All right, that's the new law that is going into effect. So, I just printed that off, but that's in this stack of policies from Viola that we need to have the first reading of here. Uh we'll have to table that, and then in the
003June meeting we'll have to approve the policies as as they are. The cell phone policy basically is is this. It will require students, they can have them here, but if they're in the building, they have to be turned off and out of sight. Uh that's going to go over well. They cannot They cannot have any uh smartwatches, uh any type of personal communication devices. Can't have any of that. And we had >> going to enforce the policy? >> a pretty You just can't have them on. You just tell them to take them off? They can't have them. I mean I mean I I I We had a really hard time this year with We We did not We did not I mean we had a couple instances where we you know, we phones were having
004to be turned in at the office. Uh We didn't get to the second level where parents had to come and get them. I didn't We didn't have any of that. Kids had to find us and bring them up to the office and get I just said put it in my drawer and come back and get it. And I don't even touch [clears throat] them. I said just Stick it in there. Yeah, put it in there. I don't touch your phone. I don't want to touch it. Uh The reason Now, we had the choice to just not let them have them here at all. But I didn't do that because sporting events we leave right after school. Sometimes we have to leave before school and I I want the kids to be able to have their
005devices traveling. So, um so they're allowed to have them, but when they're here they have to be powered off and put away outside. But they can still have a smart watch on. Cannot. How do they connect to it? Cannot. That's crazy. Smart watches are smart glasses and not considered PCDs unless connected to a cell phone. Correct. Yes. It looks like their phone's shut off, they're watching the work anyway. >> Yeah, I mean that's I mean that's that's the cut out. So, If their phone's off, their watch won't work. And they won't be able to read the time so they won't be able to get your updates on it. Yes. I didn't know that it was student learning reading time. Yeah. If it's not your teaching time. I think it can because it's still hip to
006my phone. All right, we're good on on all that? All right. This is our graduation info. Uh 24 total graduates. That includes five uh from the class of 2027, which are early graduates. Uh have four more academic honors. Uh two students completed uh the Indiana College Core 40 from Ivy Tech.

We've got 15 scholarships totaling 20,000. And this group has 226 college earned credits, uh which equates to about 11,000. So Uh and then three National Honor Society members. And I got 113,000. Well, it should be 113,822. Three anti-bias Yeah. I messed my list up. You got the comma in the wrong spot. It's

I just found out about it about before being started with Adam Wallace that that for the gym did it all up. And it's locked in there. Probably at no charge. >> Yes. Yeah. So I'd
009like to acknowledge him for doing that. Oh, yeah. It really helped him do that and stuff. We really appreciate that. You want to say something? You hear the balls? Yeah. Blue or purple purple balls is it? And maybe it's company. I think that I think I've heard of them. Why is it that you got to rock and roll all night and day? Yeah. Yeah. And looks looks looks really really good. >> with the school in any way? No. No, he called me Monday and asked if he could do it. He didn't want to get anybody in any trouble or or anything and said everything was taken care of. Uh I went over and talked to him Monday. Uh that's probably It was right around lunchtime. It was right after lunch duty uh with the middle
010schoolers and uh he said he at the time thought he had rock coming that was being donated and I got back out there Tuesday and it was just all the rock and everything was already put in. He said he's looking for some uh some planter boxes planter barrels or boxes or something. >> Put out there that he can plant stuff in. And then my daughter Bria had painted the bulldogs that were out there and I'll get those down tomorrow. Get those back in front of the gym. I'd like to acknowledge what you're doing and what you've done and I'm doing that too. And I don't know if some of the board Julie knows a little bit about this but some of us in the Bennett family James two James sisters anyway we're going to plan
011to get the Bennett center sign Okay. And so we're working on getting somebody that does sign work to do it or do it ourselves. Anyway I've been over there a couple of times and looked at it. It's in pretty sad shape. It's been up there 20 years now. Some of Some of us in the family weren't real happy when we were going to step the finger and people saw that and we'd like to get those replaced with something like uh school supply uh things like crayons Right. pencils Something like that. Sweet things like that. Do away with those little people that The lettering would be done like this. We're not sure if I've gone over there and looked at it. To see how if those panels could come out and it would be a job
012to get those panels out because they're they're painted and there are screws that hold them metal ones or if it was metal water screws that were painted so you probably have to remove them. Do you know if the building was ever divided? Was there electric to that? For some reason it looked like there would be. They What is it? I cannot remember. Just the way it looks. It looks like it would have light bulbs on it. It would be under there. It would be underground in the jam part of the building. I bet they did too. I can't remember if there was if that sign was lit or if there were spotlights on it. For some reason I remember it being lit but I don't know if it was. Wait anyway. Don't worry about it.
013The person that Angela was looking at didn't do it. Was there electric to it? I don't know. I'm asking you. Do you know if you know somebody that worked with the utility or the electrical outlet that were on the pole there for the vendors or were those live all the time or could you tell if they had to turn on the lights? Typically to the right. He was the one that was working on that electrical outlet that was there. Several of those. I want to see what they were doing too. one more Anything else? Got German. I'll make a motion to adjourn now. I'll second it. All in favor? Aye. Aye.
