001All right, welcome everybody. Whoa, >> sorry. Hot mic. I can't uh I can't help myself but project. Sorry. It's part of my day job. Um, welcome everyone here. This is Monday, November 10th, 2025. Welcome to our regular uh Oakwood Board of Education meeting. And Miss Saber, could you take the role? >> Miss Dorenzo, >> here. >> Miss Kawaii >> here. >> Dr. Middleton >> here. >> Mr. Ryder Garcia >> here. >> Mr. Wilson >> here. Would you all please rise and join us in our pledge of allegiance? >> I pledge algiance 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. >> All right. Could I get a motion, please, to adopt tonight's agenda? >> Second. >>

002Miss Auburn. >> Miss Dorenzo. >> Hi. >> Miss Kawaii. >> Hi. >> Dr. Middleton. >> Hi. >> Mr. Brader Garcia. >> Hi. >> Mr. Wilson. >> I. Okay. Could I also get a motion to approve the meeting minutes of October 13, 2025 regular board meeting and work session? >> So move. >> Second. >> Miss Sabre. >> Who is the second? Sorry. Okay. Uh Mr. Ryder Garcia. >> Hi. >> Miss Dorenzo. >> Hi. >> Miss Kawaii. >> Hi. >> Dr. Middleton. Hi. >> Mr. Wilson. >> I. >> Next up is item F. public hearing for comments regarding retire rehire of Paul Stone, Amanda uh Aimer, Karen Lauderbach, and Scott Gouty. Uh we will now open the public hearing as required by Ohio law regarding the proposed reemployment of a retiree in accordance with Ohio Revised Code

003section 3307.353. The Oakwood Board of Education is holding this public hearing to allow input on the proposed reemployment of the following. Paul Stone, Oakwood High School math teacher. Karen Lauderbach, Oakwood Junior High School math teacher. Scott Gaudy, sixth grade math teacher. I'm sorry, sixth grade teacher. And Amanda Amr, uh, Oakwood High School social studies teacher. This hearing provides opportunity for members of the public to offer comments on the issue of reemployment. Please note that this hearing is limited to receiving public input. If anyone wishes to address the board on this topic, please state your name and address for the record before making your comments. Are there any public comments tonight? Seeing as there are none, this concludes the public hearing on the proposed list of retire rehire employees. This takes us to item number two,

004reports and public comments. >> Yes. for my superintendent report. Um, I'd like to uh ask uh Karen Lauderbach to to go to the podium. And as she walks up uh to be recognized, um I am thrilled to recognize Oakwood Junior High School's Karen Ladderbach, the recipient of the prestigious Linda M. Gojack Award for the Ohio from the Ohio Council of Teacher Mathematics. Um this accolade honors exceptional middle school math teachers across Ohio. and we believe it has found um its perfect recipient in Karen. A teacher whose profound impact extends far beyond the classroom. Karen is the epitome of dedication and positivity, possessing an extraordinary ability to inspire a love of learning in her students. Whether she's guiding them through Desmos explorations or facilitating critical thinking tasks at the boards um or offering extra support, her

005commitment is unwavering, ensuring every student has the ability and the opportunity to grow as a thinker and a problem solver, fostering invaluable confidence in her ability to tackle challenges. Um beyond the classroom, Karen is a true lifelong learner and a fierce advocate for continuing uh professional developments, actively serving on our district's uh PDC. She's also been a driving force behind transformative initiatives including leading book studies on influential works like the mathematical mindsets and building thinking classrooms as and as an instructional leader. She emphasizes fostering growth mindsets where mistakes are embraced as learning opportunities promoting collaborative inquiry based learning and empowering students to critically understand the world around them through the lens of math. Um just truly appreciate her. I get a chance to uh visit her in her classroom at times. Um kids are are

006are always being stretched in their thinking. Um, and I've seen um just uh got a chance to attend the actual OCTM dinner where she received uh her award and uh just to hear the kind comments that came from other other people that have worked with her was just pretty uh pretty cool to see. So um asked her to give a couple uh of words just to share and then we'll have a certificate for her. We'll have her come up and board members if you'd like to come around we'll get a picture. Well, since you have said say a few things, um, I had to write kind of a reflection after I was nominated. So, I can read a couple of those things if that's okay. Um, so, uh, I was very fortunate to have received

007excellent math education instruction at the start of my career. Um, Johnny Hill was not only my adviser at my university and also yours, um, but he was also my methods instructor. I learned from the get-go about how to teach mathematics for meaning and through a problem based approach. As I continued on this journey as a participant of the Ohio Project Discovery at Ohio State during the summer between my first and second year as a middle school teacher. Um I did take a year leave and then I went back to Miami working for Dr. Hill again. Um in my master's research project focused on constructivism as a learning theory. Um but also I've been super lucky um over the years to be able to work at school districts that have supported um using inquiry instruction. I've

008also had access to great curricular materials um that have really supported this type of instruction and helped um reach reach those goals. Um much of my uh professional growth as a teacher has continued to move forward with this foundation. Around the 20 year mark in my career, I certified as a national board certified teacher and I've also worked with Mrs. AR to reertify. Um so I am certificate holder. Um let's see what else did I want to say? So you kind of mentioned the book study etc. Um so and then over the um last few years I've tried to implement many of the things that we did in the book studies. Many of them started with OCTM summer studies that they have. Um but so I just like to close by saying it's my hope

009that the students I've taught over the years have left my classroom seeing the value, importance, and beauty of mathematics. Additionally, it's my hope that my colleagues that I've worked with over my career have considered to me to be a supporter, an advocate of um and a mentor of effective and worthwhile medical professional development just like was modeled for me. >> Thank you. >> If the Yep. If the school board Yeah. The whole school board, it's fine. Okay. And in keeping with my report, I wanted to give you an update on the artificial intelligence task force. You've heard uh asked about um and probably received some information. Obviously, things are going on from a national international uh spotlight on, you know, how are we going to navigate artificial intelligence. Um well, I'm pleased to share that

010we have an update from our AI committee group, which met for the first time last Tuesday during the district's dedicated professional development time. This committee is the next step in our efforts to employ AI in support of our shared vision and mission. When we talk about the idea about together we learn, together we achieve and together we prepare students for tomorrow. Uh the committee led by Jenna Hill and Matt Sprro is structured and led by the AI thought leaders program which serves as the foundation for creating our AI vision and an integration roadmap and in part u partnership with district leadership is facilitated by forward edge. Ford Edge's uh professional trainers developed and lead Google's own training nationwide working with school districts as well as universities such as NYU, Notre Dame, Carnegie Melon, UCLA and

011at conferences like the international society for technology and education conference ISTY uh as experts in the education of implementation of AI. Uh the AI thought leaders program uh equips staff to leverage AI both safely and effectively and this objective is broken down in four core areas. building AI literacy, growing AI skills, creating AI guidelines, and leading and collaborating within the district. So during the first meeting that last week, the committee focused on establishing a foundational understanding of AI. Uh the team first uh started with an introduction of AI. Then they moved to understanding AI capabilities and limitations. They wrapped their time with the best practices of using large language models, LLMs, um for that. So we're excited. We'll continue to kind of share updates as that goes forward. It is not a u destination I

012would say by any means. Uh you know as as they take a look at developing guidelines and a road map and a definition. Uh we know that AI is going to continue to change and and and obviously things are going to spread out and so we'll have that uh core team that's going to be able to kind of help navigate things uh from a district perspective and then we'll be able to share that across the district as well. So the goal is obviously our staff to go to a certain level of learning and understanding and then we'll get to a place where we when we feel comfortable to be able to figure out what what does that look like with our students and what what looks to be appropriate. No answers at the time on

013that. We want to make sure our team gets comfortable first. Um but I would say laying a strong foundation is important and we're on the we're on the right road with that. Um would also like to share an update to the portrait of a learner uh process that we've been doing. Uh we're progressing steadily anchored by a deep commitment uh to stakeholder feedback and collective visioning. We've had a number of uh staff feedback, student feedback, community feedback. Um got to share that in the work session and all the different things that are happening in there when it comes to the number of fingerprints that we're having. We're looking for about four to six or seven uh mindsets and dispositions that we would want to identify uh across the district. So, in addition to making sure

014our students are prepared with the uh knowledge from this uh curriculum on uh what they should know and what they should be able to do, this this would be durable skills that we want students to be able to have. And um being able to put those on paper and write those down and and overtly share those things are going to be very important. So, we're we've got a second core team meeting next week or sorry, this week, later this week. Um, we're going to start uh getting some feedback on what's the design is going to look like and then uh the community should be looking for maybe a survey in the next couple weeks to give some feedback to that and we'll continue to makes an iterative process to to uh get to a final

015draft and and then the goal is to be able to u uh make it public and and share it at our uh March state of the schools. We're going to do that again. So, we we'll kind of share it there. Uh PD PD day recap. I'm pleased to provide an update on the highly successful professional development day held last week. Um the efforts spearheaded by our outstanding curriculum director Jeda Hill um whose leadership ensured a high quality relevant experience for all of our staff. Um she works closely with uh her assistant Megan Willis and the um professional development committee. They designed a day that balanced innovative instruction with critical compliance needs. Uh there was a wide array of learning activities that started at at the building levels uh and then went district-wide on STEM training

016uh along with an integration of uh augmented reality. Uh there was a session about that. Um also uh special education continues to be a focus uh uh working through that major focus is also on team building and building level and subject specific alignment with collaborative work. uh we saw staff uh that were able to I I personally believe that when staff are teaching and learning with other staff um it's powerful and you could feel that it was infectious because of that. Um so just really appreciate uh Jenna and uh her assistant in the committee for for putting together such a phenomenal day. Um we had a community coffee update uh community coffee last week. Um I held it uh at Dorothy Lane Market. Um we had heard feedback uh uh through social media to put

017some evening options together and so we've done that. Um no one attended last week's feedback um unofficially or officially. Uh Deb was there to to support um but we haven't had great attendance uh there. And so I'll continue to monitor attendance um and then I'll decide if we I want to continue an evening option. I'll tell you that it just happened to fall on a fall sports banquet that I missed and wasn't able to attend. there's always amazing things that are happening across the district and I'd rather use my time valuably uh being in other places where our our students are um and our community is. So, um not at this time uh cancelling any of them yet, but uh if I don't continue to get um attendance, then I'll I'll I'll look at something

018different for that. And then finally, uh for for my update, I just want to share a little bit about the Rubicon House update, our our district office. Little over two months ago, I made the decision to temporarily relocate our district office from 20 Rubicon Road. Uh the action was a direct response to immediate health and safety concerns that made the historic house an unsuitable work environment. In addition to treating those immediate concerns, we also assess the significant long-standing challenges of the house, including the increasing maintenance costs and the historic home structural and accessibility limitations that are not ADA compliant. There's currently one floor jack in the basement supporting the sagging first floor structure. An additional two floor jacks should be added in another area of the basement to support a significant dip in the conference

019room on the first floor. The house has also experienced flooding and the basement um in the basement along with ongoing issues with the HVAC system and persistent and worsening roof problems. So, the district office serves not only as office space, but it's the primary point of contact for many essential services while also acting as a central hub for district administration. Um it's more than just office space. It provides background checks for volunteers and staff, employment processing and volunteer registration, offers workspace for Oakwood Schools Foundation and the alumni staff, and maintains a conference room for district level meetings, including those related to district operations, curriculum alignment, professional learning, employment, community engagement, lensure verification, and district finances. Currently, we have 12 district personnel uh who are operating out of two classrooms at Smith Elementary, and we're utilizing

020meeting spaces in our other schools across the district as well as in our community. And while this ensures our essential services continue, we've experienced disruption to our efficiency and work that is not a suitable long-term plan. So, over the past two months, we've also been working to find a more uh permanent solution. We evaluated several options, including a complete renovation of the Rubicon House and securing a more suitable space within the while also looking at uh other spaces within the city of Oakwood. One of our top priorities is always to use school funds to support our school, student instruction, and safety. Yet, we also owe it to our community, visitors, and our district staff to provide a permanent office space that is safe, fully accessible, and efficient. Um, after consulting with an architect to determine

021our needs, it became clear that renovating the Rubicon House would not be a wise investment. The building has underlying structural issues that would require significant and costly repairs. And even after spending money to address these areas, we'd still have an office space that doesn't function well for our needs and would still have to incur unanticipated costs that have increased due to the aging house. This doesn't just require additional funds, but also disrupts work activities. After reviewing the available options in Oakwood, I'm recommending a seven-year lease of office space at Sugar Camp. This space will provide a safer, more secure and efficient environment for our staff and our visitors. And at this time, leasing the space allows us to assess our school's facilities to determine if there's a more feasible and long-term option from a for

022a permanent location in the future. Um, if you approve the lease tonight, we will begin the process of transitioning to the new space in the spring and we'll continue communicate this once we are fully settled. Staff and committee members can continue to reach out to us at Smith Elementary School if there are any district level questions or needs that they have. And that concludes my report. Sorry, I'm gonna keep I'm gonna keep going. Uh, next we're going to go to um this we've uh we kind of had a a little bit of a a pause on this, but I'm I'm happy to bring back the curriculum report. Um, this is our first one for this school year. And I'm going to ask Jenna Hill to come to the podium to introduce our um speaker and

023and presenters. >> All right. Good evening. Thank you for your patience. As uh I am, as uh Wendy said, we are three months now on the job on the new job. Uh, and so this is something that I'm very excited to bring back. Uh, and I am very, very excited to introduce uh, Mrs. Amanda AR and her students. She is going to present to you tonight on a relatively new class to Oakwood High School, AP Human Geography. Uh but I'm really excited because there is a student uh development philanthropy um work aspect to it that will come after the AP test that she's going to hit on uh and talk a little bit more about. So I'm very excited Mrs. Amr is here. I have the privilege of working with Mrs. AR in the social

024studies department. So thank you so much and the floor is yours. I'm so excited to be here. I didn't know that there had been a law in this and um I'm just really honored to be sharing my students and their work with you. Um, teaching this class, AP human geography, just for me personally, is kind of a dream come true because I love um all that it has to offer for our students. Um, I started I want to say thank you to the PDC for supporting my training over the last summer. I was um participating in training through College Board for four days and then as part of this program I have five um two-hour meetings, Zoom meetings throughout the school year and we continue with the same cohort group to kind of refine our

025work as we're working with students. So that's a great opportunity. Um these key instructional strategies are really at the foundation of this class. Inquiry, having academic conversations among the students, practicing some critique of their own work and of others work and um understanding how to incorporate feedback, self assessment and reflection, authentic product and audience. So you're our audience tonight. Um we incorporate both traditional AP preparation and assessment and more holistic uh assessments using some of our projects that the students have started. And it's really important that we always include student voice and choice. So our guiding question for this course is how does the interconnectedness of people and places influence patterns in our world? and we're focusing on um several different units. This is kind of a combination of the things we will be studying.

026We've looked at population and migration. We've looked at cultural patterns and we're kind of wrapping that up. We're also going to be examining political patterns, urban and rural land use. And all along the way, we're incorporating geography skills, um you know, knowledge of the world and maps and such, cgraphy. So, we're starting to look at how students can develop their own um maps, digital mapping, which is a great aspect of um [snorts] the modern geographer uh and it's used in a lot of different industries. So, we've started um experimenting with this a little bit um to build skills throughout the year. Okay. I would like to introduce my students here. Uh I would like the students first to focus on um our first project the community brochure and we did this project when we looked

027at um building geography skills at the beginning of the year. So I will introduce my students here. Um one student is ill today. That's Reese Dunnington. So she's not able to be here. We have Nagisa Yoshida, Gwen Ericson and Kim Work. So, uh, I'll hand it over to them. Um so first we made a brochure um as you can see for um the class and the general assignment was to create a brochure that would want that that would make other people want to come into Oakwood. So, it kind of described like a brief history of Oakwood and like the perks of living here and kind of like the history like the fact that we have old houses and that you know some of the places used to be a farm or like there were old

028like NCR um areas and things like that throughout that we also created like different maps and just different events and places. Oh, pardon me. Um yeah, thank you. Okay, so we also created like different and events and places that showcase the benefits of Oakwood. It showed um we also showed how there's like a lot of like close communities and the good education and schools and also just like beautiful landscapes and places to go like how extreme or like Ashley's bakeries or stuff like that and we showcase that in our bro brochure. >> This is uh one part of the assignment is we need to create a walking map of Oakwood. Um, I created this for my group using Google My Maps, uh, which I had a little bit of prior experience with. Uh, all of

029the symbols represent, uh, things in Oakwood that visitors would likely want to visit. And then the small letters, uh, are the places we describe our brochure, uh, and where to find them, as well as a walking path between them. Okay. So that was our first uh experience working in the groups and and um getting into this uh content of you know modern geography skills and then we move to a population analysis report and what's called a baby box. So the students are going to share this with you. I have um some sample population reports I'll show to you as well. So the basically the population report is pretty much what it sounds like. Um it's basically we toast a country and we researched a lot about it especially the different population um declines or growth

030like fertility rates or birth rates and like GDP and all of those kind of things. And we created like a report that showcased all of those things and it related back to what we would make with like the baby box. And the baby box is basically something thing that like some certain countries use to help um support fertility rates as it can include like a home food blanket and like all the essentials you may need to have a baby and like let them have a good growth into adulthood. So we try to kind of create our own idea of a baby box for each of our own countries. Um the one that I researched with my group was China and we looked at the sustainable goals that were created by United Nations, the 17 goals.

031And for our country, we decided that the sustainable goal um of like climate action and gender equality and decent work were really important. So we made sure to include things in our baby box that showcase those things. So that could include like um blankets or we included vouchers so it would be easier for parents to like financially support their child. And also we included like a gender equality book that showcased like gender equality. And we also had like food and like other items. And we had like reusable baby cloths and stuff so we could support sustainability and climate problems and all that kind of stuff. Oh yeah. Yeah. And the vouchers would just like it would help with like um so people because mainly the baby box is to help people with like lower income

032and more people that struggle more to have child. So the vouchers would provide an incentive for that. So we had a lot of different countries explored. This box was for China and it's sort of a prototype, right, of a potential baby box that could be used and China's really trying to increase their population now. So, um they're um focused on um um providing things for families when they're beginning a family. And then finally, the last project we want to highlight is this country geographic magazine where we're looking at cultural patterns and processes. And here's an example. Uh my group is doing Germany mostly because I am German. So uh I have a lot of inspiration for this. Um we have basically we have four layouts that we uh create. One about religion, one about migration,

033one about uh language and culture. Uh I am writing the language ones as I do speak German. Uh and I think it's a very uh cool thing uh to research countries we don't know as much about or countries we do. a lot about and we can share with our classmates. >> So this is a timeline we created of like six key events um in the German uh history. So first we have the fall of German empire because after that that's when German Germany became like an actual like country and formed its own place. Um and then we of course have the unification of Germany and then World War I and World War II which are very significant events that changed um German um Germany's culture and the fall of the Berlin wall um and now

034we have the Russian Ukrainian war. So we try to choose um events that were like throughout um the history not just in one time period although there are more in the 1900s but we tried to choose one that was like in the present and then one was like it was like in the 1800s um try to describe Germany's history and also how like it changed culturally. So, they're still developing these country um geographic magazines. And um those timelines are really key because they're they're like a foundation for explaining the modern culture of Germany by tying it into these historical events for instance. And finally, thank you for being patient here. This is what Mrs. Hill was mentioning. uh my students really don't even know about this so they're at the cutting edge of this information

035but I've applied to be part of this AP with we service program and this program incorporates service learning into the AP courses um it will be you know a pilot year for us but the goal here is to apply what we've learned throughout the school year and then once the students have taken the AP exam they'll be able to participate among themselves in a service project. This year we'll focus on some advocacy campaigns for different um things including a choice of access to health care or food insecurity and hunger. These are two issues that are supported by we service and they also are really well aligned with our content in human geography. So it has real life application. It will be on their AP score report if they successfully complete this. So it's um something

036that just brings the content into the real world after after that test hurdle is is reached. So all right. >> Thank you. Any questions? [applause] >> Yeah. Well done. Very thorough. We appreciate it. >> Yeah, >> these are for us to keep, aren't they? >> Well, the brochure is, but not the balance. >> I think she said it's okay. Yeah. Yeah, she said it's okay. >> Thank you very much. That was great. >> Yes. And I'm going to allow you and uh the gift of being able to be excused if you'd like to. It's a public meeting, so if you want to stay, you can. But if you've got homework or dinner or other things that you need to get to, we just appreciate that you came earlier. Um, but but go ahead and feel

037free to kind of get things get things wrapped up. Karen, also, you can go celebrate, too. We won't be offended. If you leave, we totally understand. Again, we we appreciate you. >> All right. Next up is public comments. And seeing as we have no public comments, uh, next up is item number three, board reports, and seeing as we have no board reports, uh, that takes us to item number four, budget and finance. >> Good evening. Oh gosh, that's loud, too. Good evening. Uh, item 4 A tonight is your normal, uh, financial report that you're accustomed to seeing for the month of October, uh, 2025. Uh and then item B in some revisions to the certificate of estimated resources in the appropriations for fiscal year 26. Um when we approved these in late summer uh or

038very early fall, we didn't have all of our final grant allocations. So that has been updated. And then also we have started the financing process for the OFCC project. So there's some bond work uh incorporated into the the these two documents as well. And so there's going to be more revisions to come because we haven't done the bond sale yet. We've just done the notes, but so know that there's going to be another revision coming probably in the late winter time. But um if you would like uh Mr. Wilson, you could take those together in one action item. >> Can I get a motion for item 4B and 4 C, please? >> So move second. >> Miss Aubber, >> Miss Kawaii, >> Dr. Middleton, hi. Miss Dorenzo, Mr. Wright, Mr. Wilson. >> I And that

039takes us to item 5B. Any un 5B. Any unfinished business? Any new business before the board? That takes us to item number seven, administrative reports and superintendent recommendations. Yes. Number seven, letter A, uh, recommendation, um, is made to approve the amendment to the competitive retail electric service agreement from IGS Energy. >> Can I get a motion for item 7A, please? >> Second, >> Miss Sabre, >> Dr. Middleton, >> hi, >> Mr. Raer Garcia. >> Hi, >> Miss Dorenzo. >> Hi, >> Miss Kawaii. >> I, >> Mr. Wilson.
