Do you want me just to read or you want to You got >> You want to give an introduction? >> So, um, this is a letter that we read last year. We've decided to read uh annually um that from from the school board, the district to the community. Dear Solo Unified School District community, as partners in the education

014and well-being of our students, the Solo Unified School District governing board is deeply committed to fostering a positive, respectful, and professional environment for everyone within our schools. Our shared goal is to create a supportive atmosphere where students, staff, and families can work together for the success of our children. We recognize that open communication and collaboration between the school and the community are essential. However, it is equally important that all interactions, whether in person, via email, text messages, or over the phone, are conducted with respect and professionalism. Expectations for conduct. Professionalism. All communications and interactions with school staff should be courteous, constructive, and focused on solutions. Unprofessional behavior such as disrespectful language, personal attacks, or aggressive conduct is not acceptable. Respect. We expect all members of our school community to treat each other with dignity and

015respect. This includes refraining from argumentative or confrontational behavior which can undermine the positive environment we strive to maintain. Zero tolerance for harassment. Harassment of any kind towards school staff, students, or other community members will not be tolerated. This includes any behavior that could be considered intimidating, threatening, or unwelcoming. Athletics. We invite our community while attending athletic events to refrain from vulgar interactions between other fans, coaches, referees, and visiting teams. We are counting on all community members to remain respectful and positive while cheering on our student athletes. Belligerent, distracting, or vulgar behavior is not acceptable. Consequences. Any behavior that is deemed unprofessional, argumentative, or harassing may lead to disciplinary disciplinary action, which could include restricted access to school property, involvement of law enforcement, or other measures as necessary to protect the integrity of our educational environment.

016Individuals who disturb the familyfriendly environment of our athletic events may be removed and face disciplinary action which may include being banned from future school events. Staff recourses to the Solo Unified School District staff. Should you ever be the victim of any of the behaviors listed above or be marginalized by a member of the community, please make a report with your immediate supervisor of the incident. Moving forward, you, your supervisor, and the superintendent will work collaboratively in addressing the misconduct. You are a valuable member of this district, and you are not expected to tolerate any misconduct from community members for any reason. We ask for your continued cooperation and commitment to these standards as we work together to create a positive and respectful school community. Our mutual respect and professionalism are vital to ensuring that our

017schools remain a place where everyone feels welcomed, valued, and supported. Thank you for your understanding and partnership in this important matter. Sincerely, Sher Unified School District Governing Board. Item 5.3, first read of model policy update, Mr. Farnsworth. So every year after the state legislature uh concludes their their legislative session, we get policy updates from the trust who does our policy. And this is the first reading. There is no action. Uh I have sent this to legal and and been communicating with our attorney Denise Lulbrit and she says everything's standard. Looks good. There's no concerns on the legal side. And so I just want you to be aware of these policies that we'll be bringing next month for formal adoption unless you have any discussion at this time. >> Anybody have anything? >> No. No. >>

018Okay. Thank you. Item 5.4 principal reports. >> Just want to say I'm sorry. I just want to say thank you to the principles. the start of the year is always very hectic and they put in a lot of hours and so I just want to thank them for for putting in their reports and all the great stuff that they've done. >> I too want to thank you because I know this is just like one more thing on top of everything else. So, thank you for taking the time and keeping us updated. We appreciate you. >> Agreed. Item 5.5, superintendent report. Just a couple of highlights. Uh, Mr. President, want to thank you for coming to new teacher uh, induction. I think we got a great crop of teachers and thank you for saying your remarks.

019I also want to thank Kelly and Stacy for being to our welcome back assembly and staying throughout and I hope it was enjoyable for you to see see everyone and to hear our speaker. Um, we've had our 100% meeting with the school facilities board and engineers for new HVAC units for Whipple. Um, so it's in the pipeline. We feel encouraged like this should be um funded by the state, but you never know, but we feel like it should be funded for next summer to get all new air conditioning units. Um, transportation has done a lot of hard heavy lifting over the summer, starting a brand new uh, pilot, if you will, with bus riders having these these ID badges that help parents know where they are on on their routes, pick up and drop off.

020Um, we've had some kinks, but I think for the most part, they've been worked out. Is there an app that the parents >> There's an app a parent the parents can download and so kids scan the the reader when they get on and get off and they can see the bus route and and see where the the kids are at all times. So we're we're excited for that. Um if you look at the second page of my report for upcoming events as as you can see there we have the ASBA law conference September 3rd through the 5th. We have Constitution Week coming up and I know the principles are are all communicating with their campuses about that. And so those are some of the highlights from um from this past month. >> Okay. >> Item

0216.1, classified resignations, terminations, and transfers. Mr. Forth, >> we would ask that you would approve the recommendations. Um and happy to entertain any questions. I move to approve the classified employment actions as presented. A >> second. >> I have a motion second. All in favor? >> I >> opposed. Motion passes. Item 6.2. I want to point out that um there was a gentleman Erin Rodriguez I believe it is um who accepted a position with us and then has since um since we've made the agenda has since resigned that position. So um I'll entertain a motion minus uh Aaron Rodriguez please. I move to approve as presented and as clarified by Mr. Larson. A second. >> I have a motion second. All in favor? >> I opposed. Motion passes 6.4 certified personnel and employment. >> Um

022it's pretty straightforward. If you look into the executive content, um there's a teacher that resigned um unfortunately. And then we've been informed that they took a job in a nearby school district while they have not been officially released from their contract with Xolo Unified School District. Um there's not much we can do about that since they're no longer an employee. Um but I just wanted you to have the facts regarding that employee. Um and that's deeply frowned upon. >> So if we don't accept her resignation, isn't she still an employee? She would still be an employee. >> Wouldn't that be fun to ride that? >> That would be an interesting phone call to the other superintendent to explain, wouldn't it? >> You want to make that phone call? >> I don't. >> Curious. Okay. >>

023Don't. >> All right. I'm just asking questions. >> I actually believe that that could be conveyed to the State Department. >> It absolutely can. >> Yeah. >> It's not ethical for sure. I move to approve the certified employment actions as presented. >> A second. >> Motion a second. All in favor? >> I opposed. >> Motion passes. 6.5. Coaches and athletics stipens 2526. Dr. Farnsworth. >> 6. >> I think we're in 6.4. >> Oh, I'm sorry. I marked the wrong one off. I apologize. 6.4. certified personnel employment. >> I would I would ask that you would um take the recommendation for these for these hirings and extra duty stipens. >> I move to approve all the certified employee changes as presented by the administration. >> Second. >> Motion a second. All in favor? >> I opposed.

024Motion passes. Now we're at 65. Dr. Farnsworth, >> we we are just presenting the athletic stipens with the the coaching suggestions and ask that you would approve those. >> I move to approve the changes for the coaches and athletic stipens for fiscal year 2526 as presented. >> Second. >> I have a motion to second any discussion. All in favor? >> I >> opposed. I'm opposed as presented. 6.6 second reading of model policies and procedures. Dr. Farnworth. >> So this is our second reading of these three policies and I would ask that the board if if you're good with the changes that are highlighted in the policies that we adopt these and then I would I would send us off to the trust to make it formalized with the corrected changes that that we're proposing. I

025move to approve the model policies and procedures 5-217 5-217A 5-217B is presented. I'll >> second. >> I have a motion and a second. Any discussion? All in favor? >> I opposed. Motion passes. Item 6.7 legacy learning. So we we entered thisou last year and so we're asking the board to renew thisou and in the information that I've been given we actually have one student that is being serviced which is services that we are not able to provide due to the technical nature and so we would ask that you would approve thisou so that we could continue servicing this student at legacy learning. >> I move to approve the legacy learning as presented. Second. >> I have a motion in a second. Uh Dr. Far, will you tell us whatouou means? >> Memorandum of understanding. It's

026a Yeah. >> Okay. All in favor? >> I >> opposed. Motion passes. 6.8 audit engagement services with DRS CPA. Miss Davis. So, >> this is our audit firm um who does our audit. This is the third year of a three-year contract with um DRSCPA firm. Um so this is for the fisc year 2425 audit. And like I said, this is year three of a three-year contract. So after this year, we will be going out to bid for audit services for next years. >> Are we happy with the work they've done so far? >> Yes. I move to approve DRS CPAP LLC as the auditors for the fiscal year 2425 auditors. >> Second >> motion in a second. Any further discussion? All in favor? >> I >> opposed. Motion passes 6.9 Solo High School Studio Art

027Club. Miss Davis, >> this is a a new club uh that they're asking to have at the high school. the Xolo High School Studio Art Club, which they'll go by um um SLHs SAC as a short. Um this is with Mr. KD. Um so it's a great uh club that uh we think will be a great addition to the high school. So we ask that you approve this new club. >> I'll make a motion to approve the new Shello High School student club studio art club. >> I second. >> Oh, I'm sorry. I second. I have a motion in a second. Uh I don't know if everybody saw the list of the kids that have already signed up. >> Yeah, >> but it was a lot. >> It's cool. >> Yeah. Really awesome. Uh I'm

028excited about that one. All in favor? >> I >> opposed. Motion passes. 610 food service bad debt write off. Miss Davis. So, if you remember um I've talked to you in the past in the last couple meetings that we had an audit with AD for food service and part of that corrective action with the audit was that we have to do a bad debt write off every year for seniors and for um those students that are no longer uh students of Xolo. And so this is um and the board has to approve those bad debts. So the first one is for um the seniors which is $6555 and that is for fiscal year 24 and 25. So that was the bad debt which is not bad $65. Um the second uh list is for the

029inactive students. Again that's through 20 that's 24 and 25 um which is $4,39.40. Um we do now have a new with our new director, she's put in a new program that she is now sending out letters once a week to um parents. So hopefully that bad that bad debt will be a lot less at the end of every year. And that does have to be paid that cannot be paid out of uh food service and nor can it be paid out of M. So it has to come from one of our other cash accounts. So, we usually take it out of our community service uh fund, which unfortunately a lot of that money comes from either uh facility rentals or unfortunately um part of uh the athletic camp fees. >> I I would like to

030point out um it's very hard to capture food service debt because it's not the kids' fault, right? Um, but I do want to thank our business office or our food service office. There was a full page ad. I don't know if you saw it in the latest newspaper publication saying shovel public schools food service, free and reduced lunch. It was an entire full page outlining to parents how they could go and apply for free or reduced meals, uh, how to navigate the application process, what are the minimum requirements in terms of your annual income. Um, so I was super impressed to see that full page newspaper ad trying to reach all of our community um to try to get those those numbers >> that that also was part of our audit corrective action >> um

031because we have not been doing that as far as I understand and so that was something we did and we we ran that we're running that for a whole month. >> Great. >> It was a whole page. >> Yeah, >> it's awesome. Can we do something like on our um Facebook and social media accounts to where somebody could open that up any time during the year like you know say parents come in move into the area and maybe don't know you know how to go about seeking out those services so that way we can make sure we're reaching everybody throughout the year you know and I would love to see that made available. >> Great. and you know and then every once in a while maybe even share it on Facebook cuz I try to

032be you know cognizant and share everything I can that we put on and stuff. So maybe if we could do it a few times during the year that would be probably be helpful for the moveins >> and such because I never want to see our kids not being fed you know. So I move to approve the bad debt and take care of it and move forward with it. >> I'll second. Motion and second. All in favor? >> I opposed. Motion passes. 6.11 lead counselor stipent. >> So last year um the governing board approved the lead uh counselor stipen as part of the general stipens. Um but I neglected to put that on when we approved the general stipens this year. So, this is just ratifying that, adding that to the general stipen list um for

033this year and then it will be on every year after that. >> I move to approve the amended general stipen list for fiscal year 2526 to include the high school lead counselor stipen as presented. >> Second. >> Motion second. All in favor? >> I opposed. Motion passes. 6.12 Soul Source Vander Miss Davis. So, as you know, um the governing board has to approve all soul source vendors. Um this is um a soul source vendor that we have for our WI school. Um and she we used her last year. Um this is paid out of a grant. So, this is not coming out of M. Um but this is a sole source. She is the only one that provides this coun uh consulting service to WI. Um so we ask the board to approve this soul

034source vendor. >> I move to approve um to approve soul source vendors as a submitted. >> Second >> motion second. All in favor? >> I opposed. Motion passes. 6.13 school properties disposal. Miss Davis. >> All right. So um every month we bring these to you. Um we're the schools are going through stuff and starting to clean out uh a lot of stuff. So uh the high school we had some keyboards. The grounds had a top dresser. Not exactly sure what that is, but I think it's part of the mo a mowing machine or mower. Um the Whipple Ranch, we had a pizza oven in the kitchen. And in transportation, these are some bigger items. We have the old cougar bus >> being retired. >> Green one. So, um, yep, the big green one. So, that's

035going up for auction. And then we have, um, three vehicles. Um, a truck and a a truck and a a car, I think. >> Couple trucks. That's right. So, these will all this stuff will be going up for auction. >> You spent a many a long night in that cougar bus. >> Did you? >> Wow. >> How old is that thing? Gosh. >> Mike Sean. 2009. Is that what it is? >> Yeah, it's a 2009. So >> 2009. Oh my good. >> A great antique for someone. >> Wow. Crazy. >> 2009 does not qualify as an >> for a cougar bus. That's an antique. >> We should We should keep it, park it out front and use it for advertising. >> If it doesn't sell, that might be a good idea. >> No, it'll sell.

036I move to approve the list as presented. >> Second >> motion and second. All in favor? >> I opposed. Motion passes 6.14 transportation bus pass replacement card. Dr. Farnmore. >> So the as as I said in my report, the transportation department has initiated a brand new program. We've given ID badges for every kid. Um, and we already know kids have already lost theirs and we've replaced them. Um, so that's unsustainable. So, we're asking the board moving forward that if if a kid student loses their bus pass, we're still going to let them on the bus even if they don't have a bus pass. But we would ask that the board approve a nominal fee of $5 to replace it. Um, this is in line with what we're doing at the junior high for their student

037ID badges. if a if they lose their ID badge at the junior high, we're asking for a $5 replacement. So, we feel that's reasonable. It's it's in line with what we're already doing. Um, so I would ask the board to approve that uh moving forward. >> I'll make a motion then to approve the $5 replacement fee for the transportation passes as presented. >> Second. >> Motion is second. All in favor? >> I opposed. Motion passes 6.15. Student fundraising activity. Dr. Farner, >> I really want to thank the junior high student council. They're they're on the ball. They've submitted 1 2 3 4 5 6 seven different fundraisers. Um so movie nights with concessions September the 1st through through the whole year. Uh boograms uh for Halloween. Uh Halloween dance. Uh, gobble gram. I guess we

038love the grams a lot. Uh, gobble gram for Thanksgiving, holiday dance in December, crush for your crush, uh, February or yeah, February 2nd through February 12th, and then a Valentine's Day dance. I would ask that the board approve those fundraising activities. >> I move to approve all fundraising activities as presented. >> I'll second. >> Motion, second. All in favor? I I >> opposed. Motion passes. Item 6.16, gifts and donations. >> Again, we we've got great business partners in this community and just want to thank uh Safeway, Step Propane, Cattleman's for their donations to the CTE culinary uh program. Uh we also have Matt and Chris Jones uh donating some barbecue grills. So that's for the facilities and warehouse department. So I I think those are going to be well used and just want to thank

039all of our business partners for for donating. >> Absolutely. >> I move to approve the donations with a big thank you as presented. >> Second. >> I have a motion to second. >> With gratitude, all in favor? >> I opposed. Motion passes 6.17. Consider regular October. I knew there was something about October in this. Consider regular October board meeting date. >> So per per usual, the October meeting date is over fall break. Um if it's appropriate with with the board, we'd recommend either doing it the week before or the week after. >> I do not know how I'm not turning it off. I thought I turned it off. Sorry. I apologize. It's a new phone. >> It may be important. >> It's too smart for me. >> Sorry. Okay. >> Going ahead. I'm sorry. >>

040So, um, for me, >> Yes, sir. >> Uh, October 2nd might be difficult. I'm in the valley for training >> all day. Uh, I'm guessing it's going to go till 5 or 6, which >> not allow me to get back, which is fine if y'all want to do it that day without me. That works, too. >> Does the rest of the board have a preference? Either the second or the 16th? >> The first week's better for me, but I can call in if you need me to. >> Okay. So, the fir So, you're saying the second works best for you? What about you, Kelly? >> Well, the second works best for me because I'm flying out on the 5th and I'll be gone for a week. Okay. >> So, um, yeah. >> So, second, Paul,

041how how do you feel about the second? >> I'm hunting somewhere then. >> The second might be the best. >> Okay. Do I hear that the second is what we'd like to go towards >> or I could call in on the 16th if you would like me to do that. So, >> whatever you have to >> would like to do. I'd call in. >> No, let's just do the second and then I'll if I can call in, I'll call in. If I can't, I can. >> Okay.
