0012025 GSA board of education meeting to order at 6:30 p.m. Mr. Shinkle, can you please call the role? >> Mr. West, >> yes. >> Mrs. Wy >> here. >> Mrs. Peproki, >> here. >> Mr. Raer, >> here. Mrs. Gray >> here. Do I have a motion to approve tonight's agenda? >> So move. >> Second. >> Let's make a motion. Bill second. Any discussion? >> Mr. Shinkle, can you please call the role? >> Mr. West. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Clerky? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Paproy? >> Yes. >> Mr. Rare? >> Yes. >> Mrs. Gray? >> Yes. >> Thank you. Tonight, I'd like to invite everyone to join me in a brief moment of silence. As we sit here moments before a new school year, let us think about and take time to reflect on the hopes
002that are ahead of us, the challenges we may face, and the commitment we share to support our students, educators, and families of our district. Thank you. Please stand and join Superintendent Brian Bailey as he leads us in the pledge of allegiance. >> I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Mr. Bailey, you welcome Mark Slaggel to share technology and communication updates. >> Wonderful. Thank you guys for having me. >> I'm afraid I will not be as entertaining as the students we usually have at this part, but I'll do my best. This has been a really interesting summer and a really fun summer for a couple reasons, but the big one is that
003a lot of times the direction we have to go in the summer is dictated to us by need, right? because we need more computers or something's broken or we have to expand the Wi-Fi, etc. And this has been a summer where in addition to taking care of all of those things, we've gotten to put some emphasis on our teachers in our classrooms and trying to find ways to be sure that they are doing what what they do best, which is of course connecting with students, building relationship, and then delivering instruction. And so what I'm going to show you tonight is a few of the things that we are implementing for this coming school year that we're really helping help them do that. Taking one step back, a big thing that we did last year was
004we had some conversations about how do we know what teachers need? How do we train teachers? How are we making sure that the things that we invest in as a school district are getting used in our classrooms, getting used properly, getting used appropriately so that we can be sure that we one are of course educating our students to the very best of our ability, but then two also making appropriate use of the resources that we are spending our money on. And so we did some research and what we did was we created a team of teachers from across the district that is called the technology explorers team. They are teachers from the different school buildings. We did our best to get somebody from each grade level andor content area in every building. and they spent
005the summer with me on Google Classroom talking about our initiatives that are coming up, telling me what the buildings need, telling me what their classrooms need, and then helping us choose technologies, platforms, services to fit their needs. Then we built the training that we're going to deliver to all of our staff members on Monday. So, it's been a really productive summer. I think what we have is really good. I'm going to show you some things right now, starting with sec. >> All of our teachers have an AV station in their classroom. They're not 85 in like this, but they are 65 in. They're really nice. They're about the size of what you guys see back here. All of them have a computer attached to the back. They all have a keyboard and a mouse that
006they can use. And that's been true for some time. What we added this year was two things. The first thing that we added is a really high resolution document camera that also can be detached and then used in any way you want. It automatically refocuses. It is very very high resolution. And so that's hard. Whether you're a science teacher who wants to really zoom in on something and see it at really high res or if you need to host a meeting, anything you need to do, these are a really great improvement from where we were this time last year. I think we're really going to make really good gains with these guys. Excuse me. >> Oh my gosh. Yeah, I know. I was just thinking about that crank thing and the thing. Oh my god.
007The next thing that we added, >> of course, it powered itself off. Give me one second. There we go. You guys see this? This is a tablet from a company called Wacom. If you're an artist or a digital artist, you know that name. They have for years been making the tablets that professional artists use when they're making Pixar movies, Disney movies, comic books, all that stuff. They released this this last year and it is specifically for education. And what you'll find that it does is it gives the teacher the ability to move throughout the room. They now have a stylus in their hand. You can see that the cursor is following me wherever I am here on the screen, right? And so if I just want to use it to navigate around the Chrome box,
008I can absolutely do that. But I can also now annotate on my screen from anywhere that I am. Most of our buildings do not have touchcreens in the classrooms and that has been a request year after year from our people. This is a way we can deliver it with our current hardware right now. It doesn't cost us the money that it would cost us of course to replace those and they are really really powerful. You can see how responsive they are. There's a lot of use cases for these. This is just a whiteboard of course, but I can also if I'm giving a presentation, I can come in here and turn on my pen. And now I can write right on top of my Google Slides for whatever it is that I'm teaching. If I'm
009out on the internet, >> on any website that I happen to be on, I can instantly annotate on top of anything that's on my computer screen at any time. This is going to be a huge gain for our teachers. I'm really excited to roll this out for them. The mobility it gives them and the ability to teach right on top of anything, I think is going to be really, really powerful. So each teacher or each classroom come has that >> every single one of our classrooms where we have a panel also has one of these also has the new document camera ready to go. Yep. >> Great. >> The other big big thing that we're showing this year is AI. So AI is a really complicated topic. It's fast moving. Every day it seems like
010it does something new and it feels or at least has felt a bit like the wild west in terms of what is the appropriate way to use AI? What is the safe way to use AI? And as we looked at it, there's really two of our we have two concerns and two goals. I think concerns were of course privacy and appropriate use for our students. Our goals were to give teachers a safe, private way that they could use AI to reclaim their time. The job of teaching, as we're told constantly, is of course build relationships, instruct, right? create great classroom environments, teach our students what they need to know. The job though takes quite a lot of time of going and gathering materials, of note-taking, of of doing meeting agendas, of all these things that
011AI can do a really excellent job of helping us do so that we can put them back onto the task of doing what they're great at, teaching our students. So there are two things I would say on this topic. One, privacy. We cannot be in a position where we are giving AI access to information that is for our families and our students unless we are certain that the AI that we're using is one that we have the data privacy agreement with that is legally obligated to never share that. So that's what we did. We invested in Google as a platform with Gemini and then a platform called Magic School that I'll show you in a minute. We have data privacy agreements with both of those people that they will never use our data to train
012their models. They will never excuse me, they will never sell our data and they are completely legally within you guys have heard of Senate Bill 29. They are legally in compliance with Senate Bill 29 in a way that makes it safe for us to use this in our classrooms. So what we did was we know that what AI is best at is helping you save time by automating tasks, gathering resources that you can't gather yourselves, etc. We surveyed our entire staff and we said, "You tell us about the things that are taking the most of your time from every single one of them just about responded to the email. We compiled those survey results and we shipped them off to Magic School and we said, "Hey guys, you show us what we can train our
013teachers on so that we have really impactful training when we come back to school in the fall." That's what we did. They told us that our biggest time consuming tasks are of course creating instructional materials, differentiating instruction, finding and adapting your resources, writing reports or documentation. All things that AI is excellent at. We shipped that off to magic school and they said, "Okay, go these are the very best tools for solving that problem." And that's what we are going to show our teachers on Monday. So, we'll just try one. This is what they call a worksheet generator. If you've ever used AI, you probably expect it to look like this. >> A white screen with a box. And now you have to know how to tell it what to do. That's a big ask. >>
014Yeah. >> For teachers, right? For students, etc. What Magic School does is it breaks this down into a menu of items that teachers use all the time. So, we have vocabulary list generator, email families, IEP generator, etc. and it walks the teacher through the process of creating by asking them the questions. So in this worksheet generator, it wants to know what grade level are we working at? We'll say grade six. The one filled in here is what is the process of mitosis. You can put anything you want in here. You can even add a file >> worksheet. What's that? >> We're not going to be given to us. >> You're gonna be graded. Absolutely. And then we just say generate and then magic school does the work of finding the resources building it etc. So
015now we have our introduction our multiple choice questions our open-ended questions our answer key and if you're our teacher what you do is you generate this and then you go back and you read it for accuracy. You read it for differentiation. You make sure that you're meeting the needs of the students who are in your seats on that day. And then when you're ready, you push the share button and it sends out to Google Classroom and your quiz is made. So that process that would take hours before, right, you're getting done in a much more efficient way. Let you get back to teaching. >> I see it also has a resource library. So you can do a check on the resources and that they're appropriate for >> Absolutely. Yep. You can even the other great
016thing that Magic School does is there's a studentf facing side of it. And what that lets our teachers do is decide when and how students are going to use AI. They get to come in here and they say on this day we are going to allow you to use these tools only. They can give them custom instructions. If you're learning physics that day, I can build a chatbot that's Albert Einstein, right? and say, "Get in there, ask him questions, talk to him, etc." The teacher then sees every single prompt that the students make and the feedback that they got on that in their dashboard. So, our ability to understand how we're using it, if it's appropriate use, is it secure and safe. This is a tool that lets our teachers do that. >> So, you
017said the teachers can select that day. >> So, there's only three of those. Language tutor, song generator, text translator. Yep. >> Those are the only three options would pop up for that. >> That's exactly right. So I could get in and say language tutor. >> Yeah. >> I would give it the instructions that I want to give it and then I would say I want to save it to my room. And by room in this case we're talking about Google Classroom. And then it posts out for the students who are with there at that time. And then they can get in and use the tools. When the teacher's ready for them to be done using those tools, they just cut back in and say that's it. You're done. and take it back away from them.
018>> Okay. >> So, I know that's a lot. Any questions on Magic School? >> Um, you say they're going to be trained >> Yeah. >> this Monday. Monday. Yeah. >> Like, how long will they be? I mean, how what what does that session look like? >> There are two I'm glad you asked. >> It could be a bit overwhelming. I mean, some people be spinning and >> there are two sessions. One is for people who are brand new to AI and that one will be hosted on a building by building level by the technology the techx team members who have been working all summer on this. There will be a second session that's for more advanced users and that'll be centralized and myself and Mr. Walt who works here will be teaching that for the
019more advanced users who don't need this stuff. Right? But to answer your question, the format is going to be that we are going to get our teachers in the room at each building and we are going to talk to them about what match school is and how to log into it. Then we are going to talk to them about appropriate use and the safeguards that are in place in terms of privacy etc. And then we are going to talk to them about best practices with AI, which is of course know that you have to check the content, right? >> Always go through the steps of being sure that you're being safe when you're using it with your students. Then we are going to pull this worksheet up and we are going to go one by
020one through the tools that we know can save them the most time. We're going to show them by clicking into it what it looks like to make one and then we're going to pause and give them 20 25 minutes per tool to play around on their computers and learn themselves. Good. >> Then our team members will float around. They'll assist them as they're asking questions etc. And hopefully by the time they leave they've had a good two plus hours of solid engagement with this platform and they've actually generated some things that they're going to be using. are students well do they have access to magic school on their own or only when a teacher gives them >> so the answer is only when a teacher gives it to them however the teacher can choose for
021that to be all the time >> okay >> so for instance a teacher could get their classroom rules out and make a chatbot whose only job is to communicate about classroom rules and let the tea suits know anytime you want to talk or ask a question about what's going on in the classroom this is available to you >> yeah because I would think we've encourage students to use magic school a safe platform versus chat GBT to be out there writing it or I don't know maybe that's not one that's what I use or you know >> we want to use a safe platform >> I also saw on here like there's um some pretty good student resources like I saw on the one tab there was like a song creator so I think about people
022who learn from right we learn yeah >> like musical people who learn in that manner and if you have a topic say it's science topic, but it creates a song like with a beat. Like what a great way to learn for >> you had to memorize the periodic table or something. >> Or I think about like when I was little, we learned the states with a song, right? We learned the capitals with the song. You learned all these things that you still remember today because it was a catchy little song. >> Man, my grandpa would have loved that. I think every day he made a song out of whatever we were doing that day. He just had >> in there. Oh, I was create. Yeah, just fix the create. >> I'm being incredibly risky right
023now, so feel free to shut me down. >> Yeah, >> but now I want to know if it works. >> Uh, grade level. Are they talking about periodic table in sixth grade? >> Oh, >> seven. Let's do seven. >> Um, pretty big. >> That was a mistake. That should actually go in song topic. Luckily, we can copy paste. Hi there. >> Okay, so they're showing us what a student would see. What song would you like me to use for the tune and melody? For instance, Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. >> Oh my god. >> Are there any specific details about the periodic table that you want to include? All right. Um, three blind mice. We're just writing lyrics. I see. >> Yeah, but it'll play. >> Yeah, I think it'll play right there. >> Whose voice
024do they use? >> I really think >> Perfect. I'll create a song about the periodic table to the tune of Three Blind Mice. Here it is. elements all around hydrogen's first hydrogen's first then just reading it to us they sit at the top of the table so neat with protons and an opera please sing in an opera voice >> m to answer your question I do think there might be another one that actually does that inside of this >> but I think we're pretty excited about where our teachers are headed and what we're offering them this year and I think that this is really gonna help us >> like to sing an opera with Mr. T I think you go back to what Mark said. I mean, this is a supplement for a teacher and
025it creates new engaging lessons. That's a big thing with kids nowadays. You've got it's got to be engagement. Some of these things engage and it's great tools to be able to do that. So, I do feel, you know, a lot of Mark's conversations and our conversations were let's have a platform that, you know, is not the wild west. >> Um, and I feel like this one >> is that. So, >> this is our first year with the magic school. >> Yes, >> we've done some free versions. >> Okay. >> Yeah, >> I've heard about a bit at conferences and stuff, you know. I just didn't know that. >> We've had some teachers using the free version, but this is our first year where it's a districtwide enterprise adoption. >> Yeah. >> I think what's so
026neat about it, right, um there's a spectrum of what people are comfortable with and this allows the student the teachers who are more comfortable to dive a little bit deeper. Um but other teachers just to dabble in it and start to figure it out um as the world progresses just so quickly. >> You got to meet them where they're at. >> Yeah. And prepare your students of course. >> Yeah. That's >> right. >> So what's the 100% use this you think? Or 95% of teachers >> of our teachers will get 100% exposure. year. We'll also follow up with our building integration specialists whose job it is to get out there and train as the year gets started and as the year goes on. So, we'll keep at it, but they do have a platform for
027us to get in and see who's using it, how they're using it, how they're making the most of it. And what I think we'll probably also do is use that information to assess who our power users are, and then bring them back to talk to everybody else. >> And then what about teachers that have really good project lessons already? are they able to put it in their project lessons and maybe update it, refresh it, you know, something they need. Okay. >> What they can also do is in almost every Magic School tool that they have, you'll see a place where you can add your own files. >> Okay? >> And so if you already had an amazing lesson and you just needed a quiz for that, you could pop your stuff in and it would
028generate the quiz. Then you check it for accuracy, differentiation, etc. Ship it out. >> Yeah. Whether you're making new or just having use your own tools. Absolutely. >> I guess it is too. It'll it'll change depending on grade level, right? Like I I could see this being a very strong pull at like middle school, high school, um and even at the other spaces and like things that they already have and want to tweak or modify. But um I know at the college level we're beginning to use this a lot more too. So >> pretty neat. >> With me? >> That's good. Okay. I do. I mean, Mark kind of went through that. The summer has been he's had three or four tech kids, interns that have done an incredible job all summer and we only
029had so much time to share with it, but they came into our admin team meeting today. We've got good kids that have done a lot with getting all of our Chromebooks up ready, our networks up and ready. The the they printed all the new key badges for staff. I mean, it's he's got a department that's run him well and does a lot to make sure that our teachers have the tools they need um and that the kids have, you know, teachers that are, you know, engaged with this. So, having that TechX team, getting teacher leaders in front of it was a great idea by Mark to get teachers on board with this and teacher leaders on the spot to to drive it. So, we can always play it out there and then it's who scarfs
030it up, but when you've got teachers teaching teachers, it's more powerful. So, it's good. >> Oh, I do have just one question. I forget exactly what the um problem was, but the damages that um came out as a we thought maybe it was a problem to Chromebooks. >> USB Tik Tok thing. >> What did it was it big problem or how many? >> I wouldn't call it a big problem. I don't have an exact number for you. I mean, it's it's more than 20, right? >> Okay. Not quite wide. What our interns did was they went through every Chromebook and they cleaned them. It was meticulous to the point where they were a little frustrated that this was all they were doing all day. But what we have to hand back to our students is
031one incredibly clean, ready to go Chromebooks. But they also during that process looked in every power port, every USB port, etc., and identified where they thought this might have been related to the sticking the metal in ports situation. >> Okay. >> And if you want a number on exactly what number, get it for you. It wasn't. >> I can tell you that it wasn't a large enough number to cause them to come to me and say, "Oh my gosh." >> Okay. >> We have to buy so many. >> Yeah. Okay. >> Speaking of buying, how many did we buy this year? Do >> 150, I think. >> Yeah. What we do there is we get to the end of the year and we say, "All right, examine the entire fleet. How many do we have
032here on the shelves and out for repair?" Then we say, "What do we think our numbers are going to look like next year?" Right? Project some growth. Then we say, "What would it take to have an extra 10% on the shelf?" So we know there will never be a situation where a student comes down to the library or the office and says,"I need a computer because I left mine at home." And we have to say, "No, right." And that's the number that we typically use for the next school year. This year that number was 150. >> Do we have an 100% turn back in rate? >> It's never 100%. Okay. >> Um really high though, I would Yeah, >> they do really well. We pester them quite a lot via >> if not it's on
033their fees >> is that yeah >> okay yeah >> exciting stuff >> any other questions >> thank you >> thanks Mark >> moving on to um new business master facility planning >> all right >> Mr. Bailey. >> Um, just I'm just going to kind of again I think it's healthy just to walk through the process where we're at. Charlie's going to talk a little bit as well. SHP so you guys know since the last meeting you guys uh we approved the purchase. We did close on the property. Um I didn't write the date in here but um it is closed. So right now we are working with the township on a um conventional zoning change. It's really not it's not a zoning change. It was R3. It's just an application so they know what our
034use is. Um so that I think is at their August 15th BZA. We'll go through the BZA. Um so you know we're wrapping up all those pieces on our end. Um since then you guys also at that meeting um approved the RFQ for solicitation for architectural and engineering. That was posted July 15th. deadline for submission was the 29th. Then we had a few days to rank firms and um and then the target date for board approval for the resolution tonight with our timeline there. Um so that you guys know, we followed, you know, the process, the legal process. We did have two firms um apply for the the RFQ. Um we went through a scoring rubric. Um that was myself, Todd, Teresa, and Troy. um and then obviously selected um our top firm which was
035SHP. So tonight you guys will approve a resolution for the ranking of the firms and then authorizing the execution of agreement for the architectural services related to um a lot of whereas in that inside of this this is really your piece of it but I just wanted to show that we had Delta Engineering Group and SHP were our two um that we looked at and then we ranked SHP at the top of that and at this point uh tonight we'll um you may as well approve SHP as the top and um my ability to get an agreement in with them for those services. So, with that said, I did want to have Charlie here tonight because I think probably the question that I've got asked most is what's this timeline? How's this working? What are
036the next steps? And I'm going to let him just kind of 50,000 foot this for us. He might dip down to 30 a little bit. I'm not sure. But um just so that you guys have the big picture of where we go from here. >> Yeah. So thank you. Uh kind of a a part of the master planning is opportunities come up and and we are excited to uh help partner with you guys to um basically um do a tenant fit out is really the term for the the administrative office moving. So right now that the kinderare building is set up for kindergarten or preschoolers and uh we'll we'll retrofit it for so it's for adults. Um and then in the meantime we will also uh explore Mark Cook the place the the area they're
037going to vacate about 5,000 square feet and we will um work with the district to reprogram that reinvision that space so it can free up uh classrooms throughout Mark Cook. Um, so we've looked at it and we were confident that we could find about five to six spaces that within Mark Cook that would move into the administrative straight up space where the board of administration is. So, um, so it's in order to have everything done literally a year from now, that's really the target. Um, you kind of got to back into having the construction of Mark Hook done a year from now. That's got to get that done. Um, but before that's open, we got to get the Kinderare done and built so these folks can move out and vacate it. So, we need to
038move fairly quick uh on both projects. Um, the the office the the admin office rena is again it's adults. It's it's 14 to 17, you know, people total. It's it's pretty formulaic other than, you know, and so we can move on that quick. We think we might be able to bid that uh by November. Um and then off come to the board with recommendations. The board would authorize a sign a contract and then construction would happen um January, February, March about 90 days to to make that happen. Um that's pretty typical. In the meantime, we would then continue to design Mark Cook did that. Probably going to bid them separate just because it's two different sites. It's also kind of a little bit two different construction uh methodologies. The the office is more kind of
039drywall doors and office environment and then the Mark Cook is more educational. It's higher kind of higher level to take the wear and tear of kids heavier use. Um we would bid that uh probably later December, early January. Uh but you can see on the schedule it says pre-construction. There's a lot of like leg work of ordering things and making sure stuff's fabricated. And then once these folks move out, then construction will move in. And it's about four and a half months of construction. April, May, June, July, August, and have it turned over by August 15th or August 12th. You know, we we might have a substantial completion by like maybe August 1. And then and so you guys could break it in a little bit before students show up. So, um, in black, uh,
040is kind of a bi-weekly, every other week kind of check-in of how we continue to develop the design and kind of the details that we start to ask. Um, and you can see some of the things that are as far as technology, furniture, uh, the finishes. Um, we will have renderings done so so folks can see, you guys can see what's going to be produced. There's a visual um and then you can kind of see that week of Thanksgiving is CD page turn. So we we got to go we got to move pretty quickly to get this so we can be done a year from now. So questions I think for the rec over here Mark Cook when they were using the ideas that we talked about in Mason type of >> Yeah. So, the
041concepts that we've shown is is kind of a more modern media center. Um, and it's somewhat maker space is what we're we're kind of seeing if it can fit. Um, so you're if you've been in Mark Cook's media center, it's it's two classrooms that just have a bunch of bookshelves. And so by going back to where the media center was, it's a lot higher volume. There's some opportunities to to create a really cool environment where students are like, I want to go there. I want to I want to build there. I want to learn there. I want to dig deeper, you know. So, it's it's kind of a destination and then it's surrounded by a variety of of of other spaces that we're still trying to figure out what what the functionality will be. But
042the goal is to give Mark Cook a a kind of an interior refresh that is fitting for 2026 and folks say, "Wow, this is really cool." And and then see the effect of it, you know, because it might that's sometimes that says we better we might do more beyond this. I think kind of as we've talked and I know we're going to meet again Friday with SHP and their team is to narrow with administration kind of the what we feel like can be a long-term solution in there and then bring it to the teachers to start talking about okay here's the space how do you what does this look like what is the best use from an elementary teacher level lens be able to kind of envision it that way to get some teacher input
043collaboration same point. So first it that's I mean it started seriously with like six designs that could go in over there. So it's really narrowing up with building admin and then kind of looking five 10 years down the road we still want to be you know suitable for that and flexible enough for that >> um to then bring it to teachers where we don't have six options and trying to do that but we have one or two that we can really then talk through and say okay how we do this. So >> big thing space. >> Would it be the classrooms? Like the idea of having classrooms with the windows kind of like we >> um I I'm we talked a little bit about classrooms. I think there's some opportunity to put a couple classrooms
044in there. >> I'm really it's hard to say. Okay. Because I think you don't want to limit yourself, right? >> Um and that's where we're I think we're Charlie said we're probably struggling on our first meeting of who all right if we do that >> Yeah. And that's what it is. Um, >> yeah. I mean, right now your your your current classrooms in Mark Cook are are, you know, one singular classroom might have four people in there. And so could that that functionality OTP move to this new space and be more appropriately designed have the things that they need to do OTP and then that classroom becomes a classroom for >> So you're saying like there could be five to six classrooms being used for other things than traditional classrooms. Those could become traditional classrooms
045and that space become how we use. >> Yes. Yeah. in Park Cook. If you think about, you know, when that building was built, it was pretty much just, you know, traditional shotgun classrooms and rope classroom after classroom and and you guys have adapted it to kind of the different needs. Yes. >> For today's learners and so now it's it's it's kind of take some of those that are intermittent throughout the building, sprinkle it and do a really deliberate design in in this space that'll be vacated. Dane, you're gonna have five, six classrooms open up where you can then fill those with 25 kids. >> All right, that makes sense. >> Right now, they're basically It's like wasting space right now. >> Yeah, it's just not efficient. >> It's using space more efficiently. Basically, >> I
046was originally in your mindset. We're just going to build walls. >> Yeah. Our first test did we did we had five classes in there. But you could. >> Yeah. Yeah. But that's why we have >> Yeah. This is a more this will be a better bang for your buck and and I think overall the user the teachers the students will say, "Man, this is such a better space for that task. >> Well, it will also accommodate our growth >> as a district. >> Yeah. >> Yep. >> The long run. >> Yep. So related, do we have a timeline of the like community engagement meetings that we can let them have peak on this? I know that they we don't want them to completely change Yeah. >> for the direction of this, but at least so
047they can see and then hopefully they'll be we'll get more community engagement for our bigger long-term projects. >> Yeah. Yeah. So there's going to be kind of two parallel community engagements. We're still going to be doing the community engagement for master planning. Yes, >> that's that's level number one. Then level two is we we will and probably need to identify a couple of uh specific presentations where this information will be shared, anybody can come out not beyond a board meeting and uh and folks can just understand, ask questions and get better understanding of what the scope is. So that's very typical need to find the right >> loop of those because I do think we have community members reaching out to all five of us interested in the community engagement or that have asked questions
048that we've put out there like hey come let your voice be heard come share >> um that aren't traditionally involved in things that we really want to encourage >> Charlie and I just kind of started talking about we're going to look at that because we had a plan >> for that long-term community engagement now it needs to fit in okay here's what we're This is, like I've said, it's a stop gap for a little bit, but um, you know, we still have to plan for the bigger growth and this is part of it. So, I think we're going to start reinvisioning that for fall and >> fall next year and really into into the fall of 26. Yeah. So most thing I wanted like over the top almost so folks will really see what we
049can do with newer space and >> better space and they can really see the vision going forward. make this space like >> so inviting, so engaging, over the top, you know, >> big ribbon cutting, >> just like something just, you know, something big and something that they'll see. It's like, well, another building could be like this. It's a good investment type. >> I think also along that lines, like capturing what those classroom spaces look like now. >> Yeah. >> So like when someone walks in what has now become a classroom, they can see what that space is and then see the new space, too. like we're able to redesign this space into that and get this classroom, right? I think that's going to be that visual is going to be really important >> and the
050value of your partnership because like you said without you we would have just built five classrooms and been done with it and like hey pretty good >> but like wow you know like >> well getting the master plan and going was step one and actually having a couple of our staff members walk all your buildings we got to see and say oh well we probably could do this a little more efficiently and and it's very typical with buildings that are you know built in the 60s and 70s where there's a lot teaching things today that we we didn't provide 20 years ago. >> Even 10 years ago, >> any further questions? >> All right. Thank you and thank you for joining us meeting. >> U moving on to new business, item eight, public participation. Mrs.
051Sherzinger, do we have anyone signed in for public participation? >> No. you. Moving on to agenda item 8B, treasur report. Mr. Shankle, >> well, that's going to be not as exciting as Charlie. >> Let's see what you can do with AI. >> Yeah, >> I would be the one where he needs all the help to come in shake on. So, um, on the five-year forecast, I know I put all that in the packet, but try to bring up the main, um, lines here, so we could just kind of focus on on that. I mean, I know we've all talked about what was going on with the state budget and just a lot of moving parts on that and I'll try to try to give you the impact on us. I mean, now this is all
052forecasted, you know, and everyone's in enrollment. Kids are coming in and a lot of a lot of moving parts on this, but just where we're at right now in our forecast. I'll try to try to point it out. So, we've got everything should be moved on that forecast. So, now in 2025, those are our our numbers right here in this column. So, what I have in here is the unrestricted grants and aid. That's what the state gives us with it's not restricted at all. I mean this is you know classroom supplies salaries etc. the restricted grants and aids. That's where we got our DPIA for when we went into C. Also, student wellness. I mean, a lot of our programs like uh the Ascend Academy intervention services, we take we use that because that money
053is they want to get those kids going in that revenue. Um on this if you can see in 23 we got and so in the total when we get this from the state, it's basically restricted and unrestricted in one line and you can see that we got 19 million6 in 23 and 24 we got 192 and in 25 last year basically 21. Well, if you start coming across what we're forecasting here, you know, we had some pretty good jumps until this these years out here where this number here is 20 21 and I'm just rounding up to the millions. And the same thing here, 21 and and 27. this year basically we dropped down to 196 then we're 196 basically again and 194 the thing that's just very very tough for us is that our
054taxpayers are paying more money right now I mean we're floor going up I'll elaborate a little bit more on that a little bit but the state then they're saying we're a wealthier district so they're taking money away and that's probably the most frustrating thing because our total revenues coming across you can see was at 33 37 7 and 39 last year. Then we're basically just flatlined on our revenue for the for the next few years. So that's is everything stays you know this stays the same. Now you got to remember that these two years are the what the state just did on the two-year I mean on the on the budget. So these are all projected but as you if you can see we've had excess for the three years. We're showing again that we
055should be in excess I mean under budget until out here and then these numbers really get big because we're basically flatline revenue. I mean we got a 10% in for healthcare. We got 4% raises. I mean all that kind of stuff forecast out and we really start getting into our cash. Now if we get to that point you know that's five years from now we'll start looking. But in this in 2028 we start getting into our cash. So, that's where we haven't had that in a little while on there. So, um I don't want anyone to freak out either, but you know, because we really do have to watch what's going on and then we'll see, you know, a lot of moving parts because we're growing more houses, more kids. We're going to need more
056buses, but they're bringing in more money. So, it's going to be kind of a, you know, just we'll work with and see what we got. >> So, so worst case scenario, you know, 2028, we're dipping into what we've got on hand now. >> Yeah. I mean, that's why we should have a savings, right? >> Well, and I would I would say if we reach that point, we're doing that. We're really looking hard at whether saving. >> Yeah. >> Because that's the this is where a typical district gets in this pattern and they're on a fiveyear >> Yeah. >> operating. We're on 1%. So, we have to really start thinking about >> because we can only dip into cash so much. >> Yeah. Right. Right. >> You know, we don't have that option to say, "Hey,
057we're about out of cash. We've got to go back out." Um, so that's where we have to really start making and we've I mean six, seven years ago we had to make those decisions and you know that's a year-to-year thing. So I don't you know you like seeing a balanced budget. >> Yeah. >> Um you know if not a little little under so that you're prepared for that. But there are unknowns here. You guys know that the house is coming in the you know the income's coming in. We just can't you can project it but you can't right. So, right. >> Uh, I think that's the we're just going to have to keep a steady eye on this. Todd is right. I mean, I think the, you know, we've said that the way the fair
058school funding plan is is modeled is your taxpayers pay X, state's going to give you Y and as your taxpayers, you know, as that tax or you grow in value, the state's going to give you less. So, and it, you know, the other side of that is, and we can say till we're blue in the face, the funding formula didn't count account for inflation in this goound. So, they did not increase their model to what it cost to educate, didn't I? I think they're still on 2020 numbers. Yeah. Um, so but you know I think you know we have to be good stewards as we always are and have to look at this and know that you know we'll continue to update it as we see updates. I think you know Bill I know that
059you asked for enrollment numbers. I think right now we're up 90 enrollments right now. Um so we're still waiting as I kind of said we're still waiting on that. You know, we're starting to get a few of the withdrawals, but not as many. And we still Donna's still queued up of 30 something in the queue to enroll. So, you just got to kind of wait and see as we start the year and where we're at. >> Have we seen that pick up in the last few weeks? >> Yeah. >> I think it's important for our community to understand too like um you know, you hear constantly, well, like as we have more taxpayers, the school gets more money, but typically they have children too, right? And so we're spending that money on buses and teachers
060and the growth that it costs inside the school system. So it's not like we just get a not like it's play money, right? It's like money that's going to go to support those students who are coming into our district. >> Well, hope hopefully it turns those red numbers to a to a black or to a a slightly different shade of red. >> Right. So this is our fiveyear forecast as we are right now without taking it. Yeah. So you look at you know uh June 30, 2025. You look June 30 of 2030 and it's 80% less. >> Yeah. But that's if there's not one additional house built >> one. Yeah. So, but we do have fiveyear forecast for that reason. We can't be prepared. So, it's not just making a decision, you know, right? >>
061This is for next year. This is, you know, this is >> look might have to get to where we get to the point where I Okay, we're three years out. So we have to make some cuts because things are slowing down or whatever. >> Well, we also know there's a lot still going on the state with property tax conversations and where this will do them. So >> yeah, that could be a constant significant. >> Yeah. >> If they change that, >> right? >> You know, the hard thing and that we've said it and you know that's the hard thing with our community is we haven't been out asking for operating dollars. It's been the 1% where we're at with the 20 mil and there's no new property for schools, no new property taxes for schools
062that have been voted in because that's we're just following the way that you know taxpayer you know that tax funding is set up. So the 1% is what we budget off of and it goes up and down at times with the economy. Obviously, it'll go up as we have more residents, but it's to how much how much we don't know. So, year-to-year look, but I think you guys know and listen up to Charlie, eventually our ask will have to be for space and we want to make sure that, you know, if there's something locally funded we can do in there, we try to stay under our budget a little bit so that we can do a little bit of it locally. But if we continue to get it taken at that state level, it's hard
063to That's where we've always said even in the last bond issues, it's very hard to use operating dollars to build space. I mean, you think about the board office visits, the sale of the green, and really the DPIA dollars that we got last year that were unexpected that allowed us to do this. Um, to do that long term, to use operating dollars is really, aside from a few cops issues that upgrade energy and lighting and, you know, projects that have a useful life, we can do that internally, but to brick some mortar, it's hard to do out of operating. >> Yeah. Well, and that's one thing that, you know, we're talking on that that once really we kind of get the scope and and an idea of the budget on what we're looking at. I
064mean, I want I want to get our audit finance committee together and look at how are we how are we funding this and you know and you're you get in there, I can just tell you like when I was here when our schools got built and renovated, you know, you start moving walls out. You never know what's behind them sometimes. You know, I've never seen change orders reduce them how that's usually things. So, you know, just kind of, you know, plan and see what they come up with with everything >> and get our committee together to make sure that when we spend this money, you know, we're spending smartly as we, you know, we should be doing. So, >> our next little >> Yeah, thank you. That's everything you just talked about. >> Yeah, this
065is this is pretty much everything in here. I I I do just want to kind of point out that the district on our five we're basically getting the same funding and our go residents we're paying for it straight to schools now and the state's taken away. So I mean I think that's the thing it's just difficult because everyone they're they see that increase right on their tax bill and hopefully we can get that fixed on down the road. We did talk about the fair schooling f the fair school funding plan. You know they still didn't fund it. The state did and they just kind of put a number in there. It's uh very frustrating that they did that. In total, I'm just jumping here. They took about $950 million from public schools and put it
066down here to choice. So, you have people that are I'd say in a fluent areas getting taxpayer dollars to send her into a private school. It's um it's amazing. So, but they basically it's a wash of 950 that way and 950 uh that way. And to basically just transfer some of the money from public schools to private school. >> Amazing. >> Two years ago, they forecasted it would cost about a billion dollars. So they off two years ago. >> Yeah. And it's that's I mean it's a lot of talk still going on there. So >> and it's politicians. >> Yeah. >> Northern Ohio more so than down here that just constantly attack public schools. >> Kids. >> Yeah. So that's kind of on that. I think the only other thing is our federal federal funding.
067We are still waiting on on that. This is our last year's number. You can see in total we got 1.3. Right now we're at 1.1, but we are missing title 2A and four. So we're about break even on on that. So we're looking at, you know, our budget and what we've had out federal was going to be kind of flatlined. And so we'll move that, you know, staff around and that to make sure got that budget appropriate. Do we have a Do we know when that will come through or not really? >> It was supposed to come through. I think we got an email last week that it should be coming our allocations, but it still hasn't. >> They created a new system for us to do our grants and then it didn't work. >>
068So, so we're working out of two different systems this year. >> Oh, >> yeah. That'll be fun. >> Anything else? >> Very user friendly. >> Any questions for Ty >> other than what's been asked? Moving on to new business C financials. Um item A. Do we have a motion? Uh 1 through eight. Approve one through eight. >> So move. >> Second. >> Lisa made the motion. Melissa second. Any discussion? >> Just talk about number seven. Uh, seven is um we contract I believe this year we got three kids at MRD. I mean it used to be MRD but it's wild. >> Okay. >> We have like three or four kids there. That's what that amount is. >> Basically it's a per student model or unit model contract each. And then number eight, >> eight is
069that is um our all of our financial statements are prepared on a cash basis. And this is the state auditor's office, local government services. They come in and help put on acrruel. So you're like your accounts payable, they help with prepare the balance sheet, income statement, all that kind of stuff. >> Thanks. >> Any further discussion? >> Mr. Shenko, can you please call the role? >> Mrs. Martine, >> yes.

Any discussion? >> I know um I know you see a little bit of the mentor or the educator mentors on there. Um tomorrow morning we do have that new teacher reception if you're able to stop by. You'll get to see the I think eight new staff members. Most I think there's of the eight too. It's their first year. The rest
071of them are familiar to go and experienced people. But >> this is also the time of the year where you start to have salary upgrades. Teachers that have been taking credit hour courses and moving >> horizontally on a salary schedule. >> Any further discussion?

073much but I'm sure if you saw on our page. >> Yes, >> there are some detours that we're having to communicate. >> Oh, yeah. >> A lot of stuff going on out in town. So, they're >> working hard communicating with those families and getting that out there, but our routes right now um have not changed tremendously. We're waiting to see the numbers on what we have to do at all. The routes are essentially stops. >> Be an extra bus to stop. You don't know until you kind of get through that process. >> Not for what they say. >> I can't remember. It's on the web page. They were doing short 48 bill. >> Yeah. >> I tried to let my boss try to let me work from home since the construction. >> Yeah. It's going
074to take me an extra 10 minutes to get to work. Any further discuss? >> And then just yearly with preschool, that's just to proving the rates for the preschool. >> A nice little donation. >> Yes. >> I was just going to ask is that I can't remember what the what was last year's. Is it same? >> Same. >> Okay. >> We did it weekly last year. >> Okay. >> Um this is just changing it to monthly, right? >> How does it compare to others? Like do you know >> not many full day preschools, but yes. >> Okay. Good. I won't go >> it's the whole thing of that when it was I'll go back to Charlene Thomas and remember telling me that along with kindergarten it's supposed to be self-sufficient with that as much as
075possible >> Mr. Shenko can you please call the role >> Mrs. Wy >> yes >> Mrs. Babrai >> yes >> Mr. Rar >> yes >> Mr. Gray >> yes >> Mr. was. >> Yes. >> Moving on to um agenda item H, board of education reports. Melissa, >> um there's one article about student achievement and how middle school students benefit from le read reading aloud. So, I don't know that it's going to be really beneficial, but I could send it along to Theresa. I'm sure that the middle school teachers already are aware of that. So really that beneficial probably have plenty of emails at this point. >> Um we had our public relations meeting today >> and we have our veterans recognition football game is September 5th, Friday, September 5th. So make sure you let our
076local veterans know. It's a great game. Great recognition for um Great Oaks. I had I was two weeks ago I was in Columbus for the Ohio uh career tech education conference. Um great few days there a lot like capital conference but for career tech schools uh learn things well AI we talked about it in this time. We great thing about the oaks, they're constantly looking for our career tech throughout Ohio um how best to serve the kids, what programs to offer and we talked a lot this year about how, you know, three years ago telling kids to you go into it, go into it, go into it, and now this year they're like, AI is doing a lot of those IT jobs, you know, so uh so what, you know, what can we look at?
077There's still some IT jobs. There's still IT jobs out there with AI. So, uh, looking at other programs, um, a lot of, uh, schools throughout Ohio sharing just like a capital conference we all go to sharing what works in their districts, how their schools, it's pretty cool. Uh, Great Oaks is one of the top five career schools in the country. Um, recognized throughout the country. We go to the national conference, too. uh and seeing that uh what great oaks does. I think they presented three or four different times uh up there and every other school Ohio learn from what we do. Great. It's great. Um there one of the sessions also went to was about uh some of the programs that are booked up the quickest like how can we get more kids into uh
078or we've expanded some programs. expanded Roy Oral Oaks or welding programs expanding and other campuses too expanded other uh programs but they're also they're looking at possibly some adult ed programs for rooms are not programs are not full maybe getting some of our senior kids into those programs in the evenings I mean there's there's space >> that's something and I wasn't even aware of that until I went to that they're exploring that >> they're doing that with other uh districts throughout Ohio again trade those they presented together. Yeah, it's good good information. >> Thank you. >> So, Bill, just question about that. And you might not know the answer to this, but I know like the adult ed programs, the adults have to pay for those programs, but our students can go to the Oaks,
079you know, for the cost of the student fee. So, if they go to the adult ed >> um >> portion of that, would they have to pay that tuition then? Okay. >> I wonder if it'd be handled like um CCP like where >> there's been Yeah, there's been convers I don't think >> you can use adult dollars for some students but that's >> right. I don't think a kid would have to pay for that but there is that opportunity. Yeah, I didn't know if they had just >> but >> Lisa. Um so the only update that I have since our last meeting um is in response to the House Bill 96 vetos that Dwine um did the he has formed a property tax reform working group um that uh they have had one he formed
080this on um see June so he formed it and the first meeting was on July 21st of this group and they're hoping um for a um plan of action by summer of next year. But I mean they are, you know, looking at property tax. They're um supposed which was item 55 veto, item 65 veto, the 20 mil floor calculation. They're supposed to look at that. And then also um item 66, which was the school district property tax levy restrictions. Um that was what they spent the majority of their time on at that um July 21st meeting. So um I'll kind of monitor that to see what what might come from it, but I was somewhat surprised that he did form form a group to actually take a deep dive into that. It's got some county
081commissioners, two superintendent on it and um >> county auditors. >> Yeah, county auditors and um I think either two or three legislators. I can't remember um legislators on there, so I can't remember, but >> yes. >> Thank you. >> Any questions for Lisa? >> Corey, >> not a ton to report. had a real nice conversation with uh Lisa Allen last night and just kind of got some background information. You know, they're got a meeting tomorrow night about the the property with the apartments and whatnot. And the reason why they're looking at that again is because it's zoned for fat for in industrial. So, they're looking at do they really want to do it? Do they you know, so talk about that. And then of course there's a big project coming up that I think will
082make a lot of noise, you know, so I think keep an eye on that and the houses aren't stopping. You they do have a reprieve and you know slow down on the properties, but it's, you know, it's coming. So >> we're a hot community, aren't we? >> I want to be in that position. >> Um, any questions for Corey? Uh just for my report, I'm on the PR um committee with Bill. Uh that veterans recognition is also for first responders. So um just letting our first responders know as well. Um also, uh there is a veterans diploma program. Um and we do have a date planned, but we do not have a veteran to recognize yet. So, if there anybody knows or if our community knows of a veteran that didn't receive their diploma because
083they were away or missed out on finishing um their high school um career and they are veteran, please reach out to um our superintendent um or high school principal um because it would be great to recognize and have a a ceremony to recognize that individual. And then there are some dates for spring events. Um the recognition, the business partners recognition breakfast is going to be February 25th and the senior citizens dinner is going to be March 18th. I know that's way ahead, but if you're like me, I feel like the academic year goes so quickly. Um and then waiting on a few other um things that we'll be doing on the spring. uh Goian Education Foundation. We had an amazing successful golf outing every year. We couldn't do it though without um the partnerships um
084and the volunteers. Um and it's really neat to see like our community come together with our business partners. Um but we made about $23,000 this year, which um is more than usual. So, uh, each organization was able to walk away with about $7,500 to continue to give to scholarships. Um, you know, athletic boosters are always supporting our athletic program, district improvements, and then teacher grants as well. So, um, >> and I came in second place again. I am winning it next year. >> You actually came in third. >> Well, minus 11 and 2 - 12. Oh, >> you actually play. >> Um, >> who won? >> Yeah. >> Who won? >> Is it the one that always wins? >> You know what I've decided this year though? Next year I'm making him volunteer. He doesn't
085get a play. >> Oh, shoot. >> No, we're doing the heckling all that. >> We'll see if I can make that happen. >> And then Education Foundation is also hosting Boots, Bourbon, and Barbecue. Um, so that's October 4th. Tickets and sponsorships are live now. Uh, so go on GEF's Facebook um, page or website. If you guys have questions, you can reach out to me or put in contact with me and I'll make sure people get the link. That's it for me. Anybody have questions about anything we talked about >> for the football game, the veterans football game and the first are we going to like make a post or send out a Okay, cool. >> Yeah. Yeah, they were finalizing Yeah, usually it's already gone over to the um Fairmont County Veterans Association, so they've
086got it, but we'll start to post those things pretty heavy here. >> And it said in the >> not necessarily >> still. Yeah. Okay. >> There was a discussion after the meeting. So they're identifying maybe a better space. >> Okay. Because it worked out well last year when it was >> Yeah, we might be in a better space. So >> Okay, good. More to come on the exact location. >> Anything we're struggling on the space. >> It'll be close. It'll be somewhere on our campus. Um, >> all right. Moving on. New business. I superintendent report. Mr. Bailey. >> Okay. Couple things here for action with you guys. Adopt a building. So, in August, we update our, you know, what buildings you want to kind of adopt and be a part of their their communication. And
087then in January, we take care of appointments. So tonight, this is what it was last year.
