Any questions or comments before we go to vote? The the only thing I would ask is if we could maybe once or twice a year get uh some summary data of exit surveys if you have those so that we understand why people leave. I know um I think it was about two weeks ago I met an auto advisory class with uh Mr. Guthrie who all the kids seem to love. Uh but I saw it I saw that uh he was resigning and I was very disappointed. Um I even saw some stuff on Columbus man. So I I I really am curious as to why we have um obviously people leave for different reasons, right? But um just want to understand why some of the people leave if if it's uh I mean could could be many reasons just how we can impact it so that we can keep more teachers.
Okay, we have a motion and a second for item 10 AM and B. Um Mr. Schultz is abstaining. Mr. Glick. I. Mr. Non. I. Mr. Stener. Hi. Mr. Major. Yes, Miss Lloyd. I Miss Wen is also yes. Motion carries 6. Okay. Board input and review. Mr. Schultz, you've been very patient. It's hard to be remote. I would like you to start, please, if you're ready. I won't waste I won't take your time. You're okay. I appreciate all of you being uh courteous to my ability to hear in. I think we'll go to Mr. Glick. You finished. Uh, I'd like to start out by saying thank you to uh, Mrs. Day and Mrs. Winnicki for their tour of Schmidt and that project over there. Really impressed with what's going on over there. And, uh, hopefully by the end of next year, we can get back to business over there and move on.
Uh, next of all, like to congrats to all the seniors who finished their senior project last week. as uh always a big load off of your mind and kind of you're in cruise mode for the last month. Uh I was perusing Facebook the other day and I also saw that East Wrestling team had nine NA NACA academic all-Americans which is kind of a big deal and you get to compete across the nation and get to be a academic all-American. It's kind of cool. So, uh, congrats and good luck to Smith and Central sideborgs. Uh, I got a one-on-one with them last week and it was pretty impressive to see what they could do. And on top of that, you third graders sitting there just chomping at the bit to brief you on what they do and not not holding back. You're just super excited to see what they can do.
Next, Parkside Odyssey of the Mind is going to nationals. I believe that's in Iowa in next couple weeks. And then congrats to CSA New Tech for their boiler tech challenge. They won it all to include five trophies and uh all the different weather related uh disaster relief that they planned for. Um and the one thing go back to the cyborg. Sorry notes are out of order. the the teammates all discussed their engineering notebooks and talking with Mrs. things those rival uh dissertation papers. They get very elaborate. Some of them upwards of over 200 pages, which is kind of crazy when you think that these are third through sixth graders and some of them seventh and eighth graders as well. Um I think Smith's was roughly 90 pages is what they they said, which is still really impressive. Um and that would be it. Sorry, long list today.
Mr. Nell. Um, so I was gonna also mention congratulations to CS CSA New Techch on the Purdue um, Boiler Tech Challenge. Um, and also, um, commendations to Columbus North math team. They finished second in the state in Indiana Math League. It's a, um, series of six different contests, one one a month or one round each month. And over the course of the six contests, over 200 students participated and um the state lists the the top I think it was the top 45 students and 14 of them were Columbus North students. So it's strong showing by a good number of students. Um, also just this is just a great meeting to celebrate all the things that our students are doing at many levels, but also what our staff does to to help support teachers and students. And finally, thank you, Mr. Edwards, for the Mr. Edwards show tonight.
Um, but it was great information and we appreciate it. Um, I'd just like to give a shout out to BCSSE staff and just in the community in general. We were hit pretty hard with tornadoes and then turned around and had flooding just a short couple weeks afterwards. I was personally hit with tornadoes. I appreciate Mr. Glick actually came to check on me. Thank you very much for that. Um, but I think we did a really nice job in our emergency preparedness, our communication, the services we offer to students um, with food etc. our resources during a very difficult time in the community. So, I just think the team really got it right and and that was well done. Um I also um missed the um school visit today because my daughter took priority and there was a key club banquet at East and so I'm going to do a little recognition of those students who have just um given so many hours to their community.
It was very was very cool to see. But outgoing officers I'll list by name. Carson Schloozer, Alex Wensler, who was also on the top 10 and had to leave that to go to a volleyball game. Um Ren Fish, Ian Scho, and Ally Sharp. They've made a big impact. Um they'll do off to go off to do great things. Mr. Stener, thank you. Uh I am personally heartbroken that future educator signing day is next week and I will miss it. Um so I look forward to talking to the fellow board members who are able to attend. uh really sounds like an exciting event. Um wanted to thank everybody that was part of the presentations tonight, all the research that goes into it. Uh it is much appreciated. And then last but certainly not least, I want to call out uh we're right across the parking lot from North Side Middle School.
Call out eighth grader Grace Load. She uh is part of the Taekwond do cadet US national team for Olympic sparring. She's the only female in the state of Indiana to participate in that team and is one of 10 females in the entire country as an eighth grader. Uh she's already competed internationally in Canada as an eighth grader. It's unimaginable. uh gold medal at the AAU state championships in Michigan earlier this year and she has recently returned from the Pan-American Games in Mexico where she placed third. So congratulations to all the students. It's good to be involved in something outside the classrooms. It improves academic learning. Must be time to go because they're turning out the light. So, um, I've got a good relationship with Mrs. Haynes and one of the coaches for the team you saw tonight doing the robotics work. And I just wanted to put another push here.
Um, they're asking for any donations that you could all give uh to help with their trip to Dallas. So, a lot of that is funded by the students themselves. And so, uh, anything that you can do to help there, um, they would take a check for, uh, VEX robotic trip and that is in the memo. Students in there as well. And so, as much as I want to thank Mr. Clark and Mrs. Noling for providing us some time here tonight at East or at North, sorry. I really wish we could have had this meeting at East and uh maybe caught those kids before or after their volleyball game tonight. Um that way, you know, we we could have told them congratulations as well. That was the only reason that that game was the only reason why they weren't able to make it tonight. and and I know most of the meetings we have over here, but uh I've I've mentioned this before that it'd be really nice to have kind of a traveling road show that goes to some of the other schools.
So, would have been nice to do this at ease, let those kids kind of have an opportunity to to bask in the the claps and the applause and all that that uh they've worked so hard to earn. So, um hopefully we can uh take advantage of that and do a better job of inclusion in the future. Thank you. Well, so many things have already been mentioned, but uh I did want to give a shout out to our skaters uh our student skaters who participated in the ice show this weekend. It was fabulous. Um I'm always so impressed uh with their performances. I also want to just say congratulations to our senior project students last week. They did a great job presenting their hard work at both East and North. Um and most importantly, just well wishes for a really safe and wonderful prom this weekend.
Okay. All right. Men, if I could just add a couple of items on there. Um yes, probably the smartest boys volleyball team in the state of Indiana. I would assume that East is out there just outperforming them in that way. Um, specific to being in this building, I want to thank um, our operations team. Does anybody at the table notice what we didn't have tonight? Cookies. We didn't have cookies. We get those next month. But so the sun so the operations team, if you go out there, you're going to see that there's some uh something up there that they put up block. Yes. so that we all didn't sit here with a bright sh sun sun shining in our face that so thank you to the operations team and Nick and Asher and Josh and Sherry and Karen who when we do have somewhat of a traveling road show and we come over here to North for these three meetings really do a lot to get this place set up and then the north personnel who stay here until the end of the evening get all this torn back down and ready for kids to eat lunch in here tomorrow.
I just have to add I came prepared. You brought my sunglasses. That's true. So, I want to thank them all and add that on this screen right here, we are just missing two items that I neglected to put on there. The board work session, which is a public session on May the 17th. Uh we'll start at 8:30 and go till we have a agenda from 8:30 to 3 o'clock in the afternoon. So, um, long day there, strategic planning and working together on, um, on where we want to go next year. And then also on May the 20th, and this was on a prior slide from Dr. Boseman, but May the 20th out at the Westside Community Church, the architects will be there and reveal the design of the 12th elementary. It'll be really exciting. Again, 5:00 pm, right, Dr. Boseman? out at the Westside Community Church the day after this board meeting on the 19th.
Thank you, Mrs. Wheeler. Okay. Uh May 19th at 6 pm we will be in here for uh BCSSE retiree celebration uh followed by a regular board meeting uh at 6:30 p.m. And then as we discussed tonight and voted we will hold a board working session regarding the the handbooks and just um look out for that to be scheduled. We have some tenative dates but that would be posted per per guidelines. Cookies provided on the 19th. Cookies provided on the 19th. Thank you, Dr. Phillips. Okay. Uh with that, I'll say meeting adjourned. Thank you all.
think that the recording really has helped with that because I know every time I go back to school it's like what happened to me confer like what are you guys talking about and I'm like well guess what you can have watched all of the streaming here tune in to this time this is what we talked about um and so I just think it's been very beneficial and it it helps me be u mindful of my words because I can be a swear um and I think it just uh that transparency is really beneficial and I also really appreciate hearing all of those um different perspectives from all of the different groups because sometimes there's issues in different departments or in different um things that I might, you know, I might not know about because I don't work in transportation or thing, you know, different areas.

If you could open your folders. Um Maria really worked hard to run off quite a few handouts for us today. Um but in there you can see the agenda. It's again a full agenda. And not sure if it's on your copy, but last night as I was preparing, um, well, actually, it's not one night that I prepare. It's a lot of preparation, but as I was going over things, I did make some little adjustments um to the PowerPoint. So, if it's not exactly like the one you're seeing, don't worry about it. It's not major changes. But um on our agenda, we are going to devote time today for the board study that's coming up for IBN.
