we've come a long way since January the last time I was here Um so what you're what you'll see now is um the masonary's been has been completed The steel structure is completed The roof has been installed Um and and roofing is is in
there Um we also have the uh curtain wall system All the framework is in framing is in now We're starting glazing So um and all the interior concrete has been poured So the photos I'm going to take you through um you'll see the progress I have a pointer in case we
want to point I just don't want to don't want to hit you in the eyes or anything with it but but we'll we'll we'll move on from there So uh this is just a reminder Uh so this is the the track So it's eight lane competitive track a football field in the middle Uh there's four basketball
pickleball courts Um so right now as of miday um weather permitting we're going to get in there We're going to put the athletic surface on the track and on the basketball courts We're going to top soil and seed the football field So that's just natural grass Then there's some miscellaneous um landscaping that
goes around the two uh playgrounds um on the south side of Brunell Uh the next one here we go So this is just the floor plan The the one on the left is the first floor of the cube The one on the right the smaller one that's the second floor of the cube So I got that there in case as we're
looking at it you want to know where it is in relationship to the floor plan I can flip back and and show you Um so what we'll do is I'm going I'm going to take you around the outside So there is we'll start Oh it's not even going to work Um we'll start it'll be on the east
side So on the right side of the floor plan then we'll work our way um counterclockwise around and you'll see the photos So this these photos were taken last Thursday So that first one on the left is um standing further away Uh
one thing I want to point out if you look to the left you can barely see it and I apologize I didn't think to get it in there but we've got the new fascia and coping on the face of Bronnell So the the teal you can see that there Um and then you can see the framework
starting for the um curtain wall The rooftop unit has been set in place Um the next photo on the on the right is kind of the north elevation So where you see the green that is the main front entrance to the cube Um that's a little
canopy over that And there's a there's a door excuse me there's a door there The next photo the one on the left is just another angle of the front of the main entrance along with um the the overhang and that faces out towards
Oxley Um and then the next picture to the right is is the same view looking at um the elevation towards Oxley So right now as I said the rooftop the roofing has been completed the rooftop unit So that's for heating and cooling uh moving air in the space that's been done The
curtain wall framing uh is installed and the next 30 days we'll be installing glazing Uh the the stone masonry that goes around the lower part of the of the outside of the building will be we'll begin installing that And then um there's framing on the column So you can
see kind of on that overhang there's a a white column that goes up There's framing and there's steel metal panels that go on that So we're starting that as well The next photo So this is the one on the left is the connector that is standing at the cube looking towards
Bronnell Right now the work completed the roughin mechanical is complete or MEP is complete Uh windows have been installed in that connector the floor the concrete floors in Of course there's flooring that comes on So right now the next steps in that area uh we've got to
install a couple exterior doors and then there's block fill and painting internal that'll that'll be going on in the next 30 days along with framing out uh the hard lid and and the layin ceilings And then of course we have inspections uh
throughout this process And we got in inspections planned in the next 30 days The next two photos the one in the middle and the one on the right is the gross motor room Um so right now the MEP rough in is complete So that's the duct work the the hydronic piping all that
stuff is complete the electrical Um we got some windows that'll be put in in that um in the next um month along with the same block filling and painting ceilings and inspections in that area The next photos this is the first floor
standing by the connector looking out towards the cube Um so there's not a lot of in this picture It's just amazing I was just over there this afternoon where we've come between that picture on Thursday and where we're are today Um so right now they started uh some roughins
there mechanical roughin Um you can see the fire sprinkler lines in there Uh but right now we've also got where the where the bathrooms are and the offices are starting to frame Um so that's the the photo on the on the right is standing in
front of the elevator shaft looking at the same area Then the next one this one is actually looking so this is out by the wall the the front that faces Oxley looking back towards um the internal part of the building Um so that's just
kind of another angle of where we're at with that Um so in the next 30 days we got MEP roughing going in We've got restroom framing um plumbing in and that for the restroom We have the offices that'll be framed out We have the mechanical room that's ongoing now And
then once again inspections when we move now to the second floor So this is looking this is standing out at that same elevation that's out by Oxley looking towards the building So what you're seeing in the left is the framing for what would be
the the storage room in the medium flex space Um the one on the on the right is the same looking just at a different angle at the same space The next photos this is photos of the small flex spaces
So here you can see framing's completed We've got drywall going in Um and like I said that was um that was as of Thursday So concrete floors are all done The wall framing on the second floor is we just have some knee walls put around the perimeter that
that's all that's left for framing in that area So we have roughening that'll be wrapped up in the next couple weeks and we're going to start boarding putting drywall on on the walls Then the final photos we have here this is just on the second floor The
first photo on the left is looking towards what will be the the small restroom on the second floor Um so we'll have MEP Ruffin going in there and then we'll be boarding the walls And then the next picture on the right is actually standing at the bathroom looking out That's where the little kitchenet on the
second floor will be So that's in a nutshell um where we're at right now Um there's a lot going on In fact today we had 40 about 44 people on site working in in you know two store two floors uh
5,000 square foot per floor we had you know 40 people 42 people on site working today So uh we're making great progress We're on schedule Um another side note um that I want to just let you guys know we're working right now um with the
principles at both um Bronnell and uh homes to set up an opportunity for the students to see how what they're learning in their classroom how it applies and what we do every day So um we're working on that In the next two to three weeks we're trying to set up a day
where we can take a half a day with with the Brownell students and give them a little a little uh lesson and tour and just talk about what we do every day Um and then the afternoon or morning whichever however it works would be the home students as well Um and that would
be not only our team and in the in the trade partners out there but also the engineers So from Stantech the engineering and the architects will be here as well to share what they do So it's an opportunity for the students to see how how what they're learning is applied and also to see opportunities
for career paths um if they you know if they choose So that's in a nutshell where we're at Is there any questions that anyone has sure Um McIntyre and and
the one on that side Okay Thank you for the continued updates It's it's really appreciated and it's nice to see you know even the small steps moving forward and we've we have a lot of progress Um so you said that we're on track that we're on schedule Yes And
that in the next three days there's going to be inspections So in the next 30 days we'll have 30 Yes I'm sorry Yes In the next 30 days we'll have mechanical electrical rough in inspections Uh we'll have the the state building inspector will be out next
Thursday Okay Um so yeah we we we schedule these things throughout the process and that's just some of the stuff you know progress as we're moving along Okay All right I appreciate that Yeah Thank you I misheard you and so I was like what do you mean three days and
yeah Um and that's all taken care of That's is there anything that you need from the board or right now no we're it's I just wanted to I'm just happy to be able to share the progress It's been a couple months and you know we've made we've come a long way just in in the last uh little over 60 days since our
last presentation Yeah Thank you Okay Thank you Uh this cube will house um how will let's see the question I want to ask is what is the largest uh capacity room that this place will hold the
largest Uhhuh the central home I don't know the numbers right off the top of my head right now Mr Jones I do Let me go back to the floor plan Okay Yeah Go ahead So so uh with tables in those room uh in those rooms So at each level you
can get about 50 people uh on each level with all the tables and chairs Without the tables and chairs um the capacity of the cube is uh 260 Oh okay
260 But that also includes the office space and the little rooms as well All right So at any given time if you had uh a meeting where it's folks just standing up you can get more in the room but if
there's tables you're limited But it's a 5,000 square foot building Okay Yeah And how many restrooms do you know one upstairs and one down So you you have one one restroom upstairs It's a it's a
it's a single single restroom Okay And then downstairs there's what we call like a gang bathroom Um so there there's I think three toilets in each or two two toilets in a urinal and three toilets I believe I can't really see it but that's
I believe that's what it's showing Okay And what does MEP stand for oh I'm sorry It's mechanical electrical and plumbing I should have said that early on I I I apologize Trusty Perkins Thank you I just wanted to commend you on the work that you all
are doing because uh Trusty Booze and I were over there the other day and we saw you hired at it and uh it it was a good sight to see and uh work is tremendous So I just wanted to take my hat off to you Thank you Yes State
Okay I did almost take your thunder huh you almost That's why I wanted you to wait Good Um far as the windows are they shatterproof those are ones that's shatterproof now that you've installed So they're they are they are not shatterproof I mean if
you throw a stone at them they're not going to break out Okay But they're not you know if you if if a bullet goes through it it's going to go through it But it's not gonna um they're not gonna shatter It's gonna spider and just like a car window so to speak It will Oh
Okay Right It'll crack and Yeah Okay Um as it relates to the students are they go This is just same shame on me Are they going to have hard hats and the belts they get to put those on for when the kids when the kids do the tour with
with the workers That's part of what I need to work out over the next few weeks is how how we can do this Um it all depends on numbers I don't have a ton of hard hats So and that's why I'll be talking with the building inspector next
week to see how we can manage this opportunity And they're usually pretty flexible That's how we way back when with Doyle We we got a a temp for a day so the students could come in So we got a temp occupancy for a day We just had to do certain things And if that's what
we do okay in order to get the students in there um and maintain safety for them that's what we'll do Awesome I would love to see the pictures of that I was gonna try to see if I could come because I want to wear a belt and a hat That's why I said it was personal But good job Thank you so much
Yep I just want this is not necessarily for you Dan but more for uh our team uh to think about and align with the principles is to try and make sure that the day you use is a day that you can get the sixth graders across the
district that's coming to homes and their families to be able to see the campus themselves So try to align that I know that's going to take some busing Yes sir U but I would like to
align that so that the families that are thinking about um you know going going over or coming over to homes and trying to make decisions that they can see what's there So I just wanted to say that out loud so that we can kind of get
that moving and however we can support with that Just Miss Fields let let me know cuz I'll help with making sure that that happens That's all I wanted to say It's bigger than just it is I who's already there
Yes Right You want to think about who's not there and who's who's coming over there to our seven sixth seventh and eighth grade at homes So I want to make sure that we we capture those students and the students that are leaving
Netherut at sixth grade going to middle school We want to capture those moments so they can see where you know what the future holds for them Okay Yes sir I like it Thank you very much Good job Thank you

300 students on a case load for one person someone's not going to be served So I'm just not in support of one person doing all of this That's that's too much of a lift and an ask for one person And especially in high school you you
have college entry and letters and scholarships It's it's a lot going on And I just want our students to receive the best support that they can and I just think that's too much for one person That's it Thank you Is there any
more discussions yes Trust the um Yes I I am in support of it It's not the the most ideal for our students That is true But it's you know in accordance with um uh you know an agreement with our teachers It's the best we can do with the shortages that
we have We are certainly working to make sure that we have more staff more certified teachers It's an ongoing struggle and this is just part of that struggle Um and so I I agree with Trusty Reford that I would you know our
students deserve and need more and better services um you know this is this is our hands are tied what with um you know is coming down from us from the federal government from the state from the department of education um and so

Thank you board president Thank you for interrupting your meeting Oh no no that was worthwhile It was a long time coming Board members in your package is Vartekch monthly update for March for March Do any board member have
any questions seeing no further question the board of education will hold its next meeting on Wednesday May 14 Remarks I'm going to do that if you let me do it this way uh for March May 14 2025 at 6:30 at X at ALA Now we will have
remarks Okay The next board meeting will be held next Wednesday May 14th at 6:30 at ALA Now we will have comments and remarks from the board
Madam Chair Yes Um sounds like Netherkut is um a big issue and um I wanted to be on the record As channel 12 stated October of 2023 this board decided that
Netherut would be repurposed because we are in a deficit and we all as a board agreed to repurpose Nethercut in 2023 And it was also stated that um community
forms will be put would be scheduled for the family so they can know about the transition And it seems like this year a couple of those forms were cancelled due to the weather And so it kind of
um I was kind of confused as the all of a suddeness that this just came up but this was October of 2023 and is now April of 2025 I'm not sure where the
communication breakdown occurred but however this these board meetings are recorded We also have minutes and they are made available to the public So for me to hear that there's some
confusion I'm confused because we understand that it may not be what individuals need to hear but however we as a board we have to downsize to meet what our budget can meet We all understand that there has
been a drastic decrease in enrollment and therefore it's not feasible for us to carry all these buildings opened and to travel less than three miles to another school That also shows you that
we have several schools in less than a 10 mile radius and we would not be doing this district justice if we continue to operate when we know that we do not have the revenue to maintain that Let me
apologize to anyone that receives some misinformation that the building was going to remain open It's going to be repurposed This is the last year of Netherkut as Netherkut but it will be repurposed This entire board voted to
repurpose it in October of 2023 I just really want to um definitely say that And um the building is only at 63% capacity So those um families who have an opportunity to transition over to
Freeman which is less than 3 miles As a matter of fact I said it's 2.5 miles away So as a board we we have to make the tough decisions and that's why you all elected us to make the tough decisions and we're going to stand by
the decisions that we make We are definitely here to make sure the transition is as smooth as possible And we also ask you be honest with us have a conversation If you need more support than what's been given please by all means ask for it Thank you Is there any
more comments from the board yep I would just like to say openly um as as the superintendent of Flint Community Schools I charge our staff at Netherut to ensure that you are positively supporting and support staff
um the district's vision and support staff and partners that you're positively supporting Uh sometimes we hurt ourselves um with transitions and we add uh emotional issues that should not be
there uh that we're feeling about transition We give that off to children So I say this openly on purpose uh so that the community understands that we're charging our staff as well as ourselves to make this as smooth as
possible for our families So I I speak openly to charge all of our staff our principal um and our partners to ensure that we are giving a positive um front to this work so that our
scholars can have a smooth transition over to uh Freeman Elementary School So I just wanted to make sure that I stated that um board president So thank you Thank you very much I just want to um thank the people that
was at Nether Cut last night Um I appreciate the work that the staff put in and comforting those parents There's still some questions out there um that you might have concerns about Uh Superintendent Jones is available They
made themsel available We're still getting emails and things like that I recommend that I just send them over there to the staff because they have a process of how they're going to do that Um and that just like with anything you know that placement some of those kids
home from kindergarten and so it's a lot of sensitivity there but I think you guys did a great job uh answering their questions Uh I really was impressed about it Uh the board I think we had four board members there Trustee King
Perkins and Linda Boos And I I think that it was a great job Thank you Seeing no further comments from the board this board is adjourned
at 7:17 Yeah it's been a long week
