001the growth for anybody else and and um asking everyone that it's not only 40% but it's every it 44% is the bottom line and more um not leaving any children behind in the non proficient can sorry one second I'm sorry I know I know I want to go hold on hold on hold on Tuesday Tuesday Tuesday I'm just looking at I mean I'm looking at last the last one that we were looking at which they went they took back so they're all say non-proficient so regardless the proficiency doesn't matter anyone non-proficient is going to move a minimum of 40% will move up and if they hit that 40% they get the highest points yes okay all right sorry yeah I'm like okay I'm because it just didn't look like there was any challenge but I

002see now that it's 40% and if you hit that 40% you get the highest points to get closer to your full pay okay okay thank you for letting me walk through that that's fine that's all I had thank you there's no other I don't have any questions but just like one St I think we asked for something more visual um I do get it I do understand but I think the last time yeah and maybe that's just something again to note that's sry again something just to probably note for the next time and the committee and then I mean I don't want to start stepping out the line in the sense that they they're they're they understood what they were tasked to do and what to bring this was the only one that was a

003little different than all of them so their plan was to do it then absolutely I would say give us some reference references especially visual references the way primary did or anyone else did to say collectively this is how we're going to do it I'll just just a okay that good yeah motion to approve a motion by Miss anamarie Stevens second my Miss uh syvia HRI hi letter B this evening discussion possible approval release agreement between barue Unified School District and the th a nation education department Sor Diaz president members of the board and members of the community um in the spirit of keeping um everyone safe and be able to collocate with the nation um uh the plan to um lease um a couple of offices has been uh Revisited to ensure that the rooms

004that we will be leasing they are within close proximity and they have um independent access to the school um as you can as notated on the map of q144 q47 and also the two offices on the right hand side of the map um it this plan also allows them to have access to Independent restrooms as well as independent independent parking lot providing both entities privacy and be able to conduct business may I just make a com comment and and I know we got a response from the attorney but to me we put a fence between accelerated and intermediate because of age and all of those safety issues but I don't know why this is any different than having individuals on campus that are not that are adults that are members that are around students anyway

005is that not why is that not still somewhat of a con I mean I don't want to say concerned and I know they're going to follow the policies that we've asked them to but I just it sounded like they weren't going to have to do anything more than that so follow what we asked them to do is that my understanding I completely understand and this is something that we can continue to have those conversations and look into it um we have the uh understanding of what is the expectation and the uses of the facilities um but the the safety of our students and our staff it's a priority and that's definitely something that we can continue to uh discuss okay right so so there's four four areas that yes the one on the right where

006it doesn't have a number there's actually two rooms located top no the one of the corner one that doesn't have a que there's there's two rooms there off to the right here the closest one the one on top is just saying the that color is what the color key so the K you see where the K is that will be their parking uh R will change the locks they'll have specific keys to them so they can only and get in and out of there along with operations where the K will be the entrance to where they'll be getting in out of the office so they should be secured this area and then leave from that area after I did have a question in regards to is it all programs that are going to be there

007or what programs will be there it is at the all Department of Education off right but there's several so all of their programs there's a lot of programs I can I can inir and and report back to the to cuz I think right now One Stop um what else is there kicked out they all got kicked out they all lost their building they have nowhere to go they have no building they so they're in different areas right now within the nation I know one stops at wreck yeah so maybe this is something that I can come back by the next video J go somewhere oh yeah J venito Garcia Library people go somewhere sorry one stop there not it's not in the contract that says who is going to be accommodating no we did not

008get in that specific the lease is they need a facility um we did not inquire as to how they planning to use what departments um they requested the facilities to conduct business but if in the spirit of transparency that's something that I'll be more than happy to reach out um and and and report back to our governing board and that's I only look at it in the spirit of we're going to be held liable for anything that happens on that campus regardless of who we let and what they're paying us because it's school grounds that's just my own concern no no no problem helping the nation at all but I just are there any other questions that you would like me to inquire and report back I just feel iffy but hey I I don't

009want to say no but that's yeah I I saw that okay okay anybody okay yeah so do so the other thing in regards to that because we you know anybody that works with our students have to have to be have to have a clearance say that again clearance cart clearance cart students instructional program let they be going to our cafeteria I don't know I guess we've never done it so maybe this is the maybe this is the test and maybe we don't do it ever again if it turns out to be not good I don't know how long do it take them to get a building and are we really willing to enter into a multi-year type of lease agreement is that what this is is only one year how long is it the Le

010year by year so I don't I mean to be hon honest I don't know I don't see them getting their building immediately at all construction never goes on schedule that's well I would think that they'd at least get some type of temporary bu because I hope so well as far as I know they've banked a lot on their arpa fund re rehab and demolish a lot of buildings and so they're just putting themselves everywhere they can until those are up but like he said and well delays are delays and if you're building something up I know they did try to come to the college we don't even have room for our just kidding we don't have room right everybody that's fine I mean okay I just I would just recommend that you give us updates

011if he does get approved like who's going to be there okay and you're going to deal Direct with the Director of Education on anything that's going on there if you have any issues if you have any concerns we have any concerns yeah um I as part of our the same way that I do check-ins with my departments um I'll be more than happy to set up up um checkins with our collocated partners um to ensure that we're both on the same page and we U meet each other's needs I appreciate that the other concern and I know I don't know I mean excuse me it's only the only concern comes from me is when when our students are there and we're in having instructional days and those types of things like if students aren't there

012we have space or room this is why I'm glad we talked about putting them in a location where they're we know where they're at and that's what they're doing and not carousing around the the campus it's an actual operating school so let's please treat it as such and be respectful I'm not saying that they won't be it just makes me feel a little concerned but because their parents too if they get what are they doing here what's that when did you guys approve that you know I mean it just for the sake of at least the discussion I want us to say we had that discussion and we feel confident and comfortable we're going to move forward even though I don't feel comfortable I feel like I don't want to not be hopeful either as

013long as our expectations are clear and and I believe that that needs to be continue to be um part of the conversation um even though there is there will be at least agreement there's also um the the work ethics from both departments that we need to review and the expectations um of what it means to respect the students privacy um and honor and respect the teachers uh practices as well as the school there's um also giving an outlet um when there's any concerns how to address it who to address it and the timel the timelines in which needs to be addressed on both ends oh okay I mean yeah I guess just wondering whether or not I mean just wondering because also we don't want students to be hanging out there I know that's sometimes

014they hang out in offices different areas but oh yeah especially if parents are around or family members the visitors are not allowed to cross lines they have to go around and check in as well that it's just because they're collocated there's not an open entry way but like I said we are an operating school and there's the gym there are we're not using the gym at all there's separate entrances that we will have to work with with our students M there's [Music] uh that's what I was yeah what about their visitors oh very true on the S instead of going the do we discuss those days that we're not there and that we're not going to be giving them Keys you're basically giving them ACC those to those areas at the times and days that

015they're in operate or they operating hours or whatever okay I mean we talked about that right you you discussed there's there's still so many procedures that happen behind the scenes to ensure that this happen including the safety um when there's an emergency on their end and how we have to conduct and who's going to be the lead in terms of emergencies lockdowns correct fire drills um as well as when there's a the need of fire department and who are they attending because they're using our line so there's a couple of um right now this is the lease agreement but there's now the procedures agreement okay okay yeah yeah yeah active shooter active shooter well I I I don't think it's discussion I I I feel like I mean I think you got your questions to

016I mean you got your questions that we need to ask about and I guess more or less just keeping us updated M absolutely to ensure that we are aware that there isn't that there are confined to and I can include these components part of my um superintendent report as part of weekly reports to keep the board updated as well okay good thank you so next steps you're are this is not a negotiation right you're you're waiting for us to approve the lease agreement and then you give it to them to say this is what the board go get it approved and they may see it and after this they may say we don't want to do business with you guys okay I I just don't want to ever make anyone feel especially those that are

017trying to defend us that we're questioning it I just I know it's all in there I just don't want to not go without having the discussion at this level to say well the board just approved it they didn't even talk about it we talked about it we we shared our questions and our concerns and are confident and comfortable it's just making sure that we're securing protecting ourselves our children our students foremost go ahead s oh I guess if um my understanding is that once we approve this then you be doing the negotiating and whether or not they're going to you're going to get questions answered before of correct well go ahead and approve second was motion by Miss Sylvia Hendrick second by Miss anamarie Stevens no I letter C's discussion and possible approval of agreement

018of agreement between barbecue Unified School District and the Arizona School of the deaf and blind Mr Diaz members of the board um our agreement um with the school um with the Arizona uh School of De and blind it's about to expire um we need to um Once Again Begin our conversation and to our agreement um they have been serving their students um depending on the need when we are not able to provide fape uh to them and they they are a they have been able in the past to support us um there it's a it's a continuation of services on for our students um under this agreement there is there any changes in the are there any changes in the agreement and how many students do we have currently I'm just going to ask said

019it in there in in the memo what did it there's no memo I just see the leas agreement oh this is way at the bottom can youo students four it was a memo I don't see I didn't see oh okay there it is okay sorry and I have the capacity for any more more if we need them absolutely yes but no no no significant changes sorry go ahead Dr P always um had services from asdb sorry we've always had services from asdb primarily because we don't have specialized staff who um do sign language and whatnot um and we have three kids right now that go that we transport and we could have more but this type of disability is like an it's a low incident disability you're not going to have um a significant number

020so that's why the numbers are so low and plus we have children here on the campus that the iterate staff from the cons cons orium come out and provide services so and again it's it's a loow incidence disability that you're not going to have high numbers anyway and I I do attend their IEPs their individual educational programs and um it's just terrific to hear the progress that the kids make especially the the little ones who who travel from Way West all the way into Tucson on a daily basis and their families support that and I think it's terrific So yeah thank you Dr peder um is there is there cost to or is it just an agreement it's an agreement which I think based Fe for service oh ADM oh okay it's Fe for service

021are students ASP what is the sorry go ahead I think they reive do we get they get I think they get the whole and yes we do pay for those Services I guess this would be a good enough time to to ask about maybe transportation is it and it's only the four students transported by our staff right correct on a bus correct on a bus um it is a it's not a bus um it's one of the small buses it's one of the small ones small bus a white one a White Fleet bus so well so it doesn't technically need a bus driver someone who can drive I'm just wondering about your how if it's if it's working all right I don't know how to ask the question I'm not exactly sure why they chose

022to do a bus because in years past when when we had our little twins going they were always transported in just like a a sedan yeah okay there's possibilities um we not only need to ensure that we have the correct bus but also reliable transportation and we're probably using the bus for Miles I would assume because we need miles for money correct and if we use a sedan it probably doesn't C cross calculate that way I would say that's that's what only I would think why we would change to a bus I will have to do some research on would you and maybe let us know I'm interested I mean I think I don't want to say I mean I'm fine with I I appreciate the service I really do because I know there Specialized

023Service that we can't really provide but I don't know that I've ever seen the agreement maybe I hav't maybe I just haven't we do we do it every year okay I mean we do it every every year yeah well I think because this this service is needed and it's been successful in the past I think I go ahead and make the motion to approve second motion by Miss syia Hendrick second by Miss anamar Stevens M hi just letter D is oh sorry motion carries letter D is discussion possible approval of winter break memo Amendment okay so before I last month I was not here and I had made a typo on the memo so it stated 15 days but it only should be 10 days so when I go back and adjust the policy I

024want to make sure I have it correct by the board and I actually um all 30 employees where it says that all those employees were inclusive of 10-month and 11mth but just to be on the safe side I added 11 month there also so those are the two changes to the actual document that to approved so now I'm asking the board to go ahead and approve the amendment as shown with the addition of showing the 11th month and the 10 holiday days for the winter break for the 30 employees should have just left it 15 just kidding next [Laughter] year so it's a agree if no other questions a motion to approve is there a second second second by Miss anarie Stevens mo i what's up number six is our cons I'm sorry motion is
