We set up a modified 11-month work calendar that allows those schools to have coverage in the main office there for for parents coming in. Additionally, uh this year we're also moving to a change for our custodial staff allowing we need more more time with our staff, our facilities. That need continues to grow. We want to make sure we have high quality facilities that are taken well taken care of and this is an attempt again to kind of push us in that direction. So yes, it's it's a constant uh fluid situation. we look at the work that needs to be done and try to craft these work calendars to get the work done that we need to in the district. >> Mr. Becket, on on just the point of the custodial staff calendar that we've that we've adjusted, we did that because we were having people come in during the summertime and paying them.
All right, doing plenty of down tilts. Oh, and an up smash, but no, but to no avail. Oo, I'm surprised he isn't trying to punish that. Oh, faulty air dodge. Let's see. Oh. Oh, you hate to see it. As someone who's played NES for a ton of time, I hate it when that happens. He probably could have bounced off the stage, but I don't know if it went that far. All right. All right. Well, NES can actually um NES can actually uh heal off of Luigi's fireball. So, Deacon might have to be a little strategic with the way he does it, at least when thinking of his game plan. Tries to catch Nest with the vacuum. Doesn't work. Oh, there's a PK fire and a down air and an up air, but Deacon answers with his own down special. That is awesome. That is absolutely awesome.
>> Okay. >> So a lot of the grants will not allow you to purchase vehicles. So, there's a cops grant. I believe it it will allow us to purchase vehicles, but there we have some money earmarked to replace cameras and locks in the buildings, which you think that's not going to be very much money. Well, lots are pretty expensive. >> Can be. >> Um, you you're looking at over $500,000 to do one building. So, even if we get those grants, it's going to take several years to to work through that. So, I've not seen any. There used to be a program where you could get um vehicles that were surplus. Now everybody's selling those on um auction.gov got deals. >> Um so those those aren't even out there anymore where we could say >> um the DNR has a extra Durango. Um I've not been able to find those.
And um our timeline obviously uh it'll be March and two two Februaries in there, but looks like March. Uh should be March of 26. Uh additional budget workshop and tri board meeting. Um the 10th or the 11th. I don't think it's come out which date yet. Um and then in April, we need to have our public hearing at that point. Um May meeting's early. Well, actually, we probably have to have it. >> Yeah. What's the deadline to get the numbers to them? >> Well, >> usually >> top floor, I guess it could be whatever we want, but but I think >> we typically have our we've done as late as April having the budget workshop in approval of the number. Um, we have this question every year in terms of when we're supposed to provide it to the select board. >> It's in one of the in charter or whatever, but we look at it every year.
All right. So now we made it really clear to er on the side of caution because of some of the concerns for whatever reason is that there's no more thinking just leave the building, which to me makes sense. It really does. Okay. Uh we had a we had a meeting with the town officials. We had a meeting with the fire department to discuss this. We explained the policy. we explain moving forward and everyone is and everyone is directed uh you know um accordingly. All right. Uh if anything, I was probably more transparent than I should have been by by sending something out to the parents because I know the parents here want to hear what's happening. But sometimes in in an immediate thing when we're when we're we're in a cause of concern for the safety of people, sometimes it's difficult to get things out and sometimes it's difficult to get things out until the investigations are finished.
Are we going to see any savings from extending this calendar and having those people >> I'm not sure. Thank you, President K. I'm not sure we're going to see savings, but I do believe it's it's important that we have predictability in our schedules. Uh especially on breaks in summer, those are oftentimes our deep cleaning periods and uh if if they're not available, again, it's it's a lost opportunity whenever the kids aren't on campus for us to be able to actually do some extra work. So, again, I'm I can't speak to savings. I don't believe it's going to be a savings, okay? But I do think it's going to help improve the quality of the services we're providing our kids in those facilities. >> Oh, sure. Because it'll be people that understand the job because we were just they would in the past they would hire um pretty much any classified employee that wanted the extra work during the summertime would be hired on to do the extra cleaning in the summer.
Meanwhile, over in the varsity side, Meanwhile, over in the varsity side, Scott unfortunately lost his match. And from the looks of things, he unfortunately he also unfortunately didn't take a stock off of the opponent. Yeah, kind of a shame I will say. Alrighty. Oh, Nes returning with an upbeat and he manages to get a stock off on Deacon. Does an up upbeat. does a dash attack and another dash attack trying to send his airs off of the lead to sort of interrupt Ness's recovery. Air dodge is right on stage, but since Ness's air dodge has a ton of lag, since uh Ness's air dodge has a ton of freaking lag, um Deacon was easily able to counter on top of that. And who's And who's here coming in but other than a varsity member, otherwise known as Kamura, our local foreign player. >> Woohoo! Woohoo!
I know Wayne has looked for those as well. So those programs are are not there. We could buy uh one from say Miami County Sheriff's Department that's going to have 80 to 100,000 miles on them. So, and what' you say the last two? >> We just got rid rid of three of them and they all had 120 and they were $10,000 is what they sold them for. So, >> so there's your long answer to your short question. Sorry. >> No, that's what I wanted to know. Thank you. There's about um it's about $7,165 to go new over the used to pursuit vehicle is is the money difference. So any other questions or comments? >> Is it your intention to take a motion and and make a vote? >> Yeah. We got we can go one of basically five ways. But one of four ways we can vote on one of the three or repair while we got.
>> Have we figured out if we're going to pass two budgets? That's >> in May or we're going to do one presuming. >> We have not had a conversation and I think that's I'm going to stop sharing this for now but um Tina we have not had that conversation. I think that is again part of what the tri board the next tribard meeting >> has to have a conversation about what are we going to do? What are we looking at doing here? Um can can I suggest maybe towards that end because I think that's about anybody else. I kind of feel like we have these tri board meetings. We agree we need to do something. We have a general sense of what the ask is going to be and then there a whole lot of questions that aren't answered. And it feels like on behalf of this committee, maybe it would be helpful like for us to have a lengthier agenda planning meeting that we've had the last few or that type of meeting just to come up with that the identification of the issues, >> the questions that we as a committee want answered >> at the next tribe board that we feel like need to be answered to be able to make final decisions, but also to adjust for our budget.
All right? especially if there's personnel involved, there's other people involved. There there's teachers that were in the building, too. There's there's there's a lot of things that are going on. But to think that in any way something was sent out that is contradictory on purpose, I completely take offense to that, that you just got up and you just said that. Okay? No. Every listen, if you were going to be up here and say that, then I'm going to respond to it. every time you've contacted me for everything, which was on a daily basis, we've given you almost all the information you needed, whether it was Oprah requests that you needed, you wanted documents, whatever it was. But to get up here and to say that, I I take exception to that. I have to be honest with you. So, to be extremely clear, there was nobody in danger at any time.
So, I love the fact that we're giving them that opportunity. Was there much push back from any any of the work groups that that got their uh calendars changed? There was one and again we we've worked uh with our counselors, secondary counselors. We had been working on this over a year uh in addressing this for our high school counselors. Again, we made a change move their calendars from 217 days down to 200 days. We feel like this is an efficiency that that we needed to do. Again, we prepped these uh these employees over a long period of time. They were well aware that that we're moving to this. Okay. Thank you. >> Any other questions? Do I have a motion? >> Motion to approve the work calendars for 2627 school year. >> Second. >> Lisa, I have a motion and a second. >> Shante Rothschild.
also see me on other streams. Also, Deacon finishing off with another 67 carrying on this tradition. >> That is absolutely beautiful. >> It's beautiful. >> Mhm. >> All right. So, how do you think the varsity team is going so far? >> Pretty well. >> That's good. >> Surprising that we're sending Deacon in so early. >> Yep. That is surprising. >> We have him or Jane anchoring. >> Mhm. Mhm. >> Yep. I've been an anchor before. It's a pretty pretty crazy process, I will say. >> I do agree with that. >> Anchoring is kind of stressful. >> It is. It can be stressful, but I usually like to have fun with it, and I notice that I play better when I'm in a better mood. >> Yeah. >> I usually just try not to think about it. >> So, on club, we have Tanner going in >> against this Lucina that has just been sweeping our team.
So that could be form of a motion. So Wayne or Craig, either one that you guys are saying that you want. >> I'm sorry. >> Which one are you? I mean, what do you guys need? Any of the three would suffice with what I need to do, but it's better what I have, you know. I just hate to see us put that much money in to this car now. It's not going to change the trade in. I value. We put 3,000 to fix it. It's still worth 7,000 traded. So, and it, you know, I'm out on a run and it blew the engine. Now we have a hook of metal. That engine is not made to run like I need to run sometimes. Anybody have a lean one way or the other? I I'll tell you this. We don't need a 47,000 or 42,000 Durango.
setting a better focused agenda because we seem to talk in circles a lot and it's and I'm not you know that's not pointing fingers or it's just >> especially when you have a large group it always at work or whatever you have the larger your meeting the more you need somebody to listen to to figure out >> provide me stuff I'll get it to Michael >> actually if sorry madam chair >> please >> if um everybody can think about what those questions might be them to Jim >> and then we can talk about I mean I think that probably more fair to everybody. >> Yes. >> Um and then we'll just go with that um rather than >> you and I trying to do it and we should be you know sort of having those deliberations outside of this meeting anyway. So >> yeah. >> Excellent.
The students were evacuated evacuated out of uh out of an error of caution. And the other thing too was back in the back before I got here, the reason why this policy took place was for the simple fact that if our team here, our security team, which was incident command with the SRO's, and then we also have firemen that are on staff, especially one in school 8, they could handle it themselves. They didn't want to put any other firemen in danger coming down here. There there are different things that were in place. That is all negated now. It's all a simple thing. uh we had board members at the meeting with me. We made it very clear to the administration and I think since then we've had two evacuations I think just the question. So so moving forward um that's where we're at. Um and and that's where I leave it.
>> I. >> Ben Owens. >> Hi. >> Lisa Garcia. >> Hi. >> Carolyn Lopez. >> Hi. >> Patty Coutrey. >> I. >> Thank you. >> All right. discussion and possible approval of the 2627 governing board meeting schedule. Dr. Lopeman, that's on you. >> We love Wednesday nights in MUSD. [laughter] So, um the calendar should look familiar. It's basically the same rhythm and rotation and um there's a couple of events that we're keeping an eye on that may impact the scheduling and and if necessary that will come back before the board, but this is how we would like this is um the opening proposal. Certainly a couple of those events um board members I I've talked to Dr. Lman um uh we even though we're not members of the Arizona School Board Association, we can certainly attend any of their conferences, workshops, and trainings. Um and I firmly believe that if we have the opportunity to do some professional development that you know we do we should do it.
>> I believe that's actually their captain. >> It probably is. >> Captain Lucina over here. Oh, and unfortunately >> I don't think they know how to play against my Sephas, though. >> Oh, well that's good >> because I did do I did get them down on the Sephro. >> It's unfortunate you won't get another chance to play since this is the third round and they are in a best of three format. >> Yeah, we are. >> That is an FR right there on the club team. Anyways, >> see that's the nice thing with Tanner going in against the spiking event. >> Mhm. And back on the varsity side, they sent out a Kirby in the place of the nest. And Deacon is still going. This is this is the opposing team's last player. So, we're going to see how this goes. >> He did. He did do it.
So, I think we can throw that one that one out of the the mix. John Jones car. >> John Jones car 36. >> Yeah. Okay. Yeah, it was the middle. >> Correct. So, I I think that um you know, do we want to get something new that's easier to upit? Um if if a local guy's doing it, and that's what we would have. So, John Jones does up them. It's four months out, so they're not going to upit. So, we'd have a local person. Um if that would make the upfit cheaper, that would make sense because you're going to recoup some of that uh $7,000. So, um, if you want to go cheap, then you just say we'll buy the used one. >> I personally am leaning toward for $7,000 difference toward the new. That's my thought. Especially if it's easier. I mean, the easier it out, it's just a bonus on that.
And and Jim's uh I was going to reach out to you anyway on how you articulate this because somebody can also say you've been saying the same things for the last >> as long as I've been listening to you, you've been saying this. They're they're going to say >> we've been using one times and it's worked >> right now. I know some of the reasons why it's worked right. Um but I think we should really think about how we disseminate that because the implementation of uh the opportunity act right and and and that we we got we got jumped to one year $1.2 $2 million, you know, right? So, um so these things the the er funds, right? Uh you know, the these all these things, the >> the growth uh the new growth in town, but then we intentionally tried to curb that. Well, that has implications that we're we're facing now, right?
So um there there's really nothing else to say. >> Thank you Dr. Tomco. Any other public comments at this time? I see none. I will ask the board for any comments from the board. Miss Peter. Okay. Well, >> uh, obviously the student of the month left, but that was very impressive. I don't know. I was impressed very much. Uh, thank you to the teaching staff at the high school, the principal, Mrs. Demo. You do a bangup job. I work with you guys, so I know how hard you work. Um, as far as what goes on with the heat, I'm a very I get up very early in the morning to Texas from Dr. Tomco. There's no heat in this building. We're working on it. Inline is the board knows. He sends out a mass text or emails to us letting us know what's going on, where it's going on, and if nothing's going on to let us know, uh, Mr.
