001We'll do the pledge of allegiance and a moment of silence first. >> Stand of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. All right. Thank you. >> Too far. >> Okay, we got uh matters from the floor. Uh, do we have any speakers lined up for tonight? One. Um, yes. Miss Tab, is that correct? If you want to come forward >> and uh you state your name and your address and then you'll have three minutes um to voice your concern. Thank you. Lola Tab, 25 Melissa Lane, Lynchburg, Virginia 24502. Um, I'm coming tonight because of my children um, education at Brookville Middle School. We were new to the county last year and I've been going through the same process
002with the school. Um, no teachers communicating, reaching out about grades or missing work. and I've been fighting back and forth and no no help. I finally reached out to the administrative office a couple of weeks ago and we've been having a couple of meetings. Um but the teachers are not fulfilling their duties as teachers for our students as with the education. I I have no um communication with them. They don't reach out. They're failing my children. Well, children in general. I don't know any how many other children, but this is is it's unfair and no child should be left behind. So I also I had a meeting with the school today um which this is my second meeting which of all so many that I've had already um where I've I asked them about the
003accountability of the teachers and how they were um you know I guess uh graded or evaluated and they told me that it would takes it takes where they get evaluated every three years. Okay. But is that enough for our children? How do we help them in the process? Um my children are in classes that they don't get study guides. They don't have a book. So how do how do they study? How do they study for tests? Um I'm reaching out to teachers. I get like I said um no communication or either they give me something but they don't give me all the information. So how are my children are to complete their work if they still have things that are missing? I mean, it it needs to be better. And I've been fighting for this
004for the last two years. I'm new to Campbell County and um I've never my children have never had to deal with anything like this before, ever. And it's sad. And I'm very upset. And I that school sees me regularly almost every day because like I said, I'm fighting for my children. I want their work to be turned in. I want them to be able to learn like everybody else. but they can't if they're not given all the tools to learn and that the teachers are not dedicated enough to to make sure that they get what they need. So that's all that I have to say. >> All right. Well, thanks for coming out and sharing this evening and sir we'll >> talk about it with administration and be back in touch. So >> I appreciate
005it. >> Thank you, ma'am. >> Yes, sir. >> Yep. Um, >> I think so. I'm not sure. >> Have you got approval of the February 9th meeting minutes? Need a motion to approve? >> Motion. >> Second. >> Motion and a second. Any comment on the meeting minutes? >> Not. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Any opposed? And none. Motion passes. And then we also have the approval of the January 13, 2026 joint board meeting minutes. Need a motion in a second. >> Motion. >> Second. Okay. Any discussion? Any comments, concerns? >> Just thought it was a good meeting and I'm glad that we get together. >> All right. Thank you, Mr. Maddox. Any others? Okay. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Those opposed. Hearing none. Motion carries. Got uh
006payment of the bills. Anyone that's reviewed and make a motion on payment of the bills? >> That's no bear, is it? Mr. Chairman, I reviewed the bills and make a motion that we approve them as presented. Got a second. >> Second. >> A motion to second. Any comments, concerns in regard to the bills? >> Hearing none. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Those opposed. And motion carries. Acceptance of donations. Miss McClanahan. >> Tonight you have a list of donations for approval. Unless you have any questions on those, I ask that you approve them as presented. >> Motion. >> Second. >> All right. Motion to second. Any comment, concerns in regards to donations? >> One comment I have is thank you. Thank you to all of um our county businesses that are stepping
007up and and helping our schools. Much appreciated. >> Thank you, Mr. Beerman. Anybody else? Okay. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> All those opposed. Hearing none. Carries. Uh, consideration for non-resident tuition. Miss McClanahan. >> Tonight, you have a list of students for approval as non-resident. Unless you have any questions, I'd ask that you approve that as presented. >> Motion. >> Second. >> I got a motion to second. Any concerns, comments? All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Those opposed. Okay. Motion carries. Also have consideration of supplemental aortionments. Miss McClennan. >> You have two for approval tonight. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them. Otherwise, I request approval. >> Move for approval. Mr. Chairman. >> Second. A motion to second. Any comments, concerns about the appropriations, hearing?
008None. All those in favor say I. >> Those opposed. >> Okay. Motion carries. Cut the consideration of personnel report. Miss Hun. >> Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Members of the board, you have a somewhat lengthy personnel report in front of you this evening. Our principles are busy hiring for next year. We have hired about 15 people already for next school year. Around eight of those came from our job fair. So, we're still moving on those. And then we still have about 25 openings for next year. So, they're still working, but they have done a number of hires already for next year. So, unless you have any questions, I'd ask that you approve it as written. >> Dr. Ronaldo, >> how we doing on bus drivers? >> Sir, uh we are paid fulltime parts. Got a couple
009that are getting ready to leave us for various reasons. >> Do you have a class coming up or >> we just finished a class? Uh we finished a class. We got snow. So probably about three weeks ago, sir. We finished a class and in that class we had three people that were aids of ours that are in the process of CDL. >> Good. Thank you. >> Nice. I also wanted to repoint out and um for Mr. Pierman's benefit, the the teachers on the personnel report with asterisks by their names are our Campbell County graduates. So there are four on there as well. >> Thank you for that. >> All right. Um get a motion and a second on personnel report if we don't have any other discussion. >> Motion to approve. Second. >> Okay, the
010motion is second. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Those opposed. >> Okay, motion carries. Thank you, Miss Hman. >> Thank you. And now that it's official, I did want to point out that Mr. Bobby Marky is in the audience. He was just approved to become the new assistant principal at Brookville High School. It's very excited. [applause] Mr. Marky has been with us for a long time and certainly exudes Brookful pride. So, we're excited to have him. >> And you wore the right color shirt tonight, so it's great. [laughter] >> Dress. >> Congratulations. All right, we got the consideration of special education annual plan. Dr. McCormack. >> Good evening, Mr. Chairman, Dr. Stanley, members of the board. I'm here this evening to present to you the special education annual plan application for funding
011which you have attached in your board docs. It's not working. There we go. There we go. >> So, the purpose of the special education annual plan is to asssure that all children with disabilities have available to them a free appropriate public education. The application actually serves as a formal agreement between our school division and the department of education to implement regulations governing special education services. The plan is a three-part series. The first part includes presentation to our special education advisory committee. This was completed at our February 9th SEAK meeting. The next component is submitting this for your approval. And then finally, once it's approved by the board, we will submit it to the Virginia Department of Education for approval. Upon their approval, award amounts are released to us, which would be anticipated sometime this summer.
012To give you a reference point of how our funds are calculated, this is our December 1 snapshot. Based on the data, we are serving 1,268 students with disabilities. This is approximately 21 more students than we served the previous year. In breaking the numbers down a bit more, this allows you to see the disability categories and the number of students that we serve in each disability category. As you can continue to see, we see growth in the categories of OI or other health impairment, autism represented by AUT, and speech language impairment represented on the chart by SLI. The annual plan is actually made up of eight different sections. I will go through each of these sections to explain what those are. The first section is an asurances section. Campbell County must certify that we do not
013have any barriers that would impact the implementation of special education programs. It seeks to ensure full participation of students, teachers, and other program beneficiaries with special needs in designing the federally assisted projects or activities. In ensuring that we do not have these barriers, we have to examine our mission and vision, which aligns with us not having barriers. Our mission is to enable every student to choose and pursue any postk12 endeavor. The next section is our special education and local and regional jails. We do have a facility in our division and so we are required to complete this section of the application. Individuals who are students from age 18 to 22 with a disability who have not graduated with a standard diploma and are detained for more than 10 days in this facility are eligible to
014receive services from us. The third section is the implementation of the previous year's plan. Our previous year's plan was implemented with fidelity and used to pay salary and benefits for special education staff. The fourth section is what is called maintenance of effort. Maintenance of effort requires that the division spend at least the same amount in local or local and state funds as the previous year for students with disabilities. The first section of this is making sure that we are budgeting to meet maintenance of effort and I have worked with our finance department to ensure that we are budgeting for this. Our budget of total local and state expenditures for the 2627 year is projected to be around $14.6 million. The fifth section is comprehensive coordinated early intervening services or CCIS. And what this is is
015a requirement that if we are showing disproportionality, we then have to set aside 15% of our federal funds to try to address this. At this time, Campbell County is not required to set aside this 15% of funds as we are not disproportionate. The sixth section is the proportionate set aside. This funding requires Campbell County to set aside funding based on the numbers of parentally placed private school students along with homeschooled students who are identified with disabilities under IDA. Our projected set aside amount for the upcoming school year is $96,000. The final two components of the application are the components where you will see funding amounts attached to them. Section 611 are flow through federal funds to be used for school-aged programs for students identified as having a disability. These funds are used to pay salaries
016and benefits for 20 full-time special education teachers, two specialists, and six special education teaching assistants. The 619 funds are used to help fund special education preschool programs in Campbell County. These are known as our early childhood special education programs or ECSE. Campbell County uses these funds to pay for one full-time early childhood special education teacher. It is important to note that the amount that we receive for this does not cover the full salary and benefits of this teacher and therefore we're required to use local or state funds to pay the remainder of her salary and benefits. This slide simply gives you an overview of our funding. Section 619 remained consistent while there was a slight drop in section 611 funding. As a reminder, it's important to remember that this plan application is only addressing our
017federal funding. Local and state funds are also used to meet the required needs of our students with disabilities attending Campbell County Public Schools. And again, maintenance of effort requires us to spend at least as much in state and local funds as we did in the previous school year. To end on a positive note, I would like to highlight the work of our students, their families, our teachers, related service providers, and administration. For our overall local determination on our annual performance report, Campbell County School received 36 of 40 possible points. This gave us the local determination of meets requirement, which is the highest rating in this standard. And so I'm very proud of all of the hard work that all of our students, teachers, and their families are continuing to do. I'm happy to answer any
018questions that you might have regarding the plan, but I would ask that you approve it as presented. >> Well, it sounds like you guys have did an outstanding job and meets the requirements is somewhat antilimactic, but it's >> it is, but we'll take it. >> It sounds [snorts] like you're just kind of mundane, but that's great. Uh um >> any questions for Dr. McCormack in relation to the report? [clears throat] >> Do we have a lot of kids in jail? >> No, not presently. >> I mean, over the past three or four years, >> not over the past three years. If you go back about five years, we serve several students per year, but not in the past three years. >> Okay. Thank you. >> Any others? All right, Dr. McCormack. Um, so we've got
019the report. All those in fa or got to take a motion first. Can I get a motion to approve? >> Motion. >> Second. >> I've got a motion and a second. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Those opposed. >> Okay. Motion carries. >> Thank you. >> Okay. Consideration of religious exemptions. Dr. Wilson. >> Uh, good evening, Mr. Chairman, Dr. Stanley, members of the board. We have one request for religious exemption for your consideration this evening. If there are no questions, I would ask that you approve it as presented. >> Motion second. >> Motion to second. Any questions, concerns? Okay. All those in favor say I. I. >> Those opposed. All right. Motion carries. Thank you, Dr. Wilson. All right, Dr. Stanley, you're up for consideration for authorization of superintendent to signed easements.
020>> Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Uh, about a week ago, I had a representative from VOTE approach me um about a project over in the Brookville area um which is exciting. I think everybody I've talked to said this has been a long time coming. Um, I've given you an aerial photo of um, the area and what VOTE is looking to do is add a sidewalk um, at the top of your page there. You can see it's kind of at the top of the of on the high side or the far side on Laxton Road and it will go from Timberlake Road all the way down to Winhurst which again is very nice. You can also see that there will be a crosswalk at the intersection of B Drive and Laxton Road. Um, and there'll be a
021also a crosswalk crossing B Drive. Um, which will have pedestrian lights. Um, and then the sidewalk will come all the way down in front of Brookville Middle School pretty much down to the to a point in front of Tomahawk. So, we're very excited about the the sidewalks. Again, we think they're needed. Um, part of their request to us is for some easements. They've got approximately four temporary easements that they're requesting that would just be used during this con construction phase. And then they've got three permanent easements that they would like for us to grant that would give them the ability to maintain the slope of the banks there um and drainage off the sidewalks. Um I've I've shared the contract with um Mr. Hawkins. He said it is a typical VOTE easement contract. He said,
022"As long as it doesn't impact your operations or uh impact the value of your property, which none of this does. Matter of fact, the sidewalks would probably look better aesthetically and uh increase the value. So, tonight I'm looking for your permission to move forward with the with these easements. Um they do we do have three trees that are on B drive. Um you see one up near the softball field and two that are right in front of the school. those trees would have to be taken down. Um, and then there's a section of fence that's up on Laxton um that they would probably take down while they're doing the work. Um, in return for the easements, they're offering us um $16,000 a little more. >> Can you point out the maybe difficulty permanent easement? >>
023Yep. I might have two. >> Would be easier on the one behind. >> Um maybe so. So So the permanent easements would be the one I guess that's in a in a in a brighter yellowish. That would be one permanent easement here. There would be one long permanent easement right along the sidewalk going down B drive. And then this would be a permanent easement. This is a bank uh that slopes down. And that's why they would like to have that so they can maintain that bank and make sure they have appropriate drainage. These in a orangey color, darker color would all be temporary, only used during construction phase. Okay. They're estimating work beginning in the summer of 27 um and continuing for approximately a year. Um, obviously they don't want to interfere with school, so
024a lot of that work in front of the uh Brooklyn Middle School will take place during the summer. Um, again, they don't want to interfere with our operations, but there will be a lot of construction out there. Um, however, I think our Brookville community is getting used to it and uh used to being patient and the crosswalk light. So that'll be tied into the existing traffic lights. I just uh want to make sure. >> Correct. So kids will be able to go up and and have the button to push. Um and it should make for a much safer crossing for them. >> And you've got two up top and there's one at the bottom there as well. Is that right? Or >> in terms of crosswalks? Yes, sir. But there's only two of the pedestrian
025lights going on uh going in up near Laxton and B Drive. >> So the bottom is just a cross. That's right. >> Yes. Okay. Right. >> Well, you don't know the total value of this project, do you? >> I do not. >> I guess they ain't put it up for bid yet. >> All right. Thank you. >> So, tonight I'm looking for your authorization to to move forward. >> All right. Anybody else have any questions for Dr. Stanley in regards to the easement sidewalk? on safety. >> There's no place where the sidewalks on both sides of the road. Is that correct? >> Correct. >> Mr. Maddox, you have something. >> I just said, how can you turn down >> safety? I mean, it's >> Yeah, >> it's a great plan. >> All right. I ask
026for a motion and a second. >> Motion to approve. >> Second. >> All those in favor? >> I and those opposed. Thank you. Okay, motion carries. Thank you. >> We got uh weapons detection, Dr. Ranella. >> Yes, sir. [sighs] >> Thank you. Thanks, sir. >> Welcome. >> Thank you. >> All right. Good evening, Mr. Chairman, Dr. Stanley, members of the board. I'm here tonight to share some information with you regarding the homework that we have done regarding weapons detection systems and how that could possibly impact the school division. Uh I think it's imperative to continue the narrative that Campbell County has safe schools and we will continue to have safe schools. Uh but we also know that uh school security and school student safety is an ever evolving uh topic and so we looked into
027what the potential of uh what that would look like to have weapons detection systems within our division. you know, whether it's the Department of Homeland Security, the National Association of School Resource Officers, they all recommend that having a layered security strategy to your schools is the best option. And we have that. So before I dive into some of the research that we have done, I think it's important also to articulate what do we have in place here already that keeps our students and our uh staff safe. First and foremost, our SRO's. uh you look at any sort of research that is out there, one of the main deterrents or one of the main benefits or of having SRO is they keep the school community safe. Um is without a doubt, Captain Lawhorn, uh Lieutenant were
028at our senior staff this morning. We were talking about and debriefing on our drills. We were talking about tornado systems and and and what do we do when the when these emergencies come up? So, uh, we have a strong relationship and will continue to have a strong relationship with our SRO's. Other things that we have in place, we've got a visitor management system that checks in all the visitors that come into the schools, the raptor system. We have threat assessment teams. We, my first year here, we adopted the standard response protocol. That was a year before it was adopted across the Commonwealth that we have used and have been in practice now for this is the fourth year. We're in the process of updating our access control system, Galaxy. Uh we've got six schools that
029are on board now, and we'll continue to knock out those other schools incrementally as uh grant funds allow. We've updated our digital communication systems. That's our radio systems. We've expanded our camera capacity, so the infrastructure was the cameras. If we continue to add cameras, we had to add hardware behind the scenes to um to deal with those upgrades. and we have spent tens of thousands of dollars grant money in doing that. We're in the process uh of continuing of installing ballistic films across the division. We have handheld wand detectors and we also have vape sensors. That's just a list of the things that we already have in place that ensure that these students and staff were safe. So the objective when we started to look at weapons detection system was pretty simple. We wanted to
030find a system that detected firearms and weapons before they got into the schools. It had to integrate with existing programs and protocols and systems that we already have. It had to have an efficient flow rate. You can't have students standing outside for 20, 30 minutes waiting to get into school as they go through whatever process they would have to go through to get into the building. It would have to have minimized disruption to the school day. Additional criteria was the accuracy and the flexibility of the system was important to us. It had to be ADA accessible. You also had cost. You have initial cost and you're going to have reoccurring cost and the maintenance of the programs, the maintenance of the systems. Your primary uh companies out there, there are several uh evolve technology, Cha
031and Garrett metal detectors. Kind of sets the tone a little bit. What did what did we do in terms of practical research and theoretical research? Well, back in uh it was right after Thanksgiving, Dr. Wilson and myself took a uh a little bit of a trip and we went down and we visited uh Halifax County Schools. Halifax County Schools currently uses the Evolve weapons detection system. Um that weapons detection system in Halifax County High School. Well, Halifax has about a thousand students, by the way. So, it's very comparable to uh Brookville High School. So, you've got a thousand students down there. They use the Evolve technology weapons detection system. Um, they outsource who runs that system. Let me be very clear about that. Halifax County employees do not run that. They contract with a private
032agency to run that system. Uh, that day that we were there with Dr. Wilson and I were there. We probably saw a half dozen individuals of that company of that agency that ran the system. We met with Michael Lewis who's the director of student services. He was very accommodating, very nice and and showed us basically how the system ran, but they outsource it and who runs it. Um the evolve system is rather expensive. Uh they funded that system through um COVID grant money at that point in time. So several years ago they designated some money towards uh that system and they implemented that system. >> Dr. Renell, >> sir. >> So is that the camera system that detects weapons through a camera system or is that >> No, they they have a um it is
033basically you pass through um two towers. >> Okay. So that is a metal detector just in the front entrance. >> Yes, they do it uh they've got four. So they've got a pair at the front entrance and they got a pair at the bus route arrival area. >> Okay. Um, we also went up and we took a visit to Amherst Amherst County High School. Dr. Wilson, myself, Dr. Shields visited up there. Uh, Dr. Stanley had the opportunity to go up there and um talked to Dr. Hoden and uh the principal at Amherst High School. Amherst High School uses the open gate system uh which is is a tower system similar to what Halifax has. you enter through uh students enter through and then the if it detects something the the system goes off and alerts
034you and then you go through procedures and protocol with that that open gate system uh for h for excuse me for Amherst high school and Amherst has about a thousand students as well very comparable to Brookville is um they have four of them they have two at the front entrance and they got two at the rear entrance the reason that what they have why that number is because of the flow rate you can get about 300 through the with the open gate system, you can get about 300 students in through one system roughly in 10 to 12 minutes. So, you have two at the front where people come in and they have two at their bus uh their their bus entrance, their bus loop drop off area as well. Um Amherst does not outsource who
035runs the systems. Their teachers run the systems. Uh so, Dr. Crawford, the principal at Amherst High School, has um trained, recruited, retained, I guess if you want to say, uh I think he said 16 to 17 staff that run those systems. Each system, you have to have three people to run it. Okay. The administrators are not running the system. the administrators have um close proximity to the to the systems and if it comes up to where a situation uh requires it, they're going to be dealing with the search of the student in a discrete way and and throw go through their pro protocols if you would. Uh we also had a demo with all of our principles, high school principles, let me clarify, with our high school principles on the open gate system. Uh we
036also had central office staff that participated in that uh the webinar. So they showed us the open gate people showed us this is what the system does. This is what it looks like. This is how you set it up. Um ins and outs of the system if you would. We did that several weeks ago. >> Can you very briefly tell us what's involved in running this system? >> Uh to be honest with you, not much is involved in running this system. You know, you the um uh the towers are portable. They're very light. They're battery operated and they run on a charge. I think Dr. Crawford said he can go about four days until he has to recharge them, but he recharges them every day. And um they have different settings on it, so it
037can be as sensitive as you want it to be. Um what was one of the examples that the company used was um uh like uh excuse me, I don't know the correct term, but whatever uh women use for like for their eyes. It's like a metal thing they put on their eyes for makeup, right? It could [laughter] >> Thank you very much. Uh it could be as sensitive to pick up something like that. vape sensors, etc. Or it could be also dialed into strictly looking for um for metal for weapons. Um so, and they show and and Dr. Crawford showed us what that is. But essentially what you have, Barry, you would have uh students would flow through, they would go through that process. Um it does pick up on their laptops. So what you
038would what the student would have to do, they would have to not very dissimilar to what you would do with a TSA. You put something in a box. They wouldn't put something in a box or a bin. They would hand that around. Then they would go through the system. If the system gets alerted, that's when an administrator gets involved and they go over to X area designated area and they conduct a search. Yes, ma'am. >> How many students can go through the towers at a time? >> You uh one at a time. Okay. >> But you get about three 300 in a system. You can get you can get 300 students through one system, one tower system. >> I'm picturing a 10 minutes. >> Okay. in 10 minutes. >> So, can I can I >>
039please >> make a few comments? So, what we saw is that laptops have to be handed around the tower. >> Um, and there are certain things certain items such as metal eyeglass cases or you've seen the little canisters for Altoids, things like that. They always set it off for whatever reason. So, you have to kind of practice with kids ahead of time, make sure they understand these aren't things you want to bring through because it will set the alarm off. Um, but the the laptops do have to be >> handed around and and safely hopefully because obviously if you're handing laptops around with one hand at some point they're going to hit the floor. Um, >> so that takes people and I think that's, you know, somebody's got to be there. >> So, have y'all
040seen a system that comes with a conveyor to where you don't have to manually hand the stuff around? You can just set your laptop on a conveyor. It takes it to the other side. You walk through and then you pick it up and go. And that way you don't have to have this handoff thing going on constantly. >> Yeah. I don't think it was I don't think it was Amherst. I think it was Heritage that was on the news recently and they just have a table >> with a plastic bucket >> and they just put it in and just slide it down the table. So >> we can, you know, we can be that basic. >> Mr. Phillips, I looked at those in in in research. I have not physically put eyes on one. I've
041looked at those in research. The uh I think everything has unintended consequences. Correct. Uh and with that uh conveyor belt system there was you got to have some space to do that. >> Uh and so some some things in your infrastructure to be able to uh uh to handle something like that. We also and I apologize for not mentioning this. We also um uh researched um the name of the company skips me so I apologize I can get that to you but we researched um AI technology in weapons detection and uh that was a a webinar that Dr. Wilson did with myself Mr. Hudson IT director. Uh we looked at that system. Super nice, super expensive. Uh you're you're close to seven figures uh to doing that largely because it is um we would have
042to do some significant upgrades to our cameras and to to our infrastructure to to be able to do that. Is it going in that direction? Probably. Uh is that uh technology emerging right now? Yes, it is. Uh, but I think with anything that comes out right away, it's going to be a little bit more expensive on the front end with that because it's all cloud-based and this stuff that we have right now is not cloud-based. >> That particular system and that company that we spoke to. >> So, you mentioned the evolved system was a bit more expensive um and that was not run inhouse. So that's monitored remotely or they're paid employee, you know, paid people on staff with Evolve that are that are stationed. >> The best that I can answer that Mr. Perman
043is that Halif and where I went in Halifax and uh Lynburg City similar they they contract with >> Pyramid Security Company. >> Totally ran by them. Funded by you. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Thank you. >> You're welcome. >> What do they do if a child's tardy? Do they wand them or >> uh that that's something you got to figure out. >> Yes, sir. That is that is a that is a big consideration. We just had uh follow-up conversation with Dr. Crawford up at up at Amherst because they rolled the system out in December, so they're very new to it and still working out the kinks with it all. Uh and that is um that's something he's also working out as well. What do you do with your late arrivals? What do you do with
044the people that come in from the governor school midday, etc., etc.? Um, yes, that that would something that would have to be thought through and considered. >> Yeah, because it's hard to staff it the whole day. >> Yes. >> And I'll say this in closing and I will answer any questions for you whether now directly or you can email them to me. You know, the if I may suggest, you have to look at it in two different lenses. You got a philosophical lens with it. Everyone sitting in this room wants to keep our kids and our students and community safe, right? So, philosophically, we're all good with it. You really got to consider the logistics of it as a board. You have to consider the logistics of it and probably a little bit philosophically, what
045does that look like inside of your buildings? Because it's different. It's a different look and it's a different feel. >> I think I could say we we we talked to our our secondary principles about it and and And honestly, their reactions were were a little bit mixed. I mean, some thought during the school day was priority. Some thought that if we could do it at after school activities and ball games, that would be a priority. But of course, everybody's got um concern of of staffing it. Okay. So, if you do it at ball games, how many more people do you have to have working the ball game? Um if you do it during the school day, how many more people do you have to have on duty? Um so, just things to take into consideration.
046And then there even with the towers there's a uh it's a it's a cost. I mean I think what we cost out was um for for 12 units two per secondary school would run approximately $280 some thousand dollar. Um and that's probably not enough. I mean you would need more than two towers. You'd probably need four at Brookville High. Yes, sir. >> You probably need four at all of our schools. So >> minimal >> you can probably double that. An example of the logistics thing is how do you handle baseball games at Alta Vista? How do you handle softball games at Brookville? >> Correct. >> You know, I'm not saying there's not answers to that. I'm just saying that's it's the board's pleasure. That's that would be the next bit of work that you'd have
047to do is digest that and figure out how you're going to pull that off. So, what we were thinking tonight is we would just present you this information and and then circle back to kind of see what your um thoughts were in terms of moving forward and and if you have any questions between now and then, feel free to reach out to myself or Dr. Enella to answer questions. >> If a system costs say $5 million, how much grant money is available secure for kids? None. Zero. No, >> that's what you >> The school equipment and security grant that we get through DCJS is maxed out, I want to say, at uh $220,000 with a local match. Uh and and there's no um I don't want to say it's arbitrary because we we we apply
048and we we put in variables and information of of of why we think we need certain things. Uh but it's it's we're not always guaranteed that. That's not that's not a something we can count on every year. That fluctu that's in the several years I've done this job that fluctuates. Sometimes we're like woo we got 200,000 and there's been years where we've gotten 70 or 80,000. So >> something that I would recommend as you're thinking about it, maybe talk to your administrators. I think that would be a good thing. >> But you know, you need them in elementary school too because you got kids coming in with a gun for show. I mean, I don't disagree. >> Mr. Law Horn, you got any comments? >> Come on. >> No, sir. >> Yeah. I would say
049my opinion, not getting into too many details, but I mean, you mentioned sporting events. I would like to try to just get them functional and come up with the plan for the school day, for the academic day, and then after we get the bugs worked out of that and then we can figure out how to move that, you know, to the athletic events after school and staffed that up as needed. But I think the first priority in my opinion is getting them into schools who want to get them in and then move forward from there. But um yeah, we'll look over the information you got us so far and talk to some people and maybe circle back. What kind of timeline are you thinking to circle back with us on? A month, two months. >>
050Uh I would say a month. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> All right. Anybody else on the board have any comments while we have Dr. Reella here? >> Well, first of all, appreciate the presentation, Dr. Reanella. Um secondly of course should be really first of course the uh safety of our children is definitely very important. So we need to take a hard look at what we need to do to implement um this in my opinion. Of course logistics cost application all very important. So uh we've got to get that figured out. So that'll be our next steps. >> Understood. >> Anybody else? >> All right. Thanks. >> Thank you Mr. Chairman. >> You're welcome. Next up, uh, Dr. Stanley got a draft of the 2627 budget. >> Yes, sir. Thank you. Uh, and I want to
051thank Michelle and her team for all the hard work they put into creating this budget. Um, as we get into it, I I'll start by saying that one of the biggest challenges for us this year and and going into next year has been dealing with the declining ADM. You've heard me mention that before. Um, you know, all of our funds and revenues are based on the number of kids that we have and we've lost quite a few. Um, as has every I think public school in the state of Virginia. Um, every superintendent that I talked to is dealing with the same issues um, with that. And, uh, so I will say to begin with that that has impacted us this year. Okay. our operating budget coming down the wire in March, April, May is going
052to be tight. Okay. Um and I've already told our principles that, you know, in years past where I've said, you know, what kind of big ticket items do you have? Maybe I can I can purchase some things down the stretch. I don't have that luxury this year. And even our reimbursements, um we've reimbured for a lot of thing when it comes to athletics may look a little different this year because because it's tight. um whenever you have incre uh decreasing revenue and increasing cost, you know, at some point you hit a point where it's tight. So, it's tight. Um, and one thing, if you could go on to the next slide. Um, in the caboose budget, um, our our governor did have a $1,500 onetime bonus for all SOQ positions, and we're going to do
053everything that I can that we can to provide that $1,500 bonus to all full-time employees in June. We want to do it this year. Um, however, we do have the flexibility of taking the funds that we get from the state and and and using it to pay a bonus to everybody. So, I cannot promise that it'll be $1,500. Um, it may be less, but um certainly $1,500 is our goal. Um, all right. So, so next we will talk about um next year's proposed budget. So again to start the conversation, we are projecting to lose an additional 60 students next year. Um we are in this budget looking at giving a 3% raise to all staff except for administrators. We are proposing a 2% raise. This budget has very few additional positions. We've got four special
054education elementary aid positions um that we've already mentioned to you. We've got one special education elementary adaptive teacher and we've got one elementary administrative assistant that we would like to place at Tomahawk and that's simply based on their enrollment. They're hovering right there at 700 um which is by far our largest elementary school. >> So all six of those are new new positions in >> correct. Yes, sir. a bright spot in in meeting with the county. They have um committed to giving us an additional $2 million for this budget. And some of you all have obviously been on the board longer than I've been superintendent. Um $2 million is is the most I can recall them giving us in quite a long time. So, we certainly appreciate >> I never remember I mean I've been
055almost over 20 years. I've never seen them give us $2 million. Well, I mean, we are certainly thankful and and and I think they recognize the hard work that we're doing and want to support us and so we're very thankful. What that $2 million allowed us to do was to give a 3% teach uh raise to our teachers um because initially we were going to do 2% just like that um was suggested in the governor's budget. It also allowed us to budget 10% for health insurance increases. um every 10% increase is approximately $1 million. And since we were able to budget that and we are in anticipating those in um um prices to go up, hopefully we'll be able to cover that with this money here and not pass it along to our teachers. So
056So that's huge. That $2 million is going to go a long ways. Um I am hoping that you know as the budget is finalized at the state level that that 2% becomes 3% and then we can give a 3% for everybody. Um so that's that's the hope but right now if we had to um start the school year with this budget it would be 2% for administrators. Thank you. Um so in terms of ADM projections, um the Department of Education is projecting us to have 7,138 students last year. Our projections have a few more. Um based on my experience this year, we're going to go with a lower projection. All right. And then if we have more students than we anticipated next year, well, okay, that'll be okay. I'd rather have that than than not
057enough. And then you can see what our um membership is currently. Okay. In terms of just general information, you can see how we're funded. Our school budget 80 or 67% of that comes from the state um to the tune of approximately $80 million. The county's 26% um at right there at 315. And then you can see from the federal government we get $6 million700,000 um for a total budget of $119,322 um880. And here's another way of looking at that. You can see again the majority of our funds come from the state. Thank you. [cough and clears throat] how that money is spent. You can see that the vast majority of it is spent on instruction, which includes our teachers, instructional staff, support staff, and resources. $11 million, the second largest category, goes into operations and
058maintenance. And then, um, thirdly, we've got people transportation. Again, broke it down a little different way. Majority of that goes into instruction by far. When it comes to our school nutrition budget, um you can see that we have balanced that. You've got another um worksheet in your packet that that outlines our school nutrition budget and you can see the vast majority of that money comes from the federal level. U we do anticipate being a CP uh C county next year. That means all of our schools will be in that program and all of our students will receive free uh breakfast and lunch. So that's where the majority of that money comes from. And then you can see it goes back into food service, payroll uh maintenance and operations of the school nutrition staff. Terms of
059a budget timeline, we're hoping that by next weekend the general assembly has an approved budget. That would be great. So when we come back to our next meeting, we can say that this is locked down um at this or or close enough. Um however, the governor has until April the 13th to act on that budget. Um we'll come back on [clears throat] the 23rd to give you a a final budget. Um but as you know, that that may have to be amended, you know, as the budget changes. And then of course the county will adopt their budget on April the 7th. and hopefully that $2 million will still be there. So anyway, you've got a copy of our budget. Um all the details, all of the changes. I mean, in most categories, you will see
060a especially when it comes to personnel, a two or 3% increase. That's from the proposed raise. Um I'm not sure you got another. Is that it? Okay. Um, if you have any questions, we'll certainly be happy to answer them here tonight to the best of our ability, but you've also got two weeks to look over that budget and give us a call if you got any questions. >> Did y'all bump up fuel costs? >> Yes, sir. We did to um obviously with the with the state of the world and the turmoil that we're in now, we we put some additional money in fuel. Absolutely. Any other questions, comments from the board at this time? Mr. Hardy, since you're in the back, um, thank you to yourself that you would pass along that to your board
061members on the board of supervisors for the funding that you've, uh, put forth to the school division. Certainly appreciate it, sir. very much. >> All right. Thank you, Dr. Stanley, for the quick overview. Look that over and circle back to that here in another couple of weeks. >> Okay. Other than the uh budget, what else do you have, Dr. Stanley? Any other topics to cover? >> April 21st. Um state's having a special election. We normally have Rushburg Elementary School and that yellow branch that are used as as polling places um because we are anticipating a a big turnout. Um we have asked um Kelly Martin um at the elections office if she would consider finding alternate locations and she has. So, >> we were thinking we were going to be asking you tonight to to
062allow Yellow Branch in Rusburg to have a virtual day on April 21st, but because the county is working with us, um our kids will be in school on those days, which we're very thankful for. We still encourage everyone to come out and vote. Um March 23rd, obviously, is our next school board meeting. We'll be we'll be looking to finalize our budget. Um at that meeting, I'm also going to have architectural firm RRMM. um they will be presenting on their findings through their feasibility study of Alta Vista combined school and basically what they've done is they have gone into the school they have talked to school personnel about what the needs are in the building what the future needs are going to are going to be and uh I mean they've gone into every mechanical room
063they have looked under every every rock gone into every corner and they're going to present what their findings are and what a potential renovation at out to combined school could look like. Um during that meeting, I'm also going to ask you to bless moving forward with the Alta Vista project. >> Bless it. And then we will we will we will share that uh your desires with the board of supervisors and look for their blessing on uh April 7th. Okay. And the last thing I've got for you is on March 21st, we've got the spring forum. Um that will be in Danville and I think we've got four of you signed up to go. If you would like to carpool, I'll have a van available. If you ride with me, I need to be there at
0644:30. So, I will be leaving about 3:30. If we let Dr. Hail drive, she could probably leave at 4:00. She drives a lot faster than I do. Um, but u just letting you know that I I'll call you and see if anybody's available uh or wants to ride with us in the van. And if not, that's okay, too. Uh, we're looking forward to it. And that's all I've got for you. >> All right. Thank you. >> Can I ask a question? >> Yes, sir. >> The countertops in a computer lab at work. Did they ever figure out the bracing? >> Countertops in the computer lab. So, so right now they've got some metal brackets that that will go against the wall that that support that, but they're still looking at trying to figure out a
065an angle bracket that can come out >> support the whole time >> to the to the front and putting those every so often. >> Gotcha. Yeah. Okay. Thank you. >> Yeah, we saw that and figured, okay, that's going to last about two seconds. >> Yeah. [laughter] Keep leaning on. It's gone. Okay. Um, matters from the board. Mr. Maddox. Thank you. Um, the week of February the 9th through the 13th, Alville Elementary School students celebrated Virginia kindness week by participating in schoolwide kindness challenges. Um, I guess this last week they did Read Across America. recently celebrated Read Across America by participating in a spirit week and partnering with local businesses and alist combined school teachers for tomorrow students who visit classrooms to read with our students and help promote a love of reading. March 31st they're
066going to do career day with local professionals representing Virginia Career Clusters will visit AES to speak with students in grades preK through five. Students will learn about different careers and interests, talents, and habits that contribute to the success in the workplace. Um, high school state meet Jurian Sherlin placed fourth in the 50 freestyle, sixth in the 100 freestyle, which is amazing because we don't have about eight, nine kids in our swim team. And in the track, Learian Farmer placed fifth in the 500 meter hurdles. And the 4x200 meter relay team got fifth and the 4x 400 meter relay team got eighth. So I think we had a good day. That's all I got. Thank you. >> All right, that's the pyramid. >> Good evening, everyone. Uh, so I have a little bit of a long
067report here today, but it's a great one. [clears throat] Uh first of all, I'd like to uh uh congratulate Hank Fannon. Uh he was the winner of the tractor operation competition uh through FFA. Uh he has his regional competition coming up on Wednesday. So, congrats to him. Uh in middle and high school, we had writing contest uh to cover the winners there. Uh Hayden Taylor placed first uh for win Campbell. Zoe Fischer placed second and Peyton Gore placed third in uh the short fiction. So, they swept that. Uh Karen Campbell placed first and Cory Swanner placed second in the middle school poetry section. And then in the high school, Emily Wright uh placed as well in that section. Uh as far as sports, uh girls basketball was fortunate to be able to make the uh
068playoffs this year. They actually hosted a home game in Rapahanic against Rapahanic, which was an exciting game. I got to go there. The student section was crazy. Uh they brought a lot of energy. Did a great job. They were very respectful. Uh they ended up falling in that game. So uh they ended ended their playoff run there. But congratulations to three uh girls and one uh young uh man who was awarded uh honorable mention on all region team. Dalon Burns uh she was honorable mention. Ania Dues was honorable mention. So uh as Nyle Elliott was as well and then Jordan Wilson made second team all region in basketball. and Chase Hedrickk was second team as well uh for the boys. Uh in track and field, uh we recently just had the indoor state track meet.
069If you haven't heard already, we have a record book holder there. So, Arnasia Dues had a career day uh at the indoor state and uh track and field event at Liberty University. She placed first in the state in triple jump, first in the 55 meters, first in the 300 and broke a state record, and she placed first in the 500. She wasn't done. She decided to long jump and triple jump for the first time this year and placed third in both of those events. Um, she scored 53 points by herself and which ranked second in uh Virginia High School League history and most points scored by a track athlete uh at the class one or two state championships. Not sure about the rest of the classes, but she scored 53 points by herself, more than
070most teams score in that event. So, um, just uh totally impressive. Um, other things we had going on, um, it looks like that our staff member of the month, uh, were two at William Campbell, that was Mr. Owen and Mr. Palmer. Uh, just thank you for your consistent, uh, efforts to make sure we're keeping our schools and the grounds clean. Um, we had a March Madness reading challenge throughout March uh, to help celebrate National Reading Month. And then in sixth grade, we had a STEM visit. Uh, Jack Wagstaff was there from the National Resource Education uh, coordinator from at 4. So that was a good visit. He uh taught how water sheds work and how uh waste uh impacts uh pollution and the management of that as well. Uh last month I reported on the
071grant that we uh worked very hard uh to uh present and we actually received that. So we have a $5,000 grant that we'll be getting for our future center at William Campbell. Uh and then we have our blood drive coming up in conjunction with the Red Cross on the 25th. And today FBLA is uh at their regional competition. Hopefully we got some uh good reports from that. Haven't heard good. Can you elaborate? >> Excuse me. >> Thank you, Mr. Carr. Right. >> All right. Masters placed first in real estate and first in business management. Code Sage placed first in banking and financial systems and second in personal finance. Kylie Cooper placed first in personal finance. Seth Holly placed third in journalism and Dustin Smith placed secondation. [cough and clears throat] >> That is awesome. Great
072job to all of all of those FBA participants at the regional meeting. [clears throat] I was hoping to judge that and I wouldn't be able to because they couldn't guarantee I could get out of there and get here on time. So, I had to decline that. I did that last year. I had a ball. It was It was excellent. Um, moving on to Brookdale Elementary. Our spring uh book fair went went great. Uh every student got a book in the whole school. So that was awesome. Uh on 3rd uh of March, there was a ukulele concert. I did not get to see that, but I would have loved it. Uh that was for the fourth and fifth grade students. Uh so that's awesome. There's a spring dance coming up on Friday the 13th, which is
073uh which is oxymoron. And the theme is the giddy up Gayla. I've been trying to convince my wife to be my date. She hasn't committed yet, but I do have my outfit and my boots ready to go if she decides to go with me. Um, we've got parent teacher conferences on the 26th and on the 31st. Uh, we have our kindergarten first grade spring m musical. Uh, and our Brookdale Elementary employee, uh, shout out goes to Mrs. Karen Offener. She's been teaching for over 40 years. >> She's just as passionate now as the day she started. So, thank you for your service. That's a hard act. >> Little town, big things. >> Today should be the new >> I will definitely send a picture in our message. [laughter] >> Miss fall. >> All right. Well,
074I uh want to start by recognizing some great accomplishments from our students. The Brookville girls 4x2 relay team. Carmen Johnson, Kayn Tucker, Paris Waller, and Shayen Coppins finished second at the state meet and set a new school record with a time of 14728. And that is an incredible achievement. The 55 meter dash dash was also a great race to watch. Rusber and Brookville finishing first and second in the boys race and Kayn Tucker finishing as runner up on the girls side. Congratulations as well to the Rusber boys team for placing fifth overall at states. And I actually went both days um to the state track meet with my kids and we had a fantastic time and we cheered on all of our county's athletes. I was yelling for Brassburg too. [laughter] >> Um I also
075while I was there ran [clears throat] into um Lance Bingham. He's the head coach at Liberty on Liberty's uh track and field. He was one of my old co old coaches and he had mentioned that the Rusber boys were looking really strong out there. So I was like, "Hey, our Campbell County kids." That's it. >> Um it was really fun to watch the races and explain to my boys how all of the events worked. Um took me back. [laughter] Um also I have to I have to say I'm proud of Learen and it makes me feel really old cuz he was one of my kids >> students or something. [laughter] >> He was one of my kids. He's a good kid. >> Yes, >> you did a good job with it. >> Thanks. [laughter] [gasps]
076>> Last week was Read Across America Spirit Week and it was great to see students across our schools participating in all the fun activities celebrating reading. Um, a couple of upcoming events to note. The Leisville Road Elementary PTO is hosting a fundraiser at Funquest on March 27th from 5:00 to 10:00 p.m. and parents do need to pre-register for that event. Also, kindergarten registration and pre-K screening will take place on April 22nd, so families should call the schools to schedule their appointments. >> All right. Thank you, [clears throat] >> Miss Parker. >> Oh, yes. Thank you. um wanted to just say how great our student advisory council meeting was and some of the stu the students from William Campbell whose actually their focus was to have student more student involvement which is they've just been fabulous.
077I know Mr. Cartwright's been an amazing uh help there too to get things off the ground there and improve the look of the school as best he can with his own bare hands. and um they mentioned not just FBLA but getting more kids involved in sports and having more of the students attend the sporting events and they have I mean this is student driven. I'm just so excited to see that they've really helped grow it. The kids are amazing. I love seeing them when we have our meetings. I did want to also mention that the students from all the schools we discussed a little bit about security and about the you know having the metal detectors and I was pleased um with their answers. So just kind of show you where I stand too is
078they didn't realize until they talked to their principles what safety they already have in place. So once they learned about what's already in place, they felt much more secure already. Like they didn't they weren't as concerned because they didn't know about the ballistic film and they didn't know, you know, the the real role of the SRO. They're just, you know, they're there. But we just take for granted that the students and the parents understand that we are hard target in Campbell County with all the things we already have in place. And they actually even recommended to us that at sporting events first is what because you know which is is my favorite too because that's where we're soft and where we don't know who's coming. We know who's coming in our schools for the most
079part. Um so I really appreciated the kids feedback on that and just went to the Brookville High School political science club field trip to Richmond which obviously I'm very passionate about. We had a great time and it's always fun to see which kids stay behind and take pictures of the artwork, [clears throat] which kids stay behind and ask questions about government. Um, and it's just always amazing to see everybody so excited to learn about our legislative process, see how accessible our legislators are. Uh, and it was a great day and always hats off to government teacher Aaron Scott who has his CDL which helps us make that field trip happen as he drives the bus so that we don't have to worry about drivers for that field trip. Um, and I think and actually Alta
080Vista High School too the um the students that are on our advisory council also work really hard to get make sure that everyone has an opportunity to be involved in their school. And I just think that's amazing. I don't remember that at high school at all about other students trying to help the other students. You know, we just all went to school. We all played ball. We all, you know, you just did it. Um, and it's just so awesome to see our Campbell County students care about each other. And that's all I have today. >> Thank you, Jones. >> Oh, y'all are in overload today or tonight, aren't you? Um, first thing I see on the table here is this flyer. Man, do you do you see that you're coming to that college and career
081day? It's I mean, it's one of the better days that I think we have to host 75 businesses for graduating seniors to come and talk to and see what they might like to do. And the only other thing I got is Mr. Bennett from Concord says sorry he couldn't be here. Said we're having parent teacher conferences and a musical on March 26th. and he says, "Of course, we got lots of field trips coming up and we have our fun run in April. If you got a lot of energy and you just want to go out there and run and with no rhyme or reason at all, go to Concord on that day." Um, Russ Middle School um their theater department had Alice and Wonderland Jr. back there about a month ago and Mr. Alder, I
082thought he I thought he did an extraordinary job. It's been a long time since I've been in middle school and seen seen the huge variation from sixth graders to eighth graders. It's just until you see them there and but but did a great job and it was really a good performance. Um certainly appreciate the donations that were given this month. Um Dr. Vanella, appreciate your presentation. I mean, it's it's it's really really good. And I mean, I think we're I think we're beyond sticking our heads in the sand saying, "Well, we don't we don't need to do anything." I think I think being proactive is the way we need to lean, you know, fall. And appreciate the information you gave us >> and just uh had a central Virginia Governor school meeting last Wednesday. Um
083that seemed to go very well. Hired a new um teacher there. He's a Lynchburg College or what is it now? University of Lynchburg. Um hired a math instructor from there. They're very enthusiastic about him. And Dr. Doug Douglas who's going to take over in July. Uh it it was the first meeting I've really heard him do a lot of talking and he's very very well very well versed and I think uh governor schools got a lot to look forward to and just a little bit of uh I guess congratulations as I see one of our guys Tim Holden is acting superintendent of Ammeris County you know schools. So hats off to him. Last time I saw him, he was driving the career tech bus for for them. Now he's now now he's the acting superintendent.
084So hats [clears throat] off to him. >> That's all I got. David. >> All right. Um yeah, I want to thank [clears throat and cough] Dr. McCormack, Dr. Ronaldella. Thank you both for your presentations this evening, getting the information together and bringing it to us. We appreciate that. um at Rustburg High School. Um as has been alluded to, the track program did really well. Um Gerald Mos is doing a great job that program. Uh they were participated in the Virginia High School track meet. Uh the boys team finished fifth and Alex Dunn broke the state record in hurdles on consecutive days and was state champion in two events. So congratulations to Alex. Outstanding job there. um two state records. So um also fine arts night was this past Tuesday. Um they had their annual dodgeball
085tournament which uh is a big deal in Rusburg. I don't know if you guys have heard about that, but uh they had a great time with that. Raised a lot of money for the SCA and also raised uh canned food for the Rusber United Methodist Food Pantry. So, a great community effort there as well. And they are hosting a blood drive on Friday the 13th. >> I think Jason Borhees is taking the blood. If you have any horror film fanatics in at the meeting tonight, but yeah, kind of a strange day for a blood drive there, but uh that's [clears throat] going on at the Rusber High School library. And the middle school um held their third quarter family partnership night. Had a great turnout for that. And Mr. Jones, I can't believe you didn't
086make note of the Rusber Middle School agricultural student. They're gearing up for their plant sale in the spring, which is always a big event. So, uh get prepared for that. That's coming. I don't have a date yet for that, but it's coming up soon. So, um that is all I have for tonight. Um, and now we need to adjourn to a closed meeting. And I need a motion to adjourn to a closed meeting. >> Like to make a motion that we adjourn for our closed session. >> Yes. >> Mr. Mr. Chairman, I move that we convene in closed meeting for discussion or consideration of the acquisition of real property for public for a public purpose or for the disposition of publicly held real property where discussion in an open meeting would adversely affect the bargaining
087position or negotiating strategy of the public body. >> Second motion and we have a second. So we'll convene to close session and take a quick fivem minute break. All right.
