is not currently in this packet, but it is something that we've covered in every other meeting. >> Oh, it's electronically attached. Yes, >> in the posting. >> Yeah, it's in the posting. Um, so with that being said, I think we can jump right into E. I do need a motion and a
second to approve in form section E first read. >> So move. >> Second. >> All right. So, uh, let me call. >> Well, it's a >> we have to do discussion. >> Sorry. >> All right. Um,
everything is so heavily clipped together. >> All right. This is the clean package and then this is the one with the >> Yep. >> All right. So we are starting EB safety
program. This is MASC only. Recommend adoption as a statement of introduction to the safety policies that follow comments. >> All right. and adoption >> EBA
pest management policy. This is MASC only and they recommend adoption. Um this is their template language. The only change that was made in here was to Mthuan. And to the best of my knowledge, this is
everything we're actually already doing as far as pest management goes. On to the next one. EBB, building and ground safety. Uh, this is recommended removal in favor of MASC's ECA,
which is further in the packet. Um, EBB, first aid. This is MASC only and they recommend adoption. uh this being heavily covered by MGL because it is medical care
eB use of safety equipment. This was methan only. Uh MSC advised that this is more appropriate for an employee handbook and they recommended us removing it from the policy. EBC emergency plans. This is MASC only
and they recommend adoption. Should I pause between or I don't want to blow through? I know >> we've all already read them, but >> yeah, >> if I have anything to say, I will stop you. >> I have a question. All right.
>> Emergency plans for all >> your microphone. >> Oh, I'm sorry. Sorry. >> The under the emergency plans, the CPR training. Is that for all teachers? >> So, it's not We have a We have a group of teachers that are CPR certified that help us train
>> students as part of the health curriculum at the high school. >> We are always looking for more staff to become trainers for CPR. >> Trainer. >> Training. Yeah. We're looking for more trainers. >> Okay. Because the Yeah. Thank you. >> You're welcome.
>> I'm good. >> EBC >> emergency drills muan only covered by the previous policy EBC and they recommend removal. All right. ECD emergency closings. The
Mthuan version was uh deemed outdated. I mean, we're talking 1983. >> Wow. >> Um MASC recommends their version, which is the next one in the packet. >> Which I think is pretty spot on to
everything that I've observed in the city over the years. EC building and grounds management. A new version is outdated. This one is even older than the last. This one came in at 1975. This is
a recommended uh that we use their version which is the next one. You'll notice down the last paragraph of that instead of being building administrator, we updated it to say supervising principal or their designate because it may be the principal, it may be the head
custodian, it may be one of the APs, >> anything next ECA ground building and ground security [snorts] recommended adoption to replace meth uence EBB.
>> This this is slightly aspirational as you'll see. It expects the committee to cooperate with other departments which I think by and large we do. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. I think this was the one where we asked her to change the language to work in close cooper coop because we do work with the fire and police departments for
all emergency >> manual creation, you know, evacuations, lockdowns, all of it. Okay. >> All right. File ECABA, student employee identification
high school. So, this was Mthuan only and it was deemed to be more appropriate for a handbook either student or employee and recommend removal. E Cac
vandalism protection. So MASC recommends their policy as it is more comprehensive. >> So I just want to point out that this one is actually older than me. >> Oh, me too. [laughter]
Those questions are there, but the first one for sure. >> [laughter] >> I was just barely not alive. >> Okay. >> All right. So, EC and the vandalism
um that is there policy last updated in 2022 when we were all alive. um reflective of just updates for Mthuan being residents and from town to city.
ECAF security cameras and schools. This is an MASC only and they recommend adoption. >> All right. >> Yep. ECC grounds management. This is covered by EC making it duplic duplicative and they
recommend removal. ECD green cleaning products. This is a Mthuan only. It's procedural and they recommend us discussing um member Keegan, keep me honest because
this was a while back, but we could have a policy that says it is the intent of the district to use gle green cleaning products, you know, as as available and as
appropriate and like required in some areas. Yeah. But this this gets into a lot of detail about what kind and how and where to use and how to use and when to use. And >> I think this is better suited for
an operations manual versus a policy. >> Right. I agree. I think we should remove it. >> It was. Yeah. Okay. [snorts] >> So my recommendation >> removal would >> be to remove ECD >> and on second read
>> have something more generic. >> We don't I don't even think we need anything more generic because I mean this is just a Mthuan only policy. >> Um yeah I have no argument >> we can just remove it alto together. >> Okay.
So let's include in the notes to what that was as an >> Well, I know back in 2012 the state did a big push out of OSD for green cleaning products. >> There might have been >> and I will I will double check this to
make sure that if we don't have a policy we like that might be something they look for when we do grants through the city to green communities. Do we have a policy that we are committed to this? So, let me just pull that one as a >> if we need it, we can revise it and we
can do that for second read. Uh, if we don't need it, we can remove it at second read. >> Does that make sense? I do want to look because if I don't want to remove something and that might be something that Mr. Crab, we have to hold on to when we're doing those partnership grants. >> Yeah, I don't
>> that's a really good thought. >> I didn't have that in my notes from the subcommittee. So, maybe we just didn't think about that. >> Right. >> Okay. ECFA, Energy Star Equipment Performance, MHS. >> This is Mthuan only. Same concept as
last time. Um, >> this one did have something to do with >> a grant. >> A grant. >> What? ECFA. >> Yes. Yeah. remember because we had this conversation about why is it just Methooan High School and the reason was
because it was a grant for Methuan High that we needed to have this policy put in place and so then we added and all other buildings were possible since it just didn't make sense. >> So I guess with that being said, is there any argument against removing MHS
and just using it as a district-wide Right. >> Right. >> Yeah, I could just remove the whole thing. All new purchases for buildings for buildings. Right.
>> So I removed >> I mean all new the Mun Public Schools require that energy efficiency energy star equipment and appliances >> for all new purchases >> for all new purchases and prohibits the purchase. Like I don't think we need all that middle stuff. >> Yep.
Okay. Okay. Also, I don't even know if they make non- energy star appliances anymore. I feel like that's >> I don't I don't know that they do. But again, this was because of the grants that we were getting. We needed the policy. So, we have to keep it, but it
can be as generic. >> All right. >> Tied to the green. You know, I'll I'll make sure. Yes, too. I'm pulling them out. >> Okay. EDC authorized use of schoolowned materials. This is MASC only and they recommended us discussing.
>> Now why did they want me ask why what is the issue? >> So the conversation we had again keep me honest because this was a while ago. So like the wreck rentals in our gyms in the rink,
>> okay? They're coming in and there are >> disposables and commodities associated with those, right? >> There are things that >> ice rink might use our skates or >> because we have skates that are part of the ice rink that the kids use during
gym class. So when kids when people rent it, they also use the skates. So those are our things. Or like they might use our basketballs. Hypothetically speaking, I don't know that they do, but It could be anything like that. Any sort of equipment that we
have that they end up using as part of their rental. >> They're going to use our >> projectors, laptops. Sometimes they when they do a rental facility, depending they they ask for certain things to have be set up before their rentals. So that's what this would pertain to. Okay.
>> Which we do have that as part of our rental agreements. >> Yep. >> Thank you. >> So I see no argument against leaving this the way it is. EA student transportation services buses um everyone's favorite MASS only
committee should discuss Mthuan related specifics so unfortunately I think this was one that was important to member Maxwell and she is not here so >> I don't know what the particular >> issues were
>> so the so one of the things that she wanted to do is remove um the distance for um elementary students and middle school students um for walking but because she was under the impression
that we did not have any walkers in the district which it was not the case and once a >> that's in the next policy. Oh, sorry. >> So, walkers and writers, right? >> Okay. So, we're we're good with EA,
>> I think. Yeah, I think EA isn't >> Am I mixing up the two? >> I think you are. >> Okay. Well, >> this one is fine and would would cover all of our >> Okay. >> bidding and expectations for contracts and a lot of that is also regulated. >> All right. So now we have file EA walkers and riders
which I know when we did the bid for busing with the consultant um we looked at minimizing routes as a cost savings opportunity. And because
>> many of our roads don't have sidewalks and our schools are all on main roads, it became very difficult So even though these kids who live in one mile are many of them are still on buses.
>> Correct. But there are students who do walk espe for sure at the CGS there are walkers at the CGS because there are sidewalks on house street. Um, and so those students, if we removed it to say that everybody gets a bus, we would then
need to be adding buses over there, and we don't want to do that. So, we needed to keep the language in. >> Um, and then we can bus more students if we wanted to, right, than what this allows for because of
unsafe conditions. But this gives us the ability that >> if there are sidewalks and we do have kids who are walking that we don't now have to turn around and bust them because we've taken out the distances >> right >> in the policy
>> and these distances come >> well there's no so in that same flipping the page over this is what I was saying the distances are not in the MGL because EAA is MASC's version,
>> right? And they have a students living at least one and one half mile from school. So they do have a distance in there. >> They do >> because it does come from MGL. >> Does come from MGL. Okay. >> Yeah. So we want >> back to me now. >> Yeah. So we want to keep the distances
because we do have some kids >> in some neighborhoods that are able to walk and we aren't busing them at the moment. So we don't want to have to add more buses. >> I think this would be a good one. Um I'm just looking back at our notes too. We
had some questions about um like our own rules. So, how about I pull this one out and have a discussion with Ian and see what we actually put in. I just don't want any language to contradict what we have in the handbook
and what Ian has like for miles and distance. I think that's what we were kind of putting this on, not hold, but a discussion for so I can put that one in this pile as well and make sure that we're not contradicting oursel. If we leave it in, it's fine, but I wanted to
match everything else that we're doing. >> All right. E AE school bus safety program MASC only recommend adoption >> and c can I just just for this one because it was discussed at length. Yep.
So number four says classroom instruction. We're holding that in a broad definition of classroom meaning whether it's the classroom is the bus while we're sitting on the bus and doing the instruction. We're doing the instruction in school. So, we had a little bit of a lengthy conversation about that with Alicia as well. We're
keeping it in there as is because that's how it reads in the um Yep. Yep. >> All right. E AEA criminal record check school for school bus drivers. So, the MASC model policy
moves background checks to section A, which we have already done, right? Yeah. >> So recommend removal of this >> um EA then becomes bus driver examination and training.
So I I know we discussed this before. I'm not quite sure that we actually >> do this >> especially number four >> general is this the 90 97b
>> y >> well we did talk about that we don't get >> we don't get the name but it says the school committee get the names >> so we should add >> we don't need I mean that's not us >> under that we should say or designate >> right >> and that way the superintendent can be
the designate, >> right? >> Um perhaps it should say the superintendent instead of the school committee because I don't think >> superintendent on behalf of the school committee because I am the one that
reviews all the >> right. I don't think we're going to be reviewing it in public session about people's driving records, right? >> No. So, we don't want that to even be a possibility because that wouldn't be okay. >> So, I think we need to change that.
>> Okay. I'm pulling more out than I >> Sorry. >> Well, do we need to pull that out or can we just say yes, we're going to change school committee to >> to superintendent because I have to note to do that. >> Oh, right. >> I try to take the notes for Alicia, but
You may have to go in and change the >> Okay. E AE drug and alcohol testing for school bus and commercial vehicle drivers. This is an MASC only policy and they recommend our adoption. I'm fairly certain we already do all
this. >> Yes. >> I'm sorry. E E A E B >> E E >> drug and alcohol testing which a lot of would come under their DOT cards. >> Did I miss that?
>> Oh, it's on the back of this one. Yes, it is. >> Okay. >> Are we good? >> Yeah. >> All right. Eec bus conduct. Um the MAC model policy is more up todate. uh they recommend us scrapping this one and
accepting the one on the following page which also classifies under JIC which is the student section. >> Y >> so this one runs double duty in two places >> which is fine. We have that.
>> All right. >> E A student transportation and private vehicles. This is MASC only. Some districts do not allow it at all and they recommend we discuss >> which one was this? G
>> E A student transportation and private vehicles. >> We had some strong feelings about this one in our subcommittee. >> Yes. So much so I wrote it in the notes, right? This only covers um extracurriculars. So like if kids are
going to a track meet, they can't be transported in private vehicles. >> Now that doesn't include the parent of the child, >> correct? that is the coach renting a a a minivan or a bus,
>> right? So So we did put a hard no on this one in the subcommittee. I'm still a hard no. So we have vans that we would use for smaller groups of students to go for golf or if they had to go to a >> um we have some of our track students, right? Like one team makes it to the
nationals or the states, we have the van go. So it's very school-based. No private vehicles. >> Right. >> Right. Yeah. >> Okay. >> Long long-standing practice. I'm not sure why it would even be recommended, but
>> E AJ motor vehicle idolling policy. Um, the MS MASC recommends that we scrap ours and use theirs, which is a few pages over. >> Where is this?
>> Um, ours is like three the pages. Theirs is much more succinct. >> This was a spirited conversation and asked I remember requesting Dr. Kuang get the signs for outside the high school
and she said you were going to look into having them put out all outside all the all the schools to make sure that the buses aren't idling >> because there was somebody mentioned they were there was a way for me to get the signs free. >> Yes. >> Is that
I think Alicia mentioned that you can get them free. >> Yeah. >> Okay. On to the next one. EF Food Service Management. Uh this one is from 1975. They recommend removal as it is covered
in other places such as EFC and ADF. And then we have EFC which is an MASC model policy which they recommend replacing ours with. Um it includes things such as the passage of the universal free lunch.
>> So it is much more updated than ours even though ours is only from 2011. Anything? All right. EFD meal charge policy. Uh the MSC model policy was updated after the passage of the universal free lunch.
Um so they recommend scrapping ours and using theirs. All right, we'll go on to the next one. EF civil rights complaints policy for child nutrition programs. It's an MASC only and they recommend our
adoption. So the note at the bottom here says districts are required by FNS133-1 to establish procedures to receive complaints, assist individuals with complaints, log and report civil rights complaints related to school food and
nutritional services. And once we do accept this, there do need to have a developed complaint procedure which we don't currently have. >> Add it to the list.
>> EFF vending machines smithuan only. So they believe or they Alicia believes that this may be partially covered by ADF. Um but we should discuss they recommend removal and referral to the wellness committee
>> which I support. >> Me too. >> Off to the wellness committee. >> Off to the wellness committee. >> All right. Eha uh MASC only. They recommend adoption. Oh, this is district security related to
technology. All right. >> Um, EHB data and record retention. MASC only recommend adoption. >> And that ladies and gentlemen brings us to the end of E.
So, we are going to need a new motion to approve section E as amended in form. So, the last time um we did this with
the mayor, we made so we didn't remove these from the first read. We kept them in the first read. >> Mhm. >> Yeah. As noted that we would either amend. There's a couple that are easy amend and there's a couple that we need to like these two are just removing some
language. The other two I have to see if we actually need these, right? and then maybe revised. >> The proper language for the motion is to approve section E as amended in form. >> Yes. >> Right. >> So moved. >> I think so.
>> Hold on. I need to >> ask the mayor what he thinks about that motion. >> Mr. Mayor, are you good with the language there? Yeah, there was the original motion earlier and then um I guess the best way to do it would be to adopt any of the
amendments that had been recommended and then take the vote. >> That's what we have to do. You have to adopt the amend. You guys have to formally adopt the amendments that we said of these four. >> Yeah. four >> that we are going to change
>> amendments >> and then that way it's attached to the original motion. >> That's perfect. Thank you, mayor. >> Do I need to list those four individually? >> I don't think so. I don't think we did it with when we did C and D. We just knew which ones we were pulling out. I had it. >> All right. Motion to adopt amendments
to section E. I would move to amend and include any of the amendments that were discussed and then from there you can have a motion to adopt as amended. So there would be a vote on any amendments and then the final adoption
as amended. >> Move to amend. So you think we need to include >> I just think somebody needs to motion make a motion to include the amendments you made to the one. >> Right. What he's saying is to list those out. >> Oh, to I can list them out. Ready? >> All right.
>> ECD, ECFA, ECD, ECFA, E A and E E A E A. Ridiculous.
>> All right. I need a motion to amend ECD, ECFA, EAA, and EA EA. >> So moved. >> Second. >> All right. Keegan Donovan. All right. Roll call. Desagio. Donovan. >> Yes. >> Keegan.
>> Yes. >> Maxwell. Shabilia. Yes. And Mayor Bogard. >> Yes. >> Unanimous. So now it's going to be a motion to accept the amended section E.
Wish I had my computer so I don't have to handw write it all. Accept amended section E in form. >> So moved. Second.
All right, Zaglio Dunovan. >> Yes. >> Keegan, >> yes. >> Maxwellia, yes. We'll let Mayor Bard, >> yes. >> All right, that'll be easier next time because we will have all the motions. Okay, so now we are going to go into
F. So I need a motion to approve section F in form. >> So moved. >> Okay. Section F is a little one. Um FA is a facilities
development goals. Uh this is MASC only. They use it as an introductory statement and they suggested we discuss how it aligns with our greater district goals. Um I think that it is
broad which in this particular case is a good thing because as the goal develops and changes as time goes on because our goals are not the same today as they were I don't know March. I think this sets us up for
uh as they would call it at work purposeful ambiguity. Anybody? >> All right. FCB retirement of facilities MASC only school should have general
superintendency responsibilities for the buildings under their care and keeping. So, uh, there is a note there, but the notice regarding regional schools and that does not apply to us. >> Was this the one that talked about naming or was that a different Oh,
that's the next one. >> Comment. >> Um, FF, naming [clears throat] of facilities, MASC only. Again, the same comment. Schools should have the general superintendency responsibilities for the buildings under their care and and keeping. Um this
is their policy argument against >> um nope. I mean it goes along with Massachusetts general law that and it states that the school committee has the authority to approve the naming and renaming of buildings structures and facilities located on school property.
The school committee also has the authority to name subsections of existing structures or facilities such as classrooms, auditoriums, and gymnasiums. So that's in accordance with math law. >> Timing is a funny thing, >> right?
>> So yeah, I say yes. >> All right. Um file FFA memorials. It's MASC only. Uh same comment as before. Um, so this one in particular we talked a lot about um because we do have some
permanent memorials that already exist. Um, and the goal was to keep those that already exist. Um, but to place expectations on going forward what
we would do. Um because benches and things like that take up space and we can't do them for everybody. >> All right, that brings us to the end of section F. Um I need a motion to accept F in form because there were no changes.
>> Didn't we already do that? >> Is that wasn't that our discussion of the motion? >> Oh, right. Because we're not we don't have to change it. >> We don't have to change it. >> So you just need to take the roll call. >> All right. Um Member. Member Donovan. >> Yes. >> Member Keegan. >> Yes. >> Member Maxwell. Memberilia. Yes. Member
Wlette and Mayor Bergard. >> Yes. >> This is all right. So now we are going into >> G in form. All right, there we go.
G is beefy. All right, so I need a motion to approve section G in form. >> So moved. Second. >> All right, let's get to Okay. GBA equal oh equal employment
opportunity affirmation affirmative action policy. So the version is from 1993 and does not include the crown act. MASC recommends use of their version which is on the next page.
So although it's not usually necessary to have a policy that simply restates existing law, in this case it's important to refer reaffirm the school committee's commitment to equal opportunity and to remind hiring authorities in the district that many considerations other than district
educational goals and factors are to be considered. No problem. >> GBEA staff ethics conflict of interest. So the Mthuan version is from 99 and while similar to the uh MASC one, it is
missing information including the ethics training. So we they recommend >> using their policy. GBE staff conduct the policies matched. There was no action required. Uh GB EBA
staff dress code. uh they recommended that this this is not policy language and much more appropriate for handbooks and or the CBA recommend removal. >> Uh GBBC staff solicitations.
The MDUN [laughter] >> the MDUN version is from 1986 and is out of date. >> That's right. >> Masc recommends their version. >> Yes. It kind of just reiterates state law and
the ethics laws, but I think it's good to have. >> And I know it comes up every year around Christmas and end of year. >> Yes. >> Right. And I also appreciate the raffles and games of chance that you know it does state that that mass law does not
allow for them. >> Okay. GBD online fundraising and solicitations/crowdfunding. This is MASC only and they recommend adoption. >> Yes. Um GBEC
this is drug fe drugfree workplace policy muan version does not include all of the enumerated requirements under MGL so they recommend MA MASC version >> yes GBEC-R
certification requiring ing drug free drug free workplace requirements. This is Mthuan only and it's procedural. Um if MASC's version of GBEC which we just did is adopted, >> they recommend
uh scrapping it. >> Yep. Absolutely. >> Yep. >> Tobacco use on school property by staff members prohibited. Uh file GBED. Uh this is MASC only and they recommend adoption.
Um personal use of technology. Oh, sorry. I got to go. I keep forgetting to read this thing. GBE personal use of technology. MASSE only. They recommend adoption. All right. GB GD. Nope. I can't put the line through it. It makes it hard to
tell the difference from some of the letters. GBGB, use of safety equipment. So, there are the two policies here on the back sheet. These policies address different topics uh although they have the same title.
Recommended adoption of model policy and the committee discussed relocating Muan's version to handbooks which I think is >> good. All right. >> Um, domestic GBGE
domestic violence leave policy. This is MASC only and they recommend adoption. So the note uh the school committee should seek advice of counsel deliberate and determine whether or not to change the following language in the first paragraph as the school committee in
consultation with the superintendent may choose to make this type of leave paid or unpaid and two make the employee exhaust other leave options or not. So that's something that a decision needs to be made
and I think given time maybe it's something that we could add to our December 8th and make it a quick vote. That should be >> relatively easy. >> I say that knowing that I'm going to regret that in two weeks. >> Well, we have another meeting in
December for second reads. So wouldn't it just go in then? >> Oh, hang on. Well, no, but this this would be outside this policy that on payment for like that's a separate issue. >> I think it's actually in here in writing. I think we'd have to do that
and actually add it here. What council would recommend? >> Okay. >> I think that's why that note is there. >> And that note, I mean, can you reach out to attorney Macro and get a doesn't need to be like a formal legal opinion. It doesn't need we don't
need to >> spend the $1,000 getting that. >> But >> yeah, I I have to I don't um I know during the subcommittee I had to step out for a minute. Colleen was still with you. So there's a whole section here that I just missed the conversation. So
I don't know if there was a conversation with Colleen while you guys were in the subcommittee meeting about this one in particular. If you don't remember it, it's not a big deal. I'll just consult with her and Mike Maro and we'll go from there. All right, GBGF, family and medical
leave. It's MASC only and they recommend adoption. Then we have GBI, staff participation in political activities, MASC only and they recommend adoption. GBJ
personnel records MSC only recommend adoption GBK staff complaints and grievances. So our policy is very similar to their policy. uh they recommend and discussing
um my personal opinion is I think their policy is more developed than ours saying essentially the same thing just in a nicer way. >> I agree. So we move forward with GBK uh on the
recommendation. >> GCA professional staff positions is MASC only recommend adoption. GCB is nonprofessional personnel compensation guides and contracts.
There's a typo in there. Um, so it's Mthuan only. She recommends our discussion, but does note that this is covered elsewhere. I would think that this would be covered in their CBAs. >> It should be removed. I agree.
>> And it, as evidenced by the red lines, >> right, >> this was removed. >> Yep. GCBA professional staff salary schedules MASC only recommend adoption. >> All right.
GCBB employment of principles MASC only recommend adoption. GCBC professional staff supplementary pay plans MASC only recommend adoption. GCB
financial aspects of personnel contracts. Um this is Mthuan only. Negotiations are in section H and they MASC recommends removal. >> GCC leave of absences. This is Mthuan only. This is also covered NRCBAs and
they recommend removal and GCCE methan only also in our CBAs recommend removal. File GCE professional staff recruiting posting of vacancies. The MASC version
is more expanded >> but they recommend a discussion. And given that this is a pain point for I think specifically unit C. >> So um this was actually one that um
Colleen had three or so to for us to talk about that day. This was one of them. So this is reflecting that discussion. Okay, >> there was a conversation because uh there was no reason for us to pull out
all of those staff support staff all of the ones previous that's why those were removed. So we just put staff recruiting and then that last sentence there just said and other professional and support employees. So this we felt actually
covers all of it and then you know we are working with collective writing agreements and such. That's why we don't need all those individual ones. For some reason, it was they separated it before with support staff, professional staff. It just didn't make sense. Like we're doing all the same sort of things with
all staff if so that one was one and I changed that and what you have here is that change that was requested. >> Perfect. Thank you. >> You're welcome. >> All right. GCF, professional staff hiring MASC only.
Recommended adoption. GCG substitute building based educators professional staff employment. This is MASC only and they recommend adoption. Um the call out here is theirs was substitute professional staff. >> We we added the BBE
>> because that is the model that we operate under not necessarily that everybody operates under >> GCGD hiring and evaluation of coaches. This is Mthuan only. Hiring staff is the perview of the superintendent and they
recommend removal. >> GCIA staff professional development opportunities. Um MASC policy is more philosophical and leaves details to the contracts and superintendent. They recommend the MASC version.
>> I think I think there was a not struck out. >> Yes. Yeah. >> Right. Isn't that what she she would do red and strike out? >> They don't use track changes. They [clears throat] use actually >> So that one I just so everybody understands. She's saying remove this one and adopt the one on the flip side, right? >> Yep. >> Is that right?
>> Yep. >> Yes. Yeah. >> All right. GCID conference reporting methan only conferences and reimbursements are the purview of the superintendent and the CBAs. Uh recommend removal.
>> Yep. C GCJ professional personnel tenure. Mic model policy addresses professional status. It leaves the details of tenure to the contracts.
>> Recommend removal. >> I move. >> The new GCJ is the MASC model policy replacing the previous. GCK professional staff assignment and transfers
MASC only and they recommend approval. Uh GCO evaluation of professional staff MASC only recommend adoption. GCQD professional personnel resignation.
Uh this is Mthuan only and it is usually covered in the CBAs which Colleen confirmed that it is >> and the committee uh should discuss and my recommendation is removal. >> Remove >> GCQF suspension and dismissal of
professional staff members. MASC only recommend adoption. GCRD tutoring for pay MASC only. Recommend adoption. Um the note at the bottom here, a teacher cannot tutor in their own
district if the district is going to pay for the tutoring unless the district has included a provision in the teachers collective bargaining agreement providing a set amount of extra pay for tutoring by teachers that will be included in the teachers regular paycheck. GDA
support staff positions MASC only recommend adoption. GBD support staff contracts and compensation plans. Um the MASC model is more expansive and they recommend removal of theirs and replacement of
removal of ours with replacement of theirs. On the next page is the new GB GDB file. >> And I apologize. I don't know why overtime is highlighted. I thought I removed that before we printed
>> question that she had for us, but it is fine. >> And then we have GDD. Um this was MASC only but the group has not recommended this for adoption and
the reason being there is that their vacation days are all covered in their CBAs >> GDE support staff recruiting um this was recommended for removal and it's covered in GCE
GDF non-professional recruitment hiring methan only and it's recommended for removal because it's also covered in GCE. >> And last but not least, GDO evaluation of support staff. >> Sorry, I distracted you. Sorry.
>> Um, MAC only and they recommend adoption. >> And on that note, it brings us to the end of G. Uh, I don't think we pulled anything out, >> so we will do a roll call. Wait, can I just I'm Can I back up for one sec? The
last one, GDO. >> Yes, >> that was another one that was just want to make sure you know that red is supposed to be there. >> That was actually a note >> before and after discussion. We believe that note should actually be part of the
policy so people know have the context if that makes sense to you guys. >> Right. Alicia gave that to us originally. That that's a note that like the note >> it was at the bottom. We moved it up. >> We moved it up. So that was something Colleen and I definitely talked through
as well last week before. I just went so it went in red because it's a change, but it was originally in the note section. Okay. So we didn't change the language. We just thought let's make it part of the policy so there's context. >> Okay. >> All right. Roll call. Vaglio. Dunovan.
>> Yes. >> Keegan. >> Yes. >> Maxwellia. Yes. Well, that may regard. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> I only have one that I am looking at, right? >> We are now going into H. Let me just do
this >> little one. I know we did the big ones. >> Section H. >> Two little ones left >> form. All right. I need a motion to accept section H in form. So moved.
>> I'm taking W as a second. >> Two teeny ones. >> Okay. Ha. Negotiation goals. This is MASC only. It's introductory and establishes the section's purpose. They recommend
adopting. Um HB is prof professional personnel negotiation legal status. So the MASC policy establishes legal status from the perspective of the committee. So we we they recommend the MASC version. So
remove that and replace with the HB on the next page. Um, and then the next one is H A HF. >> Is that H AE or HF? Because >> I think we're we are renaming it H AE.
>> Okay. >> I think we had it noted wrong. If I have to just confirm that, but I think it's H AE. which but this one also says methun only procedural and more aligned with the
ground rules often adopted during negotiations. >> I have to check that one. >> Yeah. So when I was looking at this, my two cents is that it is procedural and the ground rules especially with the
changes that MTA is operating under. Like I I don't think this belongs in here. >> I know that this was a >> Oh, that's right. Because this was ours. >> This was a new one. Sorry. >> And I understand why we did it at the time when we did it
>> because we were trying to manage the social media >> but >> I don't think this belong. So my recommendation would be to remove >> agreg school committee negotiation negotiating agents. This is MASC only and they
recommend adoption. That brings us to the end of section H. So final comments on H. >> All right. Do roll call. Ulio Dunovan. >> Um, wait. Do we need to Sorry. Do we
need to amend because we removed um HF? >> No, can't hurt. >> Yeah, because it wasn't part I mean you guys said it out loud. So that would be I wrote remove. >> Yeah, >> that's what you >> All right. I need a motion to amend for the removal of section HF. >> So moved.
>> Second. >> No, wait. No, >> it's it's it's I think we need to be specific because you adopted HF which is MASC policy. You removed methan only a >> that's it. Okay. >> Oh, H A
>> I think we coded it HF. >> Right. >> Right. There was something here with the coding but our whatever is here under HE. We're removing it. That's our policy. We're adopting MASCF. >> That is new. That wasn't >> Okay. Yeah. >> Yes.
>> Am I good on that? >> Yes. And I made a little note of the only one. >> Okay. >> So, whoever is actually going to take my my notes here and turn them into real minutes can >> Yep. >> read my not. >> Yes. >> Okay. So, I now I need a motion to remove H AE. We had a moved by member
Keegan, second by member Donovan. Now, we'll do the roll call. >> All Dunovan. >> Yes. >> Keegan, >> yes. >> Maxwell Chabilia. Yes. Wlette and Mayor Bard. >> Yes. >> All right. Now we need a motion to accept H as amended.
>> So moved. >> Slio Donovan. >> Yes. >> Keegan, >> yes. >> Michael, yes. Wlette and Mayor Bard, >> yes. >> All right. Now we are going to go section L.
do a motion. So, this is going to be section >> L >> in form. >> Yep. >> So, moved. >> Keegan. Need a second. >> Yes. >> All right. LA educational agency
relationship goals MASC only recommend adoption. >> Yep. >> LB relations with other schools and school districts. >> MASC recommend adoption.
>> Yes. >> LBC relations with non-public schools. MASC recommend adoption. >> Yes. >> LDA, Student Teaching and Internships.
MASC recommend adoption. >> Yes. >> And LH, Educational Accreditation Agency relations. Uh, so this is MDU and only NESC. The accreditation is at the discretion of the committee in the district but is
not required. So they recommend we should discuss. >> So the discussion is yes, we want to retain full accreditation from NES. >> Okay. >> We're in the middle of the process now. So I don't know why we wouldn't want to
remain fully accredited. >> So not to argue against it, but can you just tell us what it what that means and what it does for us? >> It it just allows us to have some continuity of expectations. teams come into to schools and the high school does self-reflection. They do um some goal
setting and reports. Uh it used to be much more comprehensive than it is now, meaning time consuming and teams and days. Um NA um NEAS has actually kind of compressed the process and compressed the expectations so it's really more
purposeful. Um so we just went through the self assessment process. They came for their site visit. We have some goals. They'll come back in I hope Dr. Gabsy's watching right now, but they'll come back in I think two years to actually see if we've met our
goals of developing a portrait of a learner and um some specific things at the high school level. Um doing all of that just helps us attain that accreditation. So it's just another checkpoint for us like we it's another checkpoint for us that we are you know on track. There's people who are on
those teams that come from other high schools >> you know. So I think our team had some I think some members from Maria High School and >> another Northshore high school. So it's just it's a nice connection >> u for area high schools to have that and
again the process is not as elaborate and and big uh as it was in the past. >> Does the accreditation do anything for our kids the fact that they've graduated from an accredited school or anything
like that? Um, I would say yeah, any kind of consistent accreditation organization is going to help us. We used to do it for our kindergarten program, but that unfortunately went by the wayside. But, >> right. Um, because we were doing two simultaneously. We're doing our high school accreditation and our
kindergarten nyak accreditation years ago. >> Um, I I honestly I I don't remember. Uh, we did it for several years and then I I'm not sure why we stopped. So, I'd have to go back in the records to look, but >> okay.
>> Um, it it became more of a like for a private kindergartens, you know, like it so didn't quite fit our mold in a public school setting to have that um the way we organize our schools. >> Um, but I would say we should keep it. I
just I think having that we do say NIA accredited high school, you know, in our program of studies and >> Okay. >> It's out there. >> All right. And yes, >> and just how How long is the accreditation process? How many years? >> I like I When was the last time we
started the process? >> So, we're in it now. So, >> no, but this is >> um it's it's a five or 10. >> I wish she was sitting here. >> Oh, sorry. >> Um No, >> I'm just curious. >> She's at home yelling at the TV. >> Okay. >> But even now, it's a it's the years are
still the same, but what you have to do during that process again is a little different. It's it's much more uh I think the the work the team that Mr. Caret had in place working with Dr. Gowski, M Dumont, Miss Moore, they were
all heads of sort of the NEAS committees getting the information, doing the self assessment, talking about it during department meetings. That all happened. They came for a visit last year, right? We we sat and we uh I think it was a two or three day visit. Um and then it re
resulted in a report which I believe I shared with the school committee or Dr. Lassie shared with the school committee. You know, here's what we saw. Here's what we matched. Here are some recommendations to continue working on. Right? So they give you this >> again snapshot of here's what you want to see. Here's
where it aligns with what high schools should be doing. Right? And and in two years time, we're going to come back and see how you've met your goals and we'll make sure that you maintain your NEAS accreditation. Go ahead. Does >> that make sense? >> Yep. >> And again, Dr. Gowski can give you way
more uh history and background. She has been involved with NEAS, you know, since she started at the high school. >> All right. Well, on that note, we need a roll call to accept section L in form. Zaglio Donovan. >> Yes.
>> Keegan, >> yes. >> Maxwellia, yes. Well, and Mayor Bugard, >> yes. and unanimous. Back to you. >> Is there any other business from the committee? >> With no further business to discuss, may
I have a motion and a second to adjourn the special meeting, a special session of November 18th, 2025. >> So moved. >> Second. >> Moved by memberilia, second by member Donovan. Roll call. >> Daglio. Donovan. Yes. >> Keegan. Yes.
>> Maxwellia. Yes. Wlette. Mayor. Yes. All >> right. The meeting is adjourned at 6 >> 10 >> 10. >> Good night, Mth.
