Speaking of adapting, look at that. Things are just working out for EMTT over here. Oh, unfortunately. Unfortunately, he had to unfortunately he miss dropped and he used up his eyepiece. He's got to he's got to start getting down to that uh getting down to the uh to the garbage down there, which in the tetrio community is referred to as downstacking, which I am actually terrible at. >> Luckily, EMTT has opened up that pocket. He needs a line piece. There it is through >> and and does and and sends the J piece down as well to follow it for a nice combo. Yep. >> The boss not to be outdone. He has put EMTT in a rough situation once again with more garbage scent. But here we go. EMTT >> again the quad. Oh my gosh. And oh my gosh, look at all these lines. And he took them down.
I mean, I believe more in a one-year continuing contract. I mean, so or at least two years. And to me, I think one year just simply because we don't know what the future's going to hold and uh we have in the past opened it up every year to give everybody everybody a chance to do the hay bit. So um if you knew you were not going to do anything with that land, I could see a three to fiveyear agreement, but because of the uncertainty, I think you just want to do one and then next year at this time, depending on what you have decided, you may do a two or three or four or five year agreement. So it could be multi-year. It's something to consider. Now, in the farming perspective of it, if you go and spray or go fertilize it, you can't carry it all.
But um but can we can we talk about maybe sharing some of these service uh these these offices? We have two large uh rooms. We have a meeting room and we have a conference room. I don't I can't envision how often those two rooms are going to be used every single day by all 19 officers. I believe uh chief you said that last time you had like 19 officers. So I think that there is some opportunity here to take a look at this plan. And I think you did a great job with the plan, by the way. I really do. Um, but I think that we can take a look at it and see is is there a possibility that we can whittle this down some? Maybe instead of having 9,000 fa square feet, maybe we go 7,000 square feet or something like that. Um, and my cost, I know the gentleman here said $1,000.
The revenue control limit then goes up from 17 even. Well, see, I had to stop there. Let me stop. All we have is number six. We have a new number six because we don't know how much we're going to bring in from capital next year, we don't know how much we're going to carry over from M& but line number six, instead of having 15,497, we jump to 15,807. So that in and of itself brings in another 309,000. Now after talking with Superintendent Daniels and assistant superintendent Wolf, that's ballpark ballpark for the cost of raises for next year. Ballpark. That will like feasibly cover quite a bit of those. So if we don't lose any students, we just stand on our hands and we bring in the same amount of people and we get that extra 2% brings us another 309,000. That's helpful. That will cover our cost of raises, especially with cost of living, so to speak, all of our expenses going down.
So, as long as they agree to those and we see them as a good fit, they would have that, they would be um a candidate for it. >> I I think my question was more of when we talk about open enrollment versus if they're an a Washington township student. >> Yes, they would receive it. We would not turn down an Avon student. >> Okay. >> If they are a good I guess if they're a good fit. >> Yes. With numbers. Okay. >> Yes. I I have a handful of questions. I'll I'll spread them out. So, I don't mean to monopolize the conversation. First of all, I want to make sure that I understand the grade levels because there seems to be conversation about middle school and then a focus on high school. Right now, you provided us that there are about 55 updated um Avon students who are virtual students in grades 6 through 12.
It's coming to a screeching halt here pretty soon. Um, but they've done a fantastic job and we'll let them share what they've done this year. >> All right. So, everything we're going to talk about has kind of been is like a good reflection of all of our student body and is a good reflection of our administrators like Mr. Long, Mr. Coffee, and Mr. Dale. They've been good support systems for us to achieve everything we've talked about. So, with that, we have what we hope to be a step in the right direction for the future of our student body and just our school. touched it. >> Yeah. Thank you. >> Okay. So, first we're going to start off with our school spirit. And this is just a little like peak of everything that we've like gone through this year with our school spirit and the amount of participation we've had.
Uh and Julie Shearer, she used to work for the corporation, is our trusted administrator and she does an excellent job. Um we are incredibly fortunate to have Julie as a member of our team and we have been working with LHD benefit adviserss for over 11 years. Uh Ben Fuelorth is our primary adviser. He's a partner with LHD and they are highly respected in Indiana uh for their work with um benefit plans. So you want to go ahead? So um last year when I was here at this time we were for lack of a better term in a kind of a state of turmoil. We were experiencing a lot of high claims. Um our reserve accounts were just kind of plummeting. We were getting hammered. Um and we had to make some kind of dramatic shifts. Um John Trout was uh incredibly helpful in that. he had some good ideas on his end um at central office about how to kind of keep us more stable from literally week to week.
And so um they've been working really hard on those. It's it's a good data measurement. Another thing that's really kind of neat is that our PECAP program is trying to start their own enterprise calling PCAP Customs. And so they soft launched this by having each young scholar reach out to someone within the district and basically pitch like what would you like me to create for you based on the 3D printer or the glow forge which is like a laser engraver. And so they are starting to have industry partners come in this week just to teach them about how to create a business plan like what does this actually look like? Um and so the the chapter ones are very excited about that. Our chapter 2s are actually working on a work-based learning project um with cell the center for excellence in leadership and learning which is where our grant is through and they are coming up with an LHS like hype video about just the high school and also the early college program and the winner of that will be um they will launch it at the early college summit that is this June.
Adjust your hair EMTT and adjust your trophy cuz you are getting one. >> Very nice. Look at that. Adjust adjust yourself your shelf because you're going to be getting a trophy on it. Ah, there you go. All right, starting off. Both of these players don't really seem to have that many like Tetrio like specific Tetrio openers. They just seem to keep their stacks flat, which keep in mind is a really good um which is a really good strategy to use, keeping your stacks relatively flat, you know, and especially helps with the down stacking I mentioned earlier since you don't have to get through that much and have very specific pieces to get to the garbage down there. >> Absolutely. All righty. Just sending as much as many um as many as many pieces of garbage their way. And as you could tell, as you could tell, Gray the boss is uh misplacing a few.
I mean, that carries on year to year. >> I got you. So, >> and so it one year at a time, no one's going to do that. I mean, >> I'd say you can work with us at least for a year. >> Sure. >> Something to consider, I guess. >> Look at this first year and then we kind of go from there. But so we kind I'd hate for us to sign agreement with you and all of a sudden they say they want to move dirt. >> And I mean I've signed agreements before even like with the county and other stuff in the ground where we can sign it and then agree that if something happens you know it could be reimbursed or something like that. >> I think something like Do you have one of those? >> No, I don't have anything. >> Okay.
Just to let you know, um, former accountant, I worked on some house uh, some healthcare projects, building projects. My cost came up to 938. All right, maybe just off a little bit, but $1,000 of dirt, you know, 938,000 pretty close. So, I think for every maybe thousand square feet that we can save, that's going to be a significant savings. Okay. Um, if I can suggest to the council, I think this is a great first attempt and I think that having 600 people signing a a petition to move this project or talked about this project is a great idea. Should we maybe have an ad hoc committee of some professional people in town that can assist the council in working with the council and with the the police department to come up with a plan that we could present to to to everybody so we don't have to go to the referendum and and then possibly um get voted down.
Then we've got kind of squirreled away in fund 570 another 150,000 for indirect costs if we need it. So that's a nice scenario. We say, well, what if our students don't maintain and we lose 100? Now go to the far column on the right. Let's say we go down from 1952 to 1852. That's going to be a little different, but we're set up for that because we're reducing expenditures again, as you know. So, as we come across here now, we don't have 383 in the weights. We've only got maybe 370. We don't have 695 in this group B for sped. We all counts are down 100. We're down from 3,30 to maybe 28.97. Down 130 for that formula. We still get the 2% more. So, we're still getting the 5,215, but our our revenue produced there goes down from 15.4 million right now to 15.1, which is in this case, you know, down to 695,000.
>> Correct. >> Do you have a sense and I don't need the exact number. What generally what percentage of those are middle school students which I'll call 617 >> as opposed to high school 9 through 12. >> Of the 55 47 of those are high school students and eight of those are middle school students. >> Okay. So you said that if uh Avon goes forward with the virtual school you will not be trying to grow the middle school. >> Correct. >> So tell me what that looks like. How do you grow high school not grow middle school? What's the what's the difference in promotion if you will the two programs? >> Sure. I I think the piece would be is any communication we have like through our newsletters or our board uh I mean sorry our website would only really be targeted at high school.
And these are just some banners we've had made this year for our football games. Um Mr. Bradford made this one and then we just had this one made in the print shop. But I felt like it really helped with like taking pictures for and also just like showing our school spirit. And then some ways we have brought our school spirit back this year. So, we have made our pep sessions a lot more interactive for everyone. So, whether that's kids that want to participate or they don't want to participate. We have gotten prizes. We just like throw them out to everyone sitting down and the kids go crazy, especially the middle schoolers. They love the prizes. Um, so that's a big way we've made it more interactive. And then for football season, um, we've had posters made for the student section. And then we've also gotten items for students to use for dress up days.
Um some of the changes that were made on the end of the corporation was we were getting um um premium payments into the trust every two weeks and it was that was what could come down to we didn't have enough money to pay the claims at the end of that twoe period and we're frantically hoping we have the cash flow. Um, and then what um, John did was he said, "Okay, well, let's pay him every week." I believe that's what we're doing now. It's every week now. Is that correct? Believe it was every week now. So, um, I don't see that money that goes through Julie, but um, so we made that change. It was also um, decided upon that if we did not have the money in the checking account that the the corporation would kind of float us that money for a brief period of time and then we'd pay that back.
So that's kind of neat. Um also in terms of high ability we have really been conscientious about how we are rolling out um just professional development to our teachers also administrators and so we spent all of first semester onboarding our administrators with myself and then also we have a consultant Dr. Christina Ays Paul and she has extensive experience uh being a professor at Purdue University but also a lot of gifted schools around the nation and so with her help we've been just building the capacity of our of our administrators and then also just within our teachers. So before we had this there there is a test called Kogad. It's a cognitive abilities test and prior we were just kind of giving this to kids just to give it to kids. But uh this year I've been intentionally meeting with teacher teams. We have parent communication that's been going out before and after the results come in.
Oh, but he seems to be coming back from this. >> Yeah, in a difficult situation, but he is building back nicely. But EMTT sending that garbage. Relentless. >> Look at that. EMTT clapping for himself. And I'm dare I say, I'm doing the same. Good job, EMTT. That was freaking awesome, actually. Really good for EMTT. So, all of our players so far have had three and 0 matches. They haven't even lost a game in these matches. So, >> the Cyber Tigers eating good. >> Yep. Just to just testament to show how good our Cyber Tigers have improved over this season. >> Over all the seasons, everyone's playing. >> That's true. Over all the seasons because Yeah, a lot of our a lot of our Tetrio members have like played in like many have played many different years against a wide variety of people. >> Alrighty. All right.
look at that. But right now, I think just one >> one year is fine and uh probably just behave. It ain't going to be sprayed or anything like that moving forward for this year. We appreciate you. >> At least you don't have to get cedar trees. >> Sure. And that was one reason. I mean, if you keep spraying it that I mean it was hayed every year, but if >> that's why the cedar trees came up because when they come up this tall, you mow around them because you don't want to hang them >> and then they just keep growing. But if you can spray it or burn it or whatever, it will knock it down. >> That looks better after we clean it up for sure. >> Thank you very much. Question. How cost to like spray something that size? >> So I don't know exactly how many acres are there.
These officers need a new place. All right. Um, people are concerned about the cost and I truly do believe that there is some savings here based upon this. I think it's a great start and I would advocate that we take a look at this and see what we can do to to come up some ways to save some money on this. All right. Thank you very much for your time. I appreciate it. James Bond 10009 Riverview. Um, I agree with many of the comments that have been made so far, so I'll try not to be repetitive. Um, it's an absolute travesty that the police have been working as they have all this time. And a part of that is, you know, at least my own case, I was never forced to go into the police facilities here. So, for those who have been in there, you've probably been aware of this situation for some time.
So, now we're going to be a little tighter for sure, but we still got that 150,000 sitting there in fund 570 if we need to use it. That's unrestricted as long as it's for a legal purpose. And then we might have, you see my last number there, the 850,000. We might have to still do that in capital. And all I can say is all our administrators, doesn't matter if the transportation director or the principal, they all know that three years ago we were spending 2.4 million in capital and this year our budgets the 778,000 and we're going to come in at about 700,000. So they know we're tightening our belt in capital. If we have to transfer to M again, we can do it. We think we've made enough cuts in in operating costs that we'll be between scenario with no reduction in students and the worst case maybe 100 down.
