001for you to review. Any questions? >> Please speak up on all. >> I move to approve the treasures report as presented. >> Motion by Allison. >> Second by Josh. All those in favor say I. I >> any opposed? Same sign. Motion passes 6. >> Reconciliation and cash balances report is also there for you to review. Oh, wait. Sorry. >> Yeah. Approval of the invoices. Mr. Murphy, is there anything you would like to draw our attention to? >> Yes. So, we do have a couple of items on there. Number one, we do have our middle school track uniforms. That was uh $4,254. We have our graduation alliance billable credits. It was a little under 96,000. It's our monthly expense for our virtual uh gym roof access ladders also on there to meet the requirements in our
002high school gym. That was 9,439. And then we did have to bring quite quite quite a bit of sorry quite a bit of gravel in for the back roadway behind the high school and middle school. So that was that came in at $4,180.80. So, the other items on there are normal invoiced items for anybody else have any questions or comments. >> Hearing none, I would entertain a motion to approve the invoices as presented. So, move >> motion by Allison and second by Josh. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Any oppose? Same sign. Motion passes 6. Now, reconciliation of cash balances report and those are on there for you to review. Any questions or comments? Item number seven, recognition of visitors. And just a reminder, this will be your opportunity to speak for
003five minutes to the board, but it is not a question answer or back and forth. for discussion. So the first person is Linda >> Bristo. Lucky me, huh? >> I imagine you all know me. We were lucky enough to come here. God sent us in 74. My husband taught coach, was honored by being put in the Hall of Fame years ago. He coached track until CO hit in 2020 and passed away in July of that summer. He loved the school. He loved the kids. He loved coaching and teaching. This building is in good shape and you want to close it. Something to think about. Putting kids on a bus in the early morning, putting them on a bus. They have no time to play in the evenings if they're on a bus. This school has
004taught a lot of kids and they've done very well. My oldest daughter has been a teacher. She retired year or two or three ago. My youngest son has been a registered nurse, worked hard in upstate New York. He came from the education that he got here. Think about it. This school has a lot of history. A lot of kids, all of my kids graduated from here. My grand kids, some of them. It will hurt the town not to have a school. Think about it. Thank you. >> Charlene Lincoln. >> Y'all look at me. You know me, huh? I worked for the school here for 18 years as a PAR educator. And um I don't know I don't know the numbers for sure of how many of our kids right now from the elementary are getting
005on buses to go to other schools. Has anybody on this board taken the time to find out why why aren't they leaving this school? I can speak for my granddaughter. She is now a sixth grader. She goes over to Lucas Laorray because of the fifth grade teacher last year when she went to Mrs. Moore for help. You know what she was told? Go ask one of the boys. She wouldn't help her on numerous occasions. H and you put her in the principal's position. Sad sad. Have you has any of you on the board even taken the time to find out why there's at least 10 on the bus that goes to Lucas? I don't know how many goes to Russell or how many goes to Ellsworth, but have you found out why they are going
006there? Our numbers are down. Yay for you guys because our numbers are down. So now you can close our school. Y'all ought to be ashamed. That's all I'd like to say. >> Margaret Stole. Well, either way, the name is in stone. Stone. Well, I don't understand why. I I don't know for sure, but I don't think Clapman was ever any bigger or smaller than Wilson. They're about the same size of school. And why Wilson with a new school? Well, we're losing money. We're losing money. And I don't don't understand it. And I don't I just don't understand it. That's all I've got to say about >> Alex. Me. I didn't prepare anything. I just It said to sign. I'm sorry. >> Just here for the meeting. >> Okay. >> And then Robera Meyer. I'm Robera
007Meyer, a retired licensed educational education professional. I spent my last 15 years serving in a K6 library. I'm not a registered voter of 112. I reside in USD 299 school district. I've taken multiple opportunities to listen, to observe, and to try to understand the complexities of this educational situation we are now in. I've invested much time to my husband's grin and effort, and I've also offered my services and advice. I've served on the Wilson Site Council and the Wilson Education Foundation and we are happy to be awarding three scholarships annually. Now, I'm going to skip a little bit and I'll come back to this. The Wilson school closure uh decreases local jobs by 31. The closure will also harm surrounding communities. Some of you live in them. um on my sheet and I can leave
008it with you. The starred programs show services generated in Wilson that serve surrounding communities and towns including Dorance, Ellsworth, Hollywood, Canopoulos, Silvin to name a few. And I'll just hit the key ones. Uh Wilson hosts a blood drive every three about three months. They have the food bank that feeds the children of central Kansas during the summertime, which is June to August. And those meals go to Hollywood uh Dorance. some of those one schools. I'm I'm I don't don't know all the details, but I think Deanie might. Um so, um the next one, uh Wilson Senior Center sends hot meals, shares information, entertainment, and social interactions for many of these area communities, including sending 30 meals per day every Monday through Friday to Hollywood. Uh we have youth programs that are very active church 4
009scouts. Um and like I said, this is going to hurt not only the Wilson community but these surrounding ones as those volunteers with their generous helping hands possibly have to go somewhere else. Now back to my summary. The education of in this rural area there are the anchors of the families especially the young children but you provide emotional psychological and social support. Local schools provide this critical foundational framework allowing staff to build layer upon layer of cognitive skills. It is important to maintain these tight-knit educational building blocks in the neighborhoods and communities of all sizes. They produce strong productive citizens. they have in the past and they can in the future. Thank you, Superintendent Murphy, for choosing to work in this district. You in your first assignment as a superintendent, you've been engaged and invested.
010You've tried to build community connections and you've searched for alternative solutions. Your work is much appreciated. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> May I say something? One more thing. How will this building be used should there not be a school here? >> I have other questions, but I don't know if you want to give me the time to to present them or can I >> You have two more minutes. >> Two more minutes. Okay. Um, well, I would say families have chosen other school options instead of 112. Most districts around here are scrambling to recruit students. Oddly, this district doesn't seem to be concerned with the significant number loss. I have three questions. Approximately 90 students left in 2023. 20 more exited between 23 and now in the his if history repeats itself, about 56
011more will leave this summer. A few foster children must stay in district due to legal limit limitations. Question one, how much money for students has this district received without any expenses? Question two, what has that money been used for? Question three, will Dorance and Wilson students who remain in this district for 2627 be picked up the same doortodoor like the southern students during this year of land transfer negotiations? And um I was hoping for to see a facility walkthrough tonight. I was hoping it would be on the agenda. Are you still planning to do a walkthrough? I have concerns about some projects and the solutions that are in place. I hope you will do a walkthrough sometime soon, if not tonight. It matters. Item number eight, the administrative reports. >> Okay, so we uploaded administrative
012reports. Our principles are um in their buildings right now helping with um parent teacher conferences. So I put those on there. I'm going to give you guys a few minutes to look through those if you'd like to. Uh, Central Plains Elementary School is the top one, so I'll give you guys a second to look through that one. And then Wilson Elementary Schools after that. Give you guys a chance to look through that one. And then the high school middle school one is after that. Now item number nine, the box modular groundwork bids. >> Okay, so number nine and number 10 do go together with open enrollment numbers for next year and then also number nine are box modular groundwork bids. Um, so I'm going to go through these uh kind of in detail a little
013bit. There are a couple of them that we will need recommended motions to move forward with. We are still on our timeline of having launched or brought in for more space uh towards the end of June. Um just this week enrollment numbers did increase in Hollywood at the elementary school by five students. So um that'll kind of be going into our open enrollment numbers and also the need for space. Just remember that our second grade class and our sixth grade class at Holly River right now is not split. They're all in one big group and I think it puts our sixth grade class down there at 26 or 27 sixth graders in one room. So, um I taught sixth grade for about 15 years and I had 17 sixth graders and 17 sixth graders in
014one room was a lot. So, I can't I can't fathom mid20s. So, so I'm going to take a little bit of time to go through these. So, the first one is the concrete bids. Um so, this is for the concrete foundation supply and labor. So, we did get two bids in return back. Uh, one was from Christensen Construction in the amount of $64,000 and then Sharky Construction for $112,867. So, when I go through these first two Kansas bid laws, does that bid law does require the board of education to go with the lowest bid if it's over $20,000. So, just keep that in mind as we go through here. Um, so we will need a motion on that. So, I'll go back to that one once I go through the the other few here. So,
015we do have our electrical bid. We did get a bid from Kerr Electric um for up to all electrical and new transformer for $43,972. Their base cost is $395, but um there's some unknowns with that. So, they kind of cushioned in a few about $4,000 on that. So, Hammickey Electric also sent in a bid for that project and they came in at $36,74561. So those two items for the box modular unit are over $20,000. So Kansas bid law does require us to go with the smallest one. >> Does that line I know with some cities they have like a 5% cushion or whatever if it's a local company. Does that >> not if it's over $20,000? No. We call KSB to ask to make sure we had that for sure today. So yeah, uh there
016is a 1% but it's on goods. If you're buying goods, there's a 1%. You can go with somebody a little more local if you wanted to. So, so going down through here, uh, the gas, Kur Electric did have the gas bid that came in at $8,996. Uh, Kansas Gas is going to also have to extend the meter. That's going to be about $2,500. That one's not over our threshold. And I skipped one, so I'm going to go back up. So, our dirt work um from Abe Prosert was $12,750. that does include some of the drainage as well. Um, and that one's underneath the threshold to that $20,000 mark, too. So, sewer from Ker, uh, the sewer hookup for Kerr Electric was $6,842. Uh, water from Ker Electric was $6,382 as well. And then we also
017have the drainage that Abe Proer put in a bid on for $6,500. And then if you remember right, we talked about the playground drainage where we poured the new concrete foundation in the building. There's still that little goalie there that's holding water. Abe shot us a bid for 12,300 to get that water out of there and divert it away from the school. So we budgeted for all the groundwork to be $300,000 for this project. Uh the total that we have on here on the low end comes in at $157,270.84, 82 which puts our remaining budget for ground work a little over 140,000 that we will still need to work on fire alarm panels security some technology and furnishing as well. So that's where the bids lined out at for the box modular unit for more
018classroom space at Central Plains Elementary School. Uh the two items that we will need motions on um are the concrete and then also the electric. These were all going to be paid out of pocket, right? What were your cash flow this? >> Yeah, this is out of our capital outlay that we budgeted in whenever the board approved this back in the fall or late summer. So, when we went through that budget, that's what we budgeted $300,000 when we budgeted this year's budget. So, that's um all capital outlay expenses to create more space. So, we don't have to make a motion on the ones that they're on. >> No, you do not. The ones you have to make a motion on are going to be the concrete cuz it's over $20,000 and also the electrical that's
019over $20,000. >> They they don't need to approve those. Those If you want me to get other bids for those, I could, but because they're underneath that threshold, you wouldn't. If you would like to make a motion to go with that one because that's the only one, you can do that as well. So, you have some options on those. Uh but on the concrete and electrical, you definitely have to make a motion on which one we want to go with. And again, pretty well handcuffed on those because we have to go with the lowest bid. So, uh you can always have them sent back to me and I can put bids out again. We can have another meeting after spring break to try to get those secured. Um but I can't guarantee you that we're
020going to have any more bids than what we already have. two specific >> I think we better do what I >> can do that >> I would make a motion to approve Scott Christian's construction in the amount of $64,000 for the concrete work >> I'll second >> motion by Allison and a second by Josh. >> All those in favor say I. >> Any opposed? same side. Motion passes 6. And then I would move to approve Hammock Electric and the amount of Should I make sure I got >> 36 74561. >> Second. >> Motion by Allison and second by Josh. All those in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? Same sign. Motion passes. Is it okay to lump them or do you want >> them? You could say um I make a motion to approve.
021>> Okay. Okay. I move to approve the remaining bids as presented for the dirt work gas sewer water drainage. >> That's perfect. I'll >> second. I have a >> motion by Allison and second by Josh. All those in favor say I. I. Any >> oppose? Same sign. Motion passes 6. >> Item number 10 are open enrollment numbers for 26 27. >> Okay. So, I included those in your board documents. So, I'll spend a little time going through those and I'll go through the elementary school first. Uh, so at Central Plains Elementary School, we did set the total enrollment at 36. So next year we're projecting having 26 kindergarteners, 21 first graders, 30 second graders, uh 21 third graders, 26 fourth graders, 29 fifth graders, and right now 34 sixth graders. So those are our projections.
022So our open seats will be the difference between those numbers and the 36 number that we set. And again, we are moving to where we have two teachers in every classroom and splitting those classrooms as well. So, um I did anticipate um even though um I I I've had some parents that do send their kids to Wilson say that they did want to get them on a bus and transport them to Hollywood. So, I did try to include some of those numbers. The two items that I want you to be aware of is second grade and sixth grade. Okay? If all of the Wilson kids in those two classes for next year did come, then we might have to talk about splitting it three ways. But we do have room with the new modular unit
023to do that if you needed to. So, um, just wanted to make sure you guys were aware of that. So, right now with our projected numbers, those are not included in there, but that does give us 65 open seats throughout the building for next year. If it was filled to capacity, it'd be 252. The next document you'll see below that, um, 2526, we're at 185. That number is actually going to be bumped up to 190 after spring break's over with, which is going to put our projection for next year uh for 2627 at about 192 students kindergarten through 6th grade. So, um once that fifth grade class moves to 7th grade, do have a little bit of a drop off, but it's still going to be in about that 184 group. So, those will be
024our open enrollment numbers per the law that we have to set for our open seats. And then the L the high school um projected numbers as of 131 in 7th grade we have 24 students 28 students in 8th grade 24 and 9th 27 27 students in 10th grade 31 in 11th and then 24 in 12th grade projected for next year that comes out to 158 students. So did set those total enrollment numbers to 32, which does give us the open seat equivalency of about 34 students. If you do look down at the bottom for our projections for the next couple years, 2526, we're at 152. Projection from next year is to be at 157. Once that fifth grade class gets into high school, that pushes our our high school middle school number up to 167.
025So again, that doesn't count the students that we may or may not get or we, you know, could lose kids from one year to another as well. So with open enrollment numbers, but those are our projections and our open seats. Again, per Kansas state statute law, we do have to post these with board approval for the open seats. So if somebody wants to apply for open enrollment, they can apply. But just so you guys are aware of open enrollment, that that does not consist consist of district students. That's if they are out of district and they wish to come to one of our buildings next year and we have a room for them. We would have to accept them unless there's some discipline problems or something like that. If they are an in district student,
026we have to take them regardless of where we're at. If we're at zero and they're an in district student, we have to take them. So, um, this has to be posted on our websites once it's board approved and also on our Facebook page as well. We'll put it out there. So, we always get a little confusion with parents because at this time they think, well, enrollment's open for next year. Well, it's not for district students. It's for out of district students that wish to come. So, >> anyone have any questions? >> Teacher wise, you said we have 16 in high school, middle school. >> Yes. Are we looking at that? >> Not at this time. We're not. >> We'll have some spots that we have to fill moving forward as well. So, um, we anticipate
027staying at the same numbers. >> I move to approve the open enrollment numbers for 2026 2027 as presented. >> Second. >> Motion by Allison and second by Josh. All those in favor say I. I. >> Any opposed? Same sign. Motion passes 6. >> Item number 11 are recreation board appointments. >> Okay. So, this recreation board appointment is just for the recreation department in Claplin because they Claplin's in Barton County. So, part of their funding comes through our budget is the best way to explain it. So, um, a couple of these you have already appointed in the past, but we just want to make sure we have a board motion that has the term month and date on it for the rec board. So, um, we want to make sure our our motions match what the
028wreck has. So, Derek Hollingsshed is appointed through July of 2020. So, we want our board motion to match that. And then also Drew Kerr is appointed through July of 2029. So we want to just make sure our board motion matches that approval as well. So I would recommend approval of those two. Our board motions match our recreation department at plat as our clin board member through July of 2030. >> Second motion by Allison and a second by Josh. Are there any other questions or anything regarding this? Okay, hearing none. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Any oppose? Same sign. Motion passes six. I move to approve your ter. >> Motion by Allison and second by Josh. All those in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? Same sign. Motion passes. 6. Item
029number 12, the football practice field water field. >> Okay, so we do have the board approved sprinkler system installed at the hel practice field for the football team. We do have the old water rail that's still working in some capacity. The golf course is interested in that water rail. Um, I would recommend us having a discussion on donating that water rail to the golf course or if you guys know if there's another entity that we want to reach out to. uh right now it's just going to sit over to the side and we know at this point. So um just want to kind of open that discussion because they are interested in that water and I don't know what it's I don't have a clue what it's worth guys. It's been there for a while.
030We've had to repair it quite a few times the past few years. Josh, you said that came from Bush. Is there an entity over there that would want that? No. >> I think it would be good. I'll move to approve the donation. >> Second the motion by Dalton and a second by Allison. I Yeah, I would just say is since we're not going to use it and I don't want it to just deteriorate because then somebody can use it. Any other questions or comments? Hearing none. All those in favor say I. Any oppose? Same sign. Motion passes 6. Item number 13, the Lakeside Learning Virtual School. >> Okay, so with the board motion to move forward um closing the Wilson Elementary School, we do need to have a conversation about the Lakeside Learning Virtual School,
031we did talk about this just a little bit last year on whether we thought that it would be um easier to run that out of a high school and middle school setting. So, with this building being closed next year, you know, we need to discuss the pros and the cons of moving it. Um, you know, we do have a pretty good setup here, but there's not going to be, you know, as of right now with the board motion, there's not going to be anybody here except the virtual side of it. You know, on the other side of it, if it is at the high school, middle school, um, right now, our high school students that are taking egeneuity classes, they go to teachers in the library during that time. So if we actually had a
032setup for the virtual to be at the high school middle school, those students could actually go to that parah or whoever's in that room to actually do their egeneuity classes and not be in the same room as a teacher that's trying to teach. So that's kind of one side of it. You know, the diploma side of it and the way that the transcripts run through us as a district um have to be signed by myself, the high school principal. Um, usually the counselors are the ones that kind of look at those transcripts. Um, we don't have a high school middle school counselor, so we kind of have a protocol here where it runs through me and kind of goes that direction as well. So, we just need to kind of have a discussion on what
033that looks like for next year. Um, you know, there's a lot of a lot of credit that that it it would run smoother at a high school, middle school, but ultimately that's your guys's decision on what that looks like for next year. forward moving to become more efficient. Makes sense. Move it down. Motion by Dolphin. >> And a second by Josh. Is there any other questions, comments, discussion? >> Hearing none. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Any opposed? Same sign. Motion passes. 6. Item number 14, the Wilson daycare. >> Okay. Okay. So, I want to spend a little bit of time talking about the Wilson daycare as well. Um, moving into the summer, you know, we could have anywhere from one full-time kid to three full-time kids here at the daycare. Um,
034you know, whenever you're talking about finances, that doesn't really add up. I have had some interest from community members asking what the protocol would be to try to transition that daycare over to where it was maybe more community ran instead of school. I don't know what that looks like at our point, whether that would be it still ran here at the school or whether they'd be looking at other other options on where it would be ran. Um, we really haven't got very far into that conversation and what that looks like for next year. Um, you know, on a school side, it's awful hard to run a daycare when there's one, two, or three kids there all summer long. So, that makes it tough on that side of it as well. So, we need to kind
035of have that conversation. Um, this could be something that's tabled till next month. If you want some more information from the community, um, I can reach out to a couple people and see where they're at on um, making that happen or what that would even look like going into the summer. If you guys wanted to make a motion for the daycare to be closed at the end of this year school year, you can do that, too. Um, I just need some direction from you guys on what you would like me to do as far as the daycare. >> I do want to address the fact I know there is a lot of questions regarding I mean like the daycare center like what's going to happen to the building, you know, all those type of questions.
036Some of this we do have to continue planning as we go, but we also have to wait the 45day waiting period, you know, to ensure all the due process before we really go into the next steps of, you know, can the community buy the building? Can or what's going to happen to the building? Those type of things. So, it's not that we're not addressing it. We're not thinking about it, but we do have kind of our due process, but we do still have to make plans moving forward. And like like I said, one or two kids in the daycare isn't anything that we we can sustain as a school. I don't know if you know a different motion if you want to add the wording. I moved that Wilson daycare ran by USD 1112 just
037just for that clarification that there may be something else if the community takes it over removes it but as far as the daycare run by the school district you know that's what we're preding the future of >> I think just table next get some more information from >> you that I couldn't hear. >> But you would keep that. >> He wants to table it until next month to see what we can get more information from the community and and stuff like that. >> Thank you. and maybe even see what the schools available to do in the community run through still through the building. Uh is them daycarees have outside >> and they got a bathroom in between building >> that transition to community run at some point someone else has to hold the license. >>
038Yes. Right. you know, and I build deal building dealing with enough daycare to know I mean it would make it easier if it was to stay in the same building just because things are already set up for it. There would be just a lot of logistics on what that would look like. I don't I don't have a lot of those worked out right now, guys. So, I can I can definitely find some more information and >> do some more >> investigation work and bring that to the April board meeting for you guys. Is there any other discussion or is there a consensus to table that until next month? >> Item number 15. >> Mr. Mr. President, I move that the board go into executive session pursuit to the Kansas Open Meeting Act and that discuss
039non-elected personnel were topics of certified staff, classified staff, resignations, and supplemental staff to protect the privacy and the individuals to be discussed with M. Mr. Murphy present and return to open session in this room at still 20. >> Yes, please. >> 7:00 >> 7 o'clock. Second motion by Josh, second by Allison. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Any oppose? Same sign. We are back in open session. >> I move to approve the resignation of Cara Potter as third grade teacher at Central Elementary School Holler effective at the end of the 2025 2026 school year. >> There's a motion by Allison and a second by Josh.

Yeah, it's blue. >> So, item number 17, superintendent report. >> Okay, so a couple of items that I wanted to fill you guys in on. There's actually a few here. Uh, number one, daycare wise, um, we did put in for the Patterson grant. We did not even make it to the second step this year. Um, so we are going to be looking at all cost savings for daycarees moving into
044this summer and next year. Uh, what we're going to be communicating with the families to expect to pay for food because that was one thing that the grant did was it pay for our lunches and breakfast food for our kiddos in the daycare. Uh we are going to be looking down at higher weekly rates for our kids uh in the daycare as well. We are going to have to pay to hold spots in the summertime for our teachers too moving into the summer and then we're going to look back to try to cut back staff hours where we can at the daycare just to make it run a little more feasible. So those are items that we're having discussions on and we will be communicating with families um in the district probably right after right
045before spring break or right after we come back from spring break. Uh, I wanted to give you a little bit of legislative session update as well. Um, it it looks like the student personal devices is going to go through. Uh, there's been a lot of language changes back and forth, but it it looks like we're going to have to have plans in place to secure, store, and manage cell phones and also uh smartwatches going into next year. Um, we're also going to have to have some sort of a discipline policy in for breaking that as well. So, we're working on that and what that's going to look like. There's been some language changes thrown back and forth on that, but I mean it's going to be really difficult start starting out if we have to
046do this with, you know, kids can't have their watch their personal watches on in school, you know, during school hours. They can't have their cell phones on them in school hours. They're going to have to be managed and stored and secured by a school employee if they bring them into school. So, somebody's going to have to manage that. And they're also going to have to manage when they leave, how it's going to look, if they leave early, how it's going to look. I mean, there's a lot of moving parts whenever you're talking about what that looks like. So, uh, something we're having some discussions with if that does come to fruition, like it looks like it's going to, um, we're trying to make sure we have a plan in place and that'll be reflected in
047our handbook once we start into our handbooks this summer. >> So, we do already have with some guarant. >> Yeah. Just not as stringent as what these are. >> Yes. Yeah. So KSD audit went well. Um we still have the possibility that we could republish the virtual budget. So just to explain that a little bit more when we do the budget on the adult side, we have to put in how many credits we anticipate for the next year. Um West Sharing Credits, we went down from 3,200 credits to 3,000 credits this year. So we are right right on the borderline of having to republish that budget. So it's not republishing the whole budget. If we stay at the 3,000 credits, the best way to explain it is if we go over that, we're only going
048to get what we put down in the budget. You would rather over estimate than underestimate on the virtual site. So, there could be the chance that we do have to um republish that. We talked to Frank Harwood at KSD earlier this week. Was it that was that this week? It was this week. >> This week on what that would look like moving forward so we kind of have a plan in place once we get our March credits from Graduation Alliance. So, we did have a land request uh to the road to the west of the football field. Um it could be in the best interest of the district to talk about keeping that land on that that road um and leasing it to uh the young man that bought the property. down the line at
049some point if we do make some enhancements to that practice football field with um uh long jump pits, triple jump pits, polevolt pits, that's going to be the easiest e access in there for cement trucks and things like that rather than having to take them across the practice field. So, um you know, kind of thinking about that. It might be in our best interest to just try to lease that to him for use on a year. Like not trying to make any money off of it, but he can have, you know, lease it and do whatever he wants with it. Then once we have things done on the football field, then we can go back to having a conversation and we want to look at selling that, then we can look at selling that. >>
050We sell it to him, but keep an ement >> so we have access. >> I don't know the answer to that. We could talk about selling it to him, but also putting a stipulation in there of >> keep there's not a lot of there's not a lot of easement there. I mean, it's right up against the trees if you looked at it. So, I can check into that. Dton, I don't I don't know the answer if we can sell it to him, but keep an ement or not. um the answer to. So, um did talk to the city and the county a little bit about what that would look like surveying wise. We'd have to survey that area to figure out what that road was worth if we wanted to sell it. So, um and
051then the other item I wanted to visit with you guys about is our library here at Wilson. Um we got all of the drainage hopefully fixed and we got the foundation hopefully back to where it's in good shape. We have not put back any drywall, anything else like that in that in that library area. Um, but we still have the roof issue. I would I would still like to go ahead and and there was one bid that we had that would come in and and fix a couple patches on that roof and try to seal things up on that roof and it was about $7,200, I think, $7,500. You know, as of right now, moving forward, we're going to own that building moving forward and we need to try to button the library up the
052best we can. doesn't mean we have to go back and spend a lot of money putting drywall and all that stuff back at this time, but I think it might be in our best interest um to go ahead and have that company come in and try to button that roof up to the best of our ability, not spending, you know, one of those quotes was $30,000 and another one was was six figures. So, not going into that, but I think we need to come in and have them weather seal those areas, weather seal around the top of it just to make sure that it's buttoned up to the best of our ability without um you know, spending six figures on something that we might not be using in the future. So, are you guys okay
053with me moving that direction on that? >> Yeah. Okay. Um and those are the items that I have on my superintendence report. um just from discussions I had on like our legislative listening tour last year with some schools that had um banned cell phones and stuff prior to now being mandated to do so. Um, some of them want like some of the steps they took to try to curb any parent backlash or anything like that was to make sure that they could still be communicated with like on their school email or something like that as a way cuz you know that's one thing a lot of parents say they want to still be able to get in touch with their kids. So that was one way they kind of got around that or not they
054got around but informed parents they could still communicate in some ways. just to share that. Item number 18, open agenda items. Item number 19, board member reports. Okay. Items for next month's agenda. So, we'll have personnel on there also with our classified uh list and also our supplemental list for next year. We'll also have some information about summer school as well. Um supplementals. We also have a meeting scheduled to go over our technology rotation and what that looks like and then we'll have uh drivers at teacher approval on next month's agenda item as well. Agenda items. send volunteer wants me to grab the teacher. >> All right. I would entertain a motion to adjurnn. >> Motion by Allison. >> Second by Josh. All those in favor say I. Any oppose? Same sign. Motion passes. 6.
