nutrition services, and she'll pres present you a general update of our food nutrition services program. >> Thank you. Thank you, Ashley, for coming tonight and speaking to the board. You just want to make sure that the
green light is on, please. Thank you. >> I set these up. I don't generally talk in them. So, thank you. >> All right. Good evening. I'm Ashley Schneider, um, director of food and nutrition services, and I'm here to provide an update on what's happening
this school year in the cafeterias. Um, all right. So, we are in year three of Minnesota free meals. Um, and this means that any enrolled student will receive one breakfast and one lunch at no cost each day they're in school. Um,
this does require students to take what is um require or what is deemed a reimburseable meal. And what this means is that um every student needs to have a half cup fruit or vegetable on their tray along with two other food groups.
So we offer the five food groups um and they have to select three of them. One has to be a fruit or a vegetable. Um and in in an effort to mitigate waste, we do have share tables available at all of our schools. Um share bins at the high
school um where students can put any unopened unwanted items that others can grab if they're still hungry. Um, if students do not take the required items for the meal to be considered reimburseable, then they are charged accordingly. So, a lot of times you'll
see just an entree um or just a milk. If a student brings a lunch from home um and doesn't get the meal or at least get three food groups, then we have to charge them the 50 cents for the milk. Um, seconds are available at all schools. Um, however, students need to have money in their account in order to
purchase those. Um, Second Chance Breakfast is back at MHS and Career Academy this school year as it proved to be a huge success at both schools last year. Um, once the bell rings for the first class of the day, breakfast closes
and it's not available to students. So, any students who arrive late um or you know were not hungry at the time, but after that first period class are now hungry. Um, we were seeing an uptick in students needing that. So we um needing access to food in between breakfast and
lunch. So last year we opened second chance breakfast at both schools um and it was open at the sputddy counter between blocks one and two. So at the high school it was right as they were leaving for the buses um to go to career academy. And we noticed an increase of
about 150 to 200 extra students participating in breakfast at the high school um and an additional 50 to 75 extra students participating each day at Career Academy. Um, so we could see that this was needed and so we um have rolled
it out again this year. We have new fun items um and the kids are waiting for us to open the doors for it. >> Um, just a question. >> Would you like questions during the presentation or at the end? >> Sure, that works for me. It's probably best to address as you have questions.
>> Is there any reason why we're having so many students that are coming in hung? I mean, is it because they're late or is it just because >> There's lots of reasons. A lot of times it's late. There is a hard stop. They want, you know, administration wants students to get to class and so we have a hard stop on breakfast. Um, and so
once that bell rings, we close the doors and that kind of so, um, students that are still coming in or different things. Um, there could be students that were arriving late to school because of appointments. Um, there could have been students who just didn't choose because, you know, they wanted 18 other
activities to do before school started versus going. There's a multitude of reasons as to why. Um but just the simple task of opening up our um our counter between blocks one and two, you know, kids found us and so we will be there and we are there again this year.
>> Sounds good. Thank you. >> Yeah, absolutely. Um K4 Elementary snack program. Um this is a hot topic of discussion. It's separate from the Minnesota free meals program. So this um during the school day at our K4 schools,
each student has the ability to participate in a milk or snack. Um we provide it at a cost. Um and the confusion there is that this is participate. So it is separate. Um and so it is uh require permission from the
parent or guardian. Um and the cost of it is 50 cents a day for milk and 50 cents for snacks. So it's up to a dollar. Um and again this is something that parents elect to. Um we do have some scholarship programs that we do
offer to students. Um and we have a process for that. Um where we are able to offer about 150 students this year scholarship for that program. Um so that's uh a awesome benefit that we're able to have thanks to donations. Um the
challenge that we still continue to face with Minnesota free meals program is ensuring that um families complete the application for educational benefits. Um so as you can kind of see here um families are encouraged to complete the application for educational benefits as
it's more than just free meals. Um these are many benefits that families receive if approved from um if approved from completion of the application. Some of those benefits are reduced athletic or testing fees, um sunbucks or peibbt,
uh Amazon telephone internet assistance. Uh it's important for families, uh these are all with the letter. If they're approved, they're able to uh um take advantage of these benefits. It's also important for families to complete as there are many benefits for the district
um such as the funding for schools, extracurricular activities, our summer food service programming. Of course, I'm going to do a shameless plug for that. Um, and after school snack programs and and more. Any questions on that? >> All right,
>> go ahead, Lauren. >> I would just like to say thank you for including that because that was going to be the question that I was going to ask is are there any other additional benefits that we could hook these families in with, but presenting that they have the option to participate in all these other things? >> Yes.
>> Is super great for them to see their benefit. >> Yes, absolutely. And we have this information available on our district website. Um we're working with our social media team to make sure that that is available too so that families know. Um MDE helped us this year with a um
kind of social media toolkit for fill the form and so we'll be taking advantage of that to also try to capture these. Um we've made it a lot easier too where you know um we have gone digital in our application so families can download the app from their phone um and
be able to fill it out and get a letter instantly um just in you know the matter of minutes. And so um we're doing the best that we can to break down any barriers. Um we communicate with schools and let them know you know of students that we feel you know that were last
year and have not completed an application this year. So, we definitely do our due diligence on our end to make sure that we try to capture as many families as we can. >> Um, some not so fun updates to the lunchroom. Um, so we have some updated
nutritional standards that are set in place, some for this year, um, that we've kind of already started to implement, so it wasn't such a big shock to students. Um, but we will be preparing for the upcoming school years that will affect our menus. Um, so there's one that the first one is a
limit for added sugars. This is specifically at breakfast and this is currently in effect effect for the 2526 school year. Um, specifically looking at breakfast cereal, yogurt and flavored milk, which we don't serve flavored milk at breakfast. Um, have all been adjusted
to reflect the nutritional standards that are listed on the slide here. Um, the yogurt actually we implemented midway last year because we had it available. And so these are things that are slowly already um in our menus. Um
so the nice thing is too is that we knew this was coming and our food manufacturers have been working really hard behind the scenes to um to make compliant products. Um so once we're available, we made the switch. Um, MAPS Food and Nutrition Services will be
working on ensuring being compliant for the 2728 school year as we'll have to adhere to a weekly limit of um, 10% of calories from added sugars. And so, um, that's where we'll kind of be seeing the biggest I think. Um, but we also have
been given more flexibility. So, before we were required to have muffins um, basically or grain was a requirement for breakfast. We couldn't serve protein as like a first choice. And so now we have some flexibility to serve protein as a first choice. And so that kind of um
expands to what we can do. So we'll see less of those muffins at breakfast. Although whether the kids will take it, they love the muffins. That's the hard part we we battle. Um so the we will also be working on adhering to the
requirements of limiting sodium by 15% at lunch and 10% at breakfast by July 1st, 2027. Listed on the screen are the grade group new limits. Um, this will be a gradual change that we're working on through our menus. One effort we're
working on is switching to speed scratch cooking, um, which will allow us to control the sodium level and also use spices to help flavor food so students will actually eat it. Um, the nutritional standards could affect portion sizes, which is also a hot topic
that I hear a lot about as well. Um, due to the nutritional standards we're required to adhere, portion sizes aren't as big as students would like. Um, we do provide a variety of fruits and vegetables available each day with an entree to help fill the students up and
seconds are always available at um, for a cost. Any questions on this? >> Um, how where are our sodium levels at? Is this like cutting our sodium levels in half or no in a quarter or
>> um it's less than a quarter. So it's um I can't remember off the top of my head. I apologize. Um but it's we have already worked and it's gradual. So each year we're cutting it by like 5% in order to meet this 15%. Um so that that way again
it doesn't feel so gradual. The biggest things that we'll see is the high school just won't be able to have our orange chicken every day of the week like they do. So that'll be the hardest part to adjust to. So we're going to start, you know, weaning them off of it a little bit so that they can get used to that.
But we have other um entre that we're bringing in too um that will I'll show you some of the things that we're doing too to help to get them excited and stay excited about school lunch. >> Great question. Any other questions? All right. One of my favorite topics.
So, um, we have partnered with this school year so far, Farmer in the Dell, um, to bring produce straight from farm to cafeteria. Literally still has the dirt on it. Um, students have seen many farm to school items on their salad bars
already this school year. October is farm to school month and so we have some special items that will be featured in our lunchrooms. A few items include squash, tomatoes, apples, and lots of potatoes. Um, our goal this year is to serve fresh mashed potatoes all school
year long at our high school. We're spuds. We have to have real potatoes, right? Um, K4 students will also participate in the Great Lakes Apple Crunch, which is a huge regional um, event where kids bite into apples. And so, we have some first kiss apples that
we'll be bringing into our lunchrooms and into our classrooms on that day. Um and then just to brag, um so the this is our corn on the cob we got from farmer in the dell. So students at um the high school career academy ASP and SGR have seen this on their lunchlines.
Um it was really exciting to see kids take it and um we didn't even have that much complaining about all the shucking. So that was super awesome. Um my favorite is the tomatoes. The tomatoes have just been absolutely delicious and vibrant and the kids have
um made so many comments about the different colors and actually have been taking them and eating them. Um so that's been really cool. We've had lots of cucumbers that we've been able to put on our salad bars and there's the before and after um of that. Um and we'll have our goal is to have some of the farm to
school items available every day at every day at at most well every school in October. So each week we'll feature schools that will have them um just because they're not able to obviously we're large school districts so the supply and demand they're not able so we just split it up amongst the schools so
that all the schools are able to um experience these fun things that come in. Um again mashed potatoes um again students were served farm to school potatoes with their chicken bowls a couple weeks ago. Our goal is to provide mashed potatoes at the high school and
then it'll be working through all the schools um to get them. But that is what they came in the crate and then that is what they looked like on the plate. Um Minnesota Thursdays are going to or have continued this school year. So September's Minnesota Thursday featured
a Cloverdale hot dog, corn on the cob, um our buns from Pana Gold, tomatoes, cucumbers from Farm in the Dell, and Johnny Pops. Um, upcoming Minnesota Thursdays include we do our annual Spud Bar, which we do every October. Um, we're doing Sambusas this year, um, from
a a company in Minneapolis, um, some chili, cheeseburgers, and a lot more different things. Um, these are some of the partners that we will be working this year. Um, fresh fruit and vegetable program is back. So, Robert Asp and Ellen Hopkins will both participate in the fresh fruit
and vegetable program for the 2526 school year. This is a grant that we apply each year and the state elects which applicants receive it. Um it's largely based on a school's free and reduced rate on whether they will receive said grant. Um a fresh fruit or vegetable is provided several times a
week for students to try in the classroom. Each month highlights different fruits and vegetables that student will learn about when they are eating them in the classroom. This has been such a fun grant to have in our classrooms the last couple of years. We are so excited to exposing kids to new fruits and vegetables and even the
adults are excited about it too. Um the conversation around fruits and vegetables in the classroom just makes my warm heart or my heart warm. This will start on um October 6th. All right. Um there are many initiatives that food and nutrition services has in
place for the 2526 school year. Students at Ellen Hopkins were welcomed back um into the kitchen with brand new serving lines. This year, the old serving lines were so outdated that they do not make parts for them anymore. So, we had to part with them. Although, they just don't make them. They used to. Um, h
literally half the unit was no longer working. Um, the best part of these new serving lines is the self-service hot veggie station, which you can kind of see it's in the middle. Um, so that students can actually take their own fruit or their own hot veggies themselves, which um promotes
independence and extra scoop of veggies would not hurt anyone. Um, and so they can put those Brussels sprout and roasted broccoli on their trays. We also want to expose them to different fruits and vegetables that they may not have in their homes. So, already on the salad bar this year, um,
that's been a hot topic of discussion are watermelon radishes. Um, they are very spicy. Well, not very spicy, but we're expecting we bite in and we expect them to be sweet. They were not. They were spicy. So getting kids to talk about it, even the high schoolers, I was at Career Academy when we had them out
and um we had a lot of kids talking about watermelon radish and putting them on their plate and so it was really cool and fun to see and it's what brings us joy. Um we have some also some initiatives or fun and exciting things planned. We're
still getting fully staffed in some of our kitchens, so just bear with us while we navigate the shortages. Our numbers are also up this year, which is a fantastic number or problem to have, but the cooks are still navigating through um what the kids are eating and trying to find that sweet spot of making sure
we have enough cheesy French bread in the lunchroom. Um we have a six week cycle menu which helps. So that means that once we're through the first six weeks of school, cooks will have historical data which will help them to and they make notes too so that they make adjustments as they go and help
them in deciding how much food to make. Um we have some new recipes that we'll be testing at all grade levels. One new dish that was recently um rolled out was our uh meatball pararmosa over spaghetti um served with our famous Brussels sprouts. Um, and it was wellreceived and
every a lot of the what was that? Oh, that doesn't taste that bad. Um, was a lot of the feedback that we got, especially with the younger grades. Um, there'll be testing of new cold and hot entre um this year to ensure we're meeting the needs of our students and
that they're enjoying the selections they have to choose from. Another thing we're working on is improving some of the rest um the recipes and entre that we already do. As you'll see in the picture on the right, this is assistant cook Gabby, who was so very happy that I was taking her picture at the time, she looks like my 16-year-old does. Um, she
uh we had this crazy idea to make the grilled cheese on the grill for the day at Career Academy, and she did. She stood over a hot grill for a good hour making about 250 grilled cheese sandwiches. But we had so many comments that day on how delicious the grilled
cheese was and we ran out because um the kids the word got out and so we're just doing little things like that um to tweak to make sure that the food is tasting delicious for our kids as they deserve it. Any questions for me?
>> Doesn't look like it. >> Perfect. Thank you. >> Thank you so much for coming tonight. Item B, certification of the 2025 proposed property tax levy. Dr. Damon, >> thank you. Uh, last school board meeting we brought the calendar. Tonight we
bring you um certification of the preliminary proposed levy. So, the school board is required to certify the to the county auditor the school district's preliminary 2025 payable 2026 property levy by September 30th, 2025. The district will certify ask that the C
maximum levy is certified as certifying the preliminary levy in this manner allows for changes prior to the final levy certific. So information um was attached to uh the agenda regarding the levy. It's important to know that this changes as
things are updated. Um and so the business office um reviews these pretty frequently and this upcoming uh Wednesday Lakes Country Service Cooperative has a has a training where uh you sit with your levy and uh someone from the Minnesota Department of Ed goes
through each line by line of all 30 plus pages. Um also important to note that really this is a snapshot of us as a district, right? Who are our kids? What are our needs? Um what do our buildings look like? What do our programs look like? um in in how this is calculated.
So today we ask uh you to um approve the maximum um in certifying this levy. We'll bring it back in December, but the preliminary figures indicate that the portion of the property tax levy increased less than 1% from a year ago at $23,760,99425
and last year's levy was $23,76084746. So again, this is preliminary. Um in December, we'll bring back to you the final levy um as well as uh the truth and taxation hearing, which doesn't have to be separate, but will be done at the same time uh as certifying that final levy.
>> Thank you. Dave has a question. >> Is it typically that low is less than 1% or is it is that common? It seems low to me, but >> um it depends on the year. Um I don't know that it's low. I feel like last
year we were around 1 or 2% as well. Um and we'll know of course more in December when that final levy comes back because they they really are continuing to look at all of those different pieces until we get to that point. But um it it depends um >> it fluctuates.
Okay. Thanks. >> Anybody else? >> I'm ready to make a motion. >> Thank you. Um, I move to approve the maximum for the 25 2025 payable 2026 property tax levity as presented.
>> Thank you, Keith. >> I second. >> I have a motion by Cassidy, seconded by Keith. Move to approve the maximum for the 2025 payable 2026 property tax levy as presented. Any further discussion from the board? Seeing none, all those in favor signify
by saying I. >> I. >> Those opposed, same sign. That motion carries. Item C, award snow and ice management contract. Steve Moore, >> thank you. Uh, at the end of October, our current contract for snow and ice
removal in the district that will expire. So, we issued a request for bids uh on September 4th and receive and the bid closing was on September 18th at 100 p.m. We received two bids, one from Valley Green and Associates, and one
from JT Lawn Services by the closing date and time. The low bidder was JT Lawn Services who is our current provider. And the uh bid amounts are summarized in the table below. Um, I won't go through all of them, but
we budget to that middle number. If you look uh at the table that under year one, it says 40 in to 59.9 in. That's what we budget to. So, the last couple years, we've gotten below that. So, what happens is the contractor owes us money,
we just deduct that off the first bill in the next cycle. So, that's recovered that way. So um to sum simplify it uh for 200 so year 1 will be estimated at 214,000
year two at 221,000 and year three at 228,000. Now comparatively we just finished our year three of the previous contract ended at 238,000. So we're coming in 24,000 less
than the we ended this contract year. Most likely that's because JT's been doing this for uh six years at least to my knowledge. And then, you know, so they know it well and they can sharpen their pencils when they put their bids in. So, additionally, we cut out I cut
out the parking lot across from the career academy. There's no need to plow that snow. So, that's just going to be uh let go. And then I cut some off of Vista because we don't need all that parking lot. So that'll about a third of the parking lot to the east will be just
used for snow storage because it's not required for parking. So that'll that cuts out 30,000 square feet of snow removal. So um but uh the request is to award the contract to JT Lawn Service and I'd be happy to answer any questions.
>> Thank you, Steve. Any questions, Keith? So, it looked like in I I can't see the screen or anything, but um from what I recall when I reviewed it, it looks like year or u there was a like a one and a B, maybe a I can't remember what the
term was because I can't see it on my screen here, but the square footage seemed like it was lower for the first one, but it was higher amount and then the second one was less. >> Yeah, that's a good catch because there's actually an error that I caught um before this meeting. So zone one and
zone 2 square footage in the tab table is incorrect. >> Okay. >> So I went and recalculated it based so the real square footage that I recalculated is in the RFB itself. So the biders knew what they were bidding on that. >> Um yeah. So great question. So those
numbers um >> that was my other question which you just said was both biders got the same. >> Yeah. So really I can't find the spreadsheet I just did but I do remember the number. So zone one is now 1.2 million square feet. >> Okay. >> And zone two went down by 20,000 square
feet. So that's you're correct. So zone one is bigger. >> Appreciate it. >> Thanks. >> Have you been happy with the service? >> Yes. >> Perfect. Then I move to motion. >> Go ahead.
>> All right. I motion to approve uh the uh snow and ice management contract to JT Lawn Services as presented. >> Melissa, >> I second. >> I have a motion by Laura Lee, seconded by Melissa. Move to approve the snow and ice management contract to JT Lawn
Services as any further discussion from the board. Seeing none, all those in favor signify by saying I. >> I. Those opposed, same sign. That motion carries. Item D, resolution appointing election judges for the November 4th,
2020 school district special election. Dr. Damer. >> Thank you. Um, tonight we present to you the resolution appointing election judges for November 4th, 2025. Um, resolution is attached. >> Thank you, Keith.
Move to approve the resolution appointing election judges for the November 4th, 2025 school district special election as presented. Thank you, Cassidy. >> A second. >> Have a motion by Keith, second by Cassidy. Move to approve the resolution appointing election judges for the
November 4th, 2025 school district special election as presented. Any further discussion from the board? >> I feel like presented as a loose term there, but >> seeing none, all those in favor signify by saying I. >> I.
>> Those opposed, same sign. >> That motion carries. Item E, first reading of policies. Dr. redeemer. >> Um, thank you. Uh, first policy is, and I believe starts on page 169, if you have your packet in front of you. Um, uh, policy 101-2, the naming of school
buildings and school grounds. Um, there were some minor language revisions and updates to section two. Uh, general statement, addition of section 3 definitions and language revisions, updates to sections four, five, six, and seven. >> Thank you. Any questions from the board on that?
Worley, >> have we been able to enter into contracts to lease naming rights with sponsoring agents in order to generate alternative sources of revenue for the district before? >> Um, Brenda, is that something I could
have you speak to? I don't know if you have been involved in that, but you likely are. So I think the most um probably the most recent um one is some of the uh um naming or logo rights on the on the
career academy. Um so we have um currently um I'm doing this off the top of my head but um DSG, Sanford, Even Tide and uh Cardinal IG um have all um you know given at the level or we have
you know partnerships with them at the level where their their logos are on um the walls of our career academy. So that that would be the most um current example. >> Okay. So this has this has been a a procedure that has been happening for a
while. Okay. >> At least since the career academy has been around in the right >> I think to um I think there so I would say there's a very formal process in place um since the high school and the
career academy. But previously there were options or processes to do naming or having access um as you'd probably see on some of our buildings previously. >> That's >> Yep. >> Thank you, >> Keith. So, is that is that similar? I
know when we toured Alec almost 10 years ago now, it seems like um they had like a donor wall. Is that similar to what we have or >> Yes. So, if you walk into the career academy in the entryway and you look um you know right to the right which would
be the uh south um wall in the main entrance the the major donors are there and then if you walk you know across the the um secured doors in into the um um area with with the big overhead doors
right next to the um um food service area. There's another wall there that is our spud partners. Um, so then there's various levels and so there's a lot of of different logos of of um, companies there that have partnered um, with us. So those are the two areas that that you
can see anytime you go into the career academy and see all of the different private partnerships and I mean that those are are vital to the programs um, there and so it's a great way to recognize them. >> Yeah. And we definitely appreciate the donors when when we can get them.
>> Thank you Lordly. um that is donors and what this is talking about is leasing leasing our property for them to have our name on it. Donating money is different, right? Um than to
buy a building for school, right? I Yes. So I think the difference would be and again Brena could jump in on this. So sometimes like a space lease might be uh boards in the hockey arena for example where maybe it's not specific like it's not forever but it is
um at that time. we don't have or like uh family healthcare which doesn't necessarily lease space but we have a partnership with and they've got their um signage outside of our building and part of that partnership in that lease is a contract on how we work together
and the same would be for some of our work with MState where they have access to our classrooms um and we enter into contract for space leas um with that so not necessarily naming but in those cases you might have labeling or naming for those spaces as they're being leased
if that makes sense. >> Okay. >> So, we're not going to end I'm sorry. >> Would that be similar to like in Alex where they have the name on the football field? Is that like type of the same type of leasing space? >> Potentially something that could be removed and not named permanently.
>> Correct. >> Um yeah, the way this reads it just sounds like there there's no like parameters on it. And so, uh, my kids could be going to Ellen Hopkins one day and be going to Verizon Elementary the next day. Um, the way that it looks like
they could just lease the name of a building if we decided that that was a good way to generate revenue. >> I think we have a policy on that, don't we? We have a separate We have a separate procedure on naming buildings, I believe. I don't have that in front of me. There's a whole what I I don't know
the name the number of that policy, but there's a whole thing about history. The you know, a lot of our buildings are named after um people who are important in the um history of our our district and and so forth. So that's that's a separate um a separate policy. >> I guess I guess maybe we're getting a
little confused between the facility an educational pro is a facility a building or is it a you know like a gymnasium? I I I guess I is that where we're getting the confusion, Lauri? >> Yeah.
>> So, I don't I don't I think we already have it that we can our buildings are named through a process in a different >> That is correct. >> Okay. It's all in here
>> because I think isn't C kind of like the guidelines for naming a building and the guidelines for that as well? when I read through it, I I thought I read that anyway. So >> I think naming naming of the buildings in particular are covered um in A and B
is specific to um facility and exchange for financial or other contribution that would be specific to those areas that we identified whether it be MState um and our nursing services or um family health care. um that that has never been the
process for naming buildings as that process is entered into as we open buildings. Um so I we could get you more specific information on how that was happened, but that's not the intent of the language. Um and I suppose we would
be open to what could make it more clear um in that language if if that was necessary. Pardon me. >> I'll read into it more. >> Okay. >> I think it's something that maybe just some different wordage or something
could change it, but >> if everybody else is good with that, we'll move on. >> 105, please. >> Um, yes, this is 105, also noted as 102.1. Um, the policy review committee is asking that this be moved um under the maps uh 102 equal employment
