All those opposed. Motion passes. In communications today, we have a presentation from
003Don English, who is our RSVP coordinator. Miss English. Thank you, dear Beat School District number one school board members. I'm Don English and I've been in my position as RSVP coordinator for the last three years. I continue to be honored to coordinate the volunteer efforts and recognition events for the RSVP members. We have 250 members. They are very inspirational and without their service, many of our community's nonprofits would face very difficult challenges in meeting the needs of our community. Especially the food bank and the archives who have the largest number of volunteers. The B food bank has over 100 volunteers that are RSVP members. So, our volunteers are currently providing their time, energy, and expertise at the following locations. You school district number one for tutoring and mentoring. AARP Tax Assistance Program, Action, Inc. Quick
004Mining City Christmas, the Belmont Senior Center, but Archives, the food bank, the Columbus Plaza, the Lady of the Rocky's gift shop, Bulldog Outfitters, Motherload Theater, Stillwater Hospice, The Springs at But St. James Healthcare front desk, the World Mining Museum, the Daughters of the American Revolution and American Legion and But School District number one special projects which includes the fine line dancers and they dance at nursing homes and other events. And then we have a couple of knitting groups and they donate um hats and gloves to Bulldog outfitters. They make prayer shaws for hospice agencies. They do great work. So the continuation of the grant was approved for another three-year cycle and that was approved last spring. We are currently in the second year of the grant. Americanore changed the inind match from 30% of the
005total grant amount to 10% and due to this reduction our program has made the match in the first year. The match for the grant year has been met due to the generosity of butes businesses and the recognition provided to our volunteers by their workstations. In the a in August of 2024, we had our annual RSVP back to school supply drive and barbecue and it was hosted by the springs of approximately a hundred of our members attended this recognition event. 13 bakers boxes full of school supplies were donated by volunteers and residents of the Springs to but area schools. The barbecue will again be hosted by the Springs and this year our event will take place in July because the last two years we almost got rained out. Perkins pies were again provided to members as
006a recognition over the holidays and the archives hosted a holiday get together and 30 people attended. members donated hats and gloves at the event and these went to Bulldog Outfitters. Starting off 2025, five elementary schools in but participated in the Martin Luther King Day read for peace event on January 20th. Students in 40 classrooms, kindergarten through 6th grade, had a volunteer read to them about the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. over 800 students were able to participate this year. RSVP volunteers and students from the Montana Tech track team were the readers. The 26th annual BU RSVP spring recognition dinner was held on Thursday, March 6 at Lydia's and 170 members and their guests attended. St. Patrick's Day was our theme this year and everybody had a great time. We had great door prizes
007for the event again donated by the generous businesses of but we had a great evening full of celebration. There are currently again 250 members of but RSVP and this number has held steady for the last three years. RSVP volunteers are given the opportunity to choose the activity they want and the amount of time that they would like to spend volunteering. for the volunteer hours of 2024 25 so far the volunteer effort was the equivalent of 13 full-time around the year employees 13 and a half actually um employees so the return on investment for our community is fabulous um we are in a little bit of um a questionable state with Americaore at this point in time um as far as we know we will continue our funding So our fingers are crossed that that will
008continue. Um there has been staff reductions with the federal employees who work for Americanore and um that is u prolonging some of the awards that are throughout the state. And I just want to quickly provide some Montana stats. Montana Americanore seniors volunteered enough um to value $8.8 8 million for um Montana in 2024. 1458 volunteers over the age of 55 partnered with 221 organizations in urban, rural, and frontier communities throughout Montana. For every $1 of federal funds invested in Americanore seniors programs, an estimated 4.57 is leveraged in our communities. Our volunteers um with other Americanore seniors programs besides RSVP are the foster grandparent program and the senior companion program and volunteers drive other seniors to doctor's appointments, help them get groceries, etc. So, a tremendous value for our state. 3,622 seniors were able to remain
009independent living in their own homes because of the senior companion programs. Food banks across the state rely on our volunteers to serve 46,000 individuals and 2,937 students were mentored by our volunteers. So, our programs are very worthwhile. Thank you. Thank you, ma'am. Appreciate it. Madam Chairman, did I say something? I think that she does an incredible job. I was I got to go to the spring dinner and to see that many people. Well, here's in in beauty is pretty amazing. I agree with you. No, she does a really nice job. Yes, she does. She does an amazing job though. I would just echo I'm excited that it's going to be showcased on KXL TV. Yes, it is. Fingers crossed. We don't get news here very often. So, it's good to see you here to showcase
010one of our program. At this time, we have public comment on items not on the agenda. Again, anyone wishing to speak on any matter not on the agenda may step forward now. Please identify yourself before you begin. I must caution anyone wishing to speak. You may not discuss personnel issues, student issues, or pending litigation during the comment session due to time constraints. Each speaker will be allowed three minutes. At this time, we have Mr. Josh Shad, who would like to speak to the audience. Yeah, madam chair, members of the board, thank you for your time. I was just here today to ask for your consideration and I was excited to take the east principal job coming up in the fall and asking for your guys' consideration allowing me to start July 1st instead of August
0111. I kind of started this process back about a month ago with Mrs. Joonarch. Um when I accepted the job and the board um car came out like hey it says August 1st on there. Is that something hard to change? Do we need to come to the board meeting that night? And it was like this journal said, "No, that's not a hard change to make." And that's me, you and Kevin, and Karen will sit down and figure this out. And then June came and she called and said, "Hey, there's no money in it. We can't do it till August." Said, "Can you reconsider?" She said she'd ask the board. Um, and then in my evaluation on Friday, I asked her again, and she said, "Well, it's easier on Kevin if you start August 1." Um,
012I'm just asking for the same consideration that every 12-month employee has gotten to start July 1st. I'm moving into a new building. I'm super excited about it's a big building with a lot more kids. I love that extra time to not only get to know Kelsey, um, who's going to be hired tonight and we'll start July 1st, but kind of build that relationship, but get to know the ins and outs of the building, what needs to be done over the summer, get to know the engineers and cleaners because once school starts, there's not really a lot of time to do that and get these projects, you know, completed. And once we get to August 1st, um it's going to be busy. I'm going to be, you know, we'll have our Bullock Summit that we'll be
013gone for for a few days and we have other meetings and I'm getting ready for open houses and things like that. I'd love to be kind of start this thing off on the right foot and be super prepared um for that opportunity that you guys have given me to lead East Middle School. So that's all I'm asking today is for that consideration of the possibility of starting July 1st instead of August 1st. So I appreciate you guys' time. Again, thank you, Mr. Chad. Appreciate it. Is there any other public comment not on the agenda? Moving on to our consent agenda. Approval of payroll claims, budget transfers, revenue reports, travel requests, view east middle school activity fund reports. Motion from trustees. Move to approve. Is there a second? Second. It has been moved and seconded. Do
014trustees have any questions regarding the consent agenda? Hearing none. All those in favor, please say I. I. All those opposed. Motion passes. Approval of the PAR for June 16th, 2025. Miss Alli. Madame Chair, members of the board, I'm bringing to you the personnel action report for June 16th, 2025. on it. We are asking for the um approval of the appointment of 13 um certified personnel, one retirement, one resignation, and to leave of absence under certified personnel. Under classified personnel, I'm asking for the approval of the appointment of one, the retirement of one, and the uh appointment under supplemental personnel of one person. I would appreciate your approval of that June 4. Motion from trustees. Is there a second has been moved and seconded? Do trustees have any questions to Miss Ally regarding the PAR chair?
015Yes, sir. Mr. Builty. So, um, Miss Ally, if if we were to entertain Mr. Shad's request, would that require an amendment amended par and it would would it be something that we could take action on tonight? um or apologize or would it require a special meeting or I think the bigger consideration was that there's overlap so you would actually be paying two principles for that period being that Mr. Miller's um start date at admin is not until September 1st. So I think that is what would need to be considered. Is it madam? Yes sir. Go ahead. So uh thank you. That was part of my timeline here. Mr. Miller's start date is the 1st of September. Yes. Mr. Shad's current recommended start date is August August 1st first. So there would still be overlap of
016a month if you started him August 1st. August 1st. So you would have two principles working at the end or East Middle under the Title East middle school princip. Yes, sir. So, so the the overlap issue is still is relevant regardless of whether we start July or AR August. We're still going to have two principles from August to September. If Mr. Miller starts in September, yeah, you'll have a he'll have one month overlap. If he starts in July, it'll be two months overlap. So, thank you. So, um followup. Go ahead. Keep going. Thank you. So, and so the the primary issue was that we would we would have two people in the same position, but that's still going to occur for a month. Correct. Correct. Okay. And as I understand it, Mr. SH's request is
017so that he can get moving to sort of start building his team as the principal work with that time for some transition. At least that's to my interpretation. Yeah, I'm not sure. That is your interpretation of what he said? Yes. Okay. Thank you. So it would take an amendment to the par where we approve Mr. Shaw's start date of August 1st and I think it would have to be noticed up. Yeah, that would that was my next question. Well, we we would have to notice it. I could I mean we couldn't make a motion today to to amend the park to include this. We would have to go through noticing it and do a special meeting or Yes. I mean, does anyone have some directions or on that? That would be the most likely thing.
018Special meeting and make sure that it's noticed within 48 hours that that is the discussion. Okay. So, making a motion today would be out of order. Yes. No, we have not approved part. We'd have a motion on the floor to approve the part as you have put out 48 hours ago. One more then madam chair. Okay, go ahead. Um, so then how how in procedurally because I I I don't know that we've at least I haven't experienced this. If we were to request an amendment amended par Would that have to come from a board member or how would that action be or is that even something that we're I mean it's within our scope to do? I think what you would need to do is we would have to um work with Miss Jonart and
019Mr. Patrick at a meeting um to clarify and gain the information that you're looking for. and the reasons why it was not why it's not being done right now. Okay. And then um once that once that decision is made between whoever and meets with those two people and Miss Alley at the same time, then we could bring up an amended part if necessary at a special meeting. Okay. Thank you for that clarification. Yeah. Okay. August 1st earlier. Yeah. Correct. So now I'm going to go to go back and do an amended July 1st. Correct. That's far been okay. It's August 1. Yes. So the answers you were seeking is the rationale from administration. Yeah. I I remember the call from from Judy. I just had new additional information from Mr. Sh. So I just wanted
020to make sure I was doing my diligence to All right. to to understand what process if any. Okay. And and again that I mean I appreciate that we would be paying an extra month but we're already paying for a month and so I just trying to understand that. Any other questions or concerns? All right. We do have a motion on the floor. Any other questions on the motion on the floor? Hearing none. All those in favor please say I. I. I. All those opposed. Motion passes. Moving into new business. Approval to accept the recommendation from the trustee panel regarding the fully dethy grievance. Um Judy was going to give me something to read that letter. Oh. Okay. Not that letter. Her letter. Her cover letter. You would go back. is on. Yes, you are. Oh,
021do you hear me there? Okay. To the board of trustees from the trustee complaint panel dated June 16th, 2025. Recommendation panel. The panel hereby recommends the board reject the Foley Deathy grievance and accept and adopt the decisions of John Mets and Judy Jonard. And at this time, I'd just like to take a break to make sure that Miss Jonart is online for our new business. Miss Jonard. Yes, I'm online. And that's exactly the letter you were supposed to read. Thank you, ma'am. All right. For the board knowing that, I would like to call for a motion to approve. Move to approve. Is there a second? Second. It has been moved and seconded. Do trustees have any questions regarding the move to approve? All right. At this time, we have three gentlemen who have asked to
022speak to the board on this. First one, please, George Mike Foley. And Mr. Foley, you are limited to three minutes. Please remember that. My name is George. George Michael Foley. I appreciate the time to talk to you. Uh our process so three minutes. Our process began this last process on October 11th asking to meet informally with principal Mets and AD Travis Johnson. We were at a meeting on November 27th. We were told we could discuss three topics only and had exactly 30 minutes. There would be no discussion, just our information. Solutions were not to be discussed. Solutions not to be discussed. Mr. Mass could not attend. So, vice principal Miss Florine took his place. At one point, she asked us what solutions we might want to discuss. We told her we were not allowed to
023discuss that topic. And so, we did not. We were never able to talk to discuss any solution with Mr. Mets. So we feel Mr. Mets simply misinterpreted the solution that he thought we made. I believe he he felt that we were asking for an exact replica of three legends stadium built at but high school. That is not what we were asking. We simply provided pictures of both Stodden Park and Three Legends. And if that's how we interpret it, I can see why he called our u our resolution as ridiculous because that that's not what we were asking. We're not asking for a replica or anything uh of the sort when asking for a $2.5 million stadium, but we were never actually able to give him uh our our solutions. And so his comment that our
024our solution was ridiculous. I I don't think I don't blame him, but I don't feel he really understand or understood the uh our complaint. And I want to bring up a little history, and I know some of you heard this before, but I I still think this is very important. That's two minutes. Okay. This community voted for a bond issue in 88 in which two softball fields were promised to to be built for the girls at But High School. Two softball fields. The community voted on it. I was there when it was uh presented at I was at the Longfellow School the night it was presented. It was passed on June 30th. Oh, and the ball fields were the land was flattened. The land was leveled below the below the school for the ball fields
025to be built. On June 30th, 1990, but high ad Bill Brown stated that the two fields were being built as but high just adopted. The school board had just passed that day uh the resolution to include a high school softball at But Recently, we discovered that in 1991 or 1992, a district employee witnessed the delivery of signed for, and helped unload the back stops at But High School. Uh we're not sure 1991 1992 I'll be up at the minute building tomorrow to find out exactly that is three minutes what date what dates that were that's a little bit of that history then voluntary resolution actu in 19 or 2013 the district made some promises Mr. Bully, your time is up. That's three. Yep. Oh my lord. My Thank you. Appreciate it. Mr. Sydney Defey. Um,
026thank you. I'll uh try to stay within the three minutes that uh we're we're always under a time frame, I guess, in in these things. Uh the only thing I want to uh say on on what Mike was was trying to relate is uh that wi when uh the way this motion is on the floor and I hope there's some discussion about it is if if it's the belief of Ridgeway and Title N is not being violated by the district. uh you know I understand the legal ramifications of that but the one area that's you are saying you're going to adopt and accept John Matz's decision which is an indication that I don't want it to screw up any possibilities in the future that you would possibly look at a field of view high school
027or you'd look at solutions to improve the situation for rural softball the ramifications of what uh Superintendent Jonart wrote in her response and that uh John wrote in his would be an indication that we are buying everything they say and adopting them as policy. That would would be very difficult than looking forward to maybe at some point looking at a solution that maybe the girls could get the fields that were promised 35 years ago and they didn't get that back slots were ordered. So, on that subject, I just hope the board doesn't squash any future uh ability to do that. The one reason that that's important is Mike and I have been meeting with district personnel and community members and softball supporters talking about fundraising, getting corporate sponsors and trying to do something for girls
028softball at that field at the high school. And I don't know how many board members are aware of that, but that's an ongoing process. Too simp. Hey, the the other thing that I guess I'll submit it, but I I'm just going to start this. I was provided a letter by one of the softball players that just graduated from BU High School. And as part of her college writing class, she wanted the board to know that she believes that she as a a female athlete of BU High has been discriminated against for her entire career in this school. And um I'm obviously not going to get through this. Uh uh but I'm I'm just going to start it off. Uh this is written by Ashlin Milani and she uh compressed this down for me to speak
029to you and give her words. Her statement to the board is softball has shaped me in who I am today. I grew up with softball in one hand and a pasty in the other. But has supported me through every stage of my life from little league softball to high school softball. Three minutes. and she she goes on to make these statements and I I guess her words are probably irrelevant to the board, but these are extremely important words that this board when you make decisions like you're going to make tonight, you impact these girls and and I hope you take that into consideration. and I'll I just will offer her a copy of of her uh of her statement and and her feelings about the softball fields and how the boys got treated versus her
030and and I would hope you would take that into consideration. Thank you, Mr. Bill Foley. Good evening, man. Bill Fley, thanks for letting me speak here for three minutes. Uh, this fight's been going on for Sydney Mike started this like 2005. I think it's caused a lot of bad feelings with people in the board that and not the board, but the school district. I've had a school administrator and a public uh administrator both tell me that they would have done a lot more for the girls, but they don't want these two jerks to win. Clean that up for you a little bit. These are not the losers in this. The losers are generations of girls, girl athletes from but high. They're the ones who are losing. And I think if I talk to the board
031members oneonone, every one of you would agree that this fields, not only are they unsafe, but they're not playable. They're not good fields. And anybody who would disagree with that either doesn't understand it or just refuses to get out of the mindset that we don't get to question the school board or the school district of the board. Uh, as far as the decision goes, I could find no records of minutes, public records at all of any discussion by the board leading up to decision. Any decision that's made in secrecy is Montana law violation. Uh, public has the right to know the deliberations and the comments made by our public elected officials when they're making a decision, especially one that impacts us. And uh and further a school board member telling me flat out to my
032face, we keep pushing this issue. They're just going to take the boys out of three legend stadium, which is also a violation of law. They were pretty smart when they made a title N law. And uh but even so, I think we are that even though that is a violation of Montana law or federal law, we're entitled to hear the decisions and the discussions made by our public elected officials when they're making those decisions that would violate law. So, I would just uh urge you to please do what's right by the girls and and boys, but this has gone on too long. These guys aren't going to be the winners or losers. This is for our girls. Thank you. And also Jamie Decker, I know, fill out a form, Jamie Decker. Uh my name's Jamie
033Decker. I'm a uh I live out Ramsey but I'm a but native. I'm a board certified family nurse practitioner here in but I personally play softball for Mike and Sid more than 20 years ago. That makes me 38 and I'm really old. They have been involved in girls sports here longer than I have been alive. I'm standing here with two successful clinics in the state of Montana in part because I played softball for Mike and Sid. I doubt that you won't meet two individuals more committed to girls sports here in the but community. Since I played for them, they have coached hundreds if not thousands of other girls. I urge you tonight to support their endeavor at the complex and or some facilities. Similarly, last April at my own business at Top Deck, many of
034you know about this. I went in front of the county commissioners regarding an ADA access ramp. Um, and that not 35 years, but 18 months. It took a long time. And I have a unique understanding in big decisions like this. Um, a lot of emotion gets involved. And I think tonight when you make the decision that you really need to remove the emotion and look at the facts. Um uh and I would also that was that was advice given to me by legal counsel was just not to get your emotions involved. The fields need improvement and generations of girls to come would benefit from this. I would also say that Mr. Billy and Mrs. I have specific examples for you. You guys have grandkids. Um this will do nothing but benefit the generations within the
035community. Um, I'd also like to note that even after 20 years, Mike Foley showed up for me at that meeting at Top Deck in front of the commissioners and he wouldn't want people to know this, but the next day he brought me a check to help financially fund that project. Nobody cares more about girls sports in the community than Mike said. Thank you. Thank you, ma'am. Has anyone else filled out a pink sheet regarding public comment? Hearing none, we do have a motion on the floor. Do trustees have any questions after hearing any uh public comments? Madam Chair? Yes, sir. I I don't know that I I think um more and I don't know if it's point of clarification or whatnot, but I um I feel slightly compelled that the the panel that was put
036together was tasked with reviewing this information and making a recommendation. That recommendation is since being brought to this board to make that decision. So this is that that this is that venue where that that information is being provided where there's opportunity for public hearing where there's opportunity for public comment. So I I just as a panelist on there I just been compelled to say that we we made a recommendation. We didn't make any decisions. I guess that's in the art of the of the language or whatnot. And then also respectfully to Miss Decker. Um I also have a nine-year-old daughter that I'm missing her game right now to to be a part of this meeting. So because that's that's my duty as a as a as a trustee. So aside from granddaughters, I have a
037daughter that's also participating in softball right now. Thank you, sir. Thank you. Any other comments or questions from trustees? Are you ready to vote on the motion? All those in favor, please say I. I. I. All those opposed. Motion passes. Next is the approval of the attached applications for non-resident student enrollments. Miss Jonard, Madam Chairman, members of the board, uh uh in front of you are the non-resident student enrollments as of yet as of this far for the 2526 school year. I appreciate your approval. Motion from trustees. Is there a second? It has been moved and seconded. Do trustees have any questions, Miss Jonart, regarding the approval of the attached applications for non-resident student enrollments? Hearing none, all those in favor, please say, "I." I. I. All those opposed. Motion passes. Approval of the authority
038for the director of business affairs to make the end of the year budget transfers. Mr. Patrick. Madam Chair, members of the board, um, all budgeted funds are to be closed out for fiscal year on June 30th. Approving this eliminates the need for me uh for a special board meeting at the end of June to approve the trans transfers. Uh transfers I make I will uh bring them to you guys in August and the majority of the time they're just the uh compensated absence transfer and um transfer into our interlocal agreement. So they're kind of routine transfers, nothing out of the ordinary. I bring this forward to you guys every year. Motion from trustees. Move to approve. Is there a second? Second. It has been moved and seconded. Do trustees have any further questions of Mr.
039Patrick? Hearing none. All those in favor, please say I. I. I. All those opposed. Motion passes. Approve of the 2526 board of trustees meeting calendar. Mr. Patrick.

Is there a second? It has been moved and seconded. Do trustees have any questions for Mr. Patrick? He did designate that there are two Tuesday night meetings because of the federal holidays in January and February. Just don't do Thursday. That's ghost and I like ghost. Okay. Motion on the floor. All those in favor, please say I. I. I. All those opposed. Motion passes. Approval of the contract with Dr. Susan Collaric, the aiologist. Miss Jonard. Madam

041upon how many students and how many hours of service they need. Um and this will be for the 2526 school year. Thank you, ma'am. Motion trustees. Is there a second? Do trustees have any further questions? Miss Jennard regarding the contract with Mobility Solutions, Shelley Donhower. Hearing none. All those in favor, please say I. I. All those opposed.
