I know you've seen the resolution, but they're >> resolution, but they're >> putting a transmission line through the southern part of the southern part of the city. And there's a couple routes that they have suggested.
017I see it in the map. And those routes, as Dan mentioned, Dan mentioned could have some adverse impact or they would have adverse impact to some planned neighborhoods around our school, not just in our district, but ISD as well. D as well. >> And one thing I want to be very clear on is clear on is on behalf of the city and this recommendation. We're certainly not against the idea of bringing power and transmission line to Temple that's needed with business growth and everything else. But the city has proposed some alternative routes that would uh accomplish the same outcome but not have adverse impact for planned neighborhoods and neighborhoods and and even our school side. So um so in conversation with superintendent academy and city manager we felt like that this felt like that this
018would be even stronger if we did this together. together. This resolution does not resolution does not have the signatory lines on it right now for us to sign. Uh but it will we're just approving the resolution and concept. We can handle the signatures afterwards or recommending you the um resolution, but this is just a good thing all the way around.

First of all, we've been in contact with his daughter Kimmy and she was aware that we are taking the recommendation forward this evening and we'll not
022we'll notify her tomorrow of the board's decision's decision and then we will coordinate with Steve Apprenice a time to a time to you know kind of have a kind of ceremonial event maybe before one of the games at Lamar for the family >> and then we'll also we'll also Order the order the scoreboard score I guess placard if you will that would go up on the scoreboard naming the field. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> All right. Thank you Dr. Hot. All right. Thank you. >> Members have any further questions? Other questions? >> Okay. Item C is the advocacy timeline. >> Members I think at your place you should see that the document that says TISD board and superintendent advocacy timeline. This is comes about through our process with Raise Your Hand Texas and this
023sort of just memorializes what we've done in the past and just want to make it part of what we're moving forward in the future. And so basically this fall of is you know legislator accountability after the session and you can see over to the right the different uh task that we can do >> in April of next year in 2026 that's identify the power pockets and key stakeholders which is something we've we've all done this before but this is sets up a new time timeline for us and in June 26 2026 through October 2026 we'll host a listing circles so I know Those were very successful last time. I suspect we'll probably have even more this time as different groups have come to our attention and we have the ability to gather more input from
024different uh segments of our community. >> And then in November 2026, we'll create our legislative priority agenda. That's what we did last fall last late summer fall. >> And then in December 2026, uh align the legislative parties. And I'll just mention that this is when we have our board lunches with the state senator and the two representatives who represent this area to go over our priorities with them before the session begins. >> And then in January 27 inform all stakeholders or legislative agenda we have at that point and we make it public uh with you know not only the elected officials in Austin but with our community make and association make sure everybody knows about it. And then again through February 2027 monitor start at the bill tracking system monitor bills and we'll do that
025February through May 2027. And then we'll have the advocacy plan and what we did before we'll meet with the representatives during this time and have you know capital visits again. I suspect we'll be even a little more robust this time since last time was our first effort at that and by all accounts is I believe very successful. I think that's what everybody believes and I think we'll continue to do that. So I appreciate being part of Raise Your Hand Texas to sort of get this set for us and this is something we want to memorialize for ourselves and the future boards going forward and this document also too is up on our website so we can see it and anybody in the public can see this document. >> Are there any questions? >> Okay. Okay.
026>> Next item future items discussion. Anything you wish to discuss at a future board meeting at a future board meeting? >> Okay. >> Item E is important dates. Dates Dr. >> And just uh just echo Mr. Posy's comments. I want to thank the board for their participation the last >> I guess year and a half in the year and a half in the raise your hand Texas program. I know it was a time commitment, but I think now we have a tangible blueprint. No matter who's elected, no matter who's sitting in my chair, there's a a conditioned a conditioned expectation on how to advocate and engage in that process from the team of eight. So, I think that's a very powerful thing moving forward and I think advocacies I think advocacies continue to become increasingly
027important for public education moving forward. important dates. Um I don't have many. I don't have many. This is the this is the month of retreats. Month of retreats. This is where administrators and everybody else kind of circling the wagons around documents data from the end of the year formalizing plans. So you'll see a host of retreats that we have starting with this starting Wednesday with our retreat and then we have our administrative leadership administrative leadership retreat next week. That's actually at the Holtz Center. I think we have around 70 around 70 participants in that. Is that right? Around 70 and then we have an assistant retreat as well. I do want to draw your attention want to draw your attention to the next parent meeting that we have around uh around uh the future I
028guess election askings asking and this is an opportunity July 24th July 24th. 6 p.m. high school auditorium. High school auditory me to present a finalized plan to our parents who have guided us in guiding us putting together this plan. Not just parents but not just business leaders have been involved in the crafting of it. spiritual leaders so forth but uh we started with the parents we want to start the finaliz you have a copy of that I think there's one little tweak from the hard copy you have in front of you changes a lot and that is nobody's fault but my own um but um but it will be finalized and hopefully moving forward depending on what the final values come in in July may change some of our financial figures financial figures. So that'll
029be July 24th and we'll have some breakout sessions for parents to ask questions and then we have the committee the 30th 31st. I want to encourage I want to encourage every one of you to show up to the board facilities committee meeting if you can. >> I know that some of you are not on some of you facilities committ but but it is an opportunity for us to the tour facilities. It may be the only opportunity before school starts. And so you'll have a peak under the hood of what teachers and students are going to have the chance to experience after the construction has been wrapped up for this summer. Some of the stuff will still be a little bit in progress as you can imagine, but it'll be enough for you to attach your
030imagination to it. Put it together. And then after that, we have district professional development.

Thank you very much for letting me speak tonight. Um we're going to do a brief update on the state of the fine arts at Temple ISD. And we're going to start out with our biggest celebration which is our best in communities for music education. This is awarded by the National Association of Music Merchants or NAM. This is a national award and it recognizes the work of our music programs K through 12 and what that does for the community of Temple. And so this is a wonderful award that we received back in May. We're very excited to celebrate that. >> And then on Monday, we just found out that
034we had also been named the district of distinction by the Texas Association of Art Educators. And there were 109 schools out of the state of Texas that received this district of distinction for our visual arts program. So, we're very very excited about these two awards and the work that our teachers and students have done and deserve the recognition. So, we wanted to start off we wanted to start off >> and I want to congratulate you. Congratulate you all of our teachers and students. You know, that's less than 10% of the school districts in the state of Texas receiving that award. And uh everybody here knows fine arts is really lifeblood of Temple. We wouldn't we wouldn't have an elementary fine arts academy if it wasn't if it wasn't. But we we are really grateful for
035what our fine arts teachers are doing and your leadership and everybody else. This is fantastic. Really is really is. >> And this just recognizes the hard work that our teachers and students were doing. I'm very very grateful. Um Shirley Bugwin was our finance coordinator was instrumental in actually making this happen and filling out the numerous pages and documents and paperwork and submitting artwork and all of the things that had to happen to do this that I just could not manage on my own. And so she's been instrumental in making these awards happen. and we're still waiting on the theater one. So, we should find out about the theater award later this fall. So, >> um >> we're going to kind of go through our mission and vision very quickly, some of our program accomplishments. Um
036we did a fine arts evaluation that we did over a three-year period, some of the participation numbers in our programs, and then I have a little alumni spotlight to kind of wrap this up. So when we look at our mission and vision, our mission basically we say to educate, challenge and inspire our students through diverse opportunities across the fine arts, enabling them to reach their artistic, creative and expressive potential. And that really is what we're after is to give them the opportunity to meet the potential that they have that they bring in the classroom. Our vision as they leave is prepare them to lead them to create and contribute meaningfully through the arts. >> Shaping communities, >> influencing culture, influencing culture and driving innovation >> and driving innovation. >> And we narrowed this all down
037to a model of igniting potential through artistic through artistic. >> So those are our driving forces of our department. >> So some of our program highlights elementary music's coming up first coming up first. >> I skipped a page. I knew I was going to do that. I knew I was going to do that. >> So, elementary music, every campus teaches 100% of the students for elementary music and visual arts and at Samson Howard Theater. So, our elementary music program, we had everybody do at least six performances during the year as well as our honor choirs. The Samson Howard Orchestra premiered this year, grades three through five. And we had 33% of the grade level enrolled. We had so many in grades three and four, we had to split them into two groups. >> That's unheard
038of, isn't it? >> It's amazing. >> Yeah, that's that's amazing. >> So, we had about we had about between 40 and 45 third graders and about the same for fourth grade and then we had about 25 to or so fifth graders. And so, we could not fit all of the third grade into that room with just that many kids. So, we actually split them into two groups. So, it's been very successful. We're very thrilled with how they've done. So there's a picture up there of their first concert in May. And then the other thing we're working on is Kadai training. And it is pronounced Kadai, not Kadali. >> Um this is like the gold standard of elementary music education. The training is in three levels. Each level is about two very intensive weeks of training
039with lots of homework and performance. And we have been very um grateful to partner with Colleen ISD and they are doing level one training this summer. And we have three of our teachers, elementary teachers who are attending that training as we speak. And they will be level one certified. And we have another teacher who already is level one certified. And we will be able to continue that partnership to get all of our elementary teachers certified. And if they want to go beyond level one and do level two or level three, we'll be able to do that. So, our goal is to have 100% of our elementary music teachers code certified by 2027. >> Elementary theater. See if it'll go. There it goes. This is our premiere. This is our premier. We did not know what
040Elementary Theater was going to look like. It's been an interesting year getting it up and running and it's been very, very successful. They did their first major show, their first hobb, which is the legend of Sleepy Hollow. And they did their musical Willy Wonka in the Chocolate Factory in March, which was very successful. And one of the things that was just amazing is one of our community members working through TEF has created an endowment for the Samson Howard musical in particular that gives them $5,000 a year to put into that musical to get rights for the music, to get costumes, scripts, props, all kinds of stuff. So, we are very very excited about that partnership and that endowment that came from our community. So, that was just absolutely amazing. So, um we were able to
041do a little bit of an upgrade at the Samson Howard stage. So, we now have hanging mics so we can hear the kids and we've added been able to add some additional theatrical lighting so we can do a little bit more with the theatrical lighting on the stage. And that was just finished last week. So we're very excited about that. So that whole area there that's probably the best in central Texas. I mean this area that's area central Texas that is that is something else. >> It it's been it's amazing and I'm very pleased with that. And with us standing up an elementary theater program we had to reach out a lot of places because there are not a lot of elementary theater programs in the state. And so to find someone to help us
042develop that curriculum and how to do shows and all the things um it's been a learning process, but it's been amazing and we're very very proud of that program and what they're doing and I'm looking forward to another amazing year. And no, I don't know what the musical is yet. >> Know what the musical is yet. >> We're not there yet. >> So So um um our visual arts had an amazing year. >> Had an amazing year. We had 21 medals at the base competition, which is the high school art competition. And if you're not familiar with bass, junior bass, and teams, these are the three levels of competition for our art students. Uh it's not just submitting art. Our students have to submit a written piece that goes with it, explaining why they chose
043this medium, why they chose the subject, and what they learned from it. Our middle school and high school students are actually interviewed by judges and they talk to the judges about their artwork. It is not just submit a piece of art. That's why the VA stands for visual arts scholastic event. So it is a scholastic event. We had 21 of our high school students medal. We had 22 of our middle school medal in junior base and four receive platinum medals which is basically the equivalent of qualifying for state. And we missed the teams. Miss teams is our elementary and we have 43 elementary students receive melody medals. Seven of them receive top of teams which is again the top award that elementary art students can get. So our art program is doing amazing things and
044the teams competition is something that's fairly new. We've only been doing it for a few years and it's growing. So we're very very proud of that. Um, we hosted two very successful parent involvement events. Our December holiday make and take and then the big art day that we do in March. We've got great turnout for that and people just come out and make art and have a fun evening. And our art teachers completed over 450 hours of community service and field experience. That is part of what helped us with that district of distinction award. >> So, we're very proud of our art department. >> Our next one is dance. growing, which is amazing. Um, they received grand champions at the Ascension and Dance Lon contest, and one of those was a state contest. So, technically,
045they're state champions. Um, 40% of our kittens, of our dance team had an A for the entire year. 100% of them passed every class in the first semester. They were completely eligible. That was amazing. We're very proud of them. And then our dance staff, Danley and Miss Baker, were selected as feature presenters at the state Texas Dance Educators Conference in January of last year. So they were asked to present to the entire state at their conference. So that was amazing. We're very proud of our dance program and how they're growing and what they're doing and what they're doing >> in theater arts. They advanced to by district this year and we had 28 national finalists at the Thespian conference. And this is acting tech and film. >> And then we had Avery Morris Morris um
046qualified for y'all pros and poetry as a district champion. So our theater students are not only doing competing in one act play, they also compete in the Texas thespians which a lot of them qualify for the national the it's actually international uh competition and then we also compete in UIL poetry and pros and some of the UI academic events as well. So, they've done really well. And yes, I do know what the musical for them is. They're going to be doing Greece >> in October. And Shirley has decided she's going to be the principal. So, >> you'll have to come out. I've already done my acting debut. They got to paint me green and have me mama ogre when we did Shrek. >> So, it's someone else's turn. >> It's someone else's turn. um with
047our band we had 37 students for UIL Texas State Ensemble and 16 of those students meddled at state and our kind of saying is at the region level if you get a one on your solo at region that's the equivalent of three at state so to go on and meddal at the state level is pretty amazing we had multiple superior ratings at the UIL contest evaluations and the highlighters our jazz group was the commended winner of the 2024 national jazz honors project. >> So, they're out doing great things. And if you got to go down to the Parker Jazz Club and hear them perform this last year, that was a really, really cool concert. >> So, if you haven't heard our I don't know how you wouldn't have heard our jazz band perform. They perform
048at everything. They perform at everything. >> So, they are all around. So, >> that was the second year they performed at Park. That is great. That is a great >> learning experience for them to be in the real environment. >> Yeah. To perform in an actual jazz club. And they have a They have a sound engineer who has toured the country. I got to talk to the sound engineer. He was amazing. And to work with professionals like that and it's also a fundraiser for us. The Parker Jazz Club gives us money from that event and it's a nice little check. >> So, it's it's pretty good. We're very proud of that jazz band and what they're doing. I know that Mr. Duran has a couple uh goals big goals coming up that he's shooting for
049at the national level. level. So, >> we'll we'll see how that pans out this year, but they're doing some great stuff. >> They're doing some great stuff. >> Our choir had superior ratings in every ensemble that went to we had 27 students qualify for Texas State Solar Ensemble and they had more than 150 hours of performances and community service. So when you look at what those choirs doing um December, I don't know how they function in December between going down to Galveastston and doing Dickens on the Strand, going to San Antonio and touring and singing on the Riverwalk and all the multiple community performances that they do during the month of December. It's amazing how much singing those students do and they come down and serenate the finance office too. >> So that's a wonderful
050day for us that we get to be serenated by Paul and encore groups. So, it's amazing. Um, and if you've never had a chance to go see Soundcheck in May, you have to go. It's an amazing show that showcases our choir students in a totally different way. It is a rock concert and they do an amazing job. We bring in a live band and they just have a lot of fun up there. And that picture that you see is from this year's sound check. In the orchestra, we had 18 students qualify for Texas State Salon Ensemble. The varsity orchestra receives a sweep stakes, which means they got a one in both their concert and their site reading performances at the UIL evaluation. We mentioned Greg Hernandez was accepted as one of our orchestra students to
051the Berkeley School of Music in Boston. So, that's a pretty prestigious music school. But I also have to kind of brag that both the valadictorian and the saludiatoran of class of 2025 are orchestra students. >> Orchestra students. >> I have to point that out. I have to put that >> some departmental some departments that we are very excited about the best in communities for music education our first year and of course the uh district of distinction for art this was done before we got that award um we received a metagant for $16,000 to purchase two beam mobile projection devices to support technology these are really cool if you've seen where they project on the floor and it's interactive so we can put a piano keyboard on the and the kids can go play with that
052keyboard on the floor. We can put an artist palette and they can mix colors. And so we're very excited to get this grant from Neta and uh that equipment is on its way. And so I don't know, we we're trying to decide how much we get to play with it before we let the teachers have it. >> Um so it's exciting about that. Our senior students that are majoring in arts fields have more than $165,000 in scholarships. That's 13 kids. that received more than $165,000 in scholarships to pursue degrees in the arts. >> So, we're doing some really good things as they excuse me as they come through. So, we're really really proud of our kids. Proud of our kids. >> So, um I'm going to move into our evaluation. So we worked with a
053group called enhance the arts and was founded by Jim Vanzant and the company contracts with master educators >> from all arts disciplines all art to review all aspects. The evaluation tools include teacher surveys, teacher and admin interviews, campus visits, classroom operations, and facility inspections. It's not just what's teach what's going on. They're looking at um schedules. They're looking at budget. They're looking at admin. They're looking at facilities. they're they're looking over all. So in 2022 they completed the evaluation for visual arts. 23 they did all of our music programs and then 24 they did dance and theater and they gave us some recommendations. If you're interested in the full report, each one of those is about that thick. You're more than welcome to my book, but I tried to kind of condense it down to
054some of the big ones. So some of our big recommendations that they had at a fine arts fine arts coordinator >> that that is done >> is done. Thank you. That has been amazing for this department. You're seeing a lot because I now have a partner >> because I have a partner. >> So that has been amazing for us. >> That has been amazing. >> Um dedicated classroom facilities facilities. >> I'm marking that as in progress. >> That is in progress >> by this fall. This fall, all of our programs, with the exception of Dance at Kravis and the Meredith Art Room, will all be in dedicated classrooms. They will not be in portables and they will be in classrooms designed to be fine arts classrooms. So, the art teachers, I've had multiple art, middle,
055elementary teachers in portables and they are going to be in art classrooms. And so we're very very excited and that is something that y'all have made happen through multiple bonds is to as we've renovated these different schools and done this. We're putting our programs into facilities designed for them instead of a portable and making it work. So that it's in progress but it's almost completed. So thank you. >> The Meredith art. We do have art at Meredith and they're in a classroom that's not necessarily an art room. Um they're in the gym. They're in the gym. >> So I think we're working towards moving themwards over >> and we're working on dance right now. So I'm really really excited about this. It's exciting that we've done that. >> Our next recommendation was a curriculum review
056and an update. The curriculum review is completed. We have done that. Uh the update this is ongoing. This is something you do every year and you go through as new resources come on board as uh different teaching strategies come around. We review our curriculum on a regular basis. >> So that is always going to be ongoing but the review was done is completed. We've been doing that the last several years. >> Um staffing guidelines we've been working it's in progress. We've been working with HR to kind of set some staffing guidelines for where do we add a part-time, where do we have a full-time, where do we add an assistant, some things just to kind of make it a little more instead of well, we think we need this just something that's a little bit
057more set. Um, so that's almost complete. >> And then performance facilities with the Temple High School upgrade. And if you've not had a chance to go see all the fun toys in the Temple High School auditorium, come over some time. I'll show you. It's really fun. Um, what we can do now with video and projection, um, we actually just won a twohour professional development from one of the AV companies that's going to come in and work with us on how to incorporate projections into our shows. So, we're planning on doing that with Greece and incorporating projections in what we can do now with that is amazing and it's wonderful. And the sound system is incredible and it's It's been wonderful. So, that space is fabulous. The Meredith space um has LED lighting. We can control
058that. We can do what we need to to run it for live shows. We've got good sound over there. We just did those additions at Samson Howard. Those three performance spaces are amazing. Um what we've put on here is this is a future thing to look at is our middle schools do not have performance space. They have to travel. So when theater's rehearsing, they don't have a place to rehearse that's like a stage. And so we got that worked out. And because middle school is the last one, the transportation gets us a bus and they pick them up at the end of the school day and they'll take them over to Meredith so they can rehearse. That is the the middle school theater stage and they are learning how to run lights over there. They're
059learning how to do sound. We are able to do great things over at Meredith with them. But that's just something down the line of the middle schools don't have at their campus >> that space. But again, >> we're growing and we take it a little bit at a time at a time. >> Just want to remind um at the high school. High school >> auditorium. >> The is the carpet up next year and then are we doing anything this year? >> Doing anything this year with painting and that kind of thing or >> the carpet should be this year. >> Okay. It's this year. Okay. >> We're going to do the carpet this year. And then painting we're looking at because >> trying to figure out what we want to paint and just how much
060of it we want to paint. um it can get very difficult, very quick just to get access to parts of the wall. >> Um when we did the upgrade for the sound and all of that, there's part of the auditorium. The only way to get up to that section of the wall is to literally go to the catwalk, walk across the steel beam and go over there. And we had a guy, we nicknamed him Spider-Man, that was rigged out and was um clipped into that beam so that he wouldn't fall. and he was literally hanging from that beam as they were hanging those speakers. And um it's just hard to get to certain areas. So if we're going to paint, we just need to make it make sure that we're doing something that looks good
061but that we can get to. >> And the carpet's this summer or this year? >> It's this school year. So I'm working with Mr. Boyd on when we're going to schedule that >> so that we can do it at a time that we don't have to shut down the auditorium for very long. But the carpet was put in in 2009. Oh, yeah. It needs Oh, I did the last um upgrade in there, the bond bin. So, it is due to be replaced. We're working on that. We're working on that. >> Thanks. >> So, that that was our those are kind of the big picture items that came out of our evaluation that we got. There were other things that we kind of worked on and other things they praises that were doing well. and you're
062seeing that in the accolades that we've won and what the student progress and student awards that you're seeing. >> Um, our enrollment is something that we've been looking at. So, we are now, let me take that back for a second. We are using a group called Cadenza. Cadenza takes our data from Skyward and they give me a dashboard and I can see enrollment numbers. I can see retention by program, by campus, by teacher. Um, it also pulls UIL ratings. It pulls uh TME like all region results. So, it pulls a lot of data together for us to look at. So, that is something new. We just got this dashboard at the end of this last school year. So, we're still working our way around it. The numbers that you're going to see are based on
063that dashboard and he pulled data from the last three years. So, 22 23 23 24 25. And you're going to see a unique student enrollment. That is the actual number of students enrolled in more than one fine arts class. So if they're taking three fine arts class, they're counting one time. So that's actual individual students. And then program enrollment, that is if they're in band and choir, they're counting twice. So you're going to see two sets of numbers. So I needed to explain that. So our enrollment with the unique students in 22 23 was about and this is secondary. I'm only doing 6 through 12 because we teach 100% of the elementary. So, I keep them out because it messes with the numbers. So, >> we had 2,732 6 through 12th graders taking fine arts,
064which is about 63.9% of the district 6 through 12 population. Um, 3,228 program enrollment. So, you can see we do have a high number of kids that take more than one fine art program. in 2324 was 2,686 and we were about 61.7%. With 3,148 in the program enrollment and in 2425 we have 2,611 which is about 60.5% 3,6 in program enrollment. So there's a trend there that I'm not liking and we're looking at it. And so um this next slide I'm going to talk through some of the um obstacles and challenges that um we're trying to navigate. And the biggest one is state accountability. >> Um House Bill 4545 requires accelerated instruction for any student not passing STAR. So what's happening for the middle school level, we have to make sure that that's happening. They
065are not getting able to do multiple electives. And so that's the piece that is is causing a problem. That is not a Temple ISD saying we're going to put this in. It's the state saying you have to provide this. So that's a piece that we've got to try to figure out. How can we find other ways for our middle school kids to access our programs when they're not doing well in the STAR test? Um um my first thing is let's not do STAR, but I don't get to say that. So that is a challenge for us. Another challenge is CCMR at the high school. The CCMR um requirements have changed and we've got to have a much higher percentage which is something we're shooting for. We want our students to be college and career military
066ready. We want our students passing the STAR test. Uh the requirements, however, don't recognize fine arts as contributing to CCMR. So, it's creating situations where our students can't always stay in our programs or they can't do multiple programs. So those are kind of some of the challenges that we have that are getting creating some of those enrollment numbers. So we talk about how we're navigating. >> One of those is increasing the parent and student interaction opportunities. We are trying to find ways to get parents involved and up so that we can tell them, hey, here's how you do a three-year plan for middle school. Here's how you do a four-year plan for high school. Here are the things that you can try to do that will help position your students to be able to continue
067in fine arts and to do multiple fine arts and to do fine arts and athletics and to do fine arts and CTE and do fine arts and advanced academics. >> They want to do all the things and so we want to try to help them. And one of the things we changed was our fifth grade um elected nights. And so this last year we did one night at each of the three middle school campuses and we had our band directors all of them there doing instrument choice. We had orchestra there doing instrument choice. We had every elected teacher at that campus there. We had the counselors there and we had 237 students >> with their parents show up at between those three events. We've been averaging maybe averaging maybe 15. >> So we got more
068parents there and involved. So, we're going to continue working that. How can we get the parents there involved and get them information? >> Our second one is, this is I'm excited about this. >> We're adding dual credit. We're adding dual credit. >> Um, and thank you Dr. Rogers Rogers for all making this happen. >> We're partnering with Temple College and what's unique about dual credit, piloting it with the band >> is it's a music appreciation course, which is usually a standalone. >> Usually a standalone, >> which means they're dropping band. I don't want that. So what we've done is with working with Temple College, we're overlaying that music appreciation into band. It's going to be a hybrid course that they will have some work that they have to do online and some additional work and
069projects and things that they have to do to meet the requirements for the course, but a lot of what they're doing in their band class also meet the requirements for that course. We have two band directors who are qualified to do this. It's a semester course. So, we will be offering it in the fall semester in our wind ensemble and we will be offering it in the spring semester in symphonic band. So, the students will get three credits of dual credit uh course which helps towards CCMR. So, I'm super excited. We're piloting it there. What's really cool about our fine arts department at the high school, I have teachers in every department who are qualified to teach dual credit. Um dance is working on her master's degree right now. Um, we have two teachers in
070theater qualified. We have an art teacher who's qualified. Band and choir. We have three two teachers in band, one in choir who are qualified. Orchestra may become me floating in helping with those seat hours as needed. But we can do this department wide. So, we're starting with band this year and our plan is to expand it out into the other programs and just build it out over the next three years. So, I'm very excited to be offering some of it. That's going to be a huge thing for us. >> Huge thing for us. >> Um, we're investigating unique unique ways to open up opportunities for fine arts. And some of this is we're just talking to other districts. We are not the only one facing this. >> Other school districts, other fine arts programs are
071having the same challenges. And so we're going to them. What are you doing that's different that's new that we can try? Um, Cadenza utilizing that data, looking at the recruitment, but also looking at retention. We've got a program that doesn't have high retention. What's going on? What do we need to look at? And then updating our tests. So, we've done a snapshot for principles and it will go through goes through domains two and three of tests and says in band this is what is proficient in a band room and it's very very specific and on a snapshots it goes through and it says this is what you should see. This is what you might see. This is what you should not see. And it's made it possible for our principles and assistant principles who are
072not don't have a background in fine arts to actually give that teacher some very specific feedback. And if they're able to get specific feedback on what they're seeing and what's going on, then that can only help our instruction and ours. So we're updating that this summer and we'll be implementing that as well. So that's kind of what we have been what we have done and what we're working towards. So to finish us out, to finish us out, >> I want to show you what I want to show you. >> So I want to introduce you to a few people. I want to introduce you to a few people. >> So our first one is Angel. Our first one is Angel. >> Angel graduated in 2017. She was a choir student. >> Um and she is
073currently the choir director at Lamar Middle. She came home. She came home. >> And um I asked our students, I asked them to give us a quote. She said, "I can genuinely say that without the T finance department, I have no clue where I would be and what I would be doing at this moment of my life. I had many interests but only one passion. There's not been a single person who's found out what I'm doing for my career in a surprise. >> This is what makes me happy and TSC fine arts helps me find that passion. >> Now I can help others grow other growing minds. >> This is what this fine arts program does. >> Fine arts program does. >> And our next one I'm >> a little emotional on some of these.
074A little emotional. Um Ashton Yaro graduated in 2020. >> Graduated in 2020 in the orchestra and jazz band. He is a full-time musician in Maui in Hawaii. In Hawaii. >> I want that job. I want that job. >> Um he does teaching, recording, performing, music director, show production. He came back and played for sound. He was our bass player for sound this year. He came back from Hawaii to do that. >> Um he said the Temple ISD fine arts program had a huge impact on me. Everything I'm able to do now is because of the opportunities given to me by my music teachers. Teachers like Mr. Flowers, Mr. Dram, Mr. Mr. math is why included me among others were responsible for getting me some of my first real gigs and teaching me the skills I
075needed to do this professionally. I have a picture of that child when he was an eighth grader and was unhappy with his new orchestra teacher laying on the floor of the Lamar orchestra room next to his base cuz he play >> and we never gave up on him. >> We never gave up on him >> and he's out there living the life >> and doing really well. >> And our last one I want to talk about I want to talk about graduated in 2023. She was a theater student. She's currently majoring in lighting design at the University of Houston and she just received an internship with the Houston Shakespeare Festival as a lighting designer. >> Um she works for the Moody Center and Life Nation as a stage hand helping with lighting. She said the
076played a crucial role in shaping who I am today. Being a part of Miss Stewart's theater program gave me a sense of purpose and belonging during a time when I was still figuring out my identity. It taught me how to collaborate, communicate, and express myself creatively in ways that traditional academics could. Through lighting design, I discovered confidence and resilience. Learning how to handle pressure, take constructive criticism, and think on my feet. Theater wasn't just an extracurricular activity. It became a space where I found my voice and realized my passion for the arts. Those experiences continued to guide me in my college journey, both personally and professionally. >> This is what you have done. for Temple ISD for Temple. >> And these students are a product of the hard work of our staff work of our
077staff >> and the support of this board and administrator and administrator. >> So, >> Thank you >> very much for your time. >> If anyone has any questions for me for me, >> members, you have any questions? >> So, you have any questions? >> I just want to say it's thank you for you and your staff and the teachers, what you're doing for the students in the community. It's truly outstanding. truly outstanding. Fine arts is is truly part of the fabric of Temple. >> Fabric of Temple and TD makes it so td makes it so. So, thanks. >> Thank you very very much. Very, very much. >> Thank you, Katrina. >> Thanks, Regina. >> Item two, resolution to declare a good cause exception for House Bill 3, armed security officer requirements. Eric, >> if you
078remember two years ago, two years ago, >> near the middle of summer from the legislative session and from the governor, >> we were charged with having a armed armed officer, an armed personnel at every campus. And we were able to the F the RFP process were able to have that armed personnel at every campus day one and not every district was able to say that. So we were pleased with that. >> Pleased with that. Uh, one of the things, one of the things with that is that the law also says that says that >> there need the armed officer needed to be a commissioned police officer. And so that means it needed to be an SRO or a retired police officer. And if that wasn't the case, then the board could declare a good cause
079exception to this requirement and the exception is can be for two reasons. One is due to the availability of funding of funding >> and this year house billotment gave $20 per student. student. And if you take in all those TEA requirements requirements, it needs 300 per student to satisfy satisfy all these requirements and so being availability of funding the reasons that that we don't have SRO's at every campus and another one is due to qualified personnel. So even when the funding is available, then it's going to take 18 months to have the police department train an individual to uh be an an SRO. And so with uh that we are presenting to you the resolution to declare a good cause exception for the commissioned peace officers requirement. We will still have a armed personnel at
080every campus just like last year. SRO's at the secondary level, one at each middle school and two at the high school. >> Two at the high school. >> All right. Thanks, Eric. Members, any questions? Any questions? This does require approval. >> Require approval. >> I make a motion to approve. >> Motion by Miss Gallowing. >> Miss Gallow. >> Seconded by Mrs. Cook. >> All in favor signify by saying I. I. All oppose. Same sign. The eyes have sign passes. Thank you. Passes. Thank you. >> Item three, board policy education series. Education series. >> PBE legal board members authority members authority. >> BB local board members authority authority. >> C. BBI legal board members technology resources electronic communications. D. BBI local board members technology resources electronic communications. E legal board meetings. FBE local board meetings GE
081legal board meetings public participation and HBE local board meetings public participation participation. >> All right. This uh group of policies from the B section is for the newer members. This is a good summary for summary for board responsibilities and processes >> and for experience members. This is a good review of the things that you've been doing and what you've been doing and where those are located in policy. So with BBE with BB legal it says that it says that >> a board member may not only act on behalf of the board. So that's you as a board act as a unit and you also as members can request documents from the district and it doesn't have to go through the public information request when you request those. But that also leads to you fall under
082having to having the confidentiality and furpa rules also for you also for you. >> You also being a board member and when you act within the scope of your duties there are immunities both state law gives you immunity as well as the federal law when you're acting as board members board members. Going to the local part of this policy part of this policy, >> the board has final authority to determine and interpret policies that govern the schools. >> So you develop the local policies and it is how you interpret it. >> So it's not an individual can't come and say well I think it means this. You as a board determine what local policy means and what you want it to mean. Uh uh board board can only take action when they're when you're meeting
083together under together open meetings act meetings act >> also in the the BB this is the local part of it when you receive concerns and complaints and the policy says that they are referred to the superintendent or an appropriate administrator administrator looking at the BBI talking about technology. If even if you even if you do board business on your personal device, that still needs to be it falls under the requirements of public information. And so you have to save that properly. Give it to the district to save. And that uh and that uh again it goes deals also with the electronic record that those need to be saved for record retention record retention. >> Looking at be legal be legal board action occurs only when there's a majority of the me members vote vote that
084a meeting is meeting is defined as when there is a quorum. So when you read all these and it says meeting that means that there is at least a quorum that was present. Exceptions to this exceptions to this um having to call a call it to call it >> and post it is if it's a social function if you're at a convention if you're at a ceremonial event or a press conference then that doesn't uh require a post meeting posted. One of the one of the pieces I'd encourage you to read illegal talks about talks about prohibited series of communications. This was a major topic topic 8 10 years ago particularly with text is that if so if you're texting individual board members and you start including more people you have still you need to
085be cognizant of the rules for having a meeting outside of a called public meeting. So if you have any questions, you can ask that. But that's one of the the pieces in in that policy in that policy. >> Some of the some of the requirements for a an open meeting is it has to be have access to the public. It has to be recorded. There are some exceptions for having an emergency meeting if there needs to be needs to be >> for be local talks about board meetings about board meetings. It uh it uh says in local policy says in board policy that we'll meet on the second Monday of each month at 6:00 >> with proper notice that can be changed and modified modified. >> The deadline for submitting items items 7th calendar day
086before the meeting. So if there's an item that want to submit it, local policy says it's needs to happen seven days. And it uh one of the things that was changed a couple months ago was that it has to be admitted by at least two board members. >> At least two board members. >> It does follow board meetings do follow the Robert of order newly revised revised >> and discussions are limited to what's on the agenda. agenda. >> Looking at the last policy, the last legal part of it be talks about public participation participation. >> The right of to redress grievances of the government is in the US Constitution as well as Texas Constitution. And so the board addresses this through its local policy at meetings. It allows audience participation participation. And that's and that's
087at all public meetings and those are posted or given at the beginning of each meeting. beginning of each meeting, >> the the comments cannot exceed three minutes. >> And the board president does have the authority to make adjustments, whether it's making the public comments at a later part of the meeting or setting an overall time limit or scheduling another meeting if in order to hear all the the comments. the each individual can have no less than one to talk when they are they are >> set up to participate in that way that way. >> The last thing I'll mention is disruption disruption. If there is a person in the audience in the audience who is being disruptive, they're given a warning. And if that's doesn't change their behavior, then the board president may request from
088the law enforcement official enforcement official >> to uh have that person uh that person removed removed. >> Any questions on the set of policies? Set of policies. >> Thank you, Eric. Members, any questions? >> Members, any questions? >> Appreciate your work and going over these series. Very important series. Very important. >> F committee reports.
