001Okay. I'd like to call this uh board of education regular meeting to order. Tuesday, May 20th, 2025 at 7:02. Can I have a roll call? Mrs. Mc Phillips here. Mr. PJ here. Mrs. Theodore here. Mrs. Bach Barfield here. Mr. Bardi here. Mr. Trail here. We have a quarum. Let's uh do the pledge of allegiance led by students. to one nation indivisible and justice for [Music] all you read the mission statement. The mission of Norwich School District 80 is inspiring educational excellence in a nurturing environment. Celebrate the success of multilingual students. I'd love to invite all of our students of honor up to the front here by the board. We're also going to be joined over by our principal from [Music] Okay. So, our students of honor this month are actually our ML students. So, just
002to give a little bit of uh information for the board yet again and also to our families as well, our ML students. So, Norwich School District currently serves about 327 students who are identified as multilingual. What basically gets you that qualification? If you are a student who has an exposure to another language other than English at home, you are in that category. So there actually have 28 different languages that are represented in this district. We are a very very diverse district. It's a wonderful thing. Um but as a result, every year we do require our students with multilingual uh designation to go through an access test basically to see how proficient you are with the English language. So it is exactly just that. We do it every year. It's something that is mandated by ISMY.
003We do have a lot to just figure out, you know, how far have you come in terms of mastering that English proficiency and we do that test every January through March typically. Um, so again, this is just a little bit more about access testing just to kind of understand what we are looking for to understand is there's academic proficiency in English. We look at listening, speaking, reading, writing. Um, and we basically take an overall or we don't the the state actually takes an overall composite score in these different categories. We kind of mix and match and see how well you guys really understand English as a whole. Um, so when exiting ML services, we really focus on that 4.8 or above in that composite score. And that basically means you get enough of an English
004language exposure that you can do very well in that academic proficiency or that academic setting. And we really do have a pretty good strong hand in the English language. So for that reason, we have a huge celebration today because we at both buildings this year celebrate 38 students who are exiting out of multilingual services and you no longer need that additional support. Uh you have that proficiency. This is a huge celebration for all the students that you see up here plus some as well as our wonderful teachers who've been supporting them throughout the entire year on their unwavering support. Um so we have quite the list here as you can see 38 kiddos. Um this is just a small small group of what we have. These are all our wonderful students. We wanted to actually
005recognize all of you for your hard work and achievements. We actually have different certificates for all of you with your building principal. So if you want to actually go ahead and stop by them, they will actually have something for you. Keep going. apologize. So again, well done to all of these students. Well done to you at home for your your hard work and and commitment to celebrating bilingualism. We really appreciate that in this district. And again, a very very high commendation to everyone for all the support. While they're getting those out, um just to remind the board that this year we um have increased our staff to support students with bilingual teachers in Polish and Ukrainian at both schools and bilingual Spanish report uh support at Lee and at Giles. So um under uh Mr.
006Masters and Mr. So leadership the bilingual program we saw four students last year exit out of uh by the access task force this year at 3. It's it's really wonderful world and we're very proud of our students very proud of our staff and of course our families who are here to support us and to work with us um on helping our students on their English proficiency. It's the light. We'd like to have to have with the rest of the class. The students do. Yes. Okay. Can you have the students introduce themselves? Would you like to hear their language also? Sure. Great. Students can introduce themselves and and share their language that they speak. Absolutely. So, what we'll do, guys, is here. Let's go ahead and kind of get somewhat of a line here and then
007we can kind of go down if you can share your name, what grade you're in, and then the language that you speak at home other than English. We would love to hear a little bit more. So, why don't we start? Would you like to share your name, your grade, and what language? I think you have a couple of students. Oh, you want to grab them? Come on over. Come on over. Come over and find your principal. We're going to finish your hard work. All right. Why don't you go ahead? So your name and what language you speak at home. So I'm Kot and I'm in fourth grade and at home I Hi, my name is J. I'm from I speak English. My name is Sophie and I'm in [Music] My honest number six. My name
008is Don. I'm in seventh grade and I speak [Music] students, please come and join them. Get your certificate. Any other students that are sitting that just came in? [Music] No, I just want to make sure we get everybody. So, I don't know. I kind of lost count. What was five or six languages? Yeah, right there. We have five, six languages right here within this small group. And again, it's it's a wonderful thing of just how many students have been have made such great progress this year. And again, bilingualism is such an asset to your students. You guys have such great futures ahead of wonderful skills. So, keep up the hard work. Okay. We finally have our best students through. Yeah, absolutely. [Music] On to action items. Consider a motion to approve the agenda as modified
009with those modifications being 1883. Uh preschool teacher named Laura Sparks Kennedy. Um and 18810 uh there's a little typo. John Joe is the director of technology. Can I get a motion? [Music] Uh Laura and uh Lorenzo, Mrs. Mr. Rock Barfield. Yes. Mr. Barard, yes. Mr. PJ, yes. Mrs. McFillips, yes. Mrs. Theodore, yes. Mr. Tribuse, yes. Motion passes. Recognition of visitors. No longer able visitors, but we have the uh students and their families. Very nice. Any correspondence? No. There's no public participation. There's no public for your request. There are five this month. They can be reviewed at the district website like every month as published. 11 administrative reports. Uh superintendent, this is Dix. Thank you. All of my reports are my discussion today. Good. Thank you. Special education, Mr. Masters. So, a couple things. Um we
010recently held our timely meaningful consultation which is required uh by our uh the individuals with disabilities education. That's something that we do to kind of talk about what uh parentally placed non-public school students are offered in terms of special education supports. Um so something that we get offered at a hitch. Um we do also have a really great opportunity for our preschool. Uh they got to have a laser show on May 15th. It was a fun and memorable experience for them. So we uh we definitely appreciated that opportunity to to kind of bring our families together kind of a very cool end of year celebration. That's beautiful. Thank you. Uh building reports Gile School, Mr. Biani. Yes. Thank you. Uh tomorrow is fifth grade dear graduation. The doors will open at 8:45 in the morning
011and the ceremony will start at 9:00 a.m. You are all invited if you are able to attend. Uh we will have fourth grade fly up for our current fourth graders and that will be this Thursday, May 22nd. The doors will open at Giles at 5:15 and the presentation will begin at 5:30. This is an opportunity for our fourth graders to come in, learn all about Giles School, meet the staff, and take a tour of the facility. And then finally, um actually I have two more things. 8ighth grade graduation is Tuesday, June 3rd at Ridgewood High School. Uh the gates will open at 6:15. The ceremony will begin at 7. It'll be indoors in the fieldhouse. And then finally, for any individual student that is interested in joining athletics next school year, as a reminder, all
012students that uh are interested in trying out must have a physical on file. So over the summer is the perfect opportunity to get a physical so that your child can participate in athletics next school year. And that concludes my report. Thank you Lee School. Dr. Raviola. Thank you. Uh so a couple upcoming events I want to share out next week from today actually we will have our field day event uh that the PTA is sponsoring. So that's always an exciting day. Um on June 4th, we will have our kindergarten celebration which will be splitting into two um separate um celebration times. One believe is at 9:00 a.m. and the other at 11:00. Um then we also have our preschool celebration that um afternoon early evening on 24th as well. Um also we have completed all
013of our uh end of the year assessments. Um, so now we're in the phase of shifting all that assessment data, analyzing that, working with our building leadership team on developing our school improvement plan and we are looking forward to sharing that with the board next month. So really excited to share all that out in the couple more weeks. Thank you. Discipline reports Giles. Yes, I will give the report for Mrs. Gulo. We had one inschool suspension in violation of board policy 71 190 7 9 and 21. We had one inschool uh suspension in violation of board policy 71 19021. We had two inschool suspensions in violation of board policy 71 190. Number 9 and 21. We had one inschool suspension in violation of board policy 71 190 1 3 E 3F 3H 18 and 21.
014We had two out of school suspensions in violation of board policy 71 190 number 3 A 3E 3F 3H 18 and 21. We had one out of school suspension in violation of board policy 7 col 190 number 1 3 A 3E 3F 3H 18 and 21 and we had one in school suspension in violation of board policy 71 190 number 7 9 and 21. That concludes my report. That's a nice counterpoint we just heard uh monthly staffing report and you could address it. Okay, board committees. So touching on uh May 1st the reorganization meeting. I have some notes here on what was discussed. Education is a uh committee of the whole. It's good as is. Board policy and development. Um, I was able to take that on. Lauren, did you say that you'd like to
015building grounds? Uh, that's one I've always held dear to my heart, one I'd like to stay on. Uh, if anybody else would like for building grounds, I would like to. Okay. Um, behavioral intervention is another committee of the whole that's worked. Negotiations and human resources being a negotiations year. Uh I think it wise think it wise we remain as iso Amanda and myself. Finances work very well uh as a committee of the whole communications. Uh Fanny uh yourself and Jen you asked that's good. Norris Park District. I have a note here of Lorenzo and Amanda, you interested? Yes, please. Okay, so um these are taking shape. I can imagine uh we still have some leeway coming up to we needed to make the change. Um and superintendent, what's that? You always can make the change.
016You sure it is the president right now. Okay, good. Um Okay, good. Those are looking coming along. Uh discussion items. Thank you. So with that uh as you all notice obviously there are just six individuals uh for the board of education and we need a seventh. So we are out um with applications right now um for the board of education and the interview process is our next step and then we can discuss our next steps after that. That is something we'll talk more specifically about enclosed today and who has applied and then we'll talk about our next steps. That would be um the board would interview all interested candidates and then um make a decision based on the interviews and then the next meetings swear in the new which we're hoping I think for at
017the June 17th meeting. 8th grade graduation as Mr. Vietki mentioned is at 700 p.m. Doors opening I think he said at 6:15 at Ridgewood High School. Please let Mrs. Garcia know if you will be attending so we can make sure that you have an honorary seat for that. And we have um in the past allowed board members to pro give their diplomas to their children. So if you have an eighth grader, please make sure you let us know as well and if that's your choice that you'd like to do that summer school. Um, so we have some numbers for summer school now. Uh, summer school is starting on June 9th and running till June 27th. Now, as you recall, summer school in the past has been running off of ESSER funds. We are done with
018ESSER funds now. Um, so summer school was a paid event for most of our students. We did uh have a small number of students who are are multilingual students that qualified in the grant and a small uh group of title one students that also qualified in the grant. But we have 165 students total in summer school for the uh 14 days. Uh we had 159 last year. So, I think that shows that even though um it is still a paid program at this point, it is something that our families want to invest in and that we we should consider to continue doing. I think if we saw a decline in our numbers, that might be something that we'd have a discussion about, but we're really not seeing we're seeing a pretty steady amount. Um ESY,
019which I think we have uh 14 students, I think in ESY next year, Mr. masters. I think that's right. Like 14 students. Uh we might be up to 15. We have late. So ESI is a little bit different. Extended school year is for students who qualify um with for special education services that will continue to receive services in the summer of those 14 days in June. So a little different process and of course that is free to parents. Um, so we're starting June 6th is a teacher plan day and then we're starting June 9th through June 27th. And of course there's no school on June 19th. Quick question. 165 students. How many staff members did um I have that in uh the approval form tonight. I'm remembering right off the top of my head. And
020out of out of all the staff, are they all district 80? Correct. They are district 80 because I know in the past that they had first bids on they wanted to and then we Yes. Okay. Okay. So they're all district 80. All district 80 staff. So district 80 staff who um I don't want to use the volunteer word because they get paid but who works ESY and then also who works in school. Okay. And that list is being approved tonight. So we'll look at that during closed. Okay. Since that is a personel issue. Any other questions about No, I'm sorry. No, don't don't be sorry. We're continuing residency and registration. Our families are uh completing online registry and registration. I think that's going very well. Um and the new system is very userfriendly. So, if
021you have not completed that yet, please do so. Um you know, we really need that information for planning. Um at this point in the year, both of our uh schools are working on staff lists and school lists and placing students. So please um if you haven't already completed registration reg residency, please do that. Any new students to the district or any full day kindergarten students must register in person. Little different with full day with the tuition part. So there is a deposit that's required and then as you recall the board has a policy that that has to be paid by December 31st. So it's a little bit of a different process with that where we have the parents put down a deposit and then sign that they understand it needs to be paid. It's been
022very successful the last two years without families paying by that date which is great. Curriculum fees and band we started something a little different this year. Typically Mr. Rafaro doesn't start having people register for bands until uh the first second week of September, but you know, why wait? So, we've already started. Mr. Beck's been sending out the link for families to register for either cadet or concert band, which is $245, which really considering everything, the whole year of practices and concerts and rehearsals is uh is really very minimal. Um, so we've already started our families on track for that. So if you're interested, please check out Mr. Becki's um track. So they'll have that information on the link or contact uh Mr. Barl. As far as curriculum fees go, our early bird discount ends on
023uh the last day to pay that is May 31st. So starting June 1st, our fees will go up to 325 from 275. So, if you have not paid that yet, please take advantage of paying that early bird discount at 275 before that increase happens. Also, just to remind everyone that uh we are accepting waivers, waivers that are based on need. So, if a family needs a waiver, we certainly work with families on waiverss. We'll work with families on uh payment plans as well, just to reach out and we will help families. So, really exciting. our um school resource officers finally coming together for next year. So we have four uh candidates in the Norwich Police Department that are interested um the admin team. So I I think it's going to be Bob and Sean and
024I will be interviewing one of them I believe on the 13th of June and then three of them on the 17th of June. So probably at the next board meeting I'll have a report about it but probably won't know who the person is yet. We do have a new agreement that is with our uh legal team right now. So, we'll probably approve that next month as well. Um they just the um police department wanted to just update some things. Not not a big deal, but we'll have that next uh should have they should have that next month. And then that person will start September I'm sorry, August of 2025. I have been assured by the police department that once we have an individual in place that we will continue that that um that position until
025uh we don't want it anymore. If that was the case, we of course will start um some planning this summer with an individual and then uh hit up the traffic right away at le point and then of course talk about what support they can provide to for education and training at jobs. So we're really excited about this and for individuals do you interview? Let's just say hypothetically we you interview, you hire, you say this is the right fit. Year goes by, you're like, well, we thought he was the right [Music] fit. Do we have an option to I mean, are we always going to have that option of getting a new one if that doesn't work? Okay. So, it's not like they're saying, hey, you know, they're out of a job at that point. They're
026not We have to if we have another person that Yeah. It's not a good fit for us. We don't even have to wait till all the way at the end of the year. If it's not a good fit for us, we can contact the police department and relook at that um that fit and find the right person for us. Um I think it's nice. We have four candidates. Yeah. And hopefully, you know, that then we find a person that's best for us. Um I mean, obviously, this is a lot about relationship building. It's not about um you know, finding students or having negative, you know, scaring students about anything. It's really just about building relationships and big education piece especially at Giles. So, we're really excited about that. I know that is something that the
027board has uh tasked me to do I think two years now. So, we're finally getting there getting it together. So, today at your desk you have uh the 600 policies which we're not going to review at all. that is something that you should review and uh look at for next month. Um and then you also have the press 118 policies which we're not taking any action on tonight. That will be something that you'll review. There are some main parts of the press 118 policies that I will point out to you. This is the part these are the policies now that are going back to the 2020 title 9 policies. That's a very large part of this um bundle. Uh also is a big u part about artificial intelligence. So that's becoming a bigger and bigger
028thing in schools today. So we are being read it is recommended that we create some policies around AI and the use of AI in school districts. So there are some things we're going to have some decisions to make about that. Um the other thing that uh is very large in this press release is sexing and having policies against sexing in the school district. So updating those policies and really making sure that they are the policies that we are looking for. So you'll see at the beginning of the memo, we'll just basically have um what the main terminology is and then it'll go into what the main areas that they're looking for and then at the end there are the specific policies that are being looked at to be updated. As you can see on page
029seven of the release, those policies on uh title N grievance, response, uh formal complaints, coordinator, those are all completely rewritten or deleted from what they were before the new federal policies that were just passed. So, there's going to be a lot of change in this. I know that tonight we talked about a policy committee. So, um, and I make sure I say this correctly and who's on it. We have, uh, Lauren and Frank on policy. I would recommend that at some point, and we could do this in June, that we have a policy meeting separate from the meeting of the whole where we read through these and uh, look at what's the right thing for our district because there is some leeway and some decisions to be made on these policies. So, question about that.
030when we get this the periodic times that we get this more time to you. Yeah. Um it includes that which the state is saying will be legal requirement to adopt this policy and suggestions as to what we need to make what we should consider we would like as our role. Correct. That is correct. Sometimes most of the things in policy as this is just an update to the law or it's an update to a footnote or it's update to a date. Um if you think back on when the board um when some of you on the board had started when they did the comprehensive sex standards that policy update was also very specific with you could do this or you could do this and we actually spent a lot of time on those policies. This
031this issue is another issue like that that we need to spend a little time on on what's right for us in our district. So unpacking that I think would be best with the committee that you know is now of course Lauren and Frank. So if we can find a date we can talk about what would be good time for us to meet. I do recommend that the board as a whole still look at the 600s still look at the press policies. It's still good to look at even if you're not on that committee um and to be aware of what the policies are. This the 600s that you have um today in this little policy bundle is instruction. This is a heavy area and could be um just a an area that the board has
032more interest in than some of the other areas because it has a little more of um individuality that can be changed or added to it. So, we're not taking um any action on on any of this tonight. What we are taking action on tonight are the 500s. Oh, I'm sorry. Let me explain this to you. This bundle, this very large bundle that you have, this is the actual policies from 118 with the suggested uh changes or um updates. So, if you look at, for example, if you turn the page and you're on that second page of your handout, you can you can see like some of the new suggested that's on there. Or if it's in blue and crossed off, you can see what they've suggested to take out. So you kind of have to
033work with both of these at the same time. This will give you the, you know, the the 360d view. This is going to give you the actual language. So tonight I am asking the board to approve on first read the 500 changes which are not very significant. Uh 5 col20 is to update the date and name of the BOE president secretary. 5 col 30 is to add the word designate after the board president in three spaces. We did go into a little bit deeper with these last month and I gave you the actual policy language. 5 col 185 is language cleanup. Uh the word following is written there twice. So IMS is in consent tonight to pass that on first read and then next month we'll do second read and then we will change these
034policies in press. Any questions about policy? So super exciting tonight we have an architect firm a new architect firm very excited about. So as you recall when we put out the request for qualifications 10 firms uh responded. We um then u did the rubric that went down to five firms. We did two second round interview and now we are down to one final form. So our final recommendation tonight that I am asking the board to approve the contract with is Wald Wald Architect and Engineers. They have in fact already um started with us in our conversations. One thing that the board had previously approved was the uh looking at the stage area at Giles and the hopeful removal of that stage area that's in the small gym where the where the um students eat lunch.
035So taking down that stage will mitigate some of our um issues that are on our life safety plan for safety. Uh there is some asbestous in that area that is safe right now. It's not touched. It's way under the stage, but we'll be mitigating that. as well as opening up that area for uh possible restructuring of the lunchroom. Also, um putting everything up to code, we need a a three section sink down there. So, we'll be able to move everything down off the the top layer, make kind of a a quasi little kitchen area, nothing where we're cooking food. We're still looking at organic life coming in next year, but just being able to serve, have a service line. um and um put it on the floor, those kind of things. So, there is tonight
036a um an amendment to our life safety plan that'll just clarify what exactly we're doing in that work. And then that money that we would uh spend on that will come out of 90, which is our life safety funds. Really excited about this. as having been involved in the requests for qualifications or reviewing the 10 firms and then involved in the day of five interviews. Um I share that excitement and working with W. They were very nice to talk to and uh from the getgo it was a good feeling and uh it's good to be moving along with this. Yeah, very exciting. Feel like we've been stuck in in a spot for a while. So be uh so we are looking at um the bids came in back on the summer asbestous work. So uh
037as you may recall we've been working with the village um and the asphalt work. Did I say the wrong word? Yes, I did. Asbestous. Thank you. That's asphalt there. Sorry about that. Thank you for correcting me. Uh the asphalt work. So, we've been working with the village because the village is also working on an asphalt project and we've been working with the engineers that the village uh has um acquired and we went out to bid on our areas. So, we're looking at a full grind and pour of the lead parking lot. So, that's the only area that'll be a full 4 in down full report of the parking lot. Um, as you know, there are some areas in the parking lot that are sinking in. Um, so this is a um a big project for
038us. They'll be doing that in July once all of the staff is not at least for summer school. Then we're going to be doing some doing some seal coating on our south lot, our north lot. Seal coating of course is not grinding down, but it's just sealing patching. Um and then at Giles on Cullum and Oral um we'll be seal coating the courtyard area Giles will be seal coating re establishing the like the basketball court lines and any any other lines that we'd like. Now the good thing in this is the um asphalt work came in actually lowered than expected on the bed which is great. The bad thing is that this is in the maintenance state maintenance grant and we need to spend $100,000 and this came in lower than that. So, um Derek
039is attending a meeting with the company. I believe it's Thursday and looking at um what other areas that we can do and add in because there is a a per square foot amount in the quote. We wanted to go back out to bid on it and seeing what we can add in for the $100,000 state maintenance grant. That is a 5050% grant. So we pay 50, the state will reimburse 50. So this is a good problem we have. Good problem. The only area that we're really staying away from right now, which is unfortunate and and the right thing to do, is the Lee Courtyard. So the Lee Courtyard, as you know, we have had some mitigation of some flooding in there. Um, however, we really need a whole full scope plan for the Lee Courtyard
040as far as um as the water. Um, I I don't know if we want to look at what, you know, what happens is it's a a continual cycle of, you know, many times we put down grass or we put down sod and then, you know, through the winter through the water, everything is gone. Um, kids per class a day on there several times a day. just don't allow that to continue. And that is the main area except where the playground, the red playground is in the courtyard, which we like because it's secure, it's safe. Um yet we need to mitigate the water issue back there. So that is something that we'll have to have the um architect work on and we're going to need an engineer to look into that water mitigation. Um, despite the
041work that's been done in there and the drains that were added in there, we still we're not flooding into the building, which is successful because, as you recall, we did a an epoxy uh filling on on the building. Dug down, filled in some holes and things, but we're still just not able to keep anything growing back there. So, we have to look at what would be the best thing. Do we need to look at um some kind of artificial turf in there? Um, we also want to look at the uh area that's underneath the red playground and perhaps look at that spongy playground covering that's just safer and a better environment for our students. Um, that actually can be taken out of life life safety. So, which is good. So, that's just an area we're
042not going to touch right now um through the record. Uh tonight I'm asking you to approve an agreement with Blitfle our audit company for the FY25 audit. Looking forward to that. Mrs. Debor is working on the dates for that now. That'll be coming up soon. And that's my report. Thank you. Consent agenda. I need a motion to approve 14A through [Music] 14. I have a motion. Motion B. Roll call, please. Mrs. Irvinefield, yes. Mrs. Theodor, yes. Mr. PJ, yes. Mr. Barardi, yes. Mrs. McFillip, yes. Mr. Trabuzzio, yes. Motion passes. Action items. Consider approval of architect services with Wol Architects and Engineers. Can I have a motion? Motion. Amanda. Second. Fanny. Roll call, please. Mrs. Mcfill. Yes. Mrs. Theodore. Yes. Mrs. Irvingfield. Yes. Mr. Birdie? Yes. Mr. Colia? Yes. Mr. Travisio? Yes. The motion passes. Uh
043board comments. Any comments? I have a comment. Um I just want to say thank you to Mr. Vi and Mrs. Buick for a very successful uh trip to Washington DC. It really exceeded my expectations. Um you could really tell the dedication put into planning it and I think everyone had a really great time. So thank you for doing that. Thank you. It was a lot of fun despite the green.
