Field trips and facility use. >> Yep. In the center of your packet, you have a field trip request. We have one request for 11th and 12th graders to Seymour High School with guidance counselor. Uh I assume that's a career affair. I don't have that in front of me, but I'm pretty sure that's what it is. >> And April 16th, the Louisville Zoo for first and second graders. Then we have a facility request from a class of 1971 for oldtimers basketball game

003on July 11th. Okay, I need a motion to approve the zoo and the facility request. >> Make f say I. >> Same sign against motion carried. No personal items. No approval of donations.

On the right side of your packet, you should have a list of recommendations for Miss Hunt. uh for summer school for 2026 u we are going to be offering again uh summer school reading program for second and third graders who don't pass I read three that is required and then summer a experience uh SAE for 9 through 12 uh recommending Miss Carr uh do the STEM summer reading program and Miss post the summer a uh experience. Do >> you know any how many students will be participating in each program? >> Well,

004are we yet? >> The only one we really have to worry about numbers on is the high school program and we we always have over 15 and that's what's required to uh get reimbursed. I think she had 19 that's going to sign up for this year. >> Okay. I need a motion to approve the summer school calendar and teachers motion all say >> I pass oh determination of hearing >> excuse yeah uh right now I'd like to open our preliminary determination hearing uh we are working on issuing a geo bond to offset our 20 2027 20 28 and 2029 operation cost. It'll be referred to as the project and pursuant to Indiana code. Uh the following information is being made available to the public in connection with Madora Community School Corporation preliminary determination hearing. Uh

005our annual debt service payments related to the bond projects or project bonds uh would put our rate somewhere between 6325% and 63 79%. Our current rate is 325% for 2026. Uh the maximum term of the proposed uh project or bonds will not exceed four years. Uh the total maximum original aggregate principle of the projected bonds will not exceed $365,000. The estimated maximum interest rate in connection with the project bonds is 6%. Hopefully that will be lower when we sell the bonds. And the projected uh the proceeds of projected bonds will be used like I said to offset uh some operation cost for 27 28 and 29 years. Um any owner of real property in the school corporation registered voters residing in the school corporation who want to initiate a petition remmonstrous process against the proposed

006project bonds must file petition uh requesting application of the petition remmonstrous project with Jackson County voter registration office and the board estimates that the operational cost associated with the project will be zero dollars per year. So, we're not adding on to the facility. It's going to cost us more money in in heating and air and those type things. So, at [snorts] this time, uh any public comment? And if none then the hearing is closed. Any other business come before the board? If not, we'll move on. Any items on the board? If not, we move on. Any motion to journ say I. >> Same sign against now.
