003proceed Next is the general purpose one for one and cafeteria one for three budget amendments So for members in front of you you have the amendments to Amy and her team put together along with the directors This is the part we balance out the budget or expenditures Moving money to ensure that it does not exceed 100% So there there are several moves that had to be done But Amy is here and is prepared to answer your questions. The next step was once you approve the County Commission So we can close out the year There was one That I put in the wrong call center so put in 270 and it should have been too many So if you notice that one, it's it's strictly just moving It's a call center. So I moved it all
004out of that one to put it right in with the next call So that one did look a little odd But you'll notice they all balanced out We worked many hours trying to make sure that where we moved it from and where we moved it to balance I have a question. What about the money to the IRS? To finish up this year. So the money to IRS as I said Say here that money is part of a so there were taxes that were not paid appropriately Then there were penalties and interest that were put on top that they go back So when we started what's that years you said that before 2019 it was there was there is no indication from the IRS Prior to 2019 how many events there were but they would only
005give us a singular amount for 2019 saying this happened in the past. So we're gonna search So there's the original missed quarterly taxes not being paid because of errors and then there's the Penalties and the fines and the interest of anyway so as we looked as to what our course of actions were after we he was put onto the Comptroller's findings. So then we started looking at where our options Well, we realized this was not out of malice somebody was trying to hide money not pay the money It was out of change in leadership change in understanding how to pay those taxes That's when we realized we were We had the opportunity to file for an abatement For those taxes so reached out to Sam Sam turned it over to a tax attorney in his
006office And he filed the IRS protocol up and he said 100% of the cases that look like ours the abatements are provided so that we don't have to pay So it has been applied for with our term that I have not been given word whether or not the IRS has But that was the guidance we were given Hopefully there's not the only thing I think was brought mechanic mission meaning is Fee to pay the attorney here. Absolutely for $160,000 We'll pay the attorney to do that because he and I talked nothing You the only way the IRS communicates with us is with the phone or Facts or may we don't even have taxes So when you're on the phone with the IRS, it is about a two-hour wait to actually speak to you So we
007wanted to make sure we got it right the first time and that's why we went around So they answer your question. Hopefully there is no bill today So there's a possibility of the payment. When was this applied for? We started having contact with the attorney Any other questions with the general purpose budget and cafeteria budget amendments 5100 there's just a typo on that one for the David For page It just should be Others on a negative only. Yeah He said she And it won't work with the internet It would use it can be used as a But this other fax machine they're the only entity that we dealt with And the United States post out they will not be so that's I took a picture Jody let's do roll call Haine offering Yes Jones. Yes
008Neil Snyder Winter next is the health and wellness textbook acceptance and purchase vote So in our last four meeting board members explained the process of adopting you textbook material The teachers to review make a recommendation Parents to also make recommendation for us to open it up for community comments, which we also Tara helped lead up that charge of going through the process So tonight we are bringing to you the health smart digital curriculum to be considered and hopefully approved there is here chicken Answer any questions that you might have about that process, but we were doing a digital access so the digital access be on the Tablets that they have and yeah, it's a tile on the clever Portal that we use for all of our curriculum and if I recall correctly the cost of
009the digital access is Not any cheaper than the actual free, but it is it's not much because you're really thankful the intellectual property Can a student access that? The teacher can assign Assignments and they're able to access their son come set up at the Google Classroom They have an option that has Google Classroom, but the government told me that there was no sense in extra money if the teacher could assign assignment and they could So this is for both the 2819 and then the 20,000 20,000 for the eight-year purchase For the eight and a lot did change Past year used to be a six-year process. I believe there was a realization Yes Yes, Neil Schneider Windsor yes Nexus consolidated funding approval members in the past our CFA consolidated funding It was done strictly by the
010board chair But however policy has changed in our largely credit minor. It now requires the board to Review and approve our funding application I had sent with a couple of paragraphs explaining what consolidated funding application is Lee do you want to tell them whether it is that are actually voting on? so we included a copy of a leading packet, but The consolidated funding application includes IDA. So it's it's all federal money total one two and five basically and they are they each Each subject area has like a lot of stipulations on it, but and then idea So we use this money for a variety of things, but of course we have to stick to the guidelines It's not just you can buy purchasing things so far in the past I mean we have to take
011care of our ESL students homeless foster care migrant all those but also parent-family engagement technology we Interventionist and Instructional coaches kids first initiative curriculum anything to make the school better especially since we're in a part of the area So the process has always been the same Leo whoever's position is available to explain the money that's passing through from the federal state to here The difference is now then it has to appear in the board minutes and there has to be so dealing with money typically Right you just show that it is in the minutes and that you are approving and that we will abide by the guidance All of it yes Homera Jones yes Neil yes Schneider and winter Yes, all right next is out of state and overnight field trips for the 26 27th
012school year review and vote so Mike has done a great job being proactive looking at next year's schedule of Athletic events and so including your packet are a long list out of state tournaments and the last one also involves and trips and was part of that policy Requires the board to and Mike's here to answer any questions Most of these own here just our normal playing for county for the city Like dr. Burton said the only thing that's kind of bigger than added our baseball team got invited to the Gulf Coast Classic During spring break next March 32 teams from across the country really really good teams good talent That goes down place for a week. We've got before I think the last time coach Prince and Jimmy Dale were the coaches Yeah, let us
013have been down there It's a good time for our kids a little break good little getaway, but they play some really really good baseball That's good things down there. Well listen at our team's been pretty good in the next few years Especially in the spring and what he said that wouldn't be overnight me and right now Look at transportation would be saving the district and their teams and we got carpooling with parents and coaches leaving together Just gotta get it early. I know it's not much early, but look at condo But everything else is just our normal almost up From the out-of-state and over field trips for Motion made by joining Second made by Vivian all in favor say aye Any impose a no motion carry to Approve the out-of-state overnight field trips for the
01426 27th school year. Thank you. Maybe one or two more come January February we have to add any more base for softball games with this year Next is the McKinstry update So warmers you recall before we can see we could actually start the demolition part there had to be an abatement and So and that actually had to be through a separate contract outside of the history which that has to do with what they told me the state law and also with our Insurance so a separate third-party company has been at Margaret Newton and they have completed the abatement If you've ever had any dealings with an abatement whether it's talking about the lead paint test We have to wear asbestos there has to be an air test currently the air test the air sample has
015been submitted and As of today, so now we're just waiting for the return and if it is up in normal ratings then tension So you have a Summary from Paul McKinstry where we are, but everything is set in motion Those guys Cleaned it all out. It's just a question of an air test you drove by there last week. You would have seen it Removed is this gonna cost any extra or is this a It was a part of the original cost and we had to cut a separate check I asked that question at the board meeting and I remember doing it's funny All of it but on the books it's gonna be separate not falling under the professional services The gentleman from the Company that did the abatement He said I have to read this
016out loud to you Word to word and so I said, okay, go ahead And he did the whole thing about the dangers and what they were removing and I've got to the end I said You did not tell me what I thought you were gonna tell me. So why is that said everything you just said was about Lead based paint. He said yes, sir. I said I was not expecting to tell me But I thought the reason we get sick from lead-based paint is if you consumed it. He said well, that's probably right Yes, best. He said I don't have to read a statement So I signed his document saying I heard a show about lead-based paint and don't consume Anyway, so they like some of the mock-ups of the designs They came by and
017got I guess it's two weeks ago your tiles that were selected and colors so they're ready to start work Spot but summer camp summer program. I mean third graders did we have it had to Where they would be in third grade? Remember it was 13 or 17 When is the retest we're gonna start my name Monday and Tuesday Of course they have the option of signing up for tutoring this upcoming year in lieu of a lot of them want to do both Throughout the school year after the instructions some of them want to do both so then that was their choice, you know Just do two green Scott was there anything that you want to add that's going on in your building? Well summer school They want to say that we wrapped up the school
018year with our awards for third through fifth and sixth seventh Motion and Maybe didn't get to come to the first awards and stuff that we did a Lot of positive comments about our teachers and about our kids and the way direction that we're going. So I think that's awesome Before that we did have an ants for the middle school I wasn't sure how that was gonna go and they were amazing So I'm really glad to report that you because you never know how dances go with middle school kids I Might have done some on the stage by myself without people watching but yeah, I love to dance by the way That's something I love music. So I had a good time. I really did It was the quickest to the heart of the whole semester.
019I think but it was a lot of fun And then you know before that we sent kids on field trips every grade went somewhere in Grand Park City or Okinaw and Irishburg and now I get times and we just did a lot of fun stuff I just want to say thank you for allowing me to be friend for you I didn't know how to do still along with it, but I show up every day I promise I did my best and the teachers do their best and then today, you know, you just go home and say Hey, I'm gonna do a little better I just want to thank you. Don't convert in any more control. I used to be great job this year I love that You have one position left the film well Sort
020of we had our GI So we're gonna feel that and it could potentially be an internal person Since we have had any external people actually apply right so we do that would open another spot at this point Yes, there's one but it's probably gonna turn it so is that a fifth grade? It would is fifth grade right now and then potentially could be a middle school math or another and I think the other Certified position is that Margaret? Is the only Positions that are left to be filled for the certified position summer is early Thank you Business Just a couple of things.
