Um, one thing that I do notice, Kelly, is that the former policy really uh is centered around bullying, bullying prevention. It goes so far to as to define those bullying behaviors. And the new policy really does not include much in the way of that. It's it's sort of talking about how we're addressing behavioral issues that are coming up and what we're doing to sort of lead students back to um you know a a safer and healthier uh path for everybody as far as behavior is concerned. Um do you have any concerns, Kelly, about the removal of that language about bullying? Um so it there the two policies are are very um different in nature. I do think um you know I do think it's something that we're going to have to monitor. Um we could always add back in um any investigatory language um either through a policy or through regulations if we felt that the removal of the bullying policy um you know uh put us in a position where we needed to have some language in policy for that.
Uh yes, if you have any questions just let me know and I'll get those to Matt. He is at the DMS pause concert tonight is jail. I thought there about anything else over high school as I put in the front the front of the I guess the first paragraph is I feel like our mantra right now is all we do is win. If you guys are not cool enough to know that song, you should know it. Um, right now we're first place with going into regionals. As of right now, I'm headed up to watch because tomorrow in softball for Rock Creek and cross your fingers, we have two wins. We know we're going to get two wins and uh get to first. Um, Thursday we play everybody second because of baseball games. We got bumped up in baseball second. We play Thursday night, first round of regionals.
No, at the wreck. Sorry, that's what I meant. Yeah. Okay. So I remember up to a certain level. Yes. Yes. I remember the roof had to get worked on and we the whole roof. Yeah, I read that. Um do we insure it or do the ramp over there insure? question city I think they pass along some of that insurance don't they to us because I I think it was just on the invoices now there was a property and uh something insurance on there payable to the city of Claflin I think it's pro right but we still are pay I think so I have to look at the contract are you look you talking about Claplin or Bush then okay so yeah so we don't pay a renting fee or anything, but we do pay I mean other expenses. We cost share expenses instead of sharely.
[Music] special services. Oh, Rosemary, are you on coming at you? And if we'll just take two seconds and we'll Dr. Moody, can you check the thermostat, please, and see what it reads? I don't know what it feels like in the back of the room, but it's really cold in the front of the room. You go first class. said to 72, but it is currently 74. Thank you. Yes, ma'am. Hello. Hello. I'm president. I'm your um district e program coordinator. So, I'm just going to give you a a brief update on our e program here in Chino. Um one of the most asked questions I get is what do we do in Chino for our second language learners? So the super short really concise answer to that is we do um follow the AD approved uh pull out SEI model. That's the really short end. So um as far as participation counts for for um for us which is is probably the the most um uh important thing at the at the moment is um in September we started with 151 students.
Um, and we already did the sharing versus selling because we were just saying the sale of drugs to match. Um, so the one that we have for that Katie, you have like the principal may also contact law enforcement authorities to help make such a determination. The only the only thing that I can think of is one time we had pills that we couldn't identify like with a Google search. Um, and it just turned out to be like a version of like ibuprofen or something, but we did end up calling the police to come and like confiscate it. So, we have had to do that in the past and we don't know what we're dealing with. Um, and then obviously that kid got a very different punishment than what we initially thought. Yeah. I would just say just, you know, literally what the police do is go to medicine.com.
And so, I think it would increase our traffic flow significantly. It would be a problem. But, uh, we don't it's nothing we have to deal with right now. They're supposedly going to do this project this summer, but um later on in this meeting, you have a vote to approve our current safety hazards. We'll get those approved. Those will be approved for next year. If and when these this this bike path is uh installed, I'll have to go to the state and kind of give them our formula and have them look at it and have them approve another safety hazard with the bike path. So, we kind of had a similar situation with the bike path down Malador, but there's no curb there on that bike path, and the bike path actually went butts up with the road for a portion of the time. So, we definitely considered that a safety hazard.
And I believe we really have been working toward that end. And now I'm going to turn it over to special assignment sergeant in the kitchen sink Brian Naring who's going to give you all the good information on that. I had one joke and I actually brought a prop. Tell that joke. That's an always hat. So yeah, once a Panther, always a Panther Chief. So, uh, no. So, my name is Brian Narring. Uh, I've been with the police department for 22 years. And about 11 years of that, I've either been in the school or collaborating something with district 308. So, it's uh really been a pleasure to spend half of my career working with uh the the students and the staff. Um I can give props right now to Jeremy Bell's team, Bailey Campbell and Mike Freers. They are fantastic to work with. They have the biggest heart and care for the kids.
It's true. It is true. And it's just that So, it'll be interesting to see what our number goes. Oh, absolutely. Absolutely. But I know like um some people have talked to like Fountain Central and they didn't know if it was their year to reup because you can jump off C at any end of any year, but you can only jump on once every four years and they didn't know if it was their time to re-up and they were like they didn't know if they were going to be able to do it anymore either. Just be the same thing. Their numbers are not as good as they were. Well, we tried it. We did. We did. We tried it. And I mean, we'll see. I think my projection is like six months and I'll be back up where I need to be. But it's nice having that big cushion and now that I don't have it, I feel a little like I'm going to have a stroke one of these days and Vicky's going to have to pick me up.
Yeah, uh I'm just really excited for the opportunity. Look forward working with all the high school staff by you know to the excellence that we all set your stakeholders Ty um wanted to be. So I'm I'm really excited. I got to finish up my job now. We're moving forward, but they're kind of overlapping a little bit, but that's okay. It's uh it's exciting for me personally as as my career moves forward and also for Deli to have a chance to kind of get my hands in six through 12. So I'm excited for that. I appreciate kind words and confidence in myself and you guys moving forward. So thank you very much. Thank you. Okay. Uh we will be moving forward to the administrator reports right now. So, we will start with the elementary school. And to start off, I want to introduce our teacher. She has a bachelor's degree in early childhood education, a master's degree in curriculum instruction.
And I'll entertain any questions. I'm going to start at the end with the facilities update. I'm assuming it will be a similar format. We'll have like a general overview with really like high level stuff and then each building will have by building and of uh I think they were colorcoded even last time red yellow and green of the immediate needs for consideration of the board. I think Mr. Trout, Mr. Mclofflin will be bringing those back to you guys so you can help uh as a part of the planning process for future bonds. And this is for Cindy. I know we have the old ones in board docs. As soon as we get the new ones, can we make sure and have those in there as well? But I don't want to lose access to the old ones, too. Absolutely. Thank you, Mr. Wall. One other comment just as a friendly reminder to our community that uh from Memorial Day uh through we're hopeful for July 18th.
Any questions or comments? My comment I have is he was my uh principal at Bzer Middle School. So how fitting he was a wonderful man with an impact beyond words. So grateful. Well said. It's for that first person experience. Um, now I'm going with Oh, yeah. Mrs. D. I um will Mr. Davyy will we be having a ceremony when we actually are able to have him present? Thank you, board. Um, when we do the dedication of the buildings, middle schools in October, we will do a special ceremony for Mr. Davey there and uh will be with the auditorium. I'm assuming that will so I don't have to ask this question again. I know we've already dedicated the high schools. We'll do the same thing for Yeah, absolutely. We will do the middle schools. Roger. If all falls right, October of 2025 this fall and then the high school.
So more than just a signature on a million forms that they get at the beginning of the year and it goes for staff too. Y so so one of the things so so what Cindy was just going through. So Joe sent out some information to all of our principles. So I know Cindy's grabbed that. I know John's still working. I know Lisa is still working on get surveying our teachers saying how much screen time do our kids have? What what are they looking at so we can stop looking at that? Um, you know, even the conversation we had today at the high school, um, one of the things that we're able to refer back to is just as a reminder, mom and dad, if your kids sign this and you sign this and and they're held accountable and and that's one of the things we're we're teaching.
And so this uh this was a this was an experiment that was act it was an unintended experiment, right? So a router that I was doing woodworking took a chunk out of my finger, right? And so I took a picture and then I did a time course, you know, whatever this is a little later. little later. Now we're getting into September, October. By the end of the year, actually you can't quite see see it here, but you know the the fingerprints are totally restored, right? So now this I like to show as an example of everyday things that we take for granted, right? Which are actually wondrous and mysterious, right? You know, scientists cannot tell you how that works. We can tell you a little bit. We know something about some of the molecules that are important for it. We can talk about recruitment of different kinds of cells happening in there.
Um that said, I will say that we are seeing at times an overreiance on that policy where um uh sometimes behaviors that are that are not bullying in nature are being classified as that. Um and so trying to look at the why behind the behavior which is in the restorative practices policy so that we can make plans and interventions for students and that could that could very appropriately address a bullying situation. Um, so if a child was being bullied, you know, you're going to restore the behavior by the student that is the uh um the one that is doing the bullying in the situation, but you're also going to put supports into place for the student that that is um you know, being targeted by the bullying behavior in school. Um but it but it um takes out the language from the former bullying policy that really um is very disciplinaryheavy in nature um and really allows um the school uh cl I'm sorry the uh school climate coordinator to put into place both um supports and resources on both sides.
And so, um, some good things happening there. As a report, I do want to just mention, I mean, come on, forensics. We got second in state for forensics and we just have amazing kids. And then Matt De Matthew Doug was here um his honor. So, I have not had any sleep for the last month and it has been all worth it. Um we have amazing kids doing amazing things. Um and with that being said, I do want to talk about our wonderful teachers and teacher appreciation week. We had a lot of fun this last week and a lot of community support. Um and uh so we ended up with some chair massages on Friday. So that was very appreciated. Um and then one thing we're trying to tell our show our kids because you know we don't have to like our children every day just as a parent too but we love our kids and um Miss um Spangber if you saw on Facebook did an amazing project.
I wonder if they're comparable to what I'm getting at the numbers. I don't know exactly, but I Well, and when you're talking about just a gym to gym, that's not included and stuff, too. But again, that was part of the pitch was that it was all new. I'm looking at the contract here and it does say that the recreation will pay to maintenance. So to me the floor is maintenance. So I agree what Kayla is saying here. It's already taken in on this money. If you look at that agreement on one of the links now I'm new, but this is 2023 contract. Yeah. Do are we not operating under a current one? It's not getting a new one signed for the fiscal year. I know we paid them, but I didn't know. Right. The one that's on there is the one we have on file that we just continued with this year and it's pretty short.
Currently we are at 113 students um which is a a a downward trend of we lost around 31 students. Um we were at 142 in January. So um and that is a trend that we see um mirrored in our sister districts. Um but I would like to note that in the last five years that has not been the trend. Each year our numbers have increased. Um and so I'm happy to report that we uh will as of next year we will have one full-time EL teacher at each campus which is a fabulous thing. Um we did just um have our by the way the the the up upward trend has has been about 18% increase um in student enrollment for Yale program and qualifying for for the Yale program. English learners. English learners. Yeah. You know alphabet just get used to it, right? Yeah. Yeah.
Like that's literally what they put in their report. So, whatever you're doing, that's what they're doing is all I could say. Take it. You could just take it out then. Um um cuz when they encounter my adult clients with any kind of pill, they're like, I looked at the pill and I looked at the number and I went to medicine.com and I entered it in and this is what came up. So that's how they do it themselves. There's really no way for them to determine what it is unless it gets sent to the lab. Okay. Then I feel like we could just take it out. Yeah. Okay. Agreed. Okay. So then format So um okay so then the next one so Katie's question on page there are no page numbers on the second page about how do we determine who's um under the influence. So typically at the schools it's like if they're like slurring their words um if they are uh like just misbehaving or behaving like contrary to what they normally do um or like we've had kids who are like actually having a medical emergency because they didn't they didn't take well to the vape pen or whatever they were using.
That won't happen here. There will be a curb, but it is pretty close to the road, and it's 45 miles an hour. There are some other things there that cause it to be a safety hazard.
I can tell you that right now. And their collaborative efforts with me and our uh team is fantastic. Uh uh my uh Jeremy and I know each other very well at this point because I think we speak to each other at 9:00 at night probably three times a week collaborating on things. Uh I'm not sure my wife likes him though. But um probably not. Uh so to to go for that our biggest partnership here is uh or one of our biggest partnership is the team that I have a pleasure to work with which is our SRO that are in the schools. So, um, our SRO are assigned to each high school. They attend school anytime that kids are in session. Uh, they work with the kids. They have a whole bunch of different gamuts that we'll kind of go into and kind of roles and missions.
