001Good evening. Good evening everyone. It is 6 o'clock and I want to call our meeting to order. And let's begin by saying our pledge of allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America. and to the land for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. I welcome everyone who is in attendance uh via Zoom and we're going to uh start with uh under the provisions of the public meeting laws of the state of Missouri. The board must adopt a roll call vote an agenda that includes the time, date, place, and tenative agenda for a meeting. A copy of the notice and agenda for this meeting was posted on Monday, June 9th, 2025 at the administration center 8855 Dun Road, Hazlewood, Missouri online and also
002sent to local newspapers. May I have a motion to accept the agenda as presented? So move. Second. Off of the vote, please. Graves. Is Dr. Graves not on yet? Okay. Mansery. Yes. Uh, Mr. Bailey. Yes. Dr. Martin. Secretary votes yes. Mr. Tyson. Madame President. Yes. Can we go back to Dr. Graves? She's on. She's trying to Yes. Oh, here we go. Thank you, Dr. Graves. Okay. So, I have marked absent at least at the moment. I have um Dr. Martin and Mr. Tyson. I just want to make sure they're not here. Okay. Okay. Thank you so much. And let's go on to the consent agenda. May I have a motion to accept the uh consent agenda as presented? So move. Second. U Madame President, I would like to uh request that items C and D,
003which are the SRO contract renewals, be pulled out of consent. Okay. So noted any other item. If me call for the vote with the exception of agenda item C and D. Is it C and D? C and D. Okay. C and D. All right. Um, Manserie, yes. Bailey, yes. Martin. Graves. Yes. Secretary votes yes. Mr. Tyson. Madame President. Yes. Item five, pull from consent. Item C, which is the city of Florescent Police Department, SRO. Yes. So, um, the reason I wanted to have it pulled from consent was I just wanted to ask a question. As I was reading over both of the contracts, um there is a part in there that talks about one of the um I guess one of the the agreements within the within theou is that there is to be a
004reduction in crime on in onampus crime. And so I I wanted I've never seen any numbers or or any heard any information about whether or not um we are seeing that reduction. I am not suggesting that we don't need this partnership, but I but I am curious about whether or not anybody is keeping track of whether things are getting better because we have school resource officers in our schools. And I don't know if that looks like the data they're collecting or our discipline data. I'm not sure, but that's a question that I have. Director Porter. Yeah. Good evening, Dr. Pow. Uh Walker. I will We do have some numbers of uh I know I have them for this year from the 23 24 year. We don't have them yet, but we do have we do
005look at the number of arrest that were made on campus. And by arrest, what that means is that a student, it could have been a group fight. Those students were um charged but released to their parents and their parents needed to appear in family court. So I can ask them for those numbers. Okay. And then just I would just say for uh future at least for me um you know whenever we do these renewals it's always good to have some sort of an evaluation of how it's going um if that makes sense. It's just and I will say um sorry I didn't mean to cut you off. That's okay. Um, I will say that we do ask and I can provide those to you all as well, but the principles of every school that has
006an SRO, they do do evaluations of the SRO to make sure that a that they're good fit uh for the school and b that they see some substance or some necessity for those uh SRO in the school. Okay. All right. Thank you. Uh for me in the future, it just be great to have a summary of how how things are going. Thank you. Yes, ma'am. Okay. And you know what? I'm not really sure how I need to proceed with this, even though we pulled it from consent. Should it be a motion or is this just forformational purposes? Because we still have to vote on this. So, um I think we need to make has to be voted on. I would think that one of us could just make a motion. Yeah, we need to make
007a motion and we should have done that before having um a discussion but you know again. So Sheila, what what motion would you like to make? This is something that you pulled. I would like to mo make a motion that the city of Florisonent Police Department and St. Louisis County Police Department SRO uh contract renewals be approved with do you want to add about the evaluation part? Well, I I guess uh that's something to think about. I I really wanted just wanted to understand um for me personally at this moment I don't need that information to move forward but I wanted them to be aware that we would like to have that. I feel like as one board member, I would like to have that information before I approve this sort of thing because it
008involves money. So, I'd like to know how it's going. Thank you. So, u may I have a a motion? I mean, you made the motion. May I have a second? Second. Any more discussion? I'm in agreement with you, Dr. Pow Walker. I think that's a great idea. We should be doing that. Um, you want to call for the vote? Yes. Um, give me just a second. All right. Manserie, yes. Uh, Bailey, yes. Graves, yes. Martin secretary votes yes. Mr. Tyson, Madame President, yes. Did we vote on the entire consent yet or did I miss that? Yeah, I think we went Didn't we vote on the consent? Wait, did I miss it? Yes, because I know we pulled it, but then I don't recall us doing an actual consent vote. You did a vote. Um I
009think we did. I have a vote for it. Um we pulled C and D and then I took a vote um to So basically it was approved without C and D. Okay. I was just making sure. I'm sorry. Well, that's a good question, Dr. Graves, because it can sure get missed. Thank you. I appreciate that. Rather no now than later. Mr. Tyson. Okay, we're going on to number six, uh, personnel actions and let's see, may I have a motion to accept our personnel action report and and for extra pay? We're going to have some discussion around this. And I think um, Mr. Mitchell, were you going to do that that part? John Comish, you talking about for the extra duties piece? Yes. Yeah. John Com should also be on here. Would you see? Do you
010want me to jump on in doc? Yes, please. And if you do you want to do a double screen? Dr. Martin, I mean, I'm sorry. Dr. Thurman, don't we need a motion first and then go to discussion? We're not having discussion yet. He's he's going to give it and then we're going to do the motion. He's going to give the report first. Oh. Oh. Okay. Okay. Okay. Um, so what you'll see attached in the board docs is the rationale for department heads. And so, uh, we did clean up some of the columns. So, I think it should make more sense now when you guys have a chance to review it, but it's basically approving the department heads. Uh, I bring your special attention to the third to last column that shows the number of staff
011and department and then it shows you the salary by FTE for each department here at our three high schools. And I know we wanted to make sure we discussed this in public because it does involve uh adding salaries, adding increases to salaries for employees. Is everybody able to look to pull it up or do we need to do a um to pull it up pull it up on the screen? I don't think we can do that because do we have names? It's got names on this one. Yes, ma'am. Is open so we should not do that. But it is attached to your board documents under number six, I believe. I'm looking at it. I wasn't sure of everybody else's and and part of one of the reasons that this one was pulled from computers we
012wanted to make sure that again this is a a financial piece and also there I thank you for the correction uh Mr. Mitchu on the staff uh the number of staff in the department that column. Yes ma'am. Thank you. And if so, may I have a motion to accept to accept the personnel report for extra pay as presented? So move. I hear a second. Second. Okay. discussion. The other part of the discussion that I wanted for us to have is uh we talked about extra pay positions and so that's why I wanted to make sure we wanted to bring this uh so that we can have open discussion about extra pay positions and I think the only question thank you the only question I have um the I wish I had a before and after
013because this is going into the next year so do we know what the current rate is like is is there a huge change? Um, you know, is a percentage change, 3%, 2%. Uh, just curious. That's all. No, that's a good question. All extra pay positions, I believe it's policy 1109, are subject to a 2% raise every year. So, it is a 2% increase from last year's budget. Thank you. And John, would you talk a little bit about u some of the other um things that you put in place to Yes, ma'am. That's going to be for the other one, though. Dr. Yeah, this is I think we were It's separate now, isn't it? We're doing department. Yes, it's separate now. Yes, sir. It's separate. That'll be in the very next one, I believe. It's for
014both. Like for teams where you were talking about extra duty for teams, right? Yes, ma'am. for each team and that kind of thing. But this one is just department heads. So the teams is the next one. And even for department heads, we were talking about the numbers. So Oh yeah. Yeah. The numbers, right? So it was reduced based on the number of people they supervised. Correct. I'm sorry. Yes, ma'am. You are correct. And that's in that column we talked about. I think this third, the last one with the number of people within the department. Yes. So you'll see the rates vary based on how many people they have to supervise. and also talk about the pay based on the number of people they supervise. So there's three levels of pay. Uh I believe it's uh
0152 to 5, 6 to 11, 12 to 15, I believe 16 to 19 are the the pay levels for department chairs, but most of our department chairs fall in that 6 to9 range across the district. Um that matrix was built a long time ago when we were had some of our uh departments had 19 plus people. We don't have that rate anymore. Two to five, six to nine and 10 to 14 are the tiers. Yes. I'm sorry. You're fine. But then we reviewed that to ensure that those are the right numbers to make sure that they are getting the right pay based on the number of people in our department. So just for boards just for information um these the pay is based on the number of people that the um people are supervising the
016department chair supervising. Any questions about that at all? Again, just hoping to be um as transparent as we can be about how the money is being spent and rationale behind it. Okay. Now, can we go to extra pay? Do we have to vote on this before we go to the next one? You know, it's on this. Oh, you know what? See, it's on. It's It's okay. Let's just go ahead and vote on on the first one for um um for our It's only one recommendation line item for this. Yeah. And it's only one with both of them on it. The one. Yeah. So, so what she did was we pull personnel actions and normally personnel actions always have two attachments. Oh, and so one is always for the extra pay which has the individual names
017in there and then the other one um is the personnel actions for your terminations hired. So it's always two attachments every board meeting and personnel actions. Okay. They're two different things. They actually are two different things. Okay. So, the way it's written on the personnel actions is is not I mean it's we just need to vote on that one and then we go to the next one which was the extra pay matrix. Right. Correct. They're two different things. Okay. But on this as we're looking we're seeing personnel action and extra pay. Again, those are two different things. Okay. It's confusing. So, let's uh let's call for the vote after since we've had discussion. Okay. And to clarify, um the recommendation is to approve the personnel report for June 11th, 2025 as presented. Yes, Bailey. Oh,
018wait. I'm sorry. Who were our motions in our second for Tyson and Manserie? Okay. Bailey, yes. Graves, yes. Martin, secretary votes, yes. Um, Mr. Tyson, yes. Miss Manserie, yes. Madame President, yes. Okay. Number seven, extra pay. Good evening, board. Uh I'm going to go over the proposed changes with you that apply for the extra pay positions for next year. Um in your board docs um you'll see the the link to the extra duty matrix. The matrix itself has very few changes. A 2% increase for uh policy 1109. Uh and then there's some clarifications to the theater positions so that HR can more effectively monitor those positions. Uh the main changes to this will be in the process on how we allocate extra pay positions. Um, so that'll be the bulk of my conversation about this.
019Um, the extra bay budget is mostly coaches, sponsors, and directors at the high school level. It's probably 75% of the overall extra pay budget. Um, and each AD has used similar staffing matrix to determine how many positions were in each program. There was no one universal standard applied all across all three schools. Um, the past system gave the ads the ability to staff programs as needed, but our budgeting for extra pay was built on maximum possible numbers in each program. In the past, ads would determine what positions needed to be filled based on the current year's participation numbers. This budgeting method ensured that we could always add positions, but the budget we spent was not always predictable. Moving forward, we would like to use attendance information from the current season to determine the numbers of
020allocated ex extra pay positions budgeted for the following year for all programs. So there is a very finite or hard budget. Uh each school after school program we've identified participation numbers to maintain a program and the minimum numbers of participants to add assistant position. Minimum numbers have been shared with ads and they have met with their staff in regards to next year's positions. ADS will monitor attendance numbers throughout the year and if programs do drop below minimum participation numbers throughout the season, ads will reduce FTE based on the percentage of the season that is completed. If program numbers drop below program minimums, for example, most programs fall somewhere between six and 13 students, the head coaching stipen can be converted to a club stipen to work with current students to build programs for the following
021year. This process will allow sponsors, coaches, and directors the ability to build programs with low participation numbers and still be financially responsible. The system of active monitoring of attendance also ensures that programs are maintaining minimum numbers throughout the season in order to be more financially sustainable. Athletics and activities are vital pieces of many of our students educational experience. While these changes will be difficult to make, the alternative would be to outright cut programs in an effort to be more financially sustainable. This model allows us to ensure we are allocating our dollars where we have student interest and encourage programs to increase student participation. If you have any questions, please let me know. What is your recommendation? My recommendation would be move to approve. May I have a motion, please? Second. discussion. I do want to
022thank uh John uh we had a lengthy discussion about this and the part reason and I I will take responsibility for asking to um move this so that we can have some discussion around it. uh the matrix has changed a little bit based on um uh one of the things he talked about is making sure that it's it's about accountability and and making sure that that we also the evaluation piece that wasn't probably being used as much it it probably should have been used in the past and so I appreciate the fact that we're now going to have the accountability piece where there's numbers for example that wasn't probably wasn't followed as much as It should have been that there should be only a certain there should be a certain number of people involved in
023the extra uh activity in order for it to be um a legitimate reason to be paying uh a person to be ahead of that that um that that program or that that um activity and then when it falls off that we stop it if we need to. uh and then the evaluation piece. So that that was the reason for pulling it. If there's any other questions or um um any other discussion about the new matrix? If not, let's call for the vote. Martin Manserie, yes. Graves, yes. Bailey, yes. Secretary votes yes. Mr. Tyson, yes. Madame President, yes. Thank you guys for that. Um, number eight, uh, MSBA annual membership renewal. This should be not just MSBA, uh, it's membership renewal for for memberships for the board. remember um Miss McQuwell wanted to have some discussion
024about do we want to renew for MSBA and also for um um the National School Board Association National School Board Association fees are under 10,000. So that's something you all probably need to discuss um if you want to pay that or not. So, I didn't have to come before the board, but MSBA um but specifically asked that we have that discussion about all of the memberships. Well, it's just those two, right? Exactly. I don't see it. I only see MSBA. Yeah. The NSBA doesn't have to go, but you all can decide whether or not um you all want to pay it or not as well, which is a part of cube. And then the MSBA, your policies are connected with those as well. So Jackie, [Music] uh board, we need to have discussion about whether
025we want to renew both of these both of these memberships. Um of course, we know that MSBA we are tied to them because of policy. Um the National School Board Association is another membership that um I thought that we should um discuss whether we want to continue with that membership. So, may I have a motion to continue with the membership for and see the reason I I wanted to have it on here is because we need to have a motion for both of them. So, moved. What's your moved? the one that I see that I mean I don't see the other one so I can't to your point. Yeah. So the one MSBA is here so I'mma move on that one. Can always amend the motion as well. Okay, let's do that. Uh I would
026like to amend the motion to approve membership for both MSBA and National School Board Association. to 2526. Second discussion. Is there a reason? Is there a need for us to have to separate these or is the board okay with approving both at the same time? I'm okay with approving both. Any other discussion, questions? Or if not, call for the vote. Mansery, yes. Martin Graves, yes. Mr. Tyson, yes. Secretary votes, yes. Mr. Bailey, yes. Madame President, yes. Uh You know what? And I I I have I've made a mistake. I need to go back because one of the things that we needed to do to talk about this is travel. So, what I would like to do is since we don't have any travel between now and our next board meeting to add that to our
027agenda to talk about travel for the being a part of these um these memberships for this year is the board. Okay with that? Yes. Jackie, can you please make that make sure that that's on the our agenda for next our next agenda, please? For both. We'll do. Thank you. Appreciate it. Okay. Policy update. And so in the absence of Charlie, I'm trying to navigate my screen. Give me one second. Do And so this is the final reading for policy J. And so what we are recommending is that we approve the addition of school uniform language to policy J. Uh that keep in mind this will take effect July 1st, 2025. proposed language reflects the board's approved decision to implement school uniforms across the district and so that has been added for your review. Uh that
028language is part of your board docs and as well as that section for policy J. May I have a a motion to accept the recommendation? So move second discussion. Right now, according to this policy, the the policy that we voted on as a board still stands in terms of uniform so that our community understands what this this topic was about or what this um policy update is about. Dr. Thurman, can we can we acknowledge that this will be implemented throughout the entire district and not just selective schools at all? Yes. And that's part of what why we wanted to do this. It should read K12. Um that this policy has been in place and that it's it's for K12. Yes, ma'am. It does read K12 and that attachment has been putting in more dots. And
029um um Miss uh we we need to make sure that we put something out in the community uh as soon as possible as a reminder about the uniforms uh for so that our our parents will know what the expectation is. Dr. P. Walker, were you Yes, ma'am. We'll ensure that that goes out. We're also really um happy to know that during our back to school bash, we've got some um different organizations that are willing to provide uniforms for families, but they do have to register before July 18th. So, by all means, you'll be receiving another actually another um document went out earlier today through the district asking parents to sign up to participate in the back to school bash on July 27th, July 26th, I'm sorry. And there's also a link related to uniforms. We're
030still waiting for the assistance league to guarantee more uniforms for us and we make sure that that's going out regularly so that parents we we don't want to have surprises for any of the parents and um that um everybody knows about those opportunities for them to uh get uniforms. Absolutely. And thank you for that. Thank you for sharing that. And Dr. Peter Walker, real quick, and this is just is there any type of communication we're sending out um outside of email or outside of um because I'm I'm just thinking out loud. I mean, for example, my parents, I mean, if you shot them an email, you might as well have not even said nothing to them because they wouldn't have read it or they wouldn't have My dad didn't even have emails. So, I mean
031there are there are definitely I think people in our district that don't communicate via electronically. Um, so I don't know maybe text because I'm sure everybody has cell phones. Um or at least I mean are we doing multiple ways of communicating and not just thinking absolutely we have an awesome communications team and she does a fantabulous job of ensuring that families are connected with um but thank you for that. you know, when we do our summer camp fair, we also use several different modes um of reaching out. And so we'll do the same for this. And she's already got this on a loop where it's gone out several times, both the flyer as well as just an email. It's going through Peach Jar. It went through this. So, absolutely. Yes. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah.
032And even if we could get it through the Urban League, we can maybe post something at the Urban League or um Salvation Army or, you know, places like that. Even grocery stores. I mean that's I know it's oldfashioned you all but um newspaper whatever. Yeah. So would that would that be blackboard the um text communication I yes that's okay because yeah so I see him on peace tree and the emails but like Mr. Tyson was saying you know to have that text message come to the phone you know or that voice message you know Yeah. No, we definitely blitz and we try and we what you want to do is you want to make sure that you're getting that right spot right so that you're informing but not inundating um to where people will tune
033you out. So yeah, we definitely know people respond better um sometimes to text or sometimes to phone. So we'll make sure that we add that and include that in our um consistency of messaging. And may I echo Dr. Pew Walker I mean Dr. you um Walker that we do have an awesome communications department led by an just thought I'll echo that. Yes. And even even though even some of our churches in the community it would be so great because some of some of them have been instrumental in providing uniforms for their you know uh families who belong to their churches. So, you know, that might be another resource, another uh place that we can reach out, but yeah, we can definitely add that. Yes. Okay. So, uh let's call for the vote in terms of
034updating the policy. Okay. Dr. Pow, you do have the uh motion people who made the motion. Yes, I have Graves and Mansery. All right, and we're calling for the vote. Bailey, yes. Graves, yes. Martinie, yes. Um, secretary votes yes. Mr. Tyson, yes. Madame President, yes. Thank you. Okay, on to new business. Uh, is there any new business? Well, for me, there isn't necessarily any new business, but and this is um totally my fault because when I saw this letter in here uh from the opportunity trust giving us a grant, I think I assumed that we were going to hear about that in the meeting and didn't catch that it was actually included in um consent. It's in consent. So, I've I've mentioned the opportunity trust before and just some concern about partnership with them and
035what the long what that looks like long term. I know that financially we are not in a good place and so money looks good but all money is not good money and so the only thing I would say about that is I think we need to monitor that partnership and make sure we're clear about what the agenda is. I am curious to know whether or not this grants them access to um student data. Um you know, what do they have access to? What does their oversight of the grant look like? Because as I was reading through it, uh it looks like they can come in and check to see how, you know, how the program is being implemented. And for those that don't remember, um, my concern about them previously is that they have partnered
036with school districts in the past and done great work, but sometimes they will plant a a charter school in that community. And we are uh in a financially vulnerable position. And I just for me personally, I don't know if this if I had caught that if this would have been the best time to consider partnership with them. That doesn't mean they're not good folks. That doesn't mean they're not doing great work. I just would have wanted us to have the opportunity to talk about what this partnership meant and what potential risk it brings to the district. So, okay. Don't know if that's new business, but I just wanted to put out there that for me, for future, I prefer a new partnership be talked about out in the open and not slid into consent. No
037disrespect, but Dr. Paul, I can just jump in. We actually already have a partnership with Opportunity Trust um through our Emerson reading uh program that started last uh this last past school year. So, we actually already um started that partnership. just kind of wanted to let you know that um and I think it would be great to hear a followup though on how that's going um kind of a little bit about just kind of piggybacking on what you uh were just saying but we actually already um have received funds from them and I did ask question Dave Murray um is Murray on um because I was going to pull it from consent Dr. because I did concern about uh the opportunity trust as well. And when I spoke with uh uh Oh, he's on. Okay.
038And he he assured me that we have nothing no other ties to them. Um the money has been granted and now we just have to do the programming. So I'll let Day talk Dr. Murray talk about that. Thanks for the question. Yeah, this is this is the same um award that we won almost a little over a year ago. And so um essentially we've been in a planning year, the team at um Commons Lane and some of us at Central Office. And basically next year is the year that they're slated to give us the money to um basically put in place some additional literacy um initiatives to try to um raise literacy scores and kind of serve as a a model across really all of St. Louis County and so um Emerson is the funer
039and um essentially they're passing the money through um opportunity trust but yeah our commitment is really just to do our best to raise literacy scores and then you know they're kind of working with and supporting us to to help us do that. Yeah, I I appreciate that um Mr. Murray and I do understand that we already have some sort some level of partnership with them. I guess I'm just asking that we monitor whatever we do with them with some degree of scrutiny. Um, every time we partner with them and they and I don't know, Mr. Murray, do does this partnership include them being able to look at student data? Are they able to look at the data of our kids and get a sense of where our areas are? And I and I know people
040might feel like I'm, you know, going too far, but if I'm interested in something, I'm going to study it. And I think these this these this this money we're taking from them and this ongoing partnership is an opportunity for them to continue to study and learn more about our community, our families, our students, which positions them. And I will be I will tell you this also. I won't say it on a in an open meeting. just know that I know that if an opportunity arose for charter school in our district, it's my understanding that it is not something that would be totally off the table. So, that's why I'm I'm concerned. Understood. Understood. And um as far as data sharing, it would kind of be super high level like what what percent of our kids
041are are wear on the STAR test. And I want to say basically that exact information will already be posted on our website through success writing network. So it won't be kind of super granular or anything beyond what the public is really already has access to. Okay. So you're saying that they will not have access to anything that wouldn't be posted publicly. Correct. Okay. And can you share with them a little bit about how that 120 the 125,000 will be used? Yes. Um so we convened a team that um collaboratively plans um how to spend this money. The majority of it is uh going towards high dosage tutoring. So um towards some external partners that based on our student data and through students that teachers have identified will be supporting these students to um give them
042extra one-on-one and small groupoup literacy support um live with trained tutors. Um, another part of it is going to be a parent app where parents are going to um, get daily text messages that are going to give them kind of little mini lessons that align to what they're learning in their UFly phonics. And the goal is really to bring some of this work we're doing with the science of reading into the home um, and help parents support their their students. And um, yeah, so those are the the primary places that the the funding is going. And I think I think that's really helpful because my daughter's teacher I um were sending some emails home and there were books and that we would um well text messages and then we would click on them and read
043read with them and work on them daily. So that'll be very helpful for our children. Exactly. Awesome. We we had a a small pilot um in second grade there this year just to make sure that teachers and parents liked it and that it was successful. So I'm glad glad to hear that it was a good experience. Yes. Yeah. My request would just be Mr. Murray that you monitor the partnership. I do believe there is a degree of risk involved for the district. So I just want to state that publicly. Understood. Okay. Are there any other questions? Uh, and this way this this program will no way um um interfere with the tutoring that we already have in place for the district. Uh, Dr. Murray, I'm not sure that we most of that has lapsed at
044this point um from from ESSER funds. Um, so I I'm not I don't believe that we have any other uh live tutoring that's going on at this point for the for the upcoming school year. Okay. Okay. So, we will hopefully we we will be monitoring this um this grant and yes, I thank you Dr. um P. Walker for Power Walker for bringing this up as as an a not a concern so much but as aformational piece. Um, is there anything else for new business? I do have one thing.
