If I could have the board members head up to the stage for the awards and any of our staff or students or community members that are receiving the award, if you
002could head over to this corner over here. Mrs. Burwell, give a big wave where you're at. We're going to do our adults, uh, staff members first and then students in grade level order and then our two community members at the end. [Music] Oh, yeah. All right. I think we've got everyone situated. Uh just in case anyone doesn't know, uh we honor students and staff and community members each month as showing their face of a raven. these uh adults and students have gone above and beyond and done great things here at Revena and we just want to recognize uh those each month. Uh this month uh we're going to start off with a staff our staff members. Our first face of a Raven is Miss Beverly Dylan from transportation. [Applause] [Music] Beverly Dylan is a bus
003driver for Ravena School District. She's cheerful and excited for her job every day. Recently, she has taken on the reigns as the new Revena School District liaison for the balloon affair. And for those of you who don't know, the balloon affair happens in the fall as a large festival here. And she's been attending meetings, working on themes for the schools next year. Has been relaying messages back and forth. I did hear that it's theme this year is about flight over here. Sure, you can wait up here. Is about flight and she's got some big plans for all our schools. So, uh we're thrilled to honor her and appreciate all her work as she shows her face of a [Music] raven. Our next member is Mrs. Jackie Ralph, our parent mentor here at Revena School District.
004So as the parent mentor, her position is funded through a grant from the state and allows her to assist families with students of special needs. She attends IEP meetings, offers support to parents as a liaison between the schools and the families and does all these things with grace and dignity. Her extensive background in special education has allowed her to connect with our families and staff. We're thrilled to have her represent us as a face of the Raven for her hard work and [Applause] [Music] dedication. And our final staff member is Mrs. Renee Denophrio. She's a guidance counselor at Revena High School. Mrs. Denofrio was nominated and selected as face for Raven for her positive attitude and dedication to students. this year she's faced a lot of challenges. Um we had a one of our other
005school counselors resign mid year and she has had to step up to the plate. She's done it without complaining. She's done her job and then some um we've found some help for her the last uh for a few days each week but we know that she's put in way more effort and time scheduling and making sure that uh Revena High School runs smoothly. So we appreciate Mrs. Denofriel for her dedication and thank her for being a face of a [Music] raven. All right, on to our students. Uh, Mrs. Coleman's batten with two of them today. Our first student is Parker Hack from Revena [Music] Preschool. Parker is always happy and ready to learn. He greets everyone with a smile. He models how to follow the school rules and he is helpful to both adults and
006peers at the preschool. Congratulations, [Music] Parker. And our other student is a kindergartener from West Park, Fern Cunningham. Fern is an awesome student. She is always posit polite and respectful. She compliments others often. She comes to school with a smile on her face every day. She is so eager to learn new things. Fern is very creative and has a great imagination. She is nice to everyone and has a way to make everyone feel special. Her teach oh her teachers, Mrs. Batty and Mrs. Ben are very proud of her and she's a joy to have in class. Keep up the good work for her. Thank you. Mrs. Coleman, you want to take them through? There you go. No. [Music] No. Come on, Fern. Do we have our Willard student here, Mr. Dockerty? No. No. Okay. All
007right. We're going to go to West Main. Uh, our if you can. All right. Our fourth grade student from West Main is Evan Chai. Chai Ch. I am sorry, Mr. My bad. I get it all the time, too. [Applause] Change. He's a fourth grader nominated by Mrs. Chelle and Miss Cross and Mrs. Brackenrich and Mrs. Studiker. We believe that Evan is a perfect example of a face of a raven by always being respectful, responsible, and in control. Evan is a hard worker who is prepared to face any challenges. He's always willing to help his teachers with classroom chores and offers guidance and assistance to his peers. The teachers look forward to Evan's cheerful morning greetings and heartfelt goodbyes as he leaves each day. Good job, [Applause] [Music] Evan. All right, we've got our next student
008from Brown Middle School, Katie Birfield, grade six. Katie is a role model student at Brown Middle School. She is an all-around amazing young lady. Katie works hard in the classroom and despite adversity in her life, she continues to be a positive light to all those around her. She is caring, outgoing, and kind to all her peers and nothing but respectful to the staff at Brown. Katie has a smile that lights up the room and is always there to support those in need. And we love that she embodies all that a Revena student should be. We're proud to nominate Katie as the BMS face of a Raven this month. Good job, Katie. [Applause] All right. I do want to announce we do had two students who didn't attend tonight. Bradley Dickens from Willard as a second
009grade student. Um and uh says that we're lucky enough to look down and see Bradley on your class roster. You truly hit the teacher lottery. charismic, funny, smart, creative, and let's not forget super super stylish classroom helper, kind friend, responsible role model, and so much more. So, Miss Batty from Willard uh decided that he was an amazing kid that needed to be honored tonight. So, Bradley Dickens is our second grade student, and we also had a 10th grader, Prince Brown from Revena High School. Prince recently attended school levy meeting attended by members of the community. He gave a speech had quite an impact on uh Mr. Smith at who attended the meeting. Mr. Smith wrote, "A young man stood before the audience with confidence, pride, speaking from the heart about his journey at Revena High
010School with sincerity. He acknowledged that his path hasn't always been easy. He came from a starting point where opportunities once felt distant. But at Revena High School, Prince found a school that believed in him. He shared how he took full advantage of the programs and opportunities available to him. From academic support to extracurricular involvement as he spoke, his voice carried genuine excitement for what lies ahead. His message was clear. Ravena High School is a place where growth is nurtured, potential is realized, and every student has a chance to thrive. Prince's courage to speak on his great experience at Revana High School and his self- advocacy for his own educational opportunities made him the perfect recipient this month for the high school face for Raven. So, congratulations to those two students. Uh, our final, and we're
011going to have them come up together, are Bill Wnooki and Bill Barber, community members for otherwise known as the bills to the levy committee. These two gentlemen have worked tirelessly on several campaigns. Bill Wnooki is a retired business operations manager here at Revena and a proud grandfather of several Revena students. He's been out in the community speaking with many people on the importance of school levy. And I laughed on his way in. His wife told me that he's more busy now than he was when he was working. So, uh, Bill Barber is a proud parent of two adult Ravena graduates, uh, from Ravena. He's an active member of the community. He's on the main street revena board reed memorial library board and knows the importance of strong schools. He's given a unique community member perspect
012perspective to the levy committee and has provided countless hours towards the campaign. So I want to recognize both gentlemen for their hard work and dedication to Rana schools. Thank you. [Applause] [Music] Okay, we're going to take a brief recess. Uh we'll do pictures out in the cafeteria. Um once we're done with pictures, um you're more than welcome to stay, but don't feel obligated. If you need have something to do or want to go, you're more than welcome to do that at the end. Um if the students can bring their plaques up to the pictures, that would be great. Thank you. Okay, we're ready. Okay, next are the uh treasures update and the superintendent update. All righty. So, um first of all, we on Monday, April 14th, last week Monday or is it two weeks? two
013weeks ago, Monday, uh we had a public board of education special meeting where um I presented our spring five-year forecasts and assumptions. Uh these documents are available on the Ravenous School District website under the treasurer's department. Those reports are available. Uh please keep in mind that the 5-year forecast is um based upon the governor's proposed budget and we will have amendments once we get the final budget on June 30th. Secondly, um Mr. Dr. Ryland and myself on Wednesday, April 23rd, uh joined a meeting with the Portage County Treasurers and Superintendent uh with um Senator uh Christina Rogner from district 27 on discussing um fin um budgets for school districts. Um the items that we talked about were the carryover amounts um the school budgets with the fair school funding versus guaranteed funding and um calculation
014of the 20 mil floor. Um so uh right now um in February school districts released the governor's proposed budget at in April the house um released their version. Right now the Senate is composing their version and then there'll be closed sessions in May between the Senate and the House and then on June 30th we will have a signed governor's budget and then after we receive the budget we will amend our forecast to align with the governor's bienium budget. That is my update. Okay. Thank you. Okay, superintendent. All right. Um just have three things that I'd like to acknowledge. Um, first of all, all schools reapplied for their Purple Star designation um and earned those renewals um for working with uh veterans and families of the military. So, we're proud of that. All I'm sorry, all
015six buildings um not five. Um also just wanted to acknowledge spring sports are in the middle of swing of things. Um we've seen some um increased success at softball. They just uh recently won three league games last year, which they have not done in a long time. They're sitting at five and five in our league competition this year right now, which is a big improvement from where they're at. Our boys and girls track teams also placed second at the Jeep Davis Invitational at Barberton last weekend. Really strong showing. As well as the weekend before, the boys placed second at the Don Fay tournament at Crestwood. So, we're having some good success here in the spring with our uh spring sports. Um, also I just wanted to mention May Friday, May 16th is our day of
016service as well as our special education dance for the county. Mrs. Haynes has worked extremely hard to prepare for the dance. This year's theme is superheroes. Um, and then um Mrs. Ganow at the high school as well as the staff have been preparing for all of our students to go out and give time back to our community on the day of service. So, we're really proud of those two things. Thank you. May we have the reports of the um board, the Maplewood Report. Okay. Well, on uh Thursday, we went to see the electrical program that Maplewood has. It was so impressive. Not only did the kids learn how to wire and and uh do all of the normal things you think of that an electrician does, but also they do mechanical type things like um
017I guess they call it electrical machinery. And they also when they get out of school will be able to work on things like elevators and uh escalators. uh the big buildings where they have the big fans, all the that kind of electrical equipment that uh we never think about, but somebody has to maintain it. And these kids are learning how and when they come out, they're they're going to come right out into jobs and uh they're going to be able to make decent money. They did have one student who had gone to Maplewood and he took the journeyman's test right out of there. He did not have to serve the four years as a journeyman. He went right into being an electrician, got his license, which was amazing. And the students that were there talked
018about what they were going to do in the future, and they really had big plans. uh one of them was going into well two of them were going to college and uh one was going to become uh an electrical engineer or hope to become an electrical engineer and um the other one I I can't remember what he was going to do but these kids were really excited about school and they they were they loved going they could hardly wait to get up this is what they were telling is that they could hardly wait to get up in the morning and get to school. So that was really an impressive program. And after the meeting, we went to the National Honor Society induction ceremony for the Maplewood kids. And we had three Ravena kids who uh
019were uh honored. One of them was Serena Everheart. Uh another Oh, wait. She's a current member. I'm sorry. Uh and then the inductees, the senior inductee was Kenny Kennedy Miller. And the um two juniors were Rebecca Mingo and uh Devin Morgan. And that was really a nice ceremony to see these kids honored that way. And they all had big plans after after they graduated. Um we had several perfect attendance students. uh Kaden Doppel Howard, Christian James, Edward Misa, Rebecca Mingo, Ian Owens, Ellie Turino, Preston Vargo, and Dakota Dakota West. And you've probably heard me read their names before because they really have um done well at Maplewood. And we had eight seniors that were on the honor roll and 18 juniors that were on the honor roll. That's my maple wood maple wood report. Okay.
020Thank you, M. Thank you, Mrs. Seaman. Um there's no parks and recreation report this month. Um next are the reports of the treasurer. Oh, yes. Um I have a consent agenda items 12A 1 through 7. Um A1, approval of the minutes from the March 17th meeting. A2 approval of the minutes from the March 17th business meeting. A3, approval of the April 14th special meeting. A4, recognition and acceptance of gifts and donations. A5, approval of then and now payments. A6 is a creation of a new public support account. And A7 is a approval of a GPD employees foundation field trip grants that was awarded to the district. Okay.

Eight is the approval of the amended official certificate of estimated resources. A nine is the approval of supplemental appropriations for FY25. And A10 is the approval of the certificate 412. Okay. May I have a motion to approve consent agenda items 12A 8 through 10? So moved. Second. Roll call. Mrs. Calhoun. Yes. Mrs. Dennison. Yes. Miss Dukes. Yes. Mrs. Seaman. Yes. Mr. Wizooki. Yes. Motion carried. Next are the reports and recommendations of the superintendent and other administrators. Thank you. Uh the first resolution is a standalone. Uh Mrs. Coleman is requesting the board approve the use of a new sliding scale to obtain uh financial information from parents and um this
022new scale will provide more evenly distributed sliding scale for parents at the preschool. It is based on early childhood educ education grant, early childhood education grant. Um, and we use this with the federal poverty guidelines. Okay. So, may I have a motion to approve the resolution for preschool to use a new sliding scale for financial information item 13A1. So, move. Second. Roll call. Mrs. Calhoun. Yes. Mrs. Dennison. Yes. Mrs. Dukes. Yes. Mrs. Seaman. Yes, Mr. Wazooi. Yes. Motion carried. Uh, resolution number two, uh, I am recommending the board approve a new resolution from the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce to adopt the 2025 model policies for special education model policies and procedures to be consistent with existing state and federal laws and/or case law. This will replace the original policy adopted by resolution number
0231612602 which was um 9 years ago per ODW. Um and this is recommended also from Niola. Okay. So I have a motion to approve resolution for item 13 A2. So moved. Second. Roll call. Mrs. Calhoun. Yes. Mrs. Dennison. Yes. Ms. Dukes. Yes. Mrs. Seaman. Yes. Mr. Wiznooki. Yes. Motion carried. Resolution number three is to approve the qualifying seniors for graduation. This is an exciting one. Uh we're requesting that the board approve the names and seniors eligible pending the successful completion of coursework and state tests for the graduation on May 27th, 2025 as listed in your agenda. Okay. May I have a motion to approve items 1383, qualifying seniors for graduation? So move. Second. Second. Roll call. Mrs. Calhoun. Yes. Mrs. Dennison. Yes. Miss Dukes. Yes. Mrs. Seaman. Yes. Mr. Wnooki. Yes. Motion carried. Okay. Resolution
0244 is um recommending the board approve the adoption of the following new math curriculum for the 2526 school year for our K12 student population. If I could have a motion first and then I believe Mr. Smith has a few slides to present after the motion. Okay. May I have a motion to approve the curriculum adoption item 13 A4? So moved. Second. Before Mr. Smith starts, I just want to point out, we've had the same math curriculum for about 15 years. And as I'm sure he's going to point out, um most of this uh curriculum adoption is going to be paid for through grant money. Um that would be for all of our kindergarten, middle school, and high school students. And then our elementarymentaries will be paid for out of PI funds, which we're able to
025do, and not touch our operating budget that we are so working on. Thanks, Mr. Smith. Yeah, thank you. Um I want to point out that our our math curriculum we've we've or worked through um looking at quite a few math curriculums. Uh the one that we landed on and ironically it was uh K to2 which is wonderful because it it it carries the same philosophy all the way through is illustrative math. And part of uh adopting a curriculum now is that everything has to be on uh all green on ed reports which is um research uh from the state of Ohio and from the federal government. Um this math math curriculum K12 does do that and meets all of those um criteria. One of the things that we talked about is what what would a
026lesson look like if you were to walk in and you can see that the in the beginning the teachers are talking in the upper leftand corner the teacher would talk to the students about the ideas that they were going to learn the second part to the right there the the students have a little bit of of quiet time to work on their own. That was something that our our teachers really wanted to talk about is like a good balance of of working on your own and working in groups. In the lower right hand corner, um they they they come back to this group discussion idea. And then when they move to the left, they continue to talk as a class of things that they've learned. um there's a a good balance of not only teacher-led
027discussion but interaction with the students and so they're sharing ideas of how they how they came up to a solution. Why is this important and why am I pointing it out? Because when we ultimately when we do take state tests, we're not talking about like this this idea of just memorizing how to to uh solve one specific problem because those test those test questions can change at any time. But when we start learning, oh wait, we can pick up a new tool or a new idea or a new way of of looking at something from one of our neighbors, then our kids can apply those skills to multiple settings. What is illustrative math? It's comprehensive, like I mentioned earlier, it's comprehensive K12 program. It's based on innovation problem solving like I had mentioned. Um it's
028known for its coherence, its rigor, mathematical practices and usability. Um detailed lessons, uh lesson plans are for the teachers. And that that also came up in a question like what if a teacher is sick? We don't want to miss a day. So these lessons are very well laid out in those four components that I mentioned previously. Most importantly, what will stu students have the opportunity to do? This was something that our teachers are extremely vocal K12 on what they wanted. Students will um excuse me, participate in compacted lessons. So, if we actually have classes where, for example, a student in seventh grade is being accelerated in a subject area, they can actually take an eighth grade class. Illustrative Math already has that laid out for them. So, our teachers don't have to to guess what
029um what areas that they may need to fill in. Illustrative math already has that for them. Summer connection. We talk about connecting with our parents. They already have summer packets available to the teachers for the kids. Um they do they're also known for developing their math routines. One of the things that we do know is kids develop better and perform better when their structure and those expectations are consistent and that goes from year to year to year. These are all laid out again with the same philosophy K to 12. They're going to engage in math lessons that are accessible for all students, including our English learners and our students with disabilities. This is extremely important in my area because when we look at our data, we want all of our students, even those children with
030disabilities, to have access to tier one curriculum. And that tier one is defined as what what their general education peer gets right next to them. They still we still want them to have the same rigor that our k our non-disabled students are getting and then though engage in math that is student centered. So traditional math or traditional teaching pedigogy is talked about like really the math teacher or the teacher standing up front and delivering the information. As you look back on the slide that I presented earlier, there is a little bit of both. There is some time for our teacher to talk about and they set the stage and then there's some time for students to work independently and then there is most importantly some times for kids to work in small groups and then
031ultimately bring it all back together in a larger group. Benefits for our teachers. One of the things we know as teachers as our days change and the curriculum changes this gave our teachers or this less or this curriculum will give our teachers the opportunity if schedules have to change and they have to go to from a 60 minute to a 45minute block. Right now we're we're going with the idea that they're going to be a 60-minute math lesson. But if they do have to change it's all laid out right for the teacher. they don't have to second guessess on what they need to to trim away activities and support for professional learning. This has been probably in my three years is is curriculum. One of the things I've noticed is in in education we tend
032to give it what I call a shot in the arm one time PD and then we walk away from something. this will actually have ongoing PD for our teachers because once they get moving into a program then they're going to have additional questions and we find that already we we took our lessons learned from adopting amplifying CLA ongoing assessments for monitoring uh and like I said with our kiddos we have found during DT over my last three years we have plenty of data on behavior we We have plenty of data on attendance. We have plenty of data on literacy. We have nearly zero data in the area of math. And I am excited and and during my job as a as a principal in the curriculum that is one thing I've heard from all grade
033levels. We we can now involve those teachers on this idea of constant improvement over time. The next one is uh like I mentioned is the ongoing professional learning for all of our teachers. So what is next uh for myself as well as our teachers? We're going to uh Kristen and uh Ben and I are are going to sit down and Chris Rutherford on Thursday. We're going to begin ordering those materials and get those going. We're going to set up professional development um prior to the start start of the school. the teachers felt that that might be more beneficial. Um, and we're going to identify any necessary supports, not only just for the teachers, but the principles on how to manage that and and what we can do is collectively as a district and as a
034building to support our teachers. Um, and how do we help our families? anytime that there is a new curriculum put into place, um, our families may struggle to to understand like what are those expectations? What do they look like? So, our goal is that we have all those things in place prior to the beginning of the school year so we can begin to communicate that out to all the necessary stakeholders. And that's it. Any questions? I just want to thank Mr. Smith for presenting today. This is a long plan that we have ahead of ourselves that we developed this year to make sure that we're reviewing every curriculum every seven years. Um there's a rotation that we're going to be working through with each subject over that that course time. So, um, some of the
035larger ones are going to be standalone in a year, like language arts and math, but, you know, health and art are not as big of a curriculum for us. Um, we'll do a couple of those in in one year as on that seven-year rotation review. Okay. May I have a roll call? Um, Mrs. Calhoun, yes. Mrs. Dennis, yes. Miss Dukes, yes. Mrs. Seaman, yes. Mr. Wizooki, yes. Motion carried. Thank you. The last resolution under business uh items is number five. Um this is a resolution for purchase of 300 Chromebooks, licenses, and hard shell cases from CDW government. Um this is going to be funded through our PI. We have a great technology plan so that each of our students are receiving uh one-on-one Chromebooks. Mr. Nukem has come up with a plan. This would be
036purchases for first and seventh grade. Um the first grade would take them all the way to seventh grade and the seventh grade through graduation. And this model will uh allow us to update through that entire time um while we have those Chromebooks. Okay. May I have a motion for approval um for the purchase of our Chromebooks licenses? Second. Roll call. Mrs. Calhoun, yes. Mrs. Dennison, yes. Miss Dukes, yes. Mrs. Seaman, yes. Mr. Wiznooki, yes. Thank you.
