>> Hi, I'm Jaden. I'm also a senior and I'm also one of the color guard captains. >> I'm a sophomore and I'm one of the saxophone section leaders. >> Hi, I'm Aaron. I'm a senior and I'm also one of the saxophone section leaders. >> Hi, I'm Samson. I'm also a senior and I was the meophone section leader. >> Yeah. um just appreciate all the support. I just want to uh give a shout out to all our students. They've done such a great job um picking up the ball every single year and and uh running with it. Um this is their fifth out of the fifth state championship in the last six years. So that's like kind of a dynasty that they've created and when we graduate a bunch of seniors, the next next group picks up the ball and continues. So we're just really proud of the leadership especially for continuing that legacy at Campo.
So let's just pay for what they need. If we need construction management outside of what we do, then yeah, let's get targeted construction management for that piece, not the whole thing. Um so and if we just need engineering and we don't need project management, we don't need you know the architectural designs and all then we just target to just the engineer. So now you we've eliminate layers of cost. The other thing that we do inside of when we're doing a project like we're doing is is we we look at it when you buy when you put a bid out, you know, a traditional bid spec job. You know, you get a G GC, we'll take a look at the bid, then they'll get to their contractors and then their contractors will get their subs and see every level you have markup. We do it differently.
Ron Houston, junior high golf, Southwood High School. And Brad Wright, junior high golf, Southwood High School. That's it. Motion, a second to approve HR. >> So moved. >> Got a motion, a second to approve our HR report. All in favor say I.
So that's what kind of drives those numbers. So it's a difference of um what they can afford versus uh based on population for the non-found nation. So that's how this come up. So the one thing um we would like is to have a vote on the committee to vote on the proposed revenue page uh which uh are driven by uh for the most part the department of education uh requirements um and there is some flexibility and non-foundation but uh that's what kind of drives our revenue. uh if committee can vote on that. Um and uh we won't vote on the other budget things. We'll go we'll go through some more of the budget items, but um this is if you're uh would be comfortable. If not, if you're not ready to vote on this tonight, we'd have to wait till the March one. And our cities and towns wouldn't get their assessments till late, which uh doesn't usually make them too happy because it makes it harder for them to plan their their budget for upcoming year.
>> Any discussion? Seeing none, colleagues, please place your vote. I think we're going to take a hand vote. Uh, board vice president Rodriguez Pñena. >> Yes. >> Board member Arianes. >> Yes. >> Board member Ramos. >> Yes. >> And I am a yes. So, the motion passes. Moving on to item 3.1, public comment on agenda or non-aggenda or close session items. Hope do we have any blue cards? We have one blue card. Well, Pier Pearson. >> Oh, okay. I was like I'm a person. Thank you for clearing that up. >> Tell me when I can go. >> Go ahead. >> Go. Okay.
Do you remember um last year when they were in the the scene shop and they were watching Tik Tok and we could hear it in the auditorium? That was me. That was me. It was me and Cam. We were watching Tik Toks and Cam Cam's mic was on >> and that was really fun >> during tech week. >> Uh yeah. Yeah. And one time Cam's phone rang on stage during tech week. >> Yep. Yeah. So yeah, >> the mishaps in the moment are very like but then they're they're funny after. >> Yeah. >> Um and uh speaking of the uh mishaps, I guess uh the teacher who has to teach you and uh deal with the mishaps. Um this is his last year. Do you have >> um three three words to describe Mr. Roadmer? >> Um patient. um inspiring and I think on the third one so car you go ahead.
>> Um I I I was kind of thinking back about some of this. There was one opportunity when uh my wife and I got to be in a show together and our characters were bantering back and forth and it was just it was fun. We we hadn't really had a chance to do theater together before. Um I had seen her in shows but I was had a career so I wasn't involved with the production so and then she watched me direct shows. So that was a chance when we got to work together on on that. Um, there was times when uh I had students um so close-knit that when the show ends, I mean, it's just it's it's sad. It's uh they want to bond. They're like, "We can't let this end." And it's it's kind of bittersweet when that happens. Um it's great because of the bonds that have been made.
One more hand. If you guys would take time and shake hands with the board and take a picture, you guys stay right there. We'll put this in the middle somewhere. >> Come on in and fill in. Thank goodness I'm taller than the trophy. >> Congratulations. [applause] And if from Mosquite High School, could I have director Steve Canana? >> There you are. >> Hi. How are you, sir? >> Good. Thank you for being here tonight. >> Thank you. >> Bring up your your crew. Here's some kiddos. Here they are. Well, let me tell you, or everybody else, you guys already know. Um, Mosqu High School first place finish in the Amba Class A state finals. Again, state champions. They are. Congratulate them. [applause] And as I uh reiterate what I said a couple minutes ago, these things don't just happen. It takes hard work. It takes a lot of practice, a lot of coordination, and you got to smile out there in the 110° heat and you're marching up and down the field.
We're able to go through like VCS is one of our companies, HVAC equipment. We can go through there just so there's just a one one market. There's not three. Then we contract, we look at if a school district has a mechanical contractor that they like that or electricians they like or what we'll work directly with them for the installation, but we'll keep the equipment separate. So now you're not paying additional markups. And I think that's why we're getting cost uh we're getting projects done uh coming in and and I think in your folder you probably have a letter Kevin Yansy superintendent of uh Veteran North he really loves kind of what we're doing it's different I I will tell you it's different but we're able to save a lot of money to get to that point and the reason we're here is we have you know we're talking about a study we do a study it's it's it's pretty uh it's intense It's it's it'll give you all the information you need to be able to make decisions and will help you through that process make make the decisions.
>> Any opposed? Motion passes. Reports. Hartland. Anything new there, Matt? >> A couple things. U if you like Wix pies. >> Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Cosmetologies cosmetology is having a fundraiser. So if you know some kids in that might look for that. Um CDL class it will start March 2nd and they have 12 12 students in it and one paying on their own because they had enough funds for 12. They did a selection and one was willing to pay extra to be into that class. Um that's a student student. Yeah. Um under donations, Mr. Monty Martin gave some machinery equipment, machining equipment. His uh brother passed away and he brought a bunch of tools in there to help machining. Uh they didn't put a value on that. Jason Lucas donated some poly material for classes and Rod Brewaker uh office supplies value of $3,000 and under building trades.
>> And this is basically just to inform them. >> Yes, just to inform them. You know, they're not voting on anything, but it gives them a sense [clears throat] of what the costs are to their community for the students to come here. Great. >> Can we get a motion on that?
Um, good evening board members, esteemed colleagues. We are here tonight because we are heavily invested in this process. We have enjoyed five years um under our current superintendent with collaboration, with transparency. Uh have things always been perfect? No. But we've always worked together to come to a common understanding that was best for all stakeholders, our students, our families, our employees, our administrators, our community. And we hope that as you're looking to this process, this timeline, uh the values that we have here in ISUSA, the attributes that we would like to see in our new superintendent that you will look for those same things that are so value to valuable to us now. And again, collaboration, input, transparency, um the skill of listening and understanding, valuing all the stakeholders and making sure that it is an inclusive process for everyone in this district, our entire ISUsa community.
>> I'd say like I definitely would say inspiring. That's a big one. I'd say fun. He's a very fun person. And supportive. I'm stealing supportive. Um, uh, what's one just one thing you'd uh have to think of for throughout, uh, your four years and year three years so far? >> Um, I'd say definitely just being patient with the whole cast because I know that we all get so annoying, especially tech week, we're all like actually a mess. Mhm. >> So, I think just like sticking with us and like just not letting us get to the point of like where we all hate each other cuz I feel like the only thing keeping us like not from just going insane is Road Armor just being like, "Hey guys, it's we'll still have fun. Like, it's going to be a great show." So, um I'd say my biggest thank you to Mr.
um knowing that you guys have that the cast has created something, but uh a little bit of sadness uh when it's time to to depart and we don't have practices anymore. So, >> yeah. Um well, I really appreciate your time and I uh I am excited for my first performance here in Clear Water uh this weekend and I hope you're excited, but you know, it's going to be a little bit of a bittersweet moment like you said. Um but um yeah, thank you for coming on and uh thank you for all the energy and all the teaching and everything you've put into these kids the many years you've been doing it um here at Clear Water and thank you for everything you've given to Clear Water. Um and uh like you said, we're going to continue to see you and continue to be part of the community.
You're playing at halftime. You're doing all kinds of different things. And to be rewarded with all this for your hard work is a special thing. So, uh, would you like to have your students introduce themselves? >> Sure. thing. >> Uh, my name is Erica Caddyy. I'm a sophomore and I'm a woodwin section leader. >> My name is Kylie Sabbat and I'm also a woodwin sop or sorry, woodwin section leader. >> I'm Ashley Aguilar and I'm the drum major and I'm a senior. >> I'm Kira Brown. I'm a senior and I'm the guard captain. >> I'm Jasine Martinez. I'm a sophomore and I'm here representing PIT. >> I'm Logan Fischer. I'm here representing drum line. Not as easy as it [laughter] looks, is it? >> Representing drum line. >> Uh, I'm a junior and I am the equipment manager. >> Steve, would you like to say a few words about your kids?
And the second thing away especially because I think your utilities are Duke. Is that correct, Michael? If I looked at your Duke utilities, we're still seeing opportunities to save a lot of money for the utility side and not cost a lot to do projects or adding add those into projects. So, we're going to talk about that. So to get started, um, I gave you kind of the overview, the 30 foot or the 5,000 foot overview in a very short period of time. Uh, Grant's going to walk you through the study. Grant is a project. He's my uh partner in crime. Uh, he's his his uh expertise, I'll let him explain that a little bit, is in is in construction management, I think civil engineer. Yep. >> By trade, but management project. Nobody's better at attention to detail and driving cost down. in a respectful way.
Mr. Hooer had his resignation in. He pulled his resation so he will continue. Should a building Yeah, it's huge. Yes, it is huge. Um and then the big elephant in the room, we approved the >> the hope is that the advisory committee is used heavily. >> Okay. >> How many? There were several on that committee. I believe >> three major ones. >> Three major. >> So We get thrown in the deep end. Let's see what happens. >> And that's basically it. All right. >> Report. Okay. Um well, just wanted to start off with just a a project update. Have a new video uh in relation to uh the projects that are happening at Northfield and Metro North. Uh so we'll go ahead and watch that. Heat. Heat. N. Nice. Thank you, Jesus. got a few things that have been uh Scott mentioned that the floor has been poured now at this point and so that was captured in the video.
Does anybody have any questions for the superintendent first? >> Yeah, just like we'll just pick the door the 6,963,000. Is that both the uh like the 5,617 and the 2,1 143? Is that >> you on the first page? >> Yeah, on the first page >> uh total estimated. Yes, that's all of nonfoundational expenses. Everything that you see here. So, it's the um minimum contribution at the very top when you're doing this um what was one 1743 plus the um 82,000. Oh, this is the total. So, thuin would be uh across the board. So, for member community assessments, 801,182. >> Mhm. >> Um and then if you look up above the other assessment is the chapter 74. >> Okay. >> Which is 5,617. So, that's foundation and the lower one is nonfoundation. >> Okay. So that's their total. >> Yeah. You add those two together and that's what gives you your total for the year.
And so, as we all are here tonight, um trying to listen and and hopefully I guess we don't engage because it's a school board meeting. I understand, but we also would like to respectfully request that we're included in the process that we are one of the stakeholders um of of whom you are going to solicit input because we feel that as teachers and I'm sorry you don't know me I'm the president of the teachers union um as teachers we play a vital role uh in the education of the students and we want to make sure that um our voices are heard as well. So, thank you. >> Thank you, Meg. Leica, do we have any hands raised on Zoom? >> We have no hands raised on Zoom. >> No hands raised on Zoom. Moving on to item 4.1, discussion of superintendent search process. Mr. Ortega, I turn it over to you.
