So, I'm prepared uh any of us are prepared to answer any questions you might have. >> You answered mine as we went along. So, that was [laughter] great. one would pop in my head and then be like, "Oh, nope. There it is. We got it." >> I would say with four presentations on finances, I would say we're being very transparent. So, thank you. >> It's not as much as fun as Lisa's presentation, but it is what it is. >> I think it's fun. [laughter] >> I think it's fun. >> Okay. All right. So, we will move on to um number seven, consent agenda items. Is there anything for >> So I'll make the motion for the consent to approve the consented agenda items removing >> the support staff portion of 7.06. >> Okay, I'll add that in [laughter] and u and the rest is as uh presented.
Similar to the hot water heater in your home. It's not saying that at 15 years it's going to die, but as you're starting to get to 10, 12 years old, you might say, "Hey, let's plan for replacement so we're not blindsided with an outage and out of water." So, what we'll do is we'll assess it based off of the physical condition it's in and talking to your operations team. And then we'll do an age adjusted condition. So if we rate it as caution because it's got some issues but otherwise working well but it's 12 years old, we may bump it up to that alert just to kind of increase that priority. So you guys again are planning and proactive instead of reactive. >> Just to kind of build upon that too is is like let's say for example with the HVAC the rooftop unit in the central office was replaced I think about three years ago.
Um some things that I would like to share is that they hold themselves to high standards, high values, >> uh a problem solver. One of the things I noticed about Mr. Ortega, he's very forward thinking, always having solutions. Um, for me personally, I think I I would love to see someone that um, yes, someone that understands our community, but also understands our parents and um, listens, has a gives them a voice and then also um, students at the top as well and their needs and is bilingual. And I would like to see someone that's fiscally sound. And I think for the most part that I've been here on the board, I've noticed that um we have a great, you know, cabinet member that holds us very accountable, but I mean, if it wasn't for the leadership, right, the superintendent. So that's important for me, a collaborator.
>> Second. >> Thank you. Okay. Um, so with that, we don't we're not discussing. >> Okay. Okay. Um, so then we move on to number eight. >> We need to vote. >> Just kidding. Move on. I'm going to vote first. [laughter] I'm sorry. I've had a very interesting day. So, it's just rolling into this here. Um, okay. So, uh, I'll call for a vote to approve the consent agenda items minus the 7.06, um, the employee work calendar, >> the support staff portion of it. Um, all those, sorry, I'm sorry. [gasps] All those in favor say I. I. I. I.
We've had a lot of issues with it. So so I can sit down and say okay newer unit, but yet it's costing me a lot of money. Um, just trying to fix stuff and things. So, so it could become a we could move it up as a higher priority that we want to replace it. Whereas, you know, something that's older may still be working fine and it's not time to replace it. >> Sorry to interrupt. >> No, no, that's actually a perfect surve. While he's doing that, too, I just want to stick with the system. And he's going to show you here in a minute. What makes our digital process different is let's say you're sitting at your desk at home. You can go online and you can pull up room 101. You could uh pull up the carpet. It's going to tell you the age, condition, life cycle.
Uh one of the things that I like that Mr. Ortega does is he does collaborate with different stakeholders. And not only does he collaborate, I he sets time aside to join some of the foundations. And that's something that I don't share a lot with him, but I I've I've noticed it's very noticeable. And not just to me, I I think the parents know that and the community. Someone that's flexible, and that kind of goes hand in hand that has that flexibility because this is a very demanding job. I mean, we're we're over we have a lot of employees. So, you know, I think that's very important. Someone that's very objective when they look at things, they look at them objectively. I would also like to see someone that has um that has great analytical perspective on things. So, >> those are kind of my top that I would love to see.
>> Um, any opposed? All right, that passes with 50, right? Good. Okay. Um, number eight, action items. Um, we have the 8.01 fiscal year 2026 budget revision number two. Um, do we have to make a motion? >> Turn it back over to Bonnie Betts. But you got to she's going to Are you going to give a presentation on this, correct? >> Yes, there is a presentation associated with this action item. And um, Dr. McCord and governing board. I'm going to move down with um with Miss Matin and Miss Morgan uh to provide support. Uh they're they're primarily going to be giving this presentation. I just wanted to take the opportunity to explain why I'm getting up and moving around. Dr. McCord, >> I I've I've already given up on that. [laughter] >> Just as long as you end up at the podium, we're good. You are okay.
You can pull up the lights. You'll pull up the season ceiling tile. Um whether it's administrator or the board, whoever has access is going to know every assets age, condition, life cycle. Um, in addition, if it's something you identify is going to have costs and that cost that you can and you can go on and on and on to see what what it would cost now, what it would cost in five years, 360 pictures and it's all going to be digitally on your computer. Uh, as Chris kind of alluded to, once we uh start our process, you know, the traditional method we used to do is give you a physical report, you know, a physical book. And what we found is it quickly becomes outdated because like Dr. Galvin mentioned, you do a project and then three years from now that book's kind of irrelevant, right?
>> Thank you. >> Outstanding. And if I may just add that if there are other characteristics that come to mind a week from now, tomorrow, whatever the case might be, I know you have Dr. Smith's card and my card at your dis. Please feel free to call us or text us or uh email us. >> Can I just add one thing while you're Yes, m this >> um someone that's open-minded and not afraid of change. >> You know that that's the thing that you know we we make many changes here unified school district and you know we need that person to be open-minded >> and willing to to I mean if if need be >> go with it. >> Yes. >> Yeah. Good. I did have one more uh comment and I looking back on the notes I noticed that we have the CSEA executive board but I don't see any management association or education association will they on the list >> generally those are taken care of with um district reps all of your directors your coordinators your confidential staff typically the district office is completely covered in that respect >> okay just making sure we don't forget the Thank you.
Good. Not sure it's worth all that anticipation, but it is to us, I guess. Dr. McCord, governing board members. Um, I am Jackie Mattton, and I'm here with Amber Morgan, our budget manager, to present to you the revised budget number two for FY2026. So we'll talk a little bit about ADM and weighted student count and how that's changed for this budget revision. We'll talk about M and unrestricted capital budget capacities. A little bit about CATED funding and then finally average teacher salary. So the ADM and weighted student count, you can see here our average daily membership or ADM. Uh when we adopted in 2026, we anticipated a 1300 student loss. We actually only lost 777. So um we've resulted which resulted in a um student gain in ADM and then the weighted student count increased um by 732 students which really drives our budget capacity.
And it gets put on a shelf and it gets forgotten. So, what we've done is we put everything into an online platform called My Side IQ. Um, and the data you're going to see here is actually based off of a school we did in Indiana. We did change the name and stuff to protect their data. It's actually based off the movie Hoosiers if if you couldn't tell. Um, so I'm going to kind of give you an example of again our process. If you have questions, please interrupt. It's a lot of information. Um, I mean, I could spend two hours alone exploring this. Um, but want to show you how powerful this is and kind of how this sets us apart. So, we'll load in your floor plans here. And we use this as we're surveying it. We load it directly into the tool. And you can see if you go to the spaces here, we name them all.
>> And they need to love the Dodgers. Okay. >> No Angel fans. >> He likes angels. >> Excellent. >> Well, we'd like to switch gears and we'll do the same order if you don't mind. Uh, Madame President, what comes to mind when you think of the strengths of the district? Things that are working well, particular projects, programs, AVID, dual language immersion, fine and performing arts, whatever the case might be. But what are you most proud of? What comes out as a strength in the district, certainly your teachers, your staff, and so on. Mrs. Pena, we'll start with you. >> And, um, you mentioned you mentioned some of them, but I, you know, back to Measure K, you know, we had Measure K 2014, and I'm very proud that I was on the board when measure K, you know, we made those decisions and they were hard decisions, but you know, uh the majority of the projects have being um done >> and that's what we promised the community and that's really important to me.
Can I add something? >> Of course you can. [laughter] >> The only thing I wanted to add regarding that is I wanted everyone to understand that when we built the budget, we look at our cohort movement. So that means that kindergarteners going into first grade, first grade going into second, and adding up all those changes, that's what resulted in that um projected 1,300 student loss. But based upon the work of our marketing team, based upon the work of our of our schools in attracting really focused on kindergarten enrollment, um, and also I personally believe based upon our academic achievement results, we're attracting those kids back to Gilbert public schools. So we're expected automatically to lose 1300, but we attracted back 523 students, which I think is a big celebration associated with our budget. Just wanted to share that. So, here's our M budget capacity. Our revenue control limit increased um from adopted by $4.83 million as a result of that weighted student count increase.
And if I'm just going to pick the boiler room because it has a lot of pieces of equipment, we list every piece of equipment you have in there. And if you click on it, you can see pictures that are associated with it, what whatever you want to call the boiler, usually, you know, boiler one, boiler two, so on and so forth. The year it was installed, model number, serial number, how we grade it as a condition, u based off of our inspection, how it's age adjusted condition is, um, and then any notes. And that's the notes option. Um, I like to use a lot because it's an open field. So, a lot of times we'll put in warranty information or as Dr. G mentioned, if you have a troubling piece of equipment, we can say, "Hey, we spent x amount of dollars the past three summers fixing this." So, you can really identify where your inefficiencies are.
um knowing that that they're not saying we lied that we were going to do this or we're going to do that because our superintendent has made sure that goes back and look at we had another superintendent when we went into Mr. K and then Mr. Ortega came in, but he continued. >> Yeah. >> You know, and um I'm very proud of that. And also, of course, yes, our dual immersion program, our Mandarin program just started last year, and who said we couldn't do that, right? And it's working out really well. And I went to the Chinese New Year program at Adultton. And those kids, I mean, I mean, now first graders speaking Mandarin. Imagine speaking Mandarin. >> Uh um Spanish and English. I'm very proud to be a board member knowing that who said it couldn't be done because we we had some situation going on but you know we wanted to try it.
Uh when we adopted and revised, we did transfer $3 million to M. We've removed that transfer to maximize um interest that we can actually spend in capital. We'll go over that a little bit more in the capital slide. The 15% override, slight change there based on prior year final recalculation. The budget balance carry forward increase 2.75 million from our final spend from the FY2025 AFR. The tuition in amount we adopted um it was a it was a swag. Um we have adjusted that now slightly based on uh the revenue that we can anticipate for the current year. And then Prop 123 and the free and reduced price lunch add-on, the state advised uh districts to enter zero when they adopted and proposed. So that's why there's a $2.9 million increase from um adopted to revised number two. We have those final numbers now, resulting in a $7.48 million increase with an animation flyin, a 4.44 44 million budget increase in revision two over revision one which is uh what was reflected on the monthly report.
On top of that, if you go to like a classroom, we again sign all the assets with the lighting, roofing, walls, and it's a lot of the similar things. You can tell, you know, if you want to do a refresh of classrooms, you know, every couple years, let's say, let's pick two or three classrooms per building, you can see which classrooms are lagging behind and need, you know, a little bit of a refresh, whether that's flooring, ceiling, so on and so forth. And a good way to do that if you zoom out is how we do this is we create these maps which is particularly helpful for the operations team because it gives them again a zoomed out view of what what area. This is a HBAC map. Um so it's showing which rooms and areas are served by which pieces of equipment. We make these same maps for flooring ceiling.
We moved forward and we did it. So so I'm very proud of that and also I am proud with um of course our staff and and our um classified certificate employees and parents that we all work very well together and we're all very transparent and that um you know we're people too. I mean, it's not like, you know, we're here and they're there and I like that that the relationship that we have >> um with the superintendent and and the board and and our community and our staff members. >> I think that's a very strong strength that we do have. Transparency is number one. And that's how we earned our trust. You have to earn your trust. Correct. >> You don't just get it. So I feel that we earned our trust by doing just the things that I just mentioned >> and the bond referendum is proof of that.
>> And I have to say that is quite an accomplishment that we have this increase because I'm used to looking at numbers where we've got to figure out how to make that cut to make the balance but the the budget balance. So, thank you for the hard work and I appreciate how your conservative estimates have helped to build in that um reserve. >> Any other questions before we move on? >> Okay, on to the uh revised unrestricted capital budget capacity. So, the um DAA or district's assistance district additional assistance formula didn't change. Again, that's based on prior year student count. So that did not change. The second line there, we did took away that transfer. So that resulted in an increase of $3 million in unrestricted capital so that we can maximize interest. The one-time state aid, a slight change there of $50,000 uh based on updated numbers from the state.
So again you can see at a high level quick glance where do we need to update our flooring? Where do we need to update our ceiling? Um, and HBAC masks can help you pinpoint problems if you're getting common complaints with certain areas. I know that was kind of quick. I want to get a lot of information in there.
