00:01:40.000 --> 00:02:14.080
531 and this is the special meeting on June 22nd, 202. Can you speak for the educational call here agenda? There are no objections for doing so. Objection.

2
00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:31.599
All right. Agenda is approved. Item number three, presentations. A public hearing on the 2026 2027 budget. A 2025 2026 amendment will be

3
00:02:31.599 --> 00:04:44.479
2027 proposed budget. Sorry to hear. Our fund 6.5 million $3,000. So, I'm sorry. Sorry to interrupt. So,

4
00:04:44.479 --> 00:06:00.039
the information that you're reading, we don't have 256. Oh, no. It's okay. It wasn't there when I last talked about million35,000 The reason

5
00:06:21.759 --> 00:08:40.279
that I'd like to use your $100. So anytime we recall looking 26.7 officer. We also

6
00:08:40.959 --> 00:10:43.480
Our final amendment fund balance We are looking at million. And you know, And now we are speech. 13%.

7
00:11:03.760 --> 00:12:40.639
2025 million%. budget. We So work always included work out of it.

8
00:12:40.639 --> 00:14:14.600
My question ision So, I'm going to Okay. So a year ago it would have been funding the revenue but is it So if the Michigan was included, but it also

9
00:15:02.000 --> 00:16:33.000
Okay. So, All of that is details. So we have about 200 right 22. So we look at the reduction.

10
00:16:43.600 --> 00:17:36.200
For example, doesn't necessarily always support all the numbers. So when we look at a detail taking a look at all of our third contract. Are we contract?

11
00:17:37.520 --> 00:17:57.120
We have over bus routes that are efficient. We have three kids on one transportation. We review all contracts carefully. We'll do everything. So, I know one of the big

12
00:17:57.120 --> 00:18:15.600
Those things are legally required, right? So I couldn't cut, you know, services for students, but that may mean services $150 an hour to provide OT, maybe I can

13
00:18:15.600 --> 00:19:12.200
negotiate with that person to bring their cost down to $100 an hour. Or I can negotate with a third party vendor to provide those things or maybe transportation for contingent% reduction. The other part we

14
00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:50.480
can cut more people across the board. We said, "Okay, this area was $4,000 and we could apply that. It could be a number of the classroom and I don't want to get

15
00:19:50.480 --> 00:20:08.600
teachers understand but I'm looking can go here, but we still have to approve contracts and contract a lot of the contract have so little I'm a little

16
00:20:09.679 --> 00:20:27.679
balanced but in the balancing it over here I see everyone and I understand that you know everyone I got it. You got to pay. I understand. I know some of this stuff was in place

17
00:20:27.679 --> 00:20:44.600
before, but I don't want to keep going down the same before. That's where I'm at with it. I know other board members, but what I want to notice

18
00:20:51.039 --> 00:22:28.280
if How do how do we come to a balance and have maybe turn We are going to to say, "Okay, on the surface

19
00:22:29.520 --> 00:23:13.640
of that we understand behind that prior. contract. That's what I got to do. It doesn't priorities requ

20
00:23:22.400 --> 00:24:09.080
Okay. Don't get my question that we're not going in the right direction. Okay. I'm not I'm not denying that. But I just need to know. Okay. June 30th and then over here we don't

21
00:24:11.200 --> 00:25:12.080
always such a quick We know that request come back with the detailed plan and whatever we agree They're targeting for me and I need a lot of clarity. Uh,

22
00:25:12.080 --> 00:25:27.679
one I hear the board member trustee Tyler is that as long as the numbers are right but then the numbers can't be right if we are doing a 13 cut

23
00:25:27.679 --> 00:25:44.880
where are we cutting who are we cutting and what is the what is the the budget I mean if you don't have like what is is this the let me ask one question first who is

24
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:58.720
no one that this is where we as a board will see where it can be. But then if that is the fact, why would we approve knowing that there's going to be such knowing that

25
00:25:58.720 --> 00:26:16.799
tonight we are supposed to uh approve contract in some areas in some areas two year contract. So, I'm confused because if there's a cut and we're in an environment of cuts, then we

26
00:26:16.799 --> 00:26:34.559
need not to approve raises. I'm just the math to me. But, uh, somebody I mean, who who's and why would the board come back after the fact to say, "Oh, by the way, we know we didn't have it, but I

27
00:26:34.559 --> 00:26:49.840
think you should just start here, start there." I mean, I think the administration because we've always been that is the fact of who's being cut because we don't know but yet we're we the board are supposed to uh approve

28
00:26:49.840 --> 00:27:06.720
something tonight uh that we don't even know it's blankets and then also wasn't in board book until today and we didn't have time to even look over this material according to the bylaws it says that we are supposed to look our information

29
00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:26.440
to the meetings but going back to question who's getting cut and what's getting cut and where >> we need amended in March. Well, first of all just got this clear picture

30
00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:57.960
on that show at the June 27 everybody that's still only $2.5 million that's still not going to get us

31
00:28:01.200 --> 00:28:37.760
at the end of those numbers it would be fool us to come up with priorities say you don't have a job now with salary. So start over and automatically roll over. We're and

32
00:28:37.760 --> 00:29:03.120
nobody know. So to to come behind that in regards to the fiduciary duty of the board, we are talking about cut at any point at any time where there is

33
00:29:03.120 --> 00:29:18.159
cuts, there cannot be no races. There's a We are in the middle the beginning, excuse me, of a superintendent uh search. Um I believe uh going through

34
00:29:18.159 --> 00:29:34.399
uh reading my material uh doing my research with MASB um it was kind of like the new superintendent in the chole and in handcuffs where they wouldn't be able to move if we were to approve all the

35
00:29:34.399 --> 00:29:51.760
contract. Number one. Number two, if we're talking about cut, you have a household, you have a budget. If you're talking about cut, you can't go. And I recall last month or the month before last when we were budget, we were told

36
00:29:51.760 --> 00:30:13.600
no. So, we go from no, you know, excuse me, now we can give raises yet we're not looking. We're not looking To me, it puts the board at a risk. It puts us at a risk because

37
00:30:13.600 --> 00:30:30.640
it doesn't make sense. The board who approves a blank step pretty much and come back and say, "Oh, by the way, oh no, cut this, cut that." I'm just saying I I did my research. I'm not just talking out the back of my neck, but I'm telling you this year, we we still

38
00:30:30.640 --> 00:31:09.039
haven't found out who's being cut. Still haven't heard or do you not know? Then we would align that align with a

39
00:31:09.039 --> 00:32:21.919
final expend. I did not come in here. Now what we can say are a little bit of where we are. It's got to be, you know, some hard conversations, some hard

40
00:32:29.039 --> 00:32:43.360
I'm sorry. I wasn't done. Not to cut you off, but I saw you. No, it's okay. >> I didn't want to interrupt you, but I still didn't get my answer. Who's getting what's being cut? I mean, you said the elementary

41
00:32:43.360 --> 00:32:59.600
I see that up there. I see everyone or everything that's dealing with students. Is is it an equal cut? Like will we will we just go to the schools or the students first or will we do equal

42
00:32:59.600 --> 00:34:07.600
administration in schools or instruction? million.73 million budget related to don't Where will we start?

43
00:34:07.600 --> 00:35:12.800
I mean I heard you say you know lunch for example transportation 3.2 So are we maximizing those subsion furthest away for example of their journey over the summer. We may not replace those positions. They may go away

44
00:35:12.800 --> 00:35:47.119
for the entire 2017. Right. So at any point July 1 of 2026, right? We're just going to pursue other um maximizing rates. If you look at our

45
00:35:47.119 --> 00:36:16.000
um projected budget book, you'll see a lot of zer in those columns because some of those a lot of those are right of fun. So that means anything

46
00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:40.000
about a lot of these come from that. That's another And then you know some non-essential maybe travel or anything

47
00:36:40.000 --> 00:37:37.640
that cost over a certain amount. There are a lot of automatic I'll just wait million to over three million. After we have seen a rise in our specialally,

48
00:37:51.119 --> 00:38:10.599
so we have a combination of a couple of class. one time for things that we could have back and then you know how do we requ

49
00:38:37.760 --> 00:39:40.800
Right. This right there. Thank you. Now go to number item number four. Audience participation. Excuse me. My voice is going audio. Because the board of education values public

50
00:39:40.800 --> 00:40:01.280
comments are as expressed by the public comment of the meeting. personal tax members or

51
00:40:01.280 --> 00:40:21.599
employees that disrupt the order of the meeting and are totally unrelated to the matters in which members are aware of character could be violated of legal

52
00:40:21.599 --> 00:42:30.520
liability. Most in three minutes of direct I'm here to talk about You want to go? But otherwise, But I was

53
00:42:52.640 --> 00:45:51.599
That's great. You're super Good afternoon. 181 The decision for One of the most respons The ability to dismiss our school Today's reaction

54
00:45:51.599 --> 00:47:07.240
meetings, social media, community not only Superintendent more than excellence accountability. Our whole Is it possible

55
00:47:09.920 --> 00:48:46.160
to make clearity. Um, I pray that you'll get better going together. Okay, thank you. Item number five. All

56
00:48:46.800 --> 00:50:16.599
right. Okay, call to order. The time is now 6:19 and we will begin the regular meeting um for the board of education of our parts. Number

57
00:50:23.040 --> 00:50:40.160
two, item number two, we will close the agenda. All right, the agenda is approved. Move to item number three, approval of consent agenda, minutes of the regular meeting held on June 8th. We will do

58
00:50:40.160 --> 00:51:35.599
that by no for doing so. Are there any? Okay. Item item number four, presentation board update by law. I didn't type that. That's right.

59
00:51:35.599 --> 00:54:53.720
Sure. Sure. So, last update came through update. Several particip. on the front page. It shows kind of basic in the following pages any policy

60
00:54:54.240 --> 00:55:22.920
are red for each out to make it easier as well. So starting on page two, you'll see two columns on the left current policies administrative reg.

61
00:55:27.599 --> 00:56:07.280
So the first one is in relation to 20003. As it explains, this is driven by changed a requirement that this will ensure survey questions and things that are

62
00:56:07.280 --> 00:57:08.319
given to students. So that modifically notify the survey. However, the district will comply with family. So that's the first recommended change. >> Um

63
00:57:08.319 --> 00:57:27.359
so the state better. But um so the state policies have to be adopted from the board. Correct. >> So >> or not the state because they're already

64
00:57:27.359 --> 00:57:55.280
a law but um what has to be adopted is what we have in place now. What has changed? >> So the state law requirement We're just lawific

65
00:57:55.280 --> 00:58:18.200
You must add because we want to make sure that it's known publicly. Um the second one policy

66
00:58:18.799 --> 00:58:48.040
extracurricular activities deal with athletics and Nong school money and what we're saying in the policy is one MHSA

67
00:58:48.720 --> 00:59:04.319
rules one follow MHSA policy. But what we're saying is we're not going to allow for personal branding

68
00:59:04.319 --> 00:59:21.119
activities that violate school policy or otherwise that could be dealt with conduct and that we don't want personal activities

69
00:59:21.119 --> 00:59:41.079
activities during school hours or students want to deal and their activities they shouldn't be doing that any

70
00:59:43.200 --> 01:00:06.079
>> so are you saying that they can't or they can just do it on 2006. This is an update to the modify the name of the policy.

71
01:00:06.079 --> 01:00:37.599
The state recently passed what was called electronic device. And so this just talks about how the school district reserves the right to prohibit possession or use of wireless communication devices on a school property

72
01:00:37.599 --> 01:01:24.319
function. It goes through some of these terms instruction. consistent with state law. And similarly on the next page on page four instruction.

73
01:01:33.839 --> 01:01:54.240
policy. >> I have a question there. I'm reading here. It says that student code of conduct um the student code of conduct at this moment um should be matching

74
01:01:54.240 --> 01:02:30.520
um what the board policy is. Okay. So um have you taken a look at the school code of conduct? Obviously again we're modifying the policy procedure and they're inconsistent modification.

75
01:02:32.640 --> 01:02:48.960
Um This is in relation to curriculum. Um again this is driven by modification state law which is state law currently

76
01:02:48.960 --> 01:03:25.760
requires that you evidence modific state doesn't use any of the state approved evidence based inform. We want to make sure

77
01:03:35.280 --> 01:03:52.960
Um the 4,000 series this is a new policy that we've added and recommended this is not one driven by state law. This is one that has come about

78
01:03:52.960 --> 01:04:10.079
a number of situations where we've had issues. Um and so we decided to craft this recommended policies and it is an anti-wing policy.

79
01:04:10.079 --> 01:04:50.880
What this does is that those second jobs inhibit their ability to serve. Um, and so scenario. I give one. Yeah, sure. teacher who had taken a leave of absence

80
01:04:50.880 --> 01:05:29.960
at one school district and go to that school district and this person was a tenure teacher. So he had toenure to try and so that's one example. Um other examples would be

81
01:05:44.960 --> 01:05:58.880
what it Um and that's the reason why again this is one that is not needed for compiance with law that's one that we have put

82
01:05:58.880 --> 01:06:27.599
into recommendation because 53 federal and um again this is more of just an effort to make sure that the language super

83
01:06:27.599 --> 01:06:56.280
legally compulations concerning expend receive your federal grant. But the reality is there is more to that process of making sure that internal control that should be used to

84
01:06:58.640 --> 01:07:37.440
second shall establish and maintain effective internal control over finanms. So in other words, not just your broad responsibility controls >> would be what would be internal?

85
01:07:37.440 --> 01:08:10.240
>> Internal would be making sure let's say for example grants can only certain activities classes personality. Um, so does that grant is it specific to

86
01:08:10.240 --> 01:08:37.480
a person or a company or or whatever that can be used for? Usually it's going to be depend It might be activities

87
01:08:52.640 --> 01:09:30.319
but only certain levels of security. And so part of that is having interns to these grants because most brands are so specific that your normal

88
01:09:30.319 --> 01:10:00.400
won't be enough to work with department to make sure that I saw the words will um when it comes to this regarding retention. So the state

89
01:10:00.400 --> 01:10:33.280
publishes a retention schedule business. We're going to follow that retention schedule. We're going to retain those records

90
01:10:33.280 --> 01:11:09.040
after that time can destroy those records unless unless or often times before a lawsuit happens attorney and so we litigation

91
01:11:09.040 --> 01:11:38.960
records related to employment individual And so even if we end this really change a little bit

92
01:11:38.960 --> 01:11:56.120
broader language which is the old langage that superintendent of regul circumstances under which the district would consider accepting commercial advertisements. We've modified that to say

93
01:11:58.400 --> 01:12:22.960
but not limited to commercial. People may want to advertise things that aren't necessarily commercial for office. So it just broadens that scope more than just advertising.

94
01:12:23.520 --> 01:12:47.440
And then the final one is 8003 related to web accessibility. This deals with some new federal guidelines of hearing

95
01:12:47.440 --> 01:13:15.360
disability and their ability to follow And it's just modifying language to say that we're going to the latest. Those are the policy updates that are

96
01:13:15.360 --> 01:14:13.920
being recommended. I have one more. Um, are there any more obsid for that? >> You wouldn't know that if you haven't seen or know what hasn't been updated. We work with the company that maintains

97
01:14:13.920 --> 01:14:44.760
for the policy. So once updates have been passed back to not so we can go back and say okay and we can go back

98
01:14:47.280 --> 01:15:54.400
my part to just go by the Yeah. >> Five reports. Um tonight. Our graduating seniors last meeting this past couple high school and academy our students are

99
01:15:54.400 --> 01:16:09.280
preparing for a while. college train worker exploration and this is an important reminder that student success does not look the same but it is our responsibility to ensure

100
01:16:09.280 --> 01:16:34.480
that every plan students were accepted into several colleges including central Michigan University state university valley and several out of state institutions most notably Austin

101
01:16:34.480 --> 01:17:01.760
he was accepted onade of California football scholarship Quinton champion winning team. Both of them were accepted to Morgan State University.

102
01:17:01.760 --> 01:17:33.920
Um at Nova Academy,000 documented financial aid awards. 17 students are entering college or trade school with three students. Community College for all of our students. Um and what's especially encouraging is the right career that our children have our

103
01:17:33.920 --> 01:18:03.880
graduates are such business automotive technology artic truck driving. Okay. Five Nova seniors also completed the growth talent program.

104
01:18:05.040 --> 01:18:22.600
So as we cate to celebrate the class of 2026, we also recognize we have work to do but overall graduating class resilience amition and diverse goals whether our students are university college or work

105
01:18:24.480 --> 01:19:05.520
prepared to continue building the 203 does the old public not just in public. We welcome all comments. We welcome public comments

106
01:19:05.520 --> 01:19:31.280
on speakers are expressed by public not employees that disrupt the order of the meeting and I'm not totally unrelated to matters in which members and employment

107
01:19:31.280 --> 01:19:51.239
perform his or are statement violates the rights of character rights under committed and resultal. Most

108
01:19:53.600 --> 01:20:46.719
focus and notucation. Honestly, I wasn't planning I My phone teachers who are worried social workers really bothered us that the mismanagement of the money has come

109
01:20:46.719 --> 01:21:39.080
may end up. I hope Item number item um 7 A approval of board policy update for policy 20 2003 2004 2003 20 3003 4003 500 718

110
01:21:47.199 --> 01:22:25.440
I would educate it by myself. Any discussion on the lighting. Um well, first I want to um say that um thank you uh but thank for coming and u getting some of these

111
01:22:25.440 --> 01:22:45.679
policies started uh to be in place um legally and ethically. Also um I wanted to say seeing that there are moreh policies to be uh amended or

112
01:22:45.679 --> 01:23:01.600
adopted. I would like to know that if we could u please get a committee together because uh the board could also have our own language. Uh if you heard him, you said that they would have to go in line and also he made some adjustments to

113
01:23:01.600 --> 01:23:16.800
what um what our language was already already saying but you know changing it. But I believe that the board uh should collaboratively collaboratively get together and uh agree uh on what our

114
01:23:16.800 --> 01:23:33.920
policies should say and not allow um uh others to just put our policies into place. Um because it is the board's duty and we don't want to give our duty to someone else when it's our duty. That's just like you know we're going to do

115
01:23:33.920 --> 01:23:50.960
whatever. Uh also um the in regards to the uh the anti-moon lighting. Um I have never heard of that. Uh he gave a one example. I don't know what school district that was. I had never heard anything like that. I would not um

116
01:23:50.960 --> 01:24:07.840
I don't agree uh to that because I agree to it, but I've never heard of it. I I mean I know I've heard of moonlighting with police officers, you know, where they can't go

117
01:24:07.840 --> 01:24:24.000
But he gave an example that I I I was confused. I thought that's what that was about, but basically me saying for another teacher to go into another district, but I think uh legally that would probably it was uh you know like it wasn't illegal, it was illegal

118
01:24:24.000 --> 01:24:39.600
because the person got charged. So with it already being uh like mandated uh for any type of um I I was just saying

119
01:24:39.600 --> 01:25:03.280
I never heard of this term a little but really what the policy is saying is you can't work here at the same time that's all that the policy is addressing

120
01:25:03.280 --> 01:25:19.840
and generally we several situations here in the district. If you wanted more information, we had several now they were handled right administrative oversight right now. They were handled but we have in

121
01:25:19.840 --> 01:25:40.080
recent years had people working another job or during their contract. So that's all that's addressed in order to u appropriately handle that everything is governed first by policy state

122
01:25:40.080 --> 01:26:23.760
policy employever. for the same time. So you brought up a great point which may I policy it no it's not it's not a state policy what Miller Johnson is saying to protect

123
01:26:23.760 --> 01:26:47.560
because they are prepared all of our polic That's one that they suggested because they had to go to court, right? So they would know when things instru

124
01:27:06.080 --> 01:27:28.600
But in recent years a couple of situations it just made it to your level just claiming to be. >> So with that um Oh, so it just says different employees

125
01:27:31.520 --> 01:28:01.040
work. No, you can't have another job that you can pay 12 on >> I mean I mean honestly because if you can leave to go work you can leave to go

126
01:28:01.040 --> 01:28:27.040
you can't be on a from the district or that are protected under SMLA and work another job. So what it's doing is protecting the district or some other

127
01:28:27.040 --> 01:28:44.800
or not situation or not. work and working. >> So would employees be considered through the district or contract? They're employees too. So direct

128
01:28:44.800 --> 01:29:31.199
employees so district employees employing somewhere else I have no employee policy policy. So this is why I want to say we need the committee because there are other things that I want to say that directly talks

129
01:29:31.199 --> 01:29:46.400
about this because it doesn't talk about a contract worker. It should be everybody can't dictate the work of another We service

130
01:29:46.400 --> 01:30:19.040
people there. So we hold the contract right there or whoever it goes to the person. >> But there are there are contracts that

131
01:30:19.040 --> 01:30:50.159
we have that are individual. They're not They don't have they are the >> way service independent contract and they violate something over you can make

132
01:30:50.159 --> 01:31:18.880
whatever that services. But um you you said that this will help facilitate the language. We have language black and white. But

133
01:31:18.880 --> 01:31:39.040
under moonlighting should be other things added into here to be testified of of the district employees. It doesn't specify other things. You understand? So if a person is reading it, they're not going to say,

134
01:31:39.040 --> 01:31:59.560
"Oh, this is talking about contracting employees." I think it could be a little bit more spelled out. I mean, that's just what No, it comes from the board. That's why I was saying we need to have a committee to talk about this.

135
01:32:04.080 --> 01:32:45.600
>> Correct. But >> so if a person has a contract, you're saying that they are they are harder for the district. employees. Can you answer that question for us, please? >> Right.

136
01:32:45.600 --> 01:33:23.920
You get whateverbody is receiving you know if it was me at or wherever if I read that I wanted to detail employctor for

137
01:33:23.920 --> 01:33:41.520
you know I mean it's legal it's legal binding I mean excuse me please do not beat me up I promise I'm just it's legal so if you're going to legally say something you specify what is or whatever a school

138
01:33:41.520 --> 01:34:12.960
district I get it whatever you apply, get the job, you work for the district. I get that, but I'm just saying, you know, >> no, we don't want to specific contract, what is it? So, anybody

139
01:34:12.960 --> 01:34:49.400
district which is our educator anybody else in a bargain with other groups but they are contract contract. Your employer is somebody.

140
01:35:07.120 --> 01:35:23.440
So I totally understand because we have hourly bargaining unit and we have salary bargaining in the places of union right so while I was just saying

141
01:35:23.440 --> 01:35:38.400
if it was I because I only speak for me that if I'm as I am a mother auntie and a great in this district a student and I'm reading I'm going to say where are the

142
01:35:38.400 --> 01:35:56.560
specifics? That's all. And to the board members and the president that said school district employees, that to me is just vague because we have different we have as you said non we have bargaining this

143
01:35:56.560 --> 01:36:15.440
to specify the difference of who we're talking apologizing but I I have a job and I work too and I have to read my contract and if I read the contract and it doesn't make sense I got to say

144
01:36:15.440 --> 01:36:38.040
something like hey you got a whole contract this right if I get in trouble I'm going to the contract not right now but I would make it up I mean I looked at it but I didn't want to overstection

145
01:37:00.000 --> 01:37:18.800
item. I would I I mean I don't know if you all want to take a little time to get the language together because this is our language. Uh if you wanted to just you know take two minutes or something later and just or I write it out and just give it to

146
01:37:18.800 --> 01:37:53.679
you or >> so we can we can actually move this if I if I will. We could just move this table this one so I can just drop the language to get to the board. >> No, no, no. Uh I mean it

147
01:37:53.679 --> 01:38:09.840
just needs to specify, you know, just it couldn't take that long, but yeah, we can just You want to just move it down? >> Yes. Okay. All right. So, we're going to move down action item number A, approval of board policy updates

148
01:38:09.840 --> 01:38:32.560
to Okay. Um, item number 7B, organizational membership association of school board, MF resolve that the board of education approve renewal of its membership with the Michigan assoc.

149
01:38:32.560 --> 01:39:18.960
of full board MP for the period of July July 1, 2012 June 30th 2027 and authorized by Tyler. Yes. All right.

150
01:39:18.960 --> 01:39:37.040
Now move to item number 17 approval of the contract with regarded security services for security privacy. All right. The old board of education approve and accept the contract with the guard security to provide districtwide

151
01:39:37.040 --> 01:40:05.280
security services for the period of July 1st through June 30th 2029 at a total estimated cost of44 and authorized byustee. by any discussion on this motion.

152
01:40:05.280 --> 01:40:27.760
>> I just had one question. Um I noticed with the tax it's a rate agreement. Um do we know when we're going to get like the contract to look at like what what their duties or do we just go off with the big old

153
01:40:27.760 --> 01:41:06.800
we have something where they sign They agree to >> right now. We don't sign anything. We didn't No, I didn't. >> Okay. So, I in the past or with any

154
01:41:06.800 --> 01:41:21.280
employee of the district, >> they have a contract. So, again, I was just wondering and they got a contract. If they don't have a contract, I don't know how we going to vote. So, they got no contract. Like, for instance, are you a boss? Because I know you have a title

155
01:41:21.280 --> 01:41:38.800
as the director or excuse me, money. Okay. So, the executive or the exe of security collaborate with them

156
01:41:38.800 --> 01:42:24.800
but because I don't have a contract in front of me to know what their real work is Not changing. Yeah. So I uh yeah because I noticed that they are full of employees according to the gentleman that came and

157
01:42:24.800 --> 01:42:43.520
he said that they had so many employees but that's what like in the contract you know like they say you know where your money is. So if he came there he gave us all of this what he's going to do will do the board not without a contract.

158
01:42:43.520 --> 01:43:20.400
This is just a money thing that we're This is not a contract. >> So, are we coming back to it? I must be on the day, but there's been many times where contracts have been already been hired and then they're waiting for the board to just approve in

159
01:43:20.400 --> 01:43:36.480
some cases after. And please again apologize because I'm a little tired of the going backward instead of going forward. It's like here go check, you know, go ahead and take it. But however, I was just wondering would you just uh

160
01:43:36.480 --> 01:44:24.239
help me to say that there's going to contract you know negotiation at this point? It was that little Right. >> And that's satisf I understand because that is actually

161
01:44:24.239 --> 01:44:40.239
very important that we would have been my question, you know, are you coming in, you know, because these employees know the district. They're about the district. They lead the district. They cultally know the district.

162
01:44:40.239 --> 01:45:10.119
That one right there has been here a very long time and I would hate to see what we already have in place to be, you know, And how long is their contract for >> three years? How long was the embarrass?

163
01:45:18.000 --> 01:45:51.840
>> Okay. Thank you. All right. First of all, I want to say I'm excited. Okay. So I heard you say that working in the fall so that um in the future if someone get fired and um

164
01:45:51.840 --> 01:47:03.280
um decides to not they couldn't come over. Am I correct? working. When you say okay now that's being changed in the language Thank you. >> Oh, that sounds so wonderful. Thank you.

165
01:47:03.280 --> 01:47:24.880
Because that has been my heart's desire. U one of my main hearts desire when I went to run is that security will come back into our school district. Um because when I was here, um my first day on the I was an employ someone invested and from the district

166
01:47:24.880 --> 01:47:42.520
is able to choose them rather than letting someone else choose them for us. So um let me definitely make sure that contract um you know in that language that language out. Thank you.

167
01:47:54.159 --> 01:48:22.320
>> They can always work for very clear. I know how you very clear. Just make sure that we're able to able to hire them within our district. Roll call.

168
01:48:22.320 --> 01:49:21.560
>> Roll call. >> I'm sorry. Did you call my name? Oh, yeah. All right, we will now move to item number seven resolution. about any discussion on the road.

169
01:49:31.679 --> 01:49:57.760
Item number 17, adoption. proposed budget. Item number seven, approval of the 2025 2026 final budget. Resolve that the board of education hereby approve the recommended final

170
01:49:57.760 --> 01:50:42.239
budget amendment for fiscal year as presented and recommended by further resolved authoriz implement. Okay. Item number seven,

171
01:50:42.239 --> 01:51:47.440
adop7 proposed budget. funds. Further resent authorized implement. First is very important. This here is the type of the top of the

172
01:51:47.440 --> 01:52:03.639
iceberg for us. And the reason is because we have a lot of blanks in this budget. Meaning we're talking about cuts.

173
01:52:03.760 --> 01:52:23.639
we really don't have a plan uh in regards to who's going to be cut, when they're going to be cut. I also feel that we was kind of blindsided because this information was presented when the board was posted. Um

174
01:52:25.599 --> 01:52:40.480
I'm not clear. I don't know if the board members are clear in regards to what you heard today. Uh about approving a budget that we're getting cut, but yet line item Z, we're going to

175
01:52:40.480 --> 01:52:58.280
be approving contracts. I don't know if you all added them up or you even viewed them, but there are some contracts where some are going to be having a two-year contract. There are I wasn't done, but okay.

176
01:52:59.360 --> 01:53:16.080
Point of communication Uh so there is a contract where it states a grade in the first school year

177
01:53:16.080 --> 01:53:40.440
of 2027 and then it states in the second school year there is an additional raise of 2%. And it also states that there are disciples. So if that is not to what would that be

178
01:53:41.440 --> 01:54:18.199
as part of the office of retirement services we have included So we had to create a salary schedule. They were all over the place, right? people don't have a salary,000.

179
01:54:22.159 --> 01:54:58.239
So retirement services have a schedule princip because they look for July 30th as a quote written two established by statute or approved by reporting

180
01:54:58.239 --> 01:55:43.040
that indicates of the comps to rule. It applies to classification. more about the same like you're referring to item number

181
01:55:43.040 --> 01:56:16.639
I mean item 17 I am talking about the contract the No I'm talking about the budget to do with the contract Are you I mean I'm asking because so our budget has line items and on

182
01:56:16.639 --> 01:56:33.199
those line items they have the the salaries. So, if this budget is approved when we were talking about cuts, I brought up that there are contracts

183
01:56:33.199 --> 01:56:57.199
that are due to be approved tonight. >> I'm sorry. So, therefore, I'm gonna I'm gonna just read this. Whenever there are a touch environment,

184
01:56:57.199 --> 01:57:11.360
it was just and I I swear I'm not going to burn nobody, but what I heard is that this is what we going to do. And if we go do this, we're going to start here and we're going to take this and we're

185
01:57:11.360 --> 01:57:32.400
going to take that. But in the meantime, we're going to approve contract. We have a projected budget. We don't have an actual. We're probably not going to get actual until later. But in what the discussion was, it wasn't that we're in the good. It was literally

186
01:57:32.400 --> 01:57:50.080
saying. So as a board, we're responsible for what comes about. So if you're not listening to what was just said, we can legally point. We can legally

187
01:57:50.080 --> 01:58:07.119
be subjected to the downfall. It comes back to this table. That's all I'm saying. I'm not taking it personal. I'm not pointing fingers. But if it was me and you coming

188
01:58:07.119 --> 01:58:24.159
to me saying that I'm about to be laid laid off or we don't have no money, we can't do anything. Uh this happened didn't give out Z. So I think

189
01:58:24.159 --> 01:58:41.360
and I can feel the pockets for people. So I'm saying that we are just talking about we don't have a plan. We just talking about But in the meantime, whether it's just a year, two years retirement, uh, uh,

190
01:58:41.360 --> 01:58:58.400
whether it's amendment, I mean, annuities, whether it's siphons, whether it's whatever right now, we have to watch our money. And again, producers, we are being watched. So, if you go ahead and you want to approve a budget

191
01:58:58.400 --> 01:59:13.599
where we're being told that you're going to do cuts and then we're going to, I don't know, maybe or maybe approves the contracts, but the contracts are not where they're they're raises. They're 1% raises in some places 2%.

192
01:59:13.599 --> 01:59:29.800
But that's what I was getting. I'm not saying that we're going to approve we're not I'm not saying we're going to approve anything or I'm not even disagreeing with you. I'm saying that what you're talking about

193
01:59:30.800 --> 01:59:46.080
I I heard what you're saying, but that's not what I'm Everything underneath the budget has a lot to do with the budget. So all I'm saying is that if we approve this budget based on what's underneath,

194
01:59:46.080 --> 02:00:03.760
do your homework, you'll see that we get into trouble with I would ask that we freeze the contract one based on the fact that let me let me stop right here. Based on the proposed

195
02:00:03.760 --> 02:00:25.520
budget, we don't have the money for this. Any more discussion on this motion? I have a question. Um, so have to be

196
02:00:25.520 --> 02:01:36.400
a decision for this. Okay. Because of the tight turn, are we accurate? all of the things that come back toward people. So my point is you can approve what's

197
02:01:40.159 --> 02:02:05.760
But what it does across all levels do right by the district. So what we can do is say there's a automatic roll or

198
02:02:05.760 --> 02:02:34.679
increase, right? And they come back. Um the projected budget for the entire district. So I would recommend to approve the budget.

199
02:02:36.000 --> 02:03:44.520
to continue everything right and come back with a detailed the way we are currently. >> My next question is do we have a way that anybody could have a I have a couple questions

200
02:03:57.360 --> 02:05:23.960
for the board. Some of these things travel willing to consider. Is the boarding consider Are there programs, services or positions that the world reduction

201
02:05:27.119 --> 02:06:47.280
reduction. We will work very responsible, right? So we will do the best that we put a little bit more red But the detail we have motion to

202
02:06:54.560 --> 02:08:00.040
Is that a part of course as far like you said earlier when you said that. >> Yes. But I mean So we would simply go

203
02:08:07.679 --> 02:08:43.520
and I will come back right. million. That's not >> All right. So, item number 17, I'm sorry, point of order information. So,

204
02:08:43.520 --> 02:09:57.199
we're tableing it to the 29th so the most accurate picture. If you have once you get an opportunity to review more director That's actually it

205
02:09:57.199 --> 02:10:34.719
currently right. So, we're talking I know I didn't promise you class people from all over the

206
02:10:34.719 --> 02:11:10.920
over heavy in this building. Is it the reason why we haven't or it's equaliz The All the yellow

207
02:11:41.440 --> 02:13:02.920
This is unfortunate. Right. No other So the plan again. So, so that's going to be in the plan.

208
02:13:07.920 --> 02:13:24.079
>> Okay. All right. >> Okay. So, again, item number seven, adoption of the 2026 2027 proposed budget has been table. All right. So, seven item number 17.

209
02:13:24.079 --> 02:14:22.079
I would like to move to postpon. All right. >> So, would that be a freeze? >> No. August. >> No. When I come back on the 29th, June 29th, I will impact the board around

210
02:14:22.079 --> 02:15:08.719
those things. That can happen before. >> Okay. 29th I think that's holding off I think holding off on everything until the 29th so people come and say okay I can hear

211
02:15:08.719 --> 02:15:47.040
it. We should be able to midnight oil. Okay. So, um item number seven is going to be table until item number 17 is going to be until June

212
02:15:47.040 --> 02:16:45.439
29 202 by myself. Whenever there's a motion, there's a discussion. That's all I'm just call >> I can't let this go by again. Why? I I have apologize. I have said I'm

213
02:16:45.439 --> 02:17:07.519
sorry. We just had governance and goals of the board and I'm sorry I got to be the first one but I feel some kind of way right. I feel that I'm being disrespected again. All I'm doing is

214
02:17:07.519 --> 02:17:26.399
asking questions. Don't beat me up. I've apologized. I have said I'm just even ask a question. Don't do that to me. It is disturbing and it really irritates me

215
02:17:26.399 --> 02:17:49.200
as a as a leader of this board. There shouldn't be a letting you know my feelings. If you don't respect that, then that's too bad. My feel is when I'm talking that's disturbing and that's bad

216
02:17:49.200 --> 02:18:21.679
behavior and I'm I'm talking trusty corporly. I humbly ask you. I am no one's child. I am not a disrespectful person and I

217
02:18:21.679 --> 02:18:37.760
asked for it to be in return. Thank you. As me was taking a role. You were talking the entire time and that's why I dropped my pen because I don't know if you heard her or not, but I wanted to regain order in this room.

218
02:18:37.760 --> 02:18:55.479
>> You have a devil and I used No, you did not. You dropped your P. You just >> I right before I community. >> Thank you. All right, we're going to move to item number eight, information items a proposed district rating policy.

219
