Uh Susan's taking the roll call. We have all members in attendance this evening. Uh no one's joining us on phone or video. We had an executive session from 5:30 until
0026:18ish. Appreciate everybody's patience. We're waiting outside. Sorry that we were so delayed. Uh do we have anyone signed up for public comments? >> We do not. >> Okay. No public comments this evening. >> This was a previously unscheduled meeting, but we needed to get some business done, especially hiring. So, um we're going to move through the uh the agenda sort of quickly. Um first on the agenda, we have uh unfinished business uh approval of the student handbooks. Um would we'd like to call on anyone for this? Dr. Ken, >> um principles, um is there anything we want to highlight changes in there from last time? >> I fixed all the changes, Dee. I think you got that. >> Yeah, I did. I got that. Thank you. Thank you. That was quick. >> Same thing for
003me. I just went in and mimic the elementary school and put in the contact information for people with phone numbers and extensions. I did get that. That's awesome. I still have a question about the iPad um handbook for the elementary school, which I'm sorry, I didn't realize it. Maybe I should have sent it to Mike, but um page one uh what is it? The third paragraph, it does have in here um that to help achieve these goals, students in grades K through six will be issued an iPad that will travel with them throughout the school day and may be also taken home after regular school hours. And that's, you know, that's in this in in this. And the reason why we got rid of FID days is because we weren't allowing our elementary school kids
004to take home their iPads. So, does this need to be changed to state that they're not going to be able to take it home? >> I mean, I would say yes. Mike, would you agree? >> If that's what you want. Yeah. I mean, we can change it from a maybe to they're not allowed. Is is that going to go for this year as well that they're not going to be allowed to take home their iPads? >> I mean, I wasn't planning on having anyone. Can you tell me you guys take home iPads in fourth grade? >> Oh, yeah. There's like we let kids take them home only on like very special circumstances like if the kids go on vacation or has a lot of work to make up, but I mean that's just a rare
005rare occasion. >> Was the language maybe? Now it says and also and may also be taken home after regular school hours >> like that. It's not an absolute >> situation like this. >> I'm just saying if if the parent says, "Well, I want my kid to bring their iPad home." Are they going to be able to bring their iPad home? >> I I would say no. You'd have to ask Mr. Bill that question. Um I I don't know. >> Okay. >> If they go on vacation, I would probably say sure. be, you know, under special conditions or the approval of the principal or something allows for some options. >> Yeah. With approval with the principal, I think clarifies that. Well, >> yes. >> Okay. I just wanted to make sure because, you know, we got
006rid of the FID days because >> the kids weren't getting the >> in part, >> you know, in part. I think there was many reasons. Yeah. >> Yeah. So >> why can't the elementary kids take I mean they did take them home at one point and then >> was there a lot of >> show under previous administration. I don't know why >> I imagine that turning out somewhat disastrous. >> Yeah there's a lot of issues with stuff like bringing them back >> to school when they needed to have them for class. They weren't there and >> right >> stuff getting like chargers getting lost and taking the chargers home. And right now they're set up this cart. They're all in carts right now. And so basically, you'd have to almost probably buy an extra charger
007for every machine so you're not tearing apart the carts to get the chargers out for the kids to take them home. >> Yeah. >> You don't have that issue at the high school, though. >> No, because they're all just assigned an individual. >> They're older. They're more supposed to be more responsible charged and ready to go. But that doesn't always happen. >> I just I remember our kids were bringing at the elementary school were bringing them home for a while there and then >> last year last two years. >> I think it's been the last two or three. Yeah. If >> you could clarify that with that verbiage with permission of the principal or something like that. >> Okay. >> That still gives the option for them to send it home and makes it def
008makes it more defined for the reader. >> Okay. But like if fourth grade wants to send it home for a special project, are they going to have to go down and get Mr. Gil to approve Mr. Donald's class to take them all home as opposed to this that says they may be able to take them home which would be Mr. Donald says I'm sending them home with my class. >> Yeah. Why is that >> may means it it may gives gives them enough control. I don't know. I mean that's regular school hours. >> I think it's okay. Could be. Yes. Could be enough. >> I just it just kind of it just kind of stood out at me because >> it's up to the school administration and the teachers letting them take them home >>
009and a lot of parents didn't want them bringing them up. >> I will say Dee, you were eager inaccuracies for these and thanks for finding those and then thanks for the administration for fixing them. Um >> yeah, thanks for getting that done very quickly. I appreciate that. >> Yep. Good. So, um, any other questions on either the elementary, uh, the iPad, e Academy, or the high school handbooks? >> So, are we changing or leaving as it is? >> We're going to leave it as >> it is. Leave it as is. >> Okay. So, um, if I could ask for a motion to approve um the the approval of the student handbooks, that would be A, 1, A, B, and C, and high schools B 1 A and B. Motion >> second. >> Cindy and Bob.

Um we did a retest of both um central office and the elementary building and in both cases the test results came back um stellar um in u excellent condition.

Any questions for Susan on either of those bills? Hearing none. Could I ask for a motion to approve the payment? >> So moved. >> Second. >> Jess and Trevor. All those I'm sorry question. I didn't turn my page quick enough. what needs to be completed or inspected or >> in you want me to address that? Okay. Um, so they had 100% of the concrete on there that they wanted paid for. It hadn't all been poured yet, nor had it been inspected yet. Um, and they had I had a spreadsheet there. They had a couple of the things that they had
016down were 100% completed. Um, talking with Carmen and Dr. Kramer, we decided that we wanted to wait and hold off payment until the inspectors got in, made sure that the angles and the, you know, handrails and all those things were correct before we released all the payments. So that was why we made a decision on how much what percentage we thought was truly completed. >> Sounds good. I just was curious >> instead of holding it all back. We understand that, you know, obviously they have bills to pay too. So we wanted to be fair and release some of the money. >> Okay. Thank you. >> You're welcome. So, it sounds like there are some deficiencies or things that you may be working with them to address. I know we went up there today. One of
017the things we observed was uh where the swing sets are in front of the tennis courts. The the the concrete sort of ends before that um rubber material picks up into the swing sets. Like there's like a a 1 ft gap of grass there. I don't know why for accessibility they didn't when I looked at the design it's on there that it's supposed to be up close. So I don't know if that's something you can just >> I think that was the one where they had to get some more material brought in >> cuz they were a little bit short place I saw that was like >> yeah there weren't deficiencies. It's just that they were asking for 100% of things that weren't completed 100% yet. So >> but I I do believe they had
018mentioned that they were short some of that rubber and I think they had some more coming in but we'll check. It does look really good though. >> It is beautiful. >> Can we maybe the board get a follow-up email on that? Just making sure that was that somebody knows about that. >> Yep. >> Thanks, Chad. >> Any other questions on payment of those bills? >> Uh Jessica and Trevor, we had a motion and a second. Uh all those in favor? >> I. >> Any opposed? That motion carries. Are there any new business items for this evening? >> I had one um handout that I gave you. It's the uh contract for news story. This was on last month's um agenda, but it didn't appear that it was linked on there. So, this is the standard
019thing that we've used uh for our children or special needs. So, I just included that again. It requires no vote. Nothing changed. Just >> want to make sure. >> So, that'sformational only. >> Yes, >> we have. So, the new story contracts in front of us if we'd like to review it, but we already accepted that, right? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Anything else? New business orformational? Ask for a motion to adjurnn. >> Palm >> second. >> Bey. All those in favor? >> Any opposed? Motion carries. Thank you. Two weeks. Thank
