001recording. Okay. >> Okay. We'll go ahead and call this meeting to order. It is 604. Welcome everyone. Please rise for the pledge of allegiance. >> I pledge 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. >> Thank you all. Please be seated. I do need a motion to approve tonight's agenda. So move second. >> We have a motion and a second. All in favor say I. >> I. >> Any opposed? >> Hearing none. The motion carries. Um I would like to uh remind everyone that uh these board meetings are our business meetings that are held in public and they are not public board meetings. The board is governed by Idaho Code Title 74 and Title
00233, Chapter 5 of the Idaho Code and the Idaho Administrative Procedures Act or IDAPA. And we do follow district policies. First is public input. We have Bat Masterson uh regarding student safety on school buses. This will be pretty quick. Uh, my name is Bat Masterson. I live at 89 East Grimmington Road in Apple. I've been a driver for Lakeland for 7 years and I'm here tonight to direct your attentions to some frequent safety violations that occur on the school buses without correction. This has been the worst driving year for safety violations I've ever witnessed with no corrective action and I only drive the trips. So that kind of gives you a clue of what kind of audience I'm dealing with. This year I've had students on athletic trips with coaches on the buses walk around
003while driving down the highway. Students lay down on the buses to take a nap in the floor. Three or four weeks ago, I had a student jump out the emergency room door two days after the kid was killed on the highway from another bus that the door was left open. And that wasn't in our district, thank God, but mine was in our district. There's very strict rules about kids getting out of that door. Even when we do evacuation drills, we don't allow the kids to jump out. They have to be assisted. The bus is high enough that a kid could break their leg, break their ankle jumping out of there. One coach was standing probably 30 feet from another one was on the bus. No one did anything about it. No one would tell me
004who it was. The only reason I knew somebody did it is because when the door was open, it locked open and the kid couldn't figure out how to close it. I brought this to the attention of several people. Nobody did a thing about it. Well, the what you get out of the coaches, the athletic directors, the supervisor of the transportation department, and apparently the board cuz she at least that's where the blame goes. Um, well, it only happened this one time. We'll let it go. It only takes one time. It only takes one time. And if you're not going to hold these kids, these are adults, hold them accountable. The best kids you have on athletic trips are the little kids. you know, they think it's fun. They're going someplace new. The athletes don't. And
005if that's what's representing our school district, man, we've made some bad choices. Um, I was told by the supervisor of the transportation department that she can only do what's within her realm or scope of practice. Well, it's news to me that safety issues is not within the realm of a transportation supervisor. These issues need to be addressed. It's very clear that the school district will not support the drivers when something like this happens. I guarantee you that kid broke his leg coming off that bus, I'd have been held accountable. Not the district, not the board, and I'd have been subject to a lawsuit. And you know what? I'm 78 years old. I've lived my life. I did this as a favor to Jess Denhard because she used to work for me and when she asked
006me to come and help her, I was willing to do it years ago. But I am not going to be the subject of a lawsuit. I'm not going to be the defendant in a lawsuit against the school district. So with that being said, you can have this letter as my designation. >> Thank you. Is there any other public input that didn't have a chance to fill out the form? No. Okay, we will move on to the reports. We have the superintendent report. Do we have any conversations, discussions, or anything with regard to the superintendent's report? I do appreciate the report you gave, Jake. It was very >> Thank you. >> uh thorough and exciting to see where we're headed for this next year. >> Good. Thank you. >> You're welcome. Anything on the financial reports?
007I did have one question I would like to ask. Um, well, I appreciate all the documentation. Can we kind of chunk it out? Like the um everything with re respect to the uh shy bond. Could that have been its own PDF and then the financials? Just it's a lot for a patron to have to scroll through when they're trying to figure out what we're presenting. Would that be an option for next time? >> Yes. Okay. I will work on how to do that for you. Jessica Grant, chief finance officer. Um, when I prepared these, would you would like it as a separate report because I've I've been told that I have to make sure that they're all numbered correctly and so I'm just trying to figure out how you would like them there. It's such
008a big report because I've been told that I have to number all my pages. >> Well, what was in the front is is all I'm simply asking if that could have been its own separate PDF. That's all >> because that wasn't your financial report. That was information you were giving us with respect to the shity bond, >> right? But I mean the majority of this report is ad hoc reports. Um so I'm just I guess asking how you would like me to number them because I've been chastised for not having them numbered it correctly in the past. >> Okay. >> I'm totally fine to do it. They just asking how you would like them presented as a separate item or >> I guess if you're 124 page report that's supposed to be your financial report
009if there's um supplemental information that you're providing us such as information on the shy bond if that could be its own PDF and I suppose you would number those pages one through whatever they are And then your financial documents would be numbered one through whatever they are. Is that >> Yes. >> Is a separate tab. >> Separate report. >> Yeah. Just two PDFs. Um okay. Um you mentioned something during the budget hearing. I got to scroll down. I don't remember what page number it was. There it is. Um, I believe it's uh there wasn't a report on fund 27 242, which I believe is the literacy fund, and you said something that we're walking away from that or that it's it's no longer we're not going to have that. I was wondering if we have
010funding there this year, why are we not reporting on it? >> There's no funding there this year. There's nothing there. >> No, it was rocked into the general fund. Okay. Um the reason it was included in the board packet is there was activity in that fund in FY25. Um and so going forward after this year there won't be that activity. Um because we didn't [clears throat] have activity in FY26. We won't have activity in FY27. I prepare prepare like a three-year look at the district financials when I present the budget hearing. So next year it'll be FY26 with the FY27 budget and then proposed FY28. >> So it'll drop off. So, the same thing with the bond uh fund 310. That won't show next year either because we won't have a bond or any activity
011in that account potentially. >> Right. Okay. That was my only question on it. >> No problem. >> Anybody else have any other >> help? No. >> Looks good. >> Thank you. >> On the facilities report, >> any questions, comments, or conversations to be had? John Brown is a mess right now. Just a mess. >> It's a >> Oh, it's getting redone. >> That's all. >> It's intended to be a mess. >> It's got to get worse before it gets >> Just checking. Just checking. >> Have you been in >> just messing around? >> Everybody settle down. >> Everybody's talking about the mess. >> They're moving fast though. This looks good. >> Yeah, it's good to see all that being done. fairly intact. >> Any questions or comments on the federal program director's report? >> I
012do not. >> No. >> Okay. And she's not here. Okay. I was just curious on the um manual if it's going to be for 26. I I wasn't sure what was if that was the correct one that was supposed to have been linked in or not. Do you know, Jack? >> Well, let me check >> because it's being I I guess adopted this year for next year, but it was 24 lined out and see what I'm saying? >> Yeah, I'm not will be updated in 26. >> Okay. >> On the tab there, right after the tab >> to be updated and it effect July 1st, 2026. I'm not sure if that link is exactly the correct one. I do know that um in fact I believe that that was in director Badger's previous report as
013well. >> Okay. >> Um so that information might be found there. But I do know that there is a new manual for 62 school year. >> Perfect. Anything on the technology reports or reports? >> Nope. >> And did we confirm um Jake, are the directors preparing these reports? >> Yes. >> Okay. Anything [cough] [clears throat] on nutrition services? No, it's good to see the um the fluctuations in participation um kind of spelled out for us so that we know what's happening with that with that program especially since >> we are slowly losing or our funding is declining in that in that fund. in that program. So, it is good to see this good information, >> right? >> I know this this is something that has been brought to the board's attention previously as well, but
014Char has really done an outstanding job in steadily increasing um uh his numbers month over month with meals served. Fantastic. >> He's done a great job modifying the menus and getting student feedback and um really supporting that. the transportation department. Any I think Becky uh Craig Johnson is is a repeat star at the state bus rodeo. >> Yeah, >> that's great that she's still with us. Um, with respect to the public comment we had, I would like a little bit of understanding with um, our safety and what we're doing. >> Yeah. >> Um, because that is very concerning. >> Yeah. The the board can expect a follow-up um, very shortly. >> Okay. >> Um, I also expect that will be addressed in the next monthly board report as well. >> I I think that would
015be a component that needs to be added to the report. um safety issues and concerns or things that have [laughter] transpired with safety within the report. >> Okay, >> got it. >> Thank you. >> All right, moving on to the consent agenda. We have the minutes of the previous meeting, minutes of the subcommittee meeting, HR items, and the bills list. Um, do we have any comments on the minutes of the previous meeting? I do need to point out that it wasn't heard at the May 20th meeting um that I appeared remotely on the one action item for the course for Tiger Stripes. Um, I abstained. I did not vote on that. And so I'm just calling that out because it wasn't called out in the meeting that I was abstaining. >> Oh, >> and but
016it is in the minutes. >> Sure. >> Because I did make note of that, but >> Gotcha. >> It should have been called out in the meeting and it was not. Are there any other comments or conversations for the minutes? >> I guess. No. >> Okay. What about the HR items? >> Nope. >> Okay. Um the bills list. Not this time. So I will move to approve the consent agenda as presented with the exception of the two items or the items mentioned by Michelle. >> The abstain is in there. >> H >> the abstain is in the minutes. I do have it accurately reflected in the minutes. It just wasn't called out when trustee Gryom >> was announcing how many. Okay. >> Yeah. Okay. >> So there are no corrections to the minutes. I >>
017correct. Okay. Gotcha. >> Holding myself accountable. >> Say it out loud. >> Yep. >> Okay. So, we have a motion on the floor. >> A second. >> We have a motion and a second. All in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? Hearing? None. The motion carries. Moving on to the action items. [clears throat] First item is the overnight trip for the LHS uh girls basketball team. um which is coming up here in a >> by the weekend. [laughter] >> Yeah, it's it it's imminent for sure. [clears throat] Um this if you don't mind just shedding some light on this situation >> please. Um, this is a unique situation because this trip has taken place, I mean, in in my understanding, historically for years in the past at both high schools, uh, to various locations
018for skills camps in the summertime. >> It is privately fundraised for, as I think it's indicated in here. >> Um, one difference though is that in the past it has not been considered a kind of a quote unquote school sponsored trip as an official trip of the basketball team. Um, and so they did not use district transportation or seek approval for the travel because it was just all self-transport. The parents got together, they did not need our permission. Um, they do need district transportation for this trip or they at least are requesting it. And so we kind of find ourselves in this situation where we're not just approving the trip, we're also looking at a bigger situation of are we now approving and allowing travel for our sports teams outside of the season. Um because
019that is what we typically have. I don't want to use the word restricted, but that's typically how we've operated in the past and then they've just been on their own outside of those seasons. So, um I I think that's something that I would love the board's direction on. Um or I'd love to be a part of the conversation as well, but I'd love to hear what you all think about that. >> So, they want to use the activity bus. >> They do. >> So, they're paying for the gas >> and you don't need a driver, right? Correct. >> Correct. >> So, I don't have a problem with it. The other [clears throat] kind of complicating factor and um forgive me that I'm fuzzy on the details but I know earlier this year the board had
020a conversation about the range of the activity buses like for this particular trip. This is this is >> Portland. >> Yeah. >> Western. >> But they've taken them to Boise too. >> Correct. And so we just want some clarification on >> but at least that's instate. >> Yeah. And if they're going to Boise, it's usually because of a state tournament, not a outofstate. >> It was a summer. >> I forgot what it was last year because it was one of the first trips they took it and it was I can't remember what it was. It's a long time ago. >> So, the further we go, we do run into some considerations. Um, it's it's possible to do those longer trips, but our drivers, whether they're coaches or actual bus drivers, are held accountable to the
021same maximum number of drive hours, >> right? >> And so, we would probably need to develop some protocols and some systems around >> ensuring that coaches know that they have to tag out after a certain number of hours >> of hours on the road. >> Um, I'm I'm a little bit out of my depth here, so I'm going to look at Jess because she knows more about these rules. We're already in the process of including that in the activity bus um handbook that we have, the protocol that we have. Uh with these drivers being nonCDL holders, uh we've been advised by insurance to actually have them drive less than a CDL driver is allowed to drive. So a maximum of eight hours in a day um with the half an hour break every four hours.
022Um and so that's stuff that we're building into the protocol. We already have a protocol in place. We're just including this information in their um based on the advicement of our insurance agent. Um it's a little bit tricky um especially with it going out of state uh their stance on it is if the board has approved it, it's fine. Um another consideration with these activity buses, they're not allowed to go over 65 miles an hour. they're capable of going over 65 miles an hour, but per transportation guidelines for a vehicle of that type, especially if you're transporting students, um they're they should be going over 65 miles an hour. Um so that does make the trips take a little bit longer than if you were to drive it in your personal vehicle. Um and so
023that's another thing that we're putting into the protocol is just making sure they're trained on that, but to make sure that they're they're doing that. Um it'll be part of the trip sign off as well when they check the bus out and do their pre-trip that they're signing off on all of this as well. Um so insurance as as long as the board has approved the trip it it's allowed um they do recommend since it's not part of season and stuff just having um that acknowledgement from the students um that they're participating um in that trip since it's not part of a season. So >> yeah, and and even more so, it's not even within the school year. >> Y >> and those are not rostered students for the school district right now. >> Um
024and Trusty Quimby, I think you were thinking potentially about the softball trip. Um they had asked to take the buses to Utah. >> Yeah, >> the board decided because it was St. George, that was quite a drive. The board decided not to allow that activity that far. >> Um we've kind of been looking at it. It was 14 hours. Yeah. To St. George. Um, so we've been looking at kind of a 6 to 8 hour. >> Yeah. >> At 65 miles an hour >> um range for those is what we're recommending. Um, obviously anything that is an overnight trip and have a state trip gets approved by the board >> before anybody goes. So >> is Portland at 65 miles an hour with at least two half hour breaks? >> They can they can do
025>> six hours. six hours to Portland [clears throat] or >> seven hours to Boise. >> Yeah. So they they will it will take more than six hours to get there. Um but yes, with the two coaches on the bus, they should be within the threshold that we're setting in the protocol based on the the insurance recommendation and then what's in guidelines for public transportation. >> Right. So both coaches can drive >> both both of them have have their we require anybody who's driving the activity bus to get their DOT physical. >> Um so they do have the DOT physical and then they're trained by our transfer department >> and both of these coaches >> both of these coaches have that. Yes. >> Okay. So this would obviously set precedent moving forward. Um, I mean, the
026vast majority, if not all of our athletic teams have skills camps and trainings and things that they travel to out of season, but they usually just do it on their own. So, that's something to consider as well is that um we like to support those activities, but we also know that we might be inundated with right more of these trips. I >> I don't know. I think as long as they get preapproval, you know, kind of like an overnight trip or whatever. Yeah. Are they renting the bus from the school, the activity bus or from the district? >> Uh, I don't know if the agreement would be a rental agreement, but they would have access to it and they would reimburse the district for fuel out of their fundraised. >> Okay. >> Uh, amount of
027money >> because it would be if the board approves it, it is a school sponsored event, a district sponsored event, they would not have to rent it. Um, they're using it as um part of the district, >> but they're paying for gas and all that. >> Yeah. Yeah. Are they paying for gas or are they paying much? >> They're paying for gas. Um but that because it's not a rental and that's what we would do for any other sports team. Um is just the gas. >> It would just be like and I apologize. I don't want to say just the gas. There is a uh I believe the board I can bring it back just to remind you but the board had approved what we charge for sports trips and what we charge for field
028trips um based on the reimbursement we get from the state. We obviously get no reimbursement from activity bus usage um at all because it's sports trips and they don't reimburse that. But we have a formula that does include just a little bit more for um if they're if they're staying in town. It includes a little bit more than just the cost of the gas so that it covers [snorts] the wear and tear on the vehicle as well for potential replacement in the future. >> Does this open the district up for any form of liability? If you're telling me that these aren't um >> enrolled students or rostered students for this team. I think the way around that is it's a board approved trip as well as um having some sort of an agreement before the
029trip starts that these student athletes are signing off that they it's out of season and they're agreeing to certain standards and they understand that they're going to this camp with a permission slip like we would do for any other field trip. >> And we did get clarification specifically on that. That was one of the questions I did ask our insurance um person specifically like because it is summer um if the board approves it and the board is aware of it. Um, these coaches are technically district employees. Um, and the students are cars. It's just out of typical season. And so, as long as the board approves it, it is an approved trip. We would be okay. >> We would be covered under our district insurance for that trip. Are the are the students um age
030of majority can they can they sign a contract? >> No, it would be a parent on their behalf. >> I thought you said the students would >> Yeah. Yeah. I I misspoke. You're right. I should have clarified that it would really be for their parents. Okay. They didn't identify. So they didn't say how many chaperones are going, but they did list two names. Is the assumption that there's only two chaperones going. >> Okay. Two coaches. >> I believe that there are two coaches attending. >> Okay. Yeah. >> The boys are all It's all the same. No co M is Portland. Do they have security? [clears throat] >> I move to approve it. >> I'll second. >> We have a motion and a second. All in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? Hearing? None. Motion
031carries. Uh, next we have the fall sports schedule. We have Timberlakes volleyball schedule and Timberlakes cross country schedule. Um, and these are both, I believe, for middle school. Yes. Okay. Any comments, conversations need to be had on the schedules? >> Nope. I appreciate that they're doing it with the forethought of getting it done before it's a we got to get this done right now [laughter] >> before they've already started. >> Yeah, I move to approve both the volleyball and cross country schedules. >> I'll second that. We have a motion and a second. All in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? Hearing none, the motion carries. Moving on to student clubs, we have the Rampage Boxing Club. >> Yeah, I want to acknowledge uh an oversight that I made here. Um I was not aware
032or [snorts] not attentive to the fact that there is an actual application for this and so I apologize that that >> um I I did not realize to double back and require that of the student. >> Okay. Um otherwise looking at um looking at the board policy this did follow the chain of of command and protocol in every other way. Um so there there is a group of students here at Timberlake High School that would like to set up a boxing club. Um this is not a quote unquote school sponsored club with a faculty advisor. um it would just be a club associated with the school. Um I respect that the young men who were pursuing this club really really did some due diligence and put together some documents that I thought were were fairly
033thorough. Um the bottom line is that we are very concerned about liability to the school district just because of the nature of this activity. um in the fact that it is not a school sponsored club gets us even further away from um you know having having a coach or an expert that's on staff who would be able to guide this process. And so it is my recommendation after speaking with our insurance uh to not approve this club. Um, we certainly want to encourage these boys to pursue this in a safe way on their own and we can steer them could steer them towards our facility use policy even um and and certainly the the decision remains with the board, but it is not our recommendation to approve. >> Well, we can't even have smokers anymore
034>> because of liability. >> Do you want to explain a smoker? I don't think everybody knows what that is. set up a boxing ring in the gym for a fundraiser and let the kids go at it. >> We cannot do that. >> That's probably a good thing, [laughter] Dave. >> That's what we used to do. >> Yeah, >> exactly. >> You got a problem? Duke it out. >> I will. >> Yeah, I thank you for asking. I was just going to look until [laughter] I >> But I also believe that um pursuant to our policy, clubs have to be sponsored. So if this one is not sponsored, I don't think that it should have even come before the board. >> My understanding of the policy and and again I I could be mistaken, I apologize
035if I am, was that there there is a category of just club that is not school sponsored. Um I don't think that that is very common at all. Um >> I believe that there is still the category in the >> in the policy. >> Well, it's the policy says club shall mean a sponsored club of students and then sponsored club shall mean a club which is directly under the sponsorship direction and control of the school. Um because we went to we went away from I mean everything has to be sponsored by the school district >> so that we have more say in >> right because >> the oversight of >> when the clubs came under review it was because buildings didn't even know what clubs were going on in their building >> because there was
036no procedure there were no applications although So the policy asked for applications, it just we we had to kind of rein it in. >> Sure. >> And in doing so, the board determined that it would be in the best interest of the district to have sponsored clubs. >> That makes a lot of sense. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Well, um it, you know, in that case, I I'm I'm glad that we worked that out. Uh >> yeah. So given that there is no sponsorship nor application um we would not I I just there's no action to be taken. >> Okay. Okay. Um I do want the board to know and hear from me that I'll follow up personally with these young men and Okay. I I take it seriously that they did a lot of work
037to get to this point and so we'll definitely honor that. But >> Okay. >> Um yeah, thank you for the direction. >> You're welcome. Okay. Next is the FCA club and for future I would request that the applications be provided with the um request because we do we go through the application. >> Okay. Okay. >> Absolutely. Um, I will say I was aware that the FCA club that is revisited from earlier in the year, I was aware that it was on the agenda. Um, I have not been a part of any of the conversation to bring it back to the board. >> Um, and so if there is something that was missed there, I I am unaware of >> it never came before the board. The meeting it was supposed to come at, that meeting
038was cancelled and then it was it went into the [laughter] abyss either. And so >> uh the principal thought the club had been approved because that's what prior administration had said. Unfortunately, the board had never it was neveration. >> Okay. >> So I will move to on this one. I will move to table this until we h until we have the >> application. Okay. >> That outlines the scope and all that state standards. >> So we have a motion and a second by Dave. All in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? Hearing none, the motion carries. Moving on to the supplemental materials. There is a lot of um concern for these books. Are these new books coming in or are these books that are um part of the because I thought we made it
039through all the curriculum books. So, these are new books coming into the district. >> No, these these are books that are I believe already in our school libraries. um but they have not been used as part of a like coursework at this point and so uh a couple of individuals are requesting access to these books for part of their syllabus um at the middle school level. >> Okay. any conversation we'd like to have on this? And it is your recommendation that the online safety presentation only be presented to the students by SRS. >> Correct. Okay. Um, one one other thing that I failed to put in the recommendation that I would like to include in that requirement is that those would be optin um courses. >> Yes. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> And when would
040they be presented? I mean would it >> um so they would be presented an SRO would coordinate with their building principal to put together essentially like a special class or a program that would happen one time throughout the school year. Um, and so I don't want to say on an as needed basis because it would probably be annual, okay? >> But it's not like um I don't want to give the impression that it would be a regular course like the DARE program is a regular 8-week course that happens in the same sequence every year, >> right? >> Um, this would be a one presentation. >> Um, >> and would this be with the SRO's and the ADSS >> or just SRO's? >> The there are certain SRO's that are certified to teach this specifically. >>
041Okay. Yeah, >> that's good to hear. >> Yeah. >> Um, I do want to note I brought all of the materials to the board for approval. I think that they are all great to add to our catalog just for access under those conditions that were already mentioned. Um, the only level that is actually planning to use the materials at this point is just high school so far. >> Okay. For the internet safety. >> Yes. >> Okay. just the high school. Is that what we said? >> Only the high school is actually planning to use it so far. But since we're asking for that piece, um I chose to include the whole all of the programming that was a part of that um program for lack of a better word. Do we have do we currently
042have um materials of this type for online safety for any of our students? Do we give them any kind of internet safety when they're using our Chromebooks or what are we what are we doing? >> We do give them internet safety. Um this is much much more in-depth than what we currently go to. >> Okay. >> Um right now the internet safety that we provide is uh tame and I think appropriately so it's it's much more broad. it's much more general. Whereas this and the reason why one SRO in particular feels very strongly about this is is he feels like our current coursework right now while it's quality it does not necessarily help students understand the actual gravity of some actions that kids are increasingly taking online. Some of the comments on the books um
043are a little concerning to me. I don't know why we feel that they would be good in our libraries. Are there any other conversations we'd like to have? >> [clears throat] >> No, I'm just trying to formulate in my brain. Well, I would move to approve the online safety presentation uh to be presented by SRO's uh for the district. Um and deny the middle school supplemental materials as presented. Is there a second? >> I'll second. >> You'll second. >> All right. Um, all in favor say I. I >> I may. [clears throat and cough] >> Did you vote? >> I said I. >> Oh, okay. >> Sorry. >> Three in favor. That's okay. One against. Motion carries. I didn't hear you. I'm sorry. Next, we have the course proposals. Uh we have high school sports
044nutrition, high school sports marketing, high school vet science, and high school history of rock. Do we have any conversation on the nutrition and sports performance course proposal? Is this a text we currently have? Uh >> I apologize. I'm just catching up with you here. >> Not a worry. >> [snorts] >> This is not a text that we currently have. >> Okay. >> Um with the timing, in fact, that will come up a couple of times with these course proposals. Um and so I do expect to bring those textbooks back to the board. um in the July meeting for approval. >> Okay. Typically what happens is the text will come before the proposal or with the proposal so we can do it all at once because we would need to approve the course material. Um, so
045I guess on that note, the text for um, sports marketing. Um, it says there's a curriculum used. I'm assume I'm assuming it was a typo. So, student sports and entertainment marketing. >> That is actually not a typo. >> Are you kidding me? >> Stukant sports. >> That is the name of the company. Okay. and that also needs to be approved. >> Okay. >> So, I I do understand the typical order of that um in a recognize that it's out of order this time and that was just uh the timing of when the course proposals rolled in. >> Okay. Um, what I do want to point out on behalf of our high schools is that for scheduling purposes, it is convenient to, even though it is out of order and I recognize that, it is convenient
046to get these approved um, pending approval of the textbook that they plan to use just so that they can start putting kids in those courses. >> Same with the introduction to veterinary science. Um, that would be a text to approve as well. I believe the vet science as well as the history of rock and roll already have their textbooks approved. >> Well, the history of rock and roll doesn't have any textbooks to use. Um, so I would be curious what medium they're going to be using to teach the course. Is it just listening to music? Is it youtubing it? I mean I'm just curious because there is no text which I mean I think it's a great course to offer. So um >> it is interesting. >> Yeah. >> Um okay. >> Yeah. I I
047certainly will follow up on that. My concern is that we are trying to tighten budgets and add and now we're adding textbook and curriculum and I love the idea of giving our kids more options. Um, I just feel like we need to be focusing more on not adding four more electives in the two two high schools. That's just my my two cents in the you know, when we're talking about class sizes and, you know, trying to pair back and make making sure we are teaching the kids in the in the school day that we have and now we're trying to spread our classes even thinner. I I'm concerned about that. >> Sure. Yeah. My my understanding is that both of our high school principles are really doing their best to like you identified create engaging
048choices for kids. Um I don't believe that any of these electives are going to be in addition to the current schedule offerings, they would be replacing [clears throat] something else or be modifying something else. um and it might just better align with what they believe student interests and needs are right now. Um our our administrators are well aware of our budget situation and um and even how that's going to impact their instructional funds moving forward. Um that said, it is the understanding that these schools who are trying to start a new initiative or use new programs, um they they have instructional funds designated at their building level for for those resources, but a valid question. Absolutely. I would move that we table the course proposals until the curriculum is presented or the method of um
049instruction specifically for the high school history of rock um until all the information can be pre presented. >> I'll second. >> We have a motion and a second. All in favor say I. I. >> I. Any opposed? >> Hearing none, the motion carries. Uh moving on to policy 5500. Oh, they're getting sassy out there. Is there any comment or conversation on this policy? >> [snorts] >> and >> you got nothing. Okay. >> This is up your up your alley on personnel. >> Yeah. >> Thoughts? >> I I would approve it as is. I mean, it just looks like there were some minor changes in there in the words that they putting it up. So, >> okay, >> I will move to approve as presented. >> I'll second. >> We have a motion and a second.
050All in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? Hearing none, the motion carries. Uh, moving on to the returning directors. Is there a reason we weren't given the hour schedules? >> Uh, no, there wasn't a reason. >> Okay. Um, >> typically >> I think it's because we haven't we usually do that when we're done with negotiations and in case there's any changes and we haven't finished. >> Okay. So, you'll be bringing those to us. >> Sure. >> Okay. >> We haven't there have been no changes to this so far. I know something comes up. So, did the directors receive um a step last year? >> They received a step in November along with everybody else when they got raises along with the administrators and the classified staff. >> Okay. [clears throat] Does anybody have any
051comments, questions, or conversations? >> So, those that are in cell 10, they're not they will not This will be three years. >> That is on the administrator one. >> Oh, yeah. That's right. Yep. Sorry, forgot. Yep. >> Nobody in the director one is maxed. Okay. any conversation that we need to have. >> No. I'll move to approve as presented. >> Second. >> We have a motion and a second. All in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? >> Hearing? None. The motion carries. And then I understand we were I think emailed. Yeah. >> So, my apologies to the board. It dawned on me today as I'm doing evaluations into the system and I'm thinking about the fact that I had to issue administrator contracts that I they also received an increase in November. And when
052I provided you the document, I was providing it as status quo of the contracts that they were issued at the beginning of the year last year. Mhm. >> I didn't put in the new number, the new cell um to which they did get that increase. The ones who were eligible for an increase. Um and so the ones that were not eligible for an increase were those that are capped out at that cell 10. And the other ones that were not eligible for an increase were our new principles last year. Everybody else received an additional step. Then from the what you're seeing in that document that is in word book, the correct document is what was emailed to you guys today by the park. And that is what I'd like to issue contracts based upon um
053tomorrow and have those due back uh 10 days from tomorrow. Couple of questions. >> Okay. um who places people in these where they place on the on the scale? >> So when we have incoming um principles, they are placed by the superintendent. >> Okay. I'm curious and and just trying to understand and it's hard without um having are our high school principles pay differently than our middle school principles. >> Yes, they are their pay salary schedule is actually out on our website under departments under my department if you want to take a quick peek. Our principles are in different columns um varying and as far as they also have different contract days as well. >> Yeah, it looks like there's a difference of five days. That's right. Okay, got it. There we go. Oh, there
054they are. Okay, great. So those that were capped in cell 10 last year remain in cell 10 this year. Received no increase last year received no increase this year. >> That is correct. But they got a step increase >> when they're in the max. >> Our our salary schedule. >> Oh, if they're maxed out. Yeah. >> And so if there isn't any kind of cost of living adjustment, um then they don't get any increases. >> Nothing. >> Yeah. You >> But if they're in the middle like at step cell six, then they got a step >> to cell seven in November. Okay. >> And that's how I how what I want to base the contract off of what was emailed to you today would be their contract numbers. >> Okay. >> Yeah. The board might
055remember this conversation in November. Um because the original recommendation was to give an increase to the base of 2%. >> Right. >> Um and we felt like I believe the board felt like there was enough feedback from staff to where they preferred to get their step instead of the 2% increase to the base. But this is one of the the outcomes of that is some people were frozen. I will move to approve as presented. >> I go ahead >> Trusty Bane. Can I clarify? Not. Can you clarify that it's not the document that was within board book that that it is with the additional step that was sent to you guys today for those that um are eligible for that step in November, last November. >> Yes, that is correct. Yes, >> I would like
056to have a little more conversation. >> Okay. Um, I do believe that those that have been frozen in cell 10 deserve an increase because I don't know how long we can penalize the administrators for being in the max of their column because it is a penalty if we're not going to acknowledge them for the service and the commitment that they've made. >> Who makes the paycharts? I mean the district office creates the salary matrixes and then they are approved by the board >> but there's no uh state and ran pay scale >> not for administrators or classified no only >> but we get re but we get reimbured from the state for administrators >> at a at a flat rate not on a scale like we do for teachers. >> Okay. And I I don't
057disagree. Um I figured that would be a conversation when the I was looking more at the the individuals being um I figured we would be doing pay pay scales when we approve those. My only caution is that >> they're we're asking to approve where they're at >> and respecting that they can't move. I mean, you're talking one, two, three, four employees that are on cell 10 that have not had movement and have not received a benefit. um >> for chair Thompson. >> Yes, >> there has been some discussion and I I don't know if this obviously this isn't the year that administration recommends that this occurs just because nobody's getting raises at the current moment unless you know our enrollment approves and we take another look at that. But there has been some discussion of
058maybe adding additional steps to that matrix. Um, other districts, some of them go up to like step 15. >> Mhm. >> So, >> I I do completely agree um with where you're coming from. I think that these are are folks who work very hard and who have worked very hard in our district for a long time. >> Yes. Um, one potential concern that we would run into is that administrators are not the only group of people that this problem has applied to, >> right? >> Um, and so that would just be something for the board to consider uh before going down this path. >> We do have classified staff as well who have been frozen and are their last cells. So, I could see where that would kind of create some conflict. >> Yeah, I
059agree. I don't want to punish those that are loyal and have longevity in the in the district. And >> it is a struggle because you have a couple administrators on there that they're going to be retiring in in the next couple of years and I'm sure they'd like, you know, more money in there. that I mean I definitely believe something needs to be done with a couple of our matrices and we do need to take care of our people for sure and we need to you know have people advocate for our administrators >> um that is but also our classified staff. >> Absolutely. Would [snorts] it would it be So we sent out teacher contracts >> with the understanding that we may we may increase them >> that we well depending if you guys create
060anou during negotiations >> that we sent out teacher contracts stating that we were going to send them status quo based upon the fact that negotiations was still ongoing at this point in time right >> just so we could get contract contracts out before July 1. Same with administrators. We need to get them out before July 1. It doesn't mean that you can't, you know, change their contract later on. >> Um, if we see higher numbers in enrollment or if something changes financially, we can most certainly do >> do an adjustment later. Yeah, >> for sure. >> We do have a motion on the floor. Does anyone wish to second that? >> I'm done with my conversation. >> I'll second. Could you repeat the motion on business? I was I just moved to approve [clears throat]
061as presented and then I will amend that to say that we >> revisit the idea if we have a >> change >> a change in fun or an ability to increase add some steps to the matrices to >> to increase that are >> it wasn't as presented in board book it >> oh right sorry you're right with with the corrected So you move to approve the administrator contract with the spreadsheet we received via email. >> Correct. >> And we have a second from Dave. All in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? Hearing none. The motion carries. >> I would like the salary matrix matrices uh revisited and brought back. We have to do something. We cannot keep people frozen so short down the line. That's just >> Yeah. No, we can definitely um do
062you want us to do some drafts or do you just want to look at the current ones and have discussion of what you want to do with those? >> Um we should probably look at what we currently have >> um and then give direction based on that. >> Okay. >> All right. Thank you very much. >> Thank you. So, we have an alternative authorization for Brian Barnes, who appears to be a music teacher and going to be a halftime steam instructor. >> Move to approve. >> I'll second. >> We have a motion in a second. All in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? Oh, you didn't vote. >> I said I. >> All right. >> There you go, Dave. [laughter] Um, no one opposed. Motion carried. >> Direct. >> Thank you. Uh, summer board
063meetings, temporary relocation. We do have issue with the Washington Street uh work being done. Um, so it's been recommended recommended to relocate here. Is that agreeable with everyone? Would we do we want to make it the road show? I mean, >> I'm I'm okay with with doing it here. I just would ask that [snorts] during that time then that we not do executive sessions at 5:30. That's >> it's very difficult for me to get from Post Falls to here by 5:30 without having to take additional time away from work. So, >> why is it here versus Lakeland? >> They're doing roof work at Lakeland, too. No, they're not doing or does that close the library or what whatever space we would have? >> We we ultimately felt like this was a good opportunity um given
064the size of our district to hold some meetings up north as well and so we the library at Lakeland is open. >> Um >> okay. >> Well, years ago um >> not all summer. >> Thank you. >> Okay. years ago uh the board would actually travel to different schools years like many moons ago. >> Um it was requested that we go back to that. We have occasionally held uh meetings in the north and when we have controversial matters we have uh traveled to different locations to just to try and meet all of our constituents. So, I mean, I think this is a great setup. I really do. Um, >> that caught me off guard. >> Oh, well, it would have caught you off guard trying to hike into the district office, too. [laughter] >> It's
065quite a track at this point. >> It is. >> Yeah. >> It's very dangerous. >> No, I just walk through the pit. >> Dangerous. >> The pit is getting a little bit deeper every day, so really >> be mindful. >> Oh, I guess I'll not be doing that. [laughter] If I have to jump or climb, not happening. Fair enough. >> All right. Okay. So, do we have any other conversations uh with relocating here for the duration of the summer and then once the district Washington Street opens up, we can potentially relocate back there depending on how John Brown's doing. >> Yep. And this is an action item. >> I believe so. >> I will move to approve. >> Second. >> Motion in the second. All in favor say I. >> I. Any opposed? Hearing? None.
066The motion carries. >> Sorry, Jeff. [laughter] >> The bowed head. >> A little bit of latency in my response. >> Well, there are other board members that do travel into the district office. I'm just throwing that out there. >> Um, >> bathrooms. plan for board directed committees, the long range planning and strategic and Jake has some input and recommendations. >> Well, this is something that was brought up several months ago. Um, I believe at the time the focus of the conversation was trustees selecting essentially design from their zone to participate in these committees so that there was a consistent presence there. >> Um, I would just like to take the opportunity to explain my uh vision for this if that's appropriate to say. Uh I I think our district is at a point where we
067have a couple of big things to address. Um one of them being school choice and the other one being school funding uh meaning levies um and timing and amounts and all of that. Um, I would really like to work directly with the board to get some some pretty extreme clarity on what you want to see out of these groups. And I would love to purpose these groups to de community input and conversation around those two big issues. Um, and so logistically what that would probably look like um is a regular strategic planning committee. um and then subcommittees off of that for school choice and planning. And then there might even be more teams that branch off of that for online versus magnet schools, etc. >> Um and then the same thing on the financial side
068for community input on school funding and levies and what programs does the community want to support, etc. up to this point my in my research looking at all the old documents I cannot see really any mission or guiding principle or philosophy for for those groups >> um but they are something that the board has requested um reports from >> and so that's why I refer to it as a board directed committee because it it does seem to be the expectation of the board that these committees are meeting and reporting back regularly Um, and so if this goes the way that that I am describing, I would plan to bring those reports to the board um, in a cycle that just keeps you up to speed with with every meeting and >> excellent >> how that's
069going. So, um, if that all sounds good, what I would like to do is for the next regular board meeting bring a draft of essentially like a a schedule and, uh, a draft agenda and a mission and some guiding principles for what those groups would operate like. >> Okay. >> Um, so that you are just very apprised of how we are setting up and setting the stage for some potentially big uh, decisions to be made in Lakeland >> for success. >> Yes. >> That sounds fantastic. >> Yes, it does. Okay. >> Yeah. Sounds good to me. >> Ultimately, I'm seeking permission to like run with this a little bit even though they're your >> perfect. >> Not literally, but yes. >> So, do we just want to forward names to Jake then that might for
070people that might be interested in >> Well, if you have people that you want to get uh involved, sure, send them to either Sarah or Jake. >> Um Dave sent me a great list of people. five, six, >> six, >> um that I've been kind of working with and just keeping them apprised of the policy committee. Um we don't have any other committee activities scheduled at the moment. So if you want to send people my way, I'll kind of give them the the quick onboarding talk, get them on a list so that when we do have things that come up that they are getting emails like reminding them of when the meetings are and what's what's going to be taking place and I'll kind of reach out to them on your behalf to make sure
071they're in the loop. >> Perfect. >> Excellent. Okay, sounds great. Awesome. >> Yeah, thank you. >> The next up is the 2627 citizenship awards. We felt that um >> this is this is all you. Well, you know, [laughter] um given that uh this last year we um had an opportunity to uh have buildings push forward students for a trust award. Um respectfully, I think it's the district's duty and the building's duty to produce dynamic citizens. And so not wanting to take away from the buildings cuz all of our buildings do something to um honor the students that shine. >> But I think with respect to citizenship, we as a board should be honoring those that are dynamic citizens are going to become dynamic citizens. That's the trajectory. Um, but I'm not really sure what all
072we want to have in it. I'm not sure if this is an end of the year hurrah. Um, I know that several of us enjoyed seeing kiddos, but I also don't want to put another hoop for buildings to have to jump through um because their test was so much anyway. and learning that the buildings have their own things that they do with their mods and with what their uh position of development is for the kiddos. I just think it's important that we don't step back from the opportunity to acknowledge these kids and I think citizenship is uh something that we need to bring back to the forefront. Mhm. >> So, this is just kind of something to talk about because I also don't want to dump this on principles, you know, come September 1 and
073be like, "Oh, by the way, um if we can give them time to plan to kind of help meet the what we would like to see for citizens, um citizenship recognition. That's why it's on the agenda. I think that's good. I think also with with that being said, you know, those those kiddos are typically >> recognized in an assembly or or whatever. >> Could we be invited to those assemblies? >> Sure. >> So that we can be present when they're >> receiving their awards. That might be a >> well the city >> an additional step of of recognizing being >> so you want the buildings to reach out to us when they're doing whatever honorary thing for their kiddos, right? >> Mhm. >> Okay. But what I'm asking for within the citizenship Thank you. I'll
074probably knock it off because you know it's things I do. Um, what I'm asking for is for us to kind of figure out a uh a layout, a protocol or whatever so that we can be like citizenship award for this kiddo or that kiddo. Put some boundaries on it so that you know it's intentional, not that I mean the goal is for every student to be a dynamic citizen, but there are those that rise above. So, um, that's kind of what I was thinking about. >> An opportunity for the board to set their own criteria based on what priorities are for you as opposed to just trying to take what exists in a building and apply it to something else to get kids >> or creating something that's just not really I mean, >> our
075goal and mission is for [clears throat] great citizens. That's that's >> that's it. Yeah. >> So, I think it's important for us to So, I guess if we can think about that and come back at the July board meeting with the criteria, whatnot that we all think should go into it and we can kind of draft and formulate something so that we can move forward with it. That would be great. >> Yeah. Um, Trusty Bane, really quick to your request though, that is something that we are building towards. And so in the second half of this school year, we actually had all schools um put their events on a district event calendar that we could monitor so that even district personnel were aware of all of those different things. Um and so that is something
076easily that we could share with the trustees for those specific events. Yeah. >> Well, and I think we've got a pretty good system with if y'all just let Sarah know. She's really [laughter] good at noticing us. that that is like >> yeah, >> she's on it. >> Well, and that is one of the things that is the responsibility of the board clerk >> is to let us know of >> things going on that we may be interested in in attending. That is literally one of those >> those items. So, >> doing my best. >> I know. And no, I know I know you are. I know you are. I I am not trying to take away anything from what you are [snorts] presently doing. It's just >> I'm just teasing. It's all good. >> Cool.
077>> But I can share with Sarah. She's got a great system for communication. [laughter] >> Perfect. >> That's on me. That's not on me. [snorts] >> It's all good. >> Okay. >> Uh next up is the uh this discussion on changing a course name from Hello Hawks to media journalism. Th >> this is something that is just an FYI for the board. Um, I did not bring a course proposal for this because it is already a current course, but Hello Hawks is something that has a bit of a name in the community and it's familiar to people. >> And so I just wanted to bring to your attention that this course is going to be called media journalism from >> But doesn't the doesn't Timberlake also have like a Tiger TV. So then that would
078also be media journalism. >> No, they I believe they're going to continue to call theirs Tiger TV. >> Preference of the building. >> Okay. But I thought the purpose of changing the name was to put an of course catalog so that when schools want to pull from it, media journalism can be Tiger TV or Hello Hawks. I thought that was the intention. >> Well, um, we certainly can have that conversation. I think that the way that the course catalog is written right now, it's pretty clear that that's a course that's an option. um in the nature of that course in particular is pretty unique because the broadcast is going to be called something uh for the students and so it's um you know I mean even though on the schedule at this high school it's
079going to be called media journalism they're still going to broadcast uh I believe Hello Hawks broadcast program um and so we can officially rename the course if that is what the board would like to do >> no I thought that's why you were bringing it to was to rename the course for both so that >> I think it was in general not had >> look it's media journalism but they're going to run hell hawks >> they're going to run hello hawks the program got it correct so the course name will change at Lakeland High School >> don't think it too much >> um I [laughter] my back starting to hurt >> he's sorry just to um if we broaden the name of it to medium jurisd eligible for CTE funding for it because it's not
080such a >> it has a broader scope. >> Okay. So then why would we not do it for both schools if we're broadening horizons? >> Fair. >> All right. That's my point. I don't I I have I'm not saying we should be doing away with Hello Hawks or Tiger TV at all. >> We don't have any middle school TTE courses at this time that I'm aware of. >> Just the two high schools. Yeah, just >> right. >> Okay, >> we're with you. Yep. We will make sure that it is consistent and they will still be their independent programs. >> Yep. Perfect. >> Got it. >> Sounds great. >> Tiger hawk. >> No, we will not be doing that. [laughter] >> Um, [clears throat] all right. So, policies, >> whatever gives us more money CTE wise,
081I'm I'm down for it. I brought in a penny tonight that I found on the ground. >> Every penny counts, man. >> It's a real contribution. >> We might have to shadow box that on the wall. >> We're going to put it to use. I don't know what you're talking about. >> Oh, right. Right. It needs to be put back. >> I'm trying, Dave. >> Yeah. >> Uh policy 1620, the CIP, uh to potentially pull from the district policies. Um because there is no policy 1620 is board goals and objectives and it is written specific for the continuous improvement plan which uh the legislature has removed and will be bringing something else back. So my when we looked at this policy and understanding that the language in it is specific to a SIP that we
082no longer have, it would seem reasonable to either either remove the language and create a whole new policy or just pull the policy down until we have new language that we're supposed to be uh adhering to. with respect to whatever plan the legislature is going to head our way. >> Mhm. That's not to say we don't want goals and objectives. It's just that Yeah. >> Right. The title is misleading because I when we read through it, I'm like, "Wait a minute. This is all SIP language." >> Highly specific. >> So, this isn't really board goals and objectives. It's just board >> completion of the SIP. >> Yeah. [laughter] If if I can add um I mean even though the SIP plan requirement is going away and there will be a year between when the SIP
083goes away and whatever this new strategic plan looks like from the state, >> right? >> Um I think it would be unwise of us to not set any goals. And so >> correct. I mean, I looking through the language myself, I guess I would question taking it down just because it is it is still broad enough to where we're not restricted to just the SIP van format and it would support the board's actions and my actions and setting some of those specific goals and having a routine follow up on them. >> Okay. >> Um I I guess all that to say I don't know what it hurts to keep it. Okay. Then >> is it broad enough? >> You believe it's broad enough? >> I I think so. >> Good. You're not looking at me.
084>> Now that said, we could do the same thing without a board policy guiding it. And so that this might >> be irrelevant. Um >> well the only thing I ask is that um in the past when the board has created its goals um it has been used as sort of a a dividing uh what's the right word? A dividing log. Well that's the board goals. That's not the district goals. If we could all be on the same page, I think that that would benefit all of us tremendously. And when I read through this with respect to the um uh with respect to the language that is specific to the SIP plan, that doesn't happen anymore at the moment because we're getting something new. Um I'm right there with you. we could develop goals or
085we should be developing goals. Anytime we have, it's it's just been an obstacle. I don't want it to be an obstacle anymore and I don't think it will be anymore. But if we take the time to uh develop our goals and objectives and work with district administration to implement them for all, I think that would be hugely beneficial. I think it would be an oversight to not do that. Um, >> thank you for saying that. >> I I guess my >> Yeah, I guess I don't I don't really have a response um to your earlier point about it being divisive. Um, >> which you wouldn't. >> I just I I think it would be wise for us to keep this in place and and set the goals. >> All right. >> And and monitor them
086over the course of the year. So, and and like I said, this isn't something this isn't a point that I intended to belabor just for the fact that we could still do it without the policy as well. Um, so it's really the preference of the board. Well, there was some benefit within the SIP plan with the measurement goals within the IRI and all of that. I don't think we need to completely um abandon those markers. Um whether we have ASIP or not, I think it could be incorporated into some of this. >> Yeah. Um, but what what does the rest of the board feel about that? >> Oh, really? >> You just want to get out? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> I'm good with leaving this in place or I I'm good either way. I
087as long as we are all clear that even without a policy we are going to establish goals and objectives for the district. >> Okay. >> For the coming year. >> All right. >> Sounds good. >> We'll keep it in place and we will follow um a simplified version that is clear. >> You got it. >> Okay. from pulling from the sip. >> I'm all about simpler than the sip. >> All right, sounds like sounds perfect. >> All right, moving on to the dates to remember. Um June 22nd and 23rd, we are continuing negotiations with the LEA. The 29th, yay, we finally get policy committee. Um July 1, special meeting. There's been a request not to hold that meeting. Um how does the board feel about it? We don't need it. >> Don't do it. Do
088we need it? [snorts] >> All I know is if we don't do it and then the next meeting is four hours long, y'all don't start talking about that. >> It has to be under two hours. >> We're working 7:34. We're doing great. >> No, I know. >> From the district office perspective, we don't plan to have anything that is urgent in that meeting. >> Not even course proposals. >> We could wait until we could wait until the following meeting. Just saying. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Yeah, I'm good with not having it. >> Okay. >> Yeah, >> sounds good. >> All right. Then we have policy committee the 6th and 13th of July and then our regular board meeting on the 15th. Um discuss possible dates for long range and strategic planning. >> I think
089based on tonight's conversation, we'll circle back to that at the July 15th meeting. Perfect. All right. On that, do we have any input for future agenda items? >> I do. >> Okay. >> Um, is there any way we can get a look at our PE curriculum for all grades? >> Sure. Yeah, we are coming up on our annual curriculum review cycle in the month of August. Um, but absolutely. Is is there something specific that you'd like me to prepare for next month? Well, I feel like there's [clears throat] a lot of kids that are going through grade school and they're not getting enough exercise and they're not getting enough education for sports. So, they get up to the junior high, middle school, and they they don't even know what a basketball is. And so, the
090coach has to deal with a kid that has never played a sport. So, I think we should um start having sports specifics in our PE programs, especially like first grade through sixth or seventh, like two weeks of basketball, two weeks of volleyball, two, you know, two weeks of this all the way through. That way those kids are prepared when they get into junior high because we have to cut kids that because they've never played a sport before and they don't they don't know what they're doing. >> When I was a kid, we had every sport >> except maybe football. We did two weeks of gymnastics. We did two weeks of >> everything. And we did the presidential fitness award. >> Yeah. >> Which do we have that? We we do that program to some level

Um I'll also bring what our current PE standards are K12 um because there are standards just like in other content areas that we're required to meet. Um students actually get a grade for physical education all the way through. >> Right. >> Um and so we we can definitely have more of a conversation about that. >> Okay. >> For sure. >> Sounds good. Yeah, >> I think it would be good to see the curriculum though. I mean, I realize that we will have it in August, >> but um if there is a curriculum content, it would be good just as a refresher for the board to see it. >>
092Sure. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Um just to prepare you, I am I expect that to be pretty slim in terms of textbooks. >> Yeah. >> All righty. >> Fair enough. Y >> anything else uh input for future agenda items? >> No. On that note, I do need a motion to enter into executive session pursuant to Idaho code 742061B. [clears throat] >> Is it all 1B? >> It's all 1B. >> Okay. >> So moved. >> Second. >> We have a motion in a second. We need a roll call vote. >> Trusty Bane. >> Yes. >> Trusty Broadhead? >> Yes. >> Trusty Thompson? >> Yes. >> Trusty Quimpy? >> Yes. >> Okay. On that note, it is 7:38 and we are in executive session.
