So, we have Northeast Independent Living coming in after school on Thursdays and they're working with students with a simulated driving unit to be able to get their permit and learn the rules of the road. And then we have three students that are not eligible to be able to drive due to their disabilities. And they've all been set up on the ME mini mea transportation. And this is work that our transition specialist is currently doing. And where are we going next? We um we're going to continue to expand our literacy and the services of students. We are training um three teachers this summer in Read Live. That will be um an extension to what they're already doing.

You can still take time away from the school year calendar, but I think um it's after 7 days is when we would meet to talk about what next.

On behalf of the community of Thomas Jefferson School Number 9, it is our greatest pride to introduce to you our para professional for this school year, Ms. Sasha Amaro. Sasha began her position with Garfield as a PCA, and it was quickly observable by anyone that her demeanor with her students, her interactions with all of the staff were going to lead her into something bigger and better. We are grateful every day that Sasha is a part of our community. She makes the staff better. She makes the students better. There's not a situation, there is not a moment that you know that Sasha is not going to be able to handle. Every community is better because they have Sasha in it, and we're thankful every day she's there.
It's also taught me how, like, the importance of being committed and being consistent. It helped me understand like how the little details truly do make a difference, and how your small actions, like being prepared, being engaged, being attentive, you know, they really do add, you know, a meaningful effect to the progress over time. And, um, I can assure you that next year's board, like, I already had like a couple friends approach me, um, this past week, and they were talking about applying for the board. I'm like, "Yeah, you should definitely apply. It's a great experience to, you know, for you, and you'll learn a lot, so I'm, you know, grateful for next year's board." I just want to take this time to also thank like all the teachers and students who were able to attend the luncheon learn, and help make it such an engaging and, you know, valuable experience.

Follow-up to your questions or concerns may be addressed by administration through the contact information provided on the comment card. Thank you. Alexa Ludwigsen Hello. My name is Alexa Ludwigsen and I'm a freshman at Oswego High School. And I am here to ask the board to consider the need for adding online classes to be offered at the high school school level again. As a student who has a 504 for two different conditions, I understand how necessary accommodations are in order for people to have an equal learning environment. Me, along with many other students, some of which are my close friends, have had to fight for accommodations and in many cases we haven't gotten enough to fit our needs.
So, uh I welcome uh Mr. Glansman here tonight and uh recommend approval.

Recently, she completed her coursework coursework. Sorry, it's been a long night. Coursework for her professional human capital leader and education certification, which is an HR certification.

Allman, Dr. P O, Mr. McKinney, and Mr. Chapman. Well, good evening. Um you know, we do these tip occasionally throughout the year. Um focus on the elementaries, now middle school, and then later in the year will be high school. I'm going to start kick off pretty quickly and I want to focus on two things. One piece is I think we really, when you look at some of the demographic data, should celebrate the great work of redistricting. Cuz we went from two middle schools and when you look at the demographic data of our three middle schools, I'm not sure how you can get them any more similar than they are. Um and you know, that is when you really think about just the way the lines work. I mean, you know, we saw this with two middle schools, but now we're seeing this with three middle schools.
And my favorite high school memory has to be doing my senior project. I remodeled the Columbus East High School sensory room, which is a space for students with intellectual and developmental disabilities calm down and regulate their sensory processing. Um, and throughout high school, I've been involved in track, cross country, key club, student assembly, student government, HOSA, NHS, and other organizations. Hello everyone, my name is Sydney Johnson. My post high school plans are to go to IU Indie to study nursing on a premed track. My favorite teachers throughout high school, I would like to mention all the biomedical science teachers. They have all been really great. And also a shout out, Mr. Leno in anatomy. He has definitely made some things click for me. And then throughout high school, I have been the president of HOSA, which is Health Occupation Students of America. I'm the C4 ambassador for the biomedical sciences program and I'm also an NHS member.
Um and I think we've heard what people have to say. Um one thing I do want to be clear on, this this has weighed on this community uh the I I've been here 4 years, and it's literally been kind of under the ground for those 4 years, and I believe it's been here longer than that that that discussion's being being had. Um and I I just at some level we have to do something. And I I I have told people many times now that I'm to the point I I honestly am to the point where I don't have an opinion. I really just want a decision, because then we can plan. Um and that's that's kind of where I am. Um I I will save my thoughts on a recommendation for the next meeting. Um but I I feel like um all the people that spoke have good points.
>> Yeah, cuz you guys Yeah. It's okay. Yeah. Yeah. We'll do it at school. >> Okay, perfect. >> Thank you. >> Rule 9 item 4.01 patrons registered to comment on educational issues tonight. We have two individuals registered to comment. The first one is Julie Windorff. If you could come forward to the podium, please. Just a reminder, Ms. Basin's going to keep track of time. We have 3 minutes. When it gets to 30 seconds left, she may give you a warning. Thank you. >> Sure. Before you start my time, I do want to say that I had one of the CPTV people interview me recently on library legislation and SB1 and I've been interviewed a lot in the last 2 years and they were the best prepared reporters. I was really impressed with their level of understanding. I was really it was really it took me aback really.
So, we had full on taste testings of local snacks each night. Um and then actually our bus driver brought us um a snack from his own hometown as well. So, it was all all in all a fantastic trip and fantastic food. Um the kids really got to see some uh you know, once in a lifetime experience, I think. So, I look forward to continuing with GMS Travel. Um and then thank you guys so much for >> Thank you. It's always awesome to hear about the cool things that our young folks are doing within the schools, so well done. Thank you for that. Um I am a little disappointed though when I have to put this out publicly that there was an awful lot of talk about those little snacks and pizza and pasta and I don't think anyone up here received any of that and that's a little disappointing.
One of the things Mr. Peters and I uh struggled with was we got very busy in operations, very busy with bonds and building projects. I I see Terry, I think I saw him more than most family members there for a while, and and it was pulling us in different directions from the academics if you will. So, the functionality of the director of teaching and learning is K-12 academics. Previously, Jay did that for this corporation. He's done that for me and and Mr. Trout as well. The assistant sup when Mr. Trout stepped away or had to be out of the corporation is the things that I've been doing. All of operations, some of the things maybe above the principal level, certain things legally and otherwise for the district. And so, what we've tried to do is take what really was happening and put titles and job descriptions to the functional behavior of central office.
Thank you. You're welcome. Yes, Ms. Lawrence. >> I apologize. I should have asked this when I was talking about cost savings, but it it just for clarification, we're not giving up anything in order to Right. I know.

Correct. >> Okay, perfect. Thank you. Any other questions or comments, board? All right. Moving on to Dr. Nesbitt again, 3.3, results of the RFP bids for the security services. Thank you, President Norman. That was a quick slideshow there. So I'll go ahead and uh freelance here. So the security bids very similar timeline that went out. Uh and so we had three uh bidders come in for security services. There it is up. Thank you, Sheila.
always fun to look at. So Payne for the season has 80 points, 48 assists, 32 goals. So make that 33 goals for Payton. >> I think her sister um two years ago had her 100th goal. I remember seeing that on social media's a little bit far away from that, but trying to get to her 100th point whether by assist or goals. It's a nice win by Maggie McInness over to Lily Vidy. some key thing over here winning those faceoffs. Great move by Lily Vidy. >> Wow. I don't know how Payton Trip got that, but incredible play.

Yeah, right to Zach Hughes. >> And Zach Hughes did get the shot off. Oh, nice save from Archie. Might have hit a post. >> I think it hit him. >> And Whitesman the athletic multi-sport player just continues to impress, Cam. >> Yeah, it's funny, too, about Whitesman because um after watching his basketball season, you wouldn't think he'd be like the defenseman necessarily.
Gets dislodged. Davido gets herself a foul. Northampton deep in their territory just under a minute and they get the ball behind the net. >> They get the ball over the goalie.

Sorry on Arbiter. two goes in and out. Turns around, takes a shot. And another save by Julia Gray to turn around. >> Kick the ball out. First quarter was the Northampton goalie making all the saves.

So, February 15th is the in in this example of a calendar >> She could say February 12th and we could say turn If it's a school day >> That's correct. Absolutely. Yeah. >> Yeah, I think also going into this, right? We're bringing back earlier. So, we're going back to August, which we historically did before CLES was built. Um and there's 15 days in there. So, even like we were going back like our worst year when we had that ice storm, then we had the macroburst, and we still we went to June 3rd, right? So, I think that was probably the worst year that we had. Um right? I mean but >> [cough] >> I think bringing back in August is a smarter thing that we have to do. >> Gives us >> It gives us a little bit of a buffer. Um I also think too, I mean we do have a ton of families that um travel on April break.
