A motion and a second. All in favor say I. >> I. >> Any opposed? The agenda is approved. Thank you. Move on to recognitions. Dr. Suggs. >> Absolutely. So excited. Tonight we have
three different individuals that we're going to meet. And um two of those individuals have earned the Wayne Wang Volunteer Award, which means
they were nominated because of the work that they do for our students in our schools. So, we're excited about that. What is the Wayne Way Volunteer Award? It's what it means is
showing up for our students and making our community stronger every single day. We had our inaugural awards. Um last school board we had two individuals that one group one
individual is Speedway Stitchers and Emerson Allen. Tonight I'd like to introduce you to Miss Smith. And if you can tell me how to say your first name. Deatra. >> Deatra. They have it shortened for me. >> Well, Dei is my name.
>> Oh, nice to meet you. Let me tell you, you just stand here and smile while I talk about it. >> Dee Smith is a retired public librarian who has volunteered in Wayne Township schools for more than 20 years.
That's over 10,000 volunteer hours dedicated to our students and our libraries. Shortly after retiring in the early 2000s, Dee moved into a house across the street from Ben Davis High School and began volunteering with the school
librarian. She's worked with multiple librarians over the years and currently volunteers one day a week at the Ben Davis 9th grade center library and one day a week at Davis High School. She even comes in during the summer.
That is awesome. But Dee doesn't just show up. She brings her expertise, her professionalism, and her love of learning with her. As a trained librarian, she catalogs books, checks them in, shelves them, and helps our media specialists brainstorm programs
and ideas. She steps in for um author visits. She handles tasks that free up our librarians to do more of what they love, teaching and connecting with students. On the busiest days, when a librarian has classes scheduled every period in more than 100 individual
student visits on passes, she's there. She keeps things running smoothly, so students and staff continued to get the service and attention they deserve. Recently, she helped out by putting together a blind date with a book.
>> Well, that's fun. >> Oh, that's awesome. And this happened at the ninth grade center. She and the librarian summarized books to sound like dating app profiles. I just wrapped them. >> She wrapped them in brown paper and
taped the summaries on the outside. When students started checking out the books, um, she smiled so big. She told the librarian, "It was rewarding to see students enjoy something that took so much work to organize and put together."
That's Deedicated, dependable, delighted to see students learn and grow, and for 20 years of service, her exceptional commitment, and her embodiment of the values we hold dear. Please join me in celebrating Did
you say Deatra? >> Deatra Smith. All of these people came to save, right? >> Um, so tell us why you do it. Well, I first wanted to have a place to come to check out books when I when it was
better and I didn't have to drive to the public school across the street both ways. >> It takes about 15 minutes. >> Absolutely. Well, wonderful. >> But um no, I just I love books. >> That's wonderful. Well, we have
something for you. >> In recognition of your extraordinary generosity and steadfast commitment to the students of Wayne Township, you do more than just volunteer. You show up with heart and consistency and purpose. Through your service, you strengthen our
schools, support our educators, and uplift our community. You exemplify the Wayne way. The spirit of showing up for one another and being allin for our students and our schools. I am Wayne. You are Wayne. We are because of you. We
continue building great schools. Great. You have a nice place to put back. >> You set me up on a day for I had a good one. >> That is so wonderful. And our next
um award will go to Marian. >> I saw Marian not too long ago. She have paint everywhere. Let's talk about that. >> All right. So, if you've been to Ben Davis Marching Giants band performance, a competition or a weekend event in recent years, you've likely seen Marian.
She's there at least two nights a week and nearly every Saturday supporting students, feeding them, helping them dress in uniforms, building props, and making sure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. Maryanne has served as a box mom, helping students get ready
for performances. She's fundraised. She served as both president and vice president of the Ben Davis Band boosters. And here's what's remarkable. She doesn't just show up for her own daughter's performances. She shows up for all of the students. Even when her
daughter isn't performing, she's there because she believes in the program and the students it serves. Maryanne helps feed multiple student groups every weekend. She coordinates with the band to help uh with competitions, performances, and events run smoothly.
She works tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure students have what they need to succeed. But Maryanne's impact goes beyond logistics. She builds community. She encourages other parents to show up, to get involved, to enrich student experiences. It's not uncommon
to find a thank you note or a small gift from Maryanne just because she writes notes in the mail to volunteers thanking them for their work. She fosters a culture of growth, gratitude, and generosity among parents and volunteers. Maryanne has a servant's heart through
and through. Wherever there's a need, she shows up physically, emotionally, financially for moral support. Her giving spirit has no limits. She also is a master networker. She connects people, finds supporters for programs, and works
tirelessly to ensure that the program she loves will continue long after her daughter graduates. She's not just building support for today. She's building a foundation for the future. Maryanne Finton exemplifies the Wayne
way in every way. Please join me in congratulating Mary F. here. I hope you have somewhere nice to display this, but certainly you exemplify what it means to be um
part of our community and what the way Wayne Way means. When she when I saw her, I went back to talk with the bambooers. Oh, I'm not kidding. She had paint everywhere and be like, "Huh, you want to join us that did I hear you saying I'm retiring but I'm
>> No, I I'll Yeah, I'll stay on with the alumni portion of the man. We're going to take an alumni piece to it. So, >> that is awesome. >> So, we can keep people engaged. >> Oh, that's right. We want to keep our folks engaged. Yeah. Who's with you tonight? >> Um my daughter Emily, the reason I do this. >> Um and my husband.
>> Thank you and welcome. And what year are you? >> I haven't seen you. You're congratulations Mississippi State. >> Congratul And you're studying school. >> Oh, well. All right. You guys,
that's phenomenal. We are so proud of your mom and we're so glad to have you in our district. So, thank you for what you do for us. Thank you all. Awesome. Dr. Linda Dao, can you join me, please? >> So, I want you to tell us more about
that. Carrie Miller, if you'll come on up. Um Gary Miller is an occupational therapist for us and she was recently awarded the outstanding advocate of the year. Um given by the Indiana Council
for Exceptional Children, Dr. D, would you like to say more about this? >> Yes. And we have actually the current Indiana CDC president and one of our own Todd Hawk. So I'd love to invite Todd. Absolutely. and Megan Highfield is the president-elect for my goal
for us. Um, and before I want Todd to share a little bit more about the board, but before I do that, I just wanted to share just a little bit about Carrie. Um, she's truly a tremendous occupational therapist for us. Um, does an outstanding job at Southfield. Her administrators are here supporting as well. Um and we you may remember add of
at the Thrive program at Southfield last year and I just cannot emphasize enough how instrumental Carrie was in getting that set up. Um just she's an incredible sensory space to serve so many students in the building and just goes out of her way to be an incredible colleague and
mentor to kids and just welcomes absolutely any student. So we're so so proud of her and you want to share the more the exact wording of your >> Yeah. And this is a great care. I promise the caring love. Um but there they had a lot to say about
her for nomination. But on February 17th, Indiana Council for Exceptional Children hosted our annual conference at the Monroe Convention Center in Bloomington. Uh people from across the whole state coming together to learn together, to grow together. During this event, awards were presented which
included the outstanding advocate of the year, an honor that recognizes individuals or organizations who educate others about the strengths and needs of individuals with exceptionalities, provide exceptional support services, or make meaningful contributions to the
mission of the council for exceptional children. So, we are a national organization with the state unit and we have one of the largest state memberships out of all 50 states. Um, so I want to take a moment here to highlight a little bit about Carrie. I'm sorry to Carrie
OT at Southfield here with us. And her nomination, Carrie was described as demonstrating exceptional dedication, leadership, and impact on students with exceptionalities. She played a pivotal role in launching the Thrive program at Southfield where
her work led to documented improvements in student engagement, regulation, and access to instruction. She was also recognized for her forward thinking approach. Her nominator said, "At anticipating student and staff needs and responding with innovative
research-based strategies and for her integrity and professionalism, she is a trusted resource for staff and families alike. And finally, her commitment to inclusion stood out as well as she has strengthened the capacity of staff staff
schoolwide, resulting in more inclusive and supportive classrooms for all students. That's amazing. Were you surprised? >> You had no idea. >> Um, and so I know you must think like this is hard, right? Embarrassing,
right? You don't love this. Well, we do love that you are here with us. um that you had a hand in helping us launch our program at Southfield. But I know that what year is this for you and Wayne
since it goes fast? I can recall the day that um I hired you and um you know it's it's always rewarding to know that your work goes un you know is is being noticed and that people appreciate what you do. So you have earned this
recognition of outstanding advocate of the year. Um, anything you want to share about? >> No, thank you. >> I love my job. I love what I do. >> Yeah, we can do that. We all can come
together. >> Awesome. Awesome. Great person. Yeah. >> Thank you, Dr. Charles. Do we have anyone sign up for public comment this evening?
>> No, we do not. Thank you. You've been provided with minutes from our previous meetings. Do we have a motion to approve minutes as provided? >> I make a motion to accept the minutes as provided. Second. Have >> a motion to add a second. Any comment or
discussion? Hearing none. All in favor say I. I. >> Any oppose? Men are approved. Thank you. Moving on to the financial report. Dr. change
money from the board included in your documents for time. You should have found the claims document totaling 30,153,9988 for your review. Just one item to note this month, these expenditures uh do reflect the time frame capturing of
three payrolls and that's why I see those increased expenditures in the education operation. referendum funds. Happy to answer any questions that you may have and respectfully ask for approval of the financial report as
I move for approval of financial report and amendment. Second, >> I have a motion and a second. Any comment or discussion hearing? None. All in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? >> Financial report is approved. Thank you,
Dr. Sam. Moving on to old business bid recommendations, interior renovations. Dr. Samuel. >> Thank you again, Mr. President. Members of the board, also included in your documents for this evening, you will find the recommendation letter for our
2026 interior renovations across the district. I always like to begin these approvals with a quick review of school finance noting that these projects are paid for through our debt service fund which is separate from the education
operations and referendum funds. Most importantly, our debt service fund is statutoily required that it was spent on items relating to capital of capital improvement. These funds are not able to be spent on salaries or other recurring expenses.
This work is much smaller than in previous years and is focused on maintaining the over three million three million sorry 3 million square feet of facilities that we have so they can continue to provide great environments for our students to learn and teachers
to teach. So a little bit about these projects and what the projects are. So it encompasses um all of these that I will kind of give a quick rundown of and then provide an opportunity for questions if there are any renovations
of the Lynhurst 7th and 8th grade center food serving lines in dishwashing area along with equipment in those spaces. I would note for this project, the largest item and of all the projects uh here,
the largest item we'll ask for approval is the equipment for the survey lines with the food service equipment. Those items pay for with our child nutrition funds. They have those funds set aside to pay for those. So those would be keeping
separate from the debt service fund and of course those other funds that I mentioned. This projects or these projects will also include interior renovations at child elementary that will bring in a few spots the building in line with the recent floor classroom addition. Also
includes work to modify the gym ceiling but we'll remove the drop ceiling that is frequently in need of repair because it gets hit by influence being played with by our students. This requires though some new HBAC duct work, electrical work for lighting and
sound relative paid for the newly exposed areas of the ceiling at gymnasium and when finished would bring Jim at Chapel Glenn in light with that of our other elementary school. The last of the uh major projects that
are included here is work to rehab the building at the Ben Davis soccer facility. We work really hard to avoid deferred ma maintenance, but this one is in pretty rough shape. It hasn't been touched since it was built around 25 years ago. And there are a number of
items we'll address to seal the exterior of the building. Chief among those is the need for new windows. They're no longer functioning and leave the building open to the elements due to gaps. I can tell you when we were reviewing projects for 2026,
um I mean I could put my fingers through a gap and see to the outside. So we kind of left ourselves unfortunately really in a place where we pushed it to the edge of where we could needed to respond in order to continue to be able
to utilize that that facility. Other components that will be part of that is uh we don't have a delineated changing area for males and females in that space. So that will now be possible
using both of the floors there. And then as we look to maintain the interior of that facility, we have some updates to the HVAC systems. We put all those control humidity. We will increase the light that facility and the finishes
inside of it. The other thing that you will see on the recommendations is kind of our annual gym floor refinishing to just maintain those floors, keep them in good working condition across the district. With that, I would pause and be happy to answer any questions related
to the projects before we dig into the bid pack. So on bid package number seven, mechanical where um we have the soccer athletic building plumbing fixtures. Is that the only place that the soccer fields are
going to be or the soccer building, excuse me, is going to be renovated or worked on? I >> also it would it would include a number of pieces. Part of that is um new venting in the restrooms to help
alleviate moisture in those spaces. But also um it would include similar to what we installed at Ben David's football stadium and epoxy flooring and then excuse me new stalls would be also be
installed in those restrooms there. >> So that would be the maintenance. >> That's right. >> Okay. And then the you said there was flooring also at the soccer field or soccer athletic building. Excuse me. >> I don't see anything on that bin number
three for flooring and tile. I don't see for soccer athletic building. >> Yeah. So what you will um what you see broken up there on the alternates u is separate. Those indicate items that we wanted to see what the pricing was
before. um we included them rather than including them in the larger bid package. Gives us the flexibility to in these instances defer the alternate. So I would ask for
on these options approval of the alternates as an example is building the spin. Um and so included in the scope of the work that is not broken out on an individual basis would be the flooring for the second
floor of that side of the facility. Stairway leading up to that second floor epoxy flooring and restrooms and then uh the first floor where there would be a female changing area that's just
great. question >> the gym poor refinish. How many of the schools does that in this $33,300? >> Yeah. So, um we hit our high school floors that are high use
every summer with it with a coat back over the top. Middle schools are every other summer and our our elementaryaries are every three years. So, depending on where we're at in that cycle. This is a little bit lighter. We
were up to 50k the last couple years because we had a few that we had to go ahead and sand down that first layer back on. I thought we have in front of me. My guess is this is going to include our RCR the days high school gymnasiums and
nth grade center probably one Chapel Hill not the nurse because we did we did a new gym floor at the nurse last summer and then a handful of elements. So it's really a pretty economical piece and um best practice in that area
is to you really you really have to keep coming back with coats in order to get that to the appropriate seal. So that's kind of right there. Okay, buckle up. We'll dig into all seven packages here.
So we'll begin with bid package number two, which does seem odd. I would note that bid package one demolition was included in general trades package uh before those uh went out to bid, but we didn't change the bid package numbers as
those went out. We're pleased to have three biders for this work. Um I'm happy to answer any questions that you have. Request approval of the base bid or bid package from two contributable trades at a total of $775,000.
$775,500. Um that includes alternate one for Chapel Glenn Gymnasium improvements or $111,500. I recommend approval for big bid package number two trade. >> Second.
>> We have a motion and a second regarding bid package number two. Any comment or discussion? Just a quick question again. I'm sorry. I don't know why I'm have trouble understanding this, but the general trades, the bid package, that's for any
work being done throughout the district. It's not really um particular to one building, right? Except for Chapel Glenn Gymnasium improvement. >> So, it would be included in all these projects that we mentioned. So, the lizard serving line renovation and some
of the chap innovation. So I could explain that the part of work we need to do at Lhurst is the dishwashing machine doesn't work and the new models don't fit in the space that we have. So we do have to move a wall and so general
trades underneath that would be the work to demolish that old wall then rebuild the wall. >> Gotcha. Okay. >> Great question. >> I'm with you now. We have any additional comment or discussion regarding bid package number two?
Hearing none. All in favor say I. >> Any oppose? And bid package number two for general trades is approved. Thank you Dr. Sam. You moving to bid package number three for flooring and tile. We had two biders for this work. Similarly, I'm happy to
answer any questions that you have and respectfully request sorry request approval of the base of alternate this one is alternate two from the Blakeley Corporation at a total of $177,180

>> Any opposed? Thank you, Dr. Samuel. Bid package number three for Florian Tile is approved. >> Thank you. Moving to bid package number four for Turzo. We only have one bidder for this work. It is uh listed as alternate number two. as as with the
other bid packages. Happy to answer any questions that you have. And respectfully ask for approval of alternate bid number two for Terzo from Blakeley Corporation at a total of $23,670. >> I recommend approval bid package number four to

questions that you have. And the employee asks for approval of the base bid for electrical and technology from Barf Electric at total cost $189,700. >> Recommend approval for bid package number eight, electrical and technology.
Second. >> Have a motion and a second for bid package eight, electrical and technology. Any comment or discussion hearing? None. All in favor say I. >> I. >> Any oppose? Thank you, Dr. Samuel. Bid package 8 for electrical and technology
is approved. >> Approvals for the interior. >> And we will stay with Dr. Samuel for recommendations on roofing. >> Thank you, Mr. President. Luckily, the roofing projects only have uh one bit
for us to act on today, including new documents this evening. You'll also find the recommendation letter for the 2026 roof work at Ben Davis 9th grade center. As noted in the previous bid approvals, this project is also paid for out of our debt service fund. As we've discussed before, there
were a number of buildings open across the MST and Wayne Township in the 2004 to 2007 time frame, and they're all hitting the 20-year mark. This means that they're all in need of new roofs, boilers, chillers, etc. We have a great
plan in place to capture this work over the next few years, but the projects are large enough that we have to work to space them out. We're in the process at this time. One that may be coming your way soon is we're getting information and hoping to release bids next for the
placement of the roof hill center as well. The work encompassed in this bid though will replace the entire roof at Ben Davis grade center. Just like our previous uh and recent roof project, we were able to reduce cost by about 50% on
the project by utilizing an overlay method rather than a remove and replace. Uh thinking back to the previous statement regarding the number of buildings in that 04 to07 time frame. Um that overlay is really what's allowing
us to grab all of that in appropriate time frame be able to complete that work. Happy to answer any questions that you have and request approval of the base bid at a total of 1,376,368 from South Central Roofing for the 2026
roof work at Ben Davis. time on the schools where we have already done the overlay. Have we noticed any issues at all on that? Mr. Gordy, can we get a motion in a second? >> Oh, I'm sorry. Please. >> I recommend we approve the Ben Davis 9th
grade center booth work at 1,376,368. >> Second. >> We have a motion to add a second for roof work. We have any comment for discussion? >> Same question. I'm sure you know Thank you. >> You know my question though.
>> Absolutely. Um so the roofs that we have complete in that space currently are garden city which had some um hiccups as we got through it but um has performed really well uh once once completed um to
our satisfaction. We are in the process of that that roof uh replacement protocol being used in stop field. It is it is proceeding well for us. It is also in progress and about twothirds of the
way complete at L seventh and eighth grade center. So it's working working well there and it's holding up. Um, you know, Liers in Chapel Hill, you know, really are the largest roofs outside of Ben Davis High School that we have that they cover quite a bit. So, knowing that
that it's in progress, but it's held up, especially on what would be the eastern half of the building at we can't do that process more than twice because the weight gets too much. So, it's kind of like 20 years from now, we don't have trust. We're going to have to
tear it off and restart. >> You have any additional comment or discussion regarding the roofing? >> Hearing none. All in favor signify by saying I. >> I. >> Any opposed? Thank you, Dr. Samuel. The roofing is
approved. Moving moving on to - category 2 request for proposal vendor approval. Dr. Walters. >> Yes. Uh Dr. department asked that I carry these forward and if you have questions I'm happy to offer Dr. Samuel,
>> Mr. Resident, members of the board, we're requesting board approval to award the category 2 - contract to Network Solutions Incorporated following the spring 2026 RFP process. Two proposals were received. Network Solutions was selected based on cost and service
quality. This product supports district-wide upgrades to network switches and UPS devices to enhance connectivity and security. Total project cost is up to $871,12824 with an anticipated D-Ray reimbursement of 85% resulting in a district

2026 vendor approval. >> Mr. President, members of the board, we're requesting board approval to award the award the internet services contract to Unity Solutions following our spring 2026 RFP process. We received seven bids and Unity Solutions was selected based
on cost effectiveness, service quality. This contract qualifies for a 90% e-ray reimbursement, resulting in a monthly district cost of $183.14, which would be a total service cost of $1,831.39

excess? >> I might know the first. >> Okay. believe it's three-year contract. >> Believe that's second question was who are we using? >> Um no um who who are we replacing?
>> Oh um I believe we have been with Windstream but we when we go through this process it's we're basically reseeking the best possible solution. I hesitate because I know when with Justin was here and we
had some internet outages. I remember talking with him he our vendor was wind screen it would be with only about a 95% level of certainty that I would tell you that the previous threeear contract was also wind screen but I'm not aware that we switch
I believe that's true >> but we have two internet I know where we have um our own fiber we go directly through zo it's my other so for instance the construction at transportation
um ran fiber from the street directly back. So this could be past they said my technological knowledge however I believe that is direct through Z for those for those services we have some
small places where we have um basically business commeers also but I don't believe we have to go through process >> I think the last time we've looked at this I think it actually was Dr. Harvey
that explained we do have uh dual vendors because it's uh pretty imperative that we have redundancy in the district. >> That that actually sounds 100% correct. Thank you for recalling that. >> Will staff or students feel any difference in the change other than
hopefully no >> outages. Right. >> I mean we try to bump up what are parents access. So hopefully it'll be better. >> Great. Thank you. We have any additional comment or discussion regarding the -ate internet

a reminder this while we um we got our first reading that this new updated policy updates some title change and that cleans up some gender language also defines stimulants under the controlled substance act. Um additionally you had a
question zar because we talked about prescription drugs. Um so there we made a change to say um and we use some of the language from earlier in the policy that uh prescription stimulants not prescribed by the covered individual's
position to clear up that it's having prescription medicine is fine just not someone else's. >> Thank you. I appreciate that. I noticed that >> I answer any of your questions concerning policy B 325 drugs and alcohol free work. recommend approval of D25,

show for it. Um just have a couple of items I want to mention tonight. Um, we are on track to close on the old transportation property on April 24th. Um, if anything changes uh with that
timeline, we certainly will make you aware of that. But we're super excited to to get through that process um pretty successfully so far. Um, lots of sports going on right now all at the same time. Baseball, softball, track, boys
volleyball. I went to my first boys volleyball game right before a break. It was so fun. Um so if you get the chance to to go over to the high school, there's plenty to see. Um this coming Wednesday, Ben Davis High School
athletic college signing night um is going to happen. Um again, Wednesday night, Thursday night, there's an orchestra concert happening if you're interested. And we just found out um Dr. Walters and I that our robotics team
will be participating in the state championships this year. >> Isn't that great? >> Yeah. And then I'm excited to share that on this Wednesday uh we will be launching um our monthly community newsletter and it's called the Wayne
Wire. And in that communication, we're going to share all the great news that's happening in our district, the wonderful work happening in our classrooms, um the things that our students are achieving, but also as a place where I can share with our community and all
transparency what's happening with our finances, um the cost-saving measures that we're taking um to make sure that we can become solvent and um just to make sure our community is aware of all that we are doing here
in Wayne Township. So that will launch on state. So ahead, will the Wayne wire be a digital only distribution or will there be any print concerns? >> It it is a at this point um a digital
distribution. Um it's it's going to be pretty large. Correct me if I'm wrong. I said earlier 20,000 is on that list. It's a really large list. I know we have had some requests um to get those out um
in a paper form. Um you know, we moved away from that some years ago because it became really expensive to do, especially if we're talking about that kind of volume. Um so that's that's kind of where we land. >> Very good.
