Welcome to all of our visitors today. Um, we will be looking for a motion for approval of the agenda. Um

2
00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:36.880
yeah, it's the only question that I had was um maybe and maybe we can just have a little bit of discussion when we get to that point on um on 8.1 just why that's a was a three-year extended leave

3
00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:53.800
versus um the other option. And there's probably a good explanation. I'm sure there's a good explanation for that. I just don't have that info right away. Does everybody feel like they got enough time to look over the 8.2 and 8.3?

4
00:00:55.360 --> 00:01:19.040
>> So, it was 8.3 I read last night, right? Yeah, that was the one that was sent yesterday. >> Earlier this morning. The other one I I didn't get a chance to read prior to make a motion to approve the agenda.

5
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:37.360
One second. >> All right. Motion and a second uh to approve the agenda. Is there any further discussion? Hearing none. All those in favor signify by saying I. >> I. All oppose. Same sign. Motion

>> All oppose same sign. 4.0 public comments. All right. 5.0 st student staff and constituent reports. Um we will start with our high school student council. Um, this is

9
00:03:05.040 --> 00:03:38.200
a recap of all the stuff we've been doing over the past couple months for student council. >> Who are you? >> No, I am no. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. Sorry.

10
00:03:38.239 --> 00:03:54.480
>> Yep. Okay. Here. >> I take it over again. >> Take it back. >> Take it back. >> Okay. We had our blood drive on March 11th and before this we had a meeting with Katie from Vital. uh she showed us a video that was just

11
00:03:54.480 --> 00:04:11.599
kind of talking about more ways like to get our like school and the staff included on this and we just like we had we've had like problems in the past not being able to fill out all the slots and stuff but she gave us more ways and we

12
00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:28.320
came like on Friday a bunch we went to ramp ups and shared like what we learned from that and then we were able to fill out all 47 of our slots and 30 people. 38 people were able to donate and 40 blood products were collected. Uh 10

13
00:04:28.320 --> 00:04:48.080
people volunteered for the first time and all donors got free t-shirts and cookies. So, okay. We also had our spring summit on March 18th. We went to East Grand Forest for that and we had three Boston High

14
00:04:48.080 --> 00:05:01.520
School students running for positions on the Northwest Division board. All three got voted on as Lily Nelson as president, Emma Heler as secretary, and Addison as representative. So Lillian is the president. So that means we have to

15
00:05:01.520 --> 00:05:23.440
host the fall summit coming in 2026. and the three of them will be attending a planning meeting on the 29th just to go over the new activities for the next fall. Okay. And then um we hosted a mental

16
00:05:23.440 --> 00:05:38.080
health day on March 19th for half the day and we split all the kids into classrooms based on what they signed up for. So Lilia Nelson sent like a signup sheet or something that they could pick from and you could do a watching movie

17
00:05:38.080 --> 00:05:54.479
board/card games, computer games and gym time. Uh this came out as a great success as all the kids seem to have like a lot of fun and then it gave students an opportunity to recharge after a long school year which was really needed. Uh

18
00:05:54.479 --> 00:06:11.919
this Sunday was also allowed students to connect with more people as each room held a mixture of ages and grades. Uh that day was also free cone day. So most of the teachers took their class over to Dairy Queen and let them get their free cone was very nice.

19
00:06:11.919 --> 00:06:27.520
>> Um the uh after the mental health day that day we dance which we past couple years. Uh we had a great turnout. Uh, fun thing we added was that anybody that donated blood got into the dance for free. Um, we also did our usual bring a

20
00:06:27.520 --> 00:06:48.880
food shelf item get in for half price. We collected two large boxes of food shelf donations that we brought to Lo and Fishes a few weeks ago. Huge thanks to Nord for donating over again this year. And then looking ahead to next year, um

21
00:06:48.880 --> 00:07:04.400
we will be posting the 2627 student council applications in the next few weeks. So then people who haven't been on student council, they can have the opportunity to try to get on to it. Um we'll also be doing our student council information booths before school next

22
00:07:04.400 --> 00:07:20.319
week. We started this last year so then people kind of knew what was going on and what's what's it about to be in student council and what you all can do and all the opportunities you can take. Um and this will help us get more

23
00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:40.160
students involved and interested in filling out an application. Is >> that it? >> That's it. >> Any questions? Have we maybe you guys know maybe you have to phone a friend but have we had

24
00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:57.160
three officers before? >> No, I don't think so. >> Seems pretty impressive. >> Very seven total. >> Okay. You said we have to host. I think we get to host. >> Yeah. >> Semantics, but >> yeah.

25
00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:37.399
>> THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT, elementary student leaders, the floor is yours. >> Elementary student, please. >> My name is Hel. My name is Marino O'Shea. >> My name is Mason Daniel. And we are all in sixth grade.

26
00:08:37.680 --> 00:08:57.600
>> Our positive performance topic for this month is gratitude. >> Gratitude means taking the time to stop and notice all the good things in your life. >> This is the poster that you'll find in our hallways or to know a kid who already got one at the school.

27
00:08:57.600 --> 00:09:21.839
Gratitude also means feeling thankful for the things in our lives. >> We can be thankful for our family, our friends, our pets, our home, even a sunny day, and more. >> We gave the teachers and students a positive pickle bar so they can reach in

28
00:09:21.839 --> 00:09:40.640
and grab a pickle to start every morning. Write a positive message to practice gratitude. >> That is one of the positive pickles. And here is another positive pickle. This is what the front will look like. This is what the inside was. And one of the quotes is, "My kindness helps like the

29
00:09:40.640 --> 00:10:00.640
way for others." That is the jar that we gave. This is also the jar. In the jar, they got 60 pickles, a bracelet, and this is the front side of the bracelet. And then the back says, "Always around to remind you,

30
00:10:00.640 --> 00:10:20.079
you're a big deal." And so every day they can open it up, grab this picker, grab one out, read it, and then put it on. So it's kind of like a safe. The teacher's response is, "Love this.

31
00:10:20.079 --> 00:10:35.920
Love this idea. So fun. I want to have a new student draw out one every day and take it home." What my teacher does, Mrs. Gort, she takes one out and puts it on one of those stands. >> What my teacher, Mr. Wolf, does it take

32
00:10:35.920 --> 00:10:59.720
out five a day and then he'll read them all and then he'll put it on the stand. We got a generous donation. So, here is what we're going to do with the >> We are going to have a freeze day Friday party on Friday, May 1st.

33
00:11:00.560 --> 00:11:19.519
What a freezy Friday party is. A freezy Friday party is when you buy freezies for the whole school and give them to the students at recess. >> The freezy Friday plan is we are going to go to the store and buy a lot of freezies. Then we are going to use the tree trolley to bring the fuses to the

34
00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:45.360
playground. We are going to have people by the tree trolley to top to cut off the tops of the fuses. Then the student leaders are going to pass out the fuses to the kids on the playground. >> We have one more fun thing to play. >> Spring dress up days. We the best of things that we have are

35
00:11:45.360 --> 00:12:04.959
rainbow day, lemonade day, beach day, day, and heat day. This is the poster that you'll find around the school and it is May 4th through 8th. >> Thank you.

36
00:12:04.959 --> 00:12:43.160
>> Does anybody have any questions? I think last Friday was freezing Friday day. >> Hopefully we get some warm weather on freezy Friday. >> All right. Thank you guys. 5.3 Sarah Stein Runner

37
00:12:43.440 --> 00:13:05.360
>> guys want to take our kids on a little trip. I mean it's pretty epic. Um, I want to take this year's um this year's eighth and ninth letters to Italy

38
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:23.200
and Greece in the summer of 2028, so a little over two years from now. Um, it's a I' I've taken this trip before. I took 26 students in five room in 2017. And it was I I traveled twice with students um

39
00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:40.160
in 2013, it was a it was great. Um but when I took this tour in 2017, it was just so much better. It was there's literally nothing I would change about it. Um we would fly into Rome um one day

40
00:13:40.160 --> 00:13:55.920
one. Day two it just they kind of hit the ground running. We go to Spanish Steps, Trevy Fountain, the Pantheon, um, Piaza Nona, just lots of action on that first day to um, keeping them on their feet with jet leg. Um, the next day is

41
00:13:55.920 --> 00:14:13.279
the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and then the following day, I was really happy to see that they plan an entire day at the Vatican. So, we do Vatican Museum, Cistine Chapel, St. Peter's Basilica, that type of thing. Um, and then the following day we leave Rome, go a little

42
00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:30.399
bit south along the coast of the Sarrento region where we go out to um the island of Capri. It's this spectacularly beautiful little island. Um, and we'll go on a little boat that goes into some grotto there. Um, it's very fond, very beautiful. Um, and then

43
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:47.760
we go into Pompei. Um, so we see the ruins there that were covered in ashes by Mount Vuvius a couple thousand years ago. It's pretty amazing. Um, and then we take an overnight ferry over to Petras in um in Greece where we

44
00:14:47.760 --> 00:15:04.880
go to Delelfi. Um, it's a very important archaeological site to Greek culture, Greek civilization there. Um, and then we go into Athens and have a Greek dinner in the um, the Placa, which is the it's kind of the ancient city center

45
00:15:04.880 --> 00:15:21.360
there. Um, and then they do a treasure hunt there, which is very fun for the kids. And then I wanted to do the um, Greek island excursion um, extension onto it. We did that in 2017 where we kind of essentially go on an island hop.

46
00:15:21.360 --> 00:15:38.320
Um, we go to Mkos, we go to Santorini. Santorini is where those little white buildings are built into the side of the cliff with the blue domes. Um, Patmos Island where we visit the monastery of St. John, which is a biblical um site, very important biblical site. And then

47
00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:55.199
the island of Cree with the palace of Nos there for Menow and culture. And then we end with our last day in Athens for the Parthonon and um the temple of Athena Nikke Olympic sites Athens citywalk before

48
00:15:55.199 --> 00:16:18.720
coming home. Um there any questions on the itinerary there at all? Pretty amazing. Um, the reason why I planned it out two years is it gets um gives the families time to put the funds together. It is

49
00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:36.560
quoted at $6,119. That is with the $300 early registration fee. um that fee is it would go up $300 after May 21st, I believe it is. Um if you go on the monthly payment p plan,

50
00:16:36.560 --> 00:16:53.199
that is $242 a month. Um yeah, that's kind of the cost of it. Um any questions at all? >> Open to home all kids. Um, this year's eighth and nth graders who have taken

51
00:16:53.199 --> 00:17:09.600
art one, that would be before their summer their junior and senior year. I do not want to travel with graduated figures. >> Fair. >> Been there, done that. >> How many students are you anticipating?

52
00:17:09.600 --> 00:17:26.799
Have you taken the rough? I'm sure >> I've talked to some ninth graders. Of course, they're excited about it. Um, but I had 26 in 2017. But I don't I don't know don't know what to anticipate. The cost is staff time. I think was about 5,700. I was actually

53
00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:49.039
surprised that it hadn't gone up more than what it was or what it had. Um >> was like the same last time. >> It's actually a day longer. >> What support do you need from the school? I mean, I think the only thing that I've

54
00:17:49.039 --> 00:18:05.760
asked for in the past and that I'm anticipating now is just busing to Minneapolis to the airport >> to >> the families ended up actually take deciding to um do a chartered bus last time. I don't know if that will be the

55
00:18:05.760 --> 00:18:24.400
case but in 2017 we ended up taking what >> natural natural >> what's this piece where it says earn high school credit that >> is anything you've ever explored >> I have not I have not my understanding

56
00:18:24.400 --> 00:18:42.960
is it is after the trip but that's about all I know about it >> I had a question about the the Spanish trip. I and I did talk to Margarite about it. Um she is not going to ask for another trip or really even start

57
00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:58.720
thinking about another trip until she gets back from the one she's taking in um November. Um you know, if this were approved and she were to be taking that, they'd be four and a half months apart. Um but I don't know if that's that's an

58
00:18:58.720 --> 00:19:15.600
issue, but I just wanted to be transparent about that that Margarine is is planning on probably taking another trip that November as well. Um, but I I want to go in the summer. I am not wanting to go during the school year. So, they will always be trips that

59
00:19:15.600 --> 00:19:33.200
are close together. >> You work did you work with World's Drag last time? >> No, actually I went with I was with EF and I contacted them um this time. they had drastically changed the um the island cruise at the end and I that was

60
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:49.360
the one part that I absolutely did not want to change because I was just so pleasantly surprised by it. So then I kind of went back and forth between EF and um World Strides and their island adventure was just aligned much more closely and EF ended

61
00:19:49.360 --> 00:20:05.919
up being closer to that $7,000 mark. I I don't know anything. I'm not sure. >> We have they have merged with explorica and we have gone with explor. Yeah. But they they are combined now.

62
00:20:05.919 --> 00:20:25.919
>> That was the last time they >> I I don't know. I think it was I think it was >> that the one before that when this would have been >> I don't know that >> I did talk to somebody that had actually

63
00:20:25.919 --> 00:20:45.440
switched from um to and was happy with the transition essentially six of one half a dozen of the other. I appreciate your thoughtfulness as far as two years in advance for purposes. >> Yeah.

64
00:20:45.440 --> 00:21:01.600
>> And um it's unique going during the summer as well. And I believe it's a tremendous opportunity for for anybody that can like take advantage. >> It's like a bucket list trip right here. >> Well, it it does end up being the

65
00:21:01.600 --> 00:21:19.919
triple. It does. >> Just a little bum. >> It's amazing. It's an amazing trip. I I really there were I came back from that one and I I said there there is nothing I could change about that trip. It was really really perfect. It was

66
00:21:19.919 --> 00:21:35.919
just fast enough that they had it down. This this sounds almost exactly like it. And in talking with world strides, it sounds like it. >> So the students that would be going have already completed art fun. >> I would like them to be yes completed.

67
00:21:35.919 --> 00:22:20.159
in the next two years or right now they are >> in the next two years. >> In the next two years >> many of I anticipate many of them. >> Okay. Cool. >> Sounds really exciting. >> Second. The only further discussion I

68
00:22:20.159 --> 00:22:36.880
have is my kids won't be old enough, so you got to do another one at some point. So, >> yes. Um, any other further discussion? Hearing none, all those in favor signify by saying I. >> I. All post saying sign.

69
00:22:36.880 --> 00:22:54.720
>> That's so much fun. >> Thank you. >> All right. >> So, moving into 6.0, finance. Uh, 6.1 accept not accept donations to the school district. Um as in previous

70
00:22:54.720 --> 00:23:12.080
meetings um we have them listed as um below and we'll approve them as one. Look like we have a donation from over Nelson to the book fair and from the foster alliance for some health supplies

71
00:23:12.080 --> 00:23:31.760
that for the health class. >> I am not sure. >> I'll make a motion to approve the donations. Second >> motion and a second. Is there any further discussion? Hearing none, we'll have a roll call vote. Director Dupong,

72
00:23:31.760 --> 00:23:46.799
>> yes. >> Director Christian, >> yes. >> Dr. Marcus, >> yes. >> Director Munter, >> yes. >> Director Nelson, >> yes. >> Director, yes. All right, 7.0 reports. We'll start with the elementary principal report.

73
00:23:46.799 --> 00:24:03.280
>> Yeah. Uh item number one, you can see we're up uh four students K through six and overall we're up uh what eight students um from the last from last month which is a good thing. And actually

74
00:24:03.280 --> 00:24:18.240
we're starting another student uh Wednesday of this week. We can add one more. It's >> the best fundraiser we have. >> Yes. Yeah. Any questions on enrollment day? Okay, this

75
00:24:18.240 --> 00:24:34.799
is an update on MCA testing. Uh we're on the tail end of our testing. We'll complete uh hopefully by the end of next week and then we'll have an opportunity for any makeup right at the end of May. But so far so good in the area of testing. Uh one thing to note, usually

76
00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:52.640
we can get on demand reports basically instant scores uh and we have over the past years. of going from MCA3 to MCA4 in reading this year. Last year it was science. Uh you're not able to get those on demand reports or scores

77
00:24:52.640 --> 00:25:09.120
after they're done testing. We are able to do that with math. And what I mean by that, it's usually an hour after they test that you can get a preliminary result. Um so uh so far things are looking looking really good. So, we'll

78
00:25:09.120 --> 00:25:24.240
continue to hope uh that we can just finish strong. Uh big thank you out to the teachers. They put in a lot of time and effort in this. Um I wish I could tell them not to be so stressed about it because I am not stressed about it because that mean that's one one moment

79
00:25:24.240 --> 00:25:40.080
in time I try to encourage them look at growth from the beginning to where they're at now with each student and but that's what the public gets to hear and see. So, but uh they're doing a great job. So, thank you to all the students and staff for all their hard work and

80
00:25:40.080 --> 00:25:54.880
we'll finish strong here in the next couple weeks. We also have some uh fast bridge testing that will take place. Actually, the windows open now. I didn't have that part of my report, but that's another testing update. That's our our

81
00:25:54.880 --> 00:26:11.279
district uh assessment tool that we use FastBridge in the areas of reading and math. So, we are on a our fourth benchmark test. So we'll complete that uh over the course of the next four weeks. Um that's is good data for us to use looking at instruction, looking at

82
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:26.880
curriculum. Um valuable stuff and then also and uh probably most uses for interventions. So that was a quick testing update. I'd like to thank uh the third graders for their musical. Um if any of you attended

83
00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:43.919
uh this year's musical, those rats, it was April 7th, 8th, and 9th. Um, big thank you to Mrs. K. Um, students were great. Uh, it was a great performance they put on. They put on three shows, I believe. Uh, I think it was four. Can't

84
00:26:43.919 --> 00:26:59.279
remember off the top of my head. I know I was on every one of them, but uh, it they do a great job in such a short amount of time and a lot of that is a credit to Mrs. K, uh, the students, but also the classroom teachers involved. It's a commitment. when stuff like that

85
00:26:59.279 --> 00:27:16.240
goes on, there's practices, interruptions of the schedule. Um, but it was great. It was a great performance. Uh, item number four, we had April 14th staff in service and and that was the same for the elementary and high school.

86
00:27:16.240 --> 00:27:32.799
So, it's attached there if you want to under there. Uh, some valuable time uh working in small groups with certain individuals, certain staff. Um it also provided time for our paras to uh complete their second session of literacy training. That's a part of

87
00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:48.960
readact. Every par had had to complete that training. It's eight hours. So we had the second session of four hours. They completed it. Uh we have a few that need to do some uh makeup because they weren't able to attend. But we'll complete that uh here in the next month.

88
00:27:48.960 --> 00:28:04.960
Um it was just a good day. It's always good to have time to sit uh I know Mr. Jarski and I worked with our title teachers and high school English and some support staff in regards to CAP

89
00:28:04.960 --> 00:28:20.960
read basics. What that is is a a testing tool screening tool for dyslexia. That is a requirement of the read act which we've implemented and we'll be testing that in the next month. So, a lot of

90
00:28:20.960 --> 00:28:37.279
testing going on. Um, other than that, I have item number five, important dates. One error there. If you go down the bat and choir, it's April 28th, not May 28th. Uh, but you can see the list of things that are

91
00:28:37.279 --> 00:28:53.919
going on. This is just a small snippet of what's going on. I try to include what's going on from our April leading to May. Um, but a lot of big things going on. Um, and the last one, May 19th, uh, is our sixth grade promotion.

92
00:28:53.919 --> 00:29:11.120
And I'm looking for a volunteer, Alison. >> Yes. Yes. >> Okay. I was going to say, you got this one. I got the next two. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Well, you can see there we have uh our Friday school ends uh this coming

93
00:29:11.120 --> 00:29:26.720
Friday. We had a state statewide tornado drill last Thursday. Um band choir concert, elementary track and field, sixth grade farm safety. Very busy month coming up for sixth grade, but a lot of

94
00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:45.039
exciting things. Then sixth grade class trip, and then yeah, our sixth grade promotion. So I will follow up on all these events at our main meeting. Any questions? Thank you.

95
00:29:45.039 --> 00:30:00.080
>> All right. High school principal report. Mr. Darkski. >> Uh starting out of course with the attendance report. You see we're down one student from last month. Probably uh obviously with just a month

96
00:30:00.080 --> 00:30:15.600
left to go here, I would imagine our members will stay where they're at. Um so congratulations. Obviously, our knowledgeable team, they are back-to-back state champions. Um, I mean, kudos to them as well as, of

97
00:30:15.600 --> 00:30:30.720
course, the coaches. You know, our kids put a lot of time in even in the offseason with prepping for knowledge bowl and so obviously they went to the state tournament on a mission. So, uh, speech team, they were crowned

98
00:30:30.720 --> 00:30:47.520
subsection champions and then they ended up finishing second in the section overall. uh FFA members are off to state competition. They left yesterday and there is I I counted correctly I think 32 of them.

99
00:30:47.520 --> 00:31:03.039
So a lot of representation in in the spring tournament time on the testing uh MCA testing again we will be wrapping that up within the last week of the month here. Um most of that

100
00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:21.279
is moving along as it should be. Uh that last week of the month is typically catching those kids who um maybe still have a little bit of testing they needed to do because of maybe being absent or what have you. So but uh just want to give some kudos to Kathy Carlen because

101
00:31:21.279 --> 00:31:37.679
as you know she is the one that monitors those tests during our test time. Uh ACT testing bit of a typo in there. We were supposed to host that on Tuesday this week. Um because of our kids being in FFA and

102
00:31:37.679 --> 00:31:54.320
such, we pushed that into Thursday. And so there's 18 juniors that are registered to take the ACT. And then as Dan mentioned, the fast bridge, uh that window is also open again. And so up here at the high school, Taylor will be using it for the

103
00:31:54.320 --> 00:32:11.760
uh English courses 9 through 11. And then Jonathan is also going to start using it in his freshman uh algebra class as well. So uh it's one of those things where it's not costing the district any additional money because we've already paid for the seat uh for

104
00:32:11.760 --> 00:32:30.080
those freshman kids in English. So just transfers over. So he's wanting to utilize it from the standpoint of again interventions and such. Um, as far as our master schedule, some of the progress being made there. Um, it's taken a little bit of time just

105
00:32:30.080 --> 00:32:44.960
because of some of the, you know, impact of chasing of changing of puh personnel and such. But I think we've kind of reached a point of preliminary schedule and we're just going to kind of run it through and see through synergy. you can see like how

106
00:32:44.960 --> 00:33:00.799
accurate it's going to be, how many uh kids would be displaced if you didn't, you know, because of the the way all the classes align and such. So, trial and error, but uh this year is the first year that I've really been active with Becky and and putting that together and

107
00:33:00.799 --> 00:33:17.760
just watching how she does that. And uh it is amazing to watch her do that work because I would suggest something and she's like, "Yep, that would work." work and then the next time I'd suggest something, she'd be like, "No, because that's going to impact way over here and how that's going to go." And I mean, she

108
00:33:17.760 --> 00:33:34.960
just she's thinking four steps ahead and I'm trying to take a baby step with it. So, she just does a very good job with that master schedule. Um, some of the upcoming events and items, uh, representative from Minnesota School Safety will be here on Wednesday.

109
00:33:34.960 --> 00:33:49.760
So, Dan and I will meet with her. she will go through both of our buildings and do a safety audit. And so we'll have some of that information report back. Uh we'll report that back immediately to Mr. South of course and then to the

110
00:33:49.760 --> 00:34:05.360
board in May. Uh the high school we are hosting the uh honor band and choir and that's this coming Friday the 24th. Uh if you remember back three years ago, we were the host site of that and so it's

111
00:34:05.360 --> 00:34:21.119
the selected members from the area schools uh both band and choir. So um the one thing that uh we just pinned down that's not noted on here is also Friday morning we'll do a pep fest for

112
00:34:21.119 --> 00:34:37.119
speech uh knowledge bowl and FFA. So, we'll get that rolling about 8:30 and try and get that finished up shortly after 9 so that as these students from other school districts are arriving, we can roll into that. Academic banquet

113
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:54.079
is set for Monday the 27th and then Saturday, May 2nd is prom. >> Did you make the assignments board members properly yet >> for for prom? Yeah. Somebody's got to take my spot this year. It's uh I think that's the way it works.

114
00:34:54.079 --> 00:35:10.800
anybody who's not here. >> So, and then lastly, just a couple of student spotlights. I want to congratulate Anna and Edward. As you can see, she took first out of 38 uh in competition for the drawing category. They were at a competition over in

115
00:35:10.800 --> 00:35:26.320
Bumiji a couple weeks back. And then lastly, I've listed uh how our top candidates finished out with the uh section speech tournament that we hosted here on the 14th. We got quite a few students going out to

116
00:35:26.320 --> 00:35:49.680
uh say speech questions. >> All right. Thank you. >> All right. Superintendent. >> Yeah. New bus has arrived. 14 passenger mini bus uh has arrived and um it's um

117
00:35:49.680 --> 00:36:05.680
>> comfy. Works good. >> Has it been in use? Right. Okay. Um, so that's a great addition to our fleet of vehicles that we have at our disposal. Um, on that note of of busing, uh, we have some major concern um, regarding

118
00:36:05.680 --> 00:36:23.359
next year staffing of our, as you know, we have six bus routes. Two of them are, um, provided to us by Stein busing. Now, we just had some real loose introductory discussions about what would it mean and and more importantly or as importantly,

119
00:36:23.359 --> 00:36:39.760
what would it cost um if if a company like Stein would take it over if we were to go in that and and this was just for us to get some ideas and they're going to throw some some ideas back to us. If we were to decide to further this

120
00:36:39.760 --> 00:36:55.119
discussion, um believe strongly that we would would bid this out because there are some other providers out there as well besides Stein. Um but not sure yet. Um you know where your comfort is where we just want to be able to provide you some

121
00:36:55.119 --> 00:37:11.839
scenarios. Um and really what's driving this more than anything is our concern for us to be able to staff our needs next year with our own people. Um Jake and I uh shared the podium uh last t Thursday

122
00:37:11.839 --> 00:37:28.160
week ago tomorrow I guess uh gave a staff update um regarding a number of things there that you see uh in front of you. Um in the packet is my letter of resignation for uh to be acted on tonight. Um, I'm under contract to the

123
00:37:28.160 --> 00:37:43.200
30th of June and plan to honor that unless you uh choose to to do something different with the new person coming on. I'm open to any discussion regarding that. Um, I will not probably be working all those days, um, take some vacation,

124
00:37:43.200 --> 00:38:00.000
etc., but will be available to, uh, act on behalf of the district with any signatures or official duties that would need to be done by a superintendent. And I think by statute, not sure on the transition piece, but I think by statute, the district is

125
00:38:00.000 --> 00:38:16.000
mandated to have a um superintendent on file. Um and I'd be willing and wanting to stay and honor my contract. Um we are working with the service co-op on insurance. Um preliminary is that our

126
00:38:16.000 --> 00:38:32.800
insurance costs are going to go up. We're looking at some different options there for us. Uh everyone's insurance is going up. And um the the co-op is helping us to look at what options we have to keep the up as low as possible.

127
00:38:32.800 --> 00:38:48.960
Um which is which is incredible the costs associated with insurance right now. And then just um maybe just noteworthy more than anything um I've had people reach out

128
00:38:48.960 --> 00:39:06.240
about our superintendent position and there seems to be some genuine interest of people. I know that the position now is posted and officially that will come through that, but I can tell you unofficially that I've had conversations with a few people and um they're good

129
00:39:06.240 --> 00:39:23.440
people and um they seem to have a sincere interest um in pursuing the position. So, that's good news. That's all I have. question. So, what what percentage increase we

130
00:39:23.440 --> 00:39:41.000
talking about for insurance? >> We haven't really gotten that yet. Um, but it's >> it's going to be >> large increase. >> Well, I mean, last year we were 18, right? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Um, and >> this for health insurance, >> correct? Y.

131
00:39:41.680 --> 00:39:56.480
>> Yeah. So I just wonder at what point do we just here's staff here here here's the portion selfinsure if you want to

132
00:39:56.480 --> 00:40:13.440
>> I don't know that's a huge chunk of money that >> oh my gosh yeah >> keeps need to be increased every single year >> so they spoke just generally at a at a insurance meeting did did you attend >> I believe so if you're talking about the same one yeah Yeah,

133
00:40:13.440 --> 00:40:28.800
>> April and Maddie attended where the service co-op just spoke in more generalities, but I mean they without being specific, they said everybody's insurance is going to be going up

134
00:40:28.800 --> 00:40:44.320
and you know it's all based on your use or your claims. So if you're a district that has a year of higher claims and your probably your percentage is going to be higher. >> So I don't know how insurance works.

135
00:40:44.320 --> 00:40:58.640
Isn't insurance supposed to protect you against the claims? >> Right. >> Yeah. >> But if you have them then they charge you more. >> Yeah. >> Really like you to pay the premiums and never use it. >> As long as everybody raises it, they're fine. >> Yeah.

136
00:40:58.640 --> 00:41:19.119
>> So, but we'll have more to come on that. Any other questions, Mr. S? Moving down into 8.0 personnel. So 8.1 is approved not approved threeear extended leave of absence. >> I can speak to that. I'd be happy to speak to that and and there was no

137
00:41:19.119 --> 00:41:35.280
intention to hoodwink anybody. Um so the the personnel committee uh saw that the proposals from the individuals that we potentially are going to approve tonight for the separation agreements. Um and in that particular

138
00:41:35.280 --> 00:41:50.720
um agreement for Kristen Perry um the new retirement rule is 60 at least 60 years of age and at least 30 years of service. So her um Kristen currently has 29 years of service and so her request to the

139
00:41:50.720 --> 00:42:06.240
district was in essence to and I'll put in air quotes by her last year of service to get her to 30 years in order for TR to accept that purchase on behalf of Kristen. She has to still be a part

140
00:42:06.240 --> 00:42:22.240
of the school district. She cannot be retired into somebody on the street that we're buying this for. So she has to be still involved with TRA, teachers retirement. So to do that in essence, what she's getting would or what she needs to have

141
00:42:22.240 --> 00:42:39.119
is be on leave of absence to get that 30th year. So next year would be a year leave of absence for her. at the end of next year is when she would officially retire and begin to draw her uh well, she can draw her retirement anytime

142
00:42:39.119 --> 00:42:56.560
after her 30th year and age 60. I'm not going to suggest tonight that I know her age, but I do, but I'm not going to tell you. So, that'll be up to her to decide when she begins to draw, but she will qualify because she'll have 30 years of service. Sure. >> So, that's the need for the leave. So,

143
00:42:56.560 --> 00:43:11.280
we would what we're requesting tonight and what we're recommending tonight is that we approve approve the leave and it says a three-year leave. I'm not trying to put Matty on the spot, but there is a requirement by TRA that

144
00:43:11.280 --> 00:43:31.040
the leave is up to three years and within that three years, any employee has option to retire. The agreements that we've put in place at the beest of our attorney assures that after that year by signing

145
00:43:31.040 --> 00:43:48.560
it, Kristen has agreed to retire at the end of next year, but that she would not seek to come back to the district at the end of next year. All that's legally in place with a couple documents. Um, so that's the need

146
00:43:48.560 --> 00:44:06.640
for the leave of absence and I apologize for not bringing you more up to speed on that prior to tonight's meeting. Um, we were literally working on language because we certainly want to protect Kristen as well and so that there's no mishap with TRA. TRA is very particular

147
00:44:06.640 --> 00:44:23.359
on how things happen. Uh the good news is our attorney at Peton um is up on it as well and she was able to make sure that all the documents made sense and aligned to protect both the district and to protect Christian's ability to

148
00:44:23.359 --> 00:44:39.440
retire. >> So this is I think last month at this meeting you had kind of mentioned that she was working with some TR reps and we were working with and this is kind of what came up. >> This is what came of it. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah.

149
00:44:39.440 --> 00:44:54.800
And the general separation >> agreed >> proposal or that Christian brought and what the and and what the um what the personnel committee agreed to is still intact. >> Sure. >> Yeah.

150
00:44:54.800 --> 00:45:09.920
>> This piece allow her to do what she want >> and that'll be represented in 8.2. So yeah. >> Okay. >> All right. So if there's comfort with that, I would ask that that be a motion

151
00:45:09.920 --> 00:45:33.119
tonight. >> Make a motion to approve the threeear extended leave of absence for Christ. >> I'll second. >> All right. Have a motion and a second on the floor. Is there any further discussion

152
00:45:33.119 --> 00:45:48.720
regarding that three-year extended leave of absence? All right. So, be another roll call vote. Director Dupon, >> yes. >> Director Christristen, >> yes. >> Director Marcus, >> yes. >> Dr. Munter, >> yes. >> Director Nelson, >> yes. >> Dr. Bosler,

153
00:45:48.720 --> 00:46:03.040
>> yes. >> Um, just point of information there, Chair, Mr. Chair, the um there's a document that needs to be signed tonight as well on behalf of the school district. >> Okay. And they will be in the other room. I left all of them.

154
00:46:03.040 --> 00:46:20.000
>> They're all in the cop. There's multiple copies. So everybody has to be original signatures. So everybody gets a copy. >> Gotcha. >> Yep. >> Okay. All right. 8.2. Um, approve not approve the separation for Christian Perry High

155
00:46:20.000 --> 00:46:39.280
School science teacher. Again, I might be repeating myself and I'll be very brief, but um how how we came to this for the rest of the board that wasn't on the personnel committee is I put out an email to all staff saying if you have interest in

156
00:46:39.280 --> 00:46:55.599
separating from the district, please contact me. That was probably February, well couple months ago probably now. Um a few people did reach out to me. We talked about some options to formalize

157
00:46:55.599 --> 00:47:12.880
their request. Brought it be we scheduled the personnel committee meeting to hear that uh those personal or those formal requests and the personnel committee uh approved those um excuse me approved two of them.

158
00:47:12.880 --> 00:47:31.280
>> Right. And um those are the two that are in front of you tonight. We're not planning to backfill this position >> um right now just in a couple periods a day is all >> for for Mrs. Perry.

159
00:47:31.280 --> 00:47:48.079
>> Yeah. >> Yep. >> Will be able to pay into her VBO account. She doesn't have district issued health insurance policy. >> She will be able to Yeah. >> Is that >> she still has under the retirement portion of it or whatever?

160
00:47:48.079 --> 00:48:02.640
>> Yep. >> Yeah. That's in the MOU. >> Yeah. I know we've run into it, but they're current >> that don't have insurance. >> They don't have insurance. So, >> yeah, she has >> Make sure we're cover. >> Yep. >> So, she'll be paying her insurance.

161
00:48:02.640 --> 00:48:19.680
>> She'll be paying We will not be contributing to the insurance. Correct. >> Yep. >> She'll use it to buy insurance. Y >> to purchase the Cobra or whatever. Yep. >> Correct. No contribution to the insurance.

162
00:48:26.640 --> 00:48:46.000

that Kristen's um came to us. Uh personnel committee saw it, acted on that to support it as presented by Miss Student. Um, hers is is um pretty straightforward and

165
00:49:16.880 --> 00:49:37.200
um the committee is recommending that it be paid off entirely in the first year of for the next fiscal year and then that position is not proposed to not be filled as well. >> Any calculations of savings to the

166
00:49:37.200 --> 00:49:51.760
district after um >> yeah we have some um calculations on that that's a little bit murky at we know for sure um what we have to do in

167

science because of the others yeah we'll be bringing we can bring that whole staffing piece of savings projected savings to you um I bring it to the work session even later good >> yeah I have no idea Yep.

tremendously. um expectations, work ethic of our kids, all things. I mean, he's he's brought some real good direction for that program and uh strongly support his tenure. >> Point note for him um because he came to

180
00:53:42.079 --> 00:54:04.640
us with tenure, he he is offered tenure after one year with us. The other two individuals came to us without tenure. So, hence u they get it after their third year. I'll make a motion on this one. >> Second.

anyway. All right. 8.5 approve not approved resignation of industrial technology teacher Mila Donovan. >> Mila has um um interviewed and been offered a

183
00:54:38.000 --> 00:54:56.000
position at another district and has accepted that position and I believe their board has even acted on it. I'm not positive of that. But nonetheless, she has asked um to uh to resign from her position with Fox Public Schools

184
00:54:56.000 --> 00:55:17.520
effective at the end of the school year. >> Obviously, I think everybody's aware of the value that she brought to the district and how she took some brought back FFA and brought it from nothing to where it is now. you know, I be honest, I never was

185
00:55:17.520 --> 00:55:34.079
involved in FFA and didn't even know what it was until it started here. And um seeing that involvement from the kids has been really cool. Um so >> I think what's excuse me, I think what's interesting and what I appreciate so

186
00:55:34.079 --> 00:55:50.480
much is um I think over the years we all have a picture of what FFA is a little bit. >> Yeah. and um she has just brought that forefront for our entire community, but she's done it with a cross-section of kids

187
00:55:50.480 --> 00:56:06.720
>> that you may not think of when you think of FFA, if that's fair, and I'm not trying to >> to stereotype it, but um you just look at the list Don added of 36 kids that are down at state right now. It's >> it's every type of >> It's not all farm families.

188
00:56:06.720 --> 00:56:23.920
>> No, for sure. Um, and as Don talked about registration, um, we're just overflowing in those classes to the point of we can't take them all at and they're our younger kids are having to wait a year to take some

189
00:56:23.920 --> 00:56:39.599
of our classes. >> Well, the program is pretty cool, too, right? What's that? Summer program is pretty cool, too. >> So, this will be a really important hire for us >> for sure. >> The other thing I like is the the alumni portion.

190
00:56:39.599 --> 00:56:58.359
the community, myself included, should be far more involved in the school and know what's going on. And >> I think that's brought a lot of attention that way where people Yeah. >> She's done a great job in viving the program and we appreciate the work that she's done.

191
00:56:59.440 --> 00:57:14.960
>> Dog on is where she lives. She lives too far from here and too close to >> I can't I'm not even saying the other district. Right. >> We don't know. We know. That's why I said I don't like it. >> Many many of us have sent her different

192
00:57:14.960 --> 00:57:33.280
opportunities for little farm acreages have been for sale around the area. Didn't find the right one. We aren't in sales apparently. But I will make the motion to approve the resignation

198
00:59:15.200 --> 00:59:33.440
the opportunity. It's came at a time in my career when this was kind of the last step in education for what this position and um I couldn't have had a better place to to come in green and and grow in my in my

199
00:59:33.440 --> 00:59:49.040

Hearing none. All those in favor signify by saying I. >> I. All oppose saying sign. >> Motion carries. >> All right. 10.1. Um discussion on including staff representation in superintendent

202
01:00:23.200 --> 01:00:39.680
interview process. Um, so I received an email um from Sierra Gilbertson um kind of asking what our thought process was on um involving um some staff members and on the interview

203
01:00:39.680 --> 01:00:57.200
process um just for you know some insight into you some different insights on what would go on in in the buildings from a staff perspective. Um then I um reached out to Dean and it does sound like that at least in recent history has

204
01:00:57.200 --> 01:01:12.319
been um how things have been um managed as well. Um so I guess that would be the discussion is you want to continue with that. I think that would serve um a lot of value um

205
01:01:12.319 --> 01:01:29.200
for for us to take some input from a couple of staff members kind of listening to the interviews as well. Obviously the final decision rests with the board. Um the staff members that would be consulting would not have a vote in the process. It would be a seven but

206
01:01:29.200 --> 01:01:44.400
>> just like anybody else that particip or comes to the interviews they can >> an open meeting the interview processes. So I mean they're they're more than welcome to be there. Um trying to remember in the past I believe we did

207
01:01:44.400 --> 01:02:00.000
they were we welcomed anyone to share their thoughts opinions during the interview process and I believe they'd be more than welcome to do that primary our discussion since it's an open meeting. So >> did can I ask did did you have any handpicked when when I went through the

208
01:02:00.000 --> 01:02:14.640
process like you knew that these seven people were going to be there? >> I don't believe we did. Did we? >> Yes. >> I was I was you guys picked them didn't you? I don't think we >> it was by they it was from department also. >> I don't think the board

209
01:02:14.640 --> 01:02:31.280
>> the board them we let the the >> you guys selected representatives to >> selected them. So >> yeah we had >> no input on it. So >> yeah and I mean teaching staff then there was like uh ad administrative

210
01:02:31.280 --> 01:02:47.680
assistance then there was custodial I think it was certain all the departments that were >> represent and I don't believe the board had any input on that >> no it's just >> just a cross-section of staff to sit in there >> I don't see why we wouldn't

211
01:02:47.680 --> 01:03:02.880
>> right >> and did they have a opportunity then to voice >> yeah they were able to voice during open discussions that they were recognized >> at the open meeting. >> Okay. >> I think that I think that process I

212
01:03:02.880 --> 01:03:19.200
think you want that opportunity for >> I don't know why we wouldn't do it. >> Yeah. >> Right. This is on the agenda because this is my first time going through it and I didn't know. So >> thank you Maddie. you want to I don't know reach back out to Sierra and let

215
01:03:50.880 --> 01:04:09.599
>> and make that invite. Um we meet administratively on Thursday. Um we can discuss it there to make sure that it's communicated to everyone. >> Um you know certainly Sierra will take care of the teachers but we'll make sure
