Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Does anybody have any questions of Warren? >> I'm so happy you're here. Thank you. >> Yeah. Thank you very much. >> So Warren, you've noticed a increase in concentration and

006a decrease in distractions because of the new um electronic device man. Yes, there have been less people talking during the classes and we've had more people actually worried about their school work through the being the beginning of the year. >> Okay, excellent. Thank you. >> Any questions you guys want to know about in the future? >> No, but what grade are you in? >> 10th grade. >> His father served on the board with some of us a while back. Hi, James. >> I have a question. So when you're when you're doing some some some some research for your findings, are you just chatting with other students or >> how do you how do you how do you figure it out? >> If it involves uh sports, I go to people within the stat. If it

007involves general sports, I go to Mr. Record for information and along with activities. If it involves student reports or changes, I go to Mr. Ashton. Then I go to the students and teachers. >> Great. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> That's very good because you're really trying to get good feedback for us. We appreciate that. >> Okay. It doesn't look like Cody is here today, so we'll move on to CDEA business. And Mr. Cro Yes. And you don't have to stay if you don't want to, but you're welcome to stay as long as you play. How's the >> I'm not very good at these. So, I was told I should bring a piece of paper. >> Okay. Uh, good evening members of the board and superintendent. Um, my name is Glenn Crook and I have

008the privilege of serving as the president of Cous Bay Education Association. I appreciate the opportunity to be here tonight introduce myself and our representative team. Uh as an association, our purpose is to support educators uphold the contract we agreed upon and ensure that the voices of staff are heard. Ultimately, our work is centered around the goal of creating the best possible learning environment for students. This year, I'm fortunate to be working alongside the strong leadership team. We have Tracy Kates as vice president for medicine, Diane Handy, treasurer for Madison, and secretary from Marshfield, sorry, Jen Winston as secretary from Marshfield Junior High. Um, in addition to our officers, we have building representatives in every school who serve as the first point of contact for our members. These reps are the bridge between the classroom and

009leadership. They listen, share concerns, and provide support so the staff feel both representative and respected. I want to take a moment to recognize and thank them for their commitment. And so, fortunately, we have this slideshow here. And so, we have the building reps. We have our contract team or contract action team. Uh, and then our officers there. I won't read them all for you. Sorry. Let me see. Um, in addition to our officers, uh, nope, I already read that part. Yep, there we go. Looking ahead, one of our leadership goals this year is to strengthen communication and training for our members. Uh, by giving our building reps more tools and ensuring information flows clearly, we believe that we could address challenges early and constructively. Strong communication within our membership leads to stronger collaboration with the

010district and ultimately a better climate for students. We're also grateful for the support of OEA's representative Chico Robinson who helps connect us to the resources and advocacy of the state level. Um I want to close by saying that while the board and associate may sometimes approach issues from different perspectives, we share the same goal, schools where staff and students can succeed. I look forward to working forward to the year of collaboration and continued progress together. Thank you for your time. for your ongoing support. >> Thanks. Any questions? >> Does anybody have any questions for Glenn right now? >> I thought you did a great job. I don't know why this school year to just be up here talking. Not even >> We shall see. >> I heard this wasn't your favorite part of it. >>

011Yes, I am uh I am definitely behind the scenes type of person. >> But you did great and that part was really helpful. Thank you. Pleasure. >> Perfect. Okay. Thank you, Glenn. >> Okay. OA business, Miss Brie Land. >> Uh maybe I need to have Glenn write my uh summary because mine is not a whole speech, but I like jot down short bullet notes and then hope for the best when I get up here. Um so, uh welcome back to the new school year. I know that we have some new board members and I wouldn't mind if you guys tell me your guys' names so that way I know I'm saying them correctly too. >> Uh Derek Roelston. >> Nice to meet you. And I'm Mie Rosen. >> I'm Arian. I got >> I forget

012your name. I >> just got reelected. I'm not new. >> No, I do I do know Diane. So, welcome to the PSA school district. I'm really glad that you guys are taking, you know, your time to serve on the school board. And so, I thank you for that dedication because I do know it involves a lot of behind thescenes work and probably some late evenings. And so, I know we made this announcement at the end of last school year, but with having some new people, I thought it'd be nice to reintroduce uh my board. So, my name is Bri Landram and I work um in our native programs uh through the TAP grant which stands for tribal attendance promising practices and so you may see me in all of the schools and then Amarell is

013our secretary in um the maintenance department and then she is our vice president on our board and then Allison is our new secretary um and she is an educational assistant at Madison School And then Brenda Gber is our treasurer and she well I don't know what her official job title is and she can yell at me um about that later but she helps run our online program and some of the uh online component and uh yeah I know there's a certain job title and I can't remember what it is. >> Huh? >> Yeah online coordinator and it's really embarrassing for those that don't know that's my mom so I should know. And then Shelley Fuller is our is our synergy guru and you would find her here at the Blossom Gulch building. Um and then

014Brenda's uh now located at Milner Crest Education Center. Um our our union uh has I've I've been in this I think for two or three years now and we are looking at rebuilding with some newer building reps and kind of focusing on organizing. So I do not have those names to you guys. So hopefully I can share those in October with you. Uh we've had a lot of really strong members that have retired or close to retirement. So kind of in that rebuilding phase and making sure that we are training our building reps and we focused much of our summer on negotiations. So thank you for uh that passing this evening. Um so we can go ahead and move forward from that. I think everybody here got kind of tired of seeing you this summer.

015Uh, so special thanks, you know, to Marina and Michelle and our board members Arie and Addie for taking the time and meeting with us this summer and my team to to come up with our new contract for the next three years. And then um I thought for some reason that we would end up talking before that went through and I was going to open it up for questions, but sounds like that is now a done deal. Do you guys have any questions for me this evening or >> Q? Yeah. What is Shel's title here? Hospitality. >> Oh, hospitality. So, she's the one who It's almost like a sunshine sunshine committee. And so, um, like if somebody experiences something in their personal life, maybe sending flowers or a card, recognizing our retirees, that kind of >>

016like that. Does Glid have a hospitality sunshine? >> No sunshine over here. Any other questions? Bri, I have a really offthe-wall question. We had a work session on Saturday and one of the things we talked about was what the um the uh attendance coordinator does. And you served in that role, didn't you? For >> attendance. >> Oh, an attendance advocate. an attendance advocate. Could you just tell our new board members what an attendance advocate does? >> We no longer have those. >> Oh, >> that was a those were positions that were rifted and so the four attendance advocates were rifted last year and that's not a position that >> they're not doing anything then. >> No, they're somewhere else. Why is doing it now? So, a lot of it with looking at systems and structures

017for last year and the attendance advocates are like a singular person and it is really nice to have that singular person that has the time during the day to do some of the outreach that we would do, right? Like home visits, personalized plans, um coordinating with families, helping reduce barriers and things. Um, but with looking at the new systems, kind of taking that ownership instead of it falling on one person and actually creating systems underneath so that way, you know, we don't have kids that fall through the cracks when everybody takes ownership and attendance is my understanding of uh why kind of those positions were ripped. And so there's already been a lot of communication that I haven't been a part of necessarily um at this point in the school year, but that are happening

018in the buildings and emails are going out and then um asking teachers to make those kids. >> Yeah. Because a lot of the research around attendance does show that it's most effective if the teacher is making the first contact and developing those relationships with families versus maybe an attendance advocate, especially if you're in multiple schools. you know, then they kind of um develop that relationship with you instead of the school. And so by doing this, it's really going to create, I think, more systemic approaches that will be more successful um in that. And I know that some of the finer things that we did are still being kind of figured out on how it's divvied up, but that was the like goal. Um my my grant still exists which is attendance is in the main

019right I working with native students. >> Thank you. >> Oh gosh that shaped a large chunk of our conversation our work session and and and I apologize that we did not have that information because we were explaining to our new board members how >> how good you were. But my question is is about >> transportation is a kicked off they wake up late miss the bus mom and dad are working or it's just a child at home and you would go pick them up or someone would go get them. How is that being handled now? And we're like in week two so I'm sure it's still being worked out or do you have a plan? >> Okay. Well, wait a minute. This is a conversation issue, I think, and it's unfair to put Bri on

020this. >> I can see I don't at all. Um, that is a great thing that we still need to figure out. Um, like I I've told people um in in my grant purposes, that is still very much a part of my job with the population of students that I work with, which is our American Indian, Alaskan Native students and their families. Um, and so that is something that I brought up with admin and they have been problem solving and addressing that. I'm not involved in it as the level as I was previously. Um, but I mean we have both said if somebody needs a ride like we're gonna we can help out with them. Yeah. >> Thank you. >> Okay. Thank you. >> Yeah. >> Maybe >> thank you so much for sharing all that

021information. That was really great and I I commend you on the understanding about how um how how supporting the system and having everybody be a part of it. I think that is um really smart thinking. And I'm curious um Mr. Roberts if we could find out a little bit more about how that's I mean I know it is week two but yeah how is it going? I think that she's spot on that teachers are close to families and and build those relationships. And I'm wondering um how are teachers being supported in making those kinds of outreaches when they're teaching? And um and I I hate to ask if we're tracking it because that's just more work, but I'd be curious to know how >> I can Yeah, we can support that. Well, I I don't

022want to put you on the spot. And are these positions are re >> allocated >> reallocated Brienne and uh those um responsibilities much of them are going to shift into the buildings um each in our buildings a lot of them have folks that they are assigned to become pseudo attendance advocates um >> to continue that communication. What's that? >> I said other duties as assigned. >> Yeah. and and working with students and families, especially those regular attenders. As you're going to hear later, we've set sprint goal uh sprint goal goals in every building around attendance, regular attenders, and working with those students that are that are slipping through the cracks as we hold the right. >> Yeah. And I think too, you know, I said teachers in the classroom, but we also have to remember

023like I wouldn't be here tonight if it wasn't for my role within a classified staff that sometimes students do have better connections with a classified staff member. And so that's a another another great segment for our students in school. And I think um you know whether it's a classified or certified or an administrator, the students that are in the buildings with the staff that are in that one building all day have the ability to make way better relationships than than somebody that is going, you know, to to multiple schools. Um it just allowed us to kind of kind of connect with families more than necessarily the students. And so I think um in this day and age a lot of um that sense of belonging and engagement is so important in wanting to come to

024school and I think it's we're going to see some really great things uh having that you know sense of you know having staff retake that control and I can't remember Cara uses a really great word for that ownership. There we go is a really great word that I can't think of. So >> I appreciate it. Thank you. Thank you. >> Have a good night. >> Bri, one more. >> So, um, with your grant app, is that are are the students who are in the program selfidentified or do they have to be part of >> all native students? All native students. So, if you identify as being the American, >> you identify. So, it isn't. Yeah. >> And it says it's a it's a state grant. And I weren't you I think you were a part

025of it. I would, but I just want to make sure that people know it's not you don't have to be part of the nine Oregon tribes. >> That's true. >> Any tribal >> and Alaskan native. So, >> yeah. And in in our district, when you guys are looking at data that's generated by Synergy, it shows that we have a 4% uh student population. And one of the big things about TAP is that we actually have much more than that. But um because of how data is collected and race and ethnicity and how that's broken down, we have a lot of kids covered. We actually are closer to 10% in our district of American being lost to native students. And I don't know um if other people know this or not, but there's nine federally recognized

026tribes in Oregon. And we actually have two of them here in our local area. We have the Kopqual Indian tribe and we also have the confederated tribes of Cous Lauramad Susa Indians. So if you if you don't know a little bit about that, there you go. >> Perfect. Thank you. >> Okay. >> Uh public input. Do we have people signed up today? >> We have Terry Jones. >> Harvey. Terry Jones, >> we have one person. Okay, I'm going to bring up my little spiel. Speakers may offer objective criticism of school operations and programs, but the board will not hear personal complaints concerning school personnel, nor against any person connected with the school system. The time limit is 3 minutes. The board chair will direct the visitor to the appropriate means for board consideration and disposition

027of legitimate complaints involving individuals. And that's board policy BBDH. >> Thank you, Maddie. So, I guess I don't get to tell Disney World stories about you and all right. >> Um, I'm Terry Jones and I run the library at Mass Elementary School. It's been a tradition since I started to come before band book week. Um often to tell you how the summer program went. We gave out about between 40 and 50 books every Wednesday um during the summer. Um when I first started speaking about band book week, it was something that maybe I mean to me it was like a party day and this is my favorite week ever. But in the last, you know, few years or so, it's kind of a scary thing now. Um, I first got involved, some of you know,

028I'm the former vice president of this this OCA at the state level and a former president locally a long time ago. Um, and I first got involved with the union because I wanted better advocacy for libraries and I thought that was the pathway that I could do it. But of course when they suck you in there are other things that are even more important than your concern and we did path work shouldn't hurt unemployment insurance and other things and those were important but this year I got to speak under Senate Bill 1098 which was a bill that was to make it so that in the state of Oregon you could not remove it was an anti-book banning bill that you couldn't ban and books based on certain protect pro protected categories and um and I

029got to go speak on that and so it was kind of a full circle moment for me. It did pass and it was signed by the governor. It had an emergency clause so it would start immediately and it was signed in June. So I did finally get something for libraries. Um, I mean hopefully I did other things as well. So, I do have some bookmarks for you. Um, band book week will be October 5th through the 11th, but that was before the next school board meeting. So, get you a bookmark out. And, uh, does anybody have any questions? >> I just want to say thank you for your advocacy. You've been here tirelessly and I just love this week. I always go to the library and get band books right after this. >> And really,

030just read any book. Just read books. more that you read. Um, and it that has changed. I I had to at a conference I had to speak on libraries and and book challenges and stuff and at this point I'm just like just everybody pick up a book and read. Don't be afraid of them. Read what you like. Um, they are to be honest a lot of the books that are currently on the band book list. Um, Oregon had its most challenges ever at 151. Um, nationally that's over 2,000. Um, most of them are not new books. I mean, Looking for Alaska. >> I mean, I'm huge John Green fan, but that came out, I think, when my daughter was in middle school. She's over 30. So, um, I think people are just picking books that

031they've heard. you know, most of them are going to be on the LGBTQ or have a racial element or things like that. Um, but hopefully in Oregon we are protecting ourselves. It doesn't mean we put books in front of kids where they are not at recommended age level. We do look at reviews um, professional scholarship reviews to know where to place books. So, I'm just throwing out that. But do you have a favorite? >> No, not especially. Not especially like them all or most of them. >> Yeah, I I like it too. I always have a hard time assuming this is what's your favorite book because I can change by the minute. So, anyway, I will pass these. >> Thank you very much. Does anybody have any questions? Yeah, I got it open just in

032case because it's been a busy day kindergarten. >> Anyway, this will be my last time to come up before you on band book week. >> Wait, what? >> And so, >> are you retired? >> I am retiring. >> The end of this school year. >> No, no, >> before that. See you later. >> Thank you so much. Okay, thank you very much. Okay. Uh, business office. >> Did I go too far? Nope. >> Nope. That's me. >> Yep. Thank you. >> Yeah. So, I've presented for your review um the September 2nd enrollment for last week. You should have a link to that all on your agenda rather than me uh reading it all out loud like I've done it in the past. So, it's a pretty standard start of the school year. Uh, we are

033approximately 66 down from where we started last school year, which is pretty anticipated. Those are not all um our our students. So, our our student ADM number does include uh alternative youth activities as well as resource link and lighthouse. And so, this is a culmination of all of those things. We are down. We are expecting that for about the next six years. Um unless a port project happens and brings a lot of kids. Otherwise, it it will it's supposed to um flatten out a little bit in the next six years. When I'm looking at this September 2nd enrollment data, this is great and good, but usually the first week of school, we have some people enrolling. We also have our kindergarteners who started today. And so I I pulled the numbers again when I got

034in this meeting or when I got in here earlier. Instead of being chilly, I was pulling enrollment numbers. Um and we are up 87 from last week. And so a significant number of those are actually at our online program, which is expected. Um and then we have about 16 more enrolled over at the high school give and take. um a handful here or there added. Um but overall we we are now ahead of where we were last September by about 10. So I anticipate we will drop probably about another 50 this school year, but I'll continue to present this um I'll continue to present the variances monthtomonth as well as where we were last year. But um when doing a data analysis of birth rates and cohort um we are projected to decrease 10% over

035the next five to eight years based on some national data which will directly impact our school ADM. However, as I said lots and lots last year, Oregon is down as a whole. So during COVID, Oregon as a whole lost about 30,000 students in our school systems that we could not track. So, we could track the ones that were homeschooled and registered with their local ESD. We could track people who were doing a virtual charter, but about 30,000 kids less um are included with our state school fund. And so, you can play devil's advocate, which is great. Then the pieces of the pie are bigger per ADM and they have proven to be. However, also at some point, it's really hard to justify an 11.3 billion budget with 30,000 less kids. And so I I don't

036know that we'll continue to see the huge increases in our state school fund budget like we have in this bianium. That is our current governor's um focus is education and literacy. And I think that's part of the reason that we saw that huge increase without all of the students. But at some point I do imagine that will that will balance out. We will not continue to see the same increases in state school funds without increasing ADM statewide or even district. >> Yes, sorry. Average daily membership. So we have lots of different ADMs, but that that's theoretically a body in a seat, but each body in a seat is weighted differently. And so if I ever say ADMW, that's a average daily membership weighted. And so there are there are different weights for Oregon. So students

037in poverty, students experiencing yellow, um students experiencing homelessness, uh teen parents, all those have different weights and >> um meaning a different funding level based on >> an additional the choose. >> Yeah. So they all have different weights of that one ADM and so they can get additional. As a district we we've been seeing about a decrease of 50 ADM W and so it's not 50 necessarily seats in in schools but um I think we'll continue to see a decrease. Yeah. Does anyone have any questions on the September 2nd enrollment? I would like to point out that if you look at our kinder through fourth grade, not knowing today's numbers, yeah, >> it's as close as the those grade levels have been historically since I've been here for seven years. We usually see a much

038bigger gap between east side, west side numbers. Um, and again, kindergarten through fourth grade, they're they're those enrollments across town are lining up, which means the boundary changes that happened when we reshuffled schools and and um are paying off. >> They are. And and you'll see there's a huge fluctuation between the Oklahoma and Sunset. But what I want to advocate for is that um Sunset is up almost 40 from where they ended last school year. So while kids might have there might have always been a disparity in the numbers at each school, kids are angry at sunset and they are they're gaining those numbers where they ended last year at 300 342 and they were up over 80 at the beginning of school this year. >> And that sixth grade that sixth grade group is

039a big bubble 253 between the two buildings. That's a that's a big class. >> Yeah. So you'll see um in the average size the red boxes next to each grade at each school that is the um number of students divided by the number of teachers to give an average class size. They're not all averely distributed, but you'll see we're well within the recommended class size that we have in the CPA contract um except for the sixth grade, which is significantly over that 26 recommended class size for sixth grade, but we do have an additional EA to support those sixth grade at each school. So, at MLM, there's an additional um sixth grade EA. They were a fifth grade EA last year, and we follow that cohort. um while while they're at that intermediate school. And

040then um if you don't have any more questions on enrollments, we will go to our next new item. I have presented a new item to you before, but um as you guys might be very aware, we've had significant changes in our superintendent leadership while I've been here. And with each time we have changed over our bank signers >> and what that does is significantly increase our fraud risk because there are significantly more signatures that are on checks. And so speaking with Addie, speaking with um some other local business managers, we decided that it would be best for me to continue to be the sole signer of checks because I have been here since 2023 and there's been some consistency in that um until we have a permanent superintendent Roberts. Um I didn't want to add

041another bank signer and increase our fraud risk even more. So with that said, I am now signing checks, but they are also coming through my department. And so in order to increase transparency, I will now be providing for you a list of all of the um accounts payable checks that were issued from my office the month prior. So this is two months because we didn't have an August meeting. So these are all of the checks that we wrote in July and August that came through the business department. Um, so utilities, travel reimbursement checks, all of the all of the such. You'll see these reports monthly. If you have any questions, please reach out to me. Um, shoot me an email, get me a check number. I can get you whatever backup detail you'd like. Um,

042but it will increase transparency for me if you guys are reviewing them and also if the public has access to all of the checks that are. So, um, if you don't have any questions on the nine pages of checks I gave you, I'll pass it over to Mr. Robert. >> Will you need us to approve them or anything? Just see them. >> Just see them >> and then ask questions individually if we've got them. >> Yes. Um, individually because I don't have all the backup documentation. My my expectation with time being a factor is that if you send me an email, hey, I have a question on this check, I'm going to send all the back up to all of you group in case anyone else has any questions on that same check, but that

043way I'm not having to go pull it. >> Yeah, that'd be great. Thank you, Addie. >> Are there any other questions for Marina? >> And you can always email me. I am always available. Call or email me >> and just understand this correctly. So now all basically outgoing payments from the district will be funneled to your office and there be >> yes they are they have always been funneled through my office. That's our internal control is that they all get processed through our accounts payable person. They go through a requisition process with each admin. But um once they are printed they'll be signed by signature and then they'll be directly filmed here. The only checks that will not are payable purely because we write let's say 100 paper checks a month. >> Yeah. Thank you.

044>> So checks on this list that are to employees would be some kind of reimbursement. >> Correct. Yeah. During the summer months we do a lot of travel. So a lot of um travel reimbursement for conferences, workshops, those sorts of things. Gotcha. >> Thank you. Any other questions? Okay, let's move on. Gary, you're up. >> All right. superintendent report. It will be much shorter than the superintendent report from Saturday. Um, want to start off work already, David? We just tested and now it's not working. >> Oh, hold on. So, >> you might stop it. All right. Want to start off tonight with a reminder of our our district motto. One compass, one crew, one mission. And our school uh uh and our school district mission of each student is known by name, strength, need and

045all students graduate with a plan to be enrolled and listed or employed. Next, please. Thank you. I want to start with a welcome back of our um staff and students. So, being that we're in the first week, I wanted to get some pictures to show our board. Uh lots of classroom activities going on in buildings. These are from uh East Side Madison in Sunset. Um, I know if Amelia's watching at home, I know she likes that scar bro ring rope in that bottom right corner that was made over at Sunset in the classroom. Looks great. And then the high school uh Mr. Asha noticed that uh um the pep assembly was the best attended pep assembly that they have had. Their pep assemblies used to back up to advisory and sometimes students would uh wander

046uh and so um he was excited about that. And then I have our staff welcome back picture up in the middle. Thank you. A couple more pictures. We've got Milacoma. There are some uh lunchtime activities in Miloma in the middle. Uh junior high lunch. Uh junior high was really worried about the lunch lines given that they now have one lunchtime seventh and eighth graders at the same time. I went over uh late last week and it's about nine minutes to get through the lunch line to get all the kids through which is pretty good. Got 40 minutes. Uh so nine of it to get through. Um little nervous about rainy day. I was going to go over today but it did rain. I might go tomorrow if it's raining to see because the field activities

047that they have during lunch for the for the junior high kids, you know, is that going to translate into the gym and be too much? So, going to go ahead that way. Got football game uh last Friday night, a great win for our Pirates. And on the bottom left, we had the uh Southside dedication uh of the field and that Southside project is is going well. Um put some finishing touches on it, but really a great uh a great deal that's going on over there. And it's a fun view to watch a football game. It's a great view over there. Uh, some summer facility update updates. I hope I'm not stealing your thunder, Kevin, when we get to your section, but um >> I didn't bring the visual a >> perfect. All right, >> so

048um really the highlights, a lot of highlights over at Sunset. Fresh coat of paint there on the left. Did the um painting of the countertops. It's meant to look like it's like a um solid surface countertop, like a granite. And they did it at Miloma last year. Trey over at Beayshore Paints, fantastic job. I mean, you really have to look deep to make sure that it's it's just the the the laminate countertop that they just redid and it looks awesome. And new lights and that's a real highlight as we're going to go to the next slide. Um well, flooring in the library was also put in along with some LED lights and and then the next thing and then those new lights you can see there in the middle that was a shot of down

049the hallway. Uh dark um lighting just not great. And then you can see on the right and the left, those new LED lights in the hallway really brightened up um brightened up the building and done a great job. Uh lights in the gym before and then after. It looks like if you go back real quick, David, look at the difference in the gym floor. >> Gym floor looks kind of dark and and older even though it's not too much of an old floor. Uh but then you go to those new lights and it really brightens it up. It's really awesome. Uh got some new cafeteria tables along with lighting downstairs at sunset. and uh Milner uh Mililder Crest Education Center got some new carpet. You can see on the left there was some very um

050artistic tiles that were underneath some of the the carpets in the rooms and this is really a credit to LMA and his crew and awesome work they did all summer. Um just fantastic. You can see there on the right um that used to be uh Chad Putnham's office and uh uh looks great. Again, new flooring, new paint, new year, little east, the little compass there in the in the top right corner underneath one of the floors. Uh, but they really did a fantastic job there at uh at Milner. We're just getting the final touches on here in the last few days. Bathroom projects are are complete up there and stalls are looking great. Uh, Autton Field getting a new scoreboard. Um, and that uh is going up and looking fantastic. You saw the baseball scoreboard,

051I'm sure, last year as it went up and and those are really great for our baseball and softball kids. Working on the sprinkler system over at the baseball field to try to get that going and keep that infield nice and water. New goalpost at Marshfield. And as a former football coach, I will tell you Marshfield was one of the worst places to come and play for kicking because they were very short goal post and you had a hard time figuring out whether field goals and extra points were good or not. So, it's nice that they've put in these newer, taller goal posts. They're also lighter. So, the maintenance crew, they take them down for track season. They're much easier to transport. And then the grease interceptors at the high school. These went into most of

052our buildings um last year or the last previous summer. And then into the high school. Um city's going to come over when we do the first draining of them here. I believe in December. Wasn't that discussed, Kevin? December. Yeah. Um they're going to come over, but we have our grease interceptors now at the high school. And then finally, we got some new windows here at Blossom Gulch along with our flooring and our paint. And again, LMA and his crew did a fantastic job. Uh, lots of compliments from people that have come in the building, both former teachers, former students that went to school here. Lots of positives. Superintendent goals. We talked on Saturday. I revised uh the goals uh following the feedback that I received from from our board. Um, so raising the academic expectation

053and outcomes of the district with alignment to the state accountability metrics, third grade reading, eighth grade math, the ninth grade on track, uh, four and fiveyear grad rates, uh, K2 attendance, and then that's still to be determined local metric that OD hasn't hasn't identified yet or given us the options of identification yet. Uh goal two, developing a longterm plan for the future of alternative education in the Kousbay school district and prioritize destinations academy pre kindergarten our teen parent program resource link charter school uh CBD online school and potential child care program uh goal three uh same as last year verbatim report progress on goals monthly uh goal four investigate and establish the need for additional programs in the district including CTE co-curriculars and afterchool opportunities ities. And then the last one, administer at least two

054community and student surveys focusing on climate, student voice. Results will be analyzed and shared with constituents and findings will be used to inform district decision-making and guide improvements. >> And that's school climate, not >> climate. >> No, school climate. No. Yeah, we know the weather. Um, so, uh, sprint goals. So, each of our buildings, uh, we've established sprint goals. We started this last year. Um, these are goals. short duration, month, two months, uh with the idea of having a focus in in a couple of areas and really trying to p prioritize it with staff and students. Um we are going to start the year in September, October with three sprint goals. Districtwide will be our regular attenders. Uh then we gave the option for grade level bands to have their goals. So K6 is going

055to focus on success maker and getting their 60 minutes a week and the 100 minutes uh excuse me uh the seven hours that it takes to establish um their interventions within success maker gets them into the system puts them at their grade level and then it starts working them through the system. So that's the K2 focus. Uh the 7th through 12th grade is going to focus on their their 10% F rate having an F rate of less than 10%. And then the the third goal is a sightbased goal. So we let each building pick their their sprint goal that that they feel is most important to their building to get them get them going and square. Uh Madison has chosen character strong four at the door which is a welcoming greeting of students. Um and

056uh east side is going to focus on positive office referrals. Um Sunset is focusing on their character strong and the 45 minutes per week that the students get and the character strong is our is our social emotional learning curriculum. Um, Miloma is going to focus on boost minutes. Boost is a is a differentiated reading program for students uh that comes within our amplify. Uh, and there's 60 minutes a week is their focus. Marshall Junior High is focusing on the success maker minutes that I discussed above because uh, success maker goes through 8th grade. And then Marshfield destinations are focused on completing their student success plans to get the year start. So those are the sprint goals for each building as we start the school year for September, October. Those are tracked in a Google form.

057Uh they're tracked on Wednesdays and Fridays and then a cumulative for the month. I want to share with you our data cycle as we start the school year. Um in September, October, our teams are working on their smart goals, our coherence reports, and our pacing guides at the building level. Those are all due uh early October. Um every three weeks uh the admin are going to produce data reports. The K sixes will work on their progress monitor reports and the 712s will be providing to me the district cabinet uh the DF reports for where students are at individually. Uh monthly I will be meeting with the superintendents and going over uh their data and then quarterly we're going to be having admin data dialogues as a K K1 admin team professional development for administrators. I

058talked about this on Saturday. Just want to update met with our admin team today and and went back over this plan. Um and you go to the next slide, David. Uh and really wanted to break down these will be those focus areas for those three um those three areas of focus. These are going to be the months that we focus on those. So uh teaching and learning is going to be a priority for September, January, and April. Uh professional learning communities, our PLC practices will be October, February, and May. And then the evaluation with a with a focus on feedback and reflection is going to be November, December. The reason for those two months together, you know, November has a lot of of non-school days as those December, we put those together. So, November, December

059will be evaluation and then March. >> Um, and then finally, some upcoming important dates and events. Uh, we've got our u beginning of the year assessments going on at the K6 and K8 level that are being done right now. I just want to point out September 16th is National IT Professional Day. So, want to, you know, Kevin Wilhigh and his team down the hall, they do a fantastic job. Um, it's on the 16th, we will celebrate that more than we do on the day. Um, October 2nd is school custodian appreciation day. Uh, October 15th uh is our what we're calling our day of testing in the district at the at the upper the secondary level. So, our eighth through 10th graders are going to take the pre-ACCT uh and ACT if they so choose. And

060then our 11th and 12th graders will take either the ACT or the ASVAB. The ASVAB is a test. It's a career technical exam. Uh really uh um heavily important for students that are planning on going into uh military post high school. Um October 27th is our first board data meeting. So hopefully that's on everybody's radar. Uh and then uh just some no school uh we have no school grading day on November 7th, uh Veterans Day observance on November 11th, and then our fall break on November 26 to the 20th. Those are some timelines. Couple of events that are coming up on September 25th, we have our Nancy Gert Legacy Foundation event that's going to be at the Cous History Museum. Uh Nancy is a former teacher counselor. Um and she's a fantastic she was a

061elementary teacher when I went to Boston many many years ago. Uh and um the uh GE Legacy Foundation, we're working on to to the endowment of that found of that piece which is $25,000. We're a little over halfway there uh amongst the the schools community schools foundation and we're hoping this event will help us kind of get over that get over that cliff and get us to uh get us to the point where we're in doubt. Also that same night, uh, our culinary arts team from Marshfield will be competing competing against North Ben's culinary arts team at the Oregon Coast Economic Summit, which is at Blue Ridge Strategies, which is on Front Street. So, from 6:00 to 9:00, um, there's the opportunity if you want to go back and forth. I will be that night

062going back and forth between the two events. Uh, but they're going to be doing um some tapas using local seafood. So, and and having kind of a informal formal competition with the North End Culinary Arts program. So, since it's right across the street, be a good time to maybe wander back and forth. And that event is free, but you do need to sign up at the Oregon Coast Economic Summit site. And if if you need be, I can get you the link to that. And then finally, just want to put this on the radar that Saturday, October 18th, is the uh Marshfield Hall of Fame uh banquet uh at the Mill Casino in the Salmon Room. Uh, great. Uh, class. I guess that's when you know you're getting older is when you start seeing classmates

063in the Hall of Fame. Arie, I don't know what that says for you. You were the principal for all of these folks. So, they were my classmates. >> Um, but uh um but a great group that's going in. Uh I guarantee you there'll be some entertaining speeches from from the folks that are that are listed up there on the board. I would also say that Nav Ziger's daughter, one of our teachers at the high school, >> yes, >> teaches our AP courses in in science, biology, and so on. She's environmental science. >> And her grandchildren, two of her grandchildren are in our schools, one of the junior high and one. And um the last I just wanted to bring this up as kind of a closing because we we talked about this last year and

064it deserves to be to brought up again this year and often that all students deserve great teachers and schools by design and not choice. And that's what we're striving for is to design our schools uh to maximize uh adult outcomes and student outcomes. So that is my report. Any questions? I said it would be quicker than Saturdays. >> We appreciate it. questions. Do you have any questions, Warren? I haven't asked you. >> So, you said there was a conference travel reimbursement. Uh, is that all a credit to the end? And if so, have you all filed that? >> I'm sorry. Are you referring to a check that we wrote for conference travels? >> Yes. Okay. So when those get completed, they come to my office and then we do a purchase requisition and then they

065go through the purchasing process until a checks written. >> So were you asking if it was paid beforehand before the conference or at the end? >> No, I was asking whether what system they use in order to cash it. For example, do people write it down? Do they log it? uh they bring in >> yeah they generally have to show receipts in order to get reimbured. >> We have a travel form and then require very specific documentation and then approval with uh your administrator. >> Okay. And then my second is what does your uh what does the administrator do with requisition processing? they have to go in and approve the coding and then once approved coding whether that be a grant or general fund student body once it's approved it comes through our system to

066account payable and then it's processed through me so there's essentially four steps of administrator for approval okay >> so how do you calculate EDM do you do it with the student view or >> oh I do not that the eight and I wouldn't touch EDM with an input pole. >> We they tell us Warren, we have we use um we use a program called Synergy. So when you go to class and teacher takes attendance >> that that all these reports and synergy go to OD they calculate it in their OD ways. Oregon Department of Education. >> Department of Education. >> Yeah. Oregon Department of Education. And then >> we have projections, but they give us our official ADM of what we have our our student uh membership. >> Yeah. And if you're interested, Lauren, you're

067welcome to meet with me after and we can sign an appointment and I'd be happy to walk you through our budget and how we do some of those um back end of the background. I think that would be helpful. >> Yep. >> Good questions. >> Yes. >> Any other questions? He's looking to make sure he doesn't have any numbers. >> Okay. Thank you, Gary. I think we're on to Kevin >> to give us a facilities committee update. >> He was still looking to see. >> Oh, I'm sorry. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Uh, so basically what Gary says with some pictures, it was it's uh it's true. Blossom got paint. the carpet's coming down going in and at sunset they've got a lot more lighting and when I went to school there in sixth grade it

068was dark so it's been dark for quite a while and uh so the lighting is way off but then it also highlights a couple things that we're going to work on in the future so it's not completely done yet obviously or we haven't brought about the roof and and other big projects and then also we have a baseball sprinklers we've been digging at it looking at it finding out where the problems are ordering stuff so Baseball, they should be happy by next season. Softball, they're going to look good. They had a decent scoreboard. Now they have an awesome new scoreboard. So, that'll work out good for them. Uh Joe Slack gave a presentation on security festivals with like three different options. So, it's still on the on the books kind of just an option type

069thing, but the main thing basically it's coming to down is that the Marshfield uh main entrance will have one and I don't know which one they're going to go off of yet, but it' be great. So, they'll change the the principal's office and some of the layout of that. And then we heard from Shelley over at Lighthouse School. Um, every other month we like to do a walk around through different facilities and different schools and properties and and we haven't been to Lighthouse for a while. So, it's great she came in. She kind of told us a few things and then uh me and L are going to go there this week kind of get a layout of uh what she's kind of talking about and then we're going to schedule a meeting for the

070following month for our walkound. So, we'll post it for everybody in the community, members, everyone, and uh we'll just kind of go in formal and check it out, see what they got going on, and and then report back to you guys. And uh yeah, that plus what Gary said. That was it. And some pictures. You guys have any questions? >> Any questions? >> What is >> Yeah. What is a walkound for? >> Yeah. So, uh, a walk around instead of having meetings once a month and crunching numbers and looking at stuff, we felt like it would be really beneficial for the community and other people to physically go out and look at these places. >> So, it's really you'll we every other month you'll go to a different school and walk around and see all

071the problems that they're having or the new things that they've done. The last last one that we had last year, we went to the color and so we were able to tour the schools because we're not there every day or the schools all the time. So we got to go um up the stairs too. So back in the day when I was in Jan there seeing the showers like that in the basement in the basement. So, it was really neat and it's fun to go check out the schools >> and we'll make sure we get an invite for you as well >> and if it lines up in your schedule, you can make it. It'd be awesome. >> Any other questions? Thank you, Kevin. Okay, policies. >> My favorite part. >> Yeah, David. Um so

072for our new board members last year we started adding this first item prospective policies for review. Um this is an area where if a board member has a particular policy they would like the policy committee to review. Um they could say that now and we would add it to our next meeting um and go through that policy and they're welcome to attend that meeting as well and kind of tell us what their their interest in that policy is. Uh so first and foremost, does anyone have any perspective policies they would like us to review? >> And this will be on the agenda each month. >> So hearing none. >> Okay. Stole that from you Abby. I will move over to uh first readings for adoption. Um so the first readings for adoption this first section

073is OSBA initiated. Um so how our policy process works is OSBA is the state uh schoolboard association. They um pro provide template policies for a number of school districts, a majority of school districts. They have a legal team that goes through and and looks at the legislature and the laws that are changing and updates those policies and then they send us a a summary basically of all of the policies that are changed due to changing laws or uh new statutes or executive orders or things like that. So I take those and u put them on to our current policies and the policy committee reviews those changes. Sometimes we'll have select uh language we get to select. Um sometimes it's just changes of a a date changes or something like that. Uh so that's what these

074first this first section is. So this first one uh a policy on education records records of students with disabilities management. Uh this came from changes in rules regarding directory information. Um and I think I expect that and OSBA expects that we'll see more reviews on this as the the law kind of settles out. Um, next one on the list is IKF graduation requirements. Um, this update adds extended diploma information back to the notification requirements. There was a time there it was removed. Um, it has been added back in. Uh, this is a policy that you will see often in your tenure here at the board. I think we've seen it every other policy committee meeting at least. Um, so it does get changed a lot. It is a substantial and important policy though, so we're

075happy to look at that. Um these next two you will see duplicate policies JFCEB. The first one is our current policy which we will be uh deleting and the second one is the new version that takes into account the new executive order from Governor Cotch. Uh that's why in in some instances there are such radical changes to the policy it makes more sense to adopt whole cloth than to try and and graft on the important pieces onto our current policy. Uh so that's what was done here and that's what was recommended by OSD. Um moving on to JHCA JHC >> question. Oh yes. Um, so with the first reading, what is the next step? So the like the I I read the draft policy and it's it's a draft. It has, you know, pick five

076different options in this one section. Pick five different options in this one section. the you know any of these will meet the governor's requirements but it doesn't say which you know it doesn't give any indication of what cousay is actually >> our policy >> what a poly's actually going to be it's just the model document and so >> in in which one >> the JFC >> JFC >> yeah is there a policy this just talks about how there is going to be a policy and we should get rid of former policies but it doesn't say what the policy is. >> Yeah, we no we did make changes to this. So like so for example I guess I just don't know is this the right time to bring up questions about this? Okay, >> so um

077so I mean this policy says you know personal electronic devices must be placed in a district provided pouch or storage. Yeah, I'm I'm looking now. I think what happened? Let me see. >> We have made changes to this. I I must have uploaded the the original document and not the document that we made changes to. >> Okay. >> Uh because we've looked at those. >> Yeah. I I didn't realize until >> But I haven't >> I haven't had a chance to look at it. I would like to know what what we actually decided >> choices we made. So they're they're a separate policy committee, >> but that's what should have been on here is not. >> Yeah. >> So they'll go through those changes, then they recommend them to the board. >> And that's what

078should have been on here. So I'm looking for it right now so I can tell you definitively. >> Yeah. >> And you could put it in again next time. >> I have it on by hand here. >> It's just the first reading, >> but I think we should first read it for everybody to have their own copy. >> Yes, absolutely. Absolutely. But generally speaking, >> yeah, we needed one that he did. We >> look at it again and then it goes into second reading. >> And when the second that is meeting >> basically the second reading is just on the consent agenda. We don't ever go back and discuss it again >> unless somebody >> unless it's brought up individually. Unless it's private and then the um Okay. But we have to have this policy

079adopted by October 31st, right? >> No, by January actually. >> I think the policy is October 31st. Implementation is January. >> Oh, yeah. Okay. >> So, you'll can we have this next month with the corrections that you guys came up with? >> Yes. I'm I'm sorry. I'm struggling. is first reading. Are you able to just email the correct one? >> Yes, I I can email out the correct one tomorrow. But still, we have >> we have two meetings between now and October 31st. So, what I will do >> is I will still add it for first reading because I think the community deserves to see those things too at a board meeting. Um, >> so that that's my maka on that for not getting the changes on this policy. Um, I do have them. I

080will send them out to you this week and then I will add them to our October 13th meeting for first reading and then I will move them uh for our data meeting. We don't typically, but I'll I'll add them just so we can get them approved by October 31st. But that is a good catch and I appreciate you bringing that up. That's not normally how they would look. Um, >> yeah. Yeah, normally it'll come to you >> with colors showing you what has been changed in the for final format. >> Again, again, OSBA was super helpful because I I read this document. I read this document at OSBA. So, I was reading this and I was like, this can't possibly be ours because it's >> because this is what I saw there. >> This is

081what I saw there. >> Okay. >> No. Yeah. So, if if you looked at uh like the first one, I fab you know, J, you'll see, you know, the strike through the track changes. That's what it typically would look like. Uh >> I think that the next one we were going to the JHCB uh it has those strike through. >> Yeah. Oh, okay. Excellent. Um so yeah, I will I will square that away this week. Um >> but just so you know, there is a policy committee. You're welcome to be on it. >> Yeah. >> Um but right now the two of us are on it and we go over it before this meetings. So you would have seen our changes had been done in there. And if if you're not able to be, you

082know, you can just go to the meeting. Anyone meeting if there's something that in particular a policy looking at >> as long as there are not. >> Yeah. >> I would I would also u like to encourage board members because I do send the the policy committee agenda out to everyone. If you have suggestions or or things you're really concerned about, please let me know in advance. I'm happy to share that. If you're not able to attend a policy committee meeting, uh you can always email me and I'm happy to share that at the meetings as well. Um moving on to uh JHCAJHCB. Uh they added some language to this around concussions and other brain injuries. Um, this was due to the Oregon legislature adopting House Bill uh 3007 um outlining steps that must be

083taken uh regarding concussions and brain injuries. And then we have Can I point out one thing that I thought was odd about this policy? >> Sure. Um uh the footnote number seven where it talks about health care professionals doesn't actually include physicians includes chiropractic physicians, naturopathic physicians, psychologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, physicians assistant and nurse practitioner. >> Yes. Um and I I did look into did I send you that? >> I might not I probably just haven't had a time to look at it. I is it listed somewhere else and I'm just missing it. >> Yeah. So what it is is if you look at um the paragraph above right below concussions and other brain injuries, >> the first step um is to be uh diagnosed by an oh sorry uh an athletic trainer licensed

084by the board of athletic trainers or a physician licensed pursuant to OS blah blah blah. Um, and then it says except as allowed above, you need to go through one of these steps. So, the reason it's indicating those is it already said a physician. That's the first method. Okay. >> And those are just other optional methods had you not seen a physician. >> Um, >> so yeah, >> thank you. I I just I I couldn't understand that. I I didn't pick up on that sequential nature of Thank you. >> Yeah, absolutely. >> But a doctor. I thought it was very weird. Yeah. No, I I I saw you and I for a second there I was I was just as confused. I was like, "What is happening?" And then I I read through and that's

085what I put >> alopathic position. That was strange. >> All right. Um then we have policy DBA, our budget committee. Uh it was just a change to some references. So no substantial change there. Uh then we have first readings for adoption. Uh district initiated. These are ones that um the administration in the district chose to change, not OSBA initiated. And we have the uh and that's I think that's important to point out too. Anything that we change still goes to OSBA to be vetted before it is uploaded. So our the legal team at OSBA will say you can't do that. That's against the law. Um so we're not we're not at risk of doing something that's not um compliant with the legislature because it still is vetted through OSBA. Um that one was just to

086change and increase the frequency of grade book updates and make a slight change to um uh progress reports as far as case six. So uh 712 will be we'll be moving from it was every three weeks that grade books would be adopted. We're moving to every other week. Uh and then the uh conferences, it used to be uh K6 uh grade students will receive three progress reports in the final grade. We moved that to uh they will receive two report cards at the end of each semester along with two additional conferences on progress reports during the school year. Uh so they'll actually get one more uh point of contact and those line up really well with our already preset conference days and you know early November get a progress report progress monitoring to families and

087then again in April. So it kind of splits those quarters up. So families are getting four contacts on student progress throughout the year. And then we have first ratings for deletion. Um this these were a result of our policy analysis we uh started last February. Uh there was a number of policies that were outdated and no longer supported by OSBA that they recommend that we delete. Um part of that is even though sometimes the information in these policies is is is good information, it's not required to be in policy. And the the concern if we continue to use a policy that is not supported by OSBA is they will no longer vent that policy and tell us when the legislature has changed and made part of that policy illegal. So, it puts us it puts

088us at a liability because there's no one that's going back and looking at these policies that they haven't updated since 1998. And the the world has changed around that policy and we're stuck with this policy because we didn't know to change it. Um, so that that's part of the reason that we want to get through and delete these. Once we finish this policy analysis, which we're a good majority through, we won't see deleted policies very often. And if that does happen, it's usually like above where we are deleting one to replace it with another. The only reason we have a list of 10 is because we had a fair few that needed. >> Um, does anyone have any questions? >> Thank you, J. >> Lauren, did you have any questions? >> Um, how many committees

089are there in the district? >> How many committees? Oh, that's uh there's a mean that are attached to the board. >> Oh, board committees. I can tell you right now. Hold on. >> That's a lot less. >> Yeah, I was going to say I I can't answer that with any uh certain more committee >> board committee. It's not a board. >> Yes, it is. >> Oh, it went back to board committee. I thought it was superintendent. No, she was super tat. >> Well, he's looking that up. What's your next question? >> How is funding divided to be all means? >> Pardon me. >> Uh between the different schools, how is the funding divided? Is that through negotiation or >> that is a much much bigger conversation. Um it's determined by the budget committee that meets

090in the spring. Um and and again, how about we do that meeting and we can kind of go through the full budget and you can see kind of the the breakdown of the budget committee because it's a pretty extensive process. Then how are different graduation policies or requirements made fair amongst all schools. For example, if one school has less requirements than another school nearby, how is that are they associated or >> it's a good question. >> The state graduation requirements are set by Oregon Department of Education >> at the state level. They're all state >> school districts can add ones if they would like >> that they can't take away >> that can be different from school to school. >> Okay. And the other thing you need to know is, but if you do that,

091if you transfer in as a senior, if you come in in a military family, if you come in for a bunch of different reasons, you have to honor the minimum requirements to give them the diploma so that you don't expect something from them and they didn't know it before they got it. >> Okay. Um, how do you finalize a draft policy? >> How do you finalize a draft policy? So finally that's uh so as I went through those policies here they go through a first reading of the board um that provides opportunity for uh the community to hear the first reading to see the documents which are online and that way if they want to come to the next meeting and speak about that policy they have the opportunity to do so. Um and then

092they go to the second meeting where they are then adopted by the board. Uh so the board first goes through policy committee where we make the draft. We present it to the rest of the board uh for first reading and then usually about a month later at our next meeting we'll do a second reading and the policy is inevitably adopted from and Warren most of the board policies come from the Oregon School Board Association folks. They trickle down from OD, a lot of them in state requirements, state laws, but they draw up these policies and send them to us for draft and then what David just said in the adoption. >> And if you look on the website, there's an area for us for board members to go to that has in it our agendas,

093all of the where all the policies live and all of that so we can stay organized and see them and read them too. Um, so it's all available online. >> Okay. >> And to answer your your question from earlier, there there's really four dedicated committees, but there are a number of other committees where board members are participants on that committee. Um, and that's also on that that same page on our website. If you go to leadership and schoolboard, you can go to committee assignments and it tells you which of each board member is on which committee. Um, and where they're just members on committees as well. >> Okay. Um, does the legislature and the school board meet to negotiate or is the legislature mandated and brought over here? >> Legislation's done at the state level.

094They do take input at times. >> No, every time they have a meeting, >> they take input. They take input. Not >> meeting just like they do here. You have a public meeting. Um, and then people come in, they can write comments in. We get thousands of pages. It's a kind of amazing process. Um, and then they end up voting in the committee. That committee vote goes to the floor of the house. It gets passed on the floor of the house. Then it goes back to another committee in the Senate and they go through the whole process again. And then they pass it out of the committee. It goes to the Senate floor. The Senate has to have a debate and then they pass it. And after it's been ha passed in the house and

095the senate, if they are exactly the same, it goes to the governor. If they are not exactly the same, it goes back to the other house to go through the process one more time before it comes out and get goes to the governor to be signed and then it becomes a law. >> There's a really cool cartel called >> and what's really cool too is all of it is transparent and made public and online. So you can go to um whatever it's called.gov, right? >> Whatever.gov and you can watch the sessions. You can see everything that's happening um and you can watch something move through all of those bodies at the state level at the capital in Salem. Um and see how it all happens. >> So the naming is O Lis. Oregon Legislative Information

096Service >> and it's online and you can watch a committee I don't know committee you can watch the Senate debate a transportation bill they were supposed to have done it last week but one of the members one of the members had an operation so he couldn't be there and they didn't have enough votes to pass it so >> so they both gave him two weeks to get better and then they'll have another hearing and it'll be on us >> and you can watch committee um >> yeah Oh, and committee meetings roll on over. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> This isn't another committee meeting in the short session. >> Does OSBA post I would imagine also when they're tracking bills there. They probably have something like because it could be difficult to navigate a Senate bill

097>> for anybody. >> Um on that website, >> it's better than it is on the other ones from and all the other. Okay. >> Okay. >> I'm going to tell you it's not easy. It's not easy. >> Yeah. Watch, you know, >> you lobby some state agencies. There are folks in the agency who that is their job because they're watching bills. >> And the hard part is at the beginning of a session. >> There are thousands of bills. >> Yes. >> There's only going to be hundred until they get passed. So, you don't want >> 4,000 in this. >> Okay. Let's move on. >> Unless you have any other questions. Do you >> uh three, but I got more grass. Uh I think I might have already asked this, but how is a Senate bill

098affected by the school board? >> How are Senate bills? >> Very little. >> It's the other way around. >> They affect us. We don't affect them. >> But we as members of the public can comment on >> not as policies policy. How are they divided? >> No. How are they decided? >> Oh, the policy committee. >> We don't actually decide on policy. What we do is review existing policy. Although if somebody wants to bring forward an idea about a policy, we can >> but we do >> but they do it collaboratively. We do have a kind of I wouldn't say it's a vote but we ask we get a consensus on what we want it to be as a committee and that's what comes forward to this is the consensus on that policy and there

099we had some interesting conversations last policy because the state changed some things about directory information which took us by surprise you know can't have grade level anymore without getting permission to grade level a whole bunch of things that we have to we had to think about and then we we called back and asked David did >> clarifying about is that really true we have to do that and we got an answer back and >> wasn't the answer we wanted >> not the answer we want >> language it's a lot about language >> and and Warren another piece of that policy is when I when I provide all of the updates that OSDA has recommended sometimes there is language we get to choose between often what I'll do in that case is I always will send

100it out to our administrative team um for their suggestions. Um they don't always have suggestions, but sometimes they have good suggestions like a policy that might be really uh important in HR. Our HR director looks at that before the policy committee and often will attend the policy committee meeting to give her two cents on what she thinks the district's best move would be with selective language. >> How often does the OSDA factor in the new office? How often is the do what? >> Factor in the new laws. >> Always. It's an ongoing process. >> Every week they can send us new policies based on new laws that were passed. So >> they also get involved in the passing of the laws in the first place. So when you talk about hearings, OSBA or members from

101them are all at every one of the education committee meetings where any of the the bills are coming forward and they put their two cents in after they've talked to us in every one of those hearings. And then when that P law is passed and they put a whole group a team together to start deciding what that means and just to get into more in the weeds, a bill gets passed. But it's the administrative rules that enact the bill and that's done by the state department of education who take the bill and then translate it into what they think it means making rules which OSBA has to look at in classes. >> Okay. Uh how much is decided by OSBA? >> How much >> is decided by OSBA? >> Nothing's decided by them. They just

102make recommendations and we can follow. They're almost like a if you're referring to like Senate bills, they're almost like a lobbyist in a way where they're sitting they're kind of the person that or the the agency that the schools select to represent us and we give them our feedback whether we like certain Senate bills or if we want a Senate bill to be axed. I guess I I I don't know if they consider themselves the lobbyist, but that's that's where they have lobbyist. Okay. And they come back and they report on the bills, what's going up, and they'll come and talk to us. There's two of them right now, but you guys are very important to us. So, good questions. I want I have a question for you. What are you going to be when

103you grow up? >> All right. That's what I thought. >> Okay. >> Thank you. Do you have any more questions? >> Pardon me. >> What's a lobbyist? A lobbyist is a person who goes and spreads your point of view and tries and change other people's minds to to the way you want them to >> and they have to register with the state pay something for that. They can't lobby x number of hours go to the legislature on a particular issue. If you do that for more than I think it's three or four days >> then it's against the law for you to do it. You are not registered as a lobbyist with TS question. >> Okay. >> Perfect. Thank you. Okay. Next item, board goals. I so move that we adopt our school year school

104board goals and with the addition of our tenative goal number four which reads the board will champion a positive district culture by supporting a robust communication framework that builds trust, fosters transparency, and consistently celebrate student and staff success. Is there a second? >> I'll second. >> Okay. Let's have discussion. >> So, did we did we pick one of those options? >> No, this is our schoolboard goals. We had already said the first three that we wanted and we had um asked David to words smmith the fourth goal that I just read and I felt like that was a very wonderful board that he works. This is not the ones for the superintendent goals which will be the ones we get to pick. >> It's your working agreements working agreements. >> That's the working agreement. >>

105Yeah. >> Yes. >> Okay. So >> we have some question. >> These are the four goals that we came to on Saturday. >> It's been moved and seconded that we establish these and adopt them as our board goals for the 2526 school year. >> Is there any further discussion? >> I would just like to say that um and I know we haven't gotten to the superintendent goals yet, but we we we reviewed them um and have seen them and I don't I don't think they've changed, but we're about to see next. they haven't changed. So, uh I just want to encourage the board to um either adopt or do a little word smithing for goal four that we marked as tenative. Um because I feel like the the superintendent's goals are really rigorous and really

106courageous. And I I say courageous because I think that they will be achieved um through communications and relationships with people between people although many of them are related to various kinds of programs um that the schools are using. I think that good communication with people is hard work and requires clarity, discipline and accountability. And to me, this also requires some vulnerability, which I think takes courage, which is why I use that word courage. Um, and I think this is the kind of communication that requires a um perhaps some discomfort if it's to be done really well and honestly. And so, and that's like at every level of our school community, faculty, families, staff. Um, and so I'd like to see the board um perhaps wordsmith that goal and then continue to work closely with Miss

107Roberts on strategies for that. >> So you you would vote no on this. >> Well, no, we're not voting. >> I did. >> Well, yeah. We are voting and I you made a motion. >> No, we're not voting, right? This is still discussion, right? Yes, we're having a discuss discussion. >> I didn't call for a vote. I >> Oh, I thought you said would you vote no on this? >> She asked her. >> I did. I'm asking her a question, Kim. >> Oh, I guess I'm You know what I'm asking to do? Wait a minute. Um I think maybe I'm asking if I can do this to amend the motion to accept the three uh and not number four which is which has tentative written on it >> uh to give us an opportunity to

108spend a little more time with it at our next board meeting. >> I would second that. >> Or you can take it as a friendly >> you can take it as a friendly amendment then. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Are we still in discussion? >> Yes. >> Okay. I um I can go either way. I I do think words are important. >> We're in discussion of the amendment now, just so you know. >> So, we're not talking about the goal. >> We are. >> We're talking about the goal number four. >> Can I just say what I want to say and then you guys can tell me if I'm off point or not? >> How do you really feel? I'm just saying I I definitely I'm all about word smithing and and I'm all about

109that, but let's remember what what the actual bull is and not that words aren't important because they very very much are important, but um I don't want to lose my train of thought here. Um I don't want to get hung up on it. That's it. I don't want to get hung up on specific words if it's not really lending to something that is going to make a difference. >> But maybe position is that it is making a difference. The words are making a difference. >> I'm saying I'm agreeing with maybe. Um what I am saying is that we could do that a thousand times. We could word miss something. If we're going to add something, let's make sure it means something instead of just >> agreed >> going over. >> Arie, >> I would I

110I like that. One, two, and three. So, I agree. I can agree with that. If we're going to do wood, we don't have time on the board to do wood word smithing. So, I would say that if that's what Mie wants to do, we should she should come back with a proposal with respect to something that's different than what we have there. >> Okay. because somebody needs to do that. I don't know that we have the time as a group we have conversation. >> I agree. I just I I also sorry to interrupt over another thing. I I do want some conversation because it takes all of us. >> You can you can >> Okay. Um so the motion is um has been friendly amended to accept numbers 1, two, and three as our goals,

111the board goals for the 2526 school year. Is that my understanding? >> Okay. So further discussion. Kim, >> hi >> Derek. >> Hi >> Kevin. >> Hi >> Arie. >> Hi >> Mie. >> Hi >> Diane. >> Hi. And the chair votes I. >> Okay. School board has some goals. Now we're on to the superintendent goals. >> And as you take a look at those, I need to do a word smment on number one. Um on number one, uh after 9th grade on track, it says four and fiveyear grad rate. It should say fouryear grad rate, graduation rate, and fiveyear completion rate. So, we're going to make that adjustment, but I want that please to be noted as you're looking at the goal of number one, four-year graduation and five-year completion rate. >> And these

112were the goals that were presented on Saturday. >> They were the goals that were presented on Saturday. And then I took the suggestions uh from our discussion, went and um I would say cleaned them up, but number one needed further cleaning, but I I went and um worked on them and now I'm back for hope full approval. >> I so move that we approve the superintendent goals for 2526 school year with the amendment that Mr. Robert just said with a fouryear graduation rate and a fiveyear >> completion rate. >> Is there a second? >> I'll second. >> I was sitting here waiting. >> I'm just reading something. I'm sorry. >> That's why Mason That's why masons work so much better at the legislator. >> Okay, it's been moved and seconded. Is there any discussion? I

113just wanted point of clarification. You these five goals I'm only seeing five when I click on the link. Are the are are all of those other goals rolled up in here? >> Yeah. The >> the 90% the 80%. >> The theory is if we can hit our KPIs then these goals are going to we're going to meet these goals. >> Okay. So those are going to those roll up in Yes. Correct. >> Thank you. >> Yeah. Absolutely. Other clarification. So you know your two um community and student surveys um for who do you consider to be part of the community? So is that going to be your administrative team? Is that going to be your teachers? Is that going to be families of the students? And you know I just community is a very broad

114word and wondering what what you mean by that. >> It's a great question. Um, and it at this time I would like to kind of investigate more on what community means in terms of what we want as a district. So I don't I I'm >> it's several thoughts. You know, David and I were talking about how the student success committee is going to help us a bunch in terms of the student surveys and and climate surveys of that nature. We also have community members involved in that organization as well as staff. So we could incorporate some of these surveys into that group helping us develop the survey because it does have family members, community advocates, staff, and students. And so, it's kind of still to be determined, but I would like to get as much

115feedback from as many folks as we can in terms of the climate of the school district as as felt by business owners, community members, parents, staff, students, all-encompassing. >> Just Yeah. I think I think um fine to be fine to be general in in in this. I you just encourage you to um you can't measure what you don't define. >> And so uh you're going to have to define what you mean by community to measure it well. And I think as you report back on your goals, one of the things we hope I would hope to see is is more definition um as you get into making survey. Any further discussion? Hearing none, the motion is on the floor that we adopt the superintendent goals as amended with the reference to completion, four-year graduation rate,

116and five-year completion rate for the 2526 school year. Um Diane, >> we're voting now. >> I hi >> Arie. >> Hi. >> Kevin, >> hi. >> Darra, >> hi. >> Kim, >> hi. >> And the chair votes I. >> Okay, we have superintendent goals. >> Thank you. >> Now we're on to the board of directors and superintendent working agreement. I so move that we adopt our space school district board of directors and superintendent working agreements with option B superintendent oversight. The board holds the sole authority for all personnel management processes concerning the superintendent including hiring and performance evaluation. The superintendent serves as the primary administrative leader and adviser working in collaborative team any collaborative team with the board. Is there a second? >> Second. >> Okay, it's been moved and seconded. Is there any discussion?

117She >> which uh B >> option B >> superintendent including So one thing that I noticed it left up on that and not take person on it but it says concerning the superintendent including hiring slashfiring and performance evaluation because that's really part of the job. >> Yeah. Not to me like >> well that yeah that's I would consider that part of the performance evaluation. I you could you know talk about we could divvy it out into salary and whatnot. The other ones you know evaluate provide personal over personnel oversight for the superintendent. I mean that all goes into personnel. It's um not only firing but it's disciplinary action could be putting them on leave or something. So you don't want to just make it firing and firing. >> You can't just say just there's two

118things in that. So it's a process. >> How else could we >> I was just thinking adding that word and leaving the whole paragraph as it is. Just that word with another comma. >> But the thing is that those aren't the only two things including hiring and firing if there's also >> and performance evaluation. >> No, it's personnel management processes, right? That's the whole that that encompasses a whole portion of that. It's eval evaluation. It's >> we could even take out include hiring is what you're saying. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> We could we could take out including hiring and performance evaluation because >> because technically management processes concern personnel management processes. Are you asking that we do that >> since May? >> It has moved to second. So somebody >> Well, you can make

119an amendment. >> That's what we're saying. >> Yes. >> Wait, we're doing so we're looking at option B. >> Option B. >> Yes. Y. >> Are you recommending a change? >> I mean, uh, I'm not going to be a lone writer on this, but yes. I'll do a friendly motion to add that word with a comma. >> I mean, is is firing the I don't Okay. Um, >> there's only a couple rules really have. I mean, >> and we're fluffing it up by not adding the one. >> Well, I think there's a lot of processes in personnel management. >> Yeah. >> Um, probably quite a few. But isn't this isn't a saying that that the the board the board our sole authority is in the personal management processes for Gary. >> Yes. >> That's right.

120>> And hiring him. >> Yes. We we hire, fire, and performance evaluate Gary. >> Right. That's it. We don't do other We don't do other evaluations. >> He's just asking the word firing be put in there. >> Oh, I see. Well, do we hold this authority if he needs to go to HR because of >> Yes. >> something? >> Yeah. If he does something >> private, >> we could we could we could put him on the lead page for a whole bunch of things besides hiring. >> Yeah. See, that's why I don't limit it to just those things, but I'd be willing to take out hiring. >> Do we have sole authority once he asks for a day off? >> You know what I'm saying? Like again to me just personnel management processes is a

121long list. >> It encompasses all >> HR. We are the sole. We can say no you can't take a vacation. >> Yes. >> These are one employee. >> We wouldn't. >> But I'm not going to list >> as he's over there with these eyes like don't ever do that. >> Daddy had already asked if somebody would vote no. >> I I will vote no. >> Okay. No, I wouldn't want to list them all. I to me the including are only two examples of things that we do. >> Yeah. So, you did not ex you don't have to vote. No, you just don't accept it as a >> amendment >> which means we're canceling that. It's an amendment a separate amendment. >> What's another word for firing or the whole process of that? Like is there

122if if >> I like to ask David say employment but just instead of having >> we're not the only district that has termination working agreements >> no um although I I will be honest I haven't thoroughly reviewed other districts working agreements but >> what I what I would say on this is I I think that this is all all covered in that first sentence, the board holds the sole authority for all personnel management processes concerning the superintendent. And it adds those so that you know the type of if you don't know what personnel process, you can get an idea from those two examples. Um I think I say including but not limited to [Music] >> well hiring and personal and >> hiring and termination. >> Termination's a better word for me. Termination's a much better

123word on >> Is there a second to the amendment? We haven't even gone there. Is there a second to the amendment? >> I didn't hear the amendment. I'm sorry. >> He just want to put firing in. wants to add the word hiring and firing and personnel in uh personnel performance evaluation. >> No, there's not a second. >> There's no second. >> I'll second it. >> You asked again. >> I'll I'll second it. >> Okay. So the most the amendment on the floor right now is that option B be amended to read. The board holds the sole authority for all personnel management processes concerning the superintendent including hiring comma firing comma and performance evaluation. The superintendent serves as the primary administrator Peter. It was not second. >> So, I did Thank you, Derek. I didn't hear.

124>> My board is getting testy. It's not even that late. >> Okay. So, um is there any further discussion on the amendment adding the word firing? >> Are we hung up on firing? Can we use like the word ter? I don't know why it makes a difference to me, but it just seems I would be surprised to see that in any kind of policy or handbook anywhere that >> No, we can have two amendments, >> right? I remember this, right? >> There's an amendment on the floor right now. Is there any further discussion of the amendment? But you can go up to two amendments is what you can make. >> I can amend. >> Yes, you can make a friendly amendment that the board hiring for >> You can at the board at the board

125chair's discretion and the board chair will not accept another amendment on an amendment significant impact on how >> Come on guys, let's go. This is silly. We're having too long a discussion over one word. >> I am not going to it's not going to have a significant impact. I'd like to finish my sentence and so I do not need to make the amendment and I will be okay with voting on this. >> Okay. So, we're voting on the amendment which includes the words vying. Diane >> I >> Mie, >> hi. >> Kevin, >> hi >> Derek. Jim, >> I'll say hi to >> you'll say God auction. >> The chair votes Nick. >> So it is 4 to2. The motion passes. So we're now on to the full adoption of the working agreement unless there

126are any other amendments. Oh, we have to go back to the original mode. >> We are. >> Oh, no, we don't. The amendment. >> No pass. >> Wasn't that amendment to per original? Don't we have to vote on the original? >> Yeah, that's what we're talking about now. We're discussing >> not on the whole thing. I'm just saying on on accepting B. >> Oh. >> Because all we did right now is accept the amendment or initial. >> Okay. So is there any further discussion on option B? The wording of option B hearing none. Diane >> I >> Kevin >> I >> Derek >> and the chair votes nay. Um, okay. So, the motion passes and we are then using option B as amended. So, we're back at the original motion, which was to accept the

127board of directors and superintendent working agreement. Is there any further discussion on that aisle? Hearing none. Diane, >> wait. What are we voting on? >> We're voting on the >> to accept the Kuz Bay School District board of directors and superintendent working agreement for the 2526. >> What did we just vote on before that? >> Just to go with option to go with option >> the wording of option B. >> Oh, I thought that we did that the first time. First one was to have firing. The second one was to choose option B with the word fire. And now the third time is round is we get to do the document itself. >> Okay. >> Well, I have one more question, but >> Okay. What was your question? This is your time. >> This is

128my one chance. If we added personal conduct that we have for the board to the superintendence, it would give like a 77 on our requirements. It just change it. See >> what you mean? >> So right here where it says personal conduct. >> Yeah. >> Abide by the board rule of policies and code of volunteer. Add that to the supers also. So that he would have a seven seven items to kind of look at. We have seven items. But that's on the superintendent's thing and we passed that. We're we're pass that table. >> We're on to the working. >> All right. >> You're back at the superintendent goal. >> Tabled then. Okay. Yeah. That table down there. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Is there any other discussion on the working agreement? We're all getting down. Diane,

129we're voting on the working. I would like to very much so put this working agreement into play. >> I Kevin >> Kim >> chair votes I >> and Kim will register as an abstension. >> Okay. And the motion passes. Okay. And there we go. >> I don't >> I know a lot of It keeps going back to the beginning. Okay, we are on to board member highlights. This is an opportunity for us to just go around and tell about anything we've done with the school district, our schools, the district as a whole. Diane, do you have anything this month? >> I don't have anything. >> Maybe. >> Uh, not today. Thank you. >> Arie, >> just to reiterate what was said earlier when they had it was a great the South Stand recognition for people

130at the football game I thought was nicely done and I appreciate all the work that community and others put into getting it to the point where it is now. >> Thank you. Enjoy going to the game. >> Yeah, same here. I love to go to the games and give a shout out to Loma and the guys over at facilities for getting all the stuff done that did not require extra funding. We had it made it happen and it's looking good and went press. Yeah. >> Derek. >> Yeah. I wanted to shout out the Marshfield uh junior high cross country team. They had their first meet on Friday uh down at the Cranberry Bog in Bandon. um the the girls race. Um Isabelle Smith won the 3000 uh in a time of 11:45. So you think

131about just how fast that is. That's that's like two mi, you know, that's two milesish really really quickly >> um for somebody who's in uh junior high. And then um I just wanted to shout out Kendall Qualman actually uh tripped and fell at the beginning of the race. Got up and got a personal best. So that's it's a lot of guts. >> Yeah, that's good. >> And then in the boys race, um Maddox Frell uh was second overall. So, you know, I just thought it was a really great outing for our junior high cross country team. Good job, guys. >> Kim, >> um let's see. Um I attended our facilities meeting and then we had an ESD board training with OSBA. I happen to be the only board member there from a board and um
