001It's six o'clock. So, we're going to go ahead and open our school board meeting. Um, we'll stand for the pledge of >> allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. and Superintendent Gaslin will read the land acknowledgement. >> Absolutely. We are the first peoples of these lands by acknowledging that the area in which we gather is within the traditional territory of the Silish tribe of Indians. The Stillish people have inhabited these sorry still people have inhabited these lands and waters since time immemorial and their descendants have remained in this territory to this day. The Stillborn people have continued to practice the traditional ways of their ancestors of fishing, hunting, and gathering. The Stillborn tribe
002has had these lands and cultural traditions passed on to them by their ancestors. They believe that everything has a spirit and that they are the caretakers of these lands and waters. >> Thank you. And for roll call, we have Director Dean Cade, Director Kerry, myself, Director Dayne, and I'd like to make a motion that we excuse Director Gothner, and Director Leoo tonight. I will second. All those in favor? I >> I I'd also like to make a motion if it um I'd like to add to new business 6A um to add the GFA I three-year contract to new business. All right. Second. >> Oh, a second. Sorry. >> There we go. All in favor? >> I. >> Okay. So, that will be added to new business, sir. All right. And then number two is uh
003board comments. Director King, have anything for us tonight? >> Um I don't have a lot. Just I'm kind of exhausted with getting ready for school as I know everybody else is. Um so just hang in there teachers. We're almost there to the first day of school. And um I know Director Kerry is going to have some things to say about the shooting that occurred today in Minneapolis. Um, but my heart goes out to all of those families, all of those teachers and students. Um, it especially when you work in a school in a school district, it hits a little bit closer to home. And even when you're a mother, it it hits even closer to home. So, um I'm just thankful that we um have been working towards in the last few years of making
004our district here safer, um the presence of uh Sheriff Dalton for just all of the things that we've done um to help prevent these things. And the best we can do is um to train and to be ready and hopefully it never happens to us. >> Thank you, Director Kerry. Thank you very much. So, uh, yeah, I, uh, I I'm I'm going to break a little bit of personal precedence. I, um, as a schoolboard director, I've always believed in focusing in the governance, well-being of families we serve, steering clear of deeply political debates, but, um, what happened in Minneapolis today, um, compels me to speak. And I wrote it down just because I wanted to make sure that I I I got out, um, kind of the depth of of of my feelings here. Um,
005for those who are unaware, today gunman walked up to a Catholic school and fired indiscriminately through a window while children were inside attending morning mass during their first week of school. Uh, two children were killed, an eight and 10year-old and many more in injured. And I cannot fathom the pain and the anguish felt by the students and staff in that building by the families who now have to try and pick the pieces. Um, following tragedies like this, there always seems to be a national conversation about gun control, mental health, who knew what when. Um, these conversations usually are wrapped in, you know, some sort of political ideology wherever you are on the spectrum. Um, and eventually, at least in my opinion, everyone just kind of stops talking and and we all move on and and
006then something like this happens again. So, um I I want to implore everyone to take a moment and realize that the thing that that really struck me about the tragedy today is that it wasn't about someone bypassing a locked door or outside security measures or not having enough cameras or those types of things. It's the stark reality that at least for me again, no level of protection can fully stop a person intent on harm from simply firing into a building, which is what happened today. And I felt deeply that we as a country, as a community, need to have an honest discussion on school safety. Um, and keep in mind, I said school safety and what level of security we're truly comfortable seeing our children into. This is a topic every parent, every community member,
007every teacher can participate in, no matter their feelings on gun control, the Second Amendment, or what political parties currently in power. We all want our children to be educated in a safe and loving environment. We all want to spend another evening with our kids, plan another summer vacation, see them grow and flourish. I think we can all agree there's more that we can do uh for school security. Um the uncomfortable truth is that this tragedy lays bare that no one in this room or any fully funded school district absolutely protect against simply walking up to one of our buildings and firing indiscriminately. Are we comfortable with that reality? I for one am not. Once we determine what level of security we're comfortable with, we need to agree to work toward that end. Whatever that whatever
008that agreement that we make is and push through politics and ideology, if we can all agree that only this level is sufficient, then we responsibility to provide it. Here in Granite Falls, I feel even as a small community, we need to be a part of that discussion. We owe it to our children to each other to face that reality. Not because it's easy, but because it is unbelievably necessary. the children who survived in Minneapolis will carry the the trauma of this the rest of their lives and I don't want us to ever be that community. We've had shootings in Mary'sville. It's it's been close to home. I don't want that to happen to Granite Falls. So So my ask is in your homes with your neighbors in your place of worship local football games in
009this boardroom. Let's have that conversation. What level of security are we comfortable with? And when we do, let's ask the question, what more could should we be doing to protect our students? Should we be securing entry points, refining our safety drills, hardening school design? Maybe there's additional things. There's definitely some that we can do there. Should we strengthen partnerships with law enforcement, first responders so things are faster? Should we expand mental health? Train our community on how to respond in the crisis. more transparent about the relative costs of safety and the impacts that that has on school buildings. And then finally, are there modifications necessary to our systems or government to make these changes effective? And I want to make clear, I'm not I'm not I'm not wrapping this in a decision based solely upon
010taking guns away or changing the SE or any of that stuff. It's just based on what level of safety are we comfortable with. I don't believe that these are partisan questions. I don't believe that there are political questions. They are community questions. And the answer we come to together will determine what kind of environment we send our children into every day. That's the work ahead of us. That's the conversation I'm asking for us to have and carry forward. I'm just terrified that this situation is just going to be another tragedy that we all talk about for a week and then it all kind of fades away. Let's collectively agree that now we want better for our kids and for our community. That's all. Thank you. Thank you for your very passionate and compassionate words. Um
011I think that everybody is just really absorbing what has happened today. A lot of people haven't even heard about it. Um it will sweep and hopefully at some point one of these tragic events will spark a conversation that moves us forward and and starts dealing with whatever it is that's sparking this over the last 25 and 30 years. So, um changing a little uh changing the mood a little bit. U my comment is about our um the program that we had last week at uh Mountain Way for welcoming uh students and and our community back to school. It was an amazing event. Um well uh attended. I think um personally I think I cooked about 1,400 hot dogs and um and just what the what the community coalition, the school, all of the volunteers that
012came out, the um the folks from uh different services that came and and were there to answer questions and provide services for families in need. um all the school supplies that were handed out. What an amazing event and a great way to start our school year. And so um super excited about that and um glad that I was able to participate in two areas um with the fire department and with the school. Uh so um I want to thank everybody that came out and uh helped out with that. And I look at that program and it expands every year. it it was way bigger this year than it was last and and every year. So, amazing job for all of our staff and all the volunteers. So, hats off to that. And so, moving on,
013we're going to go to um the superintendent report. >> Oh, I have a quick um under legislative report. I have a quick Sorry. >> No, no, it's okay. Um, so I I did get um we are a member of NSB, the National um school boards association, and they did send me a federal advocacy and public policy team update. Um I I'll just hit the high point. So um I guess uh both houses of Congress are out of session until September 2nd. Um, so basically when they get back, I guess they only have four weeks before the new fiscal year to um, basically either do a continuence resolution, a CR, um, or, you know, obviously agree to a budget or else there's potentially a government shutdown. again. Uh I guess the reason why that's impactful for
014us is is that um uh the administration, I guess the current administration may ask Congress to resend money's already appropriated uh as education funds for fiscal year 2025 and in turn treat that funding as expired come midnight on October 1st. Um, and there's a legal battle um on whether that they could do that or not. But essentially, they're just putting us on notice that there could be um some that could complicate the FY26 budget negotiations and also potentially um also signal um a shutdown as they're they're discussing that. So, um, you know, as we've talked about before, there's what is it like 3% 4% of our budget comes from, uh, the Fed, which might seem insignificant, but is significant to us. So, um, just kind of a notification that there might be some issues there.
015So, that's it. Thank you. Every dollar counts. Yeah. Okay. Superintendent East, please. >> Yes. So, um, busy week. we have our uh our teachers back today and tomorrow and then again on Tuesday with school starting on Wednesday. Um in my report to the board, we want to start with a little bit of an enrollment update. Um now the enrollment at this time of year is always um a moving target. We have a lot of kids that are registering and we really keep a close eye on kindergarteners. Um but we also don't have um a lot of times the kids that have have moved away records haven't been requested to another system. So it's our it's our best guess as we go forward. Um so this is how we're looking as of today. Um fourth day
016count is the big one. So we have the Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and then the Monday and it's those you know the kids who show up and the whites of the eyes that we see. Um, and then we'll we'll have a much better indicator. Um, we look pretty good. We, um, the capture rate on that Kinder is probably I know Marshall's back there. That's probably the area that we're the most concerned about. Hope we capture um, a few more Kinders that we know um, to be out there um, due to birth rates five years ago. So, we're keeping a close eye on that and um, I'll keep the board updated as we go. Yeah, it looks like the biggest impact there potentially, and I know from history, right, as you said, it starts and it starts
017to dwindle and then it comes back up, >> but that's a significant increase of of students at the high school. Um, or I guess tech, yeah, at the high school because crossroads is a different line item there. >> Um, you know, 50 more, is that right? Yeah, 50 more in 12th grade. Um, and I know we have some B some space there, but partially Yeah, >> at this point in time, they don't have the assignments to running start yet. So, a lot of those seniors and juniors will end up being Running Start students. So, their FTE won't be counted at the high school once once the actual first count happens. It'll be about 40 FT probably in Running Start. >> Got it. So, >> we haven't taken them out yet. Um, they are in the
018budget in the yellow column, but they're not out of those numbers yet. Got it. That's always a little bit of a of an estimate because we don't know how many kids are going to register. We'll keep you posted. All right. Just a little update. We've been doing a did you know campaign uh through the month of August on our social media. Um, and then also just, you know, posting out some things. Last week we had a bus ride with all of our new certificate staff members and all of our administrators. And thank you to Sue Parish who doned a tour guide hat and gave us all of the history of Granite Falls as we went around and uh we we toured of course through all of the buildings and then out the mountain loop and
019it was great. So thank you to transportation and our bus driver Melissa who um we did a 90minute ride and it was amazing. Then just some other examples of some did you know things. Um we have a national night out picture on there as well. Um, but some things about our district just trying to tell, you know, all the things that are happening in the system. And then there's also the picture of uh some of that new sighting at Granite Falls High School and thank you again to um our taxpayers and the levy passage from 2022 that upgraded the sighting on Granite Falls High School. There was that need and um that was completed this summer and it looks beautiful. If you have a chance to go up to Granite Falls High School and take
020a look, it looks really good. They did a really nice job on that repair. All right, our School of Rock, which is our back to school event, has begun. Uh, like I said, all buildings had teachers back today. And, um, those are some of the images of the learning that happened. Um, tomorrow we start at 7:30 at Granite Falls High School in the Performing Arts Center. Uh, our theme this year, our back to school message is around hope. There's decadesl long research around hope and that critical component. Some people will say that hope is not a strategy and I would argue it is a prerequisite. So that is kind of where we're grounding ourselves in. We'll be there tomorrow and then the second half of the day our certificated staff members and administrators will be
021back in their school buildings for some more professional development. Staff are also in building on the 2nd which is next Tuesday and first day with students is on Wednesday and there is no early release that Wednesday. It's a full day. Um, and we're excited to to see our kids back in our schools. A really quick uh summer maintenance update. We've been This is the final edition because we've been talking kind of all summer at every meeting what the what's been happening and all of the work that our facilities and grounds and maintenance and custodial have been doing. So, uh, installation of three more water filling stations at Granite Falls High School. As you know, that was a big effort this year and we had to involve a plumber, but the idea is to get away
022from single-use plastics. Um, and our kids bring water bottles all the time to to school and they're able to go go refill. Um, those installation of those commercial ovens is almost done in the Granite Falls High School culinary class. Those were purchased, I think it was seven years ago, Marshall. Um, so we're getting those installed. the stadium bathroom repairs. We knew that that was the issue at graduation and so we're getting those done. The HVAC filters are in. That's that's a really big job. And so, thank you to Nikolai and team for that. Lots of classroom moves, too, because you know, as classes go through, they're different sizes and sometimes we have to move teachers and things. So, those are being completed. And then, um, soon to come is some water filling stations for both
023our elementary schools. wanted to make you aware of a legislative forum scheduled in October, October 23rd. Uh this summer I worked with a few other um area superintendent um um the superintendent of Lakewood, the superintendent of Mary'sville, and the superintendent of Lake Stevens. Um and we came together to offer this um opportunity for our our legislators to come and be in front of a large group. It's going to be at in Everett School District. That is the date to save the date. And um we are all they've already been reached out to and scheduled, but as we go, it's important that we encourage all of them to attend. We've had some nice representation as you all know in district as they came and talked to our Tiger Cabinet students. Um in May, we had uh
024two representatives and one senator here in Granite Falls. And then this summer, uh, we had one of our our, um, our congressw women was here in Granite Falls and I was able to meet with her and talk with her. So, we have been, um, it's been really nice to have our legislators out here in the Grant Falls area, but this is another opportunity for us to get in front of them and talk about education and funding and all of those things. So, please put that save the date if you can make it. That would be wonderful. I'll help her send out an invite as well. And then just a little of what's happening, some new things and um what's happening in the Granite Falls School District. We're starting school next week, so that's super exciting.
025Our we launched a new district website. So Emily and a team, Dan all worked on this. This is the stuff that happens behind the scenes. And it is it is a bigger task than um than anyone would ever think to Dan's raising his eyebrows. It it really is. It's just it's a huge task. There was many broken links. there was old data and old information on there. So, please take a look at the Granite Falls website and we will continue to update and and those kind of things. We would rather air on the side of it being lighter right now and filling in with the correct information and links um than have, like I said, broken links or incorrect information. So, thank you Emily and Dan for all of the work you did really all
026last year to make that happen. Um, a new app has been launched for transportation and um our families. We put it on our website. We've put it on our social media. Our families are able now to go in. They have to go in because we're in a cooperative with Lake Stevens. So, they have to go in as Lake Stevens, but now they can see in lifetime when their child will be getting off the bus, if there's any issues, the messaging, lots to do there. Um, the new visitor badging system is implemented. Thank you, Dan, for making that happen. We met on that several times last year and we informed the board. The first day of school, people will be able to walk, especially kinders, to class. And after that, um, people will be badging in.
027You have to have governmentissued ID to get into our schools. This is a very common practice in in districts across the nation. Kind of to director Kerry some of your point of really knowing who's coming and going and who's in our buildings in our our students and staff should always see a badge on people. So, we are all badged and if they're a visitor, it's a it's a sticky badge that after the um government issued ID goes in, that badge prints out and that's what we will look for with people walking around our system. Wanted to let you know a little bit. This is a a another upgrade. Swank K12 streaming. Um again, Dan and I have been working on this for probably six or eight months. um just a way to um have a
028vetting system for the streaming services that are being used in classrooms. So, we have a district-wide um access and it helps us to be um we shouldn't be streaming from personal things such as Netflix or Disney Plus or Hulu. Those that's it's not legal to stream those into your classroom. So this allows us to say everything has to go through a swink and then it allows our teaching and learning department also in conjunction with board policy 2020 it allows us to to vet those things and how is it attached and how is it you know relevant to the curriculum and the materials and the standards that we're teaching too. Our fall sports have begun. Uh we saw the high school I actually saw the high school football team last night. They were having they were
029having dinner um outside of the high school and they had just finished practice. Uh first home football game is on September 12th. They are away the first Friday of um of September. Our new golf team has 17 athletes out and so that's exciting. I found out today they didn't have golf tees. So, I made a request of a PGA pro that I know to bring some home from work. So, they they will have them tomorrow or the next day. I I hope he grabs enough because I guess they didn't have any. They were like, the golf coach goes, "I didn't think of it. We had we had no golf tees." So, here we go. Volleyball has their first jamboree on September 6th. I talked to a couple of players today. They're excited. Things are going
030well. And then girls soccer has their first home match on September 11th. And our middle school sports start practice on September 8th, which is that first Monday um that we are back. Any questions? Gearing up. This is going to be great. We're super excited about tomorrow at School of Rock and seeing everyone at the Performing Arts Center. Emily will be playing the piano. It's going to be great. Has agreed to to say a few words. So, thank you for everyone who pulls that off. It's it's a big event. I'm really excited that we will have our cheer and our marching band. I heard a staff member say today that last year we had cheer and marching band greet our staff member members as they came into school of rock and this teacher said today she
031goes that just made me feel so important as I walked in and I love that because that's what we want our kids to feel like too. So we take care of those things and we greet people and then um we also have a student forum tomorrow. I have five high school students who are going to talk about their experience in our schools and answer a few questions that our staff will hear. So, tomorrow should be great. The singing will be small and the information will be great and uh we're looking forward to it. >> Excellent. And no questions? >> No. >> Okay. I just a statement is that um the school or the bus program app that is launched, I think that's going to be awesome. It seemed to get off at a little little
032rocky start. Um, people trying to put in that they're Brandon Falls School District. And I'm not sure how message didn't get straight out, but it came. >> And Paris, I I have to give Paris props. On the social media post, it said, "Make sure you put in Lake Stevens. We're in a cooperative agreement. You have to enter Lake Stevens." And the people, of course, in the comments were like, "It doesn't work. I can't." Somebody's like, "Well, it says you have to put in like like So, >> it was nice that there were some people who followed up and said they're already using this app and it's it's fantastic and I wish it was around when my kids were in school because it would have been nice when the school buses were delayed." Um, when I'm
033standing out waiting and wondering why 30 minutes after they were supposed to be dropped off there's no bus. >> It's amazing what can detain a bus, >> right? >> Oh, yeah. Absolutely. >> Okay. as a dad that's been halfway to work and the kid calls and like I don't see the bus and you turn around and the bus shows up and you're like I guess I got to turn around again and head back to work. Yeah, that's great. >> All right, so um next is items from the floor and and we have one person who is going to talk and >> yeah and so just what what's your name? >> Rosalie Smith. >> Rosalisse Smith. Okay, Rosalie. So there's a a little statement that I have to read and I think it was provided with
034to you prior to the the meeting. So um >> it's my first time. >> Okay. Well, I I will probably talk more than you. So um the public comment section of the agenda is an opportunity for people to address the school board. Since this is a business meeting with the Granite Falls School District board of directors, the purpose of public comment is for the interest to communicate with the board of directors about items on the agenda or specific work within the scope of the school district. This is not a time for the audience to address each other.

Um the board also accepts comments and questions at any time through email. We read each email we receive and appreciate the time and the effort it takes for those who write them. So, >> is yours >> Okay. Well, you won't have to worry about cutting me off after three minutes because when I tried to time myself, it was a minute and 40 seconds.
037So, you will be able to get home soon. Basically, what I wanted to talk about I'm just talking to you. >> Yeah, you can or you can stand up. Whatever you're comfortable with. Okay. >> I just wanted to Well, I did say my name is Rosalie Smith. I have lived and everyone can hear me. >> Yes. Yes, you can. Yeah, >> I have lived in Granite Falls for 20ome years. What I wanted to share with you tonight is just information about September 17th. I had talked to Paris about it. She gave me So, I don't know if I can leave information. I don't It's just um it's Well, I'll go ahead with this part. Okay. >> This summer, I took a civic class on the Constitution. It was very informative as you can probably figure
038out. It's been a while since I've been in high school. >> One of the issues that came up was September 17th. It said it is a federal law that stipulates public schools take time to read and study the Constitution. So, I just brought some bookmarks to leave for those. I'm not I mean just for what whoever would want to look at it or talk about it or say well is that true or even you know because sometimes things but I did enjoy that class. Um so that's what I was just leaving is that information if I can and those that want it can take it I don't need any of it back. And then in closing, see how I keep my cross on a more personal note. My grandson is a junior this year at
039Crossroads. I want what Crossroads wants for him to graduate with the skills and tools for his future. I will be involved in that plan this year and next. And I also thank you for the opportunity to meet you tonight. and thank you for your dedication to our schools. That's it. >> Oh, thank you so much for doing Rosley. >> And and >> if you want, you can leave give that to superintendent or actually to Paris and I don't want you to feel like you brought it and no one's going to look at it. >> Sorry. >> No, that's all right. Well, after your decision, >> you know, and you might even want to check because >> there's so many things we aren't sure is what's I was just excited and and and like I said,
040even for myself that there even was such a thing on the books about our constitution. >> Well, it is good and people especially these days really need to be aware of that and I know that the school district is working on programs for September 17th. So, thank you very much for coming in and addressing us. And it's good to meet you. >> Well, I could be back because I'm going to be around more. I'm going to the picnic on is it when is it tomorrow? >> The crossroads back. >> Yeah. >> Same faces. >> All right. >> Thank you. >> Look forward to talking to you outside of this meeting, too. That's great. >> All right. Moving on to um next uh line of business, unfinished business. And um we have a number of policies
041that are in the second reading. And I just asked before we start down the list, is there any significant changes that happen between the first reading and the second? >> Okay, perfect. All right. So then we'll move forward with that. Um I would like to make a motion that we accept the second reading um three students offenses and motion passes. Um, the next one, uh, I'll make a motion to, um, accept the second reading of, uh, policy 3210, non-discrimination. >> Second. >> Oh, she got me. There you go. All those in favor signify.

Now we're at the revised 6A which is >> revised 6A. >> Okay. >> Yes. >> So >> um the um so uh we are thankful that we were able to get a three-year contract with GFA ratified tonight. Um, personally, I I I I know myself and I I'm bold enough to say the board, we're um really thankful the partnership that we have with GFA. Um, and that the um uh this negotiation was wonderful and and I feel like everyone came to the table earnestly and looking to move the district forward. I'd like to
044thank uh the negotiation team and um Director Kees or Director Kees, sorry, Superintendent Ges. and get your title right for the hard work. Um and uh yeah, I'm really excited about it. So, um I move to approve the GFA three-year contract. Um yes, >> second. >> Okay. All those in favor? Hi. >> Hi. Hi. And I I want to just add that um it is refreshing to note that and today's political climate um and financial climate that our board, our our administration and the union could come together and actually work out an agreement well before school starts. We get that off the table and we prepare our schools to be successful. And so I'm super excited about that. >> You're here. >> All right. >> 6B. Um we're going to look at uh the adoption
045of res resol uh board resolution um 2526-02 intergovernmental cooperated cooperative >> 01. Oh, because we moved and we had an another A.

So speaking of the bus and why we have to put because we have an interd district agreement with Lake Stevens on transportation. Um we do this every single year where basically we just kind of renew all those agreements and stuff like that. So um pretty part for the course. Um so um if it pleases the board I move that we approve resolution number interd district cooperative agreement with other school districts. >> I second. >> All those in favor >> I and then on uh now B resolution 2526-02 intergovernmental cooperation agreements with other school districts. >> Yeah. Same kind of
046thing. Um we do it every single year and redo it. So, please board. I move we approve resolution number 252602, intergovernmental cooperative agreement with other school districts. And I'll second that. All those in favor? I >> I. And then the we um we're going to look at the first reading to adopt policy 1825 addressing school director violations. [Laughter] >> Absolutely. >> No. And we all we all sign a board conduct policy for board directors. So this is essentially um says the same thing. I mean a board director is elected by the community. So I mean we can't the the only thing the board could do to remove someone from the board is if they um if there's a certain level of absences. But um when I read this, just speaking for myself, it's just you
047know operating in a manner that is civil and that focuses on governments and stuff like that and and that clearly defines kind of the steps that the board can take if for some reason there's some violation or something like that. But of the 12 years I've been here, we've always figured it out. So I I would venture to say this is never going to be used. But um >> we still need the guard rails in place. >> I agree. I agree. Um I move we accept the first read to adopt policy 1825 addressing school director violations. >> Okay. Second. >> All those in favor? >> I Okay. And then >> get on. >> No, I can't. And I'll be here for a while. Um, moving on, we uh have the consent agenda and um >>
048any addition. >> They should all be on there. >> Okay. >> I'm sorry I missed it. >> Oh, they're all on there. >> Okay, perfect. Thank you. So, no additions to the consent agenda. So, um I'm out with this, Carl. >> It uh if there's no comments, then it passes by unanimous consent. >> There you go. So, is there any comments? No. Then we pass this by unanimous consent and that will be the end of the the meeting at 6:39. We are adjourned.
