andice for all. >> Thank you everyone. Okay, the first item on our agenda for this evening is strategic plan report. Dr. Johnson. >> Thank you, President Owens. Uh this evening, the first strategic plan report
is the chat GPT update. Lam Stovich, deputy superintendent of instruction, Rola Tariq Muhammad, coordinator of strategic initiatives, Dr. Richard LeBron, TE Middle School principal. Sophia Lopez, Highland Elementary School
fifth grade teacher. Siguse Zerbeski, I'm sorry, I got kind of a thumbs up on that. South Elgen High School Beacon Academy teacher and Valerie Albbuk, Tuft Middle School English language arts teacher will provide the board of education with an
update on chat GPT. Thank you, Dr. Johnson. Good evening, board of education members. Thank you for the opportunity to provide an update on our adoption of ChachiPT Edio for staff. We'll begin with a brief overview of of
imple implementation progress, adoption data, and staff feedback. that my colleagues, a principal and three teachers will share how they have experienced the pilot and how they have integrated the tool into their daily work. In October, the board approved the
adoption of Chad GPT edu for staff within a U46 controlled staff only workspace. This allows staff to utilize AI to support instruction, operations, and communication while keeping U46 in control of its data and usage while
complying with state and federal regulations. Since October, staff participation in CHP edgedu has been paired with structured training. In order to gain access, staff are required to complete the AI 101 Canvas course, which launched
in October and is still ongoing. The course covers the basics of AI, practical use cases, and prompt design, district AI guidelines, and core chat GPT features. This was followed with several professional learning opportunities for
teachers, social workers, and instructional technology building coaches. Later this week on February 27th, we are hosting two sessions specifically for teachers focused on practical use cases in their classroom and on time-saving
strategies like drafting family communication. Beyond centralized sessions, instructional technology building coaches have been instrumental in translating this into daily practice. After receiving their November training, coaches began supporting sitebased
implementation with the focus on helping teachers building a foundational understanding of Chad GPTEDU to support everyday classroom instruction, professional duties, and responsible use. On this slide is an example from Miss Sophia Lopees on Highland
Elementary School who organized play dates to support teachers in her school. Through the admin analytics dashboard in chatp we are able to monitor usage trend and overall engagement patterns. In November over 600 staff members joined
the workspace after completing the required AI course. Now in February, we are at over 756 trained staff members who are using the tool and have shared more than 36,000 messages this month alone.
When we reference total messages sent, that means the number of prompts staff entered in the chat GPT AGU space. Each message is one question or request submitted by a user. The analytics dashboard highlights several of the most common applications
including coaching and instructional planning, collaboration with colleagues, providing feedback on lesson plans, and designing professional learning. We also conducted a survey of staff using chatedu to better understand how the tool is being is being used across
different roles, its perceived impact, and what additional support may be needed. We received over 355 responses representing 47% of the staff using the tool. Over 80% report using chatuptedu at
least a few times per week with nearly one-third using it multiple times per day. This level of frequency suggests that the tool is becoming embedded in the participants work routine rather than used occasionally. Nearly 80% of respondents rate egu an
eight or higher on helplessness which reflects the perceived practical value of the tool. When it comes to time saving, over 70% of respondents estimate saving between 1 to 5 hours per week and 28% estimate
saving 3 to five hours weekly. These time savings allow teachers to review the evidence of student learning to give them feedback and create supports to help them progress with the most common uses purported by respondents being creating instructional materials, lesson
planning, brainstorming, class activities and differentiation. Now I would like to invite Dr. Richard Lebron to share the experience of TE Middle School. >> Thank you Miss Derek and thank you board of education for having us here at TE
Middle School. We launched AI professional learning to strengthen standards aligned lesson design while remaining grounded in Illinois learning standards and our district approved curriculum. AI is positioned as a planning support tool that enhances
teacher thinking not replaces it. This work reinforces our instructional clarity model and our school for rigor and equity practices. It helps teachers to generate ideas, strengthen alignment, increase rigor, and refine
differentiation while maintaining full professional judgment. In terms of professional development, we began implementation with first year teachers in November and then we expanded to all staff due to early success and positive feedback. We
continue offering voluntary department specific sessions before and after school. Currently 44 staff members are actively participating in the pilot and eight additional staff members are completing on boarding.
67 out of 74 staff members have received AI training and this level of engagement reflects both interest and commitment to improving instructional practice in in terms of implementation highlights. Our focus has been on
teachers evaluating and adapting AI generated lessons rather than using them as written. The planning emphasizes alignment to Illinois learning standards, increasing rigor through Marso's taxonomy and designing inter
interdependent student task and intentionally using board approved curriculum resources. Department specific sections were requested by staff because they recognize the practical relevance and instructional value.
In terms of some of the impact that we have observed, we're seeing clearer uh clearer alignment between learning targets and standards, stronger coherence between targets and classroom activities, and more intentional use of curricular resources, particularly in
math. Teachers are designing more interdependent tasks aligned to our instructional clarity model and many report increased confidence in lesson design and instructional clarity resulting in more purposeful instruction.
In terms of our plans for a future moving forward, we want to continue department specific AI planning support, ensure staff completing on board on boarding requirements and expanding our focus on differentiation, deeper
alignment of uh to our instructional claim model and alignment to the U46 strategic plan. We want this to be equitydriven instructional design. Our goal is to cons continue refining this work so every lesson remains
intentional, rigorous, and designed to move all students forward. Now, let me introduce Miss Sophia Lopez. Good evening. I'd like to briefly share how I'm strengthening student support and engagement in my classroom by
combining U46 resources with thoughtful instructional planning along with strategically using chatgpted edu as a tool to personalized learning generated targeted scaffold and provide students with timely feedback that deepens their
thinking. In literacy, I use the fontes and panel reading and writing mini lessons and word study resources to build strong foundational skills. I also incorporate patterns of power to help students understand how grammar and conventions function within writing. For
social studies, we use SAB's easy bridge, which we intentionally integrate into our literacy and writing units. Rather than teaching subjects in isolation, students read, write, and analy an analyze historical content in connected meaningful ways. What has
strengthened this integration is using chat GPT as a professional planning resource. It helps me efficiently connect SAB social studies content to reading standards and writing task, making the integration between content, literacy, and writing cohesive and
purposeful. It also supports the development of academic and domain specific vocabulary and clear language targets for each lesson, ensuring students have the tools to discuss, explain, and write about their learning with accuracy. In math, I rely on Eureka
math to ensure rigor and cohesive coherence across content area. It supports the creation of team-based performance task that intentionally progress throughout a lesson and unit. These task encourage collaboration, application of knowledge and deeper
understanding over time. It also helps in structure instruction using the workshop model, many lessons, guided practice, collaborative work and reflection. So learning remains active and student centered. I want to be very
clear the teacher remains in the driver's seat. I am the instructional expert making the decisions about curriculum differentiation and student needs. Chat GPT does not replace professional judgment. It enhances it.
It serves as a thought partner in lesson flow and development, allowing me to streamline planning so I can dedicate more time to analyzing student work, providing feedback, and directly supporting my students. Ultimately, this
approach strengthens rigor, increases engagement, and supports high quality instruction. Most importantly, it gives me more time to focus on my students growth, confidence, and academic success. Thank you. At this time, I would like to introduce Mr. Sergio from
Beacon Academy. >> Distinguished Bor members, I'm Sergioski. I go by Mr. Sergio. and I teach digital media technology 1 and two and digital media production at Beacon Academy in South Elgen High School uh to almost 120 students from freshman to
junior year. My students don't just complete digital media projects. They produce news stories and run a full live broadcast in a functioning studio environment. That means every class period operates like a small production company. I manage 15 studio positions
rotating roles of varying class sizes all while aligning instruction to district approved curriculum and visual arts standards of perceiving producing and practicing. Uh from the beginning of this pilot program, chat GPT has been an instructational support tool that
allowed me to work more efficiently and more responsively. It helped generate creative prompts aligned to standards. It assisted in formatting and refining rubrics. It allowed me to adjust reading levels and assignment complexity in real time to meet diverse learner needs. Importantly,
it does not replace instructional design or professional judgment. I remain fully responsible for curriculum, assessment, and student learning. What it does is reduce the time spent on formatting, restructuring, and repetitive uh drafting. So, I can focus on feedback,
differentiation, and student growth. In career and technical education, flexibility is critical. Enrollment shifts, production roles change, and live broadcasts requires quick pivots. AI support allows me to adapt without sacrificing rigor. When used
responsively, Chat GPT enhances instructionational effectiveness, supports differentiation, and prepares students for the technological landscapes that they will enter after graduation. in my classroom. It has strengthened teaching, not replaced it, and it has improved flexibility in a
program that mirrors real world media production and its challenges. Thank you so much. And now I would like to introduce next speaker, Valerie Albuk of Tuft Middle School. >> Hi, I teach seventh and eighth grade
language arts at Tuft. I use chat PT GBT as a tool to strengthen rigor depth and engagement of the learning experiences for my students. You'll see that I upload curriculum materials for a lesson and ask chatbt J GBT to generate tasks
that meet very specific criteria. I prompt it to create tasks at analysis or knowledge utilization levels of the taxonomy. I also ask for tasks that are interdependent and require students to receive and respond to peer feedback. In other words, I'm not asking for
worksheets. I'm asking it for higher level thinking tasks that push students to analyze, apply, collaborate, and revise. Here is how I here I outline how this work supports my work as an educator. Chat GPT helps me strategically scaffold
learning so that my advanced students are challenged while students who need additional support have clear structures in place. It supports our district's instructional empowerment expectations by creating interdependent tasks, tasks at a higher taxonomy level and engaging
and tasks that require students to respond to feedback from me and each other. One important point again that you've heard is that we remain the instructional decision m maker. Chat GPT is our planning partner. I have revised
tasks and further adapted them for my students based off of what it said. Here is a concrete example of impact. Originally I had an assignment that was for stu students to fill out a notecatcher and discuss. That task
checks for understanding, but it stays at a relatively low level of thinking. Using chat GPT, I re I redesigned the task. Students researched the effects of pesticized organic food or food deserts on people's access to healthy food. They
rec they created organizers that show environmental, economic, and social impacts. They worked interdependently in teams, gave meaningful feedback to one another, and revised their thinking throughout the process. The result was a noticeable shift in depth. Students
developed stronger expertise in their topics. They were able to apply their research to real world situations. And when it came time for the assessment, they drew on their own knowledge, demonstrating an authentic understanding. The impact is not just better products. It's stronger thinking,
richer discussion, and greater student ownership of learning. I see chat GPT as a tool that helps me raise the level of rigor while still meeting the needs of my students. It allows me to design tasks that are more collaborative, more analytical, and more aligned with real
world applications. Thank you. Back to Rola. >> Thank you, Miss Albuk. Based on adoption data and staff feedback, our recommendation is to continue the early access program through December 2026. This timeline gives us the opportunity to keep
monitoring adoption, evaluate impact and adjust training as needed. In the fall, we will provide an opportunity for additional staff to join the program after completing the required professional development. Thank you and we welcome any questions. >> Thank you for the presentation everyone
who participated in the discussion. Uh do board members have questions at this time? >> Don, thank you for the presentation. Um I have a question on slide five. Um so on slide five it shows number of users
per month and messages sent. I'm assuming messages sent is the questions input into chat GPT. Is there a way so um like for February for for the part of February that we have had it's showing 36,000 total messages. Do we have a way
of collecting the types of messages sent so that we can see if there's duplicates? Like for some reason, do we have 50 teachers all asking how to create a literacy project on the very same topic? Can we see how many are just help me with an email? Like is there a way to
identify overlapping uses? And I ask because while this um we're on a free proposal at this point, I'm assuming this is something will likely come forward in the future with a cost attached. And especially given our earlier um committee looking at
projections and finances, I'm in my head I'm trying to figure out ways to look at ROI on this and how do we best utilize AI? Is that a license for a teacher? Is that a certain per building? So I think for me at least being able to see repetition and questions and how it's
being used can help analyze that and kind of help me as a person who struggles with AI a little bit and the use of it kind of move forward with this within our district. So currently the the like admin analytics dashboard doesn't give us the
opportunity to see um in specifically like if there is any overlap. Um I can go back and check if there is an opportunity that our is team can maybe actually dig deeper and be able to uh get back to you with this information.
>> Thank you. Additional questions uh Sue and then summary. So thank you for the presentation. Um I think all the teachers mentioned that they were still in charge which as as it should be. What do you think chat GTP's
weakness or or not weakness but where have you been had to make the most modifications with from with what you've gotten back from would you say? I think >> can we have you >> I think um the the biggest issue that teachers have is how to write a prompt
into chat GPT >> and understand what it needs to ask for. When I help my staff with chat GPT, um, a lot of staff members will type in something like, "Help create a task for lesson five." And I have to tell it, it
doesn't know what lesson five is. You have to upload it. So, how to be specific about what you're asking for, what prompts to put in. Um, Dr. Lebron at Teft has given us um, documents that we can upload for our departments with the curriculum, the timelines, the, you
know, state standards. So once all that's uploaded, just being and maybe coming up with a bank of prompts that teachers can use would alleviate a lot of the issues that I think are h happening in our early
implementation. >> Thank you. >> Summary. >> Thank you. Mine are more just based on the survey. Um I saw that only what there's like 47% of respondents to the
survey. Is there a way to require everyone using it to kind of as kind of to you know to respond so we can kind of understand the data a little bit better for everyone that's utilizing chat GPT.
>> Yeah. So 47% of the pilot participants uh like responded to the survey. um responding to to the survey is supposed to be part of the like um having access um to the tool. So we are trying as much as possible to like keep uh like
clarifying the expectations and like keep asking uh for everyone to respond to the survey. >> Okay. And then on slide what is this? Um six no slide number eight I see that there's eight um 8.5% not noticing any
noticeable time savings. Do you think that could be attributed to what you were talking about just they're not possibly prompting it right and is there an intervention to go in to talk to that cohort of teachers how to use it better? >> Yeah. So we we are continuing to like as
part of also of the survey we asked uh respondents to like let us know what type of support they need and we are like using this to plan the professional learning that we're offering. So as part of this for example on Friday the two sessions the three sessions actually that are presented are part of this is
like to support teachers with like how can they do better prompting but also what types of times saving strategies that they can use um using AI and also how it can help them for example for the different instructional um tasks and accordingly we'll continue also doing
that with all the professional learning in order to support like everyone Additional questions. Shondaanda, >> thank you for the presentation. I think I have two questions. Um the first one is on slide 26. Um where uh the third bullet point
provide an opportunity for new participants to join the pil pilot in the fall. How many participants are you anticipating? And and remind me how many how many free do we have? We so we have un unlimited um free um access. However, we agreed that we would provide
opportunities for up to 10,000 participants. >> Okay. So, in the fall, are you um opening up to 1,000 more or just kind of a smaller? >> I think it's just to go up to the So, we have about 700 and something right now. So, about 200 and something more people
if they are interested in participating. Okay. And then we would re-evaluate at the end of the pilot in December to then determine what the next steps would be. >> And do you have any idea? Did you survey people who like really want to use it, but they're kind of afraid to use it because it's tech, it's AI, or or with
the prompting, they're like, you know what, that prompting seems like it's going to be a a steep learning curve. Do you know how many people may want to use it but aren't because of that? Uh we had a couple of people actually at the beginning of the pilot who reached out to to both Rola and myself who said, you
know, they originally signed up and said they wanted to be a part of it, but then they're like, "No, we're, you know, we're okay. Just give my spot to somebody else." And so, um, but interestingly enough, none of them were teachers. And so, um, we still have some additional digging to do and research to
do to to find out what kind of is preventing people from from going in. Um, and we can definitely work on that with our steering committee and and do some focus groups. >> Okay. Thank you. >> Any additional questions, Sue? >> Just one one quick question. Are we
seeing more uh secondary teachers or elementary teachers or is it divided pretty evenly? >> I think it's divided pretty uh like evenly. Um, and we're hoping that that's actually what we're also hoping for that everyone would be able to access it and
use it um and really utilize it in their work. >> Okay. Thank you. Smarine. >> Oh, okay. Sh. >> I have one more follow-up question. Are you seeing um staff and specialized student services use it? You know, a lot of staff, teachers or um department
heads or things like that? >> We actually do have a breakdown of the teacher positions. We can get you that as a followup. >> Okay, that would be great. Thank you. >> Anyone else? >> Okay, thank you. >> Thank you.
>> Okay, we have another strategic plan report. >> We do the second strategic plan report tonight's facility planning update. Dr. Anne Williams, deputy superintendent of operations, will present to the board of education an update on facility planning. Good evening.
You could bear with me just one second. My other half isn't here to do the technical part tonight, so I'm on my own. Thank you. >> Good evening again, and thank you for another opportunity to provide the board of education with an update on our
facilities work. Um, tonight we have an update for you as it relates to construction in progress, construction on deck, and two groundbreaking ceremonies that will be coming up in the very near future. We're going to start with our middle
school projects. Starting with Kimble, work continues at Kimble and the addition is now largely under roof and really beginning to take shape. As you can see from the images shown here, current work includes completing the roofing, mounting the remaining rooftop HVAC units, and
finishing exterior framing around the captorium. Inside the building, we're advancing finishes and coordinating some fine design refine final design refinements to ensure the spaces function the way our educators need them to. We're also
evaluating a new program, a few rather program related adjustments for the library tied to the maker space, ADA accessibility, and how the library can flex when needed to preserve collaboration space. The project remains on schedule for
completion in time for the start of school in August. There is a substantial amount of work planned for this summer, and we will take full advantage of the long summer break built into this year's calendar. We are confident in our team's ability to execute the work safely and efficiently and look forward to opening
the doors to Kimble students and staff in the fall. And with that, I do have a short drone video. No, I don't. I have two short drone videos for my next two schools. So, I'm
going to go to K Kenyon Woods next. The Kenyon Woods edition is moving into the final phases of interior completion, flooring installation throughout classrooms and corridors is progressing steadily. Crews are actively installing the active walls, doors, and hardware,
and building signage across the new addition. The active walls in particular will significantly enhance flexible learning spaces for students and staff. We are planning for the physical opening between the new addition and the existing building to occur over spring
break. That timing allows us to min minimize disruption to students and maintain a safe and orderly transition. As originally planned, the remaining site elements, improvements within the existing bus turnaround, and targeted renovations inside the existing building
will take place over the summer to support the full transition of classes into the new spaces. So overall, Kenyan Woods is in a very strong position. The project remains ahead of schedule and well positioned for a smooth transition
in the new year. And now I have a drone video. Okay, on to Legacy Middle School. Construction continues at Legacy Middle School, including erecting structural steel and decking, pouring concrete, and
installing loadbearing masonary walls. Upcoming milestones include completing structural steel in the third story in the three-story building, finishing the final geothermal drilling, and starting to install exterior face brick.
The team took advantage of the favorable weather that occurred last week and the project remains on schedule with substantial completion anticipated for late fall, leaving us plenty of time to move in and have the building building fully ready to welcome students and
staff in August 2027. Again, we have a short drone video that shows you our progress. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Okay, next up is Century Oaks. Um, following full permit approval from the
city of Elgen, crews have been meaning make been making meaningful progress on the classroom addition located on the north half of the property. Concrete foundation work is complete and loadbearing masonry continues as the spokes of the addition rise steadily
each day. Heavy electrical preparation is underway and will continue over the next several weeks. Structural steel installation is targeted to begin shortly thereafter. Site utility work remains active including new water man connections,
storm and sanitary sewer work and required electrical reconfiguration. Geo geothermal well drilling operations are mobilizing this week and will begin immediately. From a schedule standpoint, this project
has been tracking slightly behind earlier projections. However, we anticipate regaining significant momentum in March as multiple f as multiple work streams come online simultaneously, including steel, utilities, and continued masonry,
allowing the team to accelerate overall progress. Again, the recent mild weather worked in our favor and productiv productivity increased almost 100% when our workers aren't contending with the extreme weather. So, we're closely monitoring
sequencing of this project to ensure we meet our delivery timeline without sacrificing quality. And I believe I have one last video. Okay, Last but not least, our final
update is on the new elementary school to be built in Elgen. On Monday, February 4th, the Elgen planning and zoning committee voted unanimously to recommend approval of our plans to construct the new elementary school at this location. The proposal will be
heard by the full city council this Wednesday and we are optimistic about moving forward with the final steps of the local approval process. Assuming continued progress through permitting and zoning, the project will go out to bid in early March and with a
recommendation coming to the board of education to award bids anticipated in late April and early May. As part of the demolition process, required environmental abatement will occur will occur in accordance with state and federal regulations.
Administration anticipates bringing a separate recommendation forward to the board of education at its next meeting. The final sequencing of demolition and new construction will be confirmed as we move fully through permitting. However, our goal is to begin demolition and
early site work mid year. Substantial completion is currently targeted for the first quarter of 2028, which would position us to open the school in time for the 2028 2029 school year.
And I don't have a drone video since we haven't started, but I do have two groundbreaking ceremonies to talk to you about. Um, first we will celebrate the Larkin High School Stadium groundbreaking on Tuesday, February 24th at 3:30 p.m. And while this is not a
Unite U46 initiative, this project represents a significant investment in student experience, school pride, and community engagement. The following week on Tuesday, March 3rd, at 3:30 p.m., we will hold the groundbreaking ceremony for the
Glenbrook Elementary School project in Streamwood. This project reflects our continued commitment to modern, equitable learning environments across the district. These ceremonies are important not just because we are breaking ground on construction, but because they represent
visible progress under 46 and the trust that the community has placed on us. We encourage board members, staff, families, and community partners to attend as we celebrate these milestones together. That concludes my presentation for this
evening. I'd be happy to take any questions that you have at this time. >> Thank you for the presentation. I know a number of us are looking forward to the opening or the groundbreaking ceremony tomorrow. Um, do board members have questions soon. >> Just a quick question. Are we running
into any supply problems with all these projects? Uh well um I wish I could tell you that we were not, but just today I received an invoice that references tariffs that I will need to look into a little bit further. So we haven't seen any delays
in actual shipments that are a direct result, but this is the first time I've seen the T-word come across my desk in their invoicing. >> In other words, we owe more money. >> I'm sorry. >> In other words, our our bill just got bigger >> a little bit. >> Okay. Okay.
>> Any other questions? Okay. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Okay. The next item is comments from the audience. >> Thank you, President Owens. This evening we do have uh public comment. >> Good evening. We are now opening the
public comment portion of the board of education meeting. Those who completed a request to speak card will be called to provide comments in the order in which the cards were received. Online participants have been provided meeting access via Zoom. Written comments
emailed to board-46.org have been posted to the agenda for public viewing. To ensure that all comments are heard, speakers must comply with the following procedures. Individual comments are less than three minutes and comments may not mention the name or personal information of any
student other than the speaker's own child. Please note that while board members listen to speakers, they do not respond to comments or answer questions. Thank you. participual. Our first speaker this evening is Crystal
Eridando. Good evening. My name is Christa Ardando and I am here today to ask the board for help changing dismissal and supervision protocols for all students. Last week, my six-year-old son was released from Loris Park supervision without an authorized adult present. My child
walked home, was unaccounted for, and missing for 20 minutes. During the search for my child, the secretary informed me that the police were going to be notified. However, when speaking to the principal, he informed me that they were never called. The principal also informed me that there is a student code of conduct and that we are now in
February, insinuating that my child should know better by now. Being told law enforcement was contacted when they were not undermines the trust in the school's communication during a serious matter. Although the principal assured me that a missing child does not happen often, one time is too many when it
comes to the safety of a young child. The frequency of such incidents does not lessen the seriousness of the potential risks involved. That being said, I would like to note that the street that the school is is on connects two busy roads and the traffic is always terrible with only yield signs everyone seems to
ignore and only one crossing guard. I've noticed that other schools in our district that are not on a main road have stop signs, two crossuards, and even public and even police presence. I would also like to note that there are 73 registered sex offenders within a two-m radius of our home according to
the LG PD registry. The response by the principal led me to look into the safety and supervision protocols at all elementary schools in our district. Out of 38 schools, only Clinton Elementary School had safe dismissal procedures easily found on their websites. Lords Park, on the other hand, states that
students are to be picked up promptly at dismissal at 210 and that there is no supervision after school beyond 2:25 and tell our children to seek out staff members if they do not see a family member. I find this to be a problem for young students. I say this to bring
awareness to what my six-year-old was released to while in the care of Lord Spark. It is my understanding that the district's attendance campaign is every minute matters. I do believe that every minute matters. Every minute that my child's teacher did not notice he was missing matters. Every minute that my child walked home
alone matters. Every minute that police are not notified in these situations matters. My son matters. Every student matters. I'm asking the board and administrators to work together for a change in dismissal and supervision protocol for all students districtwide.
I thank you for your the for your service you provide to our community and thank you for your time. >> Thank you. >> Our second speaker this evening is Jonathan Medina. Hello, my name is Jonathan Medina. Um, I'm I am bringing to your attention
an issue involving the Bartlett Police Department handling of B of body cam footage related to an incident at one of our schools. While juvenile information was properly redacted, the department also redacted
the faces, the names, and audio of all adult public school officials who were performing their official duties. Illinois FOYA and the law enforcement officer warned Body Camera Act do not authorize redacting the identities of
public employees acting in their official capacity. courts and the attorney general public access counselor have repeatedly affirmed that public employees have reduced privacy
expectations when per performing public duties. These redact redact actions prevent meaningful public oversight and obscure the actions of school officials during an incident involving students.
Transparenc Transparency is essential for maintaining the trust between families, staff, and the community. I have com submitted a request for review to the Illinois Attorney General Public Access Counselor, and I am hopeful that
the matter can be resolved cooperatively. I wanted the board to be aware of this the issue as it directly concerns the conduct and accountability of school personnel. Thank you for your time and
attention. >> Thank you. >> That's it. There are no further comments. Thank you. >> The next item on our agenda is other business board member and superintendent update if necessary. Do board members have any updates they would like to
share soon? >> So last week I had the honor of attending the SRO appreciation breakfast. It was very well attended. I think all of our SRO were there as well as some community policemen who also uh work in our schools. So thank you to them all for what they do.
>> Anyone else? And I know uh Sue and Kate and I were at the uh years of service um ceremony on Thursday night. Um so thank you to all the staff members that that participated and especially writing the
um the bios and putting together um a great uh picture show of of all of the the uh recipients that we had there that evening. Um it was a really really nice evening. So, thank you for the participation in that. >> Yeah, I will I will echo your

>> Next, I also present to you uh changes to board policy 660 curriculum content. The board of education discussed at the previous meeting uh where this was covered that they would not be utilizing the optional language that the uh preference was to use the default
language which would permit the opportunity for administration to make determinations regarding optional curriculum and inclusion uh but would not require it by board policy. >> Okay. May I have a motion to accept the recommendation of the administration to adopt the amendment to the board of
education's policy 660 as outlined in IASB press issue 120 with the default language. >> So moved. >> Second. >> Any questions or discussion? Okay. Roll call, please. >> Miss Kerr, >> yes. >> Miss Khan, >> yes. >> Miss Martin, >> yes.
>> Miss Nolan, >> yes. >> Miss Schwarz, >> yes. >> Miss Thomas, >> yes. >> President Owens, >> yes. >> Motion carried. I also present board policy updates to policy 6 col210 addressing instructional materials. During the previous board
conversation on the subject of board policies, there was additional discussion by the board that we would like to change the language to permit the superintendent or designate to recommend to the board of education adoption of textbooks and other instructional materials. That language
has been added and included in the board materials. >> May I have a motion to accept the recommendation of the administration to adopt the amendment to the board of education's policy 6 col210 as outlined in IASB press issue 120 with
the additional language and as suggested by administration. >> So move >> second. >> Any questions or discussion? >> Don, >> I do I I thought I understood this one. So I think I need clarification. So, looking at the question and answer
section on the bottom of page two, are we um of that section that says required question one and it says has the board adopted the alternative language like what I guess I'm confused as to what's being included.
The recommendation of the board in the previous conversation was to adopt the language which would be the underlined section. However, in discussion with the board last time, there was um additional clarification by members that they would like it to not just be the
superintendent approving the selection of the materials, but also the superintendent or designate. The or designate is what this board would be adding in addition to what press is providing the option of the press language would be the regular
black and white underlined text. Can I ask what we do now? Because I'm reading this and I think I'm now confused on what I'm approving. Like so I'm reading the underlined part and it says the superintendent or designate shall approve the selection of
all other instructional materials and I I think I need clarification that that is not changing how we currently approve curriculum. >> It is not um okay I I believe we currently approach the matter by having um the superintendent overseeing all um
textbooks and instructional materials. However, you will see uh very frequently my colleagues on the education side are the ones who are standing before you at the podium at the deis uh providing information about the textbooks and instructional materials.
>> So that would continue. >> Okay. Correct. So we bring forward a recommendation on behalf of administration which typically also includes uh vetting and review by committee work in school district U46. It's an extensive process,
>> right? So, you know, by by that proxy noting that um seeking input and support and direction from the experts who are closest to the work and then recommendation is vetted by administration and we bring that to you with evidence to support why we're making that recommendation.
>> No, that is perfect. The underline I was the underlined section specifically was throwing me off that somehow it was changing our process. So, I just I just needed confirmation before I voted. This is to make it inclusive of the process we already have basically by adding the
designate right so that there aren't any forward >> that that is the that is accurate. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Any additional questions? >> Okay. Roll call, please. >> Miss Kerr, >> yes. >> Miss Khan, >> yes.
>> Miss Martin, >> yes. >> Miss Nolan, >> yes. >> Miss Schwarz, >> yes. >> Miss Thomas, >> yes. >> President Owens, >> yes. >> Motion carried. And finally, I bring to you board policy 8 colon30, visitors to and conduct on school property. You may
recall during the last discussion that we had on board policies that we uh reviewed our practices and determined that they did not align with what was previously written in board policy. We do not typically require that visitors return their badges. We require that they comply with checkout procedures
when they are exiting school buildings. And so the additional change that's being recommended here is to comply with our current practices. >> May I have a motion to accept the recommendation of the administration to adopt the amendment to the board of education's policy 830
as outlined in IASB press issue 120 and as suggested by administration. >> So moved. Second. Any questions, discussion? Okay. Roll call, please. >> Miss Kerr, >> yes. >> Miss Khan, >> yes. >> Miss Martin, >> yes. Miss Nolan, >> yes. >> Miss Schwarz,
