Test. >> That button's touching. >> I'll throw on his chair. Hopefully we get our It's on. It's on. It's on. All right. [clears throat] What else would you expect from an eighth grader? What happens? easier. on your chair. >> Oh, thank you. We're not exactly sure. It's just slightly [laughter] >> [laughter] >> This is just funny. >> A way to put we don't I think your thyroid. I just >> I'm going to go through They wanted me to >> Yeah. which at this point very Yes. I didn't realize Sorry. >> [laughter] >> Sorry. I got an [laughter] is Is there something wrong?
002>> [clears throat] >> Okay, I'd like to call this meeting to order. The meeting is a notice to Evans Print Media Group, WCW Radio, Magnum Radio, Lacrosse Tribune, Sparta Free Library, and the Maplewood Administrative Building. Are there any changes to the agenda? >> Yes, I'd like to. We have an addition course request. So I'd like that. So we'll talk about the consent first and then we'll go back and revisit the AC. >> Could I get a motion to adopt the agenda as stated? >> So moved. >> Second. Motion from Mr. Wells, second from Mr. Bernett. All in favor? >> I. >> We have an agenda. Please stand for the pledge of allegiance, please. >> Aliance to the flag. of America to the republic for which it stands under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for
003all. >> And Sam, if you'd be so kind as to remind us of the SASD mission statement. >> Yes. To educate all students academically, emotionally, and socially to inspire curiosity and resilience. >> Do we have any public input this evening? >> And moving on to reports, Dr. Rene, could you please do a summer school report? >> Hello everybody. [laughter] >> Um, so I'm here to talk about our summer programming this year. Thank you. Um, by the numbers we had, I'm going to back this up a little bit because the screen we had 284 kids in our readiness classes. So our readiness classes are like um up to 4K academic play for K flourishing in first all the way up to school type of during the summer. Um maybe they need a little bit more help
004in math and reading um for one reason or another. Maybe they need help with a daily um hab uh not habits. What's the word? I'm looking for routines. That's the one. Thank you. Um, so we had 28 kids in courses this year. Um, that is an error. The 1936 classes, that should say more than 30 classes. We did not offer. I apologize. Um the number of kids though and um were in on campus either at Herman Southside High School or the middle school. Um kids were kids who took swimming lessons that school district paid for. Um, and then we had 117 kids take a credit bearing course last summer. That's any any of the four coursees that we offer credit recovery in. We also offer health, personal finance, things as um so students through 12
005participated in credit bearing courses for STEM camp was 423. Um the number of minutes went down 28 million from last year but that was because we had the three days at the beginning of the year in 2023 and um and so all last year across the district. So those are just a little data. Um we did send a survey again end of the summer to families and to staff. So you can see this one was how the experience was large very positive and there were 85 responses total leaving programming. How successful was communication? and the largest share is uh very successful. Um registration and scheduling we did change a little bit last year. We're going to change it again um this coming year always better on that one as well. And organization positive experience over
006kids and then staff feedback. Um was staff experience many uh eights, nines and tens with a few um fours, fours, fives and sevens in there. Communication a little bit wider array but still a large majority right hand side which was positive. Um and then organization again a little bit wider but majority um said it was high highly successful and I'm the remote for a moment to Miss Mayansky. I'm kind of penting because I asked one of our interventionist to be here. So it'll all be good because I put this together. Um, so this summer we offered our interventions just a little bit differently on plans going to receive interventions. So that whole process was actually bit easier especially using Next Path because kids were very easy to find. Um, and I wanted to point out
007to you that it is a requirement of 20 that students in third grade exit from a reading plan at the end of third grade are required to have um summer interventions of when we adopted the policy it wasn't mandated for us but it will summer we got a jump start on it which is us um we actually started we also started doing interventions in wind. Um, three staff members working four each. She just had me. Um, the intera grades one through four and the reasons we offered for those grades are because students are identified in grades kindergarten, first, second, and third with reading plans. Last year being our first year. So we offer you which is grades one. We offer phonics for reading um which is actually I should have written grade four there because
008students going into grade three. Um so phonics for reading actually starts in third and fourth grade. So for that we also offered support coach which supports comprehension. Um and in addition to smart interventions we also offered an additional dose students that were in win during camp sparta. So they basically went to interventions during camp sparta and then during and after camp sparta offered um I ready pathway. So that's their based on their diagnostics and the instruction level in reading and reading two days a week and math two days a week. We also practice site word practice them in fluency passages and um the results were actually quite astounding. So what I did is I looked at their I Ready diagnostics course from last spring and then I compared them to this fall. Um the average
009growth of all the students that received includes those and those just started 10.4 10.74 points growth. um when you add in those that had it win, the average was 21.35 points. Well, that's great. What does that really mean? So, when you look down below, that shows the average um growth or decline actually um nationally. So, from kindergarten to first grade, it's nationally zero for the growth. um first to second grade negative one, second to third grade and third to fourth grade plus two. So now that you know that you can see that 10 points to 20 points is quite a extremely pleased with the growth that interventions both in Sparta and wind had our students. But you always are wanting continuous improvement. And so our next steps are really to evaluate the effectiveness of each
010of those interventions and looking at those interventions at the grade level. So we've already identified um from some of those interventions not as grade levels and we might want to try something different next year. Um also looking at which staff members get the best results at different grade levels. we all kind of have levels that we work best with. Um, and then really some different options for providing interventions differently. So that open experiment works very well for us. So what other options explore to to continue to grow? So with that we'll move on to tenative dates. So the tentative dates for next year um have been discussed at cabinet but they are still tentative. Um and so they are pretty much exactly the same as they were this year except we moved through and then
011everything else is just following year. Do you have questions? Oh, >> and then I have Tom here to talk about STEM camp. >> All right, this was STEM camp number five for Sparta. STEM camp number three for me. So, I'm just going to go through what camp is, how it uh has evolved over the last five years camp. Uh, and it's camp is all about empowering students. It's uh focus is on military students, military connected students um primarily, but it's open to all students. The mission of STEM camp is to uh provide hands-on low tech opportunities for students to learn about STEM, science, technology, engineering, and math. camp structure. We have three days that are hands-on project days this year, Tuesday and Thursday. And then we have one field trip day and one family from
012the area STEM jobs. Um, field trip day is always connected with the theme. I'll talk about that. Um, what else? The duration of the camp is always a fiveday um camp. We start we open the doors at 8, start camp at 9ine and and end at three. Like I said before, high impact, low tech. um a lot of the projects that are done with just household items um and they all are tied to the theme. So you can see I can't the word STEM camp in each of those logos. Uh there's a theme disaster masters for 203 um system safari for 2024. Those are the three camps that was involved with and they all had those themes and our field and were connected to those themes as well as all the projects uh throughout the
013week were connected themes as well. Um interactive learning that's again learning by doing students really do get uh their hands dirty literally sometimes um and more than just their sometimes doing projects. A lot of them inside and the students have a lot of fun uh with them and learn about science and technology through that that hands-on process. And I mentioned uh that it's military connected. All of our field trips have also been military connected. So um we've uh went out to the react center uh the first year uh the system safari weeded military readiness training at our students saw emergency EMT in the military uh worked and saving soldiers and so on. And then last this past summer uh we went out campground of Fort McCoy and worked with the biologists um and of course
014department out there learning about bugs and tree turtles and so lots of lots of real fun stuff for the kids and also very much connected to our to our military installations here in the area. And there are uh in family day there are a number of things that we want to make sure we include. Uh we want a good uh the showcase for the the kids projects presentation experts um and the exhibition the businesses as a family every year there's a challenge for the families to do something like bridge during the disaster masters this year the challenge was to design a book that scoot water fast so That was challenges here. All right, just a couple of photos quickly of some of the events, mostly family day events. And then this shows the five years.
015So Camp Central in Illinois, they're the ones that design the curriculum. They support us with curriculum materials. Um they provide teaching training. Uh and they also do very detailed surveys at the beginning of the camp and at the end of the camp. They put all that data together so you can see um where are across uh the country. They're always in places that are close to military because of the military. This past camps we've been involved here. some some places have uh started and fallen off and then we've added some new ones. Um Heather, if you slide over and then uh this is shows the impact of and I'm gonna walk over there so I can see it a little bit better. Uh each year you'll see the percentage of parents agree that STEM STEM
016camp was funded by their child 95% 64% students agree that STEM camp increased their interest in STEM educational uh and teachers not focus on a teacher degree and it encourages students to pursue STEM careers. And then the STEM areas of interest over there, those are different types of STEM readers that students became engaged in or interested. >> Okay, final slide then. final side is just questions. So I think we'll open it up questions for all of >> questions or comments from board members. >> Okay, >> thank you. >> Super helpful overview too. I mean the thank you to everyone working from summer to reading scores to STEM camp. That was super helpful. Um two questions more just off of the STEM camp there. Do we open for students as part of and the other was
017just to clarify I think I know the answer this but be worried about future STEM camps funding and federal uncertainties. >> That's a great question. The STEM camp central that I mentioned Illinois was originally funded with a fiveyear grant that predated the actual first camp. So that funding ended in 2024 and actually 23 because4 camp was self-funded. That's when we went to integrate STEM camp here in Sparta into our summer school make it self here. as far as the curriculum and stem camp structure from STEM camp central they've created C3 and they have also connected with what's called DTEC which is department consortium of organizations five years from now so we definitely are able to continue for at least five more years getting that curriculum continuing on with with it integrated into summer school. >>
018Perfect. That's >> Thank you. >> Miss Lopez, you have questions? >> I thank you very much. Um Dr. Bernett, I think it was you who um you were talking by the numbers >> um with the readiness program. I heard I think you say that parents would recommend students. >> Yeah. >> So also teachers do. >> Yes. So, we last year and in the years past really uh parents can sign their kids up for whichever class they want their kids to have. However, at teacher conferences better for a specific student, they wouldn't parents. This year, our goal is to have registration things ready for spring um conferences. So it will be more of a planned purposeful kids right classes >> you mentioned um some students are taking swimming lessons so how who is eligible for that
019[clears throat] >> any student who lives in the smart area school district is eligible so it doesn't matter if they attend during the school year they live within your border they are eligible um the school district will pay for one um round swim lessons and that allows us to count up the minutes for um summer and we teacher a licensed teacher on hand teaching techniques sometimes if >> okay yeah I wasn't aware of that before >> sorry my computer Um and then also um mandating for reading. So you had said third graders um next year they'll be summer reading interventions. Is that right? >> So yes, according to act 20 we need to offer summer reading interventions to anyone who does not we don't have to mandate that they come. We have to mandate that
020we offer it. >> That was my how do >> that is a good question. Okay. And then >> for um STEM camp, so if parents are working and not able to get there, how are the rest of the kids supported if their families aren't there? >> So these students that don't have parents or relatives, a lot of times parents don't have a parent or an adult with them, we pair them up with one of the teachers or our lab assistants. and you go stations with the students into the different areas with them. >> Okay, thank you very much. >> That's all. Thank you for >> other questions or comments from board members. >> If not, thank you all very much. >> Um Russ, >> uh yes, I just wanted to real quick here. Uh we
021had a facility workshop. Obviously we as possible but uh the ones that were there I think were engaged continued to look on Wednesday we went from eight to about four um with keys door hardware um and we'll say it over and over the hardest part we would put in two floors at SHS and there's a reason why we put in two floors because they did not let the manufacturer know and this and this. So, it's really about wear and tear. How do we use them for cleaning the It's amazing the things that learning. So, we're shifted gears for a new floor. It's a rubberized more out of it. I've learned that they come with a wear layer. So, you put it down the wear layer off. Well, that's not that easy. So, and then you
022have timelines, you have, you know, last thing that has to be done or then the case works got to come in, then the furniture got to come in. So, we're working with our furniture company. They actually have a the flooring that we're looking at now. So, they can run through their their labs and casters versus I'm sorry, gliders, plastic versus casters and and great project, but um just a lot of time and well worth our time. So, also we had a very successful trick or treat. I'd like to have Miss Hower talk a little bit about that. We were at trickor treat street. Thank you to Miss Mansky, Miss Hower for doing that. And we had uh one of ours, do you want to say a little bit? >> Um me and Missy were at
023trick or treat handing out candy. Miss Mansky also flyers for reading and math help for parents based on different grade levels which were um really popular with some of the families. We had a lot of them go out. So that was a good title family outreach opportunity. And then we also had a big sign for our construction project has a QR code on it and we have lots of people stop and pictures of the QR code. So it was a nice way to get audiences who don't always come to our building. >> So continue to try the best we can um continue but continue to get those updates our families really appreciate. So >> thank you very much. Thank you Leah and Miss Mansky. Uh, moving along to Spart School and upcoming meetings. Again, Mr.
024Russ. >> Yep. Not a lot of announcements. U we're rolling here. We uh Friday happens to be uh Halloween. Um so we have a professional development day that all of our classified and certified staff are coming in and we lot activities planned uh for learning focused on engagement and moving forward there. So, u we have our board meetings there, but November we do celebrate our Veterans Day programs at all of our buildings and uh we're going to have a guest speaker from Fort McCoy at one of McCoy as well. So, lots of happenings are fall sports are winding down. However, fine arts is ramping up um and uh for concerts and for musicals fire is going to start up here. So, there's a lot of going on school winter athletics is starting up just a
025lot of activities. We never sleep. So, anyway, and then we have the upcoming board meetings. Just one note about the December board meeting that is only one week due to the holiday. >> Thank you very much. Moving along to the consent agenda. Uh board members can please read through. Remember we pulling E. So we're going to pull out the start college now and early college credit program discuss but you could look through what we have consent agenda. I would accept motion already. You look through those. I just want to make a special attention to our donors this month. Uh church smart alliance club is the official uh for your approval but we have a lot of information as well. Candace Becker shadows club handley's old donuts educators chiropractic serene clean foods Walgreens creek family RV
026park Ashley Fitzpatrick and boat number 7526 your genations Move to approve the consent agenda as presented without item E. >> Second. >> I have a motion from Mr. Burns Gilbert to hear a second from Mr. Wells. Roll call, please. >> Mrs. Lopez. >> Yes. Mr. >> Yes. >> Mr. Wells, >> yes. >> Dr. Bernett, >> yes. >> Barrens, >> yes. >> Mr. Burns, >> yes. Motion carry 70. And please look at Start College now and early credit program. Mr. Russ, >> yes. The only change start college now stays the same but student number nine on ECC um credits originally and we back and looks number nine on the second attachment as well. So it's from four to seven credits a motion to accept that change. >> So move second motion for Mr. Bilbert second for
027Mr. Wells. Do you need a roll call? All in favor? >> I >> opposed. Motion carries 70. >> Discussion and possible action to approve the 2526 original budget and certify the taxer and Mr. Russ. >> Thank you. Um I'm going to go quickly through some of the key slides that were presented at the annual meeting. uh these slides the administrative recommendation for tonight as well as read the feedback from the annual meeting this presentation we'll be looking for two motions um one if you're ready to adopt the original budget school year and the second is to certify the tax levy the certifying the tax levy does have to meet statuto guidelines the original budget if you're ready we put ready from administration. Um so starting with function we talked through major revenue variables biggest being
028the new budget but also some changes in grants showing a total revenue again starting our original budget of 44.1 million which is down from last year's fantion expenses Um, I grabbed one of the slides, but our major changes for expenses, salaries, and benefits. As our grants change for revenue, they also change for expenses. Have some new purchases increases for utilities and contracted transportation. And that shows total expenses of 44 a.5 million compared to last year which was closer to 44.9 million. 27 special education revenue and expense both in this fund through transfer from 10. The total budget is increasing from 7.5 million up to 8. For 1039, the budget includes plus we're looking to issue the next 15 million of our 87 million referendum 26 year. And um therefore our levy is increasing in 39
029as well as fun 46. There's no planned activities this year just income. That'll leave us an ending fund balance of about $350,000 for items in fund 49. That's the proceeds of our debt borrowing. So in addition to the fund balance from the first 66 million we borrowed as well as um we will have their next that we're borrowing nutrition services. Um we did in a meal price increase for this year but our costs continue to grow. We are looking to stabilize those but currently are projecting a loss. And then lastly for service, um we are recommending a decrease to the lobby for this year to use up uh the fund balance that is currently sitting in there, but we would still offer all of the same programming, which is why the expenses putting that all
030together. This is a little bit different image than what we had in the annual meeting. It was in a chart format there. Um but hopefully this can uh different way to information. So we have the three different lobbies ago as last year and you see the proposed for this year and increase or decrease from this year to last year. Again this is the recommendation that came out of the annual meeting. the total levy just over 15 million which is about a 7% increase compared to last year. And then as far as miller rates columns, you can see that the recommendation would be a 717 miller rate which the same amount last year and I have this into tax certification just to be a true this year. Um, so with that, I can answer any questions.
031Otherwise, again, we're looking for two action items, >> questions or comments from board members? >> Have a question. Um, are you the amount of interest that we have received from our prior borrowing on the new referendum? It's part it's I I assume it's included in the in the revenue sources for that. >> You are correct. It's included. Um I would like to follow up with you after the meeting if you don't mind and I'll share that with you guys. Thank you. >> Okay. Yep. >> Yeah. there something that we uh just just got some shared information a little bit late. So I would have rather uh done this when we were recommending the mill rates to um [clears throat] just wanted to do something along the lines of the 14 mil rate that was presented
032along uh when we when we first passed our referendum in November. I just want to make sure we're doing everything with intent that we are using our I don't think I would be doing this unless if I knew that doing say before referendum for a successful referendum this spring just wanted to make sure uh making the best possible decisions now because successful we do decide to go to operating referendum up in April. So I just wanted my colleagues on that. >> Other comments from board members? >> Miss Hower, if we were to go with the 714 mil rate, how would that play out in the budget? We would have to make further reductions somewhere. And by how much? Because I know you know that formula. I just don't remember it. >> Yeah, that's a great
033question. So, it's roughly $20,000 to every one penny on the mill rate. So, to decrease by three cents would be $60,000, which at this budget would need to operating budget by $60,000. The wonder with that is um if we're going to the electorate in April saying we don't have enough money for operations but yet we underlevied this operations we're kind of contradicting ourselves. Um we talked through the scenario and that typically isn't something a district would do is under levy going to operating from the same year. >> I think this is a fairly responsible budget and we should just leave it as it is at 717. play devil's advocate a little bit to to both of you. Um I think when we did our original um referendum, we talked about being a threeprong program. It
034was it was a referendum from the community and using a portion of our savings. Um, can you tell me, do you remember, Leah, how much we talked about in the referendum using our our fund account, how much we actually talked about 2 million over the course of a couple years. We have um one and a half million set aside this year and this current budget has a $400,000 shortfall. Uh so I guess going back to the 60,000 that would be 60,0001 balance but we are my viewpoint using that three pound. >> I I don't disagree. I'm just saying that we're using it at a we're pulling the lever in a different we thought we were going to have to pull the lever and >> agree with Todd. We could do that. we could maintain the
035and still use less fund balance than we had actually communicated. Correct. >> Um that is correct but we will be under our limitation um which how that would come through is that we're not our full 750,000 of current operating referendum. So then if we just optically go and say we need at least 750,000 or more than 750,000 it could appear contradictory. >> I completely understand. Thank you. >> The way I look at it and sorry did anyone else want to go first? Um the way I look at it is that I the community knows that we have good expenses and that we are undered anyway. I mean that is been from the rooftop for many many years that the state budget is it's just not keeping up. So um I still don't hate that idea.
036I mean we budgeted to 8% increase in utilities. Maybe that's accurate but I remember pastures. We did that and I mean our word to the community I is something that we could manage. Um, so in the keeping the word to the community, I just want to make sure that we're clear that the we asked for 80 million talked about what the 13 rate would be which $39 if you so holding true to that. Just keep in mind when we talk for a facility referendum, we're only talking about the Miller rate and funding. If you think back to the September board meeting, we talked about levying,000, I would agree that that was what we originally talked questions or comments from members. I just I just know that I I got an inspector buddy that lives on
037Toma and like like they went to we remember years ago they operating four years ago and then that state budget came through and then they didn't pull their levers quite Right. So, a lot of people were mad that the mill rate didn't quite coincide with what they said because the thing was anticipated. I just think if what the language operates like the best way we communicate to the community. I I I want to best I want to make sure that our that we try our best to make sure that how we community is that the best possible and um that's why you know that every year I don't really think that the total levy or that matters as much mill rate because that's that's But that's rate that we charge taxpayers. That rate sides with
038the value that we that we give through a strong school district. So, you know, running the numbers like like we say three cents doesn't matter on the grand scheme of things, but terms of our communication does a lot. I just wanted [clears throat] you guys and see what we wanted to do tonight. So, Other questions or comments? >> Mr. Burns Gilbert. >> Thanks. Um, I definitely thought you were going to go the other direction, Todd. So, you threw me for a loop there. Thank you. Um, I was weighing coming in of if that still extending that conversation right now. But yeah, I can see value in both ways. three cents that connection also when we right like kind of forget when I said a version of this we've learned a lot since that conversation things
039have changed right um so I could go either way probably right calls my name difference um but I think overall I appreciate the reflect everything that we've done to this and then also So keeping in mind too struggling on the the underliving and asking for more peace based off something several years ago. Um knowing that we're still projecting to be million under coming up and that's in my mind operating referendum if we go that direction right is going to provide a lot more sustainability for a lot more people students staff than 53 cents is 60,000 at this so I would keep that going and I I can go either way on 717 or 714 right now, but appreciate the conversation and that keeping the community center all of this too. >> Thank you questions or
040comments? I would just have one more um maybe and I know as you mentioned we were under on our estimates we could also be way under way over as well. We were very fortunate. Part of the reason why we are in the position we're in with not using all fund balance with reductions and that sort of thing is our health. Very fortunate and we're working our best but our numbers aren't looking as good. Let's try that. There we go. Updated in the middle of a meeting. That's fantastic. AWS again. Um, blame them. So, but anyway, so we just have to be careful,000 may not be that much, but have a 15 insurance may need that $60,000 long. We are most likely going to be asking a referendum in April. We'll be discussing that in November.
041So that $60,000 may be compounded. So um as Leah said after talking with Eric and we agree with that we want a levy max keeping the mill rate equal. I understand perspective. Uh I'm just not sure about the the long-term longevity of you may be asking for 750. Why are you for 750? You only needed 680. So um I think 717 is our recommendation and that's based on the information that we have and the consultants that we have as >> other questions or comments a little bit. >> I have a couple things. Um I mean I so appreciate what Todd is doing. Um but I disagree that the total rate doesn't matter or the [clears throat] total amount living doesn't matter to the community as much as rate because I do know that there are
042those in the community will be saying increase property values given the new construction this is you know an increase in their taxes. Um, and stress with all respect when I heard heard you say love to the my heart just like stopped. That is exactly what our community thinks that we do that we just take as much as we possibly can from without ever giving it back. And if we're going to be going if we are going to be the referendum, we have got to walk that line so cautiously. And I've said this for years. Um I've said this for years. We have we have to give back to our community as much as they give to us. And not just in tax relief, but in quality programming and education for our kids and sustainable programming
043and trustworthy, transparent unbiased. Um I I if there's if there's any way that we would be able to absorb that in a $44 million budget, which I think we can, I think we should. Oh, I have a question. Would there be any type of penalty from the state for not or any type of penalty in general for not levying to the max? Um, so I'm going to take this in two parts. First, I just want to clarify what levying to the max means because it sounds more it sounds more horrible than maybe it is. Um, what that means is that we'reing the full revenue limit, 352, keeping in mind that levying that amount, we're still 421. So any dollar less than that that we were putting ourselves in, if that makes sense. the amount that
044we spend this year per student rolls forward to next year. So for example, this year um last year we were at 11,000 per student $325 student this year and we actually went a little higher than that to get that 1152. I believe I will I can confirm I believe that that 60,000 will reduce that amount that rolls into next year. In other words, our dollar amount per student would be less by whatever that equity, you know, a couple bucks a student or what have you. Basically, the decision tonight follow near certain, not 100%, but near um so I don't know if penalized is the right word, but it is a long-term effect. I just had a couple of things. I was asking questions. I was genuinely asking questions. I want to make sure that I'm
045thinking this through properly. Um I was also very surprised how with lower than what the surprised u I'm gonna argue slightly with what both of you said. I believe the levy is important. I believe the mill rate is important. But what I'm talking with with conversations I've I've had with the thing that is is the most ringing truth to me is take what you need, not what you want. 17 is still below what we need because we are negative in our [snorts] our budget.

You need a motion beyond that. >> You just put the dollar amount in the record which is 15,35,849. >> You said 15 million and whatever is is Yes. So we have a motion by Mr. McKenna for a 717 mil rate that corresponds to 15 million $35,849 just for >> original budget. We're going to do a separate one. >> Correct. Perfect.
