Okay. Okay. The appointment, the agenda is approved. We will move to item number three, presentation. Item number three a, tentative interviews and appointment. Item number a, terminated. My first question is, are you interested in serving on this board primarily to gain experience for a higher political assistant? Good afternoon. Good afternoon. What is your understanding of the role of the board of the members right now?
Thank you. When someone challenges your opinion, what are you typical advice? So I'm just a teacher. So I believe in the word How would you use data to determine your decision
making? So Okay.
What does respect for leadership look like to you until you say that you've demonstrated that consistently? Okay. Well, thank you for the question. So Madam President?
Yes. The questions have to be what the candidate is focusing on about board, not about individuals. Not about individuals. How could you get access to a member on this school board? Well, I'm a Medicare. I'm a community member at Community Avenue. I have a great register with our community. I have a great register with Tyler, spoke of this a little earlier when she
spoke about, security and safety. But my question is, what would be some of your strategic strategic strategies, in safety or security as a board a school board member? Well, first, I mean, as a board, we should request, security education reports, at least every Yes.
So this is the first question that Thank you.
I believe the rest of our questions. Does anybody else have any further questions for me to do? Okay. I don't know if anybody has any nomination. We're see. We have only one. I don't think I'm sorry. We said that we would accept it. No. You said do we have any nominations? Yep. Oh, I don't know. Well, we only have one person. That's all I'm saying. Right. Is anybody gonna nominate that person? I I not well, I actually just wanted to just, put a motion to move, but, I nominate seven keys as, the next board member, for the old person.
Okay? And the motion is when nomination was made by Chris to corporate. And then in the second Okay.
Okay. Okay. Well, first, I would like to say thank you for taking the time to, apply, this will appreciate it. There are a lot of points, that you did raise in regards to, the questions that were asked tonight. There were some that really stuck out, tuning, and that was the question was about the one hundred days. And you you answered us by spending LinkedIn together. I think that was, very powerful, because that question is that was raised was in
regards to, you know, the the adversities that we are, challenging right that we are in a challenge right now. And then you talked about team building, collaborative collaboratively. You didn't use the word, consensus, but I thought of the word consensus because at this moment in time, this is going to need consensus in front of me, togetherness, meaning when I say this, meaning the the governing of this board is gonna need,
for the ability to, mend the bridges. Also, you talked about leadership. You talked about accountability. You talked about the word respect. You talked about the word moving forward. You also talked about, order, which would be the Robert's rule of order. You talked about your children. You spoke about something that probably was really, really hard for you to talk about, which is the question was why did you leave?
Sometimes, you know, I can see that even in life, all of us have to make tough decisions. And as you get older and you grow up, that is the thing. It's a tough decision. Then you spoke about the security. The security is is is the number one thing, especially not just with, you know, just what's going on around the world. We we do need to have a type of, security. And, the last but not least, you spoke of minor major. That question that was asked, which is true, you wouldn't be able to answer, unless
there may be a situation, perhaps. Maybe the questions that have been, you know, what what were some of the misunderstandings or the major things that you have already had or coming through as far as an advantage. But I, I would unequivocally, love for you to be a part of this board, based on the abilities that you do have, the abilities that I believe that you will bring to this board. Thank you.
There were fires that needed to be put out, some larger than others. And we're just now getting to the point where we have small fires to put out, and I would like to see that a larger fire needed to be put out with the division that we currently already have. That's my only concern No.
It wasn't. In the public, it was in the in the press conference in the news. My name was fingered out as well as Tracy's on the crack. It's telling me my my trip. I just felt like you it was totally different route maybe that it could've been taken. You know? If if there was ever a moment where you felt like somebody wasn't getting transferred or somebody wasn't in, just completely honest, you know, our phone number. You can't hold. What's going on? You know? But to to bring us to who are already, we're already in a difficult spot,
but we're just bringing more difficulty into a a a very, very tough decision or, you know, spot. It was a it was a lot. You know? I feel like you could've took took a a better route, and I honestly, think that maybe I, you know, I could be wrong, but I felt like that you were doing enough for your political standing, which you wanted pulled up doing. But, you know, I know that you know that you wanted to state rep. I maybe it was because of that.
Maybe I I mean, I had as well as for Scott who has children in the district as well as all the residents who have children in the district.
So there's no difference when it comes to that. I do. I got one more question. The individual so I guess just anybody work for voting rights for you. Would they have to worry about any of these tabulations? Any letters being put out about nobody voting for you Okay.
Well, a discussion. I didn't know a discussion. I had a question. I'm sorry. Point it point it point it order. Alright. It's three. No. No. No. Yes. No. Okay. So their motion is gonna carry. The vacancy remains. The rear, we have until April 7. We we have until April 7. No. No. I was just saying the holiday, it it doesn't. It's not a. So, I was okay.
Phone number 4 on his participation. Yes. There's a client that you don't have to call. Because the old park school board of education values public meetings, not just meetings in public. We welcome public comments on school issues. Because I ask to express themselves in a civil manner for due process for the difference in the privacy of others who may be affected by public comments. The public comment portion of the meeting will not be using their personal attacks against school boards, member, or other school district employees that disrupt the order of the meeting and are wholly unrelated to the manner in which the member works, employee performs his
or her duties. Teachers should be aware that this statement violates the rights of others under the law of decimation or invasion of privacy, such comments may result in legal liabilities. Most comments can be consulted stated in three minutes, and the board respectfully asks respectfully asks that comments remain focused on the topic or issues and not be directed at for today's personnel or board members. Somebody just had my phone. The Thank you.
Bye. I'm sorry. We can't call our board members by your name. Okay. Well, But you made comments about my son because that was Sebastian here.
So when you guys are speaking about what he does to do, makes you do without what you do for him. Y'all are Okay.
Well, first, I wanna say that I am totally in disarray at this moment. We as parents do for our child to attend college, whether it be community college, universities, Institute of U.
I have a total of 10 nephews. Morehouse Clark University. So you have in front of you a person who can be yourself, your daughter. I'm not gonna go into my history about all of that because I'm here to let us know that now we don't have enough time to choose anyone else.
ISD is going to be making that choice for us. I don't I don't foresee the firm finding, being answered at this time because it it was a step to this. But I do wanna say, and I will be remiss to say this, this is an educational district. Everywhere you look, you see a teacher where you have a life. Everywhere you look, you see a principle that you have a life, or even talk
about a principle that's no longer here. We as kids always wanted to be teachers, cashiers. We always wanted to be somebody. And I dislike that we have to have ISB to choose to purchase. And once they make that choice, we have nothing to say about it. We can't do nothing about it. So if that person happens to be our nominee tonight, we still have to accept.
There's nothing we can do, and I am disappointed. I'm highly disappointed. I just wanna say to help we have to educate ourselves. We have to know why we really are here. There are times where we all wanna be in it, but our failures out. Or there's times where we just don't know how to control our failures because we just don't know. But we have to soak it because the cloud is gonna be there, and we're gonna move out.
And I know Terry did be doing it at home, and we keep our kids there. I'm not sure how old the gentleman is, but I do know that his parents are here. That's his volume to me as a parent. I have two beautiful daughters that came up through Oakland. I'm known in Oprah for being a parent in the hallway with my children. My daughter played law enforcement. She was number one track, basketball. Because our mothers don't teach us this. This thing this is not what you're taught me.
You're not talking that way in in, the household. Yeah. Well, somebody who you just go feed them up. We don't teach that. And if you do, that's not a good thing to do. But I just, I just I just hope, that I just do a point going to this board that So my questions were more so geared around how you would
Right? And here we are. Right? It was it was it was really geared geared. That's what all interview questions they all ask you questions based on, you know, how you would ask if you didn't get the role or things like that. So I did wanna say that my decision was not personal. It was just in time That's what I did earlier, mister Kevin. Mister Keith, you are a very bright and bland. I do wish you'd been to rock as high as you haven't to appoint you. You deserve it. My decision was based on another side of the interview, and this has been not
what I expected when I got appointed for the board. Not at all. Like, a a 100% not what I expected. I didn't know that there was already fires brewing and doing. Okay? Do I think that you would be a good fit? Yes. But with the current board member, I have to say no just because of the conflicts that would could arise, and that would point more negativity on the board. That was that's basically what because we have to be original on the board to act as one. And I think with, I think the current views and opinions of board members as
well as yourself, it would not it would be a little bit difficult to access one. Granted, right now, I'm gonna I had no idea you had all the credentials that you did have. Kudos to you, Clark and my University. And I do wish you the best of luck. Like I said, ISB chooses you. I hope that you do fit in as well. K? Don't give up on the boys. Don't give up on them. K? Okay. And I'll end with I'll end with I'll end with stating my initial thought, which is you cannot tell people, one, how to vote, and two, that they don't like
somebody because they need to vote in their favor. I think that I'm scared to talk to since we're talking about side deals, I
do wanna say that one of our board members felt very, very, very, intimidated in in voting a way that they did not dispute in their part today. I do wanna pay that. Now we're gonna go to item number five, adjournment. The time is now 07:05PM. So the time that was the next word meeting. The next word meeting is
