I just want to formally recognize uh these three. So the maintenance team performed at a high level during the summer of 2025 to not only reset classrooms and prepare for this year uh but also completing a number of construction and refurbishing projects. um their dedication to the district to complete these projects for the improvement our facil of our facilities and opportunities for students didn't go unnoticed and um they're just a great asset to the district and great bring great credit upon themselves for their super superb work. So just wanted to say thank you and recognize recognize you guys. Thank you for
003your work and >> thank you. Thank you. Appreciate [Applause] >> you guys appcate. 30 60 90 day planning. >> All right. So, um not nothing tremendously major coming up. I think the the one thing of note and to get across uh or to get some more information from board is attendance at those region one meetings which is in October uh two different locations for our region. So just I I need to get information from from the board who wants to attend uh because then we have to register because there's a meal and stuff that goes with that. So all right so please consider it. I will be attending the one in Rice Lake. So >> what's that? >> I will too. >> Okay. All right. So if you wish to attend, please send it an
004email. Okay. >> All right. Thank you. [Music] >> 20 242 seclusion andor restraint report. >> Okay. So every year at this time uh we have to provide a report to the board which then is also forwarded to the Wisconsin DPI and uh the nice thing about last year is we had zero of each um and it provides a definition of what each one is. So that's a good thing that means we are interacting with students in a way that is is respectful and in a positive. a question. >> Yeah. >> Is this like the definition of the physical restraint? Is that something you come up with or is that something provided by the state? >> That is something that's provided by the states. >> Yeah, they revamp or they revamped that. I'm trying to think
005probably about six years ago >> and being very specific in it. So >> yeah, I was just surprised that head was >> Yep. Yeah. That was part of the addition. >> All right. So, Sunshine Committee Activity Fund. What is that? Never heard of it. >> Yeah. So, we've got a um a Sunshine Committee is it's a a committee that uh looks at spreading sunshine and uh positivity uh within the the district and within the building. Usually that that refers to a group that uh uh provides flowers or something positive for someone who lost a family member or is going through a difficult time. So it's as it sounds like sunshine setting setting a ray of hope and sunshine. >> Do we need to do anything with that? the the main thing that what they're looking
006for is uh building an activity fund and that's what would require your um your approval is that activity fund >> just basically opening one >> school that is correct if you want to speak to that >> so this is just kind of a formality yes >> can I can I get a motion to approve the sunshine committee activity fund I have a motion. >> Anybody second? >> Second. >> All in favor? >> I. >> Any opposed? >> All right. Fall co-op. Sports co-op. All right. You want to speak to that at all? No. >> Go for it. You get started. >> Sweet. All right. So, so every every year at uh certain times we we have to make sure that we are ratifying our our co-ops. uh in the fall, we have to ratify uh
007our fall co-op for the following year. So, as we take a look at our our current arrangements with Northwood, that would be um our cross country as well as our football if we're going to continue that. I don't see any reasons why we want to discontinue. So, and there's there's no requirement to make a decision right now, but know that we have to continue to approve that as we go. So, okay. Uh, moving on. Policy updates, volume 34.2, group one, first reading. Other than that, I think we just need to push that on to the next board meeting, unless anybody has any questions right off the bat. >> Right. I I would say that there's a number of them that are there's additions that um mirror some of the stuff that it's in our handbooks.
008I think the one uh specific one that Leanne and I were taking a look at was the employment of substitutes because there's different um there's different timelines for their pay and benefits and whatnot and making sure that that mirrors what our practices are. So, all right. >> Just on that topic, do you I mean, are we in pretty good shape for substitutes this year? >> Um depends on the day. I will say that uh today being our first full week, we were not able to man all of our open spots. So hopefully that's not the case on a regular basis. So anybody else have any questions on that before we move on? >> Equipment use. >> All right. Uh so what I have for you is uh it was a draft user agreement between the
009governance board and the regular board and this pertains to equipment that was purchased uh by the governance board through grants and uh I brought that in front of the governance board as well to get their take on it and it's basically an agreement on the the equipment being used and and giving some parameters as to how it's being used if that makes sense. So, um, so once again, this is in draft form here for for the board to consider. Uh, there's they they did inquire about an appendix on the specific equipment and and I will say that when we start looking at it specific equipment, it is a a school bus that was purchased. So, it's our our LP uh or propane driven bus. Uh, we have a a truck that uh is pulled for
010trailers, looking at using that for some of our snow uh removal and then a that could be utilized for um some sports endeavors mainly when I'm I'm thinking about this like our cross country needs if we're hosting it can be utilized in that sense but having very specific parameters so >> so that things that were purchased with a grant now we're outside of that time frame then they can be >> it's well yeah it's it's outside of that that grant time but it's still it's still considered part of the governance boards a property itself. >> We just can't use it willingly. >> Yeah, that's I guess that's what it comes down to. >> Well, so one thing and I know we did discuss this in the LA in the governance board is the difference between
011supplies and equipment and but one thing I would ask uh that we consider adding to the appendix are the canoes. >> Um I know they're they don't fall under the parameters of equipment, >> right? Um but that to me that the district expends money on that every year when we have those sitting there in the parking lot, >> right? >> Um so if if the govern board is agreeable to that, I mean I think it's something we should consider adding, >> right? And I and I think as we look at that maybe developing what some of those parameters are or you know do they have some an approval process that go through in that sense. So, did we ever So, the UTV thing, ATV thing. >> Yeah. >> They couldn't figure out anything else besides
012that or it just to me that just seems kind of >> do we really need the UTV now? >> Yeah. So, so I I know that. Yeah. There there were a few different uses that come into hand with that. And Mark liked the idea because sometimes when he's hauling things down to the field that that will be handy for him to be able to use um upkeep too. >> So my only concern there is there a like percentage we can use it over them. >> Uh part of that agreement there's nothing in here stating a percent. >> I just want to make sure we don't get in trouble. like it sounds like we'll use it for other things then the >> I I think what it comes down to is governance board basically gets the
013priority if there's a conflict. >> Okay. >> Um this this was stuff that was discussed with um our um consultant uh from works or Wisconsin I >> the charter school anyway. So, so the consultant but then also uh Michael McCabe from the DPI said yes we can operate in that sense where we had that agreement uh between the two entities. So >> all right anybody else have any questions on that? Do we need to approve that or are we just discussing we can wait for >> it can wait I'll wait till >> uh region one meetings. >> So I I already kind of hit this one once again. I just need to >> What's the registration deadline? >> Uh I don't know. I put the flyer in there. I don't think I can't remember if
014there was a specific date, but I would say if I can get that in the next couple weeks, that would be awesome. So, yeah, I didn't see any specific dates for that. So, >> all right. Charter school lead teacher ro. >> All right, last one. So th this was a topic that uh it's more of keeping uh the board a breast of of this discussion. Uh we've been talking about lead teacher positions in in the charter school um with the board and uh seeing that to fruition as to okay we identify what the roles and responsibilities are and now let's look at when when we put this into practice what does it look like and it also involves a compensation uh and couple board members and and uh Ann and myself are going to be
015meeting in the next couple weeks to take a look at what what is a compensation what is compensation look for that look like for each one of these entities because maybe they're not the same. So, and just come up with some different thoughts here. So, so it's more of information for the board uh as we move forward. So, >> okay. Well, let's convene to close session pursuant to the Wisconsin statute 19.85. 851c to consider employment promotion compensation or performance evaluation data of any public employee over which this governmental body has jurisdiction or exercises responsibility. Can I get a motion? >> Motion. >> Second. All in favor? >> Any oppose? >> All right. >> Everybody wants to see the Vikings tonight. That's why >> it is at 6:15. >> I want to see them lose. Oh,
016>> yes. Nice. [Music]
