003me know okay Ser open your MTH thank you all right well thank you for the opportunity to speak in front of you today my name is Neil Jensen and my wife and I have four students currently in schools in The District Two at the middle school and two at hillross elementary um in addition to that my wife and I are both also alumni K through 12 from the Northbend school district and then we headed off to University and decided we wanted to move back home after working in our careers for a while to raise our kids here so our kids have started kindergarten and gone up so we just recently attended a tag meeting in January and it started our family thinking about how the schools could better serve our children as well as other

004high achieving students in the district we do listen to Schoolboard meetings and did hear in recent meetings um some primary goals for the district and those would be performance and student behavior um what has been done in the past often in schools was tracking and tracking is placing students in classrooms based on demonstrated achievement um the new kind of model cuz that we've gotten away from the tracking um at least in elementary schools middle schools and high schools still do tracking um clustering so small groups of students 3 to seven in the classroom are instructed in higher level Concepts after they finished their work and that is teacher-led it's not just sitting them in front of a computer screen which is kind of what happens currently at the elementary school level um I did read

005um a lot of research papers and when I say a lot I read 10 research papers to me that's a lot in social sciences um studies in general and there is a good paper um from somebody out of San Diego a grad student PhD candidate where they looked at all the research that have been done um Studies have shown that tracking does increase test scores for higher achieving students while showing little to no positive or negative effect for lower achieving students St a common theme of the tracking being thought of negatively was social impacts on Lower achieving students and this is where bias can often creep into social science studies it's very hard to control for that when you're polling people um we feel as parents the pendulum has gone too far in propping up

006equity and outcomes and not enough focus on equality of opportunity in regards to student Behavior the Middle School my two students report multiple daily disruptions in all the classes except there are hardly any disruptions in the accelerated math classes that they are in um disruptions are ongoing and frequently the same students over and over at Hillcrest my two students are there frequent disturbances including shouting hitting touching invading personal space and disregarding teachers directions it this again is most often the same kids over and over again and I don't put this primarily on the teachers at all um we have a rough area and um home lives are pretty difficult for a lot of kids in our district so in conclusion we feel um we have done a good job of keeping doors open for those

007that struggle but we have not we have done a poor job of opening doors for those that succeed thank you he we have Willam M thank you city of Northbend uh board members and the general public uh I am a veteran citizen of the United States and a resident of Oregon have been since 2010 uh my name is William and uh with con tional principles I am here and to address uh kindergarten through 12th grade and then through all of our universities in cooperation with universities worldwide continental and domestic uh and that is that we bring back paper and we bring in building trade schools teach pupils and students uh when they're at the age with their cognitive uh social intellectual uh skills uh that they learn how to build things bring in the Arts

012because that's why our town is the way it is is because we have a major economic Gap where you guys all have a great paycheck and the rest of them are floting Downstream failing I can't stand here as a loving human being today and tell you that I'm okay with all their failure I can't tell you A lot of them are choosing the their failure those aren't the ones to help and it's too late we need to get them when they are with Mr Johnston and with whoever you're well they have a new one this year um and we need to get them before they get to Mr Davidson at the middle school because it's too late uh they're already they're already drowning um montor education tells you that if you have a box of

013blocks and some crayons your child's going to succeed so when my husband got hurt on the job we made over 150k a year we went into a solar RB and were ticketed and abused by our local police for five years I asked for my uh mckin vento specialist at a time that I very much needed it sir I very much needed the help for my five beautiful children that I'm standing here today for I have a kindergartener that failed in the fall because her mommy didn't get a walker to class I'm here today for Tobin Joy fagles her name means God is good Joy she really wants to be in kindergarten but she wants me to walk her there I apologize for any misunderstanding on my side of why you why I needed my mckin

014mental specialist I want to be there or my children more than any other parent in this town except for these ones that are here but I I didn't want to come after falling off of a cliff because I was on a pain level up here where I didn't want to come in here and cry or be disrespectful um I've been through the therapy and the work and I've taken all the steps and done the action every single day to be here to ask you if you could please serve with all respect to you and everything that you're doing um allow me to walk my child at us allow me to be there for my children thank you thank you for your time thank you m yes yes sir our last public speaker Sarah Ben good

015evening everybody uh my name is Sarah Ben I have three kids in the district one at each school elementary middle and high school my oldest son is autistic and is in Mr Ben yester's class um a group of us parents got together and we've been kind of talking about a multitude of different subjects so I'm actually here representing more than just myself and some of these subjects I'm going to go as quickly as I can because there's a lot to cover the comment that I did mention is um on that card is about this comment period I would like to recommend that this comment period Republic moved to the end of the meeting so if we have anything um that we want to say about the actual meeting itself we can do so at that

016meeting because whatever you guys discuss after this point of course we won't be able to speak to that until the next meeting so it would make sense to move that all right the topics that um parents would like to discuss is the sports Grade Rules if the sixth grade grades don't matter to sports why is sixth grade at the middle school rule is applied in seventh grade not sixth grade why two harassment and bullying policy um there was an incident caught on video a student uh came out behind another student kicked slapped them in the face there's a punishment contract um what is the current policy for harassment and bullying um how is it applied how is it monitored followed up um what is the accountability of the Northbend School District on how this is

017this situation was handled as well as followed up on and the oversight um to ensure that the positive changes are in fact effective um licensed educators indirectly or or directly not adhering to students 504 IEP plans students with said plans not receiving accessible services in a fair or timely manner um students are disciplined um when using let's say their calculator um and and receiving detention for being caught those are examples um of those situations um uh communication student performance schoolwork and test is thrown away it's not brought home to review to see where the child needs extra help in a subject so apparently the parent view and or lack of communication between teacher and parent there's some sort of a disconnect so some students are falling be you know in the cracks there um most

018importantly and one of the reasons I was here is because of um an employee that was intoxicated at a uh school dance and there was an investigation um the employee was on administrative leave and they came back but my son was directly questioned but then I heard nothing and I had to actually roach the subject um with the principal instead of actually hearing something about that situation um what are the uh impacts of the federal changes that you guys know about yet with I'm sure there's a lot of uncertainty that's coming down the pike um and then what happened to this District when we moved here three years ago I'm an Oregon native it was 8 out of 10 Great Schools now it's at three thank you very make think that ends public participation on

019to agenda item five Communications 5A board reports and communication okay by the stent representatives to the board High School Representatives Ellie barrier and Dwayne Parker thank you for having us uh can I just start one okay well uh to start off North Ben high school has made history in the last week with uh senior K kalana mizuchi being the the first girl to win a state a state championship and she pinned her opponent in the third round winning her State and fellow teammate Rowan Hampton got fifth place in state and for uh spring Sports this past week we currently have 186 students signed up to participate in the spring 25 in girls flag football 25 uh oh 10 boys for voice volleyball and the rester track uh the these new emerging activities for the AA

025and it we had a really positive conversation with Boomer Wright we just really appreciated um um the things he had to say one of the things that he mentioned is that he's working on writing some legislation uh that will address um tier three behaviors in the classroom and so it's just really nice to have someone that um has our perspective but sitting on that side of the of the fence I guess you could say um some of the legislation that we were um encouraging uh was to raise the funding cap for special ed um and also for pay parody for part-time College uh Community College educator but of course that doesn't affect you was just something that um collectively we were we were addressing um bitty Bulldogs the a second classroom at North Bay has

026now opened um sadly the new teacher is um uh Kathy Greg who was like a dedicated sub at at Hill Crest so we're all sad to sleep see her leave but we know that she's going to find a wonderful new family at North Bay and she's really excited about that new chapter and in her life so I know that's going to be real positive for everybody um North Bay waterfall Clinic has also hired a counselor to help work with students that are attending school there um so that's a real positive thing um at the middle school students that have a 3.0 GPA or higher have recently um enjoyed a ski trip as like a a reward um there have been a significant number of absences both on students and as well as staff because of

027of illnesses and so that's made you know covering content a little difficult and of course finding Subs has continue to be difficult um but um teachers are covering uh during their prep period covering for other teachers and um making it making it work but um they do feel a little spread thin um attendance at the uh high school has also been a concern um at Bridges one of the things that they've done is they um have um their students have planned like a like a reward uh Trip To The River and the students have raised monies for that um and I guess 20 students will be able to attend they also have a marine biology field trip planned soon um and there's been a lot of really exciting events happening at the at the high

028school um the high school Representatives talked about wrestling and and swimming um but also coming up this Tuesday if I remember correctly there is a dance showcase at Northbend high school for for not only the high school dance uh students but also Middle School dance students so I think it starts at 7:00 and costs I think $10 so hopefully you can um come out and and support the the dancers um um let's see um the um Association we're preparing and looking forward to um sitting down with the administration next week to begin negotiating a new contract so that's kind of exciting this be my first time doing that mat so um any who um I don't have the extra mile presentation today because I'm going to look right the camera you all need to nominate

029one another so that I can recognize your work and thereby bring it to them I do know that those who have been nominated in the past myself included have really appreciated the handwritten thank you note that you all send that is a nice little surprise so well now it's not a surprise but anyway I know that's been very very well appreciated because several excuse me several people have come to me and said I wasn't expecting that and and then they in fact didn't even know maybe that they were recognized but um they um were informed because someone said oh congratulations I saw you on the um the recording and they're like wait what so anyhoo it's a very cool thing so keep nominating each other classified and certified both anyway thank you so very much

030so thanks for mentioning you went to Salem something I mean I've never done that to se you saw Boomer and Dick Anderson yeah and he was the representative for the the North Coast so my group was a blend or a mix of Educators from around the state and so dick and Dick Anderson and we were right was two that represented our area third so back in July 20233 when we got our new superintendent the board sat down with him and we developed two goals academic achievement and student behavior and student Behavior was on there because of its impact on teacher job satisfaction and retention and the huge impact it had on the other students academic achievement tying into what Mr Neil Jensen said earlier so um in Oregon if if any of you work in

031system I'm sure you have it's very hard to change the system and so Boomer Wright is trying to do that with his bill that he's working on and really it it revolves around he believes and and I believe this too that every student deserves an educ quality education in org and no one or two students in those classrooms should be acting up virtually all the time and depriving the other students so Boomer uh came here several months ago and talked to administrators and teachers and got some input and feedback so he could have some data to carry forward in this legislation so I hope he's successful when he brings that out and be a great thing to support so but it's part of changing the system and it is a long and omous way to

032go so anyway thank you for bringing that up about okay 5 D superintendent report then SW my report report the a couple highlights from strategic planning toare session this Friday this Friday the first time that the structional team as well as theard team come together all one we had a chance ear prototype of what our will look like and kind through some of those things and so that team those two teams chance to see that on Friday and then from 130 3:30 scho then just reminder that work session in March they will they we'll have presentation for you and the board will have opportunity to go through the entire document and that will be your work session to essentially prepare for next month when you'll have the opportunity to adopt that St um legislative session

033you mentioned that every Friday I'm a part of all the superintendents who are part of the Coalition Oregan School administrators posted as a zoom meeting they an update as to what's happening in the legislature itself a lot of activity most of the time the biggest issue on the table conversation where might fall in terms of financing we won't know that until probably maybe June terms of have that finalized so so we just kind of continue to move forward other kind of policy bills that um are coming up there's lots of them some of them that we export others we not necessarily support make school more difficult not not not not greas the slide slide hard slide so you'll hear a lot of things that come out question really becomes which bills have legs and which

034bills don't the ones that do are the ones we're kind of locking into there's lots of Fringe bills that get written but just sort of they get some they get impress and and they die in committee somewhere so that's kind of what happens the one thing that has a lot of likes to it and that is the conversation around special education Oregon has for decades at a cap of 11% what that means for everybody in the room is that we get additional funding for all the SP students we have up to 11% of our total student body population and so any students that are that are more than 11% throughout the state of Oregon they don't get any additional funding for those students and I believe our last number is we're at about 18% sted

035rate in our district which means that we get an additional we additional funds for up to 11% of those there's 7% of our kids that that are in special education at that we don't get any ex fund so one of the things that's happening at state that our state legislators seem to be hearing this time is that that 11% cap that was established decades ago is not a at the time that it was established 11% actually was the and that's why that was created but but now the average around the state is way higher than so so the key though is that we're trying to make sure that they don't just raise the C but they add additional funding to support because if we just ra the C then you're dividing the same P differ

036you would anyway comp so um it'll be interesting to see where that plays out but we really do expect something to happen in that area we actually do expect some funding to go that direction that concept has been very well received on really on both sides of the AIS um we already talked about the tournament the kids did it's fun to have that on um Athletics we talk about spring bre just reminder spring break is coming up the lights start to see the end of the year we're getting spring break so before we meet again in terms of our regular meeting we have spring break and we'll be in the third trimester for the midth science textbooks ad options coming up and so Ro Dana will kind leave charge for for that just going to

037get that on your radar probably adoption in May or June it's not as it's not as uous when you do science textbook adoption there's were Publishers out there unlike adop something like reading at the middle school the elementary and math Elementary um it's it's it just is a more simple process because you have your typically you have your people who really know science are and there's not as many Publishers trying to S science it seems like is so that'll be a little more stream seen the last couple adoption last thing I want to mention is stand up today today we know the high school has been a part of their accreditation process they're getting re accredited um and they got the work today that their accreditations approved they'll get a final report but they got

038news today that they continue to Beed as very good agenda item six action consent agenda items is there a motion to approve the action consent agenda items second there's a motion from Na and a second by Mary any discussion we shall vote and we will have a a roll call V we'll start with Dallas I or nay a or n Carol I for Jim I for Nathan I Michelle I I okay seven eyes is that the way we need to do it from now yeah please it's a not a bad idea just in case they had see feels a little awward it's because I'm sure everyone here can tell we're now trained I thought that was so smooth okay thank you for that all right uh moving on agenda item seven resolution classified Employee Appreciation

039action and this is page 13 in a board packet and if I could get a board member to read that entire document [Music] yes text of resolution 20256 whereas the education of Youth is essential to the future of our community State country and world and whereas classified employees are the backbone of our public education system and whereas classified employee work directly with students Educators parents volunteers business partners and community members and whereas classified employees support the smooth operation of offices the safety and maintenance of buildings and property and the Safe Transportation Healthy nutrition and direct instruction of students and whereas our community depends upon trusts classified uh employees to serve students and whereas classified employees with their divers talents and true dedication nurture students through their school years now therefore be it resolved that the

045um there's some different terminology here you may not be used to so I just wanted to make sure you had not you ask questions if you if you had any and essentially what we're saying is we're going we have some teachers in probationary status so we want to approve them to step up in probationary status to the next year or into contract status and also renew contract status of the the remaining people listed um there are a few um people that have temporary contracts and so the the terminology there is with a temporary contract they're non renewed and they're reposted um based on District need year to year so the terminology there is non-renewed without prejudice meaning that that person doesn't have to say they received a non-renewal when they go out and apply for

046other jobs um because it's not to their it's not their fault it's just that they had a temporary position I to R the teachers administr as Nathan had a motion and the second was married yes okay I'll restate motion I move to renew SL non renew the teachers and administrators as listed any discussion I I have one question just temporary and um according to our collective bargaining agreement um if a position is filled after the school year starts it's automatically a temporary position and then um if the position is filled by somebody who's retired it's also considered temporary because they want to repost the position the following year to allow someone who's non-retired an opportunity for that job so some are every year continuing to be temporary though um it depends on if if if

047it's a position filled by a retire a retired person it could be temporary year to year um because of the contract we said we would basically repost it um or if it's just filled after the school year starts then ideally no ideally they wouldn't be temporary here to you any other questions have a v okay agenda item 11 approval of the 2025 2026 North School District semester calendar action last month you approved moving next year from trimester calar for the to a semester calendar and that meant that the adoped calendar the adoped last 25 26 years became boy which means that we need we need to have you adopt a new calendar so the calendar committee met at a prototype and good time some parts to it and so what we presented to you is
