Is there any questions about the student student surveys? Okay, let's we can move on. Let's look at the teacher surveys. The teacher survey is is essentially um pretty straightforward u similar to to what the students are getting. But um how often do you use it? um uh do you do you include breaks and what have you what maybe behavioral changes have you seen in in your kids um when they're on the Chromebook a long time? Can I ask a question on that? Um because for middle school and high school just their day is different. So middle school has regular regular periods and then the high school has block periods. So and and I don't have an answer to this. I'm just wondering um about how much [Music] time do you spend do your students spend using Chromebooks while in class each day? Less than 30 minutes.

The only thing that I was thinking about is I'm not sure how much it's going to cost them to get it, you know, ready and then for to be risking us saying, "No, we're not going to give it to them." Would it would it be possible instead of and you know, it's up to them, but if they wanted to take that leap and then risk, right, or would it be acceptable if they were able to show us a design um that we agreed upon? What? I'm not sure what anybody thinks about that. I'm just trying to So, on the on the plans that they gave us, there shows where they're going to put it. And if you look at if you go to Google Maps and do 98A I mean that's the nice thing about having the computer in front of me is if you look at Nickerson Road you can sort of see that along the property line on Nickerson Road is where my understanding is the one through 10 will be and then 11 and 12 will be on that side road so that they'll be pointing towards Nickerson Road here.

Or at least having those responses broken out by department, by grade band level, so we can see Yeah, absolutely. I should have said said that at the beginning. Everything will be um able to be broken out by um by grade level, by you know, school level, etc., etc. So, we'll know if a response came from a high school versus a middle school. Yeah, absolutely. And what high school. Okay. Thank you. and any de demographics we want to see on the kids. So a um an issue I thought with that same question was that you know you're teaching your kids and so even at the high school level you wouldn't have more than two hours right that would be an impossible answer for me as a teacher.

There's no way my student and my student would use it. So, what I think you were trying to get at is well, I'm not sure what you were trying to get at. Um, I guess in total a high school student could certainly use, you know, you could be using it 60 minutes in each class or 88 minutes in each class and that would certainly be more than two hours. But if you're surveying me as a teacher, I know how much my kids are using in my class. And that's all I all I know. And so the most that a high school teacher would have would be 88 minutes. And and that would be from bell to bell. So that's probably not um likely either. Correct. And then at the middle school level, I to Gail's point, they don't have as long of classes. So I I I think that question could use some um refiguring.

Specifying different time period breakdowns for um right. I mean just more than two hours each day would be an impossible answer. Tim, Tim, can I ask can I just clarify? So when the information comes back for the teacher survey, you're going to have let's say of 700 teachers, 600 of them respond. That'd be fantastic. And when those results come back, you'll be able to disagregate them by elementary, middle school, and high school. And so when the elementary school teachers input comes in, you'll be able to disagregate of those elementary teachers. Correct. Did they use it for more than two hours? Correct. Because there is a propensity for elementary to use it for more than two hours per day. That's that's how I read that that you'll be able you will be able to disagregate it.

Um, you're going to have to make some access way for the for the fire vehicles to be able to get to that to that location should there be, god forbid, ever an incident where fire apparatus has to get to the back of your, you know, to the back of your building. And as of right now, the fire chief says there isn't proper access for that. Yeah. Actually took pictures. The concern is is that are those his cars or are those to the other business? Mr. Garcia just said that behind that building those are your vehicles. Correct. Right. Okay. Okay. So, there should there be a limit limited number of vehicles back there? I mean, how do you handle that? How I didn't again I didn't go on your property. So, how many vehicles can you guesstimate are out back there right now? I would say around um 10 around 10.

Thank you, John. As well. Yeah. Any further questions on the parent or the teacher survey? Sorry. All right. So, parents and guardians. Um very similar with one um open response at the end. One thing I have a clarifying question on that on the the same one. So, do parents have the ability um to look at their child's Chromebook usage during the day to have a better actual idea on this for the, you know, less than 30 minutes. Do do they do they have an ability to look at that and and kind of figure figure out where where their child is? They do. So they uh they have access to security, which is a portal that it's our filter. And so they have that on their phone. They can the security sends out an email to all our teachers or our our parents. They can put that on their phone and then they can manage the devices and see the websites that they've gone to as well.

Yeah. Okay. Do you plan on uh storing any more vehicles there other than just 10? Uh not for right now. But either way, like you know, I told you um that we got the other space right next to it. I don't know if you saw it. This a lot. We got we leased that one, too. So, we're going to put in cars there. Again, because of what you provided us, I can't make that determination as to where that is and and the other property owner. Okay. So, so it sounds like based on what we got what we received from our fire chief, there is concern about the part on the um on the other side. So, as if you're looking at the property map, you have 92A and then 92B, right? And if Nickerson Road is here, we have a plan for this part, but there's no plan for that back parcel around the 92B building.

So they can use that set schedules to turn it off at certain times of the of the evening or to hit a pause button and turn it off and also to see um what sites have been on there. It doesn't have the time, so it's not going to tell them exactly how many hours they're on there, but it will list the websites that they've gone to. So, you're saying they don't they're not able to see how many hours in during school they were using it, just the sites that were visited, but you don't know how how long they were at a particular site. That is correct. So that that software does not miss the timestamps with the the websites. One thing I'll add about the the securely question is um that's something that um you know it's a wonderful tool for parents. We just have to make sure that it's known to parents and not only known that it exists uh how to use it.

John, just a clarification. So that what you were describing is student use at home, correct? So the sites that they visited and and looking at the time stamp. So that's both at home and at school. So parents have the access to that as well, but it could be turned off if a parent could go in and say after 220 they can't access it. That is correct. Yes. So they can turn off they can go in and change block categories um or they can turn off the Chromebook completely when they get out. No access at all. Correct. Yes. And I'll I'll add John and I have have talked about um the possibility of pulling usage data um perhaps from Google perhaps from securely um go guardian even.

And then is there anyone who would like to make a motion um regarding the striping and the other part of the lot? I would just suggest uh to Mr. Garcia that uh upon the issuance of this of this class 2 license that we uh that you have the ability to stripe the uh the parking area where those vehicles are going to be shown um for sale and um and on the the other piece of property that you have if you can at least make a boundary line or show where that property is because again like I said I I couldn't make that determination. Okay. All right. So, it will help us in the in the long run because again um it's a stickler for me. So, I usually go check and I'm pretty good that way. And um until maybe May, but uh at I would suggest that um if you get that lined out so that we know where that property line is, we can you won't be charged another, you know, seven seven or eight cars that are parked there that aren't yours.

Hey, Tim and John, real quickly, if I am a parent that has a junior high student and an elementary school student, can I take the survey for each of my students? Yes. Yes, parents will be able to take a survey for each one of their students. Um and yeah, they but one one time each for each of their students. I understand the difficulty of uh gathering a lot of qualitative data um on some of the um items of the parent survey especially maybe like items eight and nine I might feel more comfortable if there was an an other option where they could actually give a short answer. I think those are uh those are the questions about uh your current knowledge of online safety and do you believe that Chromebooks support your child's emotional and social well-being?

Yeah, I see that. Thank you. I just want to piggyback on what President Lando said.
