Hi. Lindmark. I. Motion passes 6. I'm turning it over to Dr. Smith if you want to keep going and we'll come back to the staff intro at the end of the stu superintendent report. Thank you. Okay. Um let's see. Hold on. I got to get my other script to just one. Okay. Debbie, do you promise to behave? I always Okay. So, we'll always succeed, but we'll try. We did pass down a map um from Debbie that all board members have. Okay. Um we have one person participating and she knows the rules because she's sitting on the other side of it
003all the time. So, um first particip participant is Miss Debbie So. Thanks, Nancy. You're welcome. Good evening. My name is Debbie Sine. I reside at 585 Tanglework Court in Algangquin. I'm here as a village president, a grandparent of three students at Westfield School and a concerned resident of the community. Most of you either know me or of me. I know your one pri number one priority is education of the students. I also know your concern for their safety. The safety of the,200 students that attends Westfield is imperative. Also included that should be the safety of the parents who drive them to school to drop off and pick them up on a daily basis. Sleepy Hollow Road is not, I repeat, not a safe environment during those times. I have been working for three years trying
004to address this situation. Safety is a major concern in this process. In today's world, there's crazies all around us and the road rage is increasing. With the development of the Meadows subdivision just west of the school, the village has worked with Lonar and Westfield staff to develop an access road to help with the safety concerns the police department has and you should all have. I gave you all a letter from the chief of police previously. I also have a photo of the original discussion with Westfield staff regarding the placement of the road. That is the pink mark on the map that you have. Working with the Westfield staff, they indicated the need for only one baseball field for the school curriculum. I ask you, what is more important? The safety of the,200 students at that
005school or an offsite softball team? That access road does not have to be pushed closer to the homes backing up to the school property, increasing the cost of it going in. I was given an estimate from LAR of $600,000 to build this access road from the meadows to the current school parking lots. The impact fees the village is collecting for this development is well over $900,000 for district 300, thus paying for the road plus. We all know the development impact fees are to follow the students in the schools they attend. Thus, Westfield will benefit directly from this development. The development pays for this road, not district 300. I know you have Westfield in your master facilities plan, but not in the next few years. Lenar will have their road construction vehicles in place shortly and
006have offered to partner with you to build that access road now. This will be the most cost-effective way for District 300 to get this road done, saving tens of thousands of dollars for taxpayers. Nancy, be the leader I know you can be and do something now. It's imperative for the safety of these kids and the cost of of this for the taxpayers that we do it when it's most economical for everybody. Thank you very much for your time. Thanks, D. Okay. Can I sell, can I ask superintendent a question about the map? Sure. Martino, when we had the original discussions Uh I believe it was Mr. Mikl that presented a map and I had asked him a question that night about the distance from about home plate and we talked about it for a couple
007reasons not only for the softball field or baseball field as it's used for both but also potential of a soccer field which we've talked about and haven't implemented but it is at times used for soccer that in that swale. This uh picture that we're receiving now looks very different than what we uh talked about and discussed and it it clearly um what is it saying? It's 145 ft from the property line. So, you know, there there's a lot of loss of of of of property with this with these dimensions versus what we heard from Mr. Mikl. Uh, and I think that was an open, but I believe we talked about in operations as well. In operations, yes. Yeah, I can I think I can speak to what you're asking me. Okay. Um, I can clarify
008that there is more than one existing map of what the options of the road are. Hearing um what Debbie said about the discussion she's had for three years. Three years would have been prior to me seeing this map. So, there are multiple maps that are out there of what this road could look like. And that will be something we need to bring back to discuss which map if any we want to implement with adding that road when we talk about the parking lot updates. So this would not have been the map that you saw. Okay. Any other comments, questions? Great. Thanks. Moving on. Let's see. Um want to do Dr. Smith, do you want to do staff introductions now or you want to wait? Go ahead with good news. Okay. Thank you. Sure. Let's um
009go on to good news. It's item number eight. District 300 will host Caribbean American Heritage Month event. District 300 will host a Caribbean American Heritage Month event on Thursday, June 26th from 600 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at Jacob's High School. The free event will feature a performance by the Tropics reggae band paired with an interactive workshop exploring the musical traditions of the Caribbean. Late snacks will be provided. All are welcome. King County Teachers Credit Union recently presented a check for more than $4,000 to the D300 Foundation for Educational Excellence. The funds were a result of the King County Teachers Credit Union Affinity Visa card program where a portion of every credit card transaction is donated to the foundation to enhance and extend District 300 education at the classroom level. District 300 community members enjoy music
010and more at the Junth celebration. District 300 community members attended the Junth celebration last week at Carpenter Park in Carpendersville. The annual event included music, food, games, and speakers. Junth became a federal holiday in 2021. The day commemorates the end of slavery in the US. Just just I I've attended that event. That was really the best one we've had yet. And it was a lot of fun and a lot went very well attended. We even had a um a group a day camp group from Streamwood come up to participate. and they had a great time and you know it was really like I like I said every year gets better and better and better. So I'm looking forward to you know what what's going to happen next year and thank you Tola for all your
011hard work on that and your um initiating it and Adrian and his team and you know it was just it was just really it was a lot of fun. Um okay see would you like me to where do you want me to go? We're ready. Staff introductions. Thank you. Let's go back instruction. If I could please have Mr. Frank Williams come up to the front. You get to stand front and center right here.

So for the superintendence report, I would like to invite Mrs. Jennifer Vog up from the president of Discovery Works Collaborative. Um Mrs. Vog is going to talk to us about some next steps with our master facility plan and just some work we have the option to do over the next year. Great. Thank you very much. Good evening everyone and thank you for having me tonight. I'd like to talk tonight about a potential process to help move your strategic facility plan forward and some potential next steps as you continue to work towards facility updates. Um, as Dr. Smith mentioned, my name is Jennifer Vulk. I'm the owner
015of a company called Discovery Works Collaborative, and I've had the privilege of being able to work with school districts around the country for a little over 20 years now. Um, and our goal as a company is to truly connect school districts with their community through public opinion research, strategic communications, and community engagement. A lot of times this does also lead to referendum efforts, and we assist districts with that as well as far as informing communities and making sure people are aware of those proposals. Our team has worked around the country and are proud to be pioneers in this community engagement space. And so we're excited for the potential opportunity to work with your community to help again move the district forward. When we've gone back and looked at successful projects that we've assisted with, we
016found that there are typically four questions that a district can answer yes to when they're able to have a successful referendum at the end. First of all, do we have a fighting chance on public opinion research? Do we have a really rocksolid plan that's rooted in community engagement? Do we have internal unity amongst everyone on our team? And then can we bring the community together for a campaign? What I'd really like to focus on tonight is the process and the process of engaging your community and involving them in planning what the future of your schools may look like. Up here is a little road map that I'm going to walk us through this evening. And it always starts with a charge from you as the board. and we want to know what are you looking
017to hear for from the community. So throughout 2024 you went through a very intensive facility planning process and your community was involved in helping you develop that facility master plan. But what are those next steps and what does that look like? And the charge allows you to ask the community what they think and how can we help move this plan forward and what does that look like? Um, I'm going to walk through the rest of the process in a little more detail, but we will hopefully bring together a facilitating team, which is a community-led team that will help develop this process and really figure out the best ways to engage the district 300 community. We have two points of public opinion research throughout the process. And then we will also be doing a number of
018different community engagement activities to allow your community to learn more about the district, the facility master plan, and help you decide the best path forward. So through the years, what we've learned is to build trust, you have to trust your community. And in a lot of cases, the community is just waiting to be asked. So you have over 75,000 residents here, and we need to really get out there and figure out what they want for the future of your school facilities, and this process can help with that. Over time, we've found that discovery is more powerful than persuasion. It's actually where the name of our company came from um that we transitioned to last year. If you think about all of the fantastic teachers that you have in this district or ones that you or
019your children have had, it's likely the ones that are coming to mind are those ones that really had hands-on experiences and allowed the students to discover the answer rather than standing at a chalkboard and explaining out a math problem and how they got to the answer. We as adults and community members are the same way. discovery and allowing them that to discover the challenges you're facing, the opportunities you have, how education has changed since the last time you had a major facility update. They can really help you discover the solutions and the type of schools that they would like for this community moving forward. So, what we found is that community engagement works because your community needs to give permission for meaningful change. Unlike a business that can go to a bank and say, "Okay,
020we want to build a new building." We need to work with our community and decide what type of schools we want and how do we fund that and what does that look like? And for the community to be able to support or not support something, they need to understand that and understand how you got there and why we're there and really get into the facts and allow them to understand that. In the end, you're going to have a powerful communications tool, build long-term trust, and have a community that's willing to work and help the schools. So, what we found a couple key elements. We want to make sure that we're going to involve a large number of people. So, up to 60% of this community doesn't have kids in your schools. We need to make
021sure that them along with your parents and your staff and everyone who lives here has the chance to provide some feedback and to be involved and to learn from the same data and information points. We'd like to bring the community together to have a lot of meaningful conversations um and come to consensus on some tough decisions on how we move forward and then we're going to include a lot of two-way communication. So, I'm going to walk through a a six-step process that could potentially get you to an election day. First up, we would start with, as I mentioned, the board charge and developing that facilitating team. This team is going to have anywhere from 20 to 25, maybe 30 members of the community and we're going to dig deep into the grassroots and find some
022people to help us out with this process. This facilitating team is going to be coordinating the process and facilitating this. This is really their program to engage the community over the coming year. The community as a whole is going to be the one that is coming up with the final product and deciding how we're going to move forward. When we look at that facilitating team, we have a pretty intense process to make sure that we're finding some new faces. Again, as I mentioned, with 75,000 residents, let's find some people that haven't been involved yet. Let's get some fresh faces in here. Um, and people that have differing opinions so that we can really figure out what that path looks like. One of the first things that we have every facilitating team do is develop a
023brand for their process and develop a name. What this does is it gives the community ownership of this process as a community-led communitydriven program. Our team did not come up with any of these names. These were all developed by community facilitating teams and they then grew into programs that are helping really improve all of these districts that you see up here. We will also be working on an electronic survey that will be an opt-in survey that we're going to encourage everybody in the community to take. um that will be coming out this fall and that will help us figure out what the community knows about the facility planning process so far, what they know about your schools, what perceptions are about your schools, all of those different things to give you and the facilitating team
024a starting point as we start this engagement process. Why why do we need to do a survey? Um we really look at this from a communication standpoint. We need to know what your community knows and what they don't know. what they need to learn about, what they haven't learned about yet. Um, and make sure that we're looking at the community as a whole rather than just individuals who may be on a social media platform providing thoughts. This language really does matter. And so, when we look at this sample survey that we did a few years ago for a different district, you'll notice that question A has a bit more of a negative tone to it. We're talking about sacrificing different things and sacrifice sacrificing the progress that we've made. We had about a 45% agreement
025on that question. When we were more positive and visionary, we went up to a 68% agreement. This will tell us what your community is thinking and just what resonates and what doesn't resonate here to help get people involved in the engagement process. It can also tell us what people prioritize. And so in this particular district, you can see that there was a much higher priority put on making sure that we have classrooms that accommodate best practices and curriculum in the instruction while modernizing classrooms for hands-on opportunities is important, not nearly as important as that best practices piece. And so what we need to figure out is what's important here. What does your community value and what do they think is important for the future of your district? Once we have that survey data, we've brought
026your facilitating team together, it's going to be time to start putting materials together and figuring out how we're going to best share information and data with the community and also how are we going to get community members involved in the process. Every community is a little bit different and that's where this facilitating team comes in handy. Our team knows communications. We know public opinion research. Your community knows what it's like to be a District 300 resident and they know the best ways to reach out to different people. So that may be yard signs, that may be text messages, that may be direct mail or social media posts, um maybe different flyers we're putting up around town. We will also want to make sure that we are doing everything in dual language so that we're communicating
027with your community as a whole and they have the opportunity to participate. So once we get this communication going, the goal is going to be to get people involved in the engagement. We want to hear what they think. We want to learn what they think about the future of our buildings. And so we're going to invite everybody to come and participate. We'll be leaning on the facilitating team to help us decide how we best do that. Whether that be largecale community workshops that are led by the facilitating team, might be building tours or open houses, or it may even be what we like to call road shows where we actually go out to different community meetings or community groups to talk with them and gather feedback that way. So, the point being, we want this
028to be very broadreaching and make sure that we're hitting all areas of the community, especially in a district this size. When we have all of that feedback back, we are going to do one more public opinion survey. Um, this will be a 300 sample telephone survey along with the electronic survey to test what we've learned and to see if what we're getting, the feedback we're getting from community engagement matches up with what the broader community thinks. This will be included in a final report to the board that will be given by the facilitating team. Again, this is their process as the community and they'll stand here and say, "Here is how we fulfilled your charge and here's what we heard from the community." If the district decides to move forward with a bond proposal at
029any point, we can help with that multi-channel approach to make sure that your community as a whole knows that you're on the ballot, knows why you're on the ballot, and knows how to vote. And so, we'll want to make sure that we're providing information and information only to the community um and not advocating either way. say yes or no, but we'll help you with those communications as well. These are some samples from a few other districts we've helped with and these materials. We make sure these go out to everyone in the community. So, we'll want to make sure we're talking to everyone. Again, multi-channel, so we'll have the text messaging. A lot of times we'll have videos. I think it's important to have that to show people the insides of your buildings. Um, a lot
030of us who are parents are inside buildings sometimes, but if your kids aren't in school yet or they've graduated, you may not have been in a school in a long time. And so the ability to show the shape your buildings are in and how students are using those today will be important. So, at the end of this process, our goal would be that you've built the foundation to be able to answer yes to all of these questions and have the ability to have a fighting chance at the ballot box to hopefully move your facilities forward in a way that the community supports and is behind. Um, this is just a sample from a district that we worked with recently. They were on the ballot last November. When we started their program, their survey had them
031at about a 48% support level. Theirs was a their program was a very focused on one particular issue. So they started doing community engagement and communications that went through about May and we were able to move that needle up to about 56% with this process. They continued communicating and continued answering questions and they had some different things pop up and we worked with them to make sure they were engaging the community and seeing what they thought and by election day we were up to a 61.3% support. This is what can happen when you involve your community in the decision-making process and really get them involved in helping to make those decisions. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have. Uh, one thing I wanted to add is this will be our next step to
032all of the information we've already collected. So, we're not going back through that surveying phase. And this is a completely new um approach on here's what we've gathered, here's what we heard. Now we want to get down to what charge does the board have for us to make a decision about the long-term multi- um master facility plan. And so this would be a next step and with the support of um Mrs. Vul and her team, we would then be able to bring us proposal to the board, a final proposal I just I want to say that this is the second time that we've gone through this. Um we did have the opportunity as board members to sit with Miss Vulk and um Dr. Smith and in small groups and ask our questions. So we were
033able to do that already. And um I'm very excited about this next step that we're hopefully going to be taking and where it'll lead us. So, thank you again. No problem. Thank you. Thank you. Next, I would like to have uh Mr. Adrien Harris come to the podium. Uh we have a a short update today as we are moving through our interview process for the superintendent student advisory council. It is very exciting. Um people the kids showed up to the party. So, um, we are going to have some great outcomes here, but just a brief update and a full update in July, and we're looking forward to bringing kids to the meeting in August. Good evening, uh, board members, superintendent. um what started out as 86 students that were able to get all of their
034information in and turned in on time. Um we conducted interviews to kind of whittle that down to I believe it wound up being a group of 28 that came back for final interviews. Um and rather than have them move through regular interviews, we actually put them through uh Socratic seminar, which is really a studentdriven or based discussion where you give the students the information up front. they go home, they do a little bit of research and they come prepared to uh discuss. Um the beauty of a Socratic seminar is that eliminates the adult component. And so when it was all said and done, we had 21 students that came in to participate in the Socratic seminars. Uh they sat with eight of our staff member staff members including a number of principles, um a number
035of district uh staff. Um and thank you by the way if you were one of those district people that participated. Um and they had wonderful, beautiful discussions. The topic that they were uh discussing was the idea of fast fashion. Um which for the sake of our students um allows our students that don't have a ton of money to actually still have quality fashion and kind of like the latest in fashion. So it actually increases their belonging. flip side because the fashion is not as durable it actually leads to a lot of waste and a lot of um um horrible outcome for our environment. So the question that we were asking them is is this something that we should be supportive of because once again one of our main goals is to increase belonging for all
036kids or due to the environmental factors if it was something that we should kind of not um celebrate. um they had wonderful discussions that actually they took it in a number of of different ways. Um and we as a committee interviewing them couldn't have been prouder. So at the end of the day we kept all 20 21 because we couldn't figure out how to cut anybody. Um and it wasn't because you know we didn't want to. It was they were just that spectacular. Um and so we look forward to bringing the 21 before you. Um I think we have an exceptional group of young men and young ladies. So, thank you. Any any questions? Sorry, I was about to just dip. Um, any questions? No, I don't have a question. May I have a comment?
037This is really exciting. Thank you so much for doing this. It's super exciting. Um, I've always always wanted to get kids. I I helped Mary McNicholas get elected to this board when she was 20. I think 20 or 21. And and to me that was really exciting because um she was such a she was based she was a student really essentially still even though she had graduated but to have this kind of input for the kids the people who um actually are involved in what we're trying to do and they can give us their opinions on you know I mean what's working and what's not and who better to do that than the kids who a lot of them most of them probably have been here their entire school life K through 12 life at
038least most of it. So, I'm very happy this is and I'm happy that you had such an amazing turnout. 21 is I, you know, some people may think that's a lot. I don't think that's a lot. I think that's awesome. So, thank you for doing it and looking forward to seeing how this all unfolds. So, anybody else? Thank you. Thank you. That concludes the superintendent report. Adrian, real quick, you don't have to come back to the podium, but you guys had over a hundred kids apply, right? 111 that applied. A couple of them didn't get the two pieces in, but that just shows the degree of interest. Sure. And then you ended up you were what was your original um goal like for how many kids did you really originally want to seat and where
039does it compare? We were we we were hoping to bring 12 kids on. So we are coming on. That's what I thought. With 21. So So now So now we're talking 21. So that's almost double. That's great. So I know. Awesome. All right. Thank you so much. Well, operations committee chair is not here, but we can say what's the next date on that? The next operations committee will be July 15th and like we always do July 15th that's my birthday. Um uh I really we do this every meeting but you know I really want to reiterate it again. This this committee that committee is the if you can if you can't come to this committee or this meeting do your best to come to this the operations meeting or look at it online because that's
040where we do all the initial work on stuff they're going to end up voting on. So that's where we, you know, hear about the new issues and some of the old issues coming back, etc. So that's to it's my it's actually my favorite meeting because it's a lot more it's a little more um uh not quite as um I don't know stuffy as this one can be. Um and uh it's a it's it's actually can be a lot of fun at times. So I don't think we're stuffy. I Okay, so I'm the stuffy one. Good. So, um anyway, so that's that's our our usual report. So, let's move on to the other the ad hoc committees. Um superintendent evaluation ad hoc committee to um I just sent out some stuff to um some materials to
041the board members today um for review. So, once we get that all reviewed, we can take the um look for forward to the next steps. Okay. Thank you. um policy. Um I've basically have gone through my whole review of the I've actually reviewed I'm the only member of policy right now. Um but I've reviewed our policies several times and I think at this point we're not so much going to do any rewriting or anything like that is maybe just start thinking along ahead to if we want to if there are any policies we want to add. I think, you know, but what I would like to do with all of these ad hoc committees, if it's okay with the board, I don't know if we have to actually vote on it or not, but um
042once once the handbook uh committee is done with their work too, I'd like to turn these into like maybe a quarterly thing where we um you know, just check and do check-ins and stuff to make sure that everything we're working on is still up to date. And you know, that doesn't mean that we can't in the middle, you know, in the middle of that period if there is something that comes up with the handbook or comes up with a policy that we can't address that. But I think we if only we have a existing ad hoc committee for some of these things I think it it helps us stay focused on you know what's out there what we need to do the work on. So um board u board handbook um yeah so we put
043together what we Nancy and I are on that committee and we put together what we're considering our finished piece of work for the board member handbook and the next step for us was that we really wanted Dr. Smith and Colleen to take a look at that for us. And you know, we all know they have pretty full plates. So, we didn't give them any specific timeline, but when we do hear back from them, then we'll be ready to pass it on to our fellow board members for their review and feedback. So, we're almost done. It's been a long process, but we're almost done. Um, okay. So, let's move on to Oh, well, anybody have anything else they want to talk about? Go ahead, Steve. Yeah, I I just had a timely meeting with the state
044uh Kishwaki uh part of the state meeting just to give you right before this meeting actually started. So just to give you the high points of that uh there'll be two meetings coming up as we've had in the past. There'll be a fall meeting um place to be determined and then a spring meeting. The biggest part of our discussion at the executive committee level was um should we go from two meetings per year to one meeting per year? Like most um most meetings in education unfortunately there's a declining attendance and we're trying to understand you know why that is. Is it uh related to topic? Um for us in Koshwaki a lot of it is related to travel time because we have a very large um geography that um stretches almost two hours from north
