014has been in the works for several years um it really got off the ground last year with Mr re and how starting to reach out and look for Grants then of course with the transition from our our fourth grade up to this building and adding three grade levels um so as we started look for Grants Mr re started look for Grants we reached out to the Jefferson um Foundation Grant um we were first denied the the first application but we recently back in December um were granted $220,000 to go towards this project as well as some of the intermediate fundraising that miss marchet her building has been utilizing um so that would be another 20,000 to go towards this grant or towards this project and then the rest would be on District Capital over two
015fiscal years we would start phase one um on this fiscal year and finish it out and then the phase two which are fiscal year are we're in July but um we've been kind of waiting on the grant cycle and that was uh like I said were notified in December and so this Project's kind of been the works for a long time we went out to bid um I've worked with Miss marchetti really closely and I know she had some several kid committees and our student committees and teacher committees and then I'm going to let her share kind of her side but that's kind of in the process we went through and then regard this evening and then I think she has some stuff she'd like to share perfect um as uh Dr L said we
016met with teachers and kind of looked through some different books kind of got some ideas of things that we thought students would be interested in I met with Dr laru kind of met with some people and we had some preliminary drawings um and then we brought in our teachers to kind of help select some things we thought the kids would um enjoy and then when we had our two top we brought in our student council and car to council students from four through six um to kind of look through and help us pick out the things that they liked and that along with that um our fifth grade part of our Ela curriculum is to do a persuasive writing P so we asked our fifth grade students um if they would do a persu of
017writing piece on why we intermediately did a playground so we have some Brave students here that said that they would be willing one of our students unfortunately um was sick um toight and couldn't come so I told him I would get his writing and we would share it so that we can recognize Jackson um but each each pod of teachers picked kind of their top from each of their classes and then provided it uh to Mr and I without names we kind of read through and thought uh we felt like they displayed the writing process and kind of you know adequately talked about some things that they thought would be good to have in our playground so I asked them if they would be brave enough to come up and share so if you guys
018want to come on up Brook and M keny and W and gra so I just asked them if they would just introduce themselves tell who they did the writing and then they're going to read it for you they practiced with me and they did an amazing job so how about that okay so Al read Jackson Forman he uh is in Miss Oilers class I'm Miss offer's home room but did this in his boiler's class he said here at Hillsboro intermediate we have almost no equipment to play with at recess I believe it's time to make a change and improve our playground I think we should add improved volleyball net or a pickle pickle ball court and a track to go around the playground that all students can play on first I think we should add
019an improve volleyball net because volleyball is a very social sport that can also help team bonding for example if one of your teammates misses a hit or pass you can talk them up and cheer them up next I believe that we should add a pickle ball court playing pickle ball can calm some people down say you got a bad grade on your test and really stressed out you could go hit a ball back and forth with your friend to calm yourself down finally I think we should add a track around the playground because when you are running on a track you're being act very active and improving your cardio stamina if you run every day during recess you'll be able to run a longer distance without losing your breath as you can see we deserve
020a playground to play on and get our energy out so I believe it would be worth it to invest in an upgrade where kids can grow their social skills build motor skills and help calm themselves down students at hillsb intermediate beg you to improve our playground for a better life pretty students at the Hillsboro Intermediate School get 25 minutes of recess time run I feel like students need a gag gag is a good way to learn conent with the things around you gag is also a good way to improve ability and friendship first gag can help youn concent to focus not to get out you try to predict where the will go so you can Avid that are second can help improve agility can help improve agility by running in One Direction and going into
021another fast lastly can help builds can help you builds by talking and communicating with other kids people intr them to the game and ni to them will in conclusion a gag on the would be good foro we would be able to be better at concentrating and focusing with a lot of around us we could also improve our and ability to move the best thing we get from memories and my name is BR and my teer is gold equipment students be creative equipment lets kids create new games and ideas and keeps them from being born the intermediate should have playground equipment equipment that would help students creativity or swings G and rock first I think we should have some swings for our playr equipment a swing set can be used for swinging playing and having fun
022with friends second I think we should get a doit for our playground equipment G can help children learn strategic and finally I think we should get a play equipment the rock wall can help children have a fun imagination for example they can they can to be climbing a tall mountain to summon up the intermediate should have new playground equipment it will allow students to be creative use their imagination and stop them for being Bor during recess hi my name is m and I'm from this class many students at other schools have playgrounds with the Clin but hillsb intermediate just has a BL toop with nothing for students to do during the school's playground is in need of a track go ball pit and volleyball for students to enjoy during recess students would gain benefits such
023as exercise skills and relationship skills first having a designated walkway around the playround will help students get exercise for example students who walk on the playground every day will get exercise because they're moving Conant second having a go ball pit will help students have better focusing SKS students who play Bag ball will have to focus and aim at other students feet to get them out finally having a couple volleyballs volleyball nets will help students form friendships with each other in fact students who play volleyball will learn how to communicate and find others that like the same game as them which will form connections by working together as a team in conclusion CL intermediate school's playground needs new equipment for students the benefits for students of having these would be Bur learning accuracy and gaining friends
024no one should have to go out onto a playground with no equipment we need to get some playr [Applause] equipment this is this is um the renderings that are being voted on this evening and Aaron if you'll scroll scroll scroll up so what is g i I honestly don't know it's the the Octagon pit over there I know I I hear my children and talk about it the top right the flash yeah Aon if you can scroll yeah that's the guy so what is I've never heard of it um yeah there you go okay I it's kind of I don't know they they they play It's like a ball and you run you're like an area about 20 kids can be in it and they're trying to throw the ball and get each other out
025kind like a square kind of thing but in a I don't know I've not played it but the kids have gone on and on about and have you guys played it have you play Camp that's what some kids at Camp you guys at church camp they played it a lot of kids have told us they play it like and stuffed it I know I'm old but yeah so they they kind of looked through and were picking the things they um liked in this these guys did that along with some of our other students what I think they did a good job on being yes thank you for your bra sharing your [Applause] essay question well done okay all right hearing no further questions all those in favor of approval of flavor oppos motion carries all
026second move on out before we start talking for the finance it's a great all right we will move then to the budget amendment revisions for fy2 have a motion to authorize the budget amendment and revisions to the 25 budget as presented motion now on to the presentation entertainment give him a time Li yeah give a Time [Laughter] Li remember talking Layman's ter all right um so this is uh this year's budget amendment for February uh typically we would do this in December but we wanted uh to provide a really good in depth uh one and Dr B has been assisting us a little bit um so I'll just direct uh your attention to we'll start with page two um what's page one in the book the revised budget is adjusted using actual year-to-date revenues and
027expenditures as well as our best estimates based on projections from desie our local tax collections at at this point so some overall Revenue changes um by fund is our general fund will be up about 1.7 million couple things have occurred and I put the notes down below that the preliminary budget included 100 100% of the prop C uh funds the sales tax and put those into fund 20 uh the Teachers Fund has now been updated to allocate 75% in fund 20 uh and 25% in fund 10 at the end of the fiscal year uh we zero out uh fund 20 in the general um and then as far as starting the new uh budget year the preliminary budget uh projected the assessed valuation to be approximately 380 million uh the actual assess valuation valuations uh
028372 million almost 373 so that has an impact uh that kind of brought uh some things down there and then the preliminary budget estimated that fund 30 which is our debt service Levy to be lower than the actual rate that we ended up setting it September uh looking at uh some of our numbers we made decision prior to the tax rate um on where to set that trying to use um the current interest rates that we're getting in the market by capturing that money now versus lowering the rate taxes were a little bit higher this year um than they maybe could have been so that they could be lower faster and longer because we're using the interest money off the market uh because of the economy and interest rates that are benefiting schools uh and
029anyone that's got money and CDs and such as far as expenditures the following changes if you could scroll that up uh need to note is the general fund um not a whole lot of changes um 652 th000 for perspective that's a lot of money in our uh personal lives a school budget uh typically R is for 40 to 55 million so on what we're running in and out so perspective there when you're looking on the amount uh the preliminary budget uh projected that fund 20 expenditures would exceed the actual amount by 1.6 million we've went in and looked at every person in the district there is some variation um that we don't know about as far as some of our teachers whether they did career ladder uh some of our leave day items overtime we
030classified but that's fairly uh feel good about that number is being a lot tighter obviously than that amount um our Capital um fund you'll see there there's a difference of two uh over 2.2 million the largest portion of that the preliminary budget did not account for the 1. uh in interest cost that we made in paying off the highway uh a property this is not something that we purchased recently this was in 2004 when we bought the property out there um all that money was put into uh when I believe it was the bond issue 2016 17 some of that those funds were put into an escro account making interest so that money came out and then uh we made that transaction so that's just uh comes off the books on there as showing uh
031an expenditure so have to include that if you'll go to the next page this is a recapitulation uh document that shows our actual starting balances uh last July uh we started the year with 16.5 million dollar in our general the teacher fund had not been zeroed out um that will be this year that typically is zeroed out there our debt service was at 12.7 uh million in balances that becomes important if you remember in our budget this year um we're running a deficit spending because we're paying off in that Debt Service uh which you'll see on that line with $10 million in uh The Debt Service going down through here I guess I start with 12 million the amount that we budgeted for to continue to pay off our debt uh down significantly we we'll
032end up with $4 million in our debt service Mund um one of the things too to point out is our fund 60 activity Revenue that's actually our school sponsored activities there sports teams that's we call it student money fundrais money and such which uh they're doing pretty good off the interest rates too that's all kind of helped with really uh growing the district's uh Reserve balances uh Capital funds we started the year with 4.7 million uh we have 30 cents in there which generates um uh well it looks like it right at 1.8 uh for this year which will then take our total balances we are going to have a transfer from the classroom trust fund of $850,000 and 1.8 which is an end of the year transfer one of the reasons that we're doing
033that is taking money from the general fund to be able to ensure that we have money to pay for things in the future um and different projects that Dr lar is working on things that like buses in the future the football field uh those type of items is you can pay for that out of here is just as we're making some Financial plans uh as far as our staffing and making sure that we're paying all of our teachers and planning it out we're just setting it aside there so we know we're at there so when all those different items occur um we project the end the year at 43.4% that was right close to the budgeted amount that was in our budget book this year so using that we move this over because otherwise our
034balances would be higher so we're planning for that is we're going to U have that money set aside there and then ear marked um wanted to point out our Capital leases we have about 2.5 $5 million in our Capital leases uh the hall house which is our central office BRD Ridge the farm which is 319,000 cop years for 76,000 and our energy lease which was all the lighting and stuff that we did uh several years ago uh actually last two years imagine so uh if you recall that energy lease the money that we're saving on energy is being used to make the payments so that's not something you necessarily would want to pay off um immediately because we're using the savings to pay for it the hall house and some of those I may mention
035within this document uh on the next page that you can say well hey you guys have you go back there Mr more try here is basically on that we have the money in capital we could just pay that off but we're in a unique situation right now uh from a money management standpoint that our CDs are making more than 4% and when we bought that property the interest rates on them are 2 and a half 2.9 1.9 so by holding the money we're actually making 1% on our money and when you talk about $2 million that's significant uh to then uh use on other things so even if you make $155,000 well that pays for the fence between the shed and the building at the playground you know that looking at it in that way
036so one of the things too that in planning for the end of the year um looking at where we were at financially is we outlined some things that we hadn't necessarily planned to do in this fiscal year but looking at where we are financially um to get these things done that uh they've been needing to get done or get out ahead of them that maybe we plan to do them in next fiscal year but by doing it now we're using it in this year so it's paid for so we know that we have 43% as we go to St to use for planning staff salaries in the next 3 or four years to have a really solid plan so Dr Ru uh and the principles uh and others kind of put together this list one
037of the things um that we're going to get I know we've talked about the stock trailer for The Farm is a brand new band trailer covered Fifth Wheel Band Trailer that's on uh Mr deer's band list fiveyear plan is knocking that out um along with some doors and mower shed so you can kind of go through the list there wanted to provide a lot of details of what we were going to be doing uh with those funds so the final Pages here and I'm not going to go through each one of these line items unless the board up um but is literally line ited by the different uh codes and items of which you can see on like the revenue current taxes are down 159,000 uh but the delinquent taxes are up 126,000 so really
038breaking it down uh I think that the board will appreciate this document in the future and uh the public as well and it also allows us to really get into year-over-year and planning out for a future so this is the budget amendment um of where we're looking so looking very well um as a school district very excited we are slowly treading down a little bit both intentionally uh with our reserves because we don't want to necessarily be a bank but we want to be strategic um to try to extend that out uh but also being aware of what's going on uh at the State national level as far as funding uh there are some things out there that concern us that will impacta schools so just making sure that we're able to take care of
039our people in the long term and address uh these different things and get that playground uh for the Intermediate kids all right question thank you all right last chance for any budget related questions hearing n all those in favor of the approval of the budget amendment presented opposed MO thank you very much all right on to the approval of the election cost payment for the April School Board election do I have a motion to approve the payment of $1,773 55 to the election Authority fund by the due date of March 18th 202 any questions on this P hearing none all those in favor of approval opposed motion carries right under the approval of the maintenance service agreement with the school boards Association do I have a motion to approve the msba full policy maintenance service
