This is what the public wanted. And so in theory, when the implementation happens, none of it is a surprise to the public because we spent multiple years in the comprehensive plan process. But the implementation committee is going to now be like, okay, the public wanted it. Here's what everyone needs to do. But then if the public changes its mind and doesn't vote for it at a town meeting, we're not going to be able to force that. Well, I think that even I think there's even a note up there which strategies are complete in progress, not feasible >> or when alternatives are needed. So that that's even there, right? It can change, right? It's flexible. It's supposed to be a working document. >> So yeah, I don't I don't have a I don't have a I don't have a better proposal for choosing the committee. >> I think the way she drafts it is pretty reasonable.
You're only going to see two years of data for them. When we come up here next year we'll have three-year trend data for the subgroups as well. There's also a couple of questions where you're only going to see one year of data because this is this was the first year that we asked that question. Next year we'll have two. Follow we'll have three. So as you see there for the most part with this question for when students answer this question I have at least one adult in the school that I can go go to help for. It's it's it remained somewhat stagnant for the last three years for all all all of our students. When you look at our English learners, however, I'm sorry, when you look at our subgroups, however, you notice that there's a little bit of a discrepancy with our um with our students.
I still brought those other uh those regulation things that I told you that have to do with the rift policies because we may need we may need to use them and and we we'll make revisions as we need to in those and I'll bring them back to you. But um I couldn't wait on that one. These I should have waited. I'm going to go look at those more carefully. Please. Yeah. Item 5.2 revised policy GCCG professional support staff voluntary transfer of acred paid time off. I I assume that this was another Yeah. Uh the big change here is changing from 30 days a continuous uh 30 days to uh and taking out the word continuous because we they reminded me that we might have somebody who unfortunately has to do say chemo treatments and it's not 30 consecutive days but it might be over the course of the year and then we also changed it from 30 to 20.
They can do that. It accepts um Apple Pay, Google Pay, Credit Card, debit card, all the modern capabilities that we do not have right now with any of our uh pay modules. That is your business manager report. >> Thank you, Mr. Nicodemus. Uh, moving on to superintendent report, Dr. Riker. >> All right. Well, if you haven't had a chance to see the Oracle, it's another amazing monthly um brag session on Crawford'sville Community Schools. U congratulations to David Pierce, who is now our all-time winningest boys basketball coach. Um, surpassing Paul Curtis, who was from 1970 to 1982. Um so in this modern era it is great to have a coach that has come has developed the program and has stayed. So grateful for him. Um dance team two national championships um the the hiphop and game day. So there we go. I do love the game day performance.
Um like I said, the only thing that was a little confusing to me was the very bottom sentence. um where they would select a chair, vice chair and set the initial calendar based on the recommendations of the comprehensive plan. I just don't remember what that is like in the comprehensive plan itself. >> So my only suggestion to Jasmine would be for this joint meeting. I think we should bring the comprehensive plan with us and look at what that is because I don't remember those recommendations >> and we may want to like air that out and make sure we know what we're agreeing to. >> Yeah. >> Because I don't remember that schedule being in there at all. Yeah, I don't think we I don't think we need to vote on anything like that tonight because the vote is in a bigger group and they may the select board may have some other ideas that we might >> think oh that that's a good idea.
I'm looking at the wrong slide here. Give me a second. Yeah. So with our foster youth. Okay. So our foster youth in terms of the um strongly agree and somewhat agree you have about a 15% drop. Okay. So then that would point us in a particular direction, right, to want to dig a little bit deeper, right? That's where we start to think about, okay, when this gets put out back back out to our sites in terms of site data, this is again district data. At some point we're going to have site data to get back to our sites. And if this is the case at their site, this is where they can now dig a little bit deeper. They can think about the street data component. You know, let's let's start to call some of these kids out. Let's start to have community some community voice circles, um some empathy interviews, and let's let's get some more information on this and figure out what we can do better.
Um so uh uh those those were the changes in that one. Okay. Thank you. New business 6.1 fiscal year 26 budget revision number two. And this one is good news because those were there were those three amounts of money that I referenced a few minutes ago. um all in the hundred thou well two in the $100,000 range and one in the $48,000 range. Um uh which which you know those are kind of healthy for us to have midy year. Uh and so uh this is the revised budget uh putting those dollars in. So an increase. Okay. So I recommend that you uh approve the uh revised budget.
I think that's wonderful. Girls swimming sectional champions. Boys swimming won the MAC championship. hopefully will bring home the sectional this weekend. Boys basketball, Sugar Creek and County Champions, Dynamic Expressions, who we saw some of them um was first runner up and then also best choreography at the Southmont Show Choir Invitational, CHS band winning some gold and had three ensembles and Ian Hurt headed to state on February 28th. And there's other great things in the Oracle. So, please check that out. um in the community world. Um we had the opportunity to be um interviewed on the IAPSS leading with excellence podcast. So if you need help going to sleep to a monotone voice, there you go. I'm on there for you. Um so just great to get to talk about our community and um Crawford'sville Community Schools in educational leadership working our middle of the year meetings.
I want to change it from this. >> Well, we can informally see if we agree on it informally. >> I wonder if there should be a salooning board. >> There wasn't for the comprehensive plan. Yeah, but this implementation it's like somebody who needs to have that perspective. Um it's great there's a planning board select board but I think if >> jurisdiction >> a lot of the zoning the comprehensive plans was it was such a broad stroke. um when you come into implementation I think you need I I would think you need that strength of a zoning board member being part of this group but I mean their jurisdiction in my opinion is very narrow. They do specific types of zoning that I don't recall anything in the comprehensive plan touching on their zoning jurisdiction at all. All of their zoning stuff in the comprehensive plan was purely planning board zoning.
So, this is where you start to, you know, also think about in terms of what what might that um reimagine and and um moving phase look like. The next the next question is I am cared for and treated with kindness and again you see some of the trend data you see for the most part it's remained somewhat stagnant for the last three years. Um when you go a little bit and dig a little bit deeper with our subgroups you start to see um with our English learners and our students with disabilities there's a little bit of a drop there um from about 8 to 10%. So again it it starts to point us in a certain direction where we want to go and dig a little bit deeper. Okay. Not to say that for the other groups, we're not going to do any work. It's just something that might be a little more glaring and and pointing us in a particular direction to dig deeper, ask additional questions, look for additional data, and take some next steps.
Any questions or discussion? Then I need a motion to approve the revised budget. Madam President, I make a motion we refute uh we approve the fiscal year 26 budget revision number two as presented. I second it. All those in favor? I Melinda Subraki. I Fred Rushton. I Charlene Diaz. I Barb Zarziki. Okay. 7.1 6.2 6.2 6.2 excuse me I is right there it is and I just 7.1 it 6.2 uh convenient to executive session to discuss a personnel matter pursuant to ARS 38431.03A1 03A1 discussion or consideration of employment, assignment, appointment, promotion, demotion, dismissal, salaries, disciplining or resign, resignation of a public officer, appointee or employee of any public body except that with the exception of the solitary salary discussions, an officer, appointee or employee may demand that the discussion or consideration occur in public meeting. Um, I need a motion to move to executive session.
So met with all the admin staff here at central office kind of check in how everybody's doing and starting our planning moving forward. Um always grateful for my team. Um right now Andrew is doing an amazing job of trying to get everything lined up so that um any of the crazy ideas that Brent and I come up with we he can tell us yes or no if we can afford that as we're trying to plan for next year. Um, Andrew, when we have our meeting in March, we'll be able to present some of the budgets to you and I think a way that will be the best you've ever seen. So, there you go. Met with met with all the building principles again, just kind of check in, you know, what's going well. Um, where do we need to grow? And, you know, just we have excellent principles.
None of it was the jurisdiction of the zoning board. Is it correct me if I'm wrong, Jasmine? The zoning board's jurisdiction on zoning is really quite limited to 40bs and >> variances and very specific kind. >> I don't think any of that was in there. And what would happen is if I'm wrong and there's like one zoning thing that has to do with them, the implementation committee would involve them. >> Do you know what I mean? As a partner, they would have to partner with them. I would say that um the zoning board of appeals is already short I believe two members. >> Yes. And we have a third that's >> and having trouble Yeah. filling them. So, but if a zoning board of appeals who have been who have Yeah. who have been extremely busy over the past year and will continue to be busy.
Okay. The next question that we have on here as an example is, I care about other students at my school. Again, um the trend data shows that it's been pretty stagnant for the last three years. a little bit of improvement, maybe a little bit of a decrease here and there, but when you look at our subgroups, it's once again our foster youth where you see um a glaring discrepancy uh between our foster youth and all students. It's about a 20% uh drop in terms of um students who strongly agree or somewhat agree that they care about other students at their school. So again, things to to look for um and a direction to be pointed in when you're uh thinking about what what are you going to do with this data and how are you going to respond to it. Okay, here's a question that we added to this year.
I make a motion we move to executive session. I'll second that motion. All those in favor? I, Melinda Sowski. I, Fred Rushton. I, Charlene Diaz. Hi, Barbarziki. Okay, we are in executive session. Mhm. Heat. Heat. Heat. N. Heat. Heat. Hey, hey, hey. Mhm. Heat. Heat. Heat. I love you. Hey, hey, hey. Heat. Heat. Number one. Heat. Heat. to reconvene into um I'll make a motion that we reconvene in public session. I'll second the motion. All those in favor? I Melinda Subrasi. I Fred Rushton. I Charlene Diaz. I Barb Zarziki. I'd like to make a motion that we accept uh the with regrets the uh resignation of Jennifer Hess. I second it. All those in favor? I Melinda Saski. I Fred Rushton. I Charlene Diaz. I Barb Zarziki. Will you move it up, please? Who seconded the motion? I did. Thank you. That's okay. Sorry. That's okay to ask because sometimes we don't remember whose seconds.
Um, they're doing great things coming along. I've also sent out Google form that I've done for three years. Kathy Steel used to have this purple sheet that went out where you would mark what your preferences are for the next year. So, it's a purple Google form. Um, so it gets some gives them the opportunity to a let us know if they're coming back next year, b if they want to change assignments, um, and then allow them to provide any feedback that they want to give at building level or on their superintendent. So, um, going very well there. Uh, those are due tomorrow at noon. So, we'll have those in. Um, met with the student leadership team. So, this was the first time I had done this one. Um, so yeah, Matteo was in the that we met tonight was in one of the groups. So, I asked them for three positives and one area for improvement.
>> But if they put in an application that would probably be viewed very >> um very favorably if if one of them >> finds time in their schedule. I mean, this is a multi-year process that >> doesn't touch their jurisdiction. And if it does, it's going to be so narrow that they will get involved anyway. >> We'll find out more as this comes into fruition. >> That's right. All right. So, are we good on that? >> Yes.
So, um in in terms of why why was it not a question in previous years, um can't answer that. My feeling is that maybe we felt that it was being asked in other ways and this year and when we we review our alcap survey every year and this year the when we were reviewing our alcap survey we felt like we just need to ask this question directly, right? because it is insinuated in other questions. However, let's just ask this question directly. So, the question is, I feel safe at my school. Okay? So, you're only going to see this year's um results. Next year, you'll see two-year trend data and then the following year, you'll see the three-year trend data. Okay? And when when this question was asked um the 17,000 students that answered it in all category, about 86% of them felt that they strongly agree or agree that they feel safe at their school.
Yeah. What do you mean? We don't remember who who made the first either. 8.3 two 8.3 8.3 M I need a motion to convene into executive session. Oh, you got to read that first, don't you? Okay. Executive session to discuss a personal ma matter pursuant to ARS 38431.03A1 03A1 discussion or consideration of employment assignment appointment promotion to motion dismissal salaries um dis disciplining or resignation of a public officer appointee or employee of any public body except that with the exception of salary discussions an officer appointee or employee may demand that the discussion or consideration occur in public meeting to move I need a motion Yes, I make a motion that we can be re or convene into executive session. I'll second the motion. All those in favor? I Melinda Saski. I Fred Rushton. I Charlene. I represent Ziki. We get to walk down the stairs again.
So I think that an important thing is is that both Hose and Nicholson students talked about their reading program. So I don't believe they were set up to do it either. So the Hose kids talked about wanting to be scientists and they love science and um Mr. [clears throat] Welchure let me know that that was what was going on in their CKLA unit. Um so that's the new our language arts program. Um and so that was great. And at Nicholson, they talked about the Vikings. Now, what I also think is important, right, is really it was the boys talking about how they want more of these books. Um, so I think great selection. Um, Monty, you were in on that selection committee. So, see, there you go. The language arts program. So, Britney and her team, everybody, I it is good. I think everybody was really nervous that this program was going to be too hard and I'm sure there's some adjustment to it, but just the engagement is outstanding.
