All right. Uh, Miss Brooks, we got recognition of career and technology education month. >> Thank you for being with us. >> Thank you, Chairman Shields, members of the school board, Mr. Mayhew. I'm honored to acknowledge the recognition of Career and Technical
005Education Month for Pennsylvania County Schools. As you know, February is Career and Technical Education Month, a time to celebrate hands-on learning, realworld skills, and career pathways that CTE programs provide to students across Pennsylvania County Schools. These programs connect classroom learning to industry standards, spark curiosity through applied problem solving, and empower learners with certifications, internships, and the confidence to enter today's workforce or to continue their education by blending technical knowledge with critical thinking and teamwork. CTE opens doors to high demand careers, supports our local economy, and ensures every student has a clear, supported route to success. We honor the dedicated CTE teachers, industry partners, and students of Pennsylvania County Schools whose passion and commitment turn classroom learning into meaningful career opportunities for our students in our community. Here are some of the very many examples of
006these learning experiences. There's no better way to start a celebration than with a cupcake war. Dan River High School's independent learning class and Dan River Middle School's fax classes both held cooking competitions this first semester. First place was the yellow cupcake with buttercream icing and second place was the gingerbread cupcake with buttercream icing. As you can see, the bottom three were fierce competitors. Culinary arts students at PCTC took the Serve Safe Manager exam in October. This class had a first time 93% pass rate. Students served the automotive service excellence lunchon and staff at PCTC the Thanksgiving lunchon. Students prepared a sitdown dinner for 45 of the schoolboard office employees and students will head to the state competition this month to compe to compete in multiple categories at the ProStart Invitational. Those examples of family and
007consumer science courses can lead to pathways in human services, counseling and mental health, education and child development, family and community services, and personal care services. Pennsylvania County Schools has a robust offering in this area at the middle and high school level, both at the Bay Schools and at PCTC. In December, 10th grade students at the STEM Academy completed a course sequence in health science and earned an industry credential. 100% of those students passed their workplace readiness test. And this is a collage of their completion ceremony. Next year, the STEM Academy will transition to the health sciences STEM Academy where students will apply to be admitted into the nurse aid program or the sports medi medicine medicine athletic training program. The nurse aid program will end with the opportunity for students to um sit for the
008nurse aid license. and the sports medicine um athletic training program will end with students having the opportunity to sit for the National Academy of Sports and Medicine personal trainer exam. Pennsylvania County has a rich history in agriculture and a very strong foundation in agricultural education. Students at Chattam High School competed in the state fair and small engines and tractor troubleshooting contests. And students at Tonsl High School competed in the South Ridge Forestry event after winning the Pennsylvania County Federation forestry event at the White Oak Mountain Gain Reserve in Chattam. Not only are teachers, students, and stakeholders actively involved in future farmers of America events, a concerted effort is made to expose students to potential careers in pathways related to agriculture in these areas. The Agra business, animal systems, power, structural and technical systems, and natural
009resource systems just to name a few. Many of these courses are the gateway to fields of transportation and logistics, trade and industry, and many other lucrative and exciting careers. Technology teachers at the middle school level completed their technology education lensure requirement last spring and now they are fully licensed technology education teachers. They teach career investigations and connections, inventions and innovations, and technological systems using the Goatee supplementary materials and tools along with other resources. And here's a student using a welding simulator. At the high school level, students are able to take coursework in technology education, which is often the stepping stone into careers in engineering, manufacturing, and architecture and construction. Here, students at Chadam High School in the technology manufacturing class use the engineering process to engineer components for students at Grand High School to assemble
010in the manufacturing class as they make a tenseity structure. This is where students are assembling the project. The tense structure is on the right. This is just one of the many projects that is an example of the high level of professionalism and collaboration that is an integral part of Pennsylvania county schools. The teacher at Gretina High School happened to be a long-term sub at the time and the high school technology team came together along with members of Gretina High School agriculture to be certain that the technology students at Gretina High School had a meaningful experience. At Tontol High School, students also apply technical skills in the materials and process classes that are also technology classes to build structures as an initial skill in the pathway to courses related to trade and industry and architecture and
011construction. Many students from the technology classes at the Bay Schools move on to PCTC to take course work in welding, precision machining, industrial maintenance, um industrial robotics and robotic systems, HVAC, and now carpentry. These are only a few of the many projects taking place at PCTC and only a few of the many pathways that are available there. PCS also offers students a variety of coursework in business and information technology. Here, Gretina High School students learn how to balance equations and accounting with M&M's. Both Dan River High School and Tons High School had both of their business and information technology teachers acknowledged by the wise financial literacy test as gold star teachers. That means that 93% or more of their classes pass the wise financial literacy test, which is quite an accomplishment. Teachers in the business
012and information systems area also teach computer information systems and advanced information systems, which allow students the opportunity to sit for their Microsoft Office credentials, which is a high demand credential. Pennsylvania County Schools level of support for CTE is evident in the high level of collaboration among teachers and grade levels. This is an example of the economics and personal finance class offering a lesson in financial literacy to fifth grade students. And this is Greta High School offering assistance to Gret Elementary. Business and information technology expands as a career in technical education area to pathways related to information and support services, network systems, and coursework in computer networking and hardware, cyber security and law. And these courses are offered at PCTC. And as you can see, our cyber security team at PCTC also won the cyber nights
013showdown again for the second year in a row this past October. In the Pennsylvania County Schools marketing program, students can select from a variety of coursework ranging from exploration to the opportunity to experience highquality work-based learning opportunities. The DECA competition for region 6 was also an opportunity for PCS to offer students realorld application of the skills learned in class in a competitive environment. The four high schools had seven first place winners for our region and those seven winners will move on to the state leadership conference in March. I'm honored to recognize career and technical education month for Pennsylvania County Schools and appreciate you're allowing me the opportunity to share just a few amazing examples of how your support, the support of district leadership, building level support, and the support of our industry leaders enables the
014dedicated teachers of Pennsylvania County Schools to turn classroom learning into authentic realworld experiences for students. Thank you. We'd like to thank you. We uh CT is very alive and well in Pennsylvania County Schools and we appreciate all the effort that goes into that. Thank you. >> All right. Superintendent, you got a couple things to recognize. >> Yes. Chairman, what I'd like to do um like kind of broke this down in terms of our recognitions to each one. So I like what I like to do is my call go over these right. I'll probably have you come up front right here and for a big thank is here to be our photographer today. So, um, of course, CTE month is of course recognized in February, but also in recognition to Virginia, the Virginia school board appreciation
015month. This February, Pennsylvania County Schools honors the dedicated leadership team that serves our communities. The the theme for this year is from strong roots comes endless possibilities which emphasize the goal of providing a firm foundation so that every child can reach their highest potential. So I'd like to begin with first of all recognizing our school board clerks who provide the essential organization roots that keep our governance stable by managing the flow of information. The clerk provides the stability and structure necessary for our board to lead effectively. So, please join me in recognizing our clerk, Miss Jonica Wilson Carter, and our deputy clerk, Mrs. Tracy Worley. We'll have them come up picture. That's one. a little running today. See, our board members represent the constituents of Pisani County. While they wear many hats on their daily
016lives, they serve as the unified team with a common goal. Ensure that our schools remain accountable and our students remain the priority. Please join me in recognize our board members, Mr. Mark Shield, chairman, Mr. Calvin Dolls, Vice Chair, Miss Kelly Merik, Miss Mr. Willie Fitzgerald, Mr. Don Moon, Mr. Kevin Mills, and Mr. George Henderson. You'll come up front. >> You don't mess up. Jesus. One, two, three. And finally, our student representatives represent the endless possibilities of our work. By bringing the student voice directly to the boardroom, they ensure that our policies real in the real world experience of the classroom. Their courage to lead and their vision for the future remind us the daily work and why this work matters. Please join me in graduating our student represent Miss Victoria Chattam High School, Miss Anna
017Skuller Dan River High School, Miss Vivian Taylor Gretland High School, and Miss Caitlyn Hamlet Thompson High School. this table. One, two, three. Word of the month, self-control of Miss Anto from Dan River High Good evening, Chairman Shields, Mr. Mayhew, and members of the Pitani County School Board. I'm here today to present the character word for the month of February, self-control. The definition of self-control is the ability to regulate one's emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, especially in the face of temptation or impulse. Proverbs 25:28 states, "Like a city whose walls are broken through is a person who lacks self-control." This verse reminds us that self-control is a form of protection. When we practice it, we guard our choices, our character, and our future. Without it, it becomes easy to be influenced by anger, distractions, peer pressure, or
018anything that pulls us away from what we know is right. In school, self-control looks like staying focused in class, completing assignments even when we don't feel like it, and choosing respect over disruption. During sports events, it means controlling our emotions in moments of frustration, and representing our schools with maturity. At home, it means managing our time wisely, showing patience with family members, and making choices that build discipline rather than bad habits. Needless to say, self-control is essential for creating positive learning environment and building strong students and staff across Pennsylvania County. When we develop self-control today, we are shaping responsible, resilient leaders for tomorrow. Leaders who can make wise decisions even when no one is watching. Thank you for your time. >> Uh PA, Mr. Hill could not be with us tonight. Um, now we have
019opportunity for see if we have anybody signed up as far as going to get your list >> for the 26 27 budget cycle. >> Jacob, >> Mr. Deer. >> Okay. Um, what you would need to do in that case, Mr. deal is to call uh you can get with Miss Carter after the meeting. We don't just have an open session to speak necessarily. So, you would need to get with her and then we could put you on an agenda for next month to speak. Okay. All right. Thank you. All right. Miss Wley, speaking to those 26 27 budget priorities. >> Good evening, Chairman Shields, board members, and staff. I want to bring to your attention tonight the budget priorities that were approved, I believe January 29th by the budget committee staff met and presented a
020slate of budget um initiatives for the um committee to look at. And this is the list that is being brought tonight uh under new business for you to to vote on for us to move forward with our budget. I won't go over each one individually. I'll just hit the highlights for you, but we do have a um 3 and a half% salary increase effective July 1, 2026. That consists of a 2% cost of living adjustment which is in the governor's budget. Um along with a step increase if the employee is applicable for that. Um we also have some specialty support positions that we would like to maintain in our budget. These positions have been funded by CARES money for several years and then for the past two years all-in funds. Um all of that funding
021will be going away June 30, 2026 and we want to keep those um in our operating budget. We have a few stipens and administrative adjustments for middle school sports. Have a couple of items in there for cyber security and for software. the the Canvas software that is actually a state paid contract, but um we're having to include it in our budget this year because we do not know yet if they're going to pick that up. Um we did that last year as well, and as you know, they did probably in May decide to pick that up for one more year. Um so we're hoping that'll happen again, but we need to be prepared if it does not. We have the metal detectors in there. I think we talked about those in the um work session.
022and the Raptor emergency management system that um Dr. Moon um shared with you today. We have a um fourpost lift for our transportation department. And then we have some maintenance items um refurbishing one chiller per year in our high schools. Hard to believe. I believe they were 200 was it 2009 when we opened the high when we had the high schools. >> Yes. >> Is that right? So it's time to start looking at refurbishing um those chillers there. um replacing gym floors at Chadam Elementary and Twin Springs Elementary, upgrading the water system at Stony Meal, and um some annual operating increase for paving and repair, and some parking upgrades at Chadam Elementary School. That list totals about $4.5 million. What we're looking at from the state um for additional revenue next year is around 2.3.
023Um the county they have been trying to provide about 6% above the local minimum the last few years. For them to maintain that they would need to give us an additional almost $1.3 million for next year. That totals about 3.6. So, when we um present our ask, and that will be next week, to the board of supervisors, we'll be asking for um almost an additional $1 million, about $900,000 for us to meet um the priorities that that you'll be looking at tonight. So, any questions? We we really don't have any new information. Um waiting for budgets from um the House and the Senate. >> Yeah. >> And We'll move forward once we receive that information. >> Okay. Thank you, Miss. >> Everything else is in desk reports. Any questions on any of the desk reports
024that y'all looked at? >> All right, Mr. Mayhew. Superintendent items, >> sir. Got a few things. While that's loading up, I will go ahead and I want to say again, um, thanks, Mr. Brooks for um putting together that presentation in recognition of CTE month February. Um very nice job highlighting what what I most admired is what you highlighted what the um the pathways from the elementary school to the middle school to the high school and then you know what we want to see is what they do when they go out postsecary work. So I think that's very appreciate the work that you've done here. We do have a robust program and support for CT programs. So thank you again. Appreciate that. In fact, several of us today had to go to a um career and
025tech center for the culinary arts. They're getting ready to go to a real big competition in Williamsburg. Um and so some of the meals that they produced, they they I don't think I could ever even make something like that, but they did a very nice job and the presentation they had, I mean, they were just professional. Very, very nice job. Very impressed by that program and several other programs that are there, all the programs there. So, thank you again. We just have a few slides that I would like to go over. Um, I always like to recognition again appreciation to our school board, our clerks, our student representatives. Thank you for your leadership and your work here. It's very important. We all are here for one goal, and that is to do what's best for
026the interests of children and families. Just a few things I do want to acknowledge since we were last together, and it seems like it's it's been a month, but it seems like it's been a while since we had kids on a regular. Nonetheless, you know, um, we've had Vivo's collaborative music program was held at Thompson High December 9th. This event highlighted the musical talents of several our key students throughout elementary Milwood High School and tunnels highen and the staff there and then all the programs and um teachers from all over the county came together for an very nice event that was very wellreceived by their families. They were very appreciative. So I would like to Dr. Robin Haymore, Miss Katie Hawker, her staff doing such a nice job of u you know just had just
027put on a very good event. families were very pleased and feedback was excellent. So thank great work. I think it's the second day and we have another one planned in the spring. Just recently uh before we got out for uh on January 15th rather county had all county band held it annual concert on Thursday at Gretton High School. Um instrumentalists from all four high schools were represented under the guest conductor of Dr. Samuel Rolley. The se selections were excellent um and the students performed superbly. Our director is Mr. Logan Eley from Chattam High, Mr. Max artist, Alison Shelton Gretner High, and Mr. Malik Thompson High School. And then acknowledge of course the work of supervisor for title one instruction programs, Miss Cedric, Mr. Cedric Harrison, assistant superintendent, Mr. Theresa Patty Ford. It's a very, very
028nice event, very wellreceived. Parents were very pleased. Just a great job. On Thursday, January 22nd, Southside Elementary School was honored to host Miss Virginia Madison Whitbeck for a special presentation to fourth and fifth grade students. During her visit, Miss Woodbeck spoke about the importance of making safe and healthy choices both in and out of school. She also encouraged students to um embrace leadership, build self-confidence, and make positive decisions, including how to say no when faced with difficult situations. like to acknowledge um the u good work of our cafeteria school nutrition staff um led by Miss Cara Scott. She's our supervisor with school nutrition. um prior to okay as you as all of us know we have experienced the second winter break um since year um and of course during that time we had to do
029some things in terms of appropriation for the time we were going to be out and so we did provide some food send the food out to the to the children before the um was it three or four storms was it kind of keep those all in line but nonetheless we had several several events several winterry events and then of course we did have an event at north excuse me in the North Gret Greta Middle School and also one at near middle school for food pickup. So the ladies there and the staff that jumped in and helped did an excellent job of making sure that we had opportunities. How exciting to have finally have our students our schools open and students back as of Friday for a two-hour delay and then back on time yesterday and
030today. Again, I will say this is probably one of the first times I've seen a long, long time where we've had that much time off and experienced two winter breaks, but we did and we're going to persevere. I'd like to thank take a moment to thank all of our employees because every employee has their hand in it and they have hard work that they accomplish each day to make sure that we get through these winter storms, the closings, the remote learning days. The principles and administrative staff have provided leadership in their buildings, in their departments, and any areas that they work to support students and families during this intimate weather period. Work included clearing parking lots, sidewalks, checking roads and bus routes, working on buses, working on computers, working on the network, providing remote instruction,
031um, and just main and communicating with families to make sure they knew what to do. when we um implemented some um plan to implement some snow routes as we did. Everyone had part in doing the right thing in supporting our students and families and all of you've done amazing work and I appreciate all the work during this difficult couple of weeks. Um the hard work that you do each day is what exhibits and makes the city county schools a great place to learn and work and we appreciate that. So, of course, inclement weather days, as you see, we've got quite a few days that we have missed, okay, due to reasonable weather. And you can see, um, they're listed. A lot of those are listed as bank time or remote learning days. You notice on
032January 27th, that was a plan A day, and that will be that will be made up on February 16th, the business day. Remote learning days are all throughout there, and they're bank time. As you know, in Pennsylvania County Schools, we do go extra an extra amount of time every day, and we bank some time. So we're able to use some of those in place of having to make a day up. We go 12 minutes over the time. And of course in many cases what you will notice a lot of times once the winter event event took place a lot of times what we did we normally close school plan a day and once we were able to move through that then we would implement remote learning days following that. And then of course you know
033we um we have some situations where we do two hours but nonetheless those are what affected us. So the question we have is that I've met with Miss Patty her staff is what our plans are for addressing this instructional time. So what I have listed here, she um her team has already worked with principles and actually when they work with principles, principles were already working, buzzing and trying to figure out what they were going to do to make sure that we meet expectations because remote learning is a tool, but remote learning is not in place of in-person instruction as you well know. For instance, you have you have CTE um students that are involved with getting hours for boards. They are already working on plans to make sure those students get enough hours so they
034can sit for the boards. Those of you attending governor's school, those of you attending, the work is still there. State testing does not move. You know, the outcomes that we have to complete still are there and we must meet those expectations to address those nine days. Um, our staff has implemented a datadriven intervention plan centered on maximizing classroom time through adjusting the pace of that appropriately, prioritizing core content and it includes after school tutoring, inschool tutoring, dedicated remediation blocks during the school day and some schools have made the grades of doing three and four Saturday sessions to provide access to for students for additional support. Key instructional components include a 45day plan coverage plan targeted small groups um from specialists in the integration of digital tools like Canvas to ensure students remain engaged without being
035overwhelmed. The plan includes chunked assignments, alternate assessments such as projects and strengthens families communication and regular process. level directors are working tirelessly with the elementary, middle, and high school principles and of course our special specialty principles as well to ensure that we are meeting the expectation to supporting our students. So we will be prepared. We will work through this and we will make sure that our students are there. Just a few reminders I'd like to provide for you. U joint budget meeting with the board of supervisors as Miss Worley alluded to is scheduled for February 17th, 2026 at 3:00 and it will be held at the ECC auditorium. 2026 VSBA Hot Topic Conference at the VSBA office in Charlottesville. There's also a virtual option on March 19th. If you are interested in that, just let
036Mrs. Carter know. She can help you get registered for that. The 2026 VSBA spring networking forum is held on March 25th at 4:30 at GW High School. We need to register RScp and registered by March the 11th that you would please let Mrs. Carter know um this is this is your region regional meeting that we have southern southern end and then also that's where you have the VSB art contest. So if you'll just let her know so we can get you registered for that particular event. And last, I'd like to just remind again the 250th day celebration for the nation and Psylvania County will be observed on July 4th. We have revine information and there are schools already involved participating in that and we have a coordinator that's working directly with that committee. Um any
037questions, Mr. Chairman? >> That's all I have. >> Thank you, sir. New business. Uh the budget committee has uh approved and and sending before you um the presentation Miss Worley was made on 2627 proposed budget priorities. So I need a motion to approve that to car before the board of supervisors. >> I'll make that motion. Look at it. >> Motion and second. Any questions? >> Roll call. >> Mr. Fisk. >> Yes. >> Mr. Henderson. >> Yes. >> Mr. Mills. >> Yes. >> Mr. Moon. Yes, >> M. >> Yes. >> Mr. Doss is absent. And Mr. Shields. >> Yes. >> Uh 10 two and 10 three. We've got some uh revision to school board policy. Uh and I'm going to let uh Mr. Mayhew speak to that a little bit. >> Okay. The two policy that
038are before you on 10.2 is revision of schoolboard policy JEC-PC school admission. I'm requesting a way of second reading a final grant grant final appro. reason it's for this um the policy is designed to talk about in terms of admission of students to school and what requirements needed to support the state but there's one thing that's not included here that I think needs to be and that is because we have it does not include some of our specialized program like preschool preschool is grant funded it's not K12 it is the funds that are come that come from that are designed to support at risk programming and there's a criteria for that. So we would like to grant request your approval and the mirror of this is in the regulation which is the next policy JEC-RPC.
039If you will notice it's just indicating that that procedure for admission of preschool students is at it just indicates that is offered by Pin County. The purpose is to reduce disparities among children entering kindergarten to reduce or eliminate these factors that may lead to early academic failure. accordingly according to current local and state guidelines all required requests for enrollment including students of a parent or guardian who employed are processed through an application process. So it's just there just to ensure that we are being you know we are we are you know there's a process for this and that folks have to make sure we follow whatever the current local state guidelines if they change next year or five years from now the policy will stand and make sure it covers all enrollments in from K12
040and preschool. So that's why I'm asking this. We can make sure that we have this in place. >> Okay. All right. We got a motion uh to wave the second reading grant final approval on school policy JC-PC. >> Motion. >> So move second. >> Any questions? >> Mr. Fitzgerald. >> Yes. >> Mr. Henderson. >> Yes. >> Mr. Mills. >> Yes. Miss Mar, >> yes. Mr. Moon, >> yes. >> Mr. Nos is absent. And Mr. Shields, >> yes. >> And I have a motion to wave second reading and grant final approval uh to schoolboard policy JC-RPC.

If I understand it right, it's a u it's just a lot of pallets that's built up and and we need to get rid of them. So, can I have a motion on that, please? >> You said pallet. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Doesn't want them back. We're just trying to get rid of them in um a good one. >> Okay. Yeah. Second. >> All right. >> Roll call. >> Mr. Fitzgerald. >> Yes. >> Mr. Henderson? >> Yes. >> Merrick? >> Yes. >> Mr. Mills? >> Yes. >> Mr. Mo? >> Yes. >> Mr. Dawson is absent. Mr. Shields. Yes. Like
