can't incorporate it but thing is from my Emergency Management um background I would say that that would just be an addendum to it so that it would be accessible to that same information so all the parties are privy to the same information and know what the plan is it's a good no I think it's good Su hav't thought about it brought it up I just make notes B because we have a health and safety committee meeting next week no yeah it's next week right it's not this week next week I'll add it so we can at least have the discussion because that's where we built the other emergency plans like okay what does this look how could that fit in here it's a good point probably simple to do and CIS changes different from the change it it doesn't mean it's one trumping over the other it just it's all well the E should really be looked at I mean so yeah okay put I you know once it's established what it is it's page 10 instead of I don't know whatever it just yeah eops are lot short good question questions John I just want to reiterate what he said about his guys the summer they were cooking in both places you know they were knocking out doar first and they just had a lot of time and a lot of work and we just really appreciate your team and your leadership with that there was a lot going on so thank you thanks joh thank you John on 6.2 board committee reports we report meeting on the 6.3 superintendent report yeah we have a a long agenda so I just have a few things back to school Workshop it just starts next week uh I did mention already that this week Wednesday it's the new teacher Workshop so that'll be this Wednesday but everything else kicks off next Monday through Wednesday we have open house um well I guess that's the next thing on the agenda sorry um what else did I have work school workshops next week um pictures she just said pictures perfect for the school board members next Monday get all dressed up and and between 7:30 and 8:30 they'll be right here in the fort so they can get a beautiful picture of you it's like the student picture night too it's well that's for staff that day okay so you guys are staff so it' be perfect if you could come in during that and get your updated y um if you like last year's you know you can probably work out a deal on last year but even if you don't have a whole lot of meetings probably coming up you should probably still don't you think just harassing us that I've only done it once years your just saying it's a suggestion yeah I really like the one from six years ago you just keep using it I use my Lancaster picture when I came here right because I liked it better AK my wife yeah I had long hair I full head anyway so just for you guys uh for board pictures if you can view your Monday morning 7:30 to 8:30 there's kind of a window there for next thing is back to school night that is Tuesday for middle school high school next week and Wednesday is for elementary so what are the times for the open hous that is a great question Middle School they have like presentations at what 5:30 and 6:30 and then Elementary I think it's 4:30 and 5:30 yeah they sent out information to everybody and I saw it but like kid have graduated wait um shoot I'm sorry I don't have the times S I have okay um so yeah just in the next couple weeks just a lot of a lot going on I guess and new staff is coming in like I said earlier too they're just excited to be here and get their room set up so it's been good um last uh thing I have on here is enrollment uh that's been changing by the hour today is the same safe statement uh the last one is 15 55 this morning it was 50 51 we get four more yeah and then I think we even have more that we're waiting to come in so kindergarten numbers 91 so Milestone we got over the 90s now we need to get over 100 slowly but surely right but um I told you it was all going to work it's all going to be fine silly me anyway so yeah so overall enrollment again 1555 that's a positive number we did a budget at 1535 so we can make some adjustments there we but until it all kicks off and gets started it's still one of those things we're gonna wait and make sure so when that first week of school sometimes we go oh shoot I forgot to tell you we moved you know you get some of that that first week so until that all happens uh these are great though it's nice to see that it's moving up and we have more people in Rolling so it's good news questions for me on that 91 on kindergart how many how many rooms are we going still so plenty for five or we have five y we when we get to 100 we are going to add it was well we'll see how this is all happening but that was a discussion we

full day but then in the middle school and high school I believe they had to be there look at it I didn't read uh in the high school handbook in that and then it had to be excused or they had have it was like if they had a dental change to day a full day in MD school and and you were excused if you had I mean I guess we need to make sure they're consistent yes and it's so it's the athletes or whatever activity they have to be in school for full day they have an excuse prearranged okay and they have to meet at school the entire day the next day if there is even following the activity again

Isaac Middle School teacher ba plus 10 step for effec at the start of the 2024 2025 school year I have a motion so motion by Lindsay have a second second by Nicole any questions or discussion all those in favor say I I I oppos motion car on to 9.4 um this is a motion to approve the list of Fund Raisers to date I have a motion motions by Blink second second questions or discussions fundraiser any other questions or discussion hearing none all those in favor say I I same sign motion carries on 9.5 this is the first reading of the following policies 411 donation of employees 5 503 student attendance 902 use of school facilities I have a motion second okay any questions or discussion I I did email Shannon I know we talked about this I emailed Amy and mic to for the policy committee I had someone reach out with a student attendance portion of I mean I think admin sent it out with their back to school handbook and stuff and it was the what version well no the three days if you're ill for 3 days you have to have a doctor's no it's com unexcused so a parent had reached out concerned with that and so I just wanted to bring that up and I I could see where that could become an issue because a lot of people don't bring their kid to the doctor after three days um and I think it might be a cost issue for some families and I think people well that person was just curious of what would an unexcused absence do for their child they go to the doctor well not one but three yeah three days I think that would be I think that would be one we would have to investigate and I think one of the things after reading what I read to him yes we got him right now with the policy in there not that was great and I after you pointed that out to to me like that should probably say may may require that's what we have in all of our other anytime for an employee a student the administration May request because that creates a conversation okay I'm going to call Nicole hey your son's been gone everything okay I mean because that's what we want right we want communication oh yeah he's been sick okay you brought them in I mean it creates dialogue and that's what we want I think the intent is good because we want kids at school of course and we don't want kids gone for reasons that they don't need to be gone but I think it might just create some worry or I mean I think it might cause people to send their kids to school sick because they don't want to bring up to the doctor after three days they don't want to pay for it or just some things thoughts that I was thinking of after I read it but I think well I can tell you I know that there's those Communications already with families that happen when we start to get extended time it's like our secretaries are reaching out a principal our assistant principal be reaching out teachers reach out so I'm hoping that that is remedy there but it's something for sure that we need to watch and make sure that we're taking care and Community policy is fine and we need to have it and that's where the may we might need to be a difference between May and shall like statutorily those are two trigger words that um say we have the authority to ask for this versus you must require this because if we start if we don't have a May and we have it more structured and we require for some families but not other families then we start getting into some favoritism and some legal issues I think so I think if we're not going to require it every single time and it's going to prompt conversation that I do think it should have may versus the absence of May will be shall so I think that needs to be a piece there I mean David might have a different opinion from the legal side well I mean you know it's fair point I mean I think either way should show it's or the same but I think what we should do this is just my opinion and you guys can tell me whatever but I think we should table that one because I want to look at that and I want to change the terminology F that way let's do it right what's that it's the first yeah oh this is just the first reading oh perfect okay then we're okay okay so we can approve the first reading and then I'll make that adjustment I we'll have the conversation because was the second reading tonight so I was like that's why I shot off an email quick so we've been approving a lot of policies I thought it was to so no perfect first reading so we can make it okay thank you any other questions or concerns all those in favor say I hi oos sign motion carries on to 9.6 the certified contract for
