001My name 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. >> Our dear heavenly father, we thank thee so much for the many blessings that thou has bestowed upon us. We thank you so much for this opportunity to meet and hire these new teachers and and personnel. We ask that thy blessing will be upon them all, that they will be able to bless the lives of the children that are in our district. We ask a blessing too upon Shannon and her family at this time and as they grieve that you will bring comfort to their hearts. We ask dear heavenly father that you will continue to bless us. Help us to make wise decisions as we
002um serve here in the school district. And we say these things humbly in Jesus name. Amen. >> Amen. >> Thank you. >> We do have a quorum. So we'll call this meeting of July 25th, 2025 to order. >> And so um if everybody knows and I hopefully everybody's got an agenda put them up there. So we're going to move down to the actual transfer and personnel requests and the lists are up there too. But um I did want to tell the board and and I think you know with everybody that's here um I'm just going to give you my philosophy and the process that should take place. Okay. So in this coming year um I'll share with the board more of I've set a deadline by December we've got to get our salary schedules fixed.
003And so um that's the goal by December. So the process should be we have those ready to go in December. January is my eval and hopefully rehire and then February is admin. Um the directors um March is classified and um April is certifi I mean certified. No, that's it backwards. So certified then classified. So by then we have everybody set ready to go and as we're going through that then the finance office and HR with Shannon then can have those contracts all ready to go. So, by the time school's about out, y'all, traditionally, everywhere I've been, we've got 98 95% of our hiring done because the pool's a lot larger than in the spring, you know, and you know, we we're hiring some quality people, but the pool shrinks the longer you wait. >> And
004so, that's the plan and the process that should take place for us to be successful and us to be able to do that. So, um, I just wanted to let the board know and let everybody know that's the plan and process that we we'll we're going to get in place for everybody. Okay. So, I'll leave it at that. So, so about the personnel, the resignations, transfers, and hires or any questions from the board? >> Um, I just have a question about the transfer as far as did we let everybody know that there was going to be an O.
