001Do you know anybody who [Music] just Did you end up in your office at all? >> No, actually. Wow. Last week was waiting for us. You're right. Yeah, she was all [Music] terrible dream that he bought some money. But he wait >> get ready. Thank you. [Music] >> Yeah. I [Music] November's husband. But he said [Music] somebody I think that's I love bail money yet. I'm t-shirt. Yeah. >> So, just about talking He never miss the threat. Yes. And this choice has been powder or seeds. But otherwise must have Mr. Pledge to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for it stands nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all. All right, moving along. Good news. Come on, Miss Cruzer. >> Sure, Scott, you have to come up.
002You have to be up here. >> Yeah, stand right next to it. >> So, I just wanted to take a minute to thank Scott and the maintenance department. Um, this over the summer, West had a lot of work going on around it, road work, parking lot work, and the guys did not fail us at all. They redid our community schools um, coordinator's room. They took down all the old shelving, put up new shelving. They had to repaint. They had to put up a little border stuff. We had to have all of our school supplies delivered here. Scott came to pick them up every day because it was so many. There was not room down here to store them all. He delivered those every day. They found a back way to get into our parking or
003into our playground so that they could continue to do that. Um, they ended up tearing up a bunch of our front lawn. Mike fixed all of that. We're getting that back to normal. And they took all of our pea gravel out and put in the wood chips >> wood chips. >> The wood chips into all of our play areas. Um, so they really kept us going all summer even though it was kind of a battle the entire time. And so I just wanted to thank them for that because we've had several parents um notice all the changes we're making at West and saying how much better it looks and how the facilities look better. And so um I will say ever since I turned their names in, they haven't been to West in the last
004month, but that's okay. We'll talk about that. >> I'll come back next month and complain. But um they've been really awesome. I just wanted to thank them because they've worked very hard and they're always um eager to help out wherever they can and we appreciate that. So thank you. >> Thank you. Scott have a uh certificate of recognition for the board for you um for Scott Fish in the maintenance department for outstanding dedication, hard work and commitment as well as effort of preparing and maintaining safe, clean and welcoming environment for the students and staff. Awesome. Thank you. I didn't move on to superintendent report. I just have one thing this month. Um, as we start getting closer to election season and legislative priorities that you're starting to see, I know the ISBA is sent out
005their recommendations for this year. the superintendent Cridgefield's budget, uh, if you saw, she's recommending an 8.9% increase. Breaking that down though, the majority of that increase is actually statutoily required. So, there's a requirement to increase funding for health insurance. Um, a couple of other items that are in there that are required. So that the only real new money in her proposal is 50 million additional into special education. And so as a as a region, that is what we are going to get behind as well as focusing on just the one item this year knowing that it's going to be um a pretty difficult budget year. And so the the feeling was if if the superintendent groups are aligned behind one common theme that hopefully we can get some uh additional people to to get behind
006that as well legislatively. So that that's kind of where that is. And then I do have one other thing. Uh there's going to be a panel here on October 19th on the uh voucher system and so the save our schools is coming to Mountain Home and I have volunteered to be on that panel. You'll have some more information as that goes out will be hosted I believe at the conference room over at Pioneer. So as we get more we'll see that >> any questions there any um board of trustees public engagement report for anybody? >> No. Okay. >> Albert, is there any public input? Okay, we'll move on to I'll take a motion to approve the agenda at this time. So, second favor uh consent agenda. Does anybody want anything pulled out? If not, we'll
007go ahead and accept a motion to approve the consent agenda. >> All in favor? Hi. >> Hi. >> Okay. So, move on to no delegation. No unfinished business. New business. Approval of resolution 26-05, declaration of candidates elected as trustees. Zone two, zone four. Mr. Gilbert, understand it was a real tough call. It was close contest. So, Mr. Chairman, members of the board, resolution 2605 is the declaration of candidates elected as trustee in zone 2 and trustee in zone 4. And since there were no um there was only one qualified candidate in each zone, those are considered elected positions. So I'm going to go ahead and read the declaration. It says whereas the date filing written nomination for the office school district number 193 trustee in zone 2 and trustee in zone 4 is expired and
008the date for filing a declaration of intent as a writing has also expired. Therefore leaving only one qualified candidate for zone 2 and only one qualified candidate for zone 4 as nominee. Now therefore, be it resolved that in accordance with Idaho code section 34-1407 and section 33-502B, if no qualified candidate files a declaration of intent as a writein candidate nor within 5:00 p.m. On September 5th, 2025, the clerk of school district number 193 is hereby given permission to declare the single candidate from trustee zone 2 as elected and declared a single candidate from trustee zone 4 as elected. We had further resolved the following that the following the official canvas of election the clerg shall prepare and deliver to Fred Ped zone 2 trustee and Connie Donahue zone four trustee a certificate of election which
009is signed by the clerg and bears the seal of the school district authorizes 16th day of September 2025. So I would ask for your approval of resolution 25 2605. Do I have a motion to approve? I move that we approve resolution 2605 declaration of candidates elected as trustee zone 2 and trustee zone 4. We have a second. All in favor? >> I'm going to you're going to have to vote. We have to do a roll call. >> Roll call move, please. >> Uh, trusty P. >> Hi. >> Trusty D. >> Hi. >> Trusty Betta. >> Hi. >> Trusty Knox is absent. Mr. Chairman, >> I kind of weird if you >> Well, congratulations you guys. >> Thank you. >> Approval for uh Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah. request permission to attend a conference for psych I
010guess the psychology department. >> Yep. >> Okay. So, who wants to be the speaker? >> Well, I wasn't fast enough to get my finger on the nose, so I got nominated. >> Oh, congratulations. >> You. So, I'm Carrie Reigns, one of the school psychologists, and this is >> a little past and m >> and um we as a team usually attend two conferences a year. That's pretty much all we do. and one is what what is known as the Idaho um school psychology association and it is actually this Thursday and Friday. Um so with the new policy revisions on attending conferences we have already paid out of our personal pockets to go because of you know short time and we wanted the early bird. We are asking if we can be reimbursed for the cost
011of the conference and be able to take our professional days to to go to this this conference. And then we also attend one in February and it's the National Association for School Psychologists. And um that one we usually attend virtually in our offices. So we're still attending um we we're just asking in all this. We just thought we'd do the whole year in one shot. Um for the cost of that conference, which is $199, we don't take professional um days off because we're there. Conference doesn't normally start till noon. So, we're in our offices working and then we're available the whole office, too. So, that's what we're looking um that's what we are asking for the board and we already sent you a um a paper with everything on how it benefits children. I can
012go read through it if you want, but I was told that I really should keep this at three months. >> So, um >> I also put a copy of that in the report. >> Yeah. So, I I didn't see um any reason to read it out loud unless you wanted me to, which I could. I'm a good reader. So, >> anybody have any questions, concerns? I don't. >> So, I will entertain a motion one way or the other on this. We want to allow them to reimburse them and allow them for time. There's no authority and reimburse them for the time in their office. I would like to make that motion to um pair their request uh from our school psychologist uh the permission to attend um the conference and then also use their professional
013days and then also the following conference to where they're on site but yet to pay them back for their registration. Do I have a second? Second. All in favor? Right. >> Right. >> Congratulations. >> Oh, thank you. >> Thank you. >> We were told we were setting the model for this. >> You were the first. >> We are the first. >> Okay. We have uh Scott, the approval for the bid proposal for boiler. >> Members of the board, Mr. Chairman, in your bid packet, there were three bids for the boiler replacement. I would ask to uh move forward with that with the ACO as they were the lowest bid and also a good service partner currently with the schools >> bid tabulation from the base bid 199 from 1995 the alternates that price for the
014alternates includes the base bid or is Been a little while since I've reviewed that. I want to say that's an addition two, but I believe it still puts them below the other two. >> It does, >> but the alternates are more than the base. >> Oh, I I apologize for not remembering what the >> what that says. >> Base mid 199 305. The alternates are 220. I don't remember the details in between the 190 and the 220. >> I I didn't read that far through it this afternoon when I reviewed I I would assume that we want to look at doing the alternates while we're doing it at the same time. And so I would base the 220 number rather than the 190. But that's the total. >> Yes, >> correct. >> Not 3400. Okay.
015>> Yeah, that was >> If that would be the case, I would come back to you and say, "Hey, I I mistook how they said that and we'll we'll step back." >> The alternate and see that they are >> Yep. >> Okay. I'm sorry. Um, so you're saying that the alternates are in addition to the >> I believe I'm gonna get tongue tied on this. I would. >> All right. >> Oh, no. There's something for their actual >> Oh, I don't think we have. >> So, I apologize for not being able to answer that question on on the spot. Did we have a budget for that? I think it was talking about >> Yeah. Do you remember what we initially budgeted for the boiler? >> Mr. Chairman, if I recall when I was looking at
016the bid for I believe the alternates are in addition to the basement, >> so it's an additional $220,000, >> which still when you add the two together still less than the other two, >> right? Yeah, they're still better regardless of how you add it up. I know. >> That's all right. >> We'd actually be looking with the old looking at about $419,000, >> which is about $120 just right here. 214,000 was the budget was the proposal. Is that what you asked for? Right. >> Yeah. So when Yeah. Yeah. When we originally >> Yeah, that was that was just for the base boiling, right? [Music] >> What happens? Too bad he doesn't. That's where I got from. So this what I'm reading here the boiler replacement includes all boiler materials labor trucks and taxes for $185,000
017that's up and then the add alternates are boiler and heat exchanger replacement and so that would be additional as far as $214,000. So the the alternates at 220 that's the whole propert 199 correct alternates >> the alternate adds in that adds in an exchange rather just to boilers. >> Thank you Albert. >> Thank you questions. >> So currently it's a single boiler system. So if we do go down, the entire building goes down. This allows us to have a redundancy and not completely freeze up if a boiler goes down. Echo base. I make a motion that we approve the echo bid including the alternates for $220,50. [Music] All >> in favor for canvas training leg to the board. Uh so Canvas is our learning management system. We one of the most important programs we have
018in the district. Um it's something that we've always struggled a little bit supporting. Um it was brought in uh if I remember correctly during COVID. It was a large swap over. Um so we're just looking to get some more training for our health desk manager to help support that system and help support our teachers. We have a cost on that. >> Uh, yes. The cost is $2,000. Um, I have that pencil in on our budget already question. Take a motion for approval train. >> Second. All in favor? Hi. All right. >> Miss Catherine, you are up. Annual approval of the 45day notice for the destruction of special education records 504 gifted and talented and Medicaid. >> Yes, that's you pretty much just said it. >> Okay. >> That aligns to the special education manual and
019Furba and Medicaid. We maintain the records for six years past their last date of enrollment and we need to just give a notice that says we will shred records. We could shred it in 45 days. We won't shred until May, but it's nice just to get it on the approval. >> Any other questions? >> We'll take a motion to approve the all that I describe. I move second. All in favor? I go ahead and run away. I said you can and run away. >> Okay. Policy replacement to ISBA format. Uh FURPA student records policy and FURPA student data privacy and security policy. >> Mr. Chairman, members of the board, the two policies in the replacement, that's simply what they are. They're just replacing our current policy with the ISBA policy. So, we would ask for
020your approval of replacing our existing FURba student records policy with the ISBA model policy as well as our FURba student data privacy and security policy. So with that, just a question. Since we're aligning so many policies, is this just going to be multitudes and multitudes? Okay. That's that's kind of what I thought I read. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Expect policies to be on the agenda for the next couple years. >> Great. At least till I retire. You got more. >> All right. So I'll take a motion to approve the replacement. Yes. So move second. All in favor? I policy revision. First reading is name, pronoun, gender, name change and title and then video surveillance. >> Mr. Chairman, members of the board will take these separately. Um the first one is the name, pronoun, gender, name
021change and title policy. Uh there's some high language that is highlighted just to be aware of in there. Um I also know there's uh trusty Bion I believe has some input to give on this policy as well. So trusty bign. Yeah. So I had um noticed on here that there was an inconsistency where we have on here that the parent or guardian are the ones that have to u provide the request for the name change. But then in uh section here on line 110 it says that to request the educational record to reflect the name change. It says a student or parent guardian must tell you that the name changed. We got an inconsistency with the two and my understanding is with the student part it's if they're over 18 or emancipated um whether they're
022only legal regarding them they can do that if you need to clarify that in this >> and what line number you talking >> line 110. >> Yeah. So you you needed someone like to request that educational records reflect a name change a student 18 years of age or older or emancipated from their parents must keep given that shouldn't the first one where the students gender identity when requested by the student's parent or legal guardian. If the student is emancipated, they should be able to request them as well. Correct. >> Yes. >> So, you'd have to change it both. >> And what? Because when you when I convert over to PDF, it changes numbers. So, you're saying 110 in yours. >> The 110 is right after name change. Okay. So you're saying a student 18 years
023or older or parent? Is that what you're saying? >> But if this student has also then been is >> right. So, how would you like that line to read again? I'm sorry. >> So, the first one it was parent only, >> right? It says parent or guardian. >> And then the second one it said student >> or parent guardian. >> So, they should both say the same thing. >> So, go up to line. So, the base is 110 and 94. Blind 82 says, "Due to federal and state laws protecting student records, written permission of a student's parents or legal guardian is required." So, does that apply to 18 or older or emancipated students as well? >> Yeah, it it wouldn't. Again, it just goes to the but I think we can add that language in
024there to clean that up too. 83. After legal guardian, you put legal guardian or student over the age of 18 or emancipated by court is required. And then the same thing in line 94 after a parent slashguardian or student the age of 18 in. >> Yeah. So in reference just thinking about that does that go back to I mean that's our policy but in relation to laws. >> Yeah that that's where this all comes out. So this is a policy that is required right now and so this is ISBA's version of it which I think meets the the legal requirement but I think for just from a clarity standpoint having that in there that you know a student's 18 or older we don't require that or if they're their own legal guardian we don't wouldn't
025require and the law wouldn't require so I think adding that language will will help >> address at the very end of the document >> where it does say student. >> Yeah. So why don't we clean that up and we'll bring that back next month and if it's again if it's where we need it then that's it can be a second and final meeting. >> Yes, this be placed under unfinished business. The the second policy is the video surveillance. And again, you can see there's some highlighted uh language in there and some language that has been lined out. Seems like it makes it more general. >> Yeah, >> it's cleaning it up. [Music] No questions. Make a motion. Take that one out. >> Right. That one that one will come back. >> Yeah. >> So we'll
026take a motion just so you put that you want to word it. So all in favor of approving the video surveillance policy I >> So I take a motion to table the name pronoun and gender name change. I move that we table the name pronoun gender name change and title policy revision or revisions until the next meeting. All >> right. Policy adoption, health, sex, education, and human sexuality. >> Mr. Chairman, members of the board, this is a first and only reading of this policy as it is required by Idaho code. Now, so I would ask for your approval of the policy 23020, health, sex education, and human sexuality. Take a motion to adopt policy. >> Second. >> All in favor? >> I move on to executive session. Personnel matters. So I'll take a motion that
027we wish to execute the session. >> Second. >> All in favor? >> I chair. Roll call. >> Trusty Knox. >> Hi. >> Trusty Perez. >> Hi. >> Trusty Due. >> Hi. >> Trusty Betty. >> Hi. >> Mr. Chairman. >> Hi. >> All right. It is so resolved that the board of trustees of school district number 192 from old median executive session pursuant Idaho code title 74 chapter 2 section 74-2 subsection 3 subsection 4 subsection C subsection 6 subsection A open meeting executive session section 74-204 subsection 3 open meeting executive session 74206 subsection 1 subsection 3 to consider the evaluation dismissal of discipline of public school employee and code be a further resolve. The following executive session, the board of trustees will convene in the public session of f or further business or adjournment of the
028meeting. We are in executive session both. And then jo
