P's ap8 timed writings mrs. woods awful calculus test coach London's 400 repeats and coach cranes twenty minutes of torture workouts I can say that I loved to learn and improvement if I went into a test or a workout or a game within I've got this attitude I wanted to push harder it takes hard work and grit to capture our dreams Messi said I start early and I stay late day after day year after year it took me 17 years and 114 days to become an overnight success one of the hardest things is making it into the finals and coming up short in the moment it is as if you feel like all your hard work is all for nothing you have let your coach down and you have let your team down without those heartbreaking losses I would never had the desire to push harder and practice a 100% all the time it took us three years of losses to finally come home as state champions if we are satisfied with where we are in the present then we miss out on what we could be running cross-country and track our two sports that require a lot of hard work to stay in shape if we run all school year long and then we choose not to run during summer it's as if we're back to square one it is as if we did not run at all in the first place we cannot let up we don't rely on school skilled talent or ability to get by the most successful people in the world are constantly reading and learning they are not complacent with what their current knowledge is and they are always improving because they love to the refine themselves something deep in my character allows me to take the hits and get on with trying to win Messi's quotes fits in with so much it was especially true with our soccer year this year our soccer teams model was conquer from within it means to get past your fear and doubts it means that you and only you can make the decision to win you decide to love the sport enough work hard enough and trust yourself and others enough to come to become champions we can't wait for opportunities to come we must make opportunities happen we work hard even if it takes years and years of work to succeed we must not blame others failures instead we look on ways to improve we cannot control our future they cannot control her speech err that is entirely up to us find a role model if you don't have one use Messi an example he could have blamed his size medical conditions poverty and mistreatment for his lack of success instead he's all of these weaknesses to add and to drive to become the best he showed everyone that love grit rigor precision and a desire to succeed made all the difference we can do the same thing together we are showing the world that we are ready to take the next step into the everyday life let's show everyone what the that what the Blue Ridge class of 2020 is made of thank you please welcome class valedictorian Paige flake my dad always says life's not fair and it's the truth as the class of 2020 we've missed out on many traditional American high school experiences powder puff and peach fuzz games our final stage performances our senior seasons of track baseball softball and golf senior pom the grand knight lock-in and most of all a traditional high school graduation however I think I speak for all of us when I say thank you to dr.

O'Malley ouais any other discussion all right mr. Steinman roll call Dori yes about yes Muhsin yes miss Martinez yes miss Morris yes miss Stevens yes miss Rosamond oh yes mister bottle air just abstaining from check three six five two five no did I miss DeFazio yes okay ruff two other managed to come before the board and new business with Missa O'Reilly I know didn't we discuss doing like phone blasts for the board meetings so peaceful parents you know cuz you know we're all so busy you know people might just forget it they'll let you know but if they had like a phone blast that day to remind them you know even if it's an even if it's a an extra meeting is there a way we can make that happen I just wanted to say thank you again for I know Beth Fisher and all the other people involved in that food pantry I saw the food they're collecting today and it really is amazing and she said 100 170 families I don't know more than that hundred families so that's awesome I think it's really great that everybody is taking part in that yeah think she said it was 150 families and something like 700 700 yeah crazy and I think it's awesome it's been been very good to be able to feed feed our community that's for sure just a couple quick notes before I move on we do have to do an executive session this evening and we do have to move some some HIV things is can we do the is the board comfortable with doing the HIV s now or do you want to go into executive session and then come out and do the HIV s because we go into it I gotta turn off YouTube to go into executive session we reviewed them in the past so I'm okay with it you guys are okay we did review them in a path we need is it is it just the hip that we need executive no we have discussed some other matters in executive I had a question about a hip all right so we're gonna have to nothing would they like a detail it's just when it says remote learning when when the discipline is so stiffened : remote learning so I'm like I don't understand what discipline that is or they just can't do it now or yeah I don't have it I don't have a specific answer to that at the moment yeah I don't have an answer for that at the moment all right let's do working for the public for discussion items so apparently we have seven items first one is from this is all Riley 7:45 school hath lain participate town council meeting in real time through both feet in the o mean meeting in their questions this message puts clover Tigers at disadvantage and does not allow forgive antique-style that is typically senior board meetings this is the method chosen by the board and it's also been chosen by all the districts at funny that this was the method that we were going to use considering there's been some security issues and some issues with security and people taking or resume meetings so this is the decision in the direction that we went our next question is from Patricia O'Reilly 745 schoolhouse lien wondering is the next bill meeting can be in person with masks wearing in social distance protocols people have been going to table going to Cosco throughout the pandemic religious services have started for several weeks now religious services are more comparable with indoor gatherings that would be happening at a BOE meeting BOE members would have been in to indoor gatherings may offer input on how the next in-person BOE meeting may happen I am also willing to let BOE members now have other institutions have held indoor gatherings in New Jersey [Music] I'll let you guys time to respond to that idea the only thing I can say is the board is that comfortable in public I know that Michelle is is you know just came back from out of state and we have a governor's restriction of people who were out of state coming back in a state for 14 date quarantine again this is this is a matter of the board and when the knee they want to be back in person that's when back in person happens yeah I put out an email to the entire board and we had decided since there were multiple people that did not feel comfortable being in public that the hybrid method we tried the last time was not suitable because the person who was at home couldn't really hear things and it just so it's an all or none or either all going to come back or we're not and since you know there was like I said several people that were not comfortable we decided at this at this juncture that we were going to keep it on zoom present it also really quick doesn't it also save us the I guess we can say like the money if we had a meeting right then we ever have to have janitors there to make sure that they clean everything afterwards before and then we have to make sure that there's everyone has a mass or they have some text themselves isn't it just too much of a liability especially when people are trying to restrict having indoor congregations to X amounts I mean yeah I get what you're saying like I'm just well again I think I think you know um how many so but how the chairs how far apart each is could you get 60 per chair in in the you have to rope it off you have to count like yeah do X's it's logistics it can happen but it's going to take monitoring well not only that but again and miss months and rate this logistics but we also have to talk about what's the protocol to come into the building we do we have to have somebody here take everybody's temperature to do do we have to you know we're going to be putting in certain certain protocols for people to get into the building during a school day is those protocols going to be for a public meeting as well are those protocols going to be for anybody getting into a building at any point in time like there are a moat like I said at the beginning of the beam and there are a multitude of questions and a multitude of things that we all have to get through before we can say this is how we're going to operate right so that's why I'm asking everybody for their patience as we as we get into our restore committees and we get to answer these questions and we get to come back in this day here's our plan and this is how we're going to handle each and everything that we're gonna do moving forward I hope I hope that makes sense the public gathering versus a school they are two entirely different things I agree because we have to write everybody right there's a distinction between the two all right so our next question is from Patricia O'Reilly 745 schoolhouse Lane I imagine that seven teachers will be going medical or other types of leaves come September all great fully staffed at this point are you dealing with staff shortages count for this coming September as a health care worker I know many of my co-workers that went out well you orders being that they work during the height of the pandemic has the Board of Ed or the superintendent reached out to any other industries to see how they manage staffing disruptions that have taken place as a result of kovat the long and short answer is I'm not going to talk about medical fees of any kind I think that's protected issues as for staffing I am very comfortable that we are almost fully staffed for September and when it comes to you know staffing we will do what we need to do to make sure our classrooms are staffed number four Patricia O'Reilly 7:45 schoolhouse Lane right now people who live or work in [Music] congregated living facilities ie prisons group homes nursing homes have to undergo a weekly coded testing will the same thing happen to staff and students who are attending in person school no okay next question is from Jackie beers kindergarten teacher at the annex I am requesting that we have a full-time nurse staffed at each building Lamont and Lamont addicts I understand that our numbers are low during this time I do think it's practical and in the best interest of safety of students and staff to have a fully licensed RN to each building to monitor the health situation in each building this is more than just taking care of the occasional sick child as I asked the board to please strongly consider hiring a second full-time nurse Lauren Paul kovitch 182 West High Street in Bound Brook well one classroom teacher would be responsible for only the in-class students or also the remote learners as well I do not believe it will be feasible for one teacher to work with work in the classroom and also handle all of the remote students what is the plan for that also what is the plan for remote learners with specials will their work be different than those in school I don't have the answers to that yet we're still working on our plan number seven is from sue del conte what will the daily environment be like for staff and students who have doctor's notes that determine they are not to teach in district buildings I'm not going to answer that question at this time Laura packs 10 page P 10 P Street where can we see approve resolutions 8.1 and 9.1 from tonight's agenda they're on the agenda there is nothing for 8.1 we didn't there are no policies so there is nothing nope all right moving up which one was the other one no dr.

right the school board and the Blue Ridge administration faculty and staff for replacing our graduation with something equally memorable especially Thank You mr. Webb and mr. crane for all of your hard work to make tonight possible time and time again you have shown your love and concern for us your students and we are grateful for you you have helped to eliminate the pain associated with this unexpected experience by giving us closure Thank You teachers for putting up with us all these years and expanding our minds thank you for not only being our teachers but for being our friends you really are superheroes and we love you thank you to our families for supporting and encouraging us we wouldn't have made it here without you lastly thank you to my classmates and peers you've made these past four years an incredible adventure as I thought of what I could possibly say to you all in this night the night of our unique graduation I struggle to put into words our experience well it's the same for all of us it's different for each of us this year more than any other you all are the inspiration here tonight I have watched this class put people first serve each other fight with each other and then make up and learn from mistakes you have dedicated years to navigate classes and competitions military programs and jobs outside of school we have been fiercely loyal to those we care about and we've protected each other we have had to split our time between friends and school work but we all know which one is a priority many have sacrificed time for fine arts performances and rehearsals many have spent hour upon hour outside of school to improve their athletic talents and represent blue ridge on and off the field court and Matt we have diligently attended sporting events losing our voices to support and inspire our peers to victories and more importantly to support them in losses we have worked hard to increase school spirit and younger students and in our community we have become a part of the blue ridge legacy together we have experienced loss and victory together we've gone through high school together we've survived this global crisis and now together we're closing the this chapter of our lives and moving on to new things we will never relate to the rest of the world's traditional high school experiences but they will never understand nor relate to ours we high school graduates of the class of 2020 share a special connection because of our unique role in this global pandemic countless people are already looking at us as we graduate in the midst of chaos we have received something that no other class has attention I mean every graduating class always thinks they're special but let's be honest no one ever remembers them it's different for us we aren't actually more special than all of the graduates who have come before us but when we tell someone I graduated in 2020 it will mean something people will recognize that that statement entails we will tell them about of our strength and our determination in the midst of incredible stress we responded to the changes in our lives with incredible maturity privately celebrating our accomplishments while respecting the lives lost and the uncertainty running rampant in the world today I believe that many doors will be opened to us because of our unique experience of graduating in the midst of global panic it is now our responsibility to honor those opportunities continuing to act with the same maturity and strength if we continue striving valiantly in the midst of life that doesn't go as planned we will seize those opportunities surprise the world in closing I will share an excerpt of one of my favorite speeches known as the man in the arena given by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1910 it is not the critic who counts not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of Deeds could have done them better the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood who strives valiantly who airs who comes short again and again because there's no effort without error and shortcoming but who does actually strive to do the deeds who knows great enthusiasms the great devotions who spends himself in a worthy cause who had best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat fellow graduates that is the best advice that I can pass on to all of us let's spend ourselves in worthy causes dared greatly to accomplish goals by doing so we will each continue to capture the world's attention as individuals as the class of 2020 and is a remarkable generation thank you please welcome class valedictorian Gretchen Knox he's gonna hold that speech for me alright so for this speech I decided to do the same idea I had for an election speech my eighth grade year my plan was to solve a Rubik's Cube during the speech and then on some cliche line about how I would solve the school's problems like I solved the Rubik's Cube the irony is that that speech was a total failure but you might already know by the fact that I'm up here that have a little bit of a compulsive need to do well and therefore I'm gonna try this again and hope I don't repeat my mistakes so mr.

Gallagher 9.1 that's weight one a nine-point it's just that little quirk on our board Doc's that makes them like a head holder yeah just the fleet really be nine point nine point one is just introducing two and three yeah no it's not it it looks like it has nothing there but that's just an introduction yeah okay that's all the current questions we have for open to the public I say just give it a couple more minutes in case anyone needs a redirect hey Bob what we're reading I'm gonna shut off YouTube when we go into executive session to go through what we have to go through I guess when we come out I'll just go back on YouTube for them to vote on the HIVs yeah is it is it easy enough to do that or I don't know how that works pretty sure it works that way okay well if we if we go if we're not live will that link that they're linked to right now will that expire and that will they have to then go back to the link and read well this is again it's not about the link it's about going to our YouTube channel so in our YouTube channel okay pop back up I was live on our YouTube channel okay alright Debbie Bacall an 8 Dittmer Whitehouse Station there is no link on the agenda for where the meeting is again it's going to the YouTube channel and Emily secara with 798 Bulmer Farm Road what is the plan if the if the if the a staff member student test positive I don't have an answer to that at this time would it be fair to say that there's not an answer at this time not that because there's no guidance well have an answer eventually we just don't have an answer right now I think we had protocols and and everything else and it's all again it's all predicated on what what's our school day gonna look like how are we approaching you know like there's certain things we know we know we're in the isolation rooms we know there's going to be contact tracing the question because he's doing the contact tracing and again I think the hard part for us is and we're still waiting on guidance from the Health Department and the health officials because there's some and again this is this where I don't like money in the waters but there's some confusion on there's confusion on if you if you're in contact with a kid who ends up a kid or staff member who ends up testing positive for COBIT they actually have some sort of a guidance checklist right that's that dead and what I understand is it's it's not that just that you're in contact with them in hoodie you have to be in contact with with them for a length of a certain amount of period of time what the conditions were like they have like three or four close physical contact yeah there's like three or four things they have to they have to find each other if if those conditions are met then you then you have to quarantined then you have to get tested so I don't want to give out the wrong information on those things and again we we don't have all this stuff down ourselves yet once we have it down ourselves then it's easier for me to communicate it out to people and I hate giving out the wrong information because then it's just putting the wars and I'm confusing people and I really don't want to but I think it's fair to just say that we don't have the answers we're still waiting like and I said that no yeah we don't have we we have very few in at the moment right panic parents and caregivers we there's no real answers right now I mean I feel like the the only way like we won't get a definite answer until once we finish everything submitted and it's because Murphy's changing everything so often it's like we might have this policy now but now you know two days later it's a completely different policy and then it's like we're back to square one in certain cases and and that's that is a little frustrating because you know we may get some guidance and then he reverses a couple days later it's we haven't we have another question that just came in this one's from Colleen Rick from 6:33 Crescent Drive from the survey done last week is their survey results that you can share on what percentage picked either way I guess I can share that we had about 1200 parent responses or family responses um right now it looks like it's about 45% picked virtual and 55% picked in person and that helps us out tremendously because that's gonna be able to help us guide our planning process on Wednesday for our for our hybrid learning model that we're we're gonna try and put the other here dr.

Webb scrambled this for me a little bit ago and I'm gonna take you on a little metaphorical journey throughout high school so freshman year we show up to high school not really knowing who we are but excited about what high school could bring at the same time however it seems like this big large problem of the next four years that we have to get through before starting our real life we take the first small step in high school though like solving a cross on a Rubik's Cube by establishing friend groups and starting the sports or clubs we plan on continuing throughout high school but mainly we just wish we weren't freshmen anymore because everyone hates freshmen and if only we were a sophomore at least we would be kind of cool but before you know it it is sophomore year and you start to make me feel a little cooler and older and everyone turns 16 and starts doing that subtle yet glaringly obvious brag of leaving their keys on their desk in every classroom so that everyone knows that you just got your license but really you just wish you were a junior and you could leave whenever you wanted for lunch and you just don't want to be an underclassmen anymore nonetheless more of the problem of high school is complete and you move on to your junior year everyone you during this year you realize that oh crap I need to make some serious decisions now all right because everyone starts asking you what do you want to do for college have you started looking at scholarships but really you're just watching those seniors graduate and you're sad everyone else is leaving and wishing you could be done and just go with them senior year though it's finally our turn right we're finally allowed to have senioritis although if you're me you were told you had senioritis the second day of your freshman year but anyway we start to really think we figured out who we are and we make all the big decisions about the next few years finally what we've been dying to have finished for the last four years is almost over right our focus has already shifted and we're just ready to have solved highschool we want to get on to the next part of real life while simply enjoying the last weeks of high school the class of 2020 had almost reached the satisfaction of solving or finishing high school like I've almost reached the satisfaction of finishing this when we had a bit of a wake-up call we lost so we had been dying to be throughout all of high school lost everything from senior prom to senior ditch day that short lived feeling of elation that comes with a completion or success faded more quickly than it would have without the virus this is a good reminder however not to take things for granted my point is that we spent all of high school trying to get through the problem of high school to get to the best part of high school only to realize that what we enjoyed were the times throughout it if there's anything the virus should have shown us it's that anything can change at any time and nothing is permanent if you cannot see the good in each moment now and be happy what makes you think you can enjoy each moment in your future as Annie Bernard said I wish there was a good way to know you're in the good old days before you've left them so my parting advice is simply to enjoy the rest of the years of your life enjoy each day and don't waste time wishing you were at the next part yes set goals but enjoy the process along the way so whether it's a college degree or new career don't worry about completing the next part of your life but enjoying every step along the way thank you let's hear some honks for those speeches please all right thank you hey I don't know if you guys have seen the photos taken by Mike Mahoney online but you can go down and down you can go into the inline online and download those for free they're beautiful photos and we'd like to thank Mike for taking those pictures we'd also like to thank mr.

Frank I was reading his is a question and answer piece to us and one of the things that he's stressing very much to us is their kids that are not coming to school medical notes or anything else he's telling us to do live instruction with them so this is coming for our chief medical inspector for the district if we're gonna do that for medically fragile kids we should be doing it for all the kids that are at home so again you know I agree I I hear I hear what was said but I also know that right now unfortunately do we is not the final say the governor's office is the final say well wait and see what the final word is and the governor has been really consistent about whatever the locals want new nj.com just has an article that Jersey City parents can keep their kids on for remote learning if they choose and this was an hour ago so like I said like like you said eight it could have changed since you know Wednesday since I had we had that meeting which I hope it's the reason because yet I agree if a parent doesn't want their kid to go to school and just wants them to do complete remote learning they should have that option they don't feel safe our next question is from Chris Schaffner 6:09 region quarter on tonight's agenda there's the link to live video there's no link to a YouTube channel it was my if this was my first time trying to watch the meeting I would have no idea where the meeting is I will check on that let's see i'm lisa cara 17 maybe boomer farm road if they staffer ever is ii have to be out 1 plus weeks what is the sub plan i don't think we have subs 1 to work again we're just not there in planning Lauren Paxson 10p street I am now concerned for September if the BOE can I meet with 11 people how can we do this with hundreds okay next one at least the counter which SEM 98 Bowman Road how many parents did not submit the survey answer what about the influx of registrants that we always get in late August early September so there's so many questions you are in in such a difficult position I don't envy you well basically our enrollment is down not to scare anybody but right now normally we have somewhere around 90 preschool kids registered we were anticipating 120 preschool kids registered right now we have 40 normally we have anywhere between 150 and 160 kindergarten kids registered for the district right now we only have 115 currently we're projecting a hundred student drop in enrollment in addition to that just as we've noticed certain families are no longer here in town so we're looking at probably somewhere around 250 to 300 student drop in enrollment this year versus the influx that we normally get so again we've taken that into account with our data collection and we'll be using that on Wednesday when we when we meet with the restart committee so it sounds like with a lower enrollment combined with the 45% possibly students staying home we will be able to do a little bit more creative things with some staffing and distancing and it actually with with the smaller enrollment especially should really help out for this year yeah and and I did send a you know brief out to to the staff members that where our plan is looking at co-teaching every classroom so we're and we're gonna few teachers in every classroom with smallpox that include high school to middle school in high school high schools the only anomaly just because of the way it's structured and and the certifications that you have to have but pretty much everywhere else we're probably looking at a co-teaching situation okay a solution just the animal that you just can't wrap your hands around sometimes right now when you say co-teaching just just as pre-k as an example that's two teachers or could be a teacher and para could be a teacher in a power okay after pre-k you talking kindergarten and up it's to two certified teachers okay I mean you got to realize that I think people kind of kind of don't realize me between ASI special legend clusion you know we we do have a lot of intention to begin with so yeah and that's not even including we have student teachers coming in this year as well from Rutgers so there's probably gonna be classrooms they're gonna have three three bodies in it which helps us out even more with some of the online virtual when I'm on in small group stuff as well one more question Emily sick average 1790 Ballmer farmhouse Road Lewis Co teaching the ESL ASI especially teachers will those teachers not be doing the typical jobs can't answer that right now until we have a full plan but I would say I would anticipate everything's on the table at this moment classroom it depends on the level but I would say right now is probably somewhere between 10 and 12 class on a normal sized classroom I had everybody going to measure classrooms and everything else I mean you know certain classrooms Mary Ann Boyd 41 West High Street with the possibility on remote teaching should the district be looking at a variety of programs the teachers can use to enhance learning and can I attend the IT department facilitate this instruction instructing the teachers on how to use them our answer is yes we we are looking to streamline some of the things that we're doing and we are looking to do a number of professional development activities with teachers both virtually and if necessary in person again we got to get through the planning process we got it get through and have a plan that's our first step once the plan is done then we're start working all the other little pieces that we got to put together with you know the team teaching however delivering instruction how we're teaching teachers on how to how to use platforms and things like that that we're gonna be using this year the answer is yes to your question and I would love to give you more information I just can't right now until we get a plan I don't know if you have this figured out yet either I'm just wondering do you are you planning right now to have all the kids you signed up to be in school there at the same time in other words you're not gonna split like a B or morning afternoon they're all gonna be there at the same time right okay I was just wondering you know selfishly zyv two and if they were split that would be an absolute nightmare again you know I was listening to some colleagues and and I really don't I don't envy some of the bigger districts I really don't because some of the bigger districts have have enormous busing problem like busing routes and trying to figure out how you're gonna social distance on a boss but then taking into account like the kindergartner the 3rd grader and the high schooler they were all in the same family and making sure they're all going to school at the same time on the same day on the same bus and trying to make all those ad schedule I listen I'm pretty good at stuff like that and I just my head started shaking and saying I couldn't even begin to wrap my head around that Emily sakera Ridge is there a hard date that the planning has to be completed the answer is yes the hard date is we got to get it done and to the county and back to us for weeks before we can open school it has to be out to the community for weeks before school so we have limited time left to put this plan together the state really didn't give us much time they gave us basically four weeks and we're probably two weeks in and I have about two weeks left ready to go to executive session yeah all right motion to go into executive motion packets back in motion mr.

I think for social distance P alright okay from the proposed budget ax to the tonight's tonight's presentation there's very few changes but let me just review the highlights so as I covered during the budget proposal one of the things that I wanted to point out is that three point five five percent increase to the baseball the three one five five percent increase to the base level is four thousand three hundred and fifty nine dollars and then over to the right hand side is the one point four five percent increase coming from the classroom side but that's throwing out remember into three different funds fund 11 5 12 and 1:30 and fund well the reason why I have a circle around it is tied to performance pain and most school districts because it's time to performance day they decided that that I've talked to they decided to go ahead and give the five percent increase is from Emma know because of the fact that that portion is checked informant screening and that's what Lauren's decided to do is pay the entire so that's one important things I wanted to point out and then the other things I wanted to point out is under the Arizona cares which is the governor's plan it regards to the instability is it guarantees that regardless of whether or not your enrollment goes down for FY 2021 he has guarantee that he's going to allow us 98% funding either based of minor 1920 180 dia or your 40th day in moment so what we decided to do for the 2021 budget is used the 100th day and go back for 1920 and the Box down on the bottom right hand corner remember in FY 2010 tier funding wasn't implemented for the M adobe's but because of Arizona cares he's changed that a little bit but I wanted to point that out for you that's one of the things that we're going to be moving more towards to maintenance and operation so for example if Roman walls at least were guaranteed there were only going to be dropping by 2% yes if we experience injuries but my doctor my pension will have the ability to experience the increase and then the teacher may increase on the next page this critic is already on our website this is the burden that requirement to show that we have passed on the increase for the last three years that the governor has has given us to increase for the 20% as you didn't see this year it shows that year-over-year from 20 to 21 we have given an 8 percent increase and that was just based on the teachers that are coming in your citizens think the average teacher salary last year from my home from FY 18 to their 5 21 we have there under 25 versus increase to teachers and again this is an all regular website as part of a requirement for the governor's 20% increase basic support level there are no changes there again we are using their 100 a diversity groovy and out on calculation the only thing I've done is giving you the subtotal calculation it shows 1177 171 and if you go to the gazelle this support level rating calculations they're reading one in twenty two hundred and sixteen point nine six six the additional add-ons but do you want to point out that Ridge has an additional five seventy thirty two dollars for the average teacher salary expenditure the average state experience level is nine point five years the ridges number of years of experience for teachers is eleven point nine years because of that factor he'll receive an additional five hundred and seventeen thousand dollars worth the teacher experience as I showed on the first page to transportation support level was based upon prior year funding because of the fact that we had a coded hit in March we are not able to use the transportation route miles from previous year which was at 1280 2 miles and then allowing us to increase their transportation support level by thirty two thousand six hundred six hundred twenty six miles the district additional assistance still based upon prior eating young the cut is still being it's still happening but at least the reduction is not as bad as it used to be announced be introduced at twelve percent rather than need twenty four percent now our reduction of this one hundred and thirty four thousandths or a district additional allocation is 748 $609 again we're transferring two hundred twenty-five thousand nine hundred fifty five dollars to common home for the energy and water savings of these payment we're supposed to receive full funding in FY 22 I don't know what's going to happen for the general budget limit page upon page 7 of 8 this is where the Commission for the maintenance and operation budget limit happens one of the things I want to point out is North Bullitt down the lead as an operation override it's so 15 percent because of the election loss it is now down to ten percent so we are seeing a reduction of seven thousand seven hundred and thirty two dollars their budget now let's carry forward right now some estimate that we're going to carry over from FY twenty is three hundred and sixteen thousand six hundred eighty others when I ran some numbers just before I came over it's now up to 355,000 so that's going to marry until we finish out the fiscal here at the end of August so currently right now for just as estimate just as a placeholder is three different $16,000 prop one two three this is one of the changes that were to see when I proposed the budget weeks ago I had said we don't know if this money was going to continue the governor came back and said he's going to helic 875 million dollars statewide so that funding hasn't actually increased by forty five thousand three hundred and ten dollars for the district so we're seeing that line-item increase up to one hundred and thirty five thousand nine hundred and thirty-two dollars on page eight of the need for the under stripped of capital and clusters of site fund budget limits are understood to capital budget limit is six hundred and seventy two thousand thirty nine dollars and again this concludes of the area over one hundred and seventeen thousand ninety five dollars and that may change again this is just an estimate depending on how we finish out the fiscal year for identified twenty and then for the classroom aside fund which is also prop 301 for 111 we're looking at two hundred and thirteen thousand four hundred sixty nine dollars this is tied to teacher's salary whereas animating one thousand six hundred and fifty one dollars on average per teacher plus benefits for 112 or just a performance paid on we're looking at 44th now four hundred forty four thousand six hundred nineteen dollars three thousand three hundred and two dollars worth FTE plus benefits to be paid out to teachers for performance pay and then fund thirteen which is also tied to teachers salaries four hundred and twenty six thousand seven hundred and ninety seven on average and a look at three thousand two hundred and forty seven dollars or FTE plus certificates and then for stating causation assistants were looking at receiving Judah now two million nine hundred and thirty five thousand two hundred and sixty five dollars per year we receive approximately 23% from stabilization now we're looking at about receiving twenty five or seven seeking state equalization and 25 percent from property taxes so at least it's going down like a change or sample property taxes and then the last page shows the estimated taxes right 2.1 we're looking at primary tax rates to be going down from three dollars in the ATT sense to $3.58 now the secondary portion which funds they comin home override the cost plus p funds which case before the pelant's going down from seventy seven so most 71 cents to 43 seven so forty four cents and then the Class B from Class B bonds going down a dollar forty six to a double or thirty eight your dog 39 so overall reduction in tax rates five proximately to fifty eight cents that's all recipe for taxes for EFI 21 I do have the budget forms if you have any specific questions we can put it up on the screen if you have any specific questions in regards to the budget forms there any questions in regards to the presentation or the budget forms themselves having specific questions about the budget levels don't think you can thank you there now the question is will adjourn this hearing we will return when we run both statewide but we will return at five o'clock or regularly scheduled working that I'm glad legislators or on the consent agenda is there any item how do you [Music] to create content and so is one thing [Music] that's one of the nuances so most of our general education they'll still be in a similar pattern that's currently the other questions at one question will be difficulties and the student starts their educational an obstacle situation and that decides to come back after a period of time to the classroom will there be any problem that pit Godhead earth can they go ahead to the same students choosing bottom line only they still follow the science digital times which the long hand and participe okay so they have a log and then participate on a daily basis to take credit over that name correct okay and so part of this will be setting the expectations of students while the principal's troubles we have substance that a great job and despite our teachers best ever associates to interlock and so you do that and a 24 percent to 50 percent is kind of great though interestingly silicon second pragmatically it's never going to be blocking once they're complaining about the parents that work very diligently helping their students still super difficult one of the things that was the tiny segments of the Chrysler kidnapping for four days how far subject must appease her office so this was claimed by Madam President I'm offended if excuse me involved become actors they that they need to be cat collection once everybody's the collection would stay different ethical period of course it is tell us the family Kingdom family status always accept but that's intentional people only in out of the set of categories and system so that that's a question I had [Music] alright and we still are required by the state [Music] three point two so now is your chance to ask any questions make a comment about that I think about the budget we just have presented I have appreciated that the state recognized the need to not focus on that [Music] anyway the state made clear that we are able to use our previous numbers so we aren't having to scramble to like lay off teachers if we did you know like a focus of our members commented by third we still have an opportunity to provide a constant education system plan for the future and even they needed to penalize was an excellent move by the state and support was huge on land okay Tina you Joanna super didn't hop sylvia allen went to bat for schools and the governor be devastated was surly is going to be beneficial for the leftist and so we put the shirt on our beaches here's those Jews that have integral past sure this just allows Ronnie to come on in and be an additional cyber for the current banknotes that we have currently we have several big snipers in each one of the areas but I just wanted him to be dead Adonis is a digital signer herself to reports in front of you first of all I want to cover is the unsealed operation has tax credit and student activities these are basically the end of the report in a bit missile your report Student Activities the imbalances or exhibit operations tax credit and student activities for June thirty eight thirty two thousand twenty was clogzilla operations one hundred twenty thousand ninety one dollars seventy cents for the tax credit accounts we had two hundred and five thousand thirty one dollars seventy three cents and then the Student Activities account we had one hundred ninety one thousand three hundred and seven dollars and twelve cents but the attachment orange shows the beginning balances as of July 1st all of the revenues that particularly attend fiscal year as you can see we took four hundred and sixty four thousand nine hundred and sixty three dollars and seventy cents so that's almost half a big acknowledged each one of those accounts and the expenses 443,000 they're able to donate and then the next report is the operating statement cash flow statements virtually 20/20 if you go to page three that report you'll see that the words of revision number three for maintenance the budget was thirteen million nine hundred thirty one thousand fifteen hundred seventy one dollars a year debated expenses through June 30th was thirteen billion one hundred and seventy eight thousand six hundred twenty dollars what we still have a comfort to finish out the years to four hundred thousand seven hundred forty dollars we did transferred out the energy water savings lease payments that two hundred twenty thousand three hundred and eighty three dollars to eleven mentioning out to that fund and our budget balance currently is three hundred and fifty two thousand five hundred two dollars so I inventors of my anticipate that are carried over so to me I'm into and then on page four you'll see that was a revision balance for the capital fund at $695,000 hearing aid expenses is five hundred and fifty two thousand eight hundred eighty nine dollars encumbrances is two hundred and thirty two thousand six hundred and fifty seven dollars this makes it look like we have a negative budget balance of ninety one thousand seven hundred and sixty eight dollars but just like I had mentioned in May you are going to roll over appeal for those computers that we had initiative for $197 did your role for that he'll appeal already because we didn't receive those computers of telephone last week that freed up $197,000 magicians that now and we have a budget balance carry a burden of approximately one hundred thousand dollars in capital so we won't have it make it a budget balance to finish top of his career the cash flow statement for maintenance and operation on page five you'll notice that at the end of June we had nine hundred and forty two thousand eight hundred forty dollars so we finish top three well as far as cash while support who didn't call me to say hey you never and thinking of cash accounts do so that was pretty good so as you can tell I mean since October all the way through and the Chairman we had any possible captain Harville our lineage at all we had a negative cash did where we carry with us and then on page six is the district traditional assistance of our capital for cash flow remember how we had a negative cash balance in May that corrected itself once of the county treasurer's office coast [Music] so again this will be delayed further past because then we don't know that's a reason we said we're starting we are ten computers will be handed out and not enough do we allow them use advances and we'll make sure we get those computers to our skills as well the disease so Allah this doctor came here is a three page document outlines the specific procedures recommended by ingenuity religious history of the trust paper right dollar insurance board languidly and there are certain guidelines comic magazine Center for Disease Control that must be followed will be implemented this will not be this will be school in terms of the energy and the phone

can't be overstated desperate arrogant one disability late October and gives don't have access to computers for beginner that doesn't mean for schools we will not be a bit ridiculous I can't thank the

some work to do when it comes to keeping our servicemen and women safe as someone with family members in the military this is something that hits too close to home well it's not in our control the safety of our students is so for this reason I'm asking that obviously once everything resumes I'm asking that we stop allowing military recruiters onto our campuses if a student has a genuine desire to join the military there are more than enough resources to guide them I just don't feel that recruiters need to be on campus as members of the board one of the duties is to the safety of our students so until our military can show us that they can take care of our youth they shouldn't be allowed on our campuses I want to be clear this is not and should not be a political issue it's strictly about the safety of our students again because I personally have family in the military I feel this so I feel if they cannot keep our students safe they should not be recruiting them thank you thank you miss Ramos okay and it says Krystal Vargas would like to comment is there a crystal Vargas she already spoke that with CP that's what I thought okay thank you so much just double-checking all right so at this point there are no more hands we will move forward okay we will move to item 4.0 or study session 4.1 okay school update Thank You Norma so this is the part that

Stewart if we can figure out what that noise is it sound like a washing machine Jeannie are you still there because it's coming from the one that changed the noise on my you're not getting any noise are you muting your microphone by chance between conversation because it's coming from your speaker on yours we have you and Doug on different speakers and that the buzzing noise is coming for yours could you try my muting that between conversations and we'll see if we're still hearing it on our end okay yeah there's no more noise right here okay sounds good there now a couple of questions of dr. Stewart could I finish maybe add two more slides one or two more slides and then answer yeah okay thanks doc I'll come back to you the last subcommittee that we have set up involved special protocols for employees and students who display symptoms of have been exposed to or have been diagnosed with coab in nineteen and those are those have been developed I worked with Eileen and Darlene down in the business office our HR and benefits people because we're obligated to follow guidelines that protect people's privacy and yet protect all of the other people who are on the worksite and our children in our schools so we have very specific guidelines that were given to us by the trust and of course we trust them to do that because they're the ones are going back on if we have any problems so just as each trade does its part of the overall construction of a house each committee has submitted an initial or draft plan for each of these required and elective elements task force has reviewed the drafts and we are working to resolve redundancies we don't need any of these plans to overlap more than necessary and we've also are working on any conflicts so that the plans all fit together further ideas have been sent back to the committee's for more detail and we're at the point now actually detailing the project so this would be at this point yeah that's a great question given and given the governor's order that we do not have in person school until August 17th the recommendation that I've given the board that will be part of the agenda for the regular meeting is that we open in virtually on the 29th so we can open on time so kids have exposure to learning and I will tell you that the committee's that have been meeting have done some a pretty phenomenal planning because it's my belief that it's better for our kids to have something than nothing and they've been able they've been with nothing for over two months now or almost two months now and so it's so for the opening part Doug you know and the task force is recommending and I'm recommending that we open virtually on the 29th just as our calendar says and then make decisions about what happens on the 17th depending on whatever the governor does to that but to make some decisions wait until as late as possible to make any of those decisions so in in that member that I sent you sent the board members relative to that agenda I'm suggesting that the board meet on July 13 I mean I'm sorry August 13 which would be the last of those first 10 days of school to decide what we're going to do next and with the understanding that one of the things I'm going to say later this little slide presentation is other than just shutting things down which can be done instantaneously moving from one phase to another in the plan it's not quite so instantaneous but that's not a subject for us necessarily to be dealing what this evening I will try to make everything as quick and smooth the transition as we can but we're going to have to recognize there might be some kind of glitches the first couple of days whatever plan we move to after the day okay anything online right yes okay you also mentioned a little bit earlier well it's it's kind of a convoluted thing but Arizona Arizona regulations are that when you have students in online and of course Arizona has an official Arizona online instruction program and some districts have that and there there are all kinds of rules and regulations that that guide that in this case based on how the governor wrote his executive orders he's essentially suspended for my understanding is suspended for the rest remainder are for all of the school year the regulation that we would have to apply for that aoi official aoi program and follow all those and guidelines however the funding for Aoi is at 0.95 pursue the additional funding the additional funding that that he has put forth 200 and over 200 million dollars in Arizona care is funds which is totally different from us cares funds can be then applied for my districts to make up the difference between between the 95% funding for those Aoi kids and the 98% that they're saying it would be the maximum that they would you know that 2% that they would be the maximum they would take from our budget so see how it's a little complicated here it's kind of some interesting man but the thing is that you know we would apply for those funds and as needed to fill in that gap between 95 percent for each kid and 98 percent that they wouldn't probably have the special yeah because I was under the understanding that we are getting 98% funding would be our lowest so they actually kicked in that state yes money to bring us from the 95 to the maybe if that's the purpose of that funds we just have to apply for it we have to apply but it's not going to affect whether the kids are in school will still get to our 98 complicated but we get there and if you recall when we talked about the proposed budget earlier this month over last month whenever I'd lost track I'd want to strike him about four months now but when we talked about the proposed budget actually at the end of last month if you'll recall I said I told you that I had put in a reserve 2.8 for some of our budget I put in a reserve half a million dollars to help us for that 2% so it's more than the 2% but it gives us some cushion and that's that that 98% is based off last year's hundred they count last year so if we get students that the parents decide to just keep them home and don't show up we still have our 98 percent but that will come into Arizona cares where we have to file paperwork tonight sorry so the critical part query though is that we must have the kids enrolled yeah so as you'll see a little bit later I'm going to show you what our biggest challenge is right now okay and part of it we think that part of that challenge is that parents haven't been waiting to see what our plan is now we rolled out the framework of our plan last month but they're waiting to see what are more details on it and that's what I was saying a minute ago I am I will tell you that in eight days time these committees have put together in their foot straps some pretty amazing plans and and we're going to be able to as much as possible give kids a really quality education as quality as we can make it as an online presentation part of this planning it's the fact that we already know that we have kids with chronic health conditions we know kids I had a call today about a student who has a brand new diagnosis that's pretty ugly we know we're gonna have parents very nervous about sending their kids back to school you see that in some of the things from call to the public we want to assure parents that we are still going to provide education for their kids if they're enrolled in our school even when we can come back physically if the parents choose not to have them come back or if the kids don't have you know if they have health issues that really get smart for them to stay home and and we'll just deal with those percentages we'll do those percentages but we certainly will apply for the extra money okay well those are great questions you're all asking and they're part of the moving parts because you can hear how complicated that was and it wasn't that complicated a month ago they've thrown in all these other little things and every single day there are new things that come that were you know that we're having to factor in okay so right now our school sites are open under enhanced phase two so technology with the governor's executive orders we should have had is closed but the reality is we need our kids enrolled so it had limited people onto on campuses very limited office personnel its central personnel essentially and they're screened temperature screen to know masked cloth face coverings that we've provided for our folks plus they can have their own we check the temperatures we're telling people if you do not feel well stay home we're not pushing anybody for a hundred percent attendance we want people to take care of themselves visitors non-essential visitors do not go beyond the office these are all from our original plan okay I'm just reminding folks and we do check them temperature when they come in we've got the hand sanitizer present and we have been following the Mainers the mayor's order about masks simply because it protects everybody on our site no non club no non classroom events they've all been canceled and we've got the enhanced cleaning so that's allowed us to keep our offices open some other information for you our other employees will not be on sites until this Friday we will start issuing keys to teachers and and other employees who need to be on site starting on Friday and we've done that first of all to to reduce their exposure but the main reason is once we start letting people on sites then that means that that green list that you all are looking at relative to the cleaning and all of those things then we have to pick that all up again so right now our custodians are not having to do the deep cleaning and the disinfection every day of every classroom so we wanted to keep that as late as we could but we also wanted to give our teachers an opportunity to get into their rooms get things set up start working for our first day of school whenever that is we have on order plexiglass shields for the office counters and for any time when any of our employee employees need to do one on assessments with students and they have to be close to do that Chromebooks with their own Bank panics and hotspots are ordered Enterprise Google or enhanced for enhanced Google classroom which is our main platform and goguardian which is a software program which enhances off-site computer safety for our students so it allows us to abide by all of those laws that protect kids under the age of 13 who are not supposed to have their own email addresses and we're not supposed to be doing certain things so we wanted to be sure that we're protecting kids as much as we can when they're using our networks and doing our programs we did end up ordering two Promethean boards her Fox Creek we needed to move the person who's been teaching in the library and those are two of the oldest Promethean boards on the campus to have moved them would probably have resulted in them not working anymore it's difficult to move Prometheans and not totally to image them and I said this is silly why would we move these two and risk them not working when they work let's leave them there and let them work and let's get to you so we've already done that our plans that are in the works heighten communication with parents starting tomorrow and the reason for tomorrow is so we have some water direction from you all tonight before we start putting things out there distribution of more detailed plans to our employees we have the protocols to help protocols for them and the information that they need relative to the federal families coronavirus Leave Act for them to know under what circumstances they qualify for emergency leave and how to go about doing that with HR all current planning includes a process for continued distance learning for students with chronic health conditions or other reasons for not in attending in person for the remainder of the school year under consideration cloth face coverings for fifth to eighth graders when we return into phase 2 or phase 3 operations and and frankly I'm you know I would appreciate a little input from the board on that we can talk about that a little bit more I'm sure to have questions about we want some input on the idea of child care services for employees children it's to our benefit and our students benefit to have teachers working if they're at work where their children go and where do their children go to continue learning themselves so we have some ideas about that but you know we want some discussion on that and then a thoughtful plan for transition from phase one to either phase two or phase three when the opportunity presents itself and so that's those are still under construction if you would at this point I kind of like to have mrs.
