001callucation. >> Um to start, we don't have any school highlights tonight. Anyone signed up for public comment? >> No one signed up. Okay. Uh, we'll go to 3.01. Roll call. Everyone but Brian Smith and Shanoa Emery are present. We may have some of them joining us later um with the drive-in, but um then move on to 3.02 approval of the agenda. >> I move approval of the agenda. >> There's been a motion and a second. All in favor? Motion passes four to zero. Move on to disposition of business by consent. I may the board of education approve business by consent including payment of bills in the amount of 5,214,826.97. >> Second a motion and a second. All in favor? Motion passes four to zero. Um we'll move on to section five. No administrator reports. So
002section six items for discussion 6.01 is the GMP for Auburn Elementary. >> Yep. Got a couple of guests in the audience. Uh Josh and Whitney are going to come up. So, thank you both for being here. >> All right. Thank you all. Uh what you have before you tonight is the amendment for Auburn Elementary. Um it's probably old hat for several of you. Um so certainly willing to answer any questions you may have uh regarding the scope, timing, things of that nature. Um but to just give you a little update on uh how the bidding process went, we were we were pleased with the uh coverage we got. um averaged about three biders per bid per bid package. Um and then also to give you a little update on the uh local participation as well.
003Um of the bid packages we had, we had Topeka biders uh on 13 of them. Um and let me see here. Um so total uh participation um that could be achieved with local particip uh local biders is about a million dollars on this job. Um with the uh pricing that we have in front of you and the low bidders uh we're sitting a little over 700,000 so a little over 70% going to local bidders. Um we did present a few uh alternates for consideration to the facilities committee as well um if you wanted to increase that a little bit. Um but aside from that, we have the uh base bid of just over 2.2 million. Um there are uh six uh alternates to be considered. Um again, those were discussed with the facilities committee and
004I'll I'll defer to them for that further discussion. Uh as well as a few um possible ad alternates to increase the local participation, but uh the intent would be to start with a portion of this work over spring break. bulk of the work starting over the summer um with everything wrapping up at the end of the summer. So >> with that, I'll answer any questions. >> Questions or comments? >> Brian, >> I don't have any questions. I would just say we had the facility committee meeting before this and I think some of the alternates need to be considered for the board and so um but everything looked really good and excited for the Auburn community and for the school to get these improvements. >> A nice facility >> for anybody that might be listening or
005watching uh online. So it's very common that we have alternatives uh anytime we go through a guaranteed maximum price process. So many times I'll just write the motion with a gen guaranteed maximum price because that's what's coming in on the document that comes uh from the builder. Uh in this case through the facility committee meeting there will be some alternatives that are added. So whoever reads the motion will say and the addition of the alternative as discussed as a facility committee. So yep, we're set. >> Any other questions or comments? >> Appreciate all your work on that. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> All right, we move on to 6.02. Incoming board member Casey Johnson. Yeah. So, we just wanted to state publicly that Casey ran for the seat that was occupied by Jackie Litecap
006and as she announced that she wasn't able to come all the way to the close of her term. So, she stopped just a few board meetings early. So, the chair is sitting vacant. So, I think that board leadership visited with Casey and said if you're available to come on a little bit early. The official uh incoming date is the second Monday in January. Um but I think at the board level the conversation was silly to keep the chair vacant. If you want to go ahead and come on in. So um he's not able to join us this evening. Um but that's why that's a motion as an item for discussion. You'll see it later as an action item and then he'll officially be a board member. We did ask or confirm that he's been sworn
007in at the Shauny County Election Office and he has been. So he's ready to go. So that was the conversation that took place. >> Is that an accurate summary? >> Yep. Any other questions, comments on that? Sounds good. >> All right. >> I didn't know in this case if he'd have to be sort in twice since he's finishing up Jackie's term >> for three weeks or whatever, but >> Yep. We can confirm that. >> Whatever. Okay. That's something I would ask that you make sure that he doesn't need to be sworn in twice. >> Yeah. >> All right. We'll move on to action item. 7.01 is the guaranteed maximum price for Auburn Elementary School. >> Okay. I'd move the board of education approve the guaranteed maximum price of $2,232,991 for the Auburn Elementary bond construction
008as well as the alternates previous discussed in the facility meeting. >> Second. >> It's been a motion and a second. All those in favor? Motion passes 5 to zero. On to 7.02, which is incoming board member Casey Johnson. >> I move the board of education approve the appointment of Casey Johnson effective immediately. Second. >> There's been a motion and a second. All those in favor? Motion passes 5 to zero. We'll move on to 7.03, which is the 2026 2027 school calendar. >> So, we presented that last time.

So, we'll vote on it tonight. >> Must be December. >> Move that. the board of education approve the 2026 2027 school calendar as presented. >>

And the learning services team is actually in a conference first couple days of this week. So they're not here. I told them I would try to answer any questions if you had them. I would move the board of education approve the presented standards as the official district curriculum for K12 mathematics. >> Second. >> There's been a motion and a second. All those in favor?

All those in favor? Motion passes five to zero. Um, no communications tonight.
