001paul please thank you mark nancy kupka present mike davenport here dan nicholas here terry pavich here rick pavener here zoe boyd and sam bull thank you we have a quantum stand for the pledge i pledge allegiance 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 good evening and mark thank you we're going to start with the student perspectives south high good evening well we're excited to have three students here to we put february to bed yesterday but we had a lot going on with our students in february celebrating black history month we had our drama production celebrating black history month we have students to talk about that and our emoji club sponsored several activities throughout the
002month that they're here to share some of their experiences before i let the kids introduce themselves i want to be remiss if i didn't talk about their sponsors because the amount of time the teachers put in with the kids and as you've learned everything is much harder and takes longer in this environment so excuse me nathaniel haywood tiffany rubin kenny white alice frelon and sheldon davis are the sponsors of the dgs drama and the emoji club and they put in countless hours so i will turn it over to the students now and let them tell you more hello i'm yasmin khan and i am part of the black history play and this was my first year in the black history place so i think that my perspective is a little bit different than omari's and
003i'm also a senior so thank you for having me and i think the first thing i'll talk about is the most obvious part of the play which was that it was all virtual that was probably the best decision i think mr haywood and mrs rubin could have made because at the at its core black history month is about celebrating it but also about educating other people on black history and also educating ourselves so a big part of it choosing to go all virtual for the play was that we could ensure that we were able to present it to everyone and not be worried about going back hybrid or going virtual and just know that we could present to everybody and i think ultimately there were some obstacles of course but it was a really great
004opportunity because i personally was able to send the link to other family members and have more people consider the issues that we talk about versus if it were in person which would have is also different but it was a good opportunity for that and in that vein we also decided to go do four short plays by just goodwin instead of opting to do a whole full-length play which is what the black history play has been in previous years and we did that because of course there are lots of props and different scenes that you have in a normal play and for flexibility's sake we decided to go do it in four different scenes so we could work with what every person had and optimize our ability to be creative and present which ended up working
005quite well personally for me i think that this was just a really great opportunity because i've never been in the black history play to get to deal with very immediate issues that are relevant to lots of people and i think they're relevant to each and every one of us actually and and i think that also it was really the best part for me was being able to work and create with people who wanted to continue a dialogue and further a dialogue about black history because it's something that we really need to do and those discussions that we had were at the start with each play we would always discuss but really that discussion carried through the entire thing as we're trying to understand characters better understand why harry is so mad at sydney for example
006and that was a big part of it for me because what i realized and what we all we all know that everyone has different perspectives but to step into the shoes of someone and see how people think differently and how that doesn't make them good or bad but how we can address that was a really big thing for me to see and i think something that hopefully other people will continue to want to discuss as well thank you thank you hello i'm omari taylor and besides umoja and dgs drama i'm a part of i'm a captain of the girls track team and i'm a part of change makers so jasmine basically hit on everything but i would like to give a different perspective so i basically i like the four plays we decided to pick
007it feels very prevalent with all the what is going on around the world for example i was in hashtag matter which was about like black lives matter and all lives matter and how that i can harm or help our society talking about these topics and so that was very important to me for us to have it into our dgs drama and so i've been a part of djs java for a couple of years now and obviously we have reimagined what it means to have a black history month play so for this year it was different from last like last year because well we had both directors miss rubin and mr haywood direct together so that was honestly a great experience because i never had both great directors help with making the production run smoothly so
008moving on to umoja basically we have a podcast called young voices for unity and for the black history play i mean not for the black history month we basically a lot of the times focus on black history in america but we wanted well black history is everywhere so the topics were african culture versus black american culture and we had seniors andy a gay who is from ghana and sarah nuale who is from uganda or uganda and they gave their perspective on what it was like living in their countries and moving here to america they talked about the differences in the culture the language the food and especially the education which was very different and also the society that they lived in in their countries so that was a very great different perspective and they painted
009a really great image on the differences between here and in their countries so that was something with the podcast that we did to reimagine black history for the month of february and another thing that we did was basically a social media challenge so we asked people students and staff to take a picture of themselves with the quotes of their favorite black historical figure so for example i did web the boys and then i had one of his quotes next to me and a picture and we actually had a lot of people do this for example the latino student union they had their people take a picture with the quote and like dgs drama also did it as well and then other staff members so that was great and that was just two out of the
010four ways we as umoja reimagined black history so i'll give it off to cam hi my name is cameron harper and i'm currently a junior here at south i'm the president of emojia but besides emojia i am in class board and national honor society so amari kind of already touched on the two things that we did which was the social media challenge and the young voices for unity podcast but we also hosted a trivia night and a movie night through zoom for the movie night we showed um harriet which was on february 17th and it was pretty good we had a pretty distant turnout and then the following week we played um about eight kahoot games different cahoot games that the cabinet members and the sponsors mr white and miss f we created them on
011our own so we thought it would be a good way to kind of learn but in a fun way and then the winners of each kahoot game got a gift card of their choice that was emailed to them by mr white or miss f and from the kahoot games they were from numerous categories so it wasn't all just one thing that we were focusing on some of the categories were women sports education entertainment we have one touching on kind of like little known facts things that's not mainly known to the public but yeah that and then the movie tonight along with the podcast and the social media challenge is the four things that emojia decided to host in order to commemorate black history month for this year and yeah do you guys have any questions
012excellent presentation yeah any questions you said you do i said excellent presentation [Laughter] uh what were the quotes you what quote did you select not it doesn't have to be verbatim like you did like mario dw du bois oh i did a quote by maya angelou i can't remember the specific quote but i will read it to you guys in just one second somewhere i would have to do the same thing so yeah we're not going to test you i mean you just feel like about right oh okay i mean i have it all right so now is the accepted time not tomorrow not some more convenient season w.e.b dubois yes very good and while she's searching the podcast is that downloadable through the dgs website um there is a link i know it is
013on spotify and i believe apple music apple music okay i'll make sure that i make sure we'll put it on this weekend yeah also we had um three it's three episodes and the first one is like 30 minutes second and 30 minutes and the other one is 24 minutes so it's pretty lengthy but really great content and it's young voices yeah it's young voices for unity so it's the acronym and then yeah it's the acronym basis okay thank you okay i have my quote here right now it says [Music] success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it by maya angelou very nice nice thank you ladies any other questions did you have one zoe go go ahead hello hello okay um well first of all i watched the plane
014you guys did a great job and i just wanted to ask did you guys have any favorite moments from rehearsing or shooting or anything particularly memorable um i would say doing act free me and diana boone both spilled water on ourselves so that was that was pretty funny i guess i would say in black flag probably just the part where we get mad at each other and yell it's just fun to be loose and free but it's also pretty a pretty good depiction of how sometimes reality can be [Music] i'll reiterate i normally don't speak after they're done but i reiterate the podcast is great i spend as much time learning listening to that as i've been learning anywhere else during the day the kids perspective is unbelievable so i'll second what about he said
015and then finally tomorrow he's about us too some of you watched her probably on the village of woodridge's monthly meeting in february she was featured on there i know okay yeah sorry i'm sorry i didn't mean also one of the the first few episodes that were released you can hear both me and amari talk on separate episodes mine is the system versus choices that was the topic for the episode i was on what was you oh um also there will be a next episode and i'm also featured in that as well as well as clinton from north and uh that will be about uh implicit biases and microaggressions which is what our mustang weight lesson was on today i'm sorry which chose what we had a mustang away lesson presented online today in third period
016and we were also in that but it was touching on microaggressions and implicit bias and we collaborated with black student union and their sponsors from downers grove north as well thank you thank you well done moving on to the student board member questions and comments before uh before they start we have some big news regarding sam this week sam was named as the high school journalist of the year in illinois congratulations and you're you're you're going to study journalism in northwestern correct or what are you studying at northwestern you're studying journalism at northwestern correct or something else yeah i'm going to try to transfer into the madel school of journalism after the first quarter cause uh i heard it was easier to get into the regular school and then transfer in than to apply directly
017to journalism so i figured i'd do that smart choice well either way i mean political science journalism yeah yeah yeah so the the national competition is i believe march 15th so i once on the off chance that i get national journalists of the year i'll let you guys know definitely all right we're rooting for you we're rooting yes all right but um in terms of what has been going on i mean not much has changed since last week when i last gave a report but um some small things well one small thing one big thing i would say the athenas and for the sports world we're one spot away from making state this past weekend um i believe that south qualified which is really cool um a little bit salty but it's okay and then
018i think this is super cool the other bsu hosted event uh that i was talking about that happened this past thursday it was i think it was called a black professionals panel and um i just wanted to give a shout out to miss brittany mitchell for i don't know exactly who organized what but i could tell based on the people that were there that uh she knew most of the people that were brought in and she had the connections and she brought people in and she was talking to people and having those conversations and it was super super cool to hear all these different perspectives and voices i got to hear from an ex-marine a doctor a lawyer an insurance agent all those kinds of things and just hearing about you know what they do
019but also then how their experience has been different uh being a minority uh a person in a minority group while also being in that kind of profession so it was a really eye-opening experience and i would just say that it was kind of disappointing seeing that almost 90 percent of the people i would say there were teachers i think i was one of just a handful of students that came which is really sad because it was a really really cool experience and i just wish that students you know wanted to get that exposure and wanted to have those experiences a little bit more but i think that that came through in the pbis lesson today as they were mentioning north had one too and it was a lesson on microaggressions and biases and stuff like
020that so i think incorporating into the curriculum is definitely a great way to get all students exposed to it so those are just a couple things that have been happening so really really great week last week so questions thank you okay well another short report over at south but something exciting that happened today i think actually is that four d 99 students earned midwest region scholastic art and writing awards for various creative writing works of theirs they were madeline risque maya hamburg madeline mcgovern and madison smith so very good job to them and then yeah like uh amari and yasmine touched on earlier today we had mustang way and positively north lessons they were about mostly allyship and as they were talking about micro and macro aggressions and you know how everyone at school can
021be better allies for marginalized groups and i personally really enjoyed the presentation i think that they all did a really good job and since there wasn't much to report i just wanted to bring a little attention to an event a webinar that's going on on wednesday night it's for any families or people in district 99 about ways that students and parents can better communicate right now just in general so i'd encourage anybody remote or hybrid to attend it it sounds really interesting and then finally this past sunday i think we got our first shipment of vaccines which is really exciting [Music] thank you questions for yourself thank you both very good very much school year update doesn't want to click there we go all right so thank you for the segway zoe so vaccinations we
022ran a community clinic here at south high yesterday we had about 300 people come through during the day that was put together collaboratively through the folks that are listed there it's really the other superintendents in the elementary schools that are my partners along with primarily the village of downers grove and woodridge were the the main planners but then we had volunteers from all of the organizations listed there cotacare was the third party that destroyed that administered the vaccines and dupage county health department provided the vaccines this was after a lot of work we've been advocating for a clinic like this here since december we've done a lot of work over the last six weeks with some starts and stops everybody knows the challenges right now with acquiring vaccines in the end uh over the last
023last six weeks we've partnered with many other school districts with their clinics to slowly use up spaces and and get staff members through a variety of different clinics and many of our staff are making appointments on their own and getting vaccinated as of the end of the school day today we have 85 percent still vaccinated or scheduled well it rounds out to be 85 14 somewhere in there right so 14 but of that amount remaining uh 5 won't be getting vaccinated because of medical issues or those kinds of things so really we're sitting at about 75 staff members left to be vaccinated so that you know over a six-week period that's you know nearly 800 people vaccinated uh because we all had been working with other organizations and getting staff vaccinated when we originally planned
024on scheduling this we thought that nearly all of the doses coming in would go to municipal employees or to school personnel but in the end we ended up only needing about 500 or so doses for in school employees or municipal personnel so it switched from us believing we were going to bring in a few hundred seniors to bringing in over 700 seniors to get vaccinated yesterday which changed the dynamics of the clinic a little bit you know especially with online registration and all of those pieces that go with it but uh both the village of downers grove and the village of woodridge along with darien and westmont worked really hard to make sure that those doses went to seniors the majority of them went to i think over the age of 73 or 74 but
025definitely over the age of 70. so it was really successful it was a great event we had tons of volunteers here yesterday it was great to see people come through i talked to several people that like this was the first time they had really been out in almost a year so and we're really excited about what this opportunity was going to offer them moving forward so we'll do this again for the second dose so those that received the first dose yesterday will come through for the second dose on the 21st and then what we'll continue to do is work with other pharmacies like the ones we've been talking to julasco mariano cbs walgreens and see if we can find a partnership there where they're looking for a space to run a community clinic and we
026know how to do it now ed and his team were fabulous over here they did all of the facility planning and making sure everything was set up and ready to go ken sorenson over at north high worked on making sure that we had it appropriately staffed for the day so it was a full team effort across the district and across the community so it was a really really energizing day to see everybody come through i'm still a little tired gina got me beat on footsteps because she was she was cleaning chairs i was the runner running back and forth through the building i think she beat me by a few thousand steps so but it was a it was a very successful day well i just want to give kudos to the staff and all
027the work that went in on yesterday i had a couple i saw a couple posts on facebook and also exchanged a couple texts about how well things were done so i really appreciate seeing everybody i came out yesterday for a few minutes and seeing everybody there and just the work you were willing to put in for that it was also interesting as i was sitting watching people come in to get the vaccination kind of the relief that you saw on people's face some people are almost kind of trotting in and they were just relieved so i think it's a great testament to our community and to our staff and the work that you guys are willing to do i think i referred to dr thiele yesterday as nurse so thank you guys for that there's
028a couple of pictures from the day yeah it was a good event thank you how did we notify the community members i saw a few things on facebook yeah community members we turned over to the villages to work on that i mean they have far more inroads with especially senior citizens than than we do it's a different demographic than what we serve so the villages really did a lot of work especially you know two weeks ago they thought they were only gonna have to reach out to a couple hundred people and it turned out to reaching out to hundreds of of people uh and you know unfortunately all of the sign ups for all of this are all online they're all digital so with some folks that took some hand-holding julie was fabulous because a
029lot of seniors called my office because you know it was the district 99 consortium so julie was working all week helping people get in even saturday morning she was talking to people on the phone and then she was the point of contact all day saturday or sunday so you know we did what we could to help but really the villages headed up the majority of that work thank you and my favorite picture of the day is the little styrofoam cooler that they carry in that has you know all of these vaccines and it's just crazy to see just somebody show up with a cooler you know it was just a little shocking that oh that's it you know there's like no fanfare right but a great day uh update in the last week on saliva
030screening you can see we're starting to post to our dashboard we have these metrics that we keep posting the community metrics our internal uh case data and now we're also added to that our saliva sample data so you can see that from the two weeks there was a lot of changes from week one to week two obviously going from required to voluntary but we also had a alternate schedule last week which threw a lot of students off as well because the days that the samples were due were different so you know i wouldn't ex extrapolate too much out from week one to week two we'll see how that goes you know moving forward and see what the trends build out but i know we heard from quite a few people that were concerned if we
031would hit that 10 percent number for the cdc additional guidance for screening numbers and the number of 10 was far surpassed by 47 percent any questions on that i saw that these university of illinois saliva test just got emergency approval from fda is that something that down the road that potentially could impact us here at some time yeah i think it's an additional tool it's a it's a far different test than what we do with our screening right especially with the fact that the samples have to be gathered on site where the screening we have now allow students to do it you know privacy of their home and then bring it to school right it's also a it's an official pcr test the the new one the shield test which is an advantage but there's
032about twice the cost associated as well so gina and scott as they evaluated the screening process did evaluate the shield product at that time knowing that it was going to be available to us soon i think the shield product probably fits a niche for us because it is a relatively low cost easy pcr test so i would think that it would be another tool available to us for families and students to take advantage of i do believe that a a community shield site is being set up in dupage county uh the health department has mentioned that i know i believe that uh senator curran has been actively working to get that in you know in in the county so um i would imagine you'll see that show up for the community sometime soon and just
033to review our planning from last week we formed the task force those invitations went out today i believe from ed and janus and then we're meeting on wednesday night thursday the leadership team is meeting to work on building potential schedule models what we will when we meet on wednesday night that core team will give us things that they want us to consider key themes ideas concepts that they would like for us to build in or try to build into those schedules as we pull all of the logistical pieces together remember we've got to fit guidelines we've got to fit just the the environments that we're working in the size of the building you know the structures all of those kinds of things limitations that are still there on social distancing and those kinds of things
034especially related to lunch periods uh together with our curriculum and and what we're trying to do instructionally throughout the day so we'll try to fold all of that together with their themes in mind over the next week and then next week we'll get out a survey last week when we met i neglected to leave the or to put the word family there just as we have surveyed students families and staff all year we'll continue to do that that'll go out with some of the big concepts that we're putting together for a full in-person schedule and next week we'll bring you to those big concepts with the or the next time we meet we'll bring you those big concepts uh with the feedback that we receive and then heading into spring break we'll get everything set
035up and ready to go and then we just wait for the metrics to get to a point where we could actually return in a full in-person model so we do anticipate additional guidance in the next week or so here from the illinois department of public health the biggest thing that we anticipate that we have heard is a change in the 50 per person limit or 50 percent per space limitation and at a school our size that is a hugely restrictive set of guidance you know we can't even get a full band program together in a space no matter how big that space is you know 50 people and you're trying to do lunch that's very restrictive right so we hope to see that guideline go away and just to go to the physical distancing and
036other safety guidelines and that will greatly impact our ability to plan for a full in-person return so that's kind of what we'll be up to over the next few weeks have you heard of any with the new guidelines that are coming out you mentioned that the 50 per room has there been any talk in illinois about the six feet i know other states have reduced or changed that six feet guidance i don't know what the direction illinois is looking at yeah we saw the cdc make that change based on metrics right and that's what we discussed last week with that change the dupage county health department in our meeting last week was mirroring the cdc language we're just waiting for idph and so illinois department of public health and the illinois state board of education
037to also issue guidance that mirrors that however we anticipate that that they've followed the cdc guidelines in their planning so i anticipate that the illinois guidance will reflect the cdc guidance as it has pretty closely in the past and then when our metrics are in those two lowest levels the lower minimal i think are the two lowest ones but you know we're below 50 cases per hundred thousand below five percent positivity rate when we're below both of those then this full in-person model will be on the table and available any other questions i think the difference in the with the current cdc and currently with idph it's it's six feet being mandatory versus six feet being as much as you can right is that that's that's the nuance that we're just now right the language
038that we've had through the first half of the year was all six feet of distance if possible right and then we were told to interpret that if you could design an instructional plan i.e the hybrid model that would keep everybody six feet away from one another then that's possible right that that's what we've been told to interpret that as so if you can design a plan to keep kids six feet apart and staff sexy that's the plan you need to go with the change that was made in the new guidelines was depending on where the community transmission metrics are there's an area that's that above 50 per 100 000 cases and a uh and above the five percent positivity rate you move into these realms where you must maintain six feet of social distancing you
039must right then when you drop into the lower two levels it's if possible meaning spread everybody apart do what you can instructionally to keep kids from mixing you know follow the other guidelines around contact racing and lunches and those kinds of things but if people are five and a half feet apart if they're four feet apart like that's okay you know because the community transmission levels are lower so that's what the you know they finally uh and then we had that webinar i described last week where the cdc really answered school's questions around what does if possible mean and i think we have collectively as schools have much clearer guidance from the cdc now than what we've had over the course of the year you know we have a lot of people watching at home
040so i thought it'd be good to just go back over that so thank you yep any other questions one other question do we anticipate i don't forget the colors but the the lowest end where we can go back full in person i think it was under 50 you know the blue and then at what level or aren't we looking at this for this year do we not offer remote anymore and and students have to be in school is that been addressed by the cdc that has not been addressed as far as illinois has indicated is that i fully expect that students will have that option through the end of the school year there's been no talk that that would change for this school year the cdc guidelines say that anybody with a medical reason for
041themselves or a family member should be provided that option whereas illinois says all students should be provided that option so far as we move forward we'll move forward with the intention that all students will be able to choose that option because like i said there's no indication that that would change at this time point in time however we are having discussions this week with the leadership team of how do we encourage students to come back you know now that we have we've established a pretty safe learning environment you know we've been back pretty steadily since winter break minus one week we're not seeing outbreaks at school we're seeing every week we check in with our team to make sure we're with fidelity following all the safety practices we are i mean you saw two weeks
042of screening data and you see the number of cases that are coming back in the screening are very very low and we we believe generally overall our students that are here in person are doing better than those that are fully remote i mean we have a lot to offer to our students when they're here with us so one of the things that we'll be discussing with our leadership team this week is how do we better inform people that it's safe to encourage people to come back to let them know we have space for them to be here you know our hybrid plan is designed so that every student can be here every day for half a day for four days a week right and that's far more days and far more frequency than many schools
043in the state offer especially large public high schools so i'm very proud of the plan we've put together i think we've proven we can do it successfully and safely and i'd love for no matter which area we're in if we're in the higher levels or the lower levels for as many students to come back and take advantage of it as possible i mean that's been our goal all year is to get students back to school in person i think our track record of success here too would hopefully be something that people can look at and in order to have confidence and and maybe alleviate some of the fears that people might have had early on um i would hope those screening numbers those the five though the first week the one the second week have
044those been confirmed positive coveted cases are they just positive for a viral load which could be they show a significant viral load it wouldn't be appropriate for me with the number small number to say what came next okay i mean it's just it'd be too easy to identify who we're talking okay it's okay i see so but to be clear that just because there's a positive on the screening doesn't mean that it's necessarily a positive positive covet number yeah it's uh one in ten thousand cases will be a false a false significant finding okay so it's a it's a strongly reliable uh process i see any other questions all right thank you oh boy i need a new clicker here all right few other things the next uh today is our first night talking about
045staffing for next year those of you that remember month year to year this is when we come to you and just give you a heads up that is part of the big conversation that we'll have on the 15th the staffing recommendations that we have that are outside of student course requests okay so the majority of what we will bring you in staffing in a couple of weeks is tied directly to the courses that students select and then we staff to meet what students want to participate in right we we try to bring you recommendations so that students can get as many of their requests filled as possible but every year there are courses that are outside of that we used to call these below the line type courses for those of you that have been
046here for a while but we've changed our our vocabulary to be the courses that are outside of the sectioning process okay and you'll see on here we have a few the biggest one of these is tied to t99 as the board is well aware our attendance is growing rapidly there so to keep up with that change in enrollment we need to add a staff member at t99 and you know we're building out you know we're going to build out that building a great deal over the summer as well so this is the staffing that we need to go along with that change and then the other two changes are related to social work and special services particularly tied to special education minutes we we're having we're seeing an increase in the number of special education
047students across the district and an increase in the amount of social work that goes along with that staffing need and those requirements so you'll see how this fits in on the 15th along with sectioning and all of our other staff recommendations but we always give you a heads up that these are going to be part of that recommendation in a couple of weeks so any questions on any of these hank i have a question um i guess do you foresee that these requirements would stay in place then you hate to hire somebody for one year and then let them go especially in this field you know so do you foresee that we're we're increasing the the employment but then we see that that trend will carry out for maybe five or ten years it's a
048good thing that scott came here tonight scott uh can you answer that question for me scott's been yeah no it's a fair question yeah yeah i'll we'll put you i would hope it would carry on space yeah hope the trend yeah i mean obviously when students qualify for special education they you know the team meets and talks about what kind of services that are are needed and then students have annual reviews and then they have a three-year re-avail so we you know that's usually when services are changed meaning that if you were going to remove services you would do that at the three-year re-avail time you can adjust obviously services along the way so like say when we're talking about the social work you might at the initial meeting determine how many minutes are needed
049and then adjust that it may be more the next year maybe more the next year or maybe less but we don't anticipate um this is a pretty solid number that we feel comfortable with for a long term to provide the support that we need because relationships develop from this and you hate to have a relationship develop and then oh next year now we don't have a spot for you you know no yeah yeah and i guess my answer would be is we've you guys have been great about supporting special education and adding services and we've added social work uh in in the past a couple years as well um and so you can see we're adding to it so it's not going the other way good um so yeah i think it'll maintain what you're
050looking for if that's consistency and getting to know the staff and things like that right the consistency that's the and we do it all based on numbers though so i mean that's how we kind of arrive at our different uh special ed needs for the fte for social work do we also anticipate so going into next year let's all be hopeful next year is a much more normal year than this year but you do have and i forgot the numbers exactly 45 percent here at south 25 or so at north students at least freshman through juniors who are remote all year you have the other side of the population that has been in and out of school all year do we need additional services as we start school next year to support that re-entry back
051into full-time everyday school do we have the supports we need to to to help the kids with that transition in the fall yeah i think there's two two pathways to answer that one is social emotional needs and i think you're seeing some of the response to that up here because you know this is related to special education but we you know we have a lot of resources around psychology social work counseling across the district this adds to that pool you know to share the workload that's going to be associated with that and then when we come back on the 15th gina will be talking about uh other interventions that were we'll be proposing to put in place but that will fall under the sectioned amount of of the fte that we bring you so on
052the 15th we'll bring you that whole picture and you'll see inside of that we are anticipating some need to support students in different ways next school year scott do you feel that this is a good number or did you like say we want this but we'll ask for this or no i feel like this is a solid number to help support and i think people like hank was saying you know if if we obviously didn't get these numbers to go through to get the support then our our social workers and teams that are working to support general education would pick up um pieces of the special ed realm you know of minutes and things like that so this is a perfect number to provide the support and then allow our general ed uh staff to
053take care of our general ed population of students do you feel good about these numbers yeah no i'm excited if we can approve this this would be solid for us good all right thanks for being here scott daniels thank you any other questions all right like i said no approval of this tonight this all comes back with the bigger picture on the 15th but this is always that first preview as we work that way okay finally just master facility plan updates just some quick images here that the projects that continue to come along the auditorium uh just fabulous space slowly coming into shape here or i guess quickly coming into shape you can start to really starting to feel like an auditorium as you look at those pictures rather than just a big box all
