004having dress up days the week before um just like I think one of them is um it's a pajama day and it's like um rest up for the test or something like that to do your best on the test something like that um we did have a few other days plan during testing but something something that's not so much U but something like uh I think one of them is put your thinking caps on and they'll be able to wear their caps that day or um shine bright and and know uh show what you know and they'll be able to wear neon colors just little things like that and of course we'll have some other some other things uh we have a pet assembly um plan for for that Monday morning we're going to start
005on the 7th we're going to start testing on um that afternoon so just trying to get kids just motivated and and like I say ourselves ourselves CU it's our the routin so it does take a all on everybody um energy level wise um so what I brought here is just you know we talk about the 21st century but unless you're actually there you don't know a lot of what they they do so this is we got a thermal and I don't remember exactly thermal di diic I don't know some type of a printer and print press so so here's just some of the stuff that the kids design on the computers and then they put it to to these little things they get this um we have our let me see you can pass if
006you want our little that we have um and then those all of those get for they make there's a backpack and it's all for themselves so that they can take home um there are some shirts that they that they made they did tie dye um because as they're waiting for materials to come in our do power shirt was was one of them but as made waiting for the the vinyls and all that to come in um does really well with having them do other little projects so and then this is also glass that they made so just just so you guys can see what what they're actually doing in the after school program with some stuff Miss has a um art math and class going on for their studying art art projects and um using
007that using math to like find different angles and do different things so it really is um they're doing a lot in there and a lot of going onity so I just wanted to share that with you because unless you're actually there you don't really know are about so um that's about all that I have are there any questions for me thank you for bringing that stuff yes is there a big turnout for the after school um it depends sometimes there is sometimes it depends what's going on so um we tend to have more fifth graders and sixth graders during the the fall semester um because only the girls can participate in sports but uh then when um then like the spring semester we'll have a heavy turnout but then when the PAL Basketball comes and
008we start seeing it drop so it just all depends so any other questions questions than thank you SC do high school and Athletics members super um so we had our students High School to s um you know it got postponed rescheduled so everything still worked out we had a winter fest and the students who intended had a good time wasn't a bunch of but anyway and then our high school went to the science lad um so it's the first time we've been in science lipad for a while and so they went to February 22nd and at New Mexico Tech and we did have um Ariana toar and Gonzalez Place nth in the state in the right to do an event so it was a good experience by everybody they realized that there's some um future
009scientists there at those competitions they're like oh my gosh these guys kind of you know blew us away because there just our kids are smart but they didn't go prepared enough to say oh my gosh this is take this serious like to build a or something yeah they had to get time to learn about it and then had National History Day there at U at Western took 24 kids um they had a total of 11 project one Middle School um student and then her project went to Silver and then I went to Silver City there for the at West and then we had three high school projects and the Middle School St would move on to the state competition in April and and that's up and so that's good too that we're National hist some

012graduation be all over for some of well for for for for a while next any questions maybe we should have a motivation like a dut day or something for high school for testing or something Scott says he I do have it's theight right I do have a so shout out toight you hear this yeah any questions thank you for all your efforts okay for sports um C baseball softball we get started the schedule out um then the bo both the boys and girls basketball finished Third District play um and then we we hosted a silver dimming game um they needed a neutral site to play because they were going for first place in District so we noed that and then lieutenant governor H Morales had a little half shootout if you made four shots you
013win $500 and then he allowed us to do it for our game the next night you know he wanted to do like a Tri County but he but he understood that none of us were going to be there you know from Hado County that night so he let do it in our basketball games we played the girls and boys played so that was nice to him um we we will be hosting three track Mees this season football and volleyball schedules almost for next year and then the first track meet was just this past Friday or yeah Friday at Hot Springs um weather wasn't too bad but our girls ended up fourth overall in in the the traing I think there was nine so girls are tough again um and I the boys in place but
014right now so I think ours will be good um the boys basketball team um finished out the season um few Saturdays ago at at msia on the boys played for the dist Championship it was good a tough season boys had a difficult um start of the season and this was coming from the coaches um but after Christmas we went um 11 and six but we show you know we did fall show for State we had two BO make all district that was um is said two oh no he left off one I don't know who the other one is name but maybe boys make all district maybe we don't know who those names are yet but you know and then Zeke finished the season as a leading score that's what I'm supposed to say we
015had two boys make all district and we don't know who they are right now Zeke yellow finished the season as a League score in 2A and the third leag score in the state um regardless of class and then we had five seniors that that will be going to miss next year but we have some good talent returning next year RS basketball team um you know we had basically 10 girls in the year when the junior highight finished the season six Educators moved up we play Championship lost up with the ti breaker we end up 14 season and then we didn't make it into the state as well so um we'll be looking forward next year and then our cheer went to J carry this last weekend and they took first place in the um the

01778 any questions do we still have a treny officer that's getting there both we had one at high school and one for Middle okay and that's through the gjcs right still no no okay thank you question question so we'll move on to item number five public forum sign for public forum here for public forum think they are yeah okay did you so did you sign I did well you just yeah take could just and then we could just put it on the record I guess we can right yeah you can fill it out in a little bit J yeah when you you want yeah that's fine so you can tell us what's going on go ahead and yeah you can stand you don't even fit in that chair I was told at this last but
018the other form was for the junior the junior height of kids which will be the seventh graders if they would actually be able to start track um cliff and believe Reserve their track meets they have where they have Junior High which is and eth grade and they have um the high school track meet run at the same same time so that's the reason we're here we're asking if we would be able to allow the seventh graders to or add the eighth graders to uh step up and run track and go to those meets and compete with the junior high track meets that are there I know that last year there were like three track meets that the high school team actually went to that middle school was involved um I spoke to coach Al right
019now I that track practice he said that already there they would be the ones coaching and they would actually take the kids with them um to those needs to compete with the junior so we're not allowed to address but I would just like to say I did call nmaa and spoke to Desy who was in charge of the whole Mexico seventh graders and all that like for them to go practice with the high school is not allowed that would create sanctions if found about it it because it's forfeit games stuff like that and that's what they can have their own team in practice but we don't we're not set up for that this year and I have to check I just spoke to well I have to check with Hooper yeah and because this year
020I mean it's very very late in the year and to have a team of just five or however many it is I mean we would have to have the whole program we couldn't just take I I thought he said that they would do their own would be at the same time but they would be running with each other and right yes it had to be completely seg but since the junior high was not set up with track te I don't know if we get that set up this so um talking to Mr MOS he he talked to me about it and all of that is scheduled at the very beginning of the year when they have their middle school um meetings and they they set up everything at the beginning of the year he said
021when it comes to track because we don't have a track team he sits back and lets them schedule the track meets um but because we haven't had track in so long that it's not for this year it most like it wouldn't be feasible to do it right but we can't look at having the coach and having a junior high CFT team but won't it this year but we can look at it for next year but they but they are absolutely not I mean because it would have to be completely separate practices away from the high schoola rules and yeah there's so there's no way that we can get a team year legally I mean I can check with and talk to but like I said everything scheduled at the beginning we don't have a designated
022team we're not there's nothing I mean normally it just doesn't happen The Season's already started we we said we didn't have a team we don't have a team so it' be hard to and eighth graders are allowed to they're allow they're allowed to participate in high school with the varsity level right right so if this if say we cannot do this but next year um if we can get the interest like we would need to have like a and then will the sixth and seventh graders participate like how they do like Junior High boort yeah and eighth graders so if I could ask just to ask anything that you know it wouldn't hurt to ask and if they say no it's no right but if you can see any possible way we can yeah participate
023you know saying that that there's two weeks before the track meet for junior high level if we can cuz I don't think it's hard because I ran the track meets before and then people have here to try to qualify for state and you know it's just a matter of getting the team and seeing if nma able let us and because all the teams are signed up they're scheduled yeah and how many um players do we need that's another question too like well how many Advance yeah okay that's something that you know when it was when it was discontinued years ago was because of funding MH and then they tried to get it back but there never was enough interest to justify so and you know four or five kids is not enough really to create
024like funding meaning that like paying the coaches out or well the coaches the transportation okay yeah well they I guess they many years ago I guess they had really serious budget issues and didn't have funds they had to let several things go okay yeah yeah see but I cannot promise thank Youk you for coming in and thank you guys for calling us and making us aware so we will move on to item number six board of education issues great so just a reminder March 25th we have a region 8 spring meeting and it'll be here um I'll send out a reminder now have we had many responses on that we've had two probably have wait the last minut which just kidding I'll call them yeah yeah and then the New Mexico School Board Association School

028advertise all three of of our school based clinics um and GB is is definitely on there um we do have a new medical provider who's providing services at the school based clinic now um she's been there a couple of weeks um she's seen a couple of kids but um we need to do some advertising and get some of the word out um one of the reasons for us coming here um is to kind of showcase that and let you guys know that she's there um she is a nurse practitioner by trade um she specializes in Pediatrics and so um she's a good fit for the school-based clinics um like I said she's had a few kids that have gone by um she's excited for the school-based model um and kind of what we do and
029being on campus and that kind of stuff so um we're excited to have her there um the school base itself was closed for a little while um during the pandemic we lost some providers and had some Transitions and stuff and so we were closed um we had a behavior health provider there for a little while that was doing tele Health Services um and he's since transitioned um and so um we've been looking for a provider to put in the clinic um especially for medical appointments it's important to be in you know in the building on campus um do that sort of stuff so she's there and the hours are on the the flyer um so we're trying to do some advertising we have some um signage that we've purchase and we'll be putting up actually
030physically on the building so whenever you're in the parking lot it will say the hours when we're there I think right now it looks like we're still kind of boarded up so we're trying to work on that um we've put some stuff on our social media um campaigns um and we'll circulate this flyer I didn't know if there was a way um if there's a method for you guys to send this to the parents um to let them get the information at Le let them know that um I know it's only half a day um during the week at this point but um we've got some flexibility in hours if we can squeeze more hours you know there's a need um for the for the students to come in and she she's staying busy we
031can look at adjusting those hours so I think the more we can advertise um keep her busy the better um I know sometimes depending on the year um sports physicals um get busy you know well child checks you know that sort of stuff so um we'll try to keep her available for that as well speaking of not interrupt sorry I have a question on sports physicals sure would there be a way to have like a provider come like to the gym one day at the beginning of the year maybe one day right after from a licing perspective we can do it at the school Base clinic but we could we could look at like you know just so we could have one day and it's just four physicals I think that would make it a
032lot easier yeah I think we could look at having the school Bas Clinic open for that reason um it would just have to be at the clinic just because billing and that kind of stuff we can't on campus I don't know if you have any insights it's fine the federal government requires us to provide care um in our in scope site LIC facility contact me and we can get that going I know timing usually the end of the summer beginning of when school starts those those physicals need to be done so we can coordinate that closer um I think that's kind of the high level stuff I wanted to cover from the school Base clinic is there any questions I I can clarify from the school based perspective no thank you for coming you know
033just based on whato County day you know we our kids didn't not know it was open to them so um you know surprising to me we were really pushing information out but that's it's good feedback to have I'm glad that you guys are here willing to tell us like Hey we're we're here you know which you guys always been good to us and um I just wanted based on intern for high school Yes actually you took the words out my mouth ask it was okay to bring Dr up so he can talk to yeah of course thank youa thank you you um good evening and and of course the schol staff thank you for the opportunity to come and talk to you um I think we've done a lot over the years um in support
034of the schools and you supported us but I think there's so much more we can offer and so we've been talking and uh when we asked Amanda to get out in front of the school boards and the different School Representatives so um a few things I want to cover do I have about do I have the 60 minutes yeah I guess I'll be dinner on you afterwards first first I want to say thank you for your support of K Medical Services HMS is celebrating its 30th Anniversary this year and we've got a lot of things that are coming up because of that um it was because of people like you who came together in 1995 to reincorporate HMS and apply at the federal level to become a federally qualified Health Center um and that really
035has expanded what HMS can do and has grown significantly over the last 30 years we wanted you all to know that um the county hiago county has a population in 2022 of 4,160 people and HMS has served 3,428 unduplicated patients just in hio County we provide about 42 jobs to the community it was up to about 69 pre pandemic but a lot has changed since and so of those 3,428 individuals that come to each Master for services for either Primary Care Behavioral Health dental family support that's not counting our senior services that we partner with the county on um that equated to about 16,000 visits a little over 16,000 visits over over the last year um so we're just proud to serve the community and one of the things that we wanted so glad that
036came up was the student rotations um we are partner with all the school systems to have any interest we just got to find the right Partnerships to collaborate to have the students come into our organization become employees on a part-time basis and rotate through the organization based on the number of hours available that they would have so they would follow our nursing Staff Check in patients get vitals learn how to do vitals do the clinical aspect go up into the dental Department work with their dental assistant and dentist and hygienist um um Behavioral Health is kind of off limits as you can imagine but the other aspect that we're adding in is Administrative rotations not everybody's interested in clinical medicine or clinical health care but there's a lot of great careers in healthcare so um
037the model that we are starting with another one of the schools and we love to do with you all is to do clinical rotations with follow a matter around watch what the chief oper chief operations officer does in house follow me around talk to my board we going to have them come and sit in on board meetings um so they can hear how they're different and what that experience is like so we're building that however you all would want to partner with that um and as many hours as they're willing to give we hire them as um um and I'm trying to remember if there was an age limit I think there's a lower end cut off but it's really for high school students and um get paid at minimum weight the whole time they
038there rotating so feedback has been really positive we'd love to expand that to you all and then and I'm Happ to answer questions the last thing I want to say is HMS was founded in hadalo county and I don't think we do enough for the schools um I've gone through Alber Dias as one of your coaches to help with sponsorships and the footballs and the volleyballs but I just think there's so much more we could do as you know sponsoring the different sporting events that you all have we have a p coming up to Chicago we'll do it with and it really is budget based but we would love to be able to partner with you more in any way we can right I think we need to do a better job of getting our
039providers to come and talk to the kids one of the things that we um that I don't want to fail to mention to you is we've received two federal grants this year for one is for expanded Behavioral Health and that's the one we can do some some good stuff in the schools the others for justice involved individuals so that one wouldn't apply but a two-year Grant and we just got permission from the federal government to use some of those funds to come into the school and have our Behavioral Health therapists do group sessions with the students that want to participate so that's something else we got we just need a point person to talk to um I'll probably have a man the point person excuse me for HMS um this extremely important work that that
040me why the government's giving up you know helping fund some of these initiatives because the Behavior Health crisis is so severe across our country and our communities and our small world communities um we are uh going to be expanding we were going to do it tomorrow but now we're shooting for Thursday we're going to be providing behavioral health teleah health services to the animous clinic for those students out there and you know we have those services available to you all there's just so much more in education that we need to do uh to make sure that your students and their parents have the access that they need so I said I'll pause there any question oh I think it's great that you're doing this we had just touched on this I think at our last
041meeting we were or the meeting where um Joanie and Margaret came in and gave us the numbers and we talked about how we needed to start getting programs or something in there so that these kids could voice what's happening and maybe have the outlet in a safe zon abely absolutely historically through the school based he Center contracts that we've had too we we've allowed the like the medical provider when we have provider um come talk to teachers like if you guys have an inservice for the teachers and we can be part of that we would be welcome to partner in that situation and we've also had medical providers who've gone to the health class and done some kind of a presentation I think it it puts it puts the providers person you know um as
042a face in front of the students inste to' be less apprehensive to go to the school based CL because I met her you know see her that kind of stuff so we can coordinate on that too there's any any opportunities um from that perspective too I know we're towards the end of the school year which is crazy to say but you know for planning for next year we can break into that stuff in there that where there's an opportunity I'm grateful that you guys have gone back and put somebody back in the in the building well we've been trying for a while and especially in the rural area you know a lot of our doctors and stuff you know it's hard to get you know like teachers it's hard us to get teachers so it's
043hard for them so if I may there's nationally there's about 117,000 individual pH shortage in New Mexico at 1700 so you can always extrapolate that out to All healthc Care professions and and there's been just ever since the great resignation coming out of the pandemic um providers are moving around as I'm sure teachers are well there's a high demand there's a lot of a lot of turnover unfortunately in healthcare we uh constantly are recruiting and making offers because we know as soon as we get one on board it takes about 60 days once they sign a contract to come to us um and that 60 days somebody's going to leave so we we had a really hard for us not to keep the school base Center open and sometimes we'll get providers that don't want
044to drive down and you know for them and then they quit and so we just we just will continue to work hard to keep that Clinic open we really will thank you so much we really do appreciate it thank you for all your efforts I do have one question to CNA the certified nursing assistant you don't have anybody that can teach that so high school students I me what we what we do is medical assistant okay so versus a CNA most CNAs are more Hospital based right um or nursing home based but we do medical assistance and we hire anybody with the high school diploma and then we put them to our own training program and then they are required to get certified within six months and then we that's that's a um it's a
045we have a career matter so they come in at an entry level they get $2 raise when they get certified six months and then we have three more additional levels that um where they can increase their salary well I was think I mean they could maybe come in and teach one class a day to have a like open to seniors when they come out of high school I would love to do that love to partner and yes I think that would be a wonderful thing to do you know um yes absolutely okay so who's appointment should we just work directly with you yeah for for now SC all right we'll make the connection app thank you guys for coming thank you appreciate it love positive [Music] things next up the school calendar and there's like
046three samples or two samples in here is there two or three three three but uh anyway one is just like we have now and then there's one with what four Fridays and then one with nine Fridays the first one's like this year the second one um took away some days for Thanksgiving and moving to a fall break and then the third one we incorporated um about six or eight weeks of Fridays for kids to get the additional fall break and that that third one would give the fall break Thanksgiving break and then all the other breaks right so basically that just adds a fall break to the schedule right and we'll send it out for people to vote and we're still Ryan's still working on yeah I I appreciate his work yes but I think
047the thing is some parents have to give a little back if they want to see a fall break Thanksgiving break you know you're gonna have to come to school on Fridays like well yeah so yeah and that's and it would only be like for weeks if that's what happen and before does the union have so as long as we keep the days the same we send it out to all the St we send it to the union the union votes ons or yeah we'll send all drafts and then the staff will vote and then that's the one we normally present to you but these are not the final grass we'll be sending out not yet I mean we're almost at year round almost draft three well but but yeah except youi Mr did you want
048to speak on this no okay over there giving me sign yeah I I think yeah you like number three that's what you're saying okay yeah not the other one yeah we'll bring it to the board for a vote on right and we'll show you all the ones that were actually presented and we we get them I think these three are good I don't know are you working on my forth one or what well no just we need twe any I'm still for year around just go after yeah I'm just saying that you know parents are GNA be like oh they're taking our away Fridays you know I could really hear it yeah but that way then you want to go till June give and take almost year if you don't want to do the Friday
049yeah and it's like starting August 4th on the third draft right it's not starting July because everybody thinks July still summer yeah okay to me thank you Ry putting your brain working hard thinking hard any other questions or anything on that no sir so for the next board meeting we'll have a one approved at the next board meeting and then we'll have teachers input Union input and parents input right we we'll put it out do we put I don't think we put it out for parent vote last year teachers just teachers too much of the time coach last year because we didn't know if we're GNA have to go four five so do you think it's better just to do just teachers and Union or um we can put it out on parent Square yeah
050once we get it finalized we can put it out on parent Square because we get see what the consensus is yeah just be prepared with an article like parents you got to give a little yeah get a little so next projects there's some rough estimates some are actual some are just we couldn't get hold of anybody and just came up with a number um so if we did go out for Bond we'll be eligible for 3.2 million so if you add all these up that's quite a bit more than 3.2 million so no I don't think it's billion dollars right for a softball field no no no oh yeah wow yeah just making sure wow that's fancy yeah so 1.3 so just 200,000 for the um or two million rather for the softball and baseball
051by any chance did you hear anything from our legislators representatives to see if Lordsburg or the school district got some of that funding I have not heard anything I could probably call one on the dtms versus carpeting in the office library and the Band Room the band room isn't that where they do like the different little like um movie night and stuff is it a good idea to have carpet in there being that there's refreshments and stuff served and it's going to kind of get ruined it's I think at this there needs to be some type of flooring in there because the flooring that is in there the carpet right now it's it's not very good um I don't know how uh how if Ming nights will continue next year or not um we've only
052had I think we've had one in there this year um and that's because the there was such a small group that that that was yeah but but either way the the flooring will need to be replaced whether it's replaced with tile or with carpet or yeah I'm just looking at the wear and tear of the carpet with liquids and and then the sink that's right there also I didn't know then we had that paint KN in there so that that's just what I'm trying to look at and it could always be swapped to like vinl or some kind of yeah floor out thing the ISS why we're rather the sound the carpet really absorbs a lot of the sound yeah especially if they to do so does the gy be great if we a band
053we can bring band back and that way we could do it for sound and maybe just think of doing things else I know um just Just For Thought yeah anyway we don't have to decide on these I guess my main question is so do you want me to proceed to go with a bond election for next year eligible well for November the November election I said we get 3.2 million if if it passes yeah each year you delay it it'll go up because our bond balance is coming down so that so it's just kind of a but then prices are going to be going up too so I don't know if it would be any good to wait or not and it would probably be a two-year wait unless we did a special election because
054we can only do it on the regular election so be this November or two years November that would be on the general election so okay so I I'll I'll get the B start on that do we need a motion no no no I just need no so when I bring it either next month or may then we'll have to have the motion yeah I just want to make sure something we wanted then we can determine the project we already spend last year's Bond right you said or no we're down to yeah it's gone thank you and and then I thought maybe we can do some more projects or so but you can kind of look at this and kind of be thinking on what you want um for sure we need to recurve the baseball
055field um and we could tell teams right that it's they have to have plastic leats on that so we can kind of save it a little bit because some teams the cleat well they do but then they have turf on other fields and they require the other team to have plastic cleats so they won't the We Care in there um I don't know we can do everything but the softball field I just wish the city would just come to right an agreement with the school and say they could far it and we're we're going to try to find them I don't know they make them and I don't know how much I might be cheaper to build a new softball field but even like maybe motorized fences or something where it's easier for the guys
056to switch you know easier and faster but I don't know if that's even possible I just I don't know it's hard to look at something like that when you see all the things that need to be done like the rvt roof and you know things that maintenance maintenance things that required for continuing to provide a quality educational place right and we could even up the baseball field a little bit and like redo the concession stand maybe in restrooms no those restrooms are old there's no grants out there like environmental grants or anything that check into for like sports facilities but they like to just stick to the educational stuff unfortunately and same with state Capital Outlet things like that it's all it's all education based that's what I was thinking Capital outlet but there's usually
057not a lot of that no they normally limit us to like 100,000 we've gotten it yeah okay I guess yeah I'll just put it on for the next agenda to be approv okay and then for student scholarships Mexico School boards um I got two of your emails on your student choice um sorry we' had an email of yeah three choices but they do not have to be any those were our top three students and so um if I haven't heard just email me the names and then I'll let you know what the final isn't go okay so I need from three up here and by when do you need that um the deadline is April 11th but so our next board meeting is April 14th so I just need to and we that's for them
058to have received of so um I'll send out a reminder email this week and then the student achievement awards the Mexico school boards we did and I mentioned that you know we did the two that were suggested okay so thank you yeah there's any questions anything on that it's all we will move on to item number nine action items discussion and possible action on resolution for part-time employee participation in insurance program right every year we do this and it is just so that we can continue to provide health care for our parttime employees do we need to move it to next time because it needs all the board M signatures um all of us are there's not all we got to do is put yeah I think it just have to have a a quum
