004you all right we'll move down to public comments hearing any comments from visitors regarding any agenda items all right moving down to administrator's report um two weeks ago on February 25th and 26th ad team was able to join me over two days at Northland Pines we attended the um Department of Justice safety training and it was excellent um it was a lot of sit and get which none of us are really used to but it was really good information to get it you know in in the present time um the first day was really focused on behavioral threat assessment models to really be able to understand where a student's disposition or or um mindset might be and how to go through the process as to identifying what the re level of risk is to the
005school um this is generally when you become aware of something that's been going on um our the SRO that were in the room were very familiar with it some counselors were but I thought it was really good it's very much I think what our current plan was based off of but it was good to have the training um and go through that and talk about what if scenarios the second day just joined me and it was um focused on the reunification should there be you know the worst day then something happens what the plan is and how you come back together um who is in charge because there's so many moving pieces I think the most important part that I gathered out of it is no matter how prepared you are every situation is going
006to be unique and different and you're going to have to be ready to roll with whatever that situation is is and we did a lot of thought and discussion such as well it probably shouldn't be the superintendent who's the point of information or the command leader because they're going to be really dealing a lot with the media with parent information which is really a good point because you know we just kind of automatically think all communication Jen and I talk and you know then it would go all through that but it's more important in that situation to probably have that contact with your parents um and then who is that going to be it ties in really nicely because we are working on updating our um emergency response plan which we did last year but
007you can never be prepared enough and I think that um this is something that's been foremost on my mind because I do believe there's a lot of questions out there still internally like um who does what like jeie manie used to say I I get the binder and I do this well now we have an in that role and what was good and probably appropriate 2 or 3 years ago may not be appropriate now so we're working on that I should say I'm working on that and going to be bringing it back to the team and then we'll be bringing it to you again um in the next month or two to look at that and do that update of our plan I would ask if any of the administrators there had anything they wanted
008to share in addition really good stuff you said the first day was a little long because it was all sit and hit the second day was more Hands-On going through situations mockup of model situations that was really helpful it was much more engaging for sure um yeah the first day was all about figuring out whether or not a threat is credible and what the level of risk is it's good stuff glad we went for sure glad it was up here we didn't have to travel far for it yeah that's the first time ever I believe that they brought it north of 29 um thanks to Scott Foster in Northland Pines for kind of beating that drum I believe for the last three years there was enough interest to get them up this way and there
009was they had it capped at 60 and the first day I'm certain they had all of 60 if not more and it wasn't just school officials it was your SRO it was um law enforcement um counselors um Health Department it was a really nice um coverage of the counties between Bas and Onida I would say um and I think a good takeaway is that the system that they're really promoting is SRP which is what we're using which is what uh according to Foster Scott Foster that a lot of the Vias County Schools United counties and Vias are working together now more right and uh it's it's looking like all of us schools are going to be in the same as SRP program which is super helpful I imagine for law enforcement um who's working with
010us and helping us so yeah so I just wanted to give you an update on that that that's foremost in our minds and it was good training and looking forward to moving that along did you guys have any other questions for me regarding that okay I'll tell you those law enforcement people are pretty funny they're the ones when we did role playing they were like if they got to be a parent they were not nice they were like hey I don't have time to wait for this I figured it was based maybe a little bit of experience but everyone of them are typ a it made it fun okay it's great thank you for that all right any other questions on that otherwise we'll move along to new business um April meeting dates um so
011our next regular meeting will be on April 16th at 6:00 pm. here in the boardroom at Three Lakes this is a regular scheduled meeting and there's um no changes to it and we don't have any additional meetings that we need at this point okay all right all right next item is Nexus facilities study update well we've had a lot of things going on um this past weekend the the large flyer dropped in the mail I'm hoping that you all got that the 11 by 17 um thanks to Jen for working so closely with Nexus and me to put our vision as to what we wanted it to be keep it simple but keep it informative rather than getting buried in so much that it's like you know I don't know what that is neat fact
012um yesterday and um actually on the weekend when um I was I did manage to get to church I've seen two different people carrying that around so I felt like hey that's neat because they're using it as a reference guide um then we also had our since we met last we had our Monday night meeting in Three Lakes um and that was very well received we had nice attendance we had several of our um population that maybe are the retired and brought great questions Financial questions I think they were it was a very positive Vibe even though there was you know some really wanting to know U Phil did a nice job addressing some of the facilities questions and we were able to talk about where we started from and how we got to that
013so you know don't be referring to things we talked about 2 and a half years ago this is the current and I felt like the people there really understood and were very supportive um last night we had the sugar camp meeting and we had a nice um group group there as well again very positive Kevin Mullen came up from beard and he joined us thinking that we might have some more questions directly related to finances after the flyer dropped um there was only a few and they were good um based on how we would finance and spread that out over you know the 20 21 year period I really thank everybody for stepping up especially Jen and Justin for taking the lead last night because I didn't know how much I could talk and I
014was like Justin you'll have this he can tell a good story so it went really well and um I just felt a very positive vibe again we had some Three Lakes people that came down asked questions but very supportive of the district um next week the referendum or to vote cred um credit card um postcard will be dropping in the mail um so that will be coming as the reminder because we're really getting close now we're under 3 weeks so that's going to go very quickly and then tomorrow night is going to be blue jay trivia night at the The Brew station so that should be a fun adventure and Jen do you have any update on that it's I think it'll be fun it'll be a good way to present information so yeah I
015I think too I've learned all sorts of weird stuff in the last I didn't know um we've taken some phone calls I have not gotten any emails recently I would say it's it's dropped to just about not getting them I I feel like our public is really well informed I I take that as the reason I'm not getting as much requests for why does this work or how does this work but when we think back on it it's it's been pretty intensive the last month or six weeks of getting that out and then the social media posts and I think those little snippet facts have been really helpful to keeping it in mind and and I think it's been really rewarding to watch the fruit of the community group unfold like as they they're able
016to share what they learned in the group with other community members that that has been nice to watch that was I I'll admit I doed the process at first but I see how well it worked that's what we have on that any other questions or anything else on that all right all right we're going to move on to considering the approval of personnel report of new hires and resignations this month we have two new hirings Patricia Manley is a volunteer track and field coach in Don meter as a volunteer assistant girls soccer coach and there are no retirements all right looking for a motion to approve I'll make a motion to approve the personal report has presented I'll second all right we have a motion by Josh and a second by Mitch all those in
017favor I I I I motion passes 4 Z thank you all right moving down to consider approval of revision to board policy 3233 specifically to graduation Pathways this is um the followup to last month's meeting when Justin spoke to you about um another alternative pathway for our students who are credit deficient to reach their graduation um diploma and we do have some students who could potentially benefit from this immediately um we did receive word just yesterday yesterday was it Justin that that was approved by was that by DPI yes that they have approved our program request um to bring it all up to to par we need to add a line to our current policy um that outlines what this addition is um being that this is not a brand new policy I do not
018believe we have to do two readings of it if we were creating a brand new policy then I would suggest suggest that we do but where we already have the approval and we're just revising what's already currently on the books you can go ahead and if you support this make that motion tonight um the language is included there um the main part being the addition of when the student has satisfactorily completed the requirements of an alternative Pathway to a high school diploma provided by the three L School District such as the Wisconsin GED option to program or a blend of GED equivalency assessments and high school course credits um I'd like to invite Justin to share any additional thoughts on just a little specific information about why it's worded the way it is or suggesting
019if be worded the way it is is an example oh let's just say hypothetically a student transfers here from a uh High School in the Milwaukee area comes here and is all good except has all of their science credits deficient uh what we could do then is only employ the GD option to battery of test for the science requirements and she's making or he are making all the other requirements based on the credits in our uh requirements as traditionally that we have for all the other departments so that's why that last little narrative is in there or rewarding is in there so that uh that particular student wouldn't need to do all of the GED option to tests which is a pretty extensive battery of tests but only the one where the student would be
020credit deficient when they come here and like I said last month we don't have a ton of severely credit deficient students that have been with us but we do have some who transferred in open and rolled in whatever moved to the area that are and that's those at this point in time those are the uh students are trying to uh have a light at the end of the tunnel for them great explanation any questions for me all right anything else on that otherwise I'll look for a motion to approve the revision of the board policy 3233 I'll make a motion to approve the revision to board policy 3233 specifically to graduation Pathways I'll second all right we have a motion by Michelle and a second by Josh all those in favor I I I motion
021passes 4 Z all right next on the agenda is consider approval of cisa shared services contract I bring this to you every spring um they have to finalize their budget by April 15th and the the um amount is very similar to what you saw last year what we do with we when we do the cesa projected budget and to what it actually turns out to be is often less than what you are seeing here but we always want to make sure that we are making um cesa aware that if we're looking for a specific teacher that's really hard to get like a um visual impaired teacher or a deaf in heart of hearing or anything of this nature we want to make sure that we have those Services accounted for because everybody is fighting over
022them um working with cisa has been very positive um I was reminded again um last week that this will be adjusted to your actual costs at the end of the year which makes me feel very com confident and then this gives both Caleb and cisa 9 the figures we need for projecting our budgeting um if you don't have specific questions to that I would ask that you would approve it tonight so I can get this to them for their Board Of Control meeting any questions for all right looking for a motion make a motion to approve the cea shared services contract for the 2024 2025 second okay we have a motion by Mitch and a second by Michelle all those in favor I I I motion passes 4 Z all right moving along to winter
023sports report yes ma'am um starting out with boys basketball this year we had 21 overall players uh Varsity consisted of 10 players uh we had an 11 and overall record and a six and4 record within the conference uh the team uh for regionals beat Tri County here at home in round one uh and then the second game round two we ended up losing to pachelli if any you were there it was pretty fantastic game we let it half time uh and you know we definitely had pachelli on the ropes Mike Tyson had a saying back in the day Everybody's Got A Plan until you get punched in the mouth if you watch Pell's kids walk off the floor but second half it's you know we had a lead and they they Whitted it away and
024ended up winning by three but it was a fantastic game uh just unbelievable game and and and George really had those kids ready to play uh just a real quick narrative from George it says we had a very difficult schedule this season but the kids were able to compete in every game uh against some very good schools um I think that uh there's a lot of positives throughout the season everyone learn that if you want to succeed you have to play hard with high level of effort um so he said' I try making the point to kids that succeeding in life is the same way nothing is given only earned I think all of the kids grew in maturity and responsibility throughout the year uh we graduate four seniors and we'll have some rebuilding to
025do next year but I'm optimistic that some summer league opportunities uh that we will be in uh will get us ready at the beginning of the Season I'm extremely proud of the team and uh and how they battled all year long we Face some adversity with illnesses and other issues and kids never lost hope or gave up uh great group of kids that I respect and very much uh am excited to work with them again next year George L All Conference uh we had two first teamers this year um that was East lby as a freshman uh and pton pitlick as a senior second team was Eli Ericson senior and honorable mention was Owen leaper 10th grade sophomore so uh overall a really good job with a pretty tough schedule they did have so uh
026JV for the boys uh we had 11 overall JV players their overall record was 16 and six moving on to girls basketball we had 19 overall players uh obviously you know we co-op with Phelps uh we had one Phelps or two Phelps players um and uh nine overall Varsity players we had a 10 and 14 overall record and a 2- six uh NLC Conference record regionals we received a forfeit from CR child in the first game because they had girl got hurt real bad on the Friday night before and they had a couple other kids quit so they were unable to play the game so we Advanced by forfeit and we ended up losing to pachelli in the semifinals that was a tough game so uh Rich's quick narrative it says we entered the season
027with an optimistic vision of improving from the previous season having three of five starters returning in addition uh of a transfer student Paige brafford uh was the goal to be a 500 season uh says unfortunately that wasn't the case uh and the team ended up with the same number of wins 10 and 14 several factors contributed to this outcome uh we played several tough teams uh but playing consistent team basketball for 36 minutes consistent individual performances shooting percentages and most laring statistic was turnovers uh though the coaching staff focused almost daily on the ball security and patience uh we were unable to reduce turnovers and acceptable number however in the games uh where those numbers were somewhat lower we either won those games or were very competitive throughout injuries also played a part as well
028losing Paige braford and Cassidy Williams to concussions for several games affected our strength on the court uh there were however several highlights during the season uh a come from behind win at tomahawk in overtime wins over Northland Pines ketz melon and Sturgeon Bay scoring a team High 70 points the team team is um the team in most games played exceptional defense and uh out rebound pointed almost every game Rich ja for girls all conference we had a first teamer Haley Baro second Team all conference Paige braford and honorable mention Malia Zeus as a freshman pretty impressive um JV we had 10 JV players uh and obviously JV from Varsity depending on the week that did fluctuate some but they were 10 solid JB players their overall record was an impressive 19 and one so uh
029mostly freshman girls on that JB as we move forward we're going to have some pretty strong folks coming up so and and that's without uh Malia and without uh a couple other students that are just fantastic kids over playing varsity ball so good things to come there and lastly uh wrestling uh obviously Varsity co-op with leino they had 15 overall wrestlers and one from Three Lakes uh 12-4 overall dual record which is pretty impressive uh the team finished 14th in The Holiday Tournament out of 75 teams uh they sent six wrestlers to sectionals this year and sent two to State and Regan Roy was a state champion as you can see so that's pretty impressive and uh I will note that uh in our Junior High we had eight wrestlers coming up this year U
030that stuck with it throughout the year so I'm hopeful that through time um maybe we can get our own program back again but right now it's it's going to see how that if those kids continue to stay out and continue to be part of that program uh hockey uh we had a couple students in that I didn't get a report from Legas over at he never sent anything my way but I know that uh Ryan Lander had a rough time in hockey this year um but uh as a freshman we had we had a freshman boy do really well it's the playing boy uh when he planes boy uh he stuck it out he had a rough start but ended up finishing pretty strong so um so that is the report so if anyone has
031questions please thank you Phil great yes thank you great report all right no further questions we'll move along to um the school Forest Camp 3 update report uh the only thing I have to report on is that the summary judgment hearing has been scheduled for May 15th 2025 at 2:00 p.m. in brand one courtroom um of WIA County Courthouse so that is on the docket and we will be planning to attend that as it is help any questions on that all right hearing none we'll move along to District related positive happenings we l Elementary had their spelling be last week um we had the fourth grader Thomas Barry was the winner pretty most excited kid I've seen in for a while a d o took second place and Malachi Wan was third so to have
