001and then right um before we start uh tonight's meeting at the brown county uh school board on may 19 2020 um please stand and pledge allegiance as [Music] one nation under god indivisible with liberty and justice okay i call this the water at 6 34 are there any modifications to the agenda thank at this you we recognize wizards and comments from the audience on any topic not already on the agenda okay no one signed in for that and with that we have our first presentation um mr austin and ileana cox were not able to be here this evening so there will not be a presentation let me yeah are you going to present i mean i can talk about it sure okay i don't know that i have anything to present but um i can
002tell you about it iliana cox is one of my amazing art students she's a senior this year she um well she entered into this contest for the international violin competition and the international violin competition is kind of known as the olympics of the violin it brings worldwide recognition to indianapolis and it started in 1982 to um kind of mix together music and art and all that and so one of the components of it is a juried exhibition of student artwork and um this year there were 21 000 submissions in grades 1 through 12. she was selected as one of the grand prize winners only five were selected from get grades 11 and 12. she won an award there's a plaque that's going to go up that's got a picture of her painting i she also
003got cards with her paintings on it or they're painting on it and so she was one of only five she got an award from them and she also earned a scholarship to the summer school saturday art program at herron up in indianapolis so she gets to go up there and practice and show them how amazing she is because she's super awesome so um just recognizing her for that and uh yeah it's amazing it's like this big and we got it she got it done just under the wire we had to send it off on a friday to get it there in time and i literally took it to ship it while it was still drying so so she's uh yeah she's very talented she's won several other art awards in locally when i entered her
004stuff in in different shows well that's fantastic especially for james she's amazing yeah well i remember she won a grand prize for the duck uh yes in junior high school she actually won the same contest in junior high school and they used her painting from junior high school for all of their promotional materials and that was what was sent to us this year her painting was in the promotional materials this year cool so it's it's very very cool and her artwork will be part of a traveling exhibit of all the winners for the next three years and then she'll get back yeah yeah i wish she would be able to be here but she wasn't able to and but i just can't say enough wonderful things about her she's awesome yes yes so when she
005can come let's make sure we make another opportunity for awesome thank you guys thank you we have chris townsend and his team to present on the expansion of eagle manufacturing he's preparing to check give me a second here oh you just sit back there in the shadows you're doing your banana white compression [Music] sorry i don't know how to move back up [Music] there we go sorry about that all right so um just a quick presentation tonight so i wanted to go through um a little bit about our eagle manufacturing expansion that we've been working on here for a few months at this point actually um so just want to hit up some key points i'll have a lot of funny time for questions at the end to kind of dive in any details that
006you guys want but um maybe never works this is what happens when you project on zoom sorry there we go how does that do it that way that's right um so first question is why i think uh why are we wanting to expand eagle manufacturing um as far as space is concerned um we are current space we are currently in i think most everybody here has at least been in it at some point um worked okay for when we started and it's worked less okay as we've grown and got more students into the program and expanded the things that we do as a part of eagle manufacturing so we have a lot of equipment and space that is really separate from one another that really should be in the same space to allow us to
007use it a lot more efficiently we do not have room for any more expansion i've taken as much space as i could possibly grabbed from everywhere around us without getting space in another part of the building and we also have some supervision limitations because of that so we have four or five different spaces that students can be in at any given time which presents some supervision issues from time to time um as far as from the student perspective why would we do this it's going to allow us to give them more real world experiences bring in some different types of equipment and different technology it's going to allow us to arrange things a little more efficiently so it's more similar to a real world production environment um so a lot more real world experiences and
008probably more importantly is it's going to allow us to greatly increase the number of students that participate in eagle manufacturing on a yearly basis so at the very least doubling from where we currently are if not more than that um long term especially uh and then also it's going to allow us to the expansion vehicle manufacturing allows us to utilize the space we currently have in the high school here for engineering a little bit better and give us some more space to do more things within the engineering program and it's also going to allow us to expand our construction program and do some more higher level work within that construction program sorry i'm going to jump over here so um yes and i know mr austin presented about this a few weeks ago or a
009couple months ago or time flies i'm not sure how long ago was to be honest but these are all the programs to study at the high school that are affected potentially by the eagle manufacturing expansion um the construction program already talked about we have three courses over the course of three years that students can participate in that program that will be potential or expanded as a result of the eagle manufacturing expansion gives us more space here to spread out construction and do more with it our engineering program which is four-year four-year program will be able to utilize some of the space that is currently taken up with equal manufacturing equipment equipment that isn't used for engineering um and utilize that space more effectively and then the principles of precision machining digital design and business administration
010are all pathways to lead directly into eagle manufacturing so that allows us the expansion also allows us to teach those principles courses outside of the space we currently use which is used for engineering courses so we have issues with overlapping needing to teach in engineering course at the same time as a principal's course causes a lot of issues with scheduling and other things so that alleviates a lot of those issues and then once again allows us to get more students into these pathways as part of that expansion so that's kind of the why uh the how and where is or the how i should say is mostly due to a community donor um who came in and wanted to help brown county schools and we put forth proposal to the uh community donor or potential
011donor at the time for this expansion and all the good things that i've talked about i'll talk a little more about here in a minute that allow us to do for our students so that's a big reason of or how we're going to be able to do this and then also we're going to be utilizing pretty much all the equipment we have now we'll be moving to the new space so that saves us a lot of potential expenditures on new equipment so we will be moving a lot of that and also using an existing space that we have in the district and one that is currently unused which is that red box up there on the screen for reference high schools up there on the north side of the parking lot and then that is
012the kind of mid-ish section of the former intermediate school uh directly to the uh right of it is the gym and directly to the left is where the current cr of crc is currently located so that space in between where the crc is and where the gymnasium is is what we're looking at expanding into this is what that is going to look like i have a little more detailed one here on the next slide here in a second but we currently have the library taking up two of these rooms are i guess the elementary library that they use to house all those materials that go out to the elementary schools um that's currently actually taking the two rooms in the bottom are the southwest corner we're going to be moving one of those across so
013they're kind of across from each other on in the space there and then we're going to be taking these six classrooms three on the north side three on the south side to the right of where those spaces are and that will be converted into what you see here which is our manufacturing lab on the south side uh our admin lab there kind of within the manufacturing lab our graphics lab on the northeast side and then our shipping receiving and inventory area uh they're kind of in the northwest corner this is what it and i know obviously no you can't read any of this but this is what it looks like with actual equipment in the space um this has what the layout will roughly be with all the you know work tables and equipment and
014all the different things that will be going into the space this is approximately what it'll look like um currently working on figuring all that and getting all that finalized but that's kind of a rough layout of what it'll look like and the big benefits here um as i mentioned earlier increased cte course enrollment for students of brown county schools um increase real world relevant experiences for students crown county schools increase the number of students who are prepared for careers in this region there's a lot of need in brown county and around brown county in our region for these types of jobs and the experience that they get potentially decrease or definitely decrease numbers of students going to c4 for similar types of programs so they're keeping most of our machining students for example here in
015brown county versus having them have to travel to c4 and then also giving students more of a reason to come to school and we can engage in their education so it's a real i know most of you have been down to eagle manufacturing so you've seen what it's like what the students do and how they react or interact with the program and um we're just excited to be able to get more students involved and more students engaged in their education so i'm happy to take any questions thank you okay so what is needed to be done to accept the space to accommodate what you're going to do questions sure um so it's mostly there's not a whole lot of structural changes that have to be made there are some walls that have to be moved
016but they're all drywall so it's minimal most of it is honestly cosmetic and just rearranging the space there will be some hdac upgrades that need to be made to that space as well to accommodate the new equipment and the number of students but the big chunk of it is just reconfiguring and updating and making everything look like it belongs there and suiting him for the equipment that we have putting in uh air compressor pressed air system electrical requirements you know ventilation and plus some did i understand you were saying some additional uh equipment yes yes absolutely initially we're working mostly to get the construction done and so we can get over there but long term yes adding some more capabilities what kinds of things would you be able to do i mean like i know
017that you're you just added like screen printing with some other things like what are some of the types of things you anticipate having so uh more advanced capabilities of manufacturing um so allowing students to be able to learn and experience higher level manufacturing processes so as an example um part of the plan is to add a new cnc mill that has five access capabilities which is a much more advanced level of programming and knowledge to be able to do that that frankly doesn't really happen in high school ever very very few high schools do that um adding our automatic capabilities for screen printing so doing are we still doing manual screen printing traditional screen printing but also adding the ability to do automatic screen printing press so we can do set up and run larger
018runs and shirts and things like that um and just in general increasing our volume that we can do because of the space in addition to more students throughout the day and then as far as the staffing i know you and me or obviously the prior staff and i know we were working on one other staff member um how many more staff are we going to need to add or is that going to be it um well we have mr mcgill on the agenda tonight um and then we're talking about uh potential adding on to cover some other courses as well and we're kind of working through what that might be it's we are we've had a big demand for our for sign up for our courses for next year for our principals courses and those
019pathways so more than we anticipated so um we're needing to accommodate more students than we thought we would have to for next year so we're working through that i'm just saying you're saying doubling the number of students which as a teacher means yes should be more staff how do we accommodate that so the majority of that is covered with bringing on our third instructor to be able to take off of my plate some of those introduction engineering classes and then take off mr keeper's plate some intro construction courses um that's where we get a lot of that capacity um and then we might have we're working on ways to maybe fill in a little bit more potentially i don't think any decisions have been made until we know exactly how many kids are going right
020i understand when i hear you know i see this you've got this big facility you're talking about supervision of course that's really important as well yeah and and as a part of that plan it's been designed in such a way that it's much easier for a single teacher to be able to supervise the entire space versus what we have now um so for example you know our screen printing lab that we mentioned is in its own like conference room so it's literally like around the hall with no windows or anything and in this space in that you go back forward one more mr phones thank you um in that admin lab there the advisor's desk is kind of like right there on the hallway incredible window so from that desk you can see in essentially
021the entire manufacturing lab the entire graphics lab and then if you move walk out the door you can see the shipping and receiving areas so it's not perfect but it's much much easier to be able to see the entire space and give more supervision and honestly at this point when students are going to be working on their own they've been through a principles class and they know how we operate so they don't you know they don't last long if they're not gonna you know you know what i so you'll be putting windows then in the hallway so that you can see even though it's across the hallway yeah so yeah all those that mr keyboard is pointing out are windows those in the hallways there are windows so any of those darker areas are all
022windows open windows yeah yes oh it absolutely does yes yes huge difference compared to what we're doing right now because we don't i don't i have zeros anywhere even to the outside did any of your existing students participate in the design of the new facility absolutely um so um we had ideas about what we wanted to do and you know because we knew things we were gonna have that they weren't aware of but this was something where like for example our shipping receiving area i brought in our current shipping receiving manager and we sat down and had a discussion about what would be best to put where and what would make the most sense for the space um sat down with our graphics manager and talked through the layout even she was one who made
023some changes to it that i didn't even think about about oddly enough about supervision because she was originally we had the desks facing the hallway like the advisor's desks are across the hall and she's like i can't won't be able to see anybody and like monitor so turning them sideways for example to be able to actually see while she's working types of things so little things like that that i didn't think about they definitely contributed for sure right now when i visited you it seemed like you had a large majority a large population of seniors participating so you're going to have alan um so we have about 12 seniors right now we have about 23 in the program it's about half and half from this year to next year um and we have about 12
024coming in ish for next year and then the year after that's when we start ramping up so and then when we had that discussion your target was to try and move the program further into where you get earlier participation is that part of this next curriculum in 2023 or is that something that's going to happen later definitely for next year so those principles courses that i was talking about as part of that pathway will get the students in the pathway to legal manufacturing either as a freshman or a sophomore and our eagle of manufacturing as well the middle school is going to help feed students into that program in addition to those principles courses so that is all those principles courses are being implemented next year we have we have one this year or two
025we're adding the design course and i guess the last question i have is from the donor that you had is the donor donation enough to cover just the reconstruction or the construction that you have to do or is there funds left over to the requirement equipment or um currently the commitment is for construction um and getting the space up to what where we need it to be and then we're working on uh um other means for the equipment [Music] i don't have the numbers off the top of my head for the number of students going to see for right now um i i can't say the big advantage of that for students is that they lose i think it's at least a period a day for travel time back and forth so keeping them here
026allows them to take more classes not only hours but also other classes here as well that they don't lose out on um but i do not have numbers yeah we're currently in in figuring that out we do not have a number at the moment well thank you very much for that presentation thank you of our presentations [Music] why do you know that her mother and my son thank you [Music] there we go so to begin with i just want to thank the board for taking the time to hear about our presentation and um to you know hear about this project that the three of us have been working on for the past year so for those of you who don't know my name is marie fields and i'm a senior and i am the student
027coordinator for the brown county pop festival um taylor is our assistant coordinator um she is a freshman and then of course mrs billings is our staff coordinator so our project this year was called the brown honey pop festival and pop stands for pursuing our purpose so the pop festival is a part of the basil scholars program which misspellings and i were selected to participate in about a year ago the basil scholars program this is a year-long leadership program for high schools seniors and their partnered educators it's funded by the bezos family foundation and yes the bezos bezos is his parents 12 student educator teams are chosen from across the united states every year and one team of five students is chosen from the african leadership academy in johannesburg south africa and the purpose of the
028basil scholars program is to develop a community change project or a local ideas festival as they call it based on an identified community so when miss billings and i sat down kind of over the summer and they were brainstorming what we wanted our local ideas festivals to get out and we had so many different topics that we could have chosen from it it was very important to narrow it down to just one but i kind of related it back to my personal experiences growing up in rural indiana i've always had really really big dreams um as you can see here when i was in eighth grade i wanted to be a supreme court justice and that was a trip that um miss oliver and i went on for history today um so i've always had
029really big dreams i kind of found myself having little resources because of the community that i grew up in especially because i'm a first generation college student and i'm from a low income household and one thing that i also noticed throughout you know my high school experience is there's definitely a pipeline between our brown county graduates and low-wage local jobs right after high school with little opportunity for career advancement yeah so taking marie's personal experience um we kind of took that as a starting point and then um brought that to our students and our staff to see if there was a larger need there so our students for equity group that already existed held a workshop at one of their meetings where students kind of brainstormed based on that prompt that you see young people
030in brown county need and gave us some of their responses and then we also sent out a teacher and staff survey um to have some input from the perspective of the people who are here to support our students what they see our students needing in order to have um a successful you know post-secondary future so based on those two things we kind of identified that there there was a sense of apathy when thinking about future planning amongst our young people and so what did they need to overcome that and we came up with this list that our students kind of brought us to of empowerment opportunity motivation direction and hope and so all of that's kind of tying together into the larger concept of purpose but they're needing purpose so this project's vision statement was
031the brown county high school will be a will be a learning community where all students feel empowered to pursue current and future educational and career opportunities that align with their purpose and aspirations and then their mission our mission statement was to connect students with post-secondary opportunities through workshops and resources that align with their own passions and purpose so they have a broader variety of options to consider after their high school so um in our initial you know phases of the planning process we partnered first with our um building administration with mr austin and mr hutchins and our master teachers and academy leaders um to kind of tell them what our idea was and what we were thinking about um we also brought on mrs breitzman and the crc and our registrar just pruitt um as
032kind of our our like adult team support team to help us through that and we also had a magnificent um core team of about 11 underclassmen um there we are this is a cute little picture of us on the day of our festival um we met once a week and they really helped us with student engagement um facilitating our purpose sessions which we threw about in just a minute and set up slash teardown on the day of the festival as well as you know providing a wide and diverse range of students perspectives on the development of our festival yeah so to fund the festival the basis family foundation gives each educator and scholar pair seed money of a thousand dollars and that is funding that's renewable um annually for the life cycle of of your
033local ideas festival um and then we were fortunate enough to have some additional funding through uh our bcs high ability grant program thank you um and so the majority of our budget as you can see there was spent on supplies um for the festival marketing supplies actual supplies we needed for the day of the festival as well as shirts for our volunteers one of the other major costs was the cost of the purpose development pilot session we did with an organization called nxu um and then also right anytime you have a big event you have to feed people so there was also food involved for our presenters our volunteers um and our teachers that assisted us that day so essentially the pop festival was broken um into two parts so the first part was our
034purpose discovery and that took place throughout four weeks in the month of april and then the second part is our big college and career fair and empowerment workshops which took place um during school hours on april 28th so for purpose discovery um in collaboration with an organization that miss billings and i were connected to through the bezos program um nxu we wanted to provide our students um with a curriculum that really focuses on four different um you know key components of developing your purpose so your identity your strengths your interests and your passions and our hope is that by our students exploring these things they will have a bit more of self-reflection and direction and an idea of what they want to pursue um now and after high school so essentially um before we presented
035this curriculum to our students um on march 22nd we had like an initial purpose training session with our core team with our match store and our mentor features as well as some of our administrators with nxu via zoom and then we implemented that um that curriculum over the course of four weeks so our students met um in their cafeteria during srt um the freshmen met on mondays the sophomores my dog tuesdays et cetera et cetera on week week one um that was kind of our introduction to purpose and they also explored the concept of identities um week two we explored our interests and our passions week three we did a strength assessment survey and then week four um we developed every student developed a um a purpose statement which mrs billings will get to in
036a minute um and kind of our incentive that we've you know tried to get our students to recognize was that um you know taking the time to reflect on what they want to do after life is obviously really beneficial but also um the each srt for a grade that had the highest rate of um turn in for their purpose exercises um received sugar peak pregnancy on so a perfect statement just so you have an idea of what our amazing young people came up with as a part of this so it's something that ties together identity factors that matter to you um with your strengths your interests and passions and how you will use those things to meet a need in the world so these were just a few purpose statements taken from our students and
037you can see they they do all follow right we provide them with that template and that structure so for example that first one as a strong outgoing woman so there's there's the identity pieces she connects with my purpose in life is to use my ability to console and communicate with others combined with my love of helping people to be a paramedic right um yeah so we've got some very specific ones and then we have some broader ones too um our next one is helping others to coexist and talk and discuss peacefully we i love the third one as a motivator leader and athlete my purpose in life is to use my ability to communicate and be a leader combined with my love of sports psychology and family to create a better environment for the brown
038county athletic program so yeah so after they spent four weeks creating their purpose the college and career fair helps them connect their carpet it gave them the chance to connect their purpose to any like life things that will help them later in life and um during their lunch time there were 30 vocational schools colleges and employers set up including brown county high school alumnus evan razor jasmine enemies and empowerment workshops which they chose from 15 options that fall into three categories information finance and self-care and on your handout you can see a list of facilitators workshops and all the different exhibitors that we're actually watching through yeah can you go back to just one slide so to clarify they had 15 workshop choices they chose five for the day so each student had an individualized
039schedule of five work workshops of their choice and then also had an hour to explore the college and career fair so um after our festival we had about purpose statements turned in and we had about 368 students um attend the festival on april 28th so in general um we received some pretty positive on student feedback in terms of the college and career fair um uh we so we sent out this survey um like about a week after the um big festival and our students said they wish that there was a bit more representation of the college and career fair in terms of trades arts culinary schools health fields and volunteer organizations as well as private colleges and in terms of the workshops and everyone on the stage to really enjoy them but they wish that
040they could hear directly from college students and also have more art based skills represented in the workshops that we offered and the purpose development they wish the students wished it was more spread out over the course of the entire year rather than you know all at once uh you know in the month of april and they also wanted um more context as to why um living purpose-driven life was important and why um we were advocating for things that we were advocating for um in terms of our staff feedback again they wish that um our festival was earlier on in the year to avoid um ap prep conflicts and they wish that it was more spread out rather than over the course of about a month we had several staff members say that they wanted to
041be trained in the purpose development so that they could help their students directly and some staff members said that they wished our festival was more inclusive for our students with learning and mobility differences um in terms of our workshop facilitators um they're very impressed with the logistics of our festival and our communication several of them said that they wish they had something like this when they were in high school and they are very happy to engage with our students in future years yeah and so as far as sustainability goes as i mentioned earlier we have continued funding from the bezos family foundation should this festival continue um we also um are in the process as a district of well i know it's been submitted um our three grant the state uh department of education and
042so um and christy reitzman has written into that grant um some of the costs of the expanded purpose opportunity curriculum as well as um funds to train staff on that curriculum so that we can we can utilize that more effectively and then additionally in our second year we would also like to look at getting some corporate sponsors and private donors um to help fund expanding the festival and possibly creating some scholarships that are attached to the festival for students that attend the festival um and then we'll talk about students okay so for future grow okay so okay um for future growth we are really hoping to expand this program more and as for our purpose sessions we are it's really for the pending approval of the three grant and we're adopting like the purpose curriculum
043with nxu and we are hoping to in the future change six staff members to be proficient in their curriculum and support other like smaller classroom teachers and for our college and career first part of it we are a visitor and actually have 50 exhibitors and more volunteer organizations so that students can also participate in that um and then more representation in fields in the different fields as many states earlier and for student involvement we've already had a ton of students say that they would like to be in this next year and on that um survey we set out a lot of people have already signed up um we are very grateful you know for rock county school administration to give us the opportunity to um you know implement this festival it's something that is very
044near and dear to my heart has been a really great way to end my senior year i wish that i would have had the opportunity to do this my freshman year um and continue to do it all throughout high school miss gillings and i really like this quote and we think that it kind of encompasses our entire festival fdr states we cannot always build a future for our youth but we can build the view for our future and i'm really excited to see um what brown county does with the pop festival after i graduate thank you you're open to any questions very nice i don't have a question but i have a statement and i deeply appreciate the inclusive activity comment from the staff feedback with students being making sure i just want to tell
045you all that i am so incredibly proud of you um i am excited to see also what the future looks like and how this is going to grow into even bigger outcomes for our kids so thank you i think you can get a freshman you know that end of the spectrum a lot sooner than that really promotes a lot of other things along the chain as i think about that my days in the high school so i wish i had some exposure to certain things i wouldn't not change my mind what i ended up doing but i just think thank you so much well i like that you saw a community need and a school need because this is something that we have been missing for a long time and i i really like this
046event and i like to see your energy about it but it isn't like oh you know we have to do this it's like this is exciting this is what we ought to be doing and i have often you know i've always been pushing you guys can say this because i had to both in seventh grade but like always looking outside of brown county we have to not be in even outside of indiana we have to not always be like oh i can go to ivy tech tech's great place but we need to be expanding our horizons and getting kids to understand there's a lot of things out there that they can do and but if they're never exposed to it then they're not going to understand those opportunities and so how can we make that
047real for them and i think you've done a really great job of like putting all that together and saying you know i have a goal in life and this is how i achieve it i just want to add on to that too though i think a big part of this an intention of this is to help our students understand that they can live in purpose here and they can have an impact on their community here too so as much as as much as we want to open doors and all of those things we want them to realize some of those stories can lead to here i'm incredibly proud of the student team so like it's a treat to work with them [Music] ladies and gentle as you well know you don't have to stay for
048the rest of your weekend next we have discussion items and there are none next we have approval of public session units dated may do i have a motion second a second any discussion roll call carol yes amy yes vicky yes motion carries thank you and next is action needed items at the recommendation to approve the 2022-2023 elementary student handbook do you have a motion to approve the elementary student handbook for 22-23 any discussion carol yes amy yes vicky yes stephanie yes motion carries thank you thanks i have the recommendation to approve the modified lease agreement between brown county schools and human services incorporated to additionally include the leasing of room 118 a as office space with an increase in rent from 800 a month 900 a month beginning the 31st of may 2022 through the
04930th of may 2024. do you have a motion to approve the modified lease agreement between brown county school corporation and human services as presented i summoned any discussion this is um the lease agreement with head start going over to esc and um we just needed to add office space so i thought we approved that last month we did we needed to amend it to include an office space which changed the price per month okay and but the space was already there yes okay so we didn't have to reconfigure that any other discussion we'll call carol yes amy yes yes stephanie yes uh motion carries thank you thanks i have the recommendation of approval of a non-standard course for human anatomy at brown county middle school do you have a motion to approve the non-standard course
050for human anatomy at the middle school any discussion why are we having a non-standard course this so there are um there's a waiver by the doe that we have to have they've changed the law that we have to have now board approved for us to be able to teach human anatomy at the middle school level so in order for us to be able to upload the waiver to the doe for three year we have to have it board approved yeah okay and is that going to be is that part of project leave the way with mr roush or is no no it's just a separate science class because we just really have don't have a lot of science electives so it would be just an elective yes okay all right any other discussions will call
