002first Speaker this evening is Muki lungren laav and you have three minutes just in case you didn't know that hi I'm mooki I'm a sophomore in IHS and like some others in my grade I really want to take physics C next year in case you don't already know physics use a calculus-based physics class and the hardest physics class that IHS offers it provides a valuable experience for stem oriented students and is especially valuable of taking junior year physics has many benefits there are physics competitions you can take building off of the material of the first semester of the class which can go on college applications if you take them Junior year there's selective summer programs such as SSP and RSI that highly encourage students to have taken physics C to be competitive it's just an
003overall exciting and meaningful class that provides real value to Juniors and seniors who take it there are students like me who will meet the qualifications to take the class junior year and have the motivation and ambition to thrive in physics C opportunities need to be opened up to us so that our academic growth can occur I know that the school has limited resources but allocating enough of those resources to physics C so that all interested Juniors and seniors can take the class is very important there's a big impact to be made if our learning is invested in and encouraged thank you our next public comment person is an Johnson oh who's not here she's in person okay okay that's it for public comment okay open up for board responses yeah um never having e having
004ever taken physics even I'm astounded at the thought that there's something Beyond physics but having said that I'll be happy to look into it a bit and see how many people have been closed out and what our opportunities are for making it open to more people um and I imagine the rest of the board is in agreement with me about learning how many people have been shut out and all of that and uh thanks for coming to talk to us and thanks for your email you sent us an email earlier too didn't you if not someone else did okay thanks for coming tonight okay um and you said she would really like the class what did you say it's a good class and what did you say after that no just now I thought you
005responded taken PR so we'll all be able to take class next year if we're let and there's a lot of she really want okay and luky is this your first time coming to the board well thank you very much it's really appreciated because sometimes I know that students may feel somewhat fearful approaching the board and all and we are approachable so thank you very much and and and especially for speaking on behalf of um your classmates with regard to this and for yourself too so thank you for advocating for yourself I'll just chime in to also say thank you very much and also I I envy you because if I could have spoken with such Joy about physics many years ago I think I would be a very in a very different place in my
006life so that's very exciting and I do I do hope that there is an opportunity I don't know how appropriate this is right now I know that we can definitely look into it more but is it possible to get like a 30 second like this is this is a new very new for me like is there any way to know just like what the the current status is yeah we're in the process of uh getting course requests and at this time of year this is typical um with with the high school folks not being able to promise where we will place folks for next year so that's where we are right now um Miss grow may have some additional information but it's not it's not unique for us to say to students um at this
007time of year that um if there's space we will but it's rare that I've heard of a student being shut out completely when we finalize a schedule okay thank you yes thanks I'll also uh Echo that Muki welcome thanks for coming thanks for talking um yeah we had gotten another email from a student and we have an email chain I was just kind of looking back over my email um for for this was going to be something that we're going to follow up on and we should be able to give some guidance after we speak especially with Mary Grover who's uh looped in on the email okay thank you um so we can move on now to item agenda item 4.3 that's going to be checking in with our student rips and now I'm not
008remembering who went first last time but I think it was I okay that's what I thought okay sure um so this Thursday March 13th middle school students will be dismissed at 11:45 um in the afternoon will be dedicated as a literary afternoon for all high school students and attendance uh Juniors Juniors and um some seniors um will be presenting their peats um including to miss earwood and some other community members teachers staff and two officers from the New York Consortium of essential schools which ACS is a member of on the on that note uh the following Friday 13 staff members will travel to the school without walls in Rochester the only other Upstate School in the Consortium um on this visit staff will observe classes conduct a moderation study with other staff who are visiting
009review the new science peat rubric and take a look at inquiry based learning and portfolio based assignments um other news following the success of hadestown the ACs theater department will be hosting one act plays performed by students these are still in their beginning stages of initial visioning and rehears souls and finally for me um in other news on the creative front many seniors have made some Headway in their senior projects which is a graduation requirement they don't have to be academically related um some of these projects you know they span from podcasting and woodworking to sustainability based projects and Etc hi everyone nice to see you um I'll start by just highlighting that our washer and dryer is installed in our school which is awesome um we've been the only School in a district in
010the district without one um and it's just going to be a huge help to everyone to our custodian um who can now wash things on site which is a ton more convenient than shipping them off other places um and it's just a wonderful resource for our broader Community for anyone who might not have access to a washer and dryer um and just in different situations that arise um and I'm especially excited about this as a member of the community closet family group um this is super exciting and just means that our process of setting up can be much more efficient um trips assignments will be announced at by the end of the week um and we're revving up to move into more rigorous fundraising and planning efforts over the next couple months before our um
011miday trips week um and finally just a shout out to our library they've been doing some really awesome stuff um our Librarians created a March Madness bracket um not for basketball which I've been loving too but um a book competition where students vote for their favorites um and so we will have a championship winner to share with you next time we're here hopefully um and they've had just some wonderful displays for um black history month and women's history month so it's been great to be turned on to some new um authors and yeah just learn more thank you um hi everyone nice to see you again uh to start spring Sports at IHS the tryouts begin next week uh next this weekend the code red robotics team will be headed to the fingerlakes regional competition
012at RIT this is a three-day long competition from March 12th to March 15th where 54 robotics teams from all around the fingerlakes will be able to compete for VAR Awards and eligibility to compete at the national competition um and then the following weekend Cod red will be headed to another competition another Regional called called the New York Tech Valley Regional from March 26 to 29th and at this event 60 teams will compete for eligibility to the National national competition yeah and I I heard the robot is really good this year so I'm excited um I first want to say that I'm in very much support of encouraging more students to take physics c um which was mentioned in public comment um and giving everyone who meets the prerequisits and equal opportunity to get into it
013um I'm taking it right now and it's like one of the hardest classes I took but it is very rewarding and I also had issues being placed in the class as a rising Junior um so it's nice to see someone Brave and step up um because I know other students are facing similar issues um and some updates next week March 17th to 21st is social justice week and so there's going to be like presentations panels and events throughout the week in this very room so a lot of teachers usually sign up their classes to come in um to attend different presentations by the community members as well as IHS students and staff and um students have just been made aware of the changes to Google services today and so this includes not being able to
014access the YouTube website like Google Maps Google translate all those extension Google services and so the board reps are trying to help get the word across to the students so they aren't completely startled by this and we'll try to observe what the student response to this is when it is implemented on March 21st um and so we'll let you know we we'll let you guys know how it's going during the next meeting hey everybody so the choir theme concert is this Thursday March 13th in cul auditorium at 700 p.m. there's going to be a Showcase of great school a great spirit in school and we hope to get as many people as we can in the house the tler editorial board recently had an interest meeting today for uh the editorial board applications to join

018believe and we had two teams do very well I think it's the the 639 f team placed 26 in our state and the 639m team um won the judges award so again uh examples of Excellence uh not only at our high school but at our Middle School as well so thank you other items are The icfd Insider will be going out this week so look for that to fall into your inboxes where it highlights um our efforts around Excellence uh in our school district um as well as some major announcements and I too am looking forward to social justice week and um as I learned this last week from a lot of my colleagues a lot of folks pay attention to our social justice week and as a reminder to everyone um how excited we
019are that what we do during that week and all weeks is align to New York state standards um I've read the academic standards in New York state and they require us to have young people uh identify problems and then suggest Solutions uh to solve said problems and those problems uh range um oftentimes they are around classism sexism ableism and racism and our social justice week is aligned with that particular standard where our young people are solving those very complex problems with no obvious solution so I'm excited for it and as a reminder for the folks I've learned who follow our meetings and watch what the work we do here is well done and is connected to what we are required to teach and it's aligned to our culturally responsive and sustaining framework from New York
020State and it's something that we're very proud of again thank you young people and thank you for the opportunity to share out thank you so much we are going to move on to item 11 which is our school district business tonight we only have one item on our agenda um or one additional item on the agenda I should say which is going to be a start of the or continuation of the 2025 2026 budget all right we're gonna invite Dr lisy up to uh help us frame some things and walk us through some things and I will uh begin with um there are a couple of questions we have for the board and we hope to have some guidance before the end of the evening um the next board meeting we anticipate bringing the formal
021funding request the that for that funding request and that present presentation that I do annually where we present the budget that we're putting in front of you to deliberate over and hopefully approve at some point and tonight's that last conversation or the development session before we go in to fine tun or sharpening the pencil for the folks who still use pencils um and the question we want you to to answer tonight um one we're we're proposing a bit of a rollover budget if we can if you're familiar with that term we want to take what we're doing this year and continue doing it next year um no major additions and no we're not proposing any major reductions um to do that we will need to uh address the tax levy we're going to be posing
022a number uh to the tax a tax levy increase that we want to get some feedback on and if uh you are okay or amable to what we're recommending as far as the tax levy increase we will go back and finish putting the budget together based on those parameters but quick question big questions tonight do we continue to do what doing this year or do you look for us to add or reduce and two we need some guidance on the overall tax levy limit because that will go far in determining how we finalize this funding request uh M Dr leis you want to add a few things and put some additional information in front of my board oh sure do that I think we're just waiting for the presentation yeah I was trying to drag
023that out as long as I could and that's great had no more words with waiting ju just a quick room thank you Dr and good even good evening everyone uh just a quick reminder so at the last board meeting we presented our our projected revenues and so we're continuing that process so this evening uh with the promise that this evening we would at least share our preliminary expenses our preliminary budget for 25 26 and show a comparative of where we are and uh and what that looks like uh so we'll we'll go through that with you quick sir so the first slide here is a bit daunting so just to to share with you what this really means this is just a a high Lev way of looking at our three-part budget and a comparison
024between the current year we're in and the proposed budget for 2526 and it kind of showed you shows you the different areas of where where the uh where the changes may have occurred is there any way to see the the very bottom there because that the very bottom is what we're gonna we're going to focus on here at least in initially next mon yeah she not to do that okay she this is a slide show can't do that that's all right so I'll share this that's okay no you're fine you're fine so what I'll share with you is let let's the very first thing I'll I'll share is the 2425 budget uh and that currently is 163 little over 163 million 163 m298 and what we're proposing is a 4.17% change for 2526 and that's
025shown in here and the total is 169 so 169,170 , 365 so again that's a 4.17% change and so again it's important to show this is a three-part budget let me just explain quickly what that means um because a lot of times there's misunderstanding at least regarding one part of that last time I tried to click with my computer now I'm using the clicker and it's not working so there we go excellent thank you appreciate that so if we show very quickly it's the three-part budget's broken up into three sections the administrative component the capital component and the program component very simply oftentimes the administrative component is misconstrued as administrative salaries and that's not the case in fact one of the largest parts of the administrative component is our Bose's cost they're part of our
026Bose's costs so there's a lot built into that um it does include administrative salaries salaries but there are there's a lot more involved in that as well and again if you look at the previous slide it'll break that down a little bit for folks to kind of take a look and see what's in the ministrative component um our Capital component that includes our debt payments our leasing expenses our school bus purchases and some of those uh those costs and the last ones obviously our large sets are instructional costs and that kind of covers the whole gamut of those um and again I'll go back real quick just to give folks a look so this isn't quite as daunting if you break it up into those three and it looks you can see how it's compared
027from one year to the next now I'll just go to the the next slide here and wanted folks to see the change here year to year and what that looks like for that three-part budget so first the program budget you can see there's a slight increase there and those are our overall instructional costs and our Capital costs uh again a slight increase that's how we take care of the district the grounds the buildings and so on and so forth uh and of course our administrative salary administrative component is actually gone down a bit uh from 11.03 to 10.07 again the year-to-year increase just to remind folks that we're proposing at least at this point with the preliminary figures that we've put together together is 4.17% and what does that look like so just going through
028this our again our anticipated Revenue that we discussed at the last meeting what we project at this point is 164 a little over 164 million 1647 and that's at a flat tax lby that's without any change and the proposed expenditures are 69.8 million so that leaves us with a shortfall of about 5.1 million that again at a flat tax levy and what I've done is I break broken this down uh with various degrees of tax levy at 1% to the tax cap that was calculated at 3.76 so you can see what that would look like uh in increased Revenue at each level the total revenue and the shortfall so at the tax cap we're still looking at a shortfall of a little over $900,000 but we think that we can work through that um as
029we continue to refine the budget that says uh thank you for your present I hope you heard the questions we still have for you in that presentation and we tried as best we could to simplify what is a very complex process thoughts questions reactions suggesting for us and I'll remind the folks while you thinking at home um this presentation and these questions are coming uh off of almost a year of planning and the budget development process started in the summer and we've been having we've been engaged in these conversations since our last budget vote so this is not new we've been building this for a while oh when you say the so the tax cap is 3.76% and then you just presented some numbers and you said that we have a shortfall of almost a
030million so and you think you can work through that million dollars so that we can keep it at the tax cap at 3.76 how will that happen yeah that's a great question we're gonna have to look uh some of again this is a preliminary budget without looking at potential uh reductions in areas so this is kind of our first run so there there's always room were there any surprises with um Governor's budget for fiscal year 2026 that will impact us I think we we were pleasantly surprised with state aid increasing think talked about that a little bit there's was a significant increase at least in Foundation Aid um that was mitigated a bit by our building Aid being reduced but we'll take the win and we'll take an overall increase in Aid that's one of
031the few times um over the last 15 20 years that we've had an increase we've had significant decreases that we've had to account for but this is from my perspective a one-time um increase right not something we can plan for every year for sure and I think we're still waiting for the finals in April where we might see an increase there hopefully help with that shortfall I mean one over one other um initial reaction that I would have is um just as one board member I'm glad that the proposal is within the tax cap that's something that I would want to see for this year personally um so that seems like a good start to me thank you for sharing and we think we heard that during the development process to this point we heard
032from the board to try to work towards staying under the tax cap for the forceable future Dr BL thank you um so man I just uh really just to put a couple comments uh on the record um although this is a continuation of the budget we had last year I just want to kind of remind people the budget last year had quite a few changes I don't know if you want to you know the cut in administration and I don't mean both SE part of administration but the cut in Administration staff what was that it was like we cut uh administrative cost by 25% that's right that's the figure I remember so just kind of remind the public that uh what we're doing is carrying forward a budget that made a a a lot of
033changes last year in response to the budgeting process in the budget vote so you those those changes uh particularly reductions in administrative costs remain in place and we're moving forward with those reductions in place yeah correct so that that's important um the second comment I would add just from the perspective of the finance committee is that you know there's there's short run and and there's long run and we heard a lot and clear last year the concerns public had uh about the um the tax levy and we responded to that again we're caring for those but the longer term response to some of the concerns uh is also an issue and so we have put forth an RFP to look at uh future enrollment patterns demographics uh we've got some responses back just La last
034week to those and we're evaluating them and so the the the process of long-term seeking of a efficiencies uh is ongoing and that is independent of this thank you I did have two quick questions if that's okay I was just curious um earlier it said that administrative costs are going to decrease next year I was just wondering what accounts for that decrease a couple of things F administrators um and US Supply codes m uh contracts all the things that go into the line we've been looking at and making reductions over the last year and say there was a shortfall of say I don't anywhere between 933 th000 and about almost 4 million um if that couldn't be balanced in the budget somehow would that shortfall put us in debt for next year how exactly does
035that work no we'd have to look at either reductions or using fund balance to support that [Music] thanks for your questions does the budget that you've proposed here in any way um are are is there any way that it isn't a rollover budget is there are there programs that were cut last year that have been brought back are there planned cuts that that we can't see here at first glance that that you can share with us and um and again these are the parameters which we wish to work from and we are still finalizing so we as far as additions or Restorations we don't anticipate much of that from where we were last summer um and we have not included any additions at this point if there are requests tonight would be the night if
036the board has some suggestions um when working with our budget developers our principles and our directors there are no um requests for additions and they are working hard to figure out how we work with the things that uh they know they won't be coming back so again if if there are some suggestions for us to restore some things now would be the time to talk through it no I I um I too am pleased to see us coming in at the tax cap and uh thanks for your hard work pleasure get us there other things we're going to be monitoring our investment strategy which in the past has been favorable for us um that allow for us to make up that kind of a difference of 900,000 like every year we at this point we
037have a bit of a gap we to make up and we wait for the final Governor runs which typically come in a little higher than the conservative estimates up front we fortunately have been able to benefit from a strong investment strategy to make up some of that and we've been able to rely on fund balances and all of these things are anticipating um or are based on our assumptions with regards to our collective bargaining agreements which we've settled all but one and we have said very publicly now where we hope to have those come in any adjustments from what we said publicly as far as the parameters which we are looking to settle our agreements with would need to be adjusted in what we're doing here too so just to remind folks this is based
038on a Year's worth of work and a lot of different uh parameters that go into I tried to make that case on the radio this morning but I only had seven minutes so folks have additional questions about how all of these revenue streams work and how the expenditures work please call Andor tune in as we hope to bring more information next next week two weeks oh let me the question on the table this is under the tax cap can we assume that we can build a budget based on 3.76% increase or is there another number that the board wishes for us to entertain I don't think I heard an explicit number there so just going to repeat we are always in our long-term planning looking at ways to cut expenses and be more efficient said
039we have uh ongoing studies on that uh but in the short run uh if we're going to continue to carry on uh our program with the cuts both in administration and also program offerings that we put in place last year um my personal view would be that the tax cap is a a reasonable way Way Forward uh what I heard the public say last year was that the tax cap was what they were comfortable with I believe that remains the public sentiment you know we'll certainly listen to folks when they come in but uh I I personally have not heard any public feedback that suggests that we should move forward at the tax cap thank you I'm so sorry go ahead quick question um so does this mean that people in ethica are going to
040get a raise in their taxes in order to make up for the shortfall um and if so how much like how much more would it we will get tighter on that um that'll we have to do a lot um to figure that out if we're we will be proposing a 3.7% levy increase now that the rate is what would go into one's tax going up and we need to work with the assessor to see the overall assess value of property so there's some other things we would have to we've in the past we've had a levy we proposed a levy increase and we've had taxes go down because the rate didn't change so that's another conversation and we'll bring the most recent information to the next meeting when we propose some things what we anticipate
041may be an increase to the average bill in our community okay thank you that is a great question though awesome question and I think we need to remind our um our listeners too in the community that we did hear the assessments would not be changed right that's a critical factor and that the tax base may go up yeah that's another critical factor which will have implications on that so that's a really great question yeah I again it's all preliminary but I I think the the good message we can give to taxpayers based on what Dr ly just said with the assessment office coming in and the tax bases that probably uh their taxes will remain similar to what they were last year so I would suspect that that the average uh change in most homeowners
042tax bill would be a bit less than tax cap because of the new growth uh but I don't think we have full numbers on that right we don't know that yet but if that's the case and it does go up 1% then that would be the case corre um is there any chance that the language program like with all the classes being combined like that'll come back to as it was another great question well we propose the final budget we will speak to that um we're still working with administrators um much of that based on class size and how we so if I can ask for some additional time to come back with that very specific question um and I'm looking at our board members if that's something you want to make sure we entertain
043as we put together this final proposal so I guess it's a both and y'all would like for us to entertain what something like that could look like and we would need some time to figure out what that would look like before we bring it back and I think I owe it to folks other other things because that's one program that we heard from people about but there I know I heard from a lot of folks about a lot of other programs so if we end this conversation about what programs to restore I'm looking to my our board how you wish for me to approach that right I I was going to say at this stage um we can do an evaluation of all the programs that were impacted last year and what it would look
044like going forward but we it wouldn't benefit us to take one specific program because there are host of people who are not here today that would definitely rally for their specific programs to be in the budget and knowing that we're trying to um continue with some of the priorities that we have as a district too I mean maybe without any regard to specific programs but just as a general philosophy last year we made some hard cuts and you know those cuts I don't think are going to come back as a general approach though for programs that remain I think we'd like to operate them the highest quality possible so I I guess a general approach this is just me speaking what we cut is gone and probably not going to come back what remains we
045want to continue to offer at the highest quality I think that's just my general approach and and I'll remind folks um it wasn't a specific program cut it was a a class siiz threshold and we decided that we would not run a course that didn't have at least 15 students in it so the reduction or the elimination or us not offering courses was how whatever language you want to use was because of a threshold that we put in place now any adjustments to that threshold brings in the conversation about equity and how will we pick one over the other so we have a formula and an adjustment to that formula can have some caveat um but I'm not hearing youall want us to go forward with caveats to a formula Claire I hope you understood
046that I I'm just reminding you it wasn't we targeted your program it was about what we did because there's Elementary classrooms that are lar this year too and we put some class size minimums in place um and maximums in place that we've been using and since the discussion started as this is a roll over budget if we're looking at it that way we should seriously consider continuing on and as Garrick had said looking to see how we can excel in the different areas that we're in at the moment go for Emily I I sorry I'm trying to like on spot trying to figure out what what I want to ask you um I guess yes roll over and maybe not being able to bring things back but hopeful also that um considerations are being given
047to the um uh the quality and impact of the programs that have remained and I guess I would love to hear a little bit about like I know that you guys are constantly kind of evaluating and looking at that data but when when does that like kind of looking at kind of everything from class sizes to individual programs and kind of making an assessment of like wow we actually this wasn't going well and maybe we shouldn't do it anymore and we could save money there or vice versa I would say it's ongoing and it's an addition to or at the same time as the budget conversation um and to your credit in Dr cran wise you've been having those conversations in curriculum committee um the quality of a individual academic program is a curriculum conversation
048and we have other venues to do that again this is around parameters around $169 million and it's kind of hard to par down into a fraction of an FTE um we're offering academic programs based on some parameters that we set forth last year and if we want to provide some caveats for an individual program that's just a different conversation and a request but we just know what that lifting up that hood may bring to the community but the quality of our program is something we're always looking at and and we can engage in that conversation at at any point thanks for the question you came up with that one really well quick got on the spot we good y'all we got we have the questions answered that we needed answer unless there are some other
049questions or requests from y'all and we look forward to presenting some final approaches at our next meeting oh I I guess I nothing to ask you all but um just to to let folks know in general that um we are all in the exact team as well as the board like looking forward to engaging the community in these conversations we've had a number of ptas reach out to us um requesting that we uh come visit their specific communities and schools to be able to talk about this um more in depth or to ask question or answer questions that are more specific to their concerns and so um also um I know I'm I'm sure that the district is going to be you know holding events and opportunities to talk about it but if there are
050folks um in specific schools that you would want to engage this group in those conversations um that's something that we're all eager and willing to do and I encourage you to reach out and as I always enjoy bringing people back to our we website which has the budget timeline for the rest of this um year fiscal schol year so we have detail because our finance committee meets next week Tuesday as well as at um our upcoming voed board meetings that we would have this continued discussion and also feeling free to use let's talk and maybe just like one one plug about about let's talk I think I mean it's it has I mean it can be used in different ways I mean if you want to communicate information you can fill out a form we'll
