001Imraniance to the flag 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. >> Good evening everyone. Thank you for coming. I know all of us are busy uh at this time. Anyone who has anything would like to address to the board, please feel free to get up and do so. update. You want to just you want to just leave it ahead. >> Well, I just looked at it and realized I don't have my policy update. That's why >> people walk away from you all the time. Yes. [Music] >> Really? >> I think we actually Sorry guys. >> Could you at least call the next time? >> I almost wore those same exact. It must been him and my wife
002cuz I've not been in a mall in 30 years. >> I would know what it's about. >> All right. I I apologize. Um been a very busy day and uh I just looked down and said, "Oh, policy first read." Now, I did send it in the Friday report. If you have questions, ask, but I'm going to quickly go through uh in the order that's on my phone. I apologize not the same order but the first one is 6700 uh purchasing um and that was um really coming from Mr. quoting to the policy committee. Um we just are upping the thresholds for um how many quotes we need. Um and really just to make life more efficient in that department, right? Uh so we're going from uh right now we're moving it from 2500 to 5,000
003up to 5,000 to 10,000 to get two written quotes uh from uh from 5 to 10 over 10 for three written quotes. And if you're less than uh 5,000 now you would need no quote. Right now it's 2500 and it's just ending up with inflation everything everything's more than 2500. So it just ends up uh a lot of unnecessary So that was the purchasing one. Uh school meals, school meals really we uh revamp a whole policy because we are a community eligibility uh plan school which means um because of our free and reduced lunch numbers. Um every student gets a a free uh lunch and breakfast. Uh and so NISBO was pretty clear if that happens and you change your whole policy. So it's really just the paragraph that uh includes that. You saw that
004in the credit report. Notice of meetings was no change. That's the first one there. 2340 versus Rishi. No change. Just had to be reviewed periodically and we hadn't reviewed it uh since 2018. So it's just uh what we always do. has to put something out within 72 hours prior to the meeting and then can't make that as soon as graduation ceremonies. We had a uh a good discussion on that at the policy committee. Uh the main changes here actually it's it's two of them. It's actually three of them. It's 4772 4772R and 4773. The main change from NISA from the state is, and we've talked about this already, u the special ed students now can stay till 22. Forever the rule has been to age 21 or if they've gotten their reg diploma. Now it's
005up to 22. So that's the change throughout those three policies. But in doing that, we also talked about what we talked about here at the at the table a few meetings ago, which was um participating in the graduation ceremony. And so we had some discussion. Um you could see the wording in u in the Friday report. If you have any questions, we go back. But um the really the main changes from NISBO were those uh and we use NISB's language about the graduation ceremony itself. Uh child abuse is the last two 5460. Uh there was a lot of shalls to wills and Aaron will tell you how important that is legally. Uh shall in a legal term is um a must. It's got more power than will. I don't know why but it does. Um
006and so Uh there was some wording here about searches in child abuse. Um and NISBA is recommending to pull it out of our code of conduct and put it in this policy. So we did that. We left in the code of conduct. So it's in both places right now, but next year we'll uh because we had already approved the code of conduct, we will pull that out of there. And then they changed the um some of the mandated reporters. They've added a social worker. I've added athletic coaches. Uh so a couple of the categories there have changed about who's mandated. Um that's it. Uh really not a lot of substance there. Uh the good thing is policy committee uh we had two meetings in the last few months and uh all caught up. We just
007got an update from NISBA like three weeks ago and so that'll be the next one that we do in the fall. questions on any of that and certainly if you have not had a chance to look at last week's Friday report that had those changes and take a look if you have questions at any time I'll answer them next. >> Okay, thank you Mr. Carlos.

Very cool. >> I was talking to someone and they were saying um about our district and they said, "Well, what do you what kind of sports do you offer?" I said, "What kind of sports do we offer? We offer you name a sport." He started like throwing out golf. Yeah, we got it. Yep, we got it. And I'm like, we've got it all. And I said, we really need to market that. And I think we should get more tuition, too. just to throw that in the morning. But I mean, you go to the other schools and they don't realize that there's still golf going on here. We've got boys and girls
013tennis. They they haven't, you know, I was like, "Yeah, we still do."
