Part: 1

1
00:13:32.880 --> 00:13:49.120
All right. Roll call. Schoolboard members, everybody is present. So 4.0 is to approve the agenda and I'll move to approve. >> I'll second. >> Any questions or discussion on the agenda? All those in favor of approving the

2
00:13:49.120 --> 00:14:05.040
agenda say I. I. >> Any opposed? Motion carries. 5.0 communication reports. >> Okay. Um, a couple things. I I sent a a list. I think there were seven policies. I could be wrong to the group. We didn't get them on this meeting. It's a first

3
00:14:05.040 --> 00:14:20.160
reading for the most part. Majority of them are just um I'm going to say technical, but look at them. If the committee has any um suggestions, let me know. Um otherwise we'll put them on for first read on next one. We'll send another group that there are a couple

4
00:14:20.160 --> 00:14:36.320
that are going to get more in depth. One being an AI policy that we're probably at some point I'll get it out to you. But there's a bunch of stuff that needs to be kind of determined and and talked about. So that one I'm probably going to leave towards maybe the end when we um but we'll get there's another group that

5
00:14:36.320 --> 00:14:54.320
has a lot of just technical stuff. Um so anyway, that's coming. um the review and comment on for the um bond stuff got in. Um the next step is we do have to have the they have a um bond council that that does the exact formal language and

6
00:14:54.320 --> 00:15:09.680
that needs to be approved around the next meeting we would have. So whether we have a second meeting or we pick another date, we should talk about tonight and figure it out because right now they're planning to have the language to us for approval and then it

7
00:15:09.680 --> 00:15:24.160
ends up going to the paper and other things, you know. Um so if we're not going to meet on that you that the fourth Monday, you know, if we're going to go a day later or a day earlier or whatever it might be, we should figure that out. Um the other thing that we're

8
00:15:24.160 --> 00:15:40.959
um working on um or Nexus along with us I'm I've reached out to the chamber but they want to get the task force back together the farmer group um do an offer to the chamber businesses on this side is to have some meetings and start educating and the board should probably

9
00:15:40.959 --> 00:15:56.320
have some people you know as part of those discussions now going forth obviously we can't have a quorum so again whether um I'm just throwing it out if there's people that are yeah I'd like to yeah you don't participate in that. Be part of, you know, the conversation. And again, I just throw it

10
00:15:56.320 --> 00:16:11.759
out there. We can be informational when we're as like superintendent and as a board. We can't, hey, you should vote for this. You know, we have to state neutral. Now, when you're out on your own and people are talking to you, you can say whatever you want. Personally,

11
00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:27.360
for the most part, I can't say much unless it was my best friend or something like that, a private conversation, because people look at me as a superintendent. you're as a board, as a unit, but when or even as a committee, you're part of the board. When you're on your own, you can do what

12
00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:45.279
you want. So anyway, um I don't have dates for any of those, you know, come back, but if there's anyone that's Yeah, I'd like to be part of it, I would, you know, whether it's the same group, whether it's different, you know, um I guess, um I throw that out there. um you

13
00:16:45.279 --> 00:17:00.399
know that we're going to have the meetings and >> I think Yeah, I think some of us would probably want to maybe do that. >> We should be. >> Yeah, but I I mean dates would be helpful. >> Well, yeah. No, and and when when whenever we get something, I will shoot it out. I just, you know, like I say, if

14
00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:15.760
I send it to the whole group and the first three that respond or, you know, um whatever. So, keep that in the back of your mind. Um I talked to Lynn a little bit ago. um should do an evaluation on myself on an annual basis. >> And so my plan is if you recall we had a

15
00:17:15.760 --> 00:17:32.880
goal sheet um I will in fact I got about twothirds of it done putting kind of responses to each what we've done and what we haven't gotten done. I will get that out to you probably either tomorrow or Wednesday and then we'll pick a date to have you submit them to Nancy again and then we'll on the first meeting of

16
00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:49.120
August. So it's again we won't do that for the July. We'll keep that meeting as short as we can. We'll then do a close session, you know, go through it again. Um, you okay with that? Um, yeah. Say, I'll I'll share it in Google. >> If you want printed copies or however

17
00:17:49.120 --> 00:18:04.720
you want to do it, you need to get it to Nancy because if we share it, if you start doing it in there, everyone, you know, you're going to either have to print it out or save it and print it or if you want us to print you a copy, let let us know and we'll get it to you. >> So, August 10th is the first meeting in August. >> So, we want to do it that day.

18
00:18:04.720 --> 00:18:19.919
>> So, we'll do it that day. Okay. But we'll put something like in August. I'm just get, you know, fifth date or something. So Nancy has a few days compile and put put it together. >> If you get those things out to us, I mean, we can have it to you, you know, by the third so that you have a week to

19
00:18:19.919 --> 00:18:34.799
whatever put everything together. >> Yeah, I think that's fair. >> Does anyone want a printed version? Okay, I can get you >> take a printed version. >> We'll get it because like I say, I'll be done today or or tomorrow or the next day. We'll we'll we'll send it in the mail to you and you'll have it. >> Okay.

20
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:54.160
>> Okay. Perfect. Let me just make a note. Um the the LTFM plan that you see in there and I mentioned or just was talking a little bit here before the meeting is we've been kind of waiting to see where we went with bond and referendum because um obviously there's some needs, you know, that are coming

21
00:18:54.160 --> 00:19:09.520
quicker than others. Assuming we're planning for passage of the referendum, we didn't want to put those items on our LTFM plan because that's that's a different revenue source. So, we picked two things that are not on there that but yet the track being one that if we

22
00:19:09.520 --> 00:19:26.400
don't attend to in the near future, it's going to need a complete reg grind and redo. It's still in the it was it was looked at again this spring. It's still okay, you know, but you need to do it in the next year or two years. So, so we put that and the same with the tennis court out here. The tennis court at the

23
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:42.400
middle school was much more expensive. They looked at both of them. It's a different it's more of just a cement. It's not actual clay or whatever the surface is on here or harder cement or smooth. It was just a lot. So, we put this redoing this one and it's it's new

24
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:59.360
plate whatever you call resurfacing. There's some pooling areas or um not pooling but like puddling or bird bath issues or something they call it which are low spots. They'll do as much as they can with that and resurface it. And then there's also new um standards if

25
00:19:59.360 --> 00:20:14.640
that's what you call them. I forget, you know, and that's would be, you know, other than redoing complet, you know, the the fencing isn't redone or anything like that. So, those are the two major things on the LTFM plan. If the referendum wouldn't pass, the board then

26
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:30.480
can go back, you can change your LTFM plan. But if assuming it passes or when it passes, these are two things. >> Well, these are two things that should be done in the near future before, you know, even they talk about the tennis courts. if it goes long enough eventually it starts freezing in some of

27
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:46.480
the cracks and it'll become a bigger issue you know so um that's why I guess we chose and didn't didn't have you know like the facility committee come together if well the bond's going to pass so if it doesn't and you want to come back and we

28
00:20:46.480 --> 00:21:03.200
look at some other things we can do that at that time so that makes sense um July 14th through 28th we talked about this next Um, last board meeting is the filing for school board. We have a Nancy has a post that will go out tomorrow.

29
00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:18.960
Um, tomorrow is the opening day. So, again, just throwing it out there if people are interested. Also, I pulled a clip just so the board's aware from the MSBA that if people are interested in what it kind entails being a school board member, MSBA has some information.

30
00:21:18.960 --> 00:21:36.480
So, that that is a link on there. Um you'll notice in your uh agenda uh there's a contract to rehire Surerea. Um for those of you that don't know um we have two grants um that again she wrote back I'm guessing in April maybe prior

31
00:21:36.480 --> 00:21:53.200
to anything coming out. One was for uh state MTSS grant. It's a two-year grant at 250,000. Um it's not all for coordinator. A good chunk of it is um to help implement your process. There's a a a script and a plan of training that we have to do as a

32
00:21:53.200 --> 00:22:08.640
group, district leadership team, building leadership team. Um I was in one meeting with the um have a what do you want to call it? An oversight person from the Northwest Service Co-op that that makes sure everything we have in our grant align. It's been approved. Um

33
00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:24.240
so you'll notice it's a 084 position. We It's an at will position two-year deal. The first year is 084. the second year goes down to I think it's 64 or 67 because there's less money between that. Um there's also part of an MA 25,000

34
00:22:24.240 --> 00:22:41.360
from an MA grant we got. The third grant that's out there that again we haven't heard anything which would not be this person but there's a um we applied for full service community school grant. There's I think five of them in the state. No,

35
00:22:41.360 --> 00:22:57.760
five million in the state. They're 500,000 a piece. So there's 10 grants. Um the chance of us getting in there per school. We applied for all four schools. One is is to bring all services in from mental health, dentistry, all kinds of

36
00:22:57.760 --> 00:23:13.840
different things in house. And they pay a person to coordinate that and facilitate it. Well, we haven't heard. It was originally June date. Now they've pushed it back to September. We'll see when it comes out, but just so the board. So anyway, for that position,

37
00:23:13.840 --> 00:23:28.720
there is zero district money in it. Okay, it's it's grant funded. So I mean it should be a question people ask of going I thought didn't have a well in a position. Um so um again the the admin team did have

38
00:23:28.720 --> 00:23:45.360
some conversation who's you know because um again who's best qualified and so >> so that community school grant that wouldn't implement this year then it would be >> it was supposed to be or but again it's going to depend on when you know and again it's not necessarily have to start

39
00:23:45.360 --> 00:24:01.600
at a start of a school. It's not like, you know, I mean, it's >> seems smoother if it would, but >> Well, it would be correct. But, um, and we'll see. Depends on how um, but yeah, it's it's significant, but I mean, it'd be great if we got one. >> Yeah.

40
00:24:01.600 --> 00:24:16.559
>> But if we got all four, it' be unbelievable, you know. But if you get one going, it makes it easier to implement into next school and next school. Yeah. You know, type deal as well. Um, the last thing I have on here, um, just to make everyone aware, um, we

41
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:31.440
have a dire need for custodial help. Um, we have, actually, I'm going to say we're down four and a half people. Um, we had one person, um, move to Canada. We have a retirement coming up. Um,

42
00:24:31.440 --> 00:24:48.640
a part-time person that quit attending, just we've heard zero from, they quit showing up as a halftime position. Um, that's one of the ones you've seen in here that we're terminating. Um, we had one full-time person that left and has not been in contact was out at CMS that

43
00:24:48.640 --> 00:25:05.440
we don't have a reason for. We don't know, you know, um, haven't been able to have an exit interview. Um, and then one earlier was moved to maintenance. And so theoretically when it all plays out, we're down. We do have one on the docket that should be hired soon. background

44
00:25:05.440 --> 00:25:20.799
checks came back, but I'm just throwing it out. We're we're needing help. Um so if anyone has partially saying it, so it's out there publicly. We do have a a Grand Forks um they have a hiring deal coming up. It's once a month on Wednesdays or something. We're going to

45
00:25:20.799 --> 00:25:36.559
go attend that specifically postcustodial. Yeah. You know, >> is it for the school year or immediate? >> We would take people I mean their full-time position. Yeah. you know, I mean, if someone, like I said, right now we're open to pretty much kind of anything. You know, if someone could

46
00:25:36.559 --> 00:25:51.520
start month from now, we'd probably hire them, >> you know. Um, and so, but I just I I throw it out there that um we have postings out, we have things listed, but um >> not not coming in hand over

47
00:25:51.520 --> 00:26:12.320
or whatever. So, that is what I have at this point. >> Any questions? All right. Um, and no committee reports. >> Oh, the only thing I was going to say is the um, uh, admin assistants had set to meet prior to me going on vacation

48
00:26:12.320 --> 00:26:27.840
before the 4th and then it didn't work out for them. So, they said they'd get back to me this week. They just have a few question or have some questions. So, that's that's where we're at there. >> Okay. 6.0 is a motion to approve the consent agenda as presented. I'll move to

49
00:26:27.840 --> 00:26:43.360
approve. >> Call a second. >> Any questions, discussions, or things pulled from the consent agenda. >> The the only other thing the handbooks are in there. We won't approve them till the August. Got them just so you have plenty of time if people want to look through. Um most of them had

50
00:26:43.360 --> 00:26:58.559
highlighted. I haven't even been through all of them completely, but they tried to highlight the changes, you know. So, um >> and it Yeah. The consent says review. >> Yep. Yep. But I'm just saying they won't be on our next they'll be in the first meeting in August. So the principles are

51
00:26:58.559 --> 00:27:16.400
