Um, our first report tonight is from Mrs. Jan Stanton regarding our community education classes. Thanks, Jan, for coming tonight. >> Thank you for having me. Pleasure to be here and to talk to

003talk about our classes. Um, first though, I'd like to recognize all the teachers um that have taught these classes uh for this this school year. Um, Ed Dunn from our fire department, uh, taught both the CPR and the first day classes. Barb Thompson, uh, retired art teacher from, uh, district 124, taught all the related classes to to art. And Camille Dicki, um, your middle school math teacher, teaches all of our baking and cooking classes. Um Michelle, who is the head of the floral department at Marianos, uh taught not only um this year she has taught a lot of floral classes for us before, but this year she's she taught uh balloon art classes as well. And um she is the department head of both both those departments at this time. And then we still partner

004with uh Marine Valley Community College for our parent and community English classes. And um Michelle Harris is the teacher for that class. She's been with us for about two years now. As far as the fall classes, which you see some pictures, um the first one was the papier-mâché lantern class, and that's the top picture on the right. Um everyone had an opportunity to learn how to make a make the lantern and then also to um add accent flowers uh to the lanterns. at the balloon art class. You see that's quite a uh a lot of balloons, but we had what they call that they're holding our table toppers. So, they all um made um their own they chose their own table topper uh colors and then an accent balloon. So, they they made that and

005then once uh we were finished with that, they all came together and made a balloon arch. And one of the ladies that came to the class had her granddaughter with and she took the arch home. Last I checked with her a few classes later, she it was still in her bedroom inflated. So, so it was a good good project. Um the jewelry making class, they left with so many pieces of jewelry. They had uh all different options as far as necklaces, bracelets, earrings, um pretty much anything they wanted to make. And uh Barb Thompson did a did a wonderful job as always with that class. um the kids baking class. Um we made a brownie trifle which comes out presents very very nicely that bottom picture on the left but very simple. Um so they

006broke up the brownies. It's three layers. Brownies uh chocolate pudding which they mixed the milk with the pudding made the pudding and then the cool whip and they just layer that till they get to the top and then put the crumbled brownies on top. So it was an easy class but they all left feeling I think pretty good about what they made. I'm surprised they are able to get to a finished product with that. I feel like >> there's a lot of eating at the brown. >> That's that goes Yeah. every class. Um the adult baking class um they made an apple cinnamon bread pudding and um this is a fall it was a fall class and they really uh did a nice job. This is all these recipes are Camille's um passed down from

007generations and uh this one especially she said her grandmother made all the time. And then in the spring u the origami class um you can see the crane mobile. Uh everyone learned how to make the cranes and then how to balance them on the ring uh with the string and and there's some weights waste involved in that and um alcohol ink painting. You can see everyone holding. You really can't see the coasters they made. So, I I put some of their artwork below it, but it's um it's a process that you um take a die-based ink and you blend it with uh rubbing alcohol and it comes out becomes fluid and you can kind of shift it and and make it make it your own. But it's pretty impressive. Um, we had a class oh,

008a couple years ago with alcohol ink where they made a framed piece of artwork and um, a couple of people had asked if we could do something with the alcohol ink again. So, we brought it brought it back into the coasters. Um, let's see. So that and then we did have the um chocolate chip cookies for the kids and the buttermilk pecan rolls for the adults for those two two um cooking and baking classes. And as far as CPR classes go, um we've added another CPR and we've added another um first aid. We're partnering, we just started partnering with the rec center. um it's a requirement of some of their departments in the rec center that they um have CPR and first aid as a as a requirement of the job. So um she asked

009if they could partner with us and we will both promote it and then we we will have the class together though and um like I mentioned Ed Dun teaches these classes. So it's it's gone you know really well with having both of us promoted. Um we have it in the perspective and uh California promotes a few other places as well and uh so to date and this is going back I've been doing this so 10 years so this is the accumulation of that 239 individuals have been trained through through these classes with us and CPR and 172 individuals for first aid. So it's it's yeah it's wonderful. Um and then as far as um parent and community ed English classes, um we've we've offered it initially, just to give you a little history, it was

010offered in person um and it was at Northeast School because they had the heaviest population um of of um non-English-speaking parents. And it was parents only. And we had a room for the kids. They come to the child care room. We had a childare supervisor. I was able to get um kids from the high school that needed service hours, they come play with the kids or do homework with the kids. So, it worked out really well. Um and the parents would be in a separate room if they ever were needed if they were were right there. And then COVID hit and um we weren't a weren't able to do in person anymore. So, we started doing the online classes and that's really taken off because then we were able to um we had I had

011gotten requests from 123 and 126. Um they were looking to do something like that. Marine Valley had said, you know, contact us because we already had the program. So, now we were able to incorporate that all together. And so having it virtual, our numbers can be whatever they are, you know, and um and it it's worked out it's worked out really well. So um this year 18 so they pre-est and they post test and this year 18 uh actually came through the whole um semester and post- tested and um of those individuals Spanish and Arabic were their first first languages. So that pretty much concludes it. Um, as far as next year, um, we're looking at doing some suncatchers, um, possibly some stained glass. We've talked about a couple different things. It's nothing definite yet.

012And then for the adult classes, um, baking and cooking. We're doing Kelzones. And then for the kids baking and cooking, they're going to make um, chocolate chip muffins. They're going to we're doing breakfast, so they're doing chocolate chip muffins. And then they're going to have um skewers, fruit skewers in a rainbow of colors. So that's what we have kind of planned so far for next. >> So that's >> Thank you. So any questions at all? >> Where's the um where's your schedule? Can we find it on the website? >> Okay, so it it u it is on the website. Dan puts it on the website once we um establish it. We haven't um we don't have it on there now. The fall after the fall classes are done until the spring classes come, but it

013we register at least six weeks prior to the classes and then everything will be on the website. And actually Dan has put picked all the pictures from all the classes, prior classes are on the website. It's like a uh what is it? >> I don't know if those made it to the new site. >> Okay. You have to I was looking at Dan. I'll have to double check. >> Okay. And um but that's where we we do promote it there as well as in the perspective and then in your newsletters. We promote it as many places as we can. >> Can you give us a plug right now like when time and place? >> Um not yet. Sorry. >> When you're ready though, we will get it right. >> When you're definitely >> I can

014definitely forward it to your house. >> I just want to, you know, for the four people that are listening at home, you know, >> we've got our ideas yet, but we don't have any dates to put them. >> Of course. >> All right. Thank you so much. >> They're fun classes. >> You should participate. Yeah. Yeah. They're fun classes. We made ravioli at and trust me that was an experience making ravioli but it was fun and cool and everybody was helping out and you know your your stuff wasn't right or you added more of this you're like okay that doesn't look right then somebody will come help it it was a lot a lot of fun >> it sounds like a great atmosphere >> the mayor and um her husband came too class Italian ones

015we did >> but they had they were I think they had a fun time >> right all right next up we have Mr. Hennessy to give us a construction update. >> Hello. >> It's been um a little busy um for Northwest the asbestous abatement went spectacular. Um they were done a lot quicker than I thought and the floor underneath is >> so good. >> Very good shape to put new flooring on top of. So >> awesome. Um they were in and out three weeks. I think they had the whole school abdated. Um and now the flooring guys are just they're flying through. They're >> they told me today they should be done next week with the whole school. >> Wow. >> And it's working out perfect because we're able to slowly bring everything back in.

016It's outside in the shipping container so it's not a mad rush. You can just bring stuff in and clean it. set up the classrooms as the flooring guys move. >> Um, I've never worked with this company before. They're awesome. They're very good at what they do and they're very cooperative. Anything we need if we need to get in a room or so it's been it's been great. Um, >> is this our last building that needs abatement for asbestous? >> Yeah. Um, there are a few areas at central like pipe chases. >> Yeah, I remember you mentioning our like areas and stuff. >> Yeah. >> Um that if we ever did like a big remodel at Central, >> we'd have to knocking it down. >> I know. >> But if we did, we'd have to address

017it. But as of now, yeah, we're in really good shape as far as the species. >> Awesome. Sounds great news. >> Um Southwest, they're moving right along. The new HVAC units came out. Um they're on the rooftop. They're working on hooking everything up. The duck work in the gym is up. Um, and we got rid of the old air handlers above the stage. Those are out. Um, moving right along over there, too. So, they're planning on being done hopefully the first week of August. and southeast. Um the chiller wasn't supposed to come until next week and it showed up today. So it's in place and they already started piping it into the building. Um unvents they have like it I said they're about 85% installed, old ones removed. Um they are going to have the

018west end of the building finished and open for us to start setting up and cleaning um next week. >> Wow. >> We're going to be ready for the first day of school. >> That's great. >> Yes, we are. >> So, um yeah, it's been a busy summer, but all the companies we're working with are great and they're all they know they have a schedule. They know they got to get it done and they all are ahead of schedule. So >> nice. >> I'm very happy. So these pictures that's southwest. So the picture on the right is where the old air handler was above the stage. So they brick that up. That'll get repainted to match. And then the picture on the left is where the new duck work for the air conditioning in the gym

019is coming into the building. So right outside of there is the rooftop unit. So, um it's kind of hard to tell with those pictures, but um they got a lot there's a lot more in the gym than what these pictures show. Um >> this is the new floor at Northwest. >> Oh my god, >> it's so cool. >> It looks awesome. >> Yeah, I think the kids are really going to love it. >> Yeah. >> And then um that's the gym floor. They haven't striped it yet. They're working on the measurements and everything right now. Um, but it's it's nice. Now, here's Southeast. So, Southeast obviously rip out a lot of the ceilings and above >> above the ceiling tiles is insulation. So that while I had to come out to you see all the

020new piping running down and um in here's some of the on the left is the uh new unit vent with the piping coming down the wall. That all be covered up and that in the gym there the purple is where the new piping had to come through for the chiller. That'll get painted to match the sopet on the next to it. So, um, the gym looks like a a warehouse right now with >> with all their equipment. >> Um, they're moving right along, so I'm happy so far. >> Excellent. >> Any questions? >> That was great news. >> Yeah. No, it's been >> no hiccups or anything. >> Like all these projects like things being on time or ahead of time is great news. Believe me, it's it's huge. I mean, I'm running around >>

021all over the place, but when I go to these meetings and they're giving me good news, that makes it a little easier. So, >> those floors at Northwest, >> I mean, it's going to make a big difference for that. >> Oh, yeah. >> Awesome. Custodians are ecstatic. >> Like carpeting kids is just >> No, it looks so cool. >> Yeah. So to speak briefly too about Northwest, one of our next steps is to assess whether or not we are able to paint the inside of the building and potentially and hopefully over Christmas break. Um that's really dependent on our architects and timelines in terms of bidding because we would have to bid for the project, but we do intend to bring that to a facilities committee once we have more information. >> That's good for

022Northwest. They need a facelift. >> They did, right? >> Yeah. Unfortunately, we couldn't paint this summer because of the abatement. >> Yeah. >> Too many pieces. >> Yeah. >> Um but it it's gonna I sent some pictures to Dr. Paddock. He's >> It looks great. >> So, anytime you want to stop by and walk through, feel free. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Anything else? >> Thank you so much. All right. Next up, I am playing the role of Eric tonight because he had to go off and get married. >> We are very happy for him. He's on his honeymoon. >> Um, okay. So, first we had two Freedom of Information Act requests, one from South Cook News and one from Smart Procure. Both of them have been completed for our statement of expenditures. The summer pay

023has been completed and all FY25 payments made in July and August went into the June expenditures report. It's also important to note that um we are completing our audit currently and so these numbers reflect current numbers, not audited numbers. Um our statement of revenues remained relatively flat and we had received some EBF money and then miscellaneous grant revenues. Um, informationally, um, as many of you may have been following recent updates with title funding, we have, uh, received our allocation numbers for next school year. However, we don't have those dollar amounts in our bank account. Okay. Um, so we will continue to keep you updated on the status of those allocations. Um, and then last, our fund balance report. As a result, our fund balance has gone down from last month, which was expected and is

024very typical when we do our last payment for this um end of school year. And then please note again that these are unawited numbers for FY25. And once the audit is complete, we'll have our auditors come out as they typically do and provide the board a final report. Um but we're excited. We're we're trending and continue to trend in the right direction. Can I put in a followup question for Mr. Grossy when he returns? >> Yes. >> I noticed a 20% variance on the transportation budget year-over-year. I was just curious what changed for that to >> I don't want to mix but I will preferentially say it has a lot to do with special education transportation. that I will verify with him. >> All right. >> Okay. >> Public comment. >> Are there any green

025cards? >> We have none. >> No public comment. What a shocker. >> I'll read really fast. >> All the people here. >> Per board of education policy 2230. A few reminders specifically about the logistics for the public comment portion of every meeting, including this evening as is posted on our agenda publicly for every meeting to respect all of our stakeholders or commenters. Our board, our public, we adhere very closely to a three-minute time limit for everyone. We will set a timer. We expect everyone to respect their three minutes. In addition, we do not respond to public comments at board meetings, but we hear them, we respect them, and we listen to all stakeholders and take into account community members concerns. If there is a specific question that comes up that we can't respond to, we

026will do so after the meeting in a timely manner. >> All right. Maybe I could put that right on that slide and just like >> Mr. David Shepard, could you please provide us with the Arrow governing board report? >> Sure, sure. Sure. I attended the ARO governing board meeting and here's what happened. Um, Bill made a report that staffing is looking good. This is going to be possibly the first year he's going to open the doors and everything is where it is. They don't they're not all the way up to staffing, but it's not in any kind of critical where they need to, you know, reach out and get other people to come in. So, that was a real positive. Um, they resolved the union grievance, not to go deep into it. It was about

027bringing in contractual people, not, you know, letting other people go for positions for hiring and the union and blah blah blah. It was minor. The language was minor. They could have did over phone call. Truthfully, it was crazy. um problem. They are completely out of room completely and to the point now that they have to start for the first time turning away students that's actually part of the co-op. So they said they reached out to of course elementarymentaries that's part of the co-op looking for room trying to find some room someplace and Bill just said there's just like no more room left and it's it's hard on him to turn away you know individuals that are part of this but there's just like no more room left. So again, they asked us to put out

028the appeal. If you find a room or something that they can use, please let them know because they're completely out of room now. >> Um we signed the budget. That was, you know, just kept on going. Uh kitchen, good news. Uh if you remember or recall the kitchen incident, >> O'Neal will bring you up to speed. They um they have a beautiful kitchen over there. Beautiful state of art. Lovely >> state of the art. First two years it was empty because they couldn't get anyone to bid to come run the kitchen. So they did a contractual service that was bringing in meals. However, they had a problem with the plumbing. Called out a company. Company poured some chemicals down the drain, covered the drain up and basically exploded. So chemicals went all over the place.

029Um all over the new shiny equipment that was never used, all over the floor and everything. So good news is is the insurance company has taken up the claim. So, the insurance company's going to pay. They approved the individuals that's that's doing the the general um contracting of getting the kitchen back together. Uh they did replace the pipe. So, the pipe is gone. Now, they're working on the floor. Unfortunately, they tried to get uh companies to come out to clean the floor. The staining is just too bad. So, they're going with um a overlay that they're going to put on the floor. Um forgot what they call it, but they're going to pour it and then it's just going to >> seal everything in and turn it a dark color with a floor be. and

030they said that it should be up and running before the new school year starts. So, that's a plus. Um, they did not say whether they had somebody to run it yet, but they did say it's going to be repaired and up and running by then. Um, last but not least, there is a lawsuit stemming now from that transportation incident. >> Bring you up to speed on that. There was an incident several months ago uh during transportation. ERA provides transportation for the students that go there. They uh use black trucks basically with drivers. Uh there was allegation that something inappropriate happened on one of the transports between an older student and a younger student leaning on a inappropriate touching kind of level. >> Um it's been several months. They thought everything was fine. Uh the parent

031is suing stating that she told the co-op that um the other kid had a problem basically and that the co-op was aware of it but still let it happen. That's the base of the lawsuit. Uh they are working with um >> yeah I want to say it's that what they're working with. Um, they can't 100% say that everything's going to be okay, but they say with what they have right now, it's it's it's probably going to be okay. They're looking basically to settle it as a nuisance and see where it goes from there. >> And that's >> Sorry. What was the uh result of the investigation? >> We should be careful about what we session. >> Yeah. Yeah. So, yeah, I go too far into details, but just let to know that the lawsuit is

032it's it's out there. Um, that's public knowledge right now. >> Uh, other than that, it was pretty good. They did some minor changes to their website to give more information to new parents when they come in. Kind of like a parent support kind of thing. You can go there and see everything that you need to know about Arrow that if you were like taking almost like a virtual tour. So, and I believe that was it. one bad public comment by uh lady named Kelly, which everyone seems to be very familiar with, >> but it was a public comment and um >> she just was unhappy with the service that her son receives. Um and she blamed it a lot on Bill. So if if you see the video or you get any of the transcripts

033or any meeting minute, you'll see it's in there, but that was the base of it. Um they have reached out to her. They have given her answers on everything. They've tried a lot of things and they're still trying. They're still trying. Um but obviously right now she still feels it's not enough and they said that they'll continue to do whatever they can. It basically um centers around her son which has extensive needs and he's diabetic at the same time and she wants more like um personal nurse for him. They kind of like did that. It was working for a while then but that was a contractual agency and that nurse had to go away. They hired a permanent one because the union is making them i.e. the grievance. Um, and the mom wasn't satisfied with

034the services that her son's received. So, but Bill again, he reassures he's working on it. He gives her the answers, but unfortunately, there may not be the answers she she likes or she wants, but he's going to continue to try to work with as much as possible. And that's the report. >> Thank you, David. Item B, back to school bash possible board donation. So every year for the back to school bash board typically does some sort of a contribution to the uh D124 foundation. It's the foundation that runs it. Correct. >> Yes, that is correct. >> Uh and the board generally supports it in some way. I had asked uh some of our giving and outreach committee members to kind of think on an idea and then they couldn't come today. So, I'm gonna see

035if anybody remembers our donation from last year. I want to say it was it was just cash or was it in kind? I >> I think you did two things. You did a cash donation and then they also do baskets. >> Baskets. Yes, it was a basket. >> And and Sonia can Sonia and I can look that up and make sure if you're comfortable doing something similar. >> Yeah. >> I mean, I I think it's it's always a good >> Yeah. >> show to support our our schools and our community. The back to school bash is something that everybody looks forward to. Um, I know it's an action item for us on here. So, I'm not sure if we're just approving the idea of the donation or if we need to actually have the donation

036settled. >> I think last year we did an approval like up to a certain dollar amount and then u >> I don't know what the dollar like $250 donation and then a certain amount of baskets or like a $500 donation and then like two baskets. It's pretty >> okay. >> Whatever you guys, >> I'm comfortable with either of those amounts. It's not a ton, and if it helps make the event more enjoyable, I'm I'm all for it. Um, do we want to say 500 cash >> and then uh couple of baskets? >> I thought you wanted to do something entertaining like the You want to be a part of the dunk? >> Oh, and the dunk tank. >> Yeah. >> Well, I can certainly donate my time, but I don't think it requires official action.

037They are not doing a dunk take this year. So, you got out of that one. >> Hey man, if it's as hot as the back to school bash usually is going. >> Um, okay. So, then we'll put that on there uh on the consent agenda. >> $500 and then two baskets and then possible participation in a tank. >> Yes. >> And you have an amount for each basket like you want. Are they generally just like it's a it's like a themed basket that has like a spa day and then they buy items for it and then raffle it off. So >> yes, like Yeah. >> Yeah. The the Target basket, right? Oh, yeah. That was a hit. Oh, that Target basket was a hit, man. >> They put like gift cards like gift cards and

038whatnot. >> Sonia, if you're the one that generally does it, how much do you think is required for a basket that is of quality and catches the eye? >> I would say maybe like 100 or 150 >> per basket. >> Yes. >> Okay. So then do we want to say 750 total, 500 cash and then 100 for a b 100 for each basket two baskets? >> Is this strictly for a foundation? >> I want to say it is foundation. >> This is strictly for the foundation. >> So the foundation raises all the funds for the event and then they have their own bank account essentially that's not associated with the district and then all of that funding goes back to our kids. So, for example, um they bought the Gaga pits at pretty much all

039of our elementary buildings. And oftentimes the building principles will meet with their building leadership teams and they'll deter determine collaboratively together like what are we going to use our foundation funds on >> Yeah, they do a great job in making sure like it's equalized across the district. >> Okay, sounds good. >> Comfortable with it. I thought about those t-shirts. >> What t-shirt? >> We had some t-shirts left over from the U parade. >> Yes, >> we can definitely get more made. >> I mean, and just either raffle them off or just pass them out. I just It'll be a lot to pass out, but but maybe maybe have >> a t-shirt cannon >> or we could basket. I was thinking that as well. >> We have any extras? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> I did

040tell my kids those were limited edition. >> Backtrack that one a little bit, I guess. >> Okay. Well, that'll come up later for the actual voting on the item number. >> Okay. >> Uh item C, joint annual conference attendance. Okay. So, our IASB annual conference is the third weekend in November. this year. That's the 21st through the 23rd. Um, all board members are encouraged to participate if they would like to. Uh, particularly to our newest board member, if you're able to, even just like for a day, I think it's really valuable for new board members and, you know, for longer tenure board members, it kind of is what it is in terms of an event, but we're all welcome to go. We have it in our budget to do so if you would like to.

041Sonia is so gracious and sets us up with our lodging and tickets and everything. So just reach out to her uh after the meeting or in person and she can help go. >> I think again email >> double check. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> I think I did. >> Great. It's worthwhile attending uh at least once I think. Moving right along. Action items. Consent consent agenda. Item one. Approve monthly transaction reports for June 2025.
