Board chair has discretion to limit the number of comments on a favorite topic.

Uh, with that in mind, uh, we have first Amber. Yes, sir. Come on down. >> Thank you so much. Um, just really quickly, we have the Bay Area Concert Band that we host at the
005North High School band room. We've been hosting them there for the last couple years. on Thursday nights they meet. It's a group of mostly retirees and and also current students that meet together from the area and uh rehearse there. And we recently received a $2,000 donation from them for a brand new Tener Sachs for our program. So, I just wanted to make public comment and and give them a thank you for that. That was a very generous donation and we're really grateful to them. So, just wanted everybody to know. And that's it. Short and sweet. Next, this guest. >> First, I would like to say thank you for allowing me to speak. Um, what I wanted to talk about is um there was some tough scheduling that occurred um to beginning the school year. Um
006just because of the changes that occurred within the staff within um at our school. Um, we had a class that was going to be a general music class that would be with Amber Yester. I I teach the life skills students. Uh, this is my 14th year. Um, and um due to um inflexibility, I'll say of um core classes and we had to cancel that for this year. um the fact that a general music a general ed teacher wants to take a chance and work with my students and and have a great um class that has been proven to be very very successful where they feel like they they're the focus of the class and I I can say in general ed classes that's not the way it usually is. Um, I was heartbroken. Um, but
007due to, um, working with the administration at the high school, uh, Shane Brown and, uh, Tracy Lane, um, we came up with a plan that next term we'll be able to do that. Um, and I'll have due due diligence to make sure that this happens because I think it's the, um, best for these students because they get to have attention of a a master teacher. I know that's my wife, but um but she's a master teacher. Um and I think it's been proven by her resume. Um and I I will be in the office making sure this happens for my students that are under my case load. But I just wanted to make sure you guys knew um this occurred. And um I um I it's very hard for me to to come and say
008this in a public statement because um I would rather not. But I think this is something the community needs to know because um I'm not the only teacher that had this this problem. Um and um I just want it to be known. >> Thank you. back. >> I apologize. Thank you very much. >> Um, just want to start by thanking our new board. Welcome. We're excited as a community to be able to get to work with you, to listen to your counsel. um to work together and grow positive things for our district. Um with that in mind, we do recognize that we've had a a change in leadership in our district here just obviously um tonight. And um just a few questions to put out there, not with any expectation that they will be answered
009tonight, but just so they get on the agenda to make sure that we have some transparency and some hope and direction as the public and parents to know where Mr. Swagger's salary is going to be going to how is it going to be allotted? Are we going to be able to cultivate some of these things that Mr. Yeser was talking about that we've lost and dropped off? Are we going to be able to recirculate that um income that no longer is being invested in that position? You know, these are some of the questions we have. We don't obviously, you know, we're not expecting any answers tonight, but hopefully um within the next two or three board meetings, maybe we'll be able to see some type of redistribution for those funds. And then um as far
010as um making sure that um that we are heard as a general public, I I don't and and I I'm not interested in knowing the particulars about Mr. Swaggery, but I know that there is a lot of public um interest and public concern that even though we have had a change in leadership, is it going to be um at the detriment of people that are in the district of families that have been negatively affected or are we going to be able to band together and be able to um rise above that situation? So just in closing um we look forward to working with this new situation but in hopes we would like some transparency. Um you know we had had a lot of things cut um attrition did not come through as we were promised.
011So, these are funds that we're hoping can be uh reallocated as well as leadership in new positions at the district level that are willing and open and no longer um pigeonhold in a certain way of thinking. So, that's all I have for tonight. Thank you very much. >> Next, we have student representative to the board. I think we're having Grace Clark. Grace. >> Hi guys, I am Grace Clark. I am a member of the student senior council and we came here today to give an update. So to start the year off strong, we have both the JV and varsity home volleyball games tonight as well as men and women's varsity soccer away at Phoenix. Unfortunately, our home football game this Friday was cancelled, but our guys did do a great job last week when they
012faced off against Atoria and won 20 to 17. Other than that, we had the Bulldog, we had the meet the Bulldogs on Tuesday, which had a great turnout as well as the demonstrations and acts put on by the athletes were all terrific. Freshman orientation, which was yesterday, also went well. The new freshmen all seemed very excited to start their high school careers and ready for all the new freedoms, especially the off-campus lunch. Today was the first official start date for the entire high school. And while it seemed like summer was too short, it was great to be back in the swing of things, and it will definitely be an exciting year. With future plans of tailgates, spirit weeks, and student sections, it does not seem like Northbend will be short in school spirit. Our leadership
013class is already off to a kick with the students already planning as many events as possible to help keep the student involvement up and making school an enjoyable place to be. The student council did want to wish the school board members a terrific new year. And as always, it is a great day to be a bulldog. Thank you. >> Thank you. Next we have association reports education association reporting for good evening. I'm excited to be here. Um uh we've had an wow the start of the new school year um is always um exciting and full of challenges and um lots of work. Um, but it just like one of the new things that we did this year was the meet and greet and um I know that at Hillrest there was a really really big
014turnout and there was a lot of enthusiasm and interest for the mystery thing which turned out to be a a book vending machine that uh students can earn uh special coins um through their AR reading and then they can use those coins to purchase a book that they can keep. So, I know that was really popular and it even has like flashing lights as you the hallway. It's pretty impressive. So, if you haven't been to Hillrest lately, I encourage you to come check that out. Um, at the secondary level, um there was a greater than expected turnout um at for the meet and greet. So, it was nice to to say hello to some uh new students and you know, as that's where I spent my evening was at at the high school actually. Um,
015but I only had three who popped into my class. Um, so I didn't get to meet everybody, but um, you know, high school students have a a lot on their plate. Some are working and so they don't always um, come to those types of events, but it was a better um, turnout than was expected. So, that was really good. Um, all of the buildings look amazing. I know the maintenance staff and custodial crew have been working really hard um, to prepare the buildings for our return. Um, many of the classrooms, including my own, at the middle school, by the way, I have three classrooms. So, I jump around. So, at the middle school, I have new floors, new lenolium tiles, so it looks really pretty. And the kids noticed it on the first day today.
016Um, I know at Hillrest there's a brand new window um in in one of the stairwells, the westernmost window. So, that's it is a huge window and it is brings in so much light. a good feeling walking through there. Um but with all of that said, um there's been a some extra challenges this year that um you know, things are expected with with people moving around, but um it feels like the middle school almost has an entire new staff almost. Um so many new um faces, not to the district, but new to the building. And so that brings its challenges. Um and we've also had new faces um new people at Hillrest and we had a new photocopy machines in all the building and so that was not expected and so that's required some um
017some extra time because the buttons are not in the same space takes a while to find what you're looking for and all of this adds to our stress at the start of the year. Um, part of the problem with the printers is that we were not even able to use them. Um, like during inservice week or quite a few days into inservice week, some of us um, poor tech team. I am so sorry, Joe. But yeah, it just added to our stress level. Um, but the machines are really nice and it once we get used to them, I think it will be a good thing and it'll be um easier that way because you you don't have to worry about like in my case, where did I send those papers? Which building was that? So,
018it's much easier. You just scan your badge and it prints for you on your on demand. So, that's really nice. um with with the changing um with all the different teachers moving into different places and because of declining enrollment and some of the changes that we made um by eliminating some positions um as Ben spoke to earlier, it it's had a a real significant impact and in in some ways that weren't expected as as Ben has already mentioned. one um the loss of the special music for for his students. Um but even at the elementary level, not having primary music um h has created issues. We love having Sarah there. Her expertise at the elementary level um is incredible. Um but what's happened is that scheduling for specials and um the core classes in the
019past for example like the core uh language arts and math was all at is a at a specific time to pro protect the core right always have it in the morning most of the time and and so like when I would try to work with my students and pull out students I would not pull out during that time and So I h basically would pull out my students in the latter part of the day. Well, now um the core instruction is no longer at a specific time in the day. It's all like popcorn all over the day schedule. And it makes it super hard to work and find times that I can find a cohesive time to work with students. Um and so in the past I used to be able to provide service um
020for my groups like four days a week. And now in some grade levels I can only do two days a week. And so I have to rely on my my EAS to maybe do some additional push-in support services. So um and I'm not the only one affected by that scheduling. It's it's it's um chaotic and and messy. And I know that the the building administrators um have built and have done the best they can with, you know, the situation, but it it's frustrating. Um, I also know that um with um reduction in in staff, we have increased class sizes and um the fourth grade at Hillrest, for example, is all at 30. Um um and so that's a real struggle when the North Bay has significantly fewer than that. Um so that's going to be,
021you know, be challenging. It's going to impact core literacy. Um, what else was I going to say about that? Yeah. So, but on the bright side, add my my presentation. Um, there's been some um some individuals that that I work with quite closely or see frequently in the buildings who always have a um positive energy. So, I want to recognize um those people tonight. Um and the next one, the first one is Melanie at the district office. I've been I work really closely with Melanie because she sets up all sets up all my groups for my um multilingual students. Um so, I work really closely with her, but every time I call her, she's always very positive. Um always, you know, just a bright light in my in my week or sometimes I talk to
022her daily. Um, so I just want to say thank you Melanie for all that you do. Um, I think a lot of her work goes unseen. So there's Melanie. Next, please. Next is Martha Kemple. Um, at the middle school last year, she was my neighbor. Um, and she, uh, at the middle school taught, um, in the resource room, and so I would see her every day, every morning in the hallway. And she always just has a fun, bubbly, um, um, approach. Um, and one example, um, at the end of last year, I think it was like the second to the last day of school or something, she was in her class with just a small group of students and playing a game and my students were also playing a game. And so, um, she had,
023I don't know, three students and I had like three or four students and I'm like, "Hey, let's let's play a game together." So, um, it was just a really great day. and um and then she turned around and bought the same game so she can play it with her class and she's now at um Hillrest teaching fifth grade and so I think she'll be a a great addition to the staff there at at um Hillrest. Next is Garrett Holmes. Um Garrett is the vice president of the association and so he's like my right-hand man and um always positive, always has good energy and um a good outlook on everything. And so even though we're faced with all the stuff I already talked about, he's like, "It's going to be a great year. We we've got
024this. It's going to be good." So thank you to Garrett. And then lastly, Frank Murphy. Um Frank um is a leader in his team for the for the um CTE programs. He's always like really working uh alongside his colleagues in that department helping them to um know what forms that need to be filled out and so being a real good mentor and also a really positive uh role model for for not only um the his uh students but also for his his colleagues. So, thank you to Frank. And that's all tonight. Any questions? >> Okay. >> Next item up is the consent agenda item that was the minutes for the August 7th August 21st meeting as well as the board to proceed. >> I move to the agenda. >> Okay. Any second? We have a
025any discussion. All right. Call for the question here. All in favor say I. >> Any opposed? No. Moving on to integrated programs. Understand what's going on. This is the uh annual report that is due yearly as part of the integrated guidance programs grant program through the state and integrated guidance now is the umbrella term that encompasses the student investment account high school success and um early interventions and supports EI. So um uh on a yearly basis we we want to present essentially what the budget was um what we spent the money on and then we open for public comment if there's any comment regarding the integrated programs grants and then we close that. There's there's no action required. just an annual report that goes into board faculty that we will then post on our website
026and submit um to ODP as part of an effort to be transparent about the spending of those grant funds. Um those of you who were on the board towards the end of last year um may recall that we ended a bianium a two-year period and and we were and that's what this is. This is the end of a two-year period and we submitted a new integrated grant um application and and it was very comprehensive. Um if you recall it was about a 37page document that went with that and there were some budgetary pieces and all of that was built in alignment with our strategic planning process and the the data results that were that were gathered through that process. So, um, in an effort not to con not to overwhelm, um, all of the members
027at once, I didn't share that, but I do want to share that with the new with everybody again, just so you can see where we're going with the integrated guidance as we're wrapping up this year. You can see a list of the different items that were purchased with that. Well, I'll go ahead and open up the public hearing. Uh, anybody anyone want to discuss the integrated program come forward? Can I just ask a clarifying question? >> If you have a question or it's on the record. >> Yes. >> I just wanted to clarify that funds every two years. >> The grant cycles are two years, right? Just kind of like state funding. It's a right two-year funding. >> Okay. And so and >> Okay. Your name? >> Melissa Peek. >> Okay. >> Thank you. I'm
028so sorry. I forget the computer doesn't. >> Um so it funds every two years. So um we're we're spending our we're finishing spending the last cycle and so this is going to fund for 2628. >> This is the actual annual report for 2425. >> Okay. >> Expenditures. So we're now in 2526 and then 267 is the new grant that was presented in spring. >> Okay. Perfect. And that Okay, great. Thank you. >> Anyone else have any uh public comment on the consultant? Well, with that in mind, I will close public comment. Board, any board have questions, comments, concerns? >> You know, I do I do want to add too though um that in the new grant cycle also in an effort to be more transparent with that spending and what the public wanted when we
029developed the uh strategic plan. We also aligned all the expenditures to go in the strategic plan so people can clearly see how that spend how those how that spending aligns to what the community and the staff want. All right. Well, that in mind, we no action required of the board. So, we'll move on to item. It's number nine, policy update. First read, no actions necessary. That is really nothing for us to do at this point. Correct. >> Correct. >> There's not no action for us to take at this time. Policy >> not on the first reads unless we have any questions. Okay. Onions. >> I do. >> Okay. >> I don't know how this goes because one of them is the personal electronic devices and that one of the lessons first read and I don't
030I don't know. Um it was pretty ambiguous. I don't know if this is the time to talk about that or do we do that at another time or this now is time. This is a good time as well. >> Okay. Because in the I've been asking about this for a while and because it already in effect um since kids are full. Um because this is we we've got the what the governor wants and then we have our school policies but this is our what it what's written here has no difference for high school and I feel like high school needs to have there we need to have a a a really um detailed discussion on what we want to do going forward because I've had um multiple um correspondence, one saying one thing and one
031saying another thing and even what went out to everybody was not very clear and so I don't know what we want to do about that but um the specifically the high school um you know bell to bell might look a little bit different with an open campus policy and what we want to do with that there is provision personal drug prices can be used when students are not on school grounds provision open campus. >> So, do we want to only have them off campus or some kids can't leave campus is like something where they can have it on campus with our own school making that provision? I that's just a discussion. >> I like that you brought that up because another district about third when they did talk about lunch time. I don't know. I
032kind of felt like this policy was thrown together when it known about it for a while. >> Right. >> And I also agree that I don't focus on this policy as concern. >> Anybody else have any comments? >> So, can we have open with other people talking or is it just >> Well, it sound it sounds as if just to clarify that there's some discrepancy in what you're reading in the presented policy as suggested from OSBA to meet the the guidance in the the law. There's some discrepancy between this and what you've heard is put into practice. And so I think it sounds like we need to ensure that our practices in the high school, the rules that are in place match the policy that would be asking the board >> and to discuss the
033policy. >> Okay. So where do we go from here? We have some concerns apparently like can we modify the the policy so that it comes back form that addresses the issues. We um based on recent well one suggestion based on recent events as we started to believe we may have free sometime during a work session on September 18th and would September 18th perhaps be a good time to revisit this as a group >> and then we could consider that a first read if we're ready we could bring it back for a second read at the next board meeting so we could have it adopted by October 31st. just be if we're staff >> I was just going to say should we have people especially the schools see what it looks like how what the challenges
034are working >> we're excited >> I know I understand that's great okay so um we'll we'll discuss it more at the next uh work session and we'll invite people would want to discuss it staff. See, but that was the only read. The other one was the uh the directory that just the first we'll have an opportunity to talk about later, >> right? the person the personal electronic devices we're kind of we're kind of on a timeline but I think it's great that we have this opportunity to if there is some reason that that you get into this other policy and at the next meeting you don't feel comfortable at a second read passing it then we'll just pull it and we'll have a conversation about that >> all right next anything else uh the second
035re uh policy update. What's we need to take action up? Um I'll make a motion um to approve um the policies for the second update um of one small um change of page 139, the grading system policy which was a mission of semester and and so we could um fix that by move to approve that. >> I think we have a motion. We got a second. Any further discussion? >> All in favor say I. >> Any opposed? Did you next the complaint submitted by start before us to discuss the following slavery? discussion. >> It seemed to have been resolved. >> So I don't know what the blank would be now. >> We have three choices. We can uh take no action. We can schedule a hearing where people are going to or we can hire
036someone third party investor. Well, since it's been resolved, I see why I vote for no action. I take action on a motion. >> Second. Any further discussion? >> Okay, fair enough. >> Correct. >> Yes. same people. >> All in favor say I. >> I. >> Any oppose? >> Item 13, [Music] equity committee designation. South PSD belonging committee act. Try to apply that. should be page. I suppose this Oregon school districts are required to appoint an equity committee by September 15, 205. the south coast PSP and regional districts to combine our resources to create a regional equity team which will have members who represent North Ben school district. Action requested is to uh for the board to take action to identify the south PS regional and loging committee as our equity. Any discussion on this? >>
037Yeah. Um, first off, I I mean, I realize it's the laws, so there's nothing we can do about that here, even though uh there's debates between what federal and state has to say in this case. That equity committee to me, it's not saying, okay, what exactly are you committing? I there's nothing that I've seen that uh lays that out. Plus, I personally think it's just another way to u use verbage for dei. >> Any further? >> I can add um to Carol um to your to your to your questions 329711. >> OS 329711 provides some of the definitions to what you were just asking about in in other words the the committee and and South Coast ESD is is what they're looking to do is where each district has a requirement. We we also have
038many small districts and there's a lot of initiative and a lot of pressure placed on school districts right now in many different levels. And so what South Coast BSD is going to do is do a a regional committee that meets their requirement for the local districts that want to participate so they can take some of that workload off of us. And what that committee does is they serve as an advisory committee. So, they'll advise the board, they'll advise superintendent on um essentially the impacts of decisions and how they may negatively affect um student groups and populations that may be overlooked. Um when we when we reviewed um when we reviewed the SIA plan, for example, the integrated guidance last spring, um there there were questions about equity and and I I recognize that the board
039may had some questions about the way some of those might have been worded. So what we did is we looked at equity more in terms of inclusive excellence. and and by inclusive excellence, I define that as sort giving each learner the specific tools and and attention they need to be successful, recognizing that success is defined differently for every student. So when when we as a district are looking at what does this committee mean for us, it means how are we going to look at meeting the needs of all students and as decisions are made regarding funding or policies that are put into place and and rules that are putting in place. Are there things that we're just overlooking? And if there are this advisory committee exists in order to bring that to our attention so
040that so that we just have another set of eyes on some of the decisions we're making which is really the purpose of it and as stated it is a law. So, if we did not um if if this wasn't presented before us, would we need to have our own appointed um committee here in North Dakota? >> And they're not making decisions. >> They are making >> they're advisory. They are advisory. >> Go ahead. Um, so just to make sure I understood correctly, this is a committee that would essentially gather information and data and then based on that data give us advice on how to help or protect children that are in certain groups that maybe make it uh more challenging them to the learning environment, the curriculum or or whatever those needs are. So that
041that's correct, >> right? >> Okay. Yeah. Um, well, I love that. I think that's a great tool. Um, I think that anything that we can do to gather data to help us make decisions, if we gather data and it's like, oh, look, we're doing a great job, right? Super love that. Um, but I would love to feel more confident that we don't have children falling through the cracks and that every child has the same opportunity to learn and receive a good education, and thrive. So, um, I'm excited to learn more about this. Absolutely. And when we talked about it as a leadership team, um we did feel that teaming with ESD provides just a more comprehensive uh team to support us in that process. >> Do I have a motion? I move to approve this
042as close to education as the regional dignity and belonging committee at the equity committee that represent the event. Any further discussions? Call for the vote. All in favor say I. >> Any oppos? All right. Comments. Comments. Yeah, I did. Before we get into board comments, I want to go back to agenda item number one and that is with the resation of superintendent. Uh we need to appoint an acting supervisor, superintendent. Um and u we have a prior is the assistant superintendent, but we need to back beyond that make an active superintendent. So, do I have a motion to appoint Brian or anyone else as the acting superintendent? >> Superintendent. >> Any discussion? >> No. Acting with this? We're not going >> Yeah. >> acting in a room. Okay. Well, I just >> Sure. Absolutely. >>
043Well, Tim hasn't been doing anything else, so >> and any other all say I >> Any oppose? And I'm going back to board comments 14. Any morning comments? >> Yes. Now, we What are we doing now next? are be putting out a notification that there's an opening and people who want to apply. >> We will be talking about all of that. It's you know very >> so I think we'll district attorney and us >> um I just wanted to again say thank you to everyone who has come and spoken to us today and just a reminder to anyone who may be watching this later um we want to hear from you. Um, and I know that, you know, we've had individuals that reach out to one of us who they're comfortable with, then that's great.
044If if you have an issue and you are feel comfortable reaching out to each one of us as individuals, not as a group, to express your concerns or suggestions, we want to hear that from you. And because if we don't have that information, we don't know what the needs are and we can't act on assumptions or rumors or anything. We have to have firsthand accounts, which mean we want to hear from you. So, I just wanted to remind the public that they can email us, they can call us, and that's how we can be made aware of of situations to help ideally get those things resolved. >> Fair enough. Any other thoughts? >> And on that same line, I would say I don't just want to hear when you have a complaint or an issue.
045I'd love to hear the good stuff. So, >> uh, two things I'd like to point out is one, um, I know we talked about this already, but thank you, Darl, for sleeping at the high school. That was awesome. And also um Mr. Nichols is here and he was nationally recognized in the creativity launches the future initiative and >> but he was able to get $1,000 for the Crayola supplies and go and so that's pretty amazing. We have some great folks in our district. >> Yes. Thank you. U little comment I wanted to make is um sometimes there's confusion about what the board does and what the board doesn't do when it comes to the budget. If anybody uh actually looks at our budget, there's no line item for music or English or mathematics. They're they're
046much bigger categories.
