So, hi, my name is Za Botley. I'm a senior at Sun Sar High School and I'm our ASV president.
002Um, right now I'm definitely looking forward to pack the gym and there's like a robotics fair and an art fair going on at our school that I'm really excited for this weekend. Hi, I'm Ashley Shriber. I am a senior Sumar High School. I am the battalion executive officer of our summer high school JRTC program as well as an ASB assistant tech coordinator. Something I'm really looking forward to is that Bink's hosting their first ever JRTC drill and rifle conference. So I have seven schools in this side of the Washington State. Should be pretty fun for all of us to compete friendly against each other. And >> um my name is Piper Martinson. I'm a junior at Sar High School. Um I'm a head ASB assemblies coordinator and I'm also a part of our cheer team.
003Um, I'm also really looking forward to uh pack the gym and a service conference we put on from our leadership class. It's just something we get to bring all these different schools and they get to learn so much about just awesome speakers that get to speak and give us so much inspiration and I'm really looking forward to it. >> Well, thank you all for being with us tonight for uh helping us get folks in and just have a great rest of your year. >> Thank you. Is that awesome? >> Oh, let's try our classes. Next, we have approval of agenda. The administration recommends the board of directors approve the February 17th, 2026 board meeting agenda.

I just want to make sure we we thank uh the donations, Emerald Hills Elementary PTA donation and the First Washington Robotics donation. Those are outstanding and will help our kids a lot. All those in favor of the motion. >> I opposed. All right, Dr. Dan. >> All right, I'd like to invite Michelle Lewis up for some pretty special recognitions tonight. Thank you. Good evening, school board directors and superintendent Dent. Tonight, I have the great honor of recognizing a group of fabulous educators that represent some of the very best in our school district.
005We are celebrating our newest national board certified teachers. National board certification is one of the most rigorous professional achievements in the field of education. It is earned through deep reflection, evidence of impact on student learning, and commitment to continuous growth. It is not just a credential. It is a clear signal that these teachers are elevating practice, strengthening instructional decisions, and helping every student feel seen, challenged, and supported. To our newly certified teachers out in the audience, thank you for choosing excellence when no one was requiring it. for doing the hard work behind the scenes and for pushing your practice forward in ways that directly benefit students and colleagues. Your leadership will ripple across classrooms, teams, and schools. At this time, I would like to invite each of our newly certified teachers to come forward as
006I call your name so that we can recognize your accomplishments. Please remain in the front of the boardroom after you receive your swag as we will need to take a picture with the school board when we finish. So, we'll start with Kelsey Baldwin, learning specialist at Tahali Heights Elementary, >> Kelsey certified in the area of exceptional needs. Sarah Freewalt from Victor Falls Elementary, certified in literacy. Next up, we have Maria Mononttoya from Sumar High School, certified in career and technical education. >> Victoria Bay, also from Sumar High School. She's a math teacher certified in mathematics. Next we have Hannah Wentz from Daffodil Valley Elementary certified in literacy. >> We also have Katie Duncan, science teacher from Bonnie Lake High School, certifying in science. And finally, last but not least, Ruth Kinley, science teacher from Sumar
007High School, certified in science. I would also like to recognize our two fabulous NBCT facilitators, Jenna Chantler and Julie Hannon, and thank them for leading the support group for this cohort. Please join us at front All right, please join me in congratulating and thanking our newest National Board Certified Teachers. We are proud of you and we celebrate you tonight. After we take a picture with the school board, we will meet you in the lobby for yet another photo op. Yeah, it's on the right. All right. They're so cute. >> Sarah, >> hi. >> Somebody want to join Sarah just so it kind a little friendlier. Uh, superintendent comments. >> Yeah, I just want to um uh remind everyone, it was mentioned earlier by one of our Sumar High School students, the STEM fairs this weekend.
008It's going to be super fun. There's going to be a robotics competition going on at Sumar High School as well as the art fair. So, if you have time, swing by because there's something for everyone, I promise you, at the STEM fair. So, don't miss it. It's a great It's a great time for kids and for big kids, too. >> Okay. Next, we have board member comments. you want to start down, JB? >> Sure. Thank you. Um, let's see. Um, a couple of things I guess that I just want to talk about um, really quickly. Um, one, I'm already um, if just thinking about what we just saw already here at the beginning of this meeting. Um, we saw these great student uh, greeters that came today. these this group of young women that were
009articulate and leaders and just remind you um that that's you know and and from a variety of different um interests which I thought was really great to see. Um so I just want to just remember that. Um the other thing um and then to think that we have seven new um teachers that have gone above and beyond and that those are the teachers that are influencing and working with our kids is fantastic and tremendous and I think um super proud of them. Um, one of the things I'm going to say, I guess that will be different because I know some of my other board members have gone to and participated in some of the things that I have, but one of the things that I did that was a little bit different over the last
010uh week is I had the opportunity to um participate in our community at what was called Sumar University and it was put on by the city of Sumar where they um are just kind of 101 on how the city is operated and it was a really it it's a twoe evening course about six hours and they did have a pop quiz that I did okay on that. Um I could have used a little tutoring and um but it's a great background of the complexity of running a city and um and it reminds me a lot of the complexity of running a school district. Uh I think so many of us um have a very me included have a very um personal view of what we think the city needs to take care of like the
011potholes and some other things that we are visible and that we see or there are visible things that we blame the city on that they have no control over because it's something that is a state mandate. Um, and so it reminds me an awful lot of running a school district and the learning journey I have been on over the last year as I understand the tremendous complexity and how much more goes into um a school district than just the classroom and the teachers and um obviously it's the culmination and and what we want to see how our children are learning and students are learning but um but there's so much more to it and so it was a really interesting experience. I've got one more day that I'll be going to and um yeah, so
012I thought I would just share that and I just would encourage anyone to get involved, learn a little bit more. It's just so eyeopening to be a little bit more educated about what and how these um you know, some of our our cities and and our schools and and whatnot run. Uh, and I do want to give a shout out to Brandon in the back because we did have a there was a police section to that where we learned about our police, our police department and he was um they were shouting um his praises and so it was nice to know that um we have him here in our school district. So, okay, thank you for telling me more but you said you were going but I had no idea what it was. So, good
013to hear. Thank you. Um, I won't talk too long because others of you probably will talk about the robotics um, presentation we had at the study session, but um, I'll just say once again that I know it takes a little more effort for us to go from the board uh, room to a site for study sessions, but I just find them so valuable um, to get into our buildings and see um, you know, where our kids and educators spend their day and then to see robotics in particular. Um there were I don't even know how many kids there that night at 700 p.m. and on a Tuesday night um tinkering away with the things that I could barely understand and wrap my brain around. Um these kids were so smart. Um and I think what
014struck me two things um my takeaways from that one I'm I'm a newly uh new fan of robotics the last few years going to the competition is just amazing. Um but two things that struck me. One was the engagement um of our kids. Um when you talk about um learning being engaging um that was highly engaging. Kids were there because they wanted to be they were collaborating. They were borrowing and sharing ideas and they were it was almost hard to talk to them because where I was interrupting their flow. Um so that struck me as just so um astounding and positive. Um, and the other thing was the um, intentionality of really bringing kids in early to robotics and the push to um, introduce them in elementary, but especially in 8th grade. Um, which helps
015that transition to high school. Um, not only from a robotics standpoint, but just that belonging standpoint of when you enter high school, you already have a familiar face. You already have something you're interested in and almost like this built-in community. Um, and I just think that's so valuable for kids is, you know, they might be struggling to find their way or their people or their who they are. Um, to have that connection already in place, I just thought was so good and that doesn't just happen. That was intentional. Um, so those are my two two of the t many takeaways from our study session last week. And then I also want to just mention that um I had a conversation with a parent in another district um who um thought it was worth noting. She
016said, "Man, I started following Summer Bonnie Lake on social media just because of the amazing things that they are doing." She said, "I am blown away by the way they um promote the way your superintendent is out um in our schools, how you put children at the center of everything you do." And I thought that was just worth sharing for a parent in another district to recognize um our social media. So, I want to give a shout out to L and Allison. I don't see either. Oh, I see El back there. Um that that's intentional work and it's being noticed not just in our community but in other communities too. And so just a shout out to you that um your hard work is definitely paying off maybe even more than you realize. So >>
017I tagging on to your our study session we had. I I'm always amazed about the robotics crew there and now that they have the eighth grade students in there. I haven't seen that before. And they're making the parts and stuff to make these robots and stuff. It's just amazing how involved they are. And they're in the classroom at night, late at night, getting these builds done. And before that, we went had the spaghetti feed build on the hill. Kuanas Club did very well that night. And Key Club did amazing. That place was clear full of people. I was really glad to see so many people show up for it. Was great event there. top of that. Um I also went to B Lake Elementary School and thanked them for a video they made for the
018school board and me mentioned a few of us and what they did really was a cute video and these kids do the morning announcements and stuff and they're just Bonnik Elementary. What a quality group of kids there and they always have been. These four students are just great. Um, Bill and my Bill and myself went to the we're facilitators at the BL Sun High School and program youth forum and that was really good. Usually I'm at the middle schools youth forums and these seniors and below have such and great thoughts of what can be done, what should be done even talking about place to go shop and they're talking about Lakeland Hills which I never thought about some place for kids to go shopping and hang out. They want more place to go to like
019that. So their ideas of what we can do in our cities in Sar and Bonnie Lake and up in Lakeland Hills stuff is really in inspiring that way they're thinking about it and um went to CFF commuter families good program my he didn't quite make the whole the whole thing but I was there for the summer mayor's talk and Carla Bowen was just a great speaker about where summer is and where summer's going and how well they're doing so I can just impressive to see how the city has it all together on top of what we've talked about this morning tonight already. And I went to Blake High School uh build pack the gym. That was quite an event. I mean the beforehand all they're doing they're all working together and and then the basketball
020team came out and just it was really great and all the excitement there and stuff. People are thanking me for coming saying hi. The gym was clear full. I mean, it was really, really good. I never been to one before, looking forward to in the future. And last week, Bill and I were at the Center High School ISD program and listening to those students, what they had a sample, a few students on the program and where they're going to go. It just amazes me the program we have for them and their future plans they have for themselves. And we also heard about some students that graduate and where they're going. I mean, it's a program for now and for the future. And it gets as long as they're involved, they can go a long ways
021and it's a it's a great and we also got a breakfast from the culinary class that morning too. Got everybody there and that was a great good meal. So it was a quite a busy month this month. Yeah. >> Well done because you've covered everything folks. So thank you. >> Okay, Mr. Brower. >> Thank you. Next we're moving to the audience comment portion of the meeting.

Our first audience comment this evening is from Tristan Wolf. Hi guys, I'm Tristan Wolf. I was a 2025 graduate and I just wanted to say I'm here to talk about the walkouts. It is honestly beyond disgusting that we are required by state law to bring our kids to a place that cannot even keep them in the school which according to Washington state law rcw2a.605 605.010. You guys have broken that law by allowing our children to walk out of those closed doors on a closed campus. I also wanted to bring up that you guys used to threaten suspension when we didn't wear masks, but yet you're perfectly okay with these children
025going against law enforcement. What is that teaching them? Because honestly, what it looks like to me is you're teaching them prop to honestly just go along with propaganda and to fight the Constitution and the laws. So, let me ask you something. Have you guys taught these kids about the illegal immigrants that murdered legal citizens? Lake and Riley, Rachel Morren, do any of those ring a bell? We are required by state law to bring them somewhere where indoctrination has no limits. We are required to bring them somewhere where teachers express their beliefs. It is beyond disgusting that somewhere along the line, you guys took God out of schools and replaced LGBTQ plus community and political beliefs instead. It is sad that while typing this and preparing this speech, I had to filter out everything I truly
026want to say simply because the rules you guys have in place don't allow free speech. They protect your guys's feelings. So, I just want to let you guys know that little boy that's sitting right back there being kind of loud. Um, he is not going to be in your school district because I can't trust you guys to keep my son safe. I'm not going to be putting him in a school district wi with the unlimited indoctrination. And on top of that, you guys would rather fly all the different flags other than the American flag. I actually knew somebody who quite literally got in trouble for putting up an American flag over a pride flag. So, I'm just going to end my speech with this. You all, our next audience comment is a virtual comment. Anthony
027Johnson. He's online being promoted to panelist as we speak. >> Okay, Anthony, can you hear us? >> Uh, yes I can. Can you hear me? >> Hey, we can. You may go ahead. >> Okay. Um, hi, I'm Anthony Johnson. I'm an eighth grader at Mountain View Middle School. I was just having a question. Um, I was wondering what the district is doing to improve learning equipment like desks and chairs because I've personally seen a desk break in class and chairs as well. Um, I feel this is really important because it could be a risk for injuries like student falling, hitting their head or hurting their leg. Um, also a distraction from learning as I've seen u many students get distracted from like picking at desks that are falling apart and not doing too well in
028class and not paying attention. Um, I don't really have too much to say on that. That was just all I had. And, uh, thank you for your time. Appreciate you and have a great rest of your day. >> That ends our audience comment portion for this evening. Thank you. >> Let's see. Next, we have bond project update by the Marina Tierney and Matt G. Good evening, school board superintendent Dent. Thank Thank you. Um, I know in the agenda we kind of talk about an update, but we decided to kind of take the update and give a little lesson. There is no test at the end, so don't worry about that. But I know there's a lot of information. Don't be afraid. We want to talk about what GCCM actually does for the projects that we're
029going to be using it on and what you can expect as we go through this process. Kind of prepare all of us. So we'll talk about what it means for these projects. Currently we're using GCCM on the Bonnie Lake High School expansion, Sumar High phase 2 and to Holly Heights Elementary expan expansion. talk about how it affects schedule, budget, risk, and one of my favorites, highlight how we'll support local, small, minority, womenowned businesses that are in our community, and then also clarify the decisions for the board that will be coming in the future. So, real quickly, these three projects, Bake High School expansion, we're adding capacity, tying into the existing building all while school is in session. So there is an undertaking. Um Summer High's phase 2 also an existing campus complicated site lots of
030phasing around students and staff with this large second phase and the integration and prepping for phase three. And then to Holly Heights Elementary expansion, tight sight, adding capacity. We have enrollment pressures and so we want to hit certain targets with that building to impact and relieve some of our pressure that we have enrollment wise up in that area of the district. So why are we using this method? because it is available and it is the best method to meet the unique needs of these projects. We have tight deadlines, we have complex tie-ins, we have uh tight sites and what these sites do, they create issues. When you have students and construction on the same site, safety is huge. But it's also things from noises, smells, traffic, just all of that. So having that builder on
031the team helps us solve problems during design instead of waiting until, you know, designing a whole project, then putting it out to bid and hoping that the low bidder is going to be able to build it appropriately. So definitely gives us a lot more options. I'm gonna let Matt talk. Good evening. Um, I can take it. So, I'm going to talk about and we recognize this is kind of geeky, but it's important to understand because there's there's important implications with this this decision. It's a different enough process that we had to go to the state and get approval to do it this way. Um, what we typically do is DBB, design, bid, bid, build. And that's where we develop a set of plans, we put out in the market, and the lowest general contractor wins
032and delivers on that project. We don't get any input from them. We're guessing what's going to be best for the market and the best for marketing to subcontractors and hope that does well in the market. There's definitely a place for that. GCCM bit different. We select the contractor early based on a combination of qualifications and fees. They're brought into the project the team project team and they're giving constant feedback as the design's being developed and then we negotiate a maximum contract contract with them then deliver the project. This is especially useful in the areas Marina was talking about where there's complexity of tie-ins and active campus and traffic concerns, things of that nature. um where we're at. We got approval from the the PRC, which is the state body that approves us. We've gotten authorization
033from the board. We we're in progress or have procured a GCCM contractor for the three projects. Um and right now we're doing the pre-construction and cost modeling and figuring out all the details of how we're going to chop these projects up into smaller bites. After that, we're going to negotiate the contracts, start the work, and close it out. There are little steps in between. You'll see us come to you with something called a miniac where we want to get a package done early for timing purposes. And that'll just be a subset of the overall package. And when it's all said and done, it'll roll into what's called a TCC, total cost of construction. Doesn't matter. But the bottom line is it's a combination of the things we tell the general contractor we want to see
034in the general conditions. what kind of staff, what kind of full-time safety, like you wouldn't want to bid it out and they kind of short you on safety on a project where you got an active campus. So, we tell them, "We want a full-time safety. Put it in your price and they compete with the other GCs on that price who are bidding to become our GCCM." Um, and then of course the construction cost and their fee and they also compete on fee. Subcontracting is similar to to um to design bid build in that they're trying to get the lowest price to have the most attractive bid. In this case, it's public process. Lowest price wins. But the difference is we get the structure of the packages with the general contractor because they know the market
035to say, "Hey, this will do really well. If we break it up like this, we'll get a lot of interest. um if we take care of this blind spot then people aren't putting in money to add fluff to cover their risk or Maria's going to talk about um minority womenowned and local we can say you know what this is a small enough chunk we could break this off and get more local engagement for somebody who couldn't handle the whole scope so that's that's sort of the subcontracting methodology >> Matt okay so Matt talked about the bid package design and that is a real key and interesting part of GCCM. One of the things that I appreciate the most is the opportunity to really create um impact in our community with these projects. Our taxpayers are
036supporting these bonds and it's really amazing to have our taxpayers also benefit by having work opportunities. So when we work with the GCCM, one of the things that we talk to them about is how they approach their outreach and how they bring in these smaller firms to comm compete. Oh, I can talk really well today. Um, so as you can see, there are pieces that taking and breaking apart the big pack bid packages. Instead of saying, let's have an electrical contractor bid, they're going to break it down. So a low voltage contractor, somebody that's specialty maybe is in um fiber working with fiber and your the systems like what our tech uses and somebody else might be you know fire systems are usually generally one contractor. So there's different pieces though, but breaking them down
037so that local contractors can bid on them and they also work with those contractors so that they can fulfill the public works requirements, complete the appropriate paperwork, make sure that they're filling out their certified payrolls. There's a lot of little details and so they help and educate these contractors to help them be more competitive. And what we we've seen and observed in other districts is that you take and and bring these contractors along and then they can compete in the future after the project is over. They've gained experience and ability to grow their business and compete as well. And then the big piece too is then we come back and report on that because I think it's really important to show the community what the effect of that is on the community. So that will
038be a piece as well that we will come back and report about. Next slide. Oh, perfect. You read my mind. So I think both Matt and I have talked about long lead items and these miniaaxs, you know, things like electrical switch gear, some of the mechanical units, the structural steel since elevators. Oh my gosh, elevators. There are things that since co It's just it's part of doing business is planning for these things that are taking an inordinately long amount of time to to source. And so what this allows us to do is to put together a package that can be bid ahead of time as soon as we've got the structural steel. Today we were talking about structural steel package and getting that out two or three months ahead of time so that you kind
039of force a just in time delivery method so that when you are ready for that structural steel it's already developed. is showing up on site and we can keep rolling instead of that low bid package where okay you've been awarded the contract now you go out and try and source everything and some of those things may be so far down the line that you have to come up with an alternate plan to try and keep busy in the interim >> one of the one of the big drivers was working on occupied campuses um which is what converted me I've always been a design bid build guy because I felt like it gave you the lowest price, but what it doesn't really consider is risk to the district because what's the point of cost if a
040student gets hurt in the process that or teacher or anybody that's bad. This allows us to work with the architect and the contractor and figure out how are we going to drop people off? How are we not going to create more traffic in front of panther cubs? Like just we're actually going through these details every week with all these parties and making sure we're setting it up for the minimal amount of pain. There's still always pain with construction, but this minimizes the pain and reduces the risk more importantly. And you know, we do this before the work is priced. So when we go to contract with the contractor, they can't come back and say, "I didn't know you were expecting us to have all this traffic control." No, you helped us develop the plan. You
041priced the plan. We agreed. So it reduces the change orders in those areas later on. Um, what stays the same, as I mentioned, you still do the public ripen reads of the subcontracts. there's still prevailing wage and all the transparency requirements. Um it's almost all rewarded to the lowest responsive bidder at the subcontract level. We're still very much in control of the process as opposed to say um design build, not design bid build, but design build where we have no control. This is like the opposite. We have total control. You entrust us and allows us the control to deliver for the district and of course all the auditing and and public records. Um, so it's you again, right? >> We're tag teaming and dancing tonight. It's kind of fun. Yeah, exactly. So, what is the
042board's role from here? Well, similar to normal in design, bid build. I mean, yes, you're going to approve who we hire for our GCs. We bring that to you to approve those contracts and approve those hires. you approve the MAC, that maximum allowable construction cost and the total contract cost for each project. Those will come to the board for approval. When we do an early miniac, an early bid package, those will also come to the board for approval. And of course, we want you to hold us accountable for budget schedule and for our participation outcomes. Again, that that involvement of the local contractors, the small womenowned and minority and veteranowned businesses, that's really important. So, we want to have that accountability with the board that we're meeting those goals and we will update you on
043those things as we go through this. And I'm going to let Matt wrap up. >> Okay, we should be the same same height. >> Um, how how we're going to measure success, it's it's pretty simple. Uh we want to be on time. We want to come in under the MAC. And we want absolute safety for our students, staff, and community, get good participation from smaller businesses, and have people like the projects when they're done. We've sort of learned that lesson. We finished a project we thought was good, and people didn't love it or had complaints. And we're paying very close attention to those things. Um now, I will say not every project is going to come in under the MAC, but a lot of them will. Some will go over. The goal is to be
044substantially under the overall bond MAC in the end so money can be, you know, used for other district capital needs. Um, and again, I wasn't a proponent of this method until I got to really learn it and understand it. And now being a part of it, it was absolutely the right decision. We're not doing to Holly Middle School this method cuz it's on its own. There's no houses, there's no students, there's no staffs. perfect for design bid build which is still a great solution but GCCM is right for these three projects and I wish you could be part of the teams and see our conversations because it's it's going really well questions >> thank you for that um that's very helpful I one question our bond oversight committee do they have any role in any
045of those discussions or pieces there >> they well they're always informed at our regular BOC meetings, but also we invited them like a representative member to sit in at both the architect selection and the general contractor selection process so they could see that it was very open and transparent above board. So they're informed and >> participating. They're not voting members, but they're participating. >> That's great. Thank you for that. >> You're welcome. >> Thank you. I'm sorry. I'll walk away to hold the paper. Okay. Resolution number 132526.
