They are good kids. >> was packed. Uh board members, questions, comments? All the ladies have all left, but congratulations to four ladies who are retiring and welcome Chris. Glad to have you on board. Big shoes to fill for the four of you. Yeah. Yes. Big shoes. And I'm excited about construction trades. You kind of barely bounced over that, but that's a huge deal to step step into an apprenticeship. I would love to see more of that. That's an opportunity we didn't have. And a lot of kids are interested. Good luck to the young lady down there on the not the very end, but she's got a baby in the end, pop, I think. I saw her kind of eight days doing some breathing exercises. I'll let's get this over with. I wish you would have done that earlier. Um 12:00 on Friday is kindergarten graduation, 1:00 is the intermediate school honors program graduation.
So, we were all excited. In December, they said they were going to pass the final draft. We were all sitting around our computers like waiting and they said, um, we will bring up the new accountability measures at another date. So, we watched in February. So, in March, it actually it actually took place. That's pretty exciting except there's still some other pieces. You're going to see things like I read and I learn are really important to this accountability law. As you would guess the ILR cut scores to help us determine if kids are going to pass or not pass will be looked at in Janu or excuse me July of this year in theory then to take to the state school board in August in theory to pass in September. So far throughout this entire process, we've been two to three months behind whatever they've asked us.
>> Any opposed? None. We are approved. The student 6152 student fees and charges is approved. >> Next up to piggyback on that is the to access a student fee for the 2026 2027 school year. Um, it was talked about at uh last month that we have a flat $50 student fee per student for the upcoming 2026 2027 academic year. >> I think that's a countywide initiative if they approve it. So, but for our standpoint, um, that's up for approval. Is there a motion to approve the $50 fee? >> So, moved. >> Motion by Mike. Do we have a second? Second. >> Second by Milt. Any further discussion? >> All those in favor? >> I.
Yeah, and this is exactly what they needed. They needed to try to put a crooked number up here in the bottom of the third and Kreisman takes the first pitch as a strike down 0 and 1, but she puts one on the ground. Butera man, beats it. >> [screaming] >> Fast. She had She took a tremendous jump. She has a lot of guts going for that. [laughter] Uh but you know what, she's the kind of kid who can make a play like that because she's got tremendous speed and she was able to beat the throw. Rebecca reaches first, runner on first and third. Butera man's in on the RBI infield fielder's choice uh by Rebecca Kreisman. I'm going to give her a single because I like her. Mike will write it on the official scoreboard as a fielder's choice though. We will see. Yeah, Butera man had a great slide there.
Is that sufficient or does that need to be a board motion? >> No, I think it's fine. >> If it's by consensus, >> by consensus, the board agreed to have Mr. Murphy >> work with the Wilson Alumni Association on items that they would >> like to are they going to present those to the family? You know, like >> they're going my understanding is they're going to make a shrine or whatever. >> Panels were going to I think remain in the parish hall for display. >> Okay. Okay. >> But and I think that I'm not sure exactly what they were going to do with any memorial items, >> but >> those are like the only two that would necessarily have any time constraints on them. >> Gotcha. >> Everything else can be determined at a later date. >> Okay. Yeah. >> Is this on Memorial weekend?
Uh, we have an employee in our office whose son went on the student council trip to Disneyland and had a blast and there was a time there was a time there with the new person that this was this was a challenge trying to get all this done. So my hats off to that that the new adviser there at the high school. And so for 15 years from 11 to 26 15 years we've had three advisers. It just so happens in the last two years we've had two. So the first one made it just about 14 years. So that's a really big job to to take on and uh again hats off to the high school uh for getting that done and and to the adviser and to the administration for making that happen. And you can see the the cash balances and expenditures. Um, to me that was a real success.
Sarah Mendoza if she's in the crowd. Uh she is the DEA president and plays an instrumental role in this annual process. I'm getting a lot of feedback here. Can Thank you. Um throwing me off a little bit. Um so it's important to know that we start this process in October and we go through each page with a fine-tooth comb. Uh this is a representation of the DEA and the group she serves as well as an agreement with the governing board and as a as a representative of the governing board during this process, myself, and I want to recognize Dr. Jane Weverich, the director of human resources that plays a role in this as well. Uh we're we're excited to share with you that the changes are really minimal compared uh from the past. At last year, we really tightened it up and this year that it's minimal changes as you saw when you reviewed the packet.
Um we know for a fact that's going up and has gone up, and it will continue to go up, and some of the spikes you're seeing are enormous. Um other districts have seen 20 and 30% spikes, and we've been told pretty regularly by ComEd that these spikes are uh are going to continue. So, um the the great thing about solar is whether you are producing at 6.9 cents, or you're producing at 7.5 cents, or you're producing at 10 cents, you won't see the impact because you'll be producing solar alongside those increases. So, the money that would normally be lost and the district would have to pay is offset by having the solar. So, it's a huge huge correlation, especially in the market that we're in with these uh as Prophet will said, the big data centers are taking and they're they're they're causing an already problem and making it worse by uh by increasing the cost of the uh service of the uh service that's coming into the district.
Now, Mrs. Alday will actually give you a summary of our fees, proposed fees. >> So, we have worked um curriculum has worked collaboratively with finance. Um, I mean, this is work we do each year. Um, but we just want to take it to another level and and really look through each item of what we need and making sure we're being very diligent and thoughtful what we charging our families. So, above you see um our proposed fees for K through five. Um, and on this list, I mean includes things like a communication folder, some hands-on materials, some art materials, and some I mean some innovation hands-on materials. So, kindergarten through 5ifth ranges from 1156 on the low end to 1401 um on the the higher end for K5. Um in middle school is a little different because it is dependent there's some the asterisks are dependent if a student enrolls in the course because there's some differentiation by registration.
And so there could be some conversations that might fall under that that umbrella. But it would just really depend on the specifics of a given situation would it fit one of those reasons? If it does, absolutely, we can have an executive session. If it doesn't fit one of those bases, we can't have an executive session on it. How long is going to take you? Uh Mr. Schultz, you've got your hand up. Yeah, follow-up to Dale's callout. Um Mr. McIver, would that not fall under because action was taken in regards to the employment, the performance, and like termination of that part of the executive session? Yeah, I I think Mr. Schultz, you're I think that's the section the language that I'm talking about, but there is one related to employees. Um but again, you know, if if the question that board members have is kind of how quickly could we talk about something or or how fast could we be made aware of it, there would be times when something may happen that um you know, the the employment side of it may not have been figured out yet.
Um hearing none, um we will go ahead and close the public hearing and continue with the regular meeting. Okay. Uh we are on to number Thank you, Chad. Appreciate it. You're welcome. Uh we are on to number five on your agenda, the consent items. Um, so I'd like to get a motion to uh discuss 5A through BB. Uh, A including the minutes for the April 12th, 2026 uh, meeting. The B being the monthly and payroll claims uh, fund transfer report. C, the approval of monthly financial report as submitted by the treasurer. Uh, we have several uh, retirements and resignations here as well as recommendations for new hires. um and a couple of fundraisers, uh basketball camps, YMCA camp, lifeguard training, as well as Deli Main Street, asking to use our facility for the July 4th weekend. That rounds out 5BB. So, I'd like to get a motion to discuss 5A through BB as presented.
Um 11:00 on Saturday the 23rd. 23rd. Um if you guys can be at the library at by 10:30, you're going to be able to come. So. That will wrap up the year. I'm very excited about the ambassador program. I think one of the one of the things that we've been I hate to say it, accused of, but accused of is a lack of transparency. And I think this is an awesome way to help that uh feeling go away. All right. I need a motion to close the election. Is there a motion or do I have a second? I'll second. All those in favor say aye. Aye. Opposed? Thank you all.
So, I'm not going to get my hopes up too much that we're going to see those cut scores until December. But hope springs eternal. Even if they follow the process, we'll be through the first nine weeks and the first set of checkpoints before we see this year's results. So, that puts us a little bit behind, but we we're quick. We're quick studies. We'll catch up. If you could flip one more time, Miss Cindy, I'm going to hand this lovely mic to Lauren, and she's going to talk about preschool through about sixth grade. And I'll give you a couple of things for seventh and eighth grade, and then Dr. Daggins will talk for a minute about ninth and 10th, or I'll talk about ninth and tth grade, and he'll follow up in a few minutes. So, as you can imagine, the lower grades, there's less to kind of tell you about uh as we're not in testing grade levels, but attendance is something that you're going to hear throughout the entire model.
Any opposed? >> Same sign. With none, we approved 50. Next up, um it's a consideration for recommen recommendation to approve the administrative pay adjustments. It's in our packet. Anything further on that? Is there a motion to approve? >> So moved. >> Motion by Mil. Is there a second? >> Second by Vicki. Further discussion. All those in favor? >> I.
I mean, she just she came in right under that tag. I mean, it it the play was all unfolded right in front of her and I don't know how she got her foot in there. But she was able to score. Tremendously aggressive base running by the Clockers and you manufacture runs that way. When you have speed on the bases, you're a dangerous weapon. Yeah. Yeah, I'll give a lot of credit to the coaching staff um for getting the team to to be this aggressive on the base paths. And it's and it's it's working. So, when Al Al Wilson is falling behind, you're one and two, I believe, is the count. Wilson up with runners on second and third and no outs. And she takes it. Ball inside. Two and two is the count, I believe, George. So, in her first time up, Wilson grounded it out to third.
Is this like Association meeting or >> it's a meeting. >> Yeah. Yeah. And they're meeting in Big >> Oh, okay. There's like an annual thing. >> Yeah. >> Oh, okay. Okay. Thank you. >> What day is that on? >> Is it Saturday? >> Is it on the 23rd or is it on >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Okay. I think it's Saturday. >> The state track is always that same day. That's all I remember. >> Yeah. State tracks pushed back one week. Yeah. So, so Memorial Day is actually before State Track this time. So, okay. Got it. >> Okay. I got that. >> Okay. Thank you, ma'am. Okay. I want to give you guys some background. Uh talked to Scott Gordon just a little bit today on administrative review. Um should know something by the last Tuesday in May from their uh their perspective. um did receive a co phone call from uh Silven Lucas that you know once we get the administrative review they're ready to start coming together at a table and start having some discussions if our board's interested.
Any any questions on anything else for student activity funds? >> Nope. I think we're good. Thank you very much. >> All right. Item 7A is tonight's consent agenda agenda. I would entertain a motion uh for tonight's consent agenda, items 8 through K. >> I'll make a motion to approve tonight's consent agenda. >> I'm sorry I interrupted. I shall second. >> Fantastic. All in favor? I >> I thank you. All right, let me get to the next page. Item eight is our personnel report. Um item 8A is the actual personnel report. Madam Chair, um board members, Miss Daniels, um we have our um May personnel report. We have two nurse certified employees, one new classified employee, three new classified subs, seven resignations, one termination, two employees who did not return their contracts, one certified change, 42 classified changes, two extra duty, and one time sheet. >> Um, the ones that don't return their contracts, do you reach out to them and see?
Uh five major topics were addressed and there was really just word tightening, word smithing, and uh just getting some more clarity, but no major changes uh with this recommendation to the governing board with the agreement between DEA and the governing board. >> Motion to approve the memorandum of understanding with the Dysart Education Association Association as presented for the 2026-2027 school year. >> Second. >> Motion carries. >> Thank you. >> Next item is a request for future agenda items. >> I would just like to um express my desire to find out the screen time again for um students in the classroom. >> Could we get um an information item on the crime statistics in our Dysart communities versus uh Phoenix Union? >> All right, hearing no more, I make a motion to call an executive session. >> Second. >> Yes. No. Motion carries. >> Mhm. >> We now reconvene the regular meeting.
Um we did we put a 5% escalation rate on these numbers for this serve to show you what we think and what we expect some of these spikes to look like. So, that's that's represented in these in these projections. Um And so, when everything is said and done, you're potentially, like I said, looking at a brown of 7-year payback uh from start to finish, which is absolutely uh un- unbelievable, outstanding. It's a It's a way to take a short-term investment and and make it into yourself and and recoup that money and use it for a lot of other things. A lot of districts started to do solar because they had roof roofing needs and the solar offset it the future roof costs. And so, we looked at two high schools, and then we also looked at the five elementary schools like I mentioned, and then we grouped it all together um to show you.
So you can see um there's some courses that are not listed on here and because this is student fees, the textbooks are still covered by Avon schools. So these are just the student fees and so the hands-on materials and different pieces like that. And so depending on your course, these would be the fees that you would be charged. Um and this is not all inclusive. There is some differentiation sometimes in a high ability course. We were just trying to give you some examples. Now, the next one's the hardest is the high school because we offer so many courses um at the high school. I did quickly count um of all our courses at Avon High School, we have around 200 courses that have a fee of zero. Um so about 200 that have a fee of zero. Um the average, if you would average from the low to the high, is around $25, some being a lot more lower.
