I >> aliance 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. >> All right, we have a time for open forum. >> There's anybody to address the board? >> Yes. Sorry, I don't know. Do I just stand up? >> Sure. >> You can stand, you can sit, whatever. >> Yeah. Okay. I'd rather >> whatever you're comfortable. >> Comfortable. Okay. Sorry. I'm kind of just popping in here. I I had talked to Marlene a little bit at church and so I just thought this would probably be the best thing. I am here
002and Megan Casey was going to be here with me as well, but the girls are still playing junior high volleyball just to kind of bring in front of you guys the potential and hopefully the removal of sixth graders from sports. Um, so I guess this is just kind of the first start of what I'd like to do to talk about it. So I've been visiting with people in the community. I've talked with all the head junior high coaches. I have spoke with both athletic directors of the uh junior high and high school. Um and then obviously just people like also spoken with other coaches um around the state just of it. Um and really I think the whole thought process behind it is our school is growing and I think the sixth graders are no
003longer necessary for junior high sports. Um, when I speak with the coaches, um, they kind of feel like the numbers are too many and the kids that are there, they're not really necessary. Um, the reps aren't great. Um, kids aren't able to get adequate time. And I'm speaking as having a fifth grader that's going into sixth grade. So, that's kind of where I'm at. I'm like, if it's going to affect somebody's kid, it's going to affect mine. Um, I would like as a parent, if they're not necessary, to keep them in school. They're not actually in junior high. So, I just feel like in sixth grade, let's let them still stay in elementary school. Let's let them focus on preparing for junior high. if we're just pulling them out of the classroom to be fluff
004and extra and not really helping and almost kind of hindering sometimes in a way, I think it's time to start thinking about maybe taking them out of that process. Um the um other thing the coaches have kind of talked about is there they are seeing like a difference of maturity level from those sixth graders, especially like sixth graders to eighth graders and again they're not actually in the junior high building. They're coming out of it from elementary school. Um, and the system's also just not set up the same way as junior high. Um, let's see what else. Oh, I've talked with um like Mr. Flax and I don't want to speak for Mr. Brockmire, but he left. So, I just when I spoke with him, I was like, just have you noticed anything with sixth
005graders? And he did say that um Cardinal Forest numbers happen to drop when they go to sixth grade. And then he and Brock Meer had visited before and said the sixth grade band numbers also drop. So, they're not necessary again for sports. I mean, that's an extra year we can keep the kids in, have a good foundation of like band and choir before they actually have to go in to that junior high and high school type of setting. Um, let's see. Actually, I have notes. Can I fall out? I wasn't sure what to say. >> I'm not sure how official. I just don't want to forget anything. Okay. Um, oh, the other thing I would say is when this started, my understanding was we had low numbers and so, um, in order to keep the
006programs running and be competitive, some of the coaches were having to act as athletes and actually practice and participate, um, I don't think that's the case anymore. When I talked with Nolan, specifically, Mr. Wiser, um, he said that they've had great numbers the last four years as far as like he can remember. And the other option is we have a really strong wreck program in this community. Tanya Myers has done a great job of facilitating that. So there are options for those kids to play and play at probably more of an appropriate level. The only other schools in our league that have sixth graders play are Bellis who recently dropped two one day and Hill City. Um all the other schools that are our size don't have sixth graders playing. Um uh the other thing
007that I have done is I reached out to my alma mater. So Little River is where I went to high school and they have sixth graders play sports um but they do it on a as needed basis per sport and per gender. So when I spoke with the um junior high coaches, I've spoke with multiple coaches, but when I spoke with the junior high coaches, they were talking about they just don't think we need kids really. They could just get rid of them. But if that's something the board doesn't necessarily like, there are places that do have very successful athletic programs. I would say my school where I graduate from has um historically very successful programs where they don't have sixth graders playing every single sport, you know, all the way through. Um so I
008just think that there are a lot of options that maybe we can look into without actually continuing with Stitch. Um, I think that's pretty much where I'm at. Um, I just didn't know what really I think I just was wanting to bring it to your attention. Um, I've been visiting with people probably for like the last two years and I was really hoping Megan could be here because she's had a student athlete actually go through the sixth grade program and then she's looking at Millie, you know, coming in as a sixth grader and so she's actually been through it. Um, and I think that would have been nice to have a little bit of insight, but they're playing right now, so it just kind of works out. But I don't know what what we have
009to go to from there with you guys. I do think it is something that um would be worth like visiting with people in the community and seeing more people's standpoints because just at like ball games and things around when I talk to people as of right now, I really haven't heard anybody. Maybe people are just agreeing with me to agree with me because I'm standing right in front of them. Uh, it's hard to screw somebody. But most of the parents that I've talked to as they've had kids go through it are like, yeah, it's kind of a disaster. There's too many kids. And again, they're just not necessary. So, that's kind of where I'm at. And I don't know what we need to do past this. If there's anything that I can do to facilitate
010or if we need to bring it something more formal, I don't >> talking at you guys, >> right? And and normally there's not a lot of interaction in these things, but it is a topic that Chris that I've discussed with Chris uh as board president that I wanted to have a discussion about at a later time. So sometime throughout this year at some point it's going to get addressed or we're going to bring it to the board. We were going to Chris was going to try to reach out to the coaches and do the same thing that you've done and and just get input from them on on what they feel and then we were going to bring it back to the board to have a discussion about it whether or not we want to
011do away with it all together or >> by sport if we run into an issue or >> whatever. But originally, you know, our biggest thing was when we started it was we didn't want to flip-flop back and forth. >> Yeah. uh because there's new members on the board now that weren't here when we initiated that policy. But one of the biggest things was we just didn't want it to be we had concerns about it flip-flopping, but I've talked to other schools that do it from year to year based on needs and they say it works really well. >> Yeah. >> So, uh but yeah, we'll definitely take your >> Perfect. Okay. Yeah, that's really all I was wanting to do to attention because I kind of felt like this was an issue that >> it
012worked and it was very successful when we needed the numbers, but I think we're really lucky to have a school that's growing and I think it's just a need that needs to be like re-evaluated. >> Yeah. So, >> but we appreciate you coming. >> Perfect. That's all I had to say. Thank you. All right. See you. >> Got a valid point. I'm not concerned anymore. >> Yeah. I mean, I really Anyway, I it's definitely something that uh I've had a few people come up to me and with concerns about it and uh just wanting to go back to being in a rec sports where they get to play kids their age and and practice and whatnot. So, it's definitely something Chris and I have talked about. We just hadn't had a chance to to get
013it on the agenda yet, but it's definitely a topic that we would like to >> like to bring to the board to discuss >> come up with a plan. So, >> um I guess I I mean, yes, you and I have had those conversations. I guess I just ne necessarily have it like on the like scene radar, but do we want to bring that up? >> I guess I don't I guess I'm asking do we >> I think we should >> I mean we do have new board members coming on in January so I don't know if we want to do it before then or after then I don't know whether it matters >> uh but we could >> so I don't >> okay >> if anybody has a preference on doing it now or
014waiting but >> I really don't have a >> I just know when we did it that was the concern was I mean we didn't have the numbers at the time so we had to do something right >> you And it's going to be just a handful of sports because it's the non-cont ones, >> right? >> You know, to where maybe I don't know, like I said, it's it's one of those things where >> we get get overwhelmed at the same time. And she hits the point, you know, so it's it's one of those deals we can, you know, bring it up here in the next I don't really >> Yeah, I think >> we can do it before or we roll through the year. It's already started. I mean, >> because I think we would
015if we made a change for next year. >> In my mind, I pictured it being next school year. like we'd finish out this year as >> is. >> Uh and then so yeah, I think anyway it'll be a future board item just so >> Yeah. So I would say you all up in the spring because then at that same time you can look at see kind of project what your numbers are going to be and look at coaches. I mean do we have enough coaches? Are we over going to be over I mean because I know we've added >> coaches into about every sport, you know. So it' be something to look at there too before we do >> Yeah. >> supplementals. >> That's that was just I'm just letting you know. I mean, that
016was the timeline I had in my head was it would be a spring thing. You know, we're rolling right now. So, okay, that's good. >> Yeah, because I don't think we change it mid >> mid school year. So, >> uh anyway, so yeah, it's definitely going to be something. So, if you want to talk to people and get feedback >> uh in the meantime and then something we'll discuss and maybe not make action till the next meeting, but anyway, it will be coming up. Yep. >> All right. And on the agenda, >> yes, >> one change. >> Yes, I would like to add uh make an amendment. I would like to add 11A um discussion and possible approval of bond financial institution. >> Sorry, what number was that, Chris? >> Oh, I just 11A. Maybe
017squeeze it because we'll have the item 11. We're talking about the proposed bond planning schedule. So, it's since we're in that topic of talking bond, I think that just be a good place to slip that in. >> Oh, the uh financial institution that we would go with. >> I have some information to share there. >> All right. If there's no other amendments, >> I got one question. I know we got a several of them here that want to talk about the uh what are you talking about? >> Digital >> the digital trophy case. Do we have that somewhere? That's not on the agenda. Unless I'm missing it. >> Oh, we we did have that. Uh, sorry, Jasmine. We did have that as as we did. Sorry. Thank you for catching. >> Good idea. >> We'll
018reopen open forum then. >> Sorry. Sorry about that. >> I knew I'd hear about it later. >> Right. >> Well, we'd be wondering why they're sitting here if they >> I'm just ready to roll, man. >> Yes. >> Yep. Thank you, Scott. >> In a world where accomplishments deserve more than a dusty shelf, digital trophy case empowers participants to creatively showcase their achievements through modern digital tools. This course guides students through the process of building a personalized interactive digital portfolio that celebrates academic, athletic, artistic, and extracurricular milestones. Using accessible design platforms and media integration tools, learners will curate their own virtual trophies, incorporating photos, videos, badges, certificates, and learning reflections. Along the way, they'll develop digital storytelling, design, and self-presentation skills essential for a college applications through opportunities and personal growth. Through the school year,
019Mrs. Enfield takes us through lessons covering these topics: introduction in digital portfolios, multimedia storytelling, design tools, and layout best practices. and achievement with purpose, privacy sharing, and digital presence. Each student is assigned different tasks to update athletics and activities as well. Last year, we cut up our yearbooks and scanned them. We are still in the process of figuring out how to upload them to the software. We are hoping to finish to have that project finished by the end of the school year. Um, if you go and look at the digital trophy case in the commons area, this is what the home screen of it looks like. We have all of our activities in here. Um, so on the cheer, for example, you can go through past teams and we have a summary of just how
020our year went and a team photo. And we also have a section for our current squad with our roster. And then we just have a few photos to show like There we go. Um, we have senior photos and just team photos just to show. But that's our cheer page and all of our activities. And then we have all of our athletics. Football. We have our current team and roster team photo and record as of now. We have our past seasons. And we have a section for the shrine bowl for when Roy went. All of our yearbooks when we figure it out. We plan to have them all in here. We just have to figure out. We have them all scanned. We just don't exactly know how to get them uploaded into it. Showcase. This is
021where we're running or we have some awards that people had from last year's, but we look at years before last year's, too. We just have to do our research and find who got them and what they were. So, um I think you guys have probably heard that like we bought the digital trophy case um and a means to eventually like showcase our like athletics um that have gone on uh to do like really great things with athletics. Uh, and so we're in the process of coming up with a process to nominate, I guess, a person from Lingo High School or like graduate from Lo High School to be showcased here. And so our hopes is to get that committee rolling this year. Um, it's kind of like above me. I'm like that's not my committee,
022but I'm more like the school district's committee. Um, and then I'll be on the committee so I know the information and then I'll share that with my kids and um, they would go in like they would get the stories and they would do the research and they would do the interviews and put it all up there for that type of thing. Um, but they also do like this this is new. We started it last year and so um, we're kind of just like open to any and all suggestions. I guess we just wanted to bring it to your attention of like what this is. uh in what my class is doing. So, they're learning like the behind the scenes. It's almost like running their own website essentially. And so, it's been kind of fun. Paxton's
023been with me the last two years that we started. And Addison's new this year, but um it's kind of an upper classman, junior, seniors only type of thing. So, yeah, we just kind of want to show you, show it off, ask if you had any questions or thoughts. Looks great. >> Yeah. I'm just going to see we're making progress. Yeah. >> Do we not have a contact person to help with the uploading and stuff? >> So, uh, we did >> We spent a lot of money to get that. We ought to have a little help. >> We did, but Eli left and I didn't know it until the beginning of this year. And so, they're >> not like I don't have a great contact with them right now. So, I've been learning or they gave
024me like access to do all the behind the scenes work. So, now I'm like trading myself. So basically we need a like contact but I didn't feel like you needed contact. >> So yeah we had one and he was great. He helped me out a lot but he left. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> So >> I think like said you know we talked about this here a few months back you know I think it's important though we start getting stuff in there and updating it. You know um like I know you all can just go look at all the trophy cases. That'll give you a start as to, you know, a whole bunch of different avenues to open up on that deal, you know, and then, like you said, doing the yearbook thing. Be kind
025of cool to have everything when especially have homecoming and, you know, we had a bunch of people back here for the 80 8085 deal, you know, have that type of stuff available, you know, >> all like cut up and scanned. You just have to >> get them on. >> So, the hard work is done. It's just >> Yeah. And so eventually, like they said on like the past records or past teams, we want to I want them to like have a list going down on that left side where you can go and like push 2023 season and it's going to maybe we don't always have a picture because >> right >> we might get to where there were pictures or something but some kind of summary of like how they did that year. >> Yeah.
026>> And whatever. And so >> do we still have all the yearbooks all the way back? There is quite a collection in the soup office. >> Okay. Because I I knew I think it was uh Mr. Sims. I think Mr. Sims had all the >> had all of them, you know, after he did them, put them together and then we had a whole collection that would take you back as far as you wanted to go. >> And now we have them all the way through 200 what we tore up last year. So, >> well, I'm just saying for your pictures and everything, those would all be in all of those going back as far as you can probably Yeah. years and years of classes, you know. So, so >> I' I've been hanging on to
027them just because I know you've been busy with with a lot more current stuff, but um you know, of course, Heather's grandpa Jack passed away um you know, back last November and so you know, of course, the family's been going through the house and and finding and we have found we we found pictures of like the Planeville football team from 1923 or something. I mean, so we there's some really old photos that I mean, as soon as I saw them, I thought, "Oh my gosh, That's what I say. It'd be it'd be neat to eventually. I mean, I know it's going to be it's a task. >> You're starting. >> It's a never ending project. That's for sure. >> Well, we did a bunch of intro like like Addison said, like intro lessons and then
028they I made them like put everything current on there now. So, now that we finally have everything current and they've got the introduction, now I want to start digging into the past before winter sports start. And we have two winter current seasons. Yeah. >> So >> cool. >> Awesome. >> Well, thanks, girls. >> Yeah. Thanks for coming. >> All right. So, now we'll move on to approval of the agenda. >> If that's the only thing, I'll move it. >> Okay. Approve it >> in a second. >> Marlene. All those in favor say I. >> Opposed? >> Motion carries. All right, we'll move on to number six, the consent calendar. There are meetings from the budget hearing, the regular meeting, and the special board meeting and in the packet. And then the bills are also in
029there if there's any questions or concerns. If not, transfers. There are none. All right. If there's no questions or concern, oh, I guess I'll let you through. Quite a stack. I look for a motion to approve. >> I'll make the motion. >> AZ second. >> Second, >> Scott. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Opposed. Motion carries. We'll move on to communications. >> Anything from >> nothing. Okay. Move on to number eight reports. Uh, Smoky Hill. It's the minutes are in there. There really wasn't a ton of um updates there that I had. Uh, special ed co-op. Uh, minister as well. Biggest thing. Um, we are still undergoing a little training on the IEP reports. I believe um will be reviewed by the state this coming October I believe last can't remember if
030it was last year at some point I think they were inadequate and so um our teachers went underwent a little bit more training trying to get that corrected so according to sher we should be we should be good >> all right any other board member reports. If not, we'll move on to principal reports. >> Sorry, I have to stand. I just have to be able to see you. >> All right. At elementary school, we currently have four interns and one student teacher from Fort Hayes. Um they're just coming into various grades here. Next semester, we will sure have another student teacher. And with all those interns, I have a feeling we're going to have more of those as well. So, we love having them. Last Wednesday, the members of the Plainville Fire Department were here
031for their annual fire safety presentation. They presented to preK through 2 grade as well as the daycare kiddos. Thursday, kindergarten and first grade enjoyed the pumpkin patch in Hayes. Last Friday, our fifth graders went to Stockton to participate in the H Heartland Community Foundation's Give Fest. Each one of them were given the $5 vouchers, two $5 vouchers to donate to their um organization of choice. I know they enjoyed that. Um next week, PTO will be hosting a book fair in conjunction with our parent teacher conferences. Our students will actually be previewing the book fair on Monday and Tuesday to make their wish list. And then PTO will staff the book fair on Tuesday, Wednesday, and then it'll conclude on Thursday at the end of conferences. Parent teacher conferences are held are going to be held
032Tuesday um October 21st and Thursday October 23rd. And then Thursday, October 30th, um the grade school staff and I will be at the North McDonald's for McDonald's teacher night and we will be selling cookies from 5 to 8 with 100% of the cookie sales coming back to the elementary school. And then last but not least of our busy month, our Halloween parties will take place on Friday, October 31st. And before our parties, we will be taking our kiddos out to Redbud Village to parade in their costumes. It's going to be a busy moment. >> Andy, what day did you say the McDonald's deal was? >> Thursday the 30th. >> Thank you. >> From 5 to 8. >> All right. Thanks, Okay, for the high school, uh there's a couple events and things I wanted to
033share with you. Um the first thing is I've started doing a uh newsletter that I've sent out to parents. Um hopefully I've got I think I've got most on there, but all of it was off school. Um really just using that to share additional information and and you know, keep everybody updated. Just another avenue um to do that. Um, we've shared our CAP scores with students. We had an assembly where we kind of went over here's what our scores are, here's kind of what it means and kind of discuss discuss some of those different things. Um, we've mailed scores to parents prior to parent teacher conferences. One of the things that I talked to teachers about today is that you know when we have the conferences on October 21st and 23rd um you know the
034idea is that you know obviously when parents come in you know we want them to discuss classroom and what's going on there with with the teachers and then if they have additional questions about hey what do the cap scores mean and what you know what does this exactly mean and kind of explain it to me then me and Miss Rudman will be there to kind of explain it go through it and and kind of update on uh on how going. Um, as far as sports, uh, I I talked to every coach and just said, "Hey, give me a little like where we at and kind of give me a little blurb about how we're doing." Uh, high school football's three and three. We won our last game against Syracuse 69 to 18. Uh, coach said
035he's had several players step up and he's been proud of them the last couple weeks. Uh, basically we're in a spot now where we have the by-week. If we win, we host the uh playoff game or the initial seated game and then if we lose, we'll have to travel. Um high school volleyball is nine and 16. Uh coach feels the team's improved a lot from last year and is is happy with kind of the progression. Um and then uh the MCEL pool C, we're hosting that as the ninth seed or we hosted that as the ninth seed. Um, cross country, uh, based on times, we could have two state qualifiers. So, uh, the regional is coming up in Ellis on October 25th. Uh, we've got Riley Rogers, who's time should puts him, you know, to
036where he's got a chance to qualify for state. And then, uh, Brian Trump is, uh, got a top 10 time and so she looks like she is going to have a good chance to qualify as well. And then our next uh event is on October 16th. Girls golf, I just got uh a text from Miss Rudman. We had one qualifier from that. They were in Goodland today. And uh Avery Grawick, who's been our top scorer for most of the year, she qualified for state. Uh junior high football, uh they're currently 6 and0. We won the last game versus Smith Center 46 to zero. Uh coach just wanted to recognize how hard they've worked. Outscored opponents 258 to 18. Some of the things he said, hey, they're a great group. They police themselves. They work hard.
037They hold each other accountable. So, he's been super happy with with how that's kind of all went. Um and then they're finishing up season tomorrow. And Russell Junior High volleyball uh are currently well, I don't know if they're still playing, but we were playing for the MCEL. uh we were hosting because we were the third seed. I believe they were when I left they were down to Hawky in the third uh match. So I I don't know how that turned out. Um and then we're finishing up the season. And then the final thing I had was our fundraiser request. Uh junior class uh would like to sell crispy cream donuts and use a school vehicle and trailer. We've done this the last several years uh for the junior class. So, we were just asking to
038keep that going. Any questions? If not, thank you. And we'll move on to superintendent's report. Okay. Um, I'm going to take you guys on a ride. I You should have my report in your packet, but then of course it never fails after I get it copied and I think of a few other things to add on. So, I do have a PowerPoint here or some items I'll I'll throw up on the screen that as we go along. Um, the first thing I'll u bring to your attention. I did get a letter uh in the email uh just a few days ago. is dated October 9th um from the K Kansas Kansas State Department of Ed. Uh just congratulating Clangville USD270 for the um last year we were awarded the gold star for graduation uh silver
039star for post-secary effectiveness and then for the 2024-25 the commissioner's award. We have the commissioners award with distinction. So, uh, those are those are just some recognitions that we have, uh, we've received them before in the past. In fact, we were, uh, we have two banners hanging in the gym that has some of those recognitions. So, obviously, Planeville is still continuing to do good things. We we had a great year last year and hopefully we'll continue to keep getting those recognitions as we as we continue on. So, anyway, just some exciting news there to to share with with that. Um, I also uh received this as as an email as well. We and I shared this with our teachers this morning at our our inservice. Um, last year was the first uh year of the
040KISSA 2.0 know uh process and you know so that obviously it's just the our accreditation model that we have to follow and requirements to meet there and so it was exciting to to get the certificate of accreditation for the as you can see effective of July 1 of 25 through June 30th of 26 so plainville USD270 again we're accredited and and uh we've met all the requirements there and of course today um today's inservice I feel like was a good first step in uh continuing the work not only that we needed to do as a district but uh meeting our goals and requirements for the direction that we're heading with our key accreditation for this year. So we are off on a good start. I feel like our teachers did an excellent job uh today
041and working and and digging through curriculum standards and and curriculum um you know the work the the curriculum books that they have in their hands as they're teaching each and every day. So um they they did a great job. they it was a full day of working and sitting around roundts and having conversations and checking boxes and seeing you know what standards they are hitting and and things and gaps that were discovered. So I think it's we're we're we're doing good things. Today was a good day. So oh as I'm talking about that here here's our pictures. So anyway, we I was telling Chris earlier that for for quite some time, you know, we've just always just when we've had our in-house in services, we've always just been in the cafeteria. Uh you know, it
042just makes for easy access to to the kitchen, you know, to to create get us some coffee and things like that. Of course, our ladies there were I still had some good help um getting getting donuts delivered, getting coffee, but we moved our inservice into the Cardinal Commons today. Um, like I said, the the conversations we were able to have just around the round tables, it just suited us for for the work that we needed to do today. And like I said, it was it was good. It was good. So, and again, we had snacks. Miss Doson did her part to provide snacks. So, we have leftover snacks. Feel free to come over and and dig in. And but anyway, good work. >> Wanted to just bring an update uh to you as far as
043guarding our our enrollment. The top line there at the top is our our district combined. Uh and then you can see the the the black line represent our elementary. The blue lines are junior high and high school um headcount. So, you know, when I look at this, of course, for the last several years, we've been reporting, you know, that our enrollment has taken some pretty significant jumps. In fact, if you go back to that 22 23 school year, we really saw quite an increase. And, you know, every year since then, we've been climbing. We are uh you know according to our September 20th count date I mean we're we're slightly I I guess down just a little bit but at the same time nothing I guess >> earthshattering you know I mean I'm kind of
044looking at more as maybe we're plateauing just a little bit you know so anyway just to to share that I also on your on your document I don't have it up on the screen but on your document there. I went back and kind of looked at our our FTE history and that that's the one thing I noticed there too is that you'll notice our FTE uh last year was at 404 and based upon um the reports and things that I've I've got done so far. From what I can tell, it looks like our our FTE will be somewhere around the 402. Now, that's not an audited FTE at this point. That's just preliminary numbers, but um you know it is I guess it's good to know that our maybe our FT is not quite you
045know going down as anyway just wanted to definitely bring that to your attention. Uh another thing that I I am working on and this is actually we we have this uh in the way to uh bring some information to our teachers actually next Thursday. Uh it's parent teacher conference night. Uh and it's a half a day school. So we'll have a normal, you know, be a 8 to 11:30 day with kids and then 11:30 dismissal. And then that afternoon, uh I've arranged for a team member from the school AI um team to to zoom in with us and provide some information um regarding the school AI. And I I definitely wanted to share that with you guys to tonight just so you're aware. So um what school AI provides of course AI technology uh to
046the school not just to teachers but to the kids as well. But what school AI really I guess you could say hangs hang their hat on what they're proud of is that they are doing all the work and doing all the things that they know schools um all the questions and and things that probably teachers administrators all those things that we think about or question when it comes to AI right so they are they're doing the work behind the scenes to provide the uh the safeguards and the safety measures to make sure that you know things, you know, when kids do work in with in the realm of AI, uh there's there's safety features around that. And so those of course the conversations um we have a DT meeting uh Wednesday morning. I'll definitely be
047bringing this to the to the conversation to talk with our DT team as well um to talk about that. But like I said, Thursday afternoon, there's a team member from school AI who's going to um walk our teachers through a lot of the tools and and the technology that the school AI offers. Uh our teachers will be able to see that there's going to be some great tools I think that they'll be able to utilize that help them with instructional pieces in the classroom. Of course, there will be tools there for for kids to use as well. So anyway, just wanted to bring that to your attention. any questions or anything that you may have, I'd be happy to help address those. There's obviously, you know, AI in schools is there's some interesting conversation, you
048know, around it. Uh, you know, we will I I do believe at some point time we we will need to be sitting down and and talking about maybe what the what our USD270 AI policy may look like in terms of, you know, what are the parameters that we want to make sure we have, you know, regarding that. But like I said, the the school AI, you know, they've I've I've been in touch with them now three times at least where I've been able to they're navigating me through the program and showing me all the things. And um I'm not I I have yet to run into any situation or anything that causes question or or you know steps outside I guess the boundaries of what what what I would consider safe or unsafe. So anyway,
049questions are good. Um I guess bouncing back into my my hard document or my copy there. Um I've been in conversation, you know, we do have uh we have three potential seats uh for the board uh coming up in in November. So and we have six candidates. So, I've been in conversation with with those potential candidates, just reaching out to them and and inviting them the opportunity to come in and visit with me. They've and they have those conversations have been good. I've just enjoyed, you know, asking or allowing them to ask questions and doing my part just to help give them some insight on on what it is like to serve on a board and potential things that come up on on in a board meeting and things like that. Another thing I want
050to bring it bring you up to speed on is a gentleman called Noah Parr. He's with it's called CNC Group out of Witchah. He he contacted me here um a week or so ago and um you know I took the time just to simply listen to him over the phone. He actually was in this area um visiting with some other schools and so he got a hold of me and and asked if he could stop by. So I've actually I have had an opportunity to meet him in person just for a short bit. Um, but what he does is he he takes or he's requested our um I'm trying to make sure I guess our last 12 months a year's worth of of energy bills, our our gas and electricity and then he will go
051through that and basically just kind of performs a efficiency study and um he he reassured me that it was a no obligation, no cost, just free information. So, I guess I kind of felt like, well, I'm I I'm always good with taking free information. So, I went ahead and went forward with that. I gave him gave him those uh that information and and then he's going through and just letting us know he'll get back with me and and let me know then of course disappears there's anything that possibly we might do to um save some costs on some energy. Um, obviously this is all happening, you know, in terms of obviously when we're talking about a a facility assessment with Gravity Works and we're potentially talking changes there. So, you know, I don't know. It's
052uh I don't necessarily know if this is anything that we will take action on anytime soon. I'm just looking at it more as just the information if anything. So, he I I'm probably going to guess he's going to come and say yes, we can we can save you money. Okay, good. But we may just have to say pause for now until we we figure out some other things. But I'm just it's information. So um and then I I do have the this is what I have here on the report. This is what I added here. And maybe I'll just I'll talk more once we get to that item on the agenda as far as the bond finance piece. So I'll just I'll wait till we get there on that one. In your packet two, I
053I did include some handouts. Do you guys have a copy of the Champions >> Champions for Schools? I wanted to definitely to bring this to your attention. As you can see, probably what would be considered I guess we would have options. We could either Oakley or Salina. I don't know which necessarily would be the the best pick, but um there is and I'm looking is her name on here. I'm not seeing it. There is a lady who actually I know she she actually she's a former Kansas State Board of Education member and I cannot think of her name right now. >> I can't either. >> You're you're see I can you know who I'm talking about, right? >> Yes, I can't. Anyway, she is uh she's kind of leading this charge for bringing not not
054just board members or administrator administrators um community members, you know, obviously who who want to advocate for public education and just simply bring those people into a room where they can we can have some conversation, share share things that are going on, you know, in in the rural schools and the public schools and things like that. And then of course there will be um uh this information that'll be collected you know of course will be information that will go to our legislators. Um you know could it definitely have some impact on some decision- making at the state level and and so you know um I've got this marked on my calendar. Um I you know I would love to go and not not by myself. I'd love to you know take anybody who'd like to
055go with me. And of course if there's I might reach out to see if there's anybody else in the community that would enjoy me. But I just, like I said, wanted to share that with you. If that looks like something you're interested, please please get with me and let me know. We can make a decision if we want to go east or west and we'll we'll head that way. >> Um I guess that other flyer I'm getting ahead of myself that this the CNC group you guys have. Yeah, you have that as well. That's that goes back to that Noah PAR. Okay. >> Sorry. So you can see I I guess I wanted to throw that in there because you can see that we there were some other Clearwater Garden City Community College. I mean
056there there's some just other school entities there in the state that it looks like they've utilized that resource. So share there. I think that's it. I think that's questions or anything. All right. If there's no additional comments, I'd look for a motion to approve reports. I'll >> make a motion. I'll >> second. >> Marlene and a all those in favor say I. >> I. >> Opposed. Motion carries. All right. We'll move on to number nine uh and discuss the USD 270 posted chapter. Stephanie is here to >> Stephanie's here to take that lead, >> provide some information. Hi, I think most of you know me. I'm Stephanie Gston. I'm here from Brook Sunny Hun or the hospital and I have a little bit of nostalgia because you know 50 plus years ago I went to
057first grade in this room even though it's been updated quite a bit. It's still pretty recognizable. It's kind of fun to be here. Um I'm here to discuss with you about a host starting a HOSA chapter here at the school. HOSA stands for or stood for um health occupation student association. They have updated it now. They call it future health care professionals but they still use the acronym hosted disability visits even they've been doing it. Um the hospital has really enjoyed the collaboration working with the school district. Um we've worked really closely with the daycare and that has gone really well. and we've wanted to see if we could get a chapter started for the last few years, but everything takes time and I guess we're just now getting around to working on this. Um,
058HOSA, they relate it to it's like the FFA of healthcare. With a hosted chapter, the students would they could take modules and learn about things like medical terminology, um, pharmarmacology, math, if they wanted to do a module in like physical therapy, they could do that. There's a whole curriculum and the students can pick what they would like to do. And then there are competitions they can go and attend. And so the first one is coming up very shortly. So we would not be able to do that. There is a state one in the spring and depending on how things go we would see if we would you know be able to do that. Um with this I do have an opportunity with the health works board which I am on. Um, we would have there
059is a four-year $4,000 a year grant and the first two years that is all done between the hospital and the health works board and then the last two years of that grant it is split between the hospital and the health works board and the school district. So that gives some money to get the program up and started and we don't have to do fundraising right off the bat. There are state and national dues because this is a very um structured organization. We're kind of behind I feel like in Plainville like a lot of other places in Kansas already have this and so there are state and national dues. So for that it is $20 a student and I don't know how you guys do with your other organizations if they charge dues or if they
060just raise the money and take it out of the money that's raised but those are things we can discuss later. And they even suggest maybe extra just so there'd be money to do things like a $25 do. Um, again, the first year or few years, we could probably use the grant money to cover that. Again, I also don't know how you guys um do with the travel, you know, like if the organization has to reimburse the school, if they travel to a competition or how all that works, but I guess the same thing we could sit and discuss that. Um, another thing would be um they would need to an advisor. And so, um, I talked a little bit with some people from the school and they said typically the school offers this as a
061supplemental to a teacher first to see if there was somebody that's interested. Um, preferably it would probably be someone that teaches a science class or a health type class. And um, if not, we could probably do it through the hospital, but we would prefer if you can find someone that would be interested on that um that it come from the school. And again, we could probably use the grant money to go towards the supplemental at least in the beginning um because I'm sure your budgets are already set for the year. Um and then we we could have health professionals come in and talk to the kids. What would really be ideal is like in a future year if we could get it off the ground um if it could be a class that is offered
062and students could take that class and they the teacher could use this curriculum that's already set up to teach through the class and it could be you know the whole class could take pharmarmacology math or you know each individual student could do their own projects whatever they wanted. There's also a lot of scholarships that are offered for students that are in hosted chapters. Like today, I just got an email from the state advisor and she said at Southwestern College, they're having a competition. Isn't that your alleg? And they're offering a full ride um for someone going into natural science and someone going into nursing. And so, again, it's a competition, but someone I mean, two people are going to win a full ride. And then I think Also, the kids that go to that competition,
063there will be someone that can get a full ride scholarship. So, it's really a great advantage for the kids and puts them ahead when they do get ready to go off to college or to just decide if there's something, you know, if that's what they want to do. It gives them a little bit of a chance to explore it before they head off spend the money on tuition before they really even know what they're getting themselves into. So, um yeah, you have handouts there in your packet. You guys can look it over. I don't know if you guys have any questions for me. >> So, you mentioned like the curriculum like they doing modules. So, is it's like a digital online based >> and so >> you were saying like just kind of as to
064get started they could they can work through these modules kind of on their own pace and and do things like that. >> Yeah. and they can choose their own. And then at the competitions, there's can be like individual events or there can be team events like again very much like, you know, we're all a little more used to that since it's been going for >> ever. But do you know those count as high school credit? We do have courses where >> those modules. No, I don't believe they're set up like that. It just it just teaches them and then to where they'll have the knowledge and then they'll be able to go in and do the competitions and like say some of the competitions are like just taking a test you know like on the
065pharmarmacology and math it would be the test and you come up with the right answer others are where they converse with the judges and get scored on things but I don't think they count as like a like a college credit or something but they could very easily worked into a >> Well, we have a biomed. >> Okay. Yeah. And I don't really know what classes you have. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Right. That's why I mean I we have a lot of kids that go through that pathway. >> So I I definitely when I heard about it, it was >> intriguing to >> I don't know districts around us that have >> Philipsburg does. >> Philipsburg because that might be a good way to reach out and find out how they're And there's um people within
066the state from other chapters that would be willing to come and talk and they could talk about it much better than >> I can. I'm obviously not doing it yet either, but would be very happy to help and and the hospital's happy to, you know, send people out to, you know, talk with the kids or if they have a day where they'd like to hear from a physical therapist or, you know, just whatever they're wanting. We'll be glad to fill those slots and get kids interested because really it helps you guys but it helps us. Um >> you know we've learned that grow your own is the best thing for us here in our town and you know people grow up here they're likely to stay and hopefully come work for us. >> Do you
067have I know uh you know the opening day you came in and spoke about hey this is a possibility. >> How many kids did you end up having >> that day? And that's part of this delay. I had to get kid I had to get enough kids before I could come and present. I had to get enough kids to get a chapter. So I came opening day and talked to the kids. And from that I only had five kids. We had our first meeting and a meeting just to talk about what we wanted to do and go forward. Then at the career fair I got signed up to 21 kids. So but then I haven't been able to do anything because the next step is getting a the approval for a chapter. Um, this year
068we would be I don't know if I want to say we we would not be as strong as we might be in other years since we're getting a very late start, but um I think it could be a really neat thing for like I said for both you guys and for us at the hospital or for any healthcare facility profession. >> Well, I you know I'll throw this in there. I mean, I just like and you mentioned too, I mean, just the what we've been able to accomplish together with the work through the daycarees and and partnering together like that. I mean, that's been a that's been a very positive experience. And and you know, we we were talking too that the number of kids that we do have um even before they're finished in
069high school now, they'll they'll have their uh CNA, am I saying right? Yes. Their CNA certificates. I mean, they're >> we've we've seen quite a few kids take that route. So, I mean, it's >> it is it is it's neat. It's it's kind of encouraging to think about, like you said, the grow your own um >> idea of how many kids we can get on that path and keep them here in Planeville. >> And I think it's kind of to me when we were talking about it, uh it's a lot like FFA. It exposes you to what is out there, uh like different career paths and stuff. So it's I think that exposure is important too so they can see what else is all available. >> Yeah. Because you know we have people oh some
070of your teachers do offer like maybe they need to come do a job shadow and it's maybe for an English class but you know they do it and you know everybody's knows the obvious you know they want to come be nurses or and a lot of the kids are interested in physical therapy because they've had the injury with their sports but nobody ever thinks about like the lab. I mean, you know, you get your blood drawn, but very few people have been back in our lab and it's big and it's not just drawing your blood. I mean, it's running all these machines and doing all these things. And I think the kids at the career fair were really excited about radiology because we brought, you know, the radiology department, some of them out. And then
071a lot of the kids weren't thinking that. They're like, "Oh, that's, you know, really neat." And so, I don't know. We would love to get more interest started. And then I'm probably jumping the gun here, but on the health works board, we just got a really big grant and it's going to be for apprenticeships. And so that'll be something else. I mean, we just got it like last month, so I don't know how it's all going to work, but um really neat to where a lot of the places they offer maybe like for four students to come and apprentice and they like the same thing have to try out, but then like maybe like for seniors, they could come apprentice at the hospital and come out so many hours a week and go through the
072different departments. And that is unhos. That's a whole another subject, but something that may be um coming on the same title lines. >> sounds interesting. >> I would I mean I'd like to see if we could reach out to Frisburg and find out how they're >> Joe was already there was actually conversations today about some stuff. I might just make it a two. >> You want to talk about this and then we talk about bring it back next month then talk about getting it started >> or if we could find out how it kind of all work and but I know I mean I know that's a really strong pathway that we have a lot of kids that have been through that pathway so I think it'd be a good fit. >> Yeah. >> Okay.
073I'll be looking for you. >> All right. Thank you, Stephanie. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you very much. >> Mr. Dixon's class. >> Oh, did you leave now? >> You're not all class. I put in an hour. >> Uh, the next item or I guess I Sorry. >> No, you're fine. Yeah, we're ready for Yeah, we're ready for gravity works. Sorry, I was >> I think I Yep. Hi Vince. Can you hear me? Okay. >> Oh shoot. >> Hold on. Test. Test. One. Two. Test. Test >> test. >> Yeah, you have to. >> Mr. Wyers, you may have to. Am I on the right? Let's see. >> Which one? That would be >> digital output right there. >> Vince, can can you say something again? >> I can say something. >> There we go. There we
074go. That's better. All right, Vince, welcome again. Uh, of course, you and I had an opportunity to visit earlier today, but um I guess I've got this camera pointed at me, but the rest of the board, they are in here. Uh, so and we've got you up on the we've got you up on the screen, so we can we can see and hear you just fine now. So, >> well, yeah. Well, first of all, thank you. Thanks for allowing me to address the board uh via this Zoom call. I appreciate that. Um, I just wanted to uh, as Chris and I spoke this morning, I felt important just to kind of give you guys an update. I want to keep you guys apprised of what we're doing. So, uh, excuse me. So, that that's what
075I'm here to do tonight. I don't really have any information to to pass out or generally, you know, anything that's in a prepared form to submit, but um, I'll give you an update of what we're doing. Excuse me. Uh we were uh on site all day on the first Wednesday of last week, walking all the buildings and meeting with Chris, meeting with uh David Sturgeon and um flying a drone around the property. Maybe you heard about some of that, but we were in and out of in and out of buildings from um morning till I think I I left a little after 5:00. Um, so I appreciate the uh accommodating us. I appreciate um Chris's work and his time spent that day. And uh it was it was a full day. Certainly a full day.
076Um, so what we did there was we photographed, we documented, um, and made notes of what we were seeing and and, uh, our job now is to take all that and and compare it to compare to our our professional opinions and what we see as well as code uh, verification on a few things that we noticed and um, simply just to give you a a baseline assessment of what the conditions of your physical facilities. Some of it is going to be no surprise to you. Some of it might be a surprise to you as we move forward as well. So, that's what we're doing now is basically disseminating and organizing that information, putting it together in report form for you with pictures and and notes and that kind of thing and uh summaries of what
077we what we saw. That's what we're doing right now. As well as getting ready for uh a a facilities committee meeting on the on Wednesday the 15th. We'll be up there that evening for a 7 o'clock meeting. That'll probably be a hour, hour and a half meeting with that group just to go through what it is uh uh that the district sees as as uh basically we're going to run through uh the logistics of the bond that we're looking at, the timelines that we're looking at, and some of the projects and some or some of the work that we see uh could be identified and used for those dollars that best suits. and our our goal is to is to always do everything that best suits the long range planning of the district. Um so
078that's what we'll help that's what that committee will help us or we will help that committee little both. We'll work back and forth. Um, also trying to gauge some see if we can't get some public uh uh see if that committee can offer any any insights on public support and kind of where what do we need to be concerned about as we move forward with some of this planning. Um, our first meeting in October or yeah Wednesday, we'll talk about bond logistics. We'll introduce the bond potential bond projects that have been clearly identified. uh get from them some some perception of community support. Um we can also talk about at that time do we does it make sense to to kind of do a district-wide survey to kind of gauge some community support? Um, and
079then uh identify and talk about other district pressures, some increasing enrollments you guys are working with and and decreasing valuation, some of those pressures just so that committee kind of gets a good picture of what it is that we're wrestling with here moving forward. Um, and then we'll end the day with those to to think about once. We kind of like to go through a process of of uh perceptions, realities, and vision. Um we're trying to uh to be pretty compressed about how we do that. Plus, uh in this case, it's it's some of it's pretty pretty cut and dry and straightforward. You know, you've got uh a bond that's retiring. We want to make best use of asking the public to to consider renewing it and and what would we use it for? So,
080we do have a we do have a more specified task than some districts where we uh kind of go through long range planning and strategic planning and those kind of things. We kind of really kind of honed in on a few things here. Um we do we have been in contact with uh bond council um and enough to know that we're dealing with about um $4.5 million is the total available for for in the mill levy that to be renewed and I think that's about 5.7 mills. Is that right Chris? 5.7 or 52 57. Yep. Y >> and um they're also doing some math for us on uh what what mill levy increases might above that might look like. Um and so we can consider whether this is I I to my my opinion I
081think we hone in on what that dollar figure that 4.5 or that 5.7 mills looks like and how would be the best way for the district to ask for that. And then if there's anything addition to that, you could maybe look at a two question idea that u I think that's something that committee will will will guide through and and if there's a recommendation that comes out of that that'll be that'll be for them to to to work through. That's the meeting one. Meeting two, we will provide dollars, actual dollars and estimates to this to all of those projects we talked about in meeting one. Um and then uh and then start to identify some some wants. That's where that that that two question opportunity comes up and it may or may not be uh
082it may not go anywhere. If that's case that's fine. We just want to make sure we that uh that we kind of post that. And then meeting three, we'll provide additional updated dollars and develop some priorities and uh match bond dollars to projects. And uh in question four, meeting four, we're proposing a uh public forum. I think it's important that your public have a chance to see what this committee is working on before it gets to the board. Uh so this committee then has a chance to react to some of the public feedback before it makes any kind of presentation to the board. We're anticipating a presentation to the board um and recommendation to the board in December 8th. Um so that that will that will be twofold. it'll be a recommendation and it'll come
083with a question to be acted. Um, so that's why it's important also in the next few moments that I I be a part of or I I give the board updates so that you're aware not December 8th is not a not a not a new topic for you. You'll know what what the committee's been working on. You'll know uh kind of what's been going on so that you stay informed uh headed up to that December 8th meantime. Um, a few things I think I want to share that we identified just kind of the high level stuff. Um, as we walked around, we're going to be things that jumped out at us. Uh, in a lot of cases, there's some site grading amendments that you should consider. Not all of these are big dollars, but some
084of them need to be in the mix. When I say site grading amendments, there's lots lots of places where you've got uh your sight your grading that drains back towards the building which causes water infiltration back into your foundations and just kind of exacerbates other problems. Uh tuck pointing the 1938 building and the and the high school building all have some pretty significant challenges with tuck pointing brick mortar. You've got some very loose bricks in the 1938 building. So that's something that needs to be taken care of. the stone gym. Um, believe it or not, the tuck pointing didn't look terrible. I mean, there's some of the isolated stuff to do. Uh, other than that down by the sidewalk where you've got a lot of free thaw issues and and crumbling stone and I think
085we figured out a way to deal with that um and help that situation and you've got a sidewalk that drains right into that building. And uh, so I think there's there's a way we could curb that or deal with that. So there are solutions to it, but I we identified it as something that really needs to be addressed. Um code compliance. Your buildings are living in a grandfathered code issue. Quite frankly, none of them really fit today's code compliance, which shouldn't be a surprise. The last major project was 1980. So I don't think I was surprised at that either. And it's not a big deal. They're living grandfather. The only thing that comes to only time that really raises its head is when you do something inside the building. All of a sudden you have
086to start bringing that area up into code compliance. Um at this point we're not talking about wholesale renovations or anything like that. So that's we're going to identify a few things that we think you should be aware of and it'll be up to the board decide how you know your timing on dealing with that. um ADA up there are some there are you know uh for example um in that would be uh some fire alarm stuff um also some some dealing with some fire doors that aren't graded appropriately uh in the elementary building a few things like that or we can help the situation um without without postale renovations full code compliance would be sprinkler systems and a lot of fire rated corridors really aren't very feasible for you guys aren't required as you live
087in your current grandfather situation. Uh ADA upgrades, that's probably one of the biggest ones that jumps out is accessibility around the building. We talked a little bit today about the lift and what was happening with that and getting it back up and running. Um you've got several, you know, hardware issues where there's knob in some areas and not and lever in others and not consistent there. would recommend that. Uh there's some door clearances and stuff like that. We talked about accommodating um spectators at the football stadium. Few things like that that uh as you go through the thing about ADA compliance. Um, so long as the work we do is is uh is is uh maintenance in in in in type like roof replacement or HVAC or something like that, then your ADA just kind
088of becomes your your decision on whether you want to do it or not. Again, you're living in a grandfather world. Unless with with the exception that in the ADA arena, if someone were to file a complaint and complain, you'd be forced to do something about it. That's it's really something that is complaint driven in terms of enforcement. Um, a lot of districts, a lot of it's it's building code to do it when you build something new. If you don't have it yet, then it's grandfathered until somebody complains about it and then you don't have any choice but to do it. So just kind of and we'll spell out a little bit better for you in our report where where your thresholds would be. Um so that's that's what we see for ADA storm shelters. Um,
089I would I would note that a lot of you got some designated and they look like and they are certainly hardened areas better than the rest of the building, but they are not they are not designed really to to withstand tornado force wind. So that's another thing that's that's grandfathered in. New education facilities require that storm shelters be provided, but if not building a new building or making significant addition, then it's it's your your call. Um, and we will offer some some uh opinion on how to deal with some of those storm shelter designations. They're not accessible. Uh, difficult to get into. You're aware of what they what they are. So, that's kind of the building side and site. you know, mechanically. Um, we certainly noticed that the, uh, the high school and the centralized
090plant for the high school is steamed and not hot water, which has challenges to it, but has, but has lasted remarkably well for you over the years. But your new boiler is a 1984 boiler. And, uh, one down there that's that's disconnected and dead and another one that's that's really towards the end of the slide. So and when we start working with that does it make sense to think about something other than steam controls you integrate air air conditioning in with that system. So we are right now working with the engineers we teamed up with to talk about what is a good way to recommend moving forward with with that. There are there isn't it's not a single path. There's a there's now there's we can think of three or four ways to make that
091present that to you and then that's that's how to move forward. Remarkable. Um quite frankly, you know, that high school building shows signs of of high humidity uh in the building. That's kind of indicative of that type of system. Um also likely, you know, that type of system doesn't offer the fresh air requirements that we deal with today and those kind of things. So, um that's that's it'll all be a part of that report back to you. Um other equipment around the district, um we've got a handful of them that are that are doing fine and some of them getting pretty close to their individ where we think the most risk is in the in that equipment for you. um electrical upgrades, electrical systems. The high school as another again u has an obsolete and
092quite frankly been past has been deemed dangerous electrical system. Um Federal Pacific Gear is is is outdated and is not in business anymore and has been the culprit of many fires in the past. So we certainly recommend that that be be something that that be have attention. um LED lighting. I think uh the whole district is all still in fluorescent lighting. We think we could you could find some significant uh utility savings by making some of these changes which uh we hope to be able to demonstrate will free up some annual budget dollars for you that are notable. Um so, uh there some of those those kind of things that we're working on to present to you. plumbing. There's some cast iron and galvanized piping that needs to be addressed. Certainly, the upstairs boys restroom
093in the 1938 building has got long-term problems that uh that are part of that. And uh kitchen hood is not a fire suppression kitchen hood, which is a risk for you with the cooking and everything that happens in the kitchen. Um, but otherwise I think on a positive note, uh, those things that you touch and feel every day, your district's been doing a good job of finishes and keeping keeping care of things. Um, it's obvious you've done you've got a a program with floor replacement and made some upgrades to carpet tiles and that kind of thing. So all those things that are are shorter lifespan and and you know touch are u are in good shape. Um also would say uh didn't see any didn't see significant issues in terms of structural movement in your
094buildings. There are some settling cracks which are not to be uh they weren't alarming uh in in the age and type of construction that we're dealing with. Um, we didn't see anything that you know, you know, thought, gosh, I need to stop and be a structural engineer here and look at this. Certainly did not see any of that. So, uh, your buildings are on good foundations and and yes, there's some there's some settling movement, but that's to be expected in the age of buildings that you've got in the in the the dry and wet seasons that they've experienced over the over the time over the course of years. Um there is uh one place that caught my attention that I want to do a little more homework on and that's some structural movement in the
095south east corner of the gym in the high school up high. There's some blocks that show cracks and moving that that that are kind of uncharacteristics of that location. So that's the only one that caught my attention. Nothing nothing imminent, but but certainly I I don't know what would cause what it's doing there. Um, so some more homework there's uh in in to be called. So that's really what I've got as a report. Um, you guys have any questions of me moving forward? >> When you said southeast corner of the gym, talking big cardinal gym or high school gym on the north side of the street? >> High school gym on the north side of the street. Yes. the Cardinal Gym. Uh that's a pretty new building. Um and we didn't see anything there. I
096know there's been discussions about the bleachers. Um so, but we didn't, you know, that that building is we we feel like meets current code compliance. It's got appropriate firewalls where we would anticipate them and those kind of things. I would call out I would say that we did get Chris shared with us the report the roofing report done by Corel and then we flew a drone around. I didn't climb up the roofs, but we flew a drone around and took some pretty detailed images of your roofs. Um, we certainly agree that the high school roof it's it's time. Um, and it's certainly the 1938 building, it's time. The stone uh stone uh uh gym, it's time. The the Cardinal gym, they mentioned it as a, you know, time to do something with it. It certainly
097shows some hill damage. I'm not ready to sign off that says, you know, to to jump into that camp that it's time to replace it. It's certainly got some aesthetic issues from hail damage, but um I and Chris, I guess, let me know if you guys are seeing some significant leak issues. We didn't see evidence of it. Um there's probably some joints and some things to deal with, but I did not find I have not yet, let's put it that way, seen the need to uh to replace that roof the way it's proposed in their report. So, we'll keep doing that homework um to see if we see that missed something. But um in terms of wholesale replacement and covering up like they recommended, I'm I'm not ready to say that that's something that's in
098the short term. >> Sounds good. Looking forward to the full report. >> Yeah. So, we're it's it's pretty detailed. We're still working through that. Hopefully within the next few weeks, we'll be able to to share that as well. >> That sounds great. >> Thanks for the update. >> Yes. Thank you very much, Vince. >> Have a good evening. >> All right. Thank you very much. Have a good evening. >> Yes. Thank you, Vince. Thank you for joining us. >> Thank you. All right. So, we'll move on to 11 uh proposed uh bond planning schedule, >> which is the >> Yeah. >> attachment. >> Yeah. And really, uh he which he kind of >> he kind of did really kind of cover kind of ran through those dates. I just wanted it really was just information
099for you guys just to kind of see that he and I we've obviously spent some time working together. He and and to give credit where credit was due. I mean, he he's done a big piece of this, but he and I did sit time sit down and just talk about, you know, whether or not we we feel like these days can work. And um you know, I think this is definitely this is just if anything, it's holding my feet to the fire to to make sure I'm getting my homework done in time for him as well. So, I appreciate that. He did mention too that uh this Wednesday, October 15th, is our first line committee meeting. So that'll be interesting to to bring that crew in and have that conversation. But anyway, yeah, I really
100just to save some time, he's pretty much covered that. So if you guys are noticing anything or any questions that's so we'll move on to 11B which is the uh bond financial institution and yeah and and so on top of just the conversations of course that I've been having with Vince I also wanted to make you guys were aware that I've also been in conversation with uh Clayton Clayton Kelly with Piper Sandler and also then a David Artberry with Stifle. The information that I gave that you have in your packet, uh, you know, as you can see, it's really nothing necessarily real formal. These are not these are all just preliminary numbers that they just shared with me as as just a reference. Um, but you know, that's just the other piece of this. Of
101course, you know, when going through a bond, you're going to have your your architect crew, which we've got that with Gravity Works. And of course, we need to have a financial uh a financial side of this. And so, I just feel, you know, again, when you when you're taking into consideration our timeline and just those hardcore set dates that we've set for ourselves, I did not want to put us in a position that we were going to hit a roadblock. um you know when it came to questions or anything that we need to do well on the financial side of things. So I just felt like let's go ahead and and have that conversation tonight and make a decision on which direction we want to go whether it's through Piper Sandler or Stifle. I'll also
102share to you know both of these gentlemen I've talked to they are they're both familiar with Planeville. We've they've both David Artberry in fact he's he informed me that he he himself was part of the the bond that we currently have in place right now. Um he had said that that was back in 2015. He had been a part of that. So he was familiar with our school but so is Clayton Kelly with Ciphel. I mean with excuse me with Piper Sandler. I feel um you know both gentlemen have been wonderful to to talk with and and share information with. My understanding right now is our current financial um you know banker that we have currently right now is with the Piper Sandler and and Clayton Kelly is the one who's been managing that. So
103I guess if you're going to ask me my opinion I mean I would just assume we just continue on with them is because that's who we currently have. >> Other than that I don't even know if I have really much more to add to that as far as why why would he be a >> I mean the main thing is they've both been responsive and >> yep they have >> and uh and then yeah it's just kind of getting it in place because Vince will start working with them on trying to figure out what the options are for >> dollars and and all those kinds of questions. So >> So I you know it it very much should have been on the agenda. And I apologize that it was a late edition, but I think
104this will definitely help us just keep things moving, you know, as we are. It'll just be one less thing, you know, that we'll have to tackle later on. We can we can get this set. I can make contact with those and let them know which direction we're going and we can keep moving. So, Any questions? If not, would somebody like to make a motion? >> Make a motion >> for Piper Stanley to continue with that. >> Yeah, I'll make the motion. >> Okay. Cassie, >> I'll second. >> Marlene with the second. All those in favor say I. I >> opposed. Motion carries. All right, we'll move on to number 12, approval of gifts and grants. Uh if you were at the football game Friday night, um I joined Sam Jackson and First State Bank down
105at this uh down at the track and First State Bank um gave this the gift. It was I should have wrote it down. I can't remember. Was it in the B like 4,000 I think and some. So this is something they've done before in the past. So, uh, obviously just wanted to thank them for for doing that and their their continued support for the school. So, >> no, it's 4,000. You said >> I >> somewhere >> who is there and I I can't tell. >> Somewhere in that ballpark. >> Yeah. >> Do we need a motion to approve those gifts >> usually? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> So, I'd look for a motion to >> I did provide you the line. Thank First State Bank for their support and uh look for a motion to
106approve that gift. >> I'll move that we accept the uh gift granted to us by First State Bank. >> Thank Z and a second. >> All those in favor say I. I. Opposed. >> Motion carries. All right, we'll move on to uh the code of conduct policy. Uh Chris said they had a really good discussions when they all got back together. >> Yeah. So you guys have a pillowcoded copy real quick. >> Yes. >> So uh you know if if you can remember of course I brought just that simple draft uh last month. So what's in black was uh is what was in that original draft. What's in blue are are some recommendations that I had um added. And then what's in red is additions or conversations in that we had with through our coaches
107meeting. And so Mrs. Rudman had included those in there. So um you know I would say as you can see as you're looking I guess to bring the highlights or the I guess would be the the bigger turning points that we we talked about through that conversation was that um that first draft was a uh first defense second offense policy. uh the coaches, they felt that having a third offense would maybe better fit the direction they would like to go. Um so still the first offense was a um a warning. A second offense would be a fiveweek uh suspension and then a third offense then would be the the removal from activities. >> Well, this says one game or one event, right? Not the first offense you said is a warning. >> Um well, let's
108see. One game or one event. Yes. Sorry. >> Okay. Yes. No, I want to make sure. >> Yes. Sorry. My apologies. So, yes, they one game, one event. Yes. First offense. Second offense then would be a extended five week. And then >> I have a question about the the blue part in the first offense. I'm just wondering about >> what's our policy on like on ineligibility >> like if if a student or if an athlete's ineligible do they get that same >> I don't know how that works >> if a student's ineligible though they do not they do not travel with the team >> I kind of feel like that should be the same >> right because >> I almost feel like that's >> I feel like this is a fraction that's worse than that
109>> not to downplay grades of course but >> you know what I I kind of feel like it should they shouldn't be able to participate because that's in my opinion I think that maybe would have resonate maybe a little bit better if they're not even included >> might make them think twice before. >> Um >> I don't know that's >> that went back to my argument there when we had this discussion. So you're you're preaching to the choir here because I agree. You know, like I said, should they be banned? No. >> Do we take them? No. If they want to attend, they can attend and be be positive and supportive, but they get there themselves. But we don't we don't provide the transition. >> And they don't sit with the team. They don't stand
110on the sidelines or whatever the event is. >> That that's like I said, that's that's my my opinion. So, I just um any student under the first offense infraction just simply I'm going to take out have the option to travel with >> um and I'm just going to say will not right will not travel with their team organization. Y okay taking out the blue part. >> Yeah. Do do we need to specify like I don't know if it's really in there or not. Um, >> well, I guess >> you won't even be with the team. Even if like if a parent brings them, >> you're not sitting with the team. You're not participating with the team in any way. I see in any way participate in any other role. I mean that was where I
111guess I would say there was some some coaches were saying that in the event that they are there they feel like them sitting there on the bench supporting the team was that's what they want then others same thing like they agreed like nope if they're in trouble they're not even getting on the bus so >> well and how they did it at Walkeini for the volleyball side of that's all I can speak to I didn't go to Okay. But they sat in the stands. They didn't set I mean, of course, it's a limited space. >> I can speak to the football. They did. They weren't on the sidelines. >> Yeah. Like I said, I mean, it's it's one of those deals again, you know, they get themselves there. >> I sand sideline, whatever. I mean,
112volleyball, basketball, you're going to be limited as to where they can sit anyway. You know, you're going to have rosters that are there, you know. So, you know, like I said, if they want to, I just don't like the fact that we took them, you know, you know, that we're we're providing that transportation. I don't have a problem with them being there, you know, 100%. Yeah. Be there to support your team. You let the team down, you know. >> So, leave that up to the coach response. >> I would I wouldn't have a problem with that because I don't want to override everything the coaches are doing. it's their programs, you know, and but at the same time, as a as a >> board member, >> I do have to a stand to take that
113we don't provide the transportation. I mean, it's not it's not a huge detriment, you know, it's how bad do you guys want to be there to support team? >> Yep. >> We keep referring back to like the support of the team. Well, you're not really supporting your team if you're involved in these activities when you know, >> right, >> when you know ahead of time, this is going to hurt my team. I just think it it's again my opinion I think it's more of a hit to them like if if you can't people can't see you with your team they're going to wonder why. Not that >> I'm condoning like that it's really people's business to be whatever. But I mean you went out there and you made the choice knowing the policy. So I
114don't think that you should be able to participate at all with for that. I mean it's one game, one event. >> I don't think you should be associated with the team at all because you let the team down. That's part of the discipline. I think >> well >> I'm one >> and and again that goes to like I have a problem doing this as a board. I I I just do I you know like I said the last time we're it's a complete umbrella deal you know to where we're dictating how should we probably but at the same time I think we hire these coaches we hire these teachers to run their programs you know do we need to be uniform okay let's be uniform so I get why we're doing this right but at
115the same time I don't feel like we need to have to micromanage every aspect of everything involved with it at That makes sense. If you understand where I'm coming from, do they need to pay? Yeah, they need, like I said, there's some things here and there that I that I've made clear where I'm at on it. >> The coach is going to run their program. If the coach wants them to stand there and not be able to participate, that's their directive to do that. If they want to be the one that said no, they shouldn't be able to participate, they need to sit in the stands or not even be there, then I think we leave that up to them to run in order to run their program. if that I mean I don't think
116it's like a micromanaging in that aspect cuz I just think that's well that's just part of the policy. >> Well Cassie then you're saying yeah but what I'm saying is is we're if if we dial it all the way into the net you know what then that's what we're doing you know I just look at it as a simple >> Yeah. Oh I agree like that. >> Yeah. And parts of it I like to leave up to them, you know, and and we do leave, you know, conditioning or any, you know, any of those other actions that the coaches want to take, they're still allowed to take and those kinds of things because, >> you know, they're also kids and we're trying to teach them. So being able to you know depending upon how they
117want to use it as a learning lesson you know it gives them a little bit of flexibility to >> the other the other side of this coin too is >> is that they are there they have taken it upon themselves to get themselves there >> you know at the same time that's another aspect of it to as a learning deal that we didn't provide the transportation they they I mean and now it's a home game that's you got a point right but I'm talking everything that we had when this happened this time around. God, I hope that this never happens again. I don't want to I don't want to have to deal with it. It's the first time that we've had to deal with it since I've been on here and I know there's been
118a couple issues here and there and it was handled in internally with the coaching. Okay, but here's where we are now. And you know, at that point, it's just like I said, we can micromanage and I'm not that's probably the wrong word is how I you know, but at the same time, it is their program to run as well. And I don't want to be saying this is how it has to be >> done. You know, that's where I'm >> Yeah, I I see what you're saying, too. >> I still have the same opinion about, >> but I I can see what you're saying. >> I see what you're saying. >> The conditioning and all of that. Yeah, sure. Leave whatever that up. But I look at it. This is the policy. That's I don't
119know. It's one game at the end of the day. It's not like >> Yeah. >> Three. >> The other aspect that I do like about this, there is a second warning in there. I mean, we go from one and then strength suspension for the rest of the year. >> I mean, >> yeah, there's more. >> That's pretty That was pretty harsh. And that's what kind of how I took that. >> That's kind of how that's kind of why they from what I understood, that's kind of why they went to the third defense. >> Yeah, you screw up pretty hot. Nobody blame but yourself. >> And the five weeks is not I mean that's that's not that's not nothing. >> No, >> especially when depending on what it happens, you know, >> you know, >> could
120be the rest of the season. >> Yeah. >> It could carry over into the next season. >> Yeah. >> I mean, >> yeah. >> So, >> I like I like the because that was going to be one of my things if we how in depth we were is that was going to be one of my deals is if we go straight from one and then boom, you're done for the calendar year. I mean >> because and I mean because ultimately the goal is to correct >> yes >> the action not I mean the goal isn't to punish them and kick them out of activities you know >> uh it's to try and use it all as a learning lesson >> leaders and >> do the right thing >> because we care >> and keep them
121accountable because your actions are going to have consequences. Well, yeah. And >> so, yeah, >> God forbid, we don't want any consequences that they can >> come back from. >> The other thing I bring to your attention and it's on that second page. It's the extra quicker participation through class. Uh, this was a suggestion that Mr. flax. I feel like he did a good job of of thinking about bringing it to the table is that you know in the event that it's one of his students and not just I mean he was using his class as the example but it could be some others that if it's a if it's an event or activity that you know requires the kids earning grade points um you know he did not want that to be one of
122the reason or one of the events that we would hold them from. You know, for example, like for him, he does provide class participation points for the winter Christmas program. >> You know, that might be the the next event, but he felt like that would that wouldn't be good to hold that kid out of that and then not >> allow that kid to earn those points for that class. >> And and to to his point, I don't feel like that's the type of event that we're talking about. >> I'm talking say you're going to uh use it contest. >> Yes. or something like that, then >> that's what he was saying to >> now if we're going to league league contest that's going to be the thing I'm going to hold you out. >> Yeah.
123Now, I don't think anything locally like as far as the winter concerts and the all that I I don't think that would I totally agree. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> so anyway, I was I was appreciative that he brought that. >> Absolutely. Yeah. So once we remove the travel portion in the wording, is everybody good or you still read? You can read. >> Sorry, I'm reading the other blue up. >> Yeah, you're fine. You're fine. So, we're removing the travel >> like they can't travel with the team. But as far as sitting with the team on the sidelines, that's going to be up to the coaches. Is that what I understand? >> That's what I made the note. It would be coaches. >> That would be my That would be my opinion on it. >> Yeah.
124they won't be allowed to participate in any way in any other role other than positively supporting their teammates and members just like it's stated there in whichever way the coach or sponsor sees fit. >> So I was leaving. >> So if I I'm fine with that. I mean, like I said, you know, >> my opinion still stands, but >> well, and I, you know, I hope >> well, I hope we've all learned from this whole deal as a coaches as well. You know, optics play a big play a big part too. So maybe hopefully never again that we have to deal with it but if we does cross it you know they'll take some consideration into optics and different things too as to uh you know like I said I I I don't want to
125limit their their >> and that's the thing I think is with when they met they had some people were people were on both sides of the issues as well of a lot of these issues as Well, and this was the compromise that they developed through the process. >> But I think they I think in this process though, I think they also had some from what I understand some really good conversations >> as a group >> and I think everybody is on >> good page now as a group and >> this was something >> and ready to move forward. >> Y Um, I was just actually checking my calendar. Mrs. Rudman and I, we actually, so we've got it on our calendar that we are, you know, of course, in the event that uh, we approve
126it tonight, we've got it set in our calendar that we are going to be going over this with 7 through 12 students uh, tomorrow so that they are aware and they're informed. Um, so that is on the calendar of to-dos for even as early as quick as tomorrow. So, we'll we'll make sure that that that takes place and we'll just definitely explain it, make sure that it's clear, make sure that everybody understands where things are moving on from this point. To remediate what Scott said, hopefully it just is not a thing we worry about. Yeah, >> it just sucks because I've been a part of sports and programs and coaching and you know now this side of it for a lot of years and this is the I know like I said there's been some
127things here and there over the years but >> this is the first time it's really rare to bur its head. So hopefully hopefully not again, but at least we have something. >> So yes, >> I move to approve that code of conduct with the edit that we had. >> I will second it. >> All right. And those in favor say I. >> I. >> Opposed. Motion carries. All right. We will move on to uh there's a copy of the five-year facility plan. with everything that's happened, we haven't had a chance to schedule the uh walkth through. And I think now Chris and I kind of talked to it now. It kind of makes sense to wait until we get this report back so that to do the walk through because we'll have a lot more
128information when we do it. >> Yeah. >> Uh and whether we do it during the day or in the evening or however it is. But >> uh at this point, >> it kind of just makes sense to put it off. So >> yeah, >> until then. So all those extra things fall on our plate just happen to work work out for the for us to do it this way. I agree. So I did just try to go through and um obviously projects that were completed trying to follow kind of what Mrs. Garing's color coding system was. Uh obviously the things that are completed are in gray so you can kind of see I mean there's there's quite a bit of gray there. We've we've completed a lot of good projects but obviously then you know
129some things some things that didn't get addressed in 25 or excuse me 24 25 you know sliding them over you know and of course we'll see what love the report comes back we might be some of these that we have as 26 27 items very well might just be more priority this year Pretty soon you can hide a couple columns and then >> Yep. Yeah. Move over. >> We're getting close to that point, aren't we? Yeah. Going to have to start moving it over a little bit. >> All right. So, number 15, we'll move on to approval of new site count soul members. Uh, for the most part, we we definitely just have a a good portion of our group still coming back to us. Um, Ben and Kate of course were our junior representatives
130last year, so they they just jumped into their senior roles this year. I had both of those. Uh, I put them on the task of him going out and having the conversations. Uh, so they bit went and talked to Reed and Kate went and visited with Shelby for me. And of course, Mrs. Dobson jump coming on board with this as the new elementary principal. So, it's really just a matter of approving those two junior representatives to join our group and be a part of those conversations. >> We got a good group. We do >> make that motion to >> Yeah. Second it. >> Cassie, all those in favor say I. >> I. >> Opposed? Motion carries. All right. We move on to number 16. Approval of service agreement for Mapson Miller. I can't remember you
131guys have those. >> You do have the puppies. Okay. >> Um the only thing um I think Sharon was the one that brought this to my attention. It's the second to last page. They're not numbered, but I guess I guess you got the signature page on the back. This would be your last page of information. It let's see one two three four the fifth paragraph down. Our fees for these services will be held at our standard rates. It is understood that our fees do not exceed 9200. Sharon just pointed out to me that that of course like anything else it's it's increased a little bit but but of course it says not to exceed that. But other than that, it again with my first year experience in it, it she said it was pretty much
132the standard agreement that we've had in years past. So no no surprises or nothing. >> I'll make a motion to approve it. >> Thanks, Scott. Second. >> Second, >> Marlene. All those in favor say I. >> Opposed? Motion carries. All right. 10 minutes. Still good? >> Yeah, I think so. >> All right. Uh, I move we go into executive session with Superintendent Chris Reinhardt to review staff positions pursuant to non-elected personnel exemptions in coma. The opening meeting will resume in the boardroom at 9. All right. Yeah, let's just do 900 p.m. That way we rest. >> Okay. Yep. >> Second. >> Thanks, Scott. All those in favor say I. First motion. I would look for a motion to approve the resignation of Dana Horton from high school assistant forensic sponsor. I'd like to thank her
133for her help with that. And then also the resignation of Victoria I'm >> Kellin uh as a nest daycare provider. >> I'll make that motion. >> AZ, >> I'll second. >> Marlene, all those in favor say I. >> Opposed? Motion carries. All right. And then we have recommendations for new hires. Uh Avery Vanskyver, uh Nest daycare provider, and Kelsey Johnson, uh Nest daycare provider. >> Some move. >> Scott second. Cassie. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Opposed? Motion carries. Any other items? >> Uh I just heard say that uh the flag uh dedication bill >> that went really well. I thought in my opinion thought that worked looked really good. >> So good job. >> Yeah. Thank you. Well, and then Mr. Han, he was a big piece of that. He really
134Dave and those guys did a great job. >> Yep. >> We kind of just shared that. >> Well, it went really well. It went good. >> So, thank you. Thank you. >> Um, one thing I I'd like to share is just what uh Mrs. Benedict's classified pay for snow days. I think she really made a good point >> at the last meeting. U I would like to maybe see that come to fruition at some point. And then also maybe just something because I I know subs are hard to get, right? Um it would be possible for them just an extra incentive if they also get like if they're local here a free activity pass so that way they can come and support our student body in that as well. It's a good it's a good
135idea. sub sub athletic passes. Sorry, I just >> Yeah, I'm saying it out loud, but I'm making my note, too. >> Yeah, I know the snow day thing is something we talked about a little bit, but >> it kind of was loud. What did you say to get paid for snow days? Is that what that was? >> Yeah. So, uh like the classified like some of the classified staff, they don't get paid when there's a snow day. uh when there's no school and uh where uh other staff are still getting paid. So anyway, it was something we did talk about, but I can't remember. >> Well, how it works right now is if you're a full-time employee like myself and some others, if we want to get paid, we have to take a leave day,
136>> right? >> And then if you're a PAR, >> right? If you work for the co-op, >> get paid at But if you work for the co-op, you get >> you did get paid, >> right? Because the >> But I also think then you're going to run into your people that have to come up here and move snow. They have to be here >> then. So they're not getting the benefit of being off work and getting paid, >> right? So do they get so do they get time and a half hazard pay or you know what I mean? Like that would be the topics. I I mean I think it would just probably >> like I said I think there's just it is a good topic but there's just go into >> I'm just saying
137all classified gets paid for it because it's not fair to some people that have to be here even like me I have to be here if it's a during payroll >> I may have to get a tractor here to get >> you know so it's not it's not >> you got a deadline like that >> for everybody you know >> right >> but so I think it'd be a good topic to have for just a board meeting. >> Sure. >> And then to discuss it and then possibly take action at the next meeting. But >> so and kind of look at just review that policy and how it's written and worded. But I know that's kind of where part of it comes from is if they're a parah that works for USD270, they don't get
138paid. But if they're a parah that works for the co-op, they do get paid. >> And so there's >> Yeah. >> And then and then I all also thought of the same thing that Don brought up. It's like that we have we also have crew that has to come in and remove snow before we come back to school >> to unload trucks too. Yes. >> Right. >> Yeah. Cuz that stuff doesn't stop. And so those people they have to go out of their way to come in to work. >> So >> be a good discussion. >> Do they get time and a half or >> because it's not I mean it's I don't want to have a discussion now. It's not right to have to take time off to get paid for the day. I
139mean you know what I mean to use your sick Yeah. use sick time or whatever. That doesn't make sense either. So, it'd be a good discussion. >> Yeah. So, I think we'll add that to the list of things for future agenda items. I got it on there. >> All right. >> Thanks for those. >> I look for a motion to adjourn. >> So, move. >> Second. >> I'll second. >> AZ. All those in favor? I >> opposed. We are adjourned. Thanks everybody. Thank you.
