I would like to um just state for the record that for the 202526 school year, the district is in compliance and enforcing all nutrition standards as outlined in state law and the United States Department of Agriculture regulations. We follow whichever regulations are more strict. U the standards are detailed in board policies for food services, wellness, free and reduced price meals, vending machines and competitive sales. No need just a statement for the record. And then have you been um happy with the food services and the people that we have done a great job. >> Okay. Thank you. Um, old business. I do have a little bit of old business. Um, the last meeting um you had asked some questions about the um Bure Early Childhood Center. So, we did uh get
010our partial occupancy and we have moved things in. I have a couple pictures to show. Uh we have an inspection tomorrow for permanent occupancy and then we can preschool inspector to come in and give the final blessing. Um, but we are mostly moved in and you can see we have a nice schedule like we have in the main building. And then each classroom has some some boxes and some furniture that were delivered from the other buildings. and we are currently working to get those all set up so that we can be ready and uh move in and started when the school year starts. Any questions about the early childhood center? >> Um John B uh buildings no different than the current building we're in. Everything is key safety is the same cameras are in there
011and um we have zero eyes. >> Correct. cameras uh inside and outside the building. The key fob is the same. Um it it can be programmed so that basically however I program it can have access or not have access. It's keyed the same. So our m our grandm key opens uh those classrooms, but the classrooms do have separate keys. So I mean teachers in this building won't be able to get into classrooms in that building, but their key fob can get them in. they need to get in there. Uh we are working on uh fencing in the front area and we've got a little 30 by 30 section. We're going to turf so kids have a playground even if it's a little rainy out there because uh the equipment in in the elementary playground is
012rated for children older than preschool age. So we'll have some stage two playground equipment out there that what's that? >> Step two, sorry. Step two. step two equipment that they employ in the early childhood center. >> I saw that we moved the gate, but it looks like that the key truck will still >> Yeah, it will. It It was designed wide enough so the gas truck can still get through there and service that well when it needs to be serviced. >> Very important. Of course. Um any other old business? >> Yep. We also have Um, a quick update on the workforce development campus over at Preston. So, we have several buildings over there. You're looking at a a picture of building B. That's what's being renovated right now. Inside there's a classroom and that so
013that uh floor is where that's the carpet and some um some vinyl that's at the entry that was donated by. Um, and then this is the side of the garage. They I just went over it today and they were they were working inside getting that renovated. Um there's seven bays. Two of those will be for bus and van transportation and the rest of them will be for our different uh workforce programming. So either vocational or um before we before we get the new building over there started, diesel classes will be in there. our welding and snap-on certification equipment will also be housed in there. Uh there is a body shop that uh Preston has done a lot of renovation and it's it's live right now and they're painting cars and doing things in there. So
014we give our kids some experience and collection repair if they're in those programs. Uh you can see in this picture over by the white truck is where the building is starting to go up kind between the body shop and the salt dome which hopefully will pretty soon. And this is the the shell of the new building that Preston Preston is building the shell for us and what we just declared an emergency for the interiors for that. So we're we're responsible for the interiors building the shell. It'll have two classrooms that both lead into uh two twocar garages that that kids will be able to use as a lab. And then in the backside there's an office, a conference room, and a restroom. So, we'll call it the Preston Educational Garage once it's up and finished.
015And then um the other building, the the larger um garage that you can see from the front, our transportation department is in part of that. You the part where they got that little bit lower roof. That's where our transportation department is. And there's a break room in there where our drivers will share with some of the mechanics. And the other side of that you can see uh is a fully functioning auto shop that Crescent is doing a lot of their um a lot of larger truck type work and and that's where our kids will be assigned to text when they're doing lab work. So they'll be able to actually see live repairs. Uh the interesting thing is the instructor will be we have we're going to have two instructors for the for the program. They're
016both Preston mechanics. So that while they're mechanics at Preston, they're going to be given time to come teach our kids and then our kids will be assigned to Preston has 50 texts there. So we could have up to 50 kids each with an individual tag as the program grows. Right now we have 26 of our own kids and two kids in the program and we'll just continue to grow as uh as more kids sign up. Any questions about that? That project? >> Awesome. That's what I say. Awesome. Because the timing to get that up and running so that we could have it there is just terrific. And I am going to name a person that can get rid of that salt here shortly. So that should be done before hopefully when The other incredible thing
017is the partnership too. So, and all of us that have been involved in getting this to work, >> people want to be here for sure. Um, any other old business, John? >> That's all I have. Uh, any new business? Okay. Our next board meeting is August 11. We are going to um ask it is appointment of the public. We do not be long. Uh we will go into the offices and we'll be back. There will be no follow >> Mr. >> Yes. >> Mr. Mrs. Stone. >> Yes. Mr. >> Yes.
