001If there is no descent from the board members present for ordinary vice statute or R1 192 650, this meeting is being video recorded and will be posted on the Winston Hillard School District website. Start off with the pledge of allegiance. >> I pledge aliance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands. One nation under we have everyone from present. So we have a quorum. I want to start off with honoring retirees. >> Yeah. each year and we have folks that are able to retire and have spent a lot of a lot of time, a lot of effort, a lot of energy um serving our kids and our community and we appreciate that very much. I'm gonna actually start with Joanne because I see her here. Joanne,
002you want to >> stand up? Yeah. Joanne automated That right. 28 years. >> 28. >> That all here mentioned Hillary. >> Yes. >> Yeah. >> 28. >> That doesn't count. So Joanne, she was at Brockway as a regular education teacher and then she's been an art teacher at Douglas High School for how many years now? >> Probably seven, I'm not sure. I haven't. Yeah. So I started at McGovern in second grade and then when they built uh Brock White I went over there and taught kindergarten and first grade for lots of years and um ended up at high school. Loved everywhere I was. Yeah. very uh grateful to have the opportunity to work with that community. >> Thank you. Thank you, Joanna. >> Yeah. Give Joy, anything you'd like to say? I would say that
003my wife is I would give her the not only the teacher of the year, teacher of the decade, but wife of the decade. She raised four kids being 3,000 miles from New York where she's from. And that's no easy task. A lot of people couldn't handle that. My wife did. She's She's such a trooper. You >> Yeah. I mean, she's amazing. >> Thank you, J. >> Yeah, you were very fortunate to have her here. >> Grateful for your service. >> Thank you. >> Wishing you the best in retirement. >> Thank you. I can't wait. We do have school tomorrow. >> This is Christy. >> Christie, she's the elementary teacher over in Mason building. You like to tell Lisa 26 years as well, I think. Believe. All industrial. Yes, I do know she started at Riverside.
004So, um and has been in kindergarten, first grade, and preschool at the side. >> Yes, we want to thank Christie. If you see Christie or know Christie, thank her for her service to the Del Mar you want to grab this for her. >> Her staff will be fil. >> Thank you. And then Karen Turner was also she's a teacher up at um she helped us out. She's been in the district for five years. Kind of came into the district around COVID and then she's been at the high school for the for for the last five years and she's also retired as an English teacher from move on to superintendent academic award. Start with start. >> Yeah, let's go Douglas High School first up. Um from Douglas High School is Casey. Casey, you want to come
005up and introduce the superintendent academic award winner? >> Absolute. Thank you. >> Yeah. Let me give you this too. Thanks. >> Yeah, you're welcome. >> As teachers, we try to try our best to take a positive impact or make a positive impact on the lives of our students. We try to inspire them to step out of their comfort zone to try new things and have experiences that they may have never considered. But every so often, one of those students returns the favor. About 5 years ago, I was coaching basketball and minding my own business when I received a phone call from someone that I've admired and respected since the fifth grade. He said, "If you don't find a soccer coach at the high school, my kid has to go to Roseber and neither of us
006want that. Uh he was right. I had already penciled his daughter in as my point guard of the future and Mr. Jones and I started searching immediately high and low for a qualified candidate. When none materialized the school went with the next best option, me and that's how tonight's superintendent award winner and I first started working together. So Peterson is the daughter of Trish and Gio Person. You got nothing. You can follow along that. That's his copy. I told uh I told Gio before I came in that um that I'm running out of opportunity to say nice things about this kid and um boy, I'm going to miss him. Sas currently has a 3.91 GPA and is ranked number nine in her class and will graduate in just a few short days. When I think
007of the qualities that should best embody a member of Trojan nation, SA exhibit each one. She's hardworking. She has a strong sense of right and wrong. She's incredibly loyal and cares about those around her. But most of all, she is fearless. Some people think that being fearless means having no fear, but that's not true. Being fearless means acknowledging your anxieties and choosing to take action and move forward anyway. I've spent the last four years watching SA do just this. Once when she was a freshman, she was playing soccer in our co-ed co-ed soccer team in the boys league and she was run over by a player about three times her size. He was an exchange student from Italy um who had he been a local would have been playing linebacker on the American football field.
008SA's entire backline was ready to fight, but she calmly told him that she'd handle it. Don't worry. Soon enough, the offending student was being held out of the mud by Sa. She still insists that he slipped and she has no idea how he got knocked down. But we all learned a few lessons that day. One about leverage in physics and another about how fearless person was. That same fearlessness was on display at the beginning of this school year. SA ran for ASB president and she won. Part of her duties include giving the monthly schoolboard report and she's here tonight giving her last one. The first one in September and she was nervous, but she didn't hesitate. She squared her shoulders and took a big deep breath and did just like she always did. Showed up
009and did her job. The not plans to be a nurse. And as a guy who plans on getting older here, I take great comfort in that knowledge because if I'm if I'm ever stretched into the ER and SA sees her old coach lying there, I know that I'm in good hands. She may be nervous. She may be anxious, but I know she'll take a deep breath, square shoulders, and do her job just like always. The Winston Dillard School District is fortunate to have Sonop as a student. I consider myself fortunate to have taught and coached her. She leaves the school better than she founded. I would like to thank Trish and Gio for raising her so well. And I would like to thank SA for being such a great example to those around her. Congratulations
010Lon Person for winning the superintendent award. It is with great pride that we recognize Emerson Buucy, son of Benjamin and Stephanie Buucy for his exceptional attitude, consistent effort and positive influence in the culture is a pleasant and cheerful student who demonstrates a genuine interest in learning and dedication to personal growth. Additionally, his strong moral compass not only guides him to success, but it enacts a positive change in those around him. What sets Emerson apart is his dedication to truly mastering the skills required of him. Emerson is not satisfied by merely going through the motions, but instead thinks deeply and carefully about coursework. In addition to demonstrating great academic skills, Emerson frequently saves after class to clean and sure ensure Chromebooks are charging and help others except for my class because he always leaves early to
011go to bed. Not only does he exhibit his dedication to excellence in the classroom, but also in the school in the school band and on the basketball court. Emerson's reliability, kindness, and work ethic make him a role model for others. He embodies the values of perseverance, integrity, and community that we've strived to cultivate at Winston Middle School. Congratulations, Emerson, on this well-deserved recognition. Sincerely, your eighth grade teachers. Good evening members of the board and community. I'm SA Person with the DHS student report. As the school year comes to a close, students and staff have had many reasons to celebrate the success, leadership, and accomplishments that have made this year unforgettable. One of the highlights of this month was the night of excellence where DHS staff, students, families, and community members gathered to recognize the hard
012work and achievements of students across many programs. My very own soccer coach, culinary teacher, and leadership teacher one teacher a year and deserve nothing less. Culinary students helped make the evening even more special by preparing and serving foods from around the world, giving guests the opportunity to experience a variety of cultures through delicious dishes and creative presentations. Leadership students also spent time giving back to the community by helping at Broadway Elementary's end of the year field day. From organizing games to encouraging younger students throughout the day, the leadership class demonstrated teamwork, positivity, and school spirit while helping create lasting memories for Broadway youth. Spring athletics have also brought exciting accomplishments. 13 track and field athletes have qualified for state and will complete compete in nine different events. Their dedication, hard work, and determination throughout the
013season have earned them the opportunity to represent the school at the state level. The baseball team has also had a strong season and successfully earned a spot in the playoffs. Their teamwork and perseverance have helped them reach this exciting point in the season, and the school community is proud to cheer them on. Meanwhile, the senior class is preparing for several important milestones. Seniors will celebrate their final day of school on June 3rd before walking across the stage at graduation on June 5th. As graduation approaches, students, staff, and families are reflecting on the memories, friendships, and accomplishments that have shaped the class of 2026. With celebrations, achievements, and exciting opportunities happening across the school, the end of the year has been a wonderful reminder of the talent, leadership, and spirit that makes this school community so
014special. It has been so amazing serving as the ASB president this year and sharing all of the amazing moments that have happened in the school. Thank you all for everything that you have done, and hopefully I'll see you at graduation. Great job here. Appreciate it. >> So, right now we'll take a break for any of you who do not want to stay for the boring part. Thank you all. >> Yeah. Emily, do you have a special comment? I'm not Uh bringing people out to the passport. So then I just superintendent report about this extensively. Yeah, we have been planning enrollment there. Um, we're down to two 1220. So, back in January went from 1260 down to the 1230s. Maintain that for 3 months and then we just saw a little bit of a dip again.
015And so 1220 declining um we will continue to address that issue and do everything we can in support of and increasing or maintaining student enrollment. Any questions? Student enrollment specific Um there's a lot u we have yeah there's a lot. So I'll let these folks speak to other buildings on in the district as we move forward for director move forward items of discussion. Uh Winston Dillard School District Elementary School recap 202526 Rockway Elementary. >> Look at that. >> Was there an order? >> You know how many times I put my password in and popped right up. >> The star is aligned right there. >> I don't know. Good right here. Okay. take the train. Uh we uh the three of us have put some slides together to share a little bit about um uh things
016we've worked on and accomplished throughout the year and then a few areas of uh that we want to work towards for next year. So, um I'm going to be highlighting four different areas that we've been working on throughout the school year. Um student behavior supports and skill building um for students collaboration and curriculum planning, family and community engagement and IIA training and support. So, um, with, uh, actually a schoolwide approach, but also, um, in coordination with our dean of students and our CDS, um, we've worked really hard to develop consistent and clear communications with families about PE behaviors. And really what that, um, equates to is that consistent information. So when things are happening, being very clear about what's happening and how we're approaching that and supporting our students to help improve that behavior. Um
017we're and in doing that we're creating support plans um that facilitate that skill building this child need and support for the classroom so learning can happen in those classrooms. So trying to help support that student and get them back into the classroom if they do need to leave to take a break or to reregulate um which then hopefully leads to less disruption during that instruction and gets them back into the classroom either so they're they are missing and then um be able to teach those social emotional supports and strategies that our kids are coming to our um school lacking um and then making what we are teaching them available throughout the school. So in the classrooms, in the cafeteria, during their special um so whatever strategies they've been taught and chosen to use um are
018appropriate and available to them. So for example, hopefully less alopment um and that doesn't mean that we're sending kids off and get married. it's actually leading to classroom building um and less disruption to classroom. Um we have worked um a lot with PLC's and um collaboration throughout the district and in our buildings um and a focus on curriculum and planning. So, you've heard us talk a few times about Stanford Children um and the group that we're working with um Dana Neringburgg specifically um uh has been our coach. I was call principal coach. Um and one of my um and I'll talk a little bit later about it but what I've really enjoyed the most is the work with my colleagues um understanding what they are doing in their building and how uh I can support
019that and also learn from that and um react to my building. Um we've provided instructional assistant training um around engagement and best practices alignment between our reading wonders program and simplified writing. Emily might talk about that too and Jana um continued intervention and data review. So um we have brought in a new learning specialist that comes to us with lots of experience and she's really helped um our data teams work together build a structure and help make good decisions about reading instruction. and she has also provided professional development along with Crystal, our early literacy coach um and practicing partn so professional development and practice in that area. So how we engage students, how we get them thinking and motivated um about their learning maybe. Okay. Um also we have um included in our schedule, our
020schoolwide schedule time for small group u math workshop and what uh fruit salad. So you've maybe heard all of those terms really what it comes down to is math group and um small group and individualized instruction. So, designated time within our schedule, training and planning, and just that consistency throughout our building um of all classrooms doing that. We also have had some new intervention curriculum and training around that curriculum. Again, um this is where I'm bringing back up that um collaboration. Um but we've had our um I called it building or district focused instructional classroom walk walkthroughs as an elementary team. So, um, we talk about what our building focus is and what we want to look at in our classrooms together and then go in with guidance from Dana and using um her instructional
021rubric and look at um what we're finding in classrooms and what we see, what's going well and what might be some areas that we want to try some new things in. And then we also have had protected PLC work sessions by grade level at Brockway focused on reading and writing and then also on math and those happen um twice a month. So every other week one is reading and writing and one is math. We also um have had very consistent feedback and training. So, we have weekly meetings um information is distributed to those instructors about their groups, their student reading groups and um what they need to focus on and um what instructional strategies need to be used to help fill in those gaps or teach those skills. Um we also have al supported math
022instruction during that um fruit salad or workshop time with instructional support for details um specifically to math and that is always a struggle when we spend a lot of focus on reading how to get that support in math as well and we have um I feel like improved upon that a lot this Um I don't did it too. >> I don't know. >> No. Okay. >> Okay. Now it might the other way. >> Uh so another big focus has been around family and community engagement. Um so we uh have started up our Looster Club. Again it is small but mighty. Here are a few things that we've done. um through our booster club. So, we had a a super successful family dance. We had a craft night with Santa. Unfortunately, I didn't have a picture
023handy of Santa. We did a trunk or treat. Um I'm hoping we can coordinate with our community trunk or treat next year to help build that. Um and then we got a new mascot that our school named CVY. And uh in the top picture that's uh CVY's first experience or it his welcome to Brockway. And then um the bottom picture is celebrity CVY at art night in a jacket and tie. He was very um prepared for our event. Um I didn't have a photo booth. We were kind of wondering what are we going to do for a photo booth. I did not need that with either. And those of you that know Amy, she is heavy and um uh I guess wears that with pride. Um she loves to come. Um also through our title
024one funds, we have put on um art night and our math night. Math night was amazing. Um we were able to give away um math focused games for every family that attended. um well attended by our teachers and um students and it was really fun to watch families interacting with their children and working on math skills without kids hardly knowing that that's what they were doing. Um and then we also had um information to send home with families uh later uh the next day every student went home. So, even if they weren't able to come to the event, which sometimes those evening events are hard for families to come to, they um went home with dice and um a collection of activities to use that dice with um at home and also that information from
025families about math and math instruction. Just a couple more slides. Sorry, my time is far. Um, I just wanted to talk briefly about preschool um and how uh important and successful it's been. Uh, we have some very great family engagement nights that um align with what we're already doing, but also specific to prek as well. Um, there is a focus on those early literacy skills, rich vocabulary and language development. um high quality instruction and social emotional learning and the interaction um between students. Um a lot of our families that don't participate in our prek or something similar really struggle with those social emotional pieces when coming to school. Um and it's also super helpful for our transition planning. We're already starting to work with our prekers and planning for next year. unique teachers that they
026potentially could have um and building those relationships to help with that transition. We've also spent a lot of time this year at Rockway working on our special education classroom and our um inclusion and collaboration. So, um there's been a great uh I don't know transformation in the um staff collaboration and how they are interacting and getting along with one another which really has spilled over into our students and student learning um and collaboration with our um general ed classroom teachers. And many of our students are pushing out into their general ed classroom a lot more than they have in the past. Um next steps some priorities for Brockway um to move to maintaining our behavior supports and skill building um and keeping those strong structures in place that we have developed and then um improve
027our direct skilled reading instruction and professional development for new and returning staff members and then also attendance improvement. So K2 attendance is one of our new um Kevin what is that? It's not an indicator but it's one of the >> it's performance growth target what they're called. >> Thank you. >> And um I would say uh early elementary students um with sickness and being new to school attendance is tricky because they are sick and they do need to be gone. But um setting up those brief um routines and I guess just philosophy that school's really important that you need to come every day even um we'd love to bore you with data but we don't have all that data fully in yet. So you have to come later. We'll save that for another. >> I
028think I am. >> You want to sit there? >> Do you guys mind if I stay here? It's working really good right here. Okay. So, um, a lot of this is going to be redundant. So, I might go a little bit quicker than Lisa did. Um at Looking Glass, we have three goals on our um continuous improvement plan for our school. And those are the goals that our whole staff gets behind. Um we talk about why these are our goals. Um how this is going to push us towards um our mission and vision as a staff, as a school. And so we wrote this plan three years ago. This plan is actually coming to an end this year. And we'll be um creating new goals next year. So when you write a school improvement plan,
029you write them for three years. Um, so this is the last year of these goals and our first goal was based on attendance and we said we want to show 93% of the average of the average daily attendance in every class and we even included our prekers um which Lisa mentioned our youngest students it is difficult to get them there 90% of the time or more um but that was really one of our goals um and then our focus goal um so we c started creating focus schools three years ago um to focus on um to really focus our efforts on those underserved groups or those groups that that really need our attention. So we wanted to decrease the amount of kiddos in our school that were chronically up. So this is what our data
030looks like as of today. So it's not the end of school yet, but it's close. Um so represents percent of regular um daily attendance at preK was 91%. That means on any given day, the average attendance in my pre-K classroom was 91%. And that's that's huge um for prek classroom. That's actually the highest we've ever had um at Looking Glass. And it continues on down. Thank you, sir, for pushing us up to to 92.8. So, we can round that up to 93. I feel pretty good about that. Um it it really looks looks pretty darn good for for our attendance. And to support that goal, um, Looking Glass has an attendance handbook. And the things that that we do from that attendance handbook is every classroom has classroom rewards that they have set up um
031to reward positive attendance. Um, they also have individual um goals for kiddos. So for some kiddos, 80% attendance, 90% attendance, that's a lot. We just need to show growth. Um, we need to show that they were here more days than they were here the year before. That's a win. If we can bring those families in and get them here on a more regular basis. Um, so kiddos have individual rewards um that they're working towards. Hey, you were here four days in a row. That's amazing. Go get some free crazy bread at Little Skeers. Um, so really encourage kiddos getting to school. Um, we have um a game we play called Third Caller. kiddos don't know this, but I strategically put that game on a day before there's going to be four attendants the next day
032and the classrooms that win know they have to be in the seat the next day to earn their price. If they're not there, they don't earn their price. So, we do that really strategic. Kids don't know that. Um, we also started sending our attendance letters home a whole lot earlier. So, we sent home a, hey, you've missed five days of school. That's a lot. Um, how can we partner with you to get you here? Um, so instead of waiting until they had 10 unexcused absences, um, we started engaging with families even who had just four days of sickness. Hey, what can we do to help get your kiddo well? Um, is it nutritional food? Is it like what can we do to get your kiddo in their seat every day? Um, we also make daily
033phone calls to kiddos that are absent. Um, and not just automated ones. um my uh attendant secretary who is also my only secretary um calls every single day every family that has a kid that's absent and says hey when weren't you here today we need to get you here tomorrow. Um we also play thank you for being in your seat today for kiddos. I'll tape little um keychains underneath particular desk just randomly walking fashion tape things on the bottom and then in my daily announcements I'll say hey it's um thank you for being in your seat today. there may be something under your desk and then they know that they have to be there to to earn that. If they're not there, that goes back in the bucket. Um, I also started schoolwide check-ins for
034attendance. So, we did a New Year's goal um where I sent a letter home to every single kiddo, gave them their current attendance and said, "Hey, you're on your way to 90% or better. Keep it up." Or, "Hey, you're not quite there yet. Let's make it a New Year's goal to get to school every day." and I added confetti in every single letter and I really thought I was going to hear about it, but I didn't as much as I thought I was going to. Um, and then I also did it at 25 days left in school. Um, this is what your attendance rate could be if you came every single day. So, right now you're at 80%, if you're here every single day, you could end at 83%. And I did some rounding up
035and rounding them down to make it look really good if they were there for the next 25 days. Um, we also added um a big social media presence because we know that's what our parents are looking at. They're looking at Facebook, they're looking at Tik Tok. Um, so to help make it important for kiddos to be there and also for parents to understand what they're missing when they're not here. Um, we added a huge social media presence and we go over fun things that have gone on. Um, we highlight attendance, we talk about registering early and all those fun things. the one in the middle, a giant bed of learning with mad doll. That's actually the least watched videos um because they're longer and they um try to engage your brain about what kids are
036learning. So, we haven't quite figured out how to get actual parent education into videos that watch. Um but we're working on it. You got to put cute kids and music in there. Um so our second goal at Looking Glass is using the district's adopted I Ready program and we wanted um an increase of 16% of our kiddos reaching their typical growth and then that focused goal is we wanted um to increase the amount of kiddos that were reaching their stretch growth. So, I already said um they market that if you meet your stretch growth for two years in a row, that's something three grade levels. Um so, if we can keep getting kiddos to meet that stretch growth, it's it's going to lessen that gap that they're seeing. So, this is where we're at right
037now today. Um my second grade class, the third one down, has only three kiddos that have tested so far. Um so, it is, you know, very new. There's there's not a lot there. kindergarten only about half of them have tested. Um but it is looking pretty good. Um for that that first row is that typical growth and that's where we wanted to see at least 61% of kiddos meeting and then that stretch growth is where we wanted to see at least 22% of kiddos meeting that stretch growth. Um so so it's looking good but a lot more data is coming like Lisa said. Um so what have we done to support that goal? Um, we have a new intervention program. It's over there on the right. It's called Kickstart. And for the first time ever,
038we're showing movement in math interventions where kiddos are starting in a math intervention and then they're exiting out. Um, and we haven't seen a lot of that in the past. If you were in a math intervention, it probably meant you were going to be in a math intervention for life. Math was always going to be something that was difficult. Um, but we're actually starting to see kiddos moving up to grade level and then exiting out of those interventions. So, that's really exciting. Um, we also purchased their it's actually a pre-scale kindergarten program to provide intervention for kindergarten students, but we thought why not just give it to our pre-K kiddos. Um, so they are using a kickstart program meant for kindergarten intervention. Um, but the idea is is that then our kinders won't need intervention
039when they enter because they already had um that program. Um, we use a lot of PLC time to look at our data. Um we had um one member of my K2 team and one member of my 34 team participate in a math cadre. Um and they worked with Laura who is a um contracted coach and um they would go meet with her talk about things that were going on in the classroom and get solutions. They look at data and then they would bring that information back to their team. And we have now implemented fruit salad um in every grade level. even prek there's a little tiny version of fruit salad. Um goal three I'll try and go faster. Sorry guys, is all about dibbles. Um we wanted to show um an increase a 25% increase
040of getting our kiddos to that core and above grade level support. So getting them into the blue and green on their dibble scores um dibbles um assesses early literacy skills and then also fluency and accuracy when you get into the upper grades three four and five. And then of course we wanted our kiddos um that were targeted that had targeted support and intervention support. We wanted them to um increase at a quicker rate because again the idea is you have an intervention support you're reaching level greater gain. Um this is where we look right now. Again, not everything is in. The right is the beginning of the year. The the left is the end of the year. And what you want to see is more green and blue. Less red, more green and blue. I
041know third grade looks sad, but it was one student in there. Um, so so it's definitely looking more green and more blue. So that's a good sign. Um, this is our star data. Again, not everybody's tested, but you want to see more green. Um, blue is considered on watch for intervention. Um, so so we're definitely getting there. That one on the right is um early literacy. So that's K12. The one on the left is 3, four, and five. And so how we work towards that goal? Working with DMs for children. Um like Lisa said, working with Dana, we do walkthroughs. We have um goals that we're working on with her. Um, our instructional assistant training has been huge. We've taught our instructional assistants this year. Um, we've coached them on how to read their own
042data in their reading group. And I actually got an email from a teacher just last week that that I'm so thankful for our instructional assistants. It gives me such peace of mind knowing that they know how to read their own data. And if something is falling or something isn't working or something doesn't look right, they're going to come right to me and say, "I'm not reaching this kid. Why?" We've also implemented this year reading group meetings where we've brought our IAS in and once every three weeks I go in at the beginning of reading group time read a story and they get to meet collaboratively and I get to bring their data from their reading group and talk about what they're seeing and talk about um engagement strategies and and strategies to better reach our
043kiddos. We've done a lot of alignment work between Wonders and School of Fire writing um continued intervention in Iowa. Continued work with partner talk which has been um a goal of all three of our buildings. We've been working towards partner talk and then one of the things that came from San Children with something called group closures. So it's up there in that top right. Every intervention reading group that ends on those different days um kiddos are asked those questions intentionally and given sentence starters modeled by the adults. um so that all kiddos on Monday in my building at least three times have been asked what was one thing you learned today and then we've let parents know that that's what they're being asked on Monday so that they can then ask that same question at
044home and then we have also as an elementary team as a district um said that we are star educators so this is our mission and vision as elementary educators um students striving as readers and that mirrors what we want our kiddos to do which is be star readers. So we can be sit tall, talk big, answer together and respect each other and teachers um actually all staff um are expected to support students striving as readers. And so what is that all impacted? Um we're going to be moving reading from one of our three goals to just maintaining. we feel like everything is in place. We're doing a good job. We're moving forward. We're going to do the same thing with attendance. We're just going to continue doing what we're doing. Keep making little sweeps. And
045our next priorities, we're going to stick with math. We know we still have a lot of work there. Um especially with those four bullets. We're going to add writing because we know from our OAP data, our kiddos can read. Writing is where they struggle. So, we need to build a lot of writing stamina. We need to um create assessments that are going to be effective for our teachers. And then our third one is going to be great um because we need our kiddos to be able to do hard things. So those are our three goals moving forward. Any questions? >> Thank you. >> Sorry about that. Oh, okay. Um, so we're coming to the end of our three-year school improvement plan. This was the first goal. Um, the government will rebuild, reinforce community, parent, and
046parent engagement. So, these are some of the things that we're doing. Um, and there's definitely more than this of those like, oh, we do that, too. We do that, too. But um this is the gist of it here and I won't go into detail about any of these but if you guys have questions. Okay. So we have an events committee meet um team. We have um our open house to kick off the year each year. Um we have different family events that we do throughout the year. Last year we had a literacy night. This year we did a a game night. Um we do a holiday arts and craft night every year. Um and then we plan on doing one in June um as a send off for the end of the year. We started
047doing a fifth grade celebration the last three years um where we invite families in to come in and um you know celebrate the fifth graders milestone of moving on to the to the middle school. Um we do a slideshow cookies and juice. Um this year we're going to do it a little differently. It'll be um a class out. So we'll have them invite families into the hall. They'll walk through and then we'll celebrate in the classrooms after. We just start student assemblies monthly um where we celebrate students and um character traits based off our character strong curriculum. We invite parents in for that. Um our parent club is does a bingo night every year. Um and we have um our conferences, our teachers are always striving to um to reach 100% of the families of
048of students on their rosters. And this year um every teacher came very close to that. Some did um actually meet with 100% of which was exciting. Parent Square has been really helpful um for us. It's been a really neat tool to communicate with parents. also a great way to to reach out um and and start talking about things before conferences too, you know, if there's any concerns or updates. Um grade level teams also have just taken initiative and started planning their own events to bring families in. Um bring them and get them involved in things that they're doing in their classrooms. Um, we've also been working on improving our social media presence um, which has been very fun and we have some um, some pretty trendy teacher at school. So, they they've been really helpful.
049And then also with outdoor schools that I just wanted to note that outdoor school has actually been a really nice way to connect with parents. And I think that um the parents that volunteer for that and when they come back it just I don't know it just seems like they get to know our our staff on another level and it's just a nice opportunity for them to get and then on the right is just next step which just bringing in more parents to our parent club um and trying to bring more parents into the classrooms um to help boost academic engagement. Not sure what that would look like yet, but just something um that I'd like us to work on. And um something that I am going to send out a parent survey um to
050and I think you kind of talked about this earlier about um you know, what is it that we're expected um to do what families expect us to do at school, you know, for and provide for their kids. And so I thought a survey to go out to families and just get some clarity about, you know, what is your big picture plan for your student? Um what are some goals that you have for them? And um and you know, what do you want to see more from u from us to get some feedback? Um so we also had a goal to improve our math and EMLA scores um by 30% in each. um and that's like schoolwide. So um over the three years and some of the pro progress we've made towards that we've also um
051been shifting what we're doing in our special education program um trying to um provide a more inclusive approach very intent and being more intentional with what we're planning and the services that we're providing for our um for our stu our students. And um it sounds like a small shift, but you know, things like that for a staff can be it can feel pretty big, especially if you're used to doing things a certain way. Um and and our team has um has really been working hard at that. Um we also uh have a climate and culture committee and an attendance committee. They do things like they work on incentives for students for attendance um try to boost engagement um in our school and there's all sorts of things that we do in that realm. Um I
052also noted on there that we've started a new schedule structure this year um that's new to our teachers and I put on there that teachers are pioneering a new um schedule structure. It's not new um it's new to us. it's new to our district and it's it's been kind of a big deal and um yeah it's been it's been exciting and a lot of work from our staff and I put there also on the right that um I just said teachers becoming core and content strong um and math model. So um we also made an intervention change where teachers are and um IAS are actually approaching intervention um they're planning and executing our intervention as a team and um we've also been working on developing our instructional practices with coaching and um Lisa and Emily
053touched on that already. Um we've talked about as a district uh professional development um that matters to teachers and trying to get them some more um professional development that's that's not just program based where they're coming in and training on our program but it's more about you know some of those effective research based practices that we're always you know talking about. Um uh we've also have some schoolwide learning opportunities, theme day, holiday rotations, expectation stations, um to get students engaged in it's still um standard based instruction um but kids get to rotate to other teachers in the building at other grade levels um and connect and so we've done that. Um and then we've also spent more time on writing instruction this year. So, um, and I'm hopeful that over the course of the next
054couple years, you'll see a positive impact on that. We have a fifth grade, um, project based science class that is really, um, doing well in the kids love. We have literature circles, book clubs, and also I wanted to know this is our third year with I Ready. So um and you know every program has its ups and downs but it really has been the tool um for teachers and looking at the data um moving forwards um we're focusing on coherence and structure and re we're going to rebuild our goals or vision mission um in the fall and then some of the things go on the bottom I won't read through everything um and then the next steps for the student success and academic performance I'm going to touch on again at the at the And
055so we can just move on. Okay. And um this is goal three. Um and that all of our students will participate in social emotional curriculum. And this is some of the ways that we infuse the curriculum into students daytoday. Um and then I also put on there some of some principles um that that um we use for just to support students socially and emotionally. So um this is a I reference this book quite a bit um when I'm talking with staff or um doing any um discussions regarding behavior support with IAS um those nine principles um that are pretty straightforward but it's a good resource and so I wanted to share that again we have next steps on the right so um implement a common s common systems across our classroom this next year um
056for behavior management and weekly parent uh communication and and bringing in some of that director strong um and then partnering with savings as well. All right, so this is um just where we're at currently with our state. Uh this is for McGovern. So we we finished OSAP. Uh we have a handful of kids in um each grade level that haven't completed theirs yet. um not very many but they are um the math and ELA some of them aren't explored yet um ELA takes a little bit longer so I just put where we're at right now I also put what the out of lance was for McGovern for the last two years just to give you an idea so we've seen a little bit of growth um we generally stay in the 20% to 30% u
057proficiency at McGovern across the board for math science in ELA. Um, and although we do see some improvements, we're still not where we need to be. And I just wanted to note that um that we recognize that and that we're going to work really hard to um get our kids at proficiency moving forward. This is um a full report on OSAP showing our current fifth graders over the past three years. Um, so that where we want our students to land is that level three and level four there at the bottom. And you can see some, you know, um, slow and steady improvements um, in the past three years. Okay, that middle. Um and so what we want to see is we want to see less at level one, less at level two, more in level
058three and level four. I also wanted to know that 28% um of students of fifth graders who scored a level two, there were 20 students out of the 71 that scored a level two and 11 of those ch students were at near level three. So that was um really exciting for the fifth grade. um a math teacher to look at each individual kids score and see how far um they grew. That middle piece there shows um the dots show the average um score on the OSA. And just to give you an idea um for each year across for those fifth grade students and um just to show you that we're we're going up um making improvements. Again, not where we want to be, but we need moving in that direction. Okay. And then um ELA
059is still in progress. I almost didn't even share this one because we still have so many that didn't see graded, but that's where we're at currently. So, we are again seeing some some improvement. Um and yeah, and then lastly, here's our four uh focus areas for next year. A lot of these we've been touching on um the last two years, and we're just going to keep refining what we've been doing and make some improvements. So um there's a study um by the New Teacher Project and it's called the opportunity myth. It's a really neat study. if you have the opportunity to read it and it and it talks about these being the four key components that students need um in order to have academic success. And the whole reason that study came out, they were
060and hopefully I'm not butchering this, but um basically they there was a notice that students, high schoolers were getting into college and they are A and B students and they're having to retake um high school level courses and spending thousands of dollars. Why is that happening? And um so they started uh researching why uh what are t what's happening in classrooms where students are successful and these are the four key um components that they found. So strong instruction, high expectations, deep engagement and grade appropriate assignment. And that one is really interesting because especially with um with the common core state standards and and what we um when you're looking at grade appropriate um assignment and how sometimes it might this skill might appear to be grade appropriate um but really it needs to be taught
061at a much deeper level. Um, and that was, you know, the big idea, uh, was becoming the content strategy so that we can, I'm sure we're doing all of those things. So, >> uh, Let's move on to the summer food service program. Uh Kyle Kyle, >> he's got a hat on. >> Yeah. >> Uh June 15th, he has >> Oh, okay. >> June 15th to August 13th. It looks like the school gets out starting on Monday. Go all the way to the end for school chart and same site, same location, same great extended school year and summer school description. >> Yeah, district has received that summer learning grant. Another grant that we received which was um just fell out. Dave, you want to speak to that at all? No. Um, >> thank you for >>
06280 hours. Yeah, we we were able to uh apply for and receive a competitive grant from the state and we had a great team of principles and staff come together and write that grant and I think they just did a bang up job. Um we do will provide 80 hours of instruction for all grade levels. Um focusing on literacy skills at the at the K through eight and then credit recruit credit recovery at at the high school. >> So it's a three-year grant. So >> it's actually a three-year grant. Yeah. Thanks. Yeah. Three-year grant. So and recurring recurring um awards, you know, doing a lot of different things we weren't able to do in the past, right? you know, like bringing wildlife safari in of doing the big the big animal adventures and it's kind
063of a big a big deal. It is 27 27 28 first summer. So, we're secure for providing 80 hours of instruction for our students for the next three summers. So, I want to also say thank you to Dave and all of the people that we're talking big deal. >> Do we get a lot of kids playing this? >> Yes. Yeah. Elementary you want to speak more elementary than secondary third but I mean in terms of numbers expected numbers >> right now I have about 25 to 30 students signed up >> so I think that we were 50 or 60 students >> we wrote the grant for 100 for 100 yeah the principal did a great job recruiting Oh, let's report it when we can. >> We'll move on to the resignation from from Jasmine Guyer,
064board member position 2 description. Uh, the board will need to accept the resignation and declare Mr. Ger position vacant per policy BBC. Uh, move to action item 11C. We'll do that in 11 C. Uh we'll also need to discuss the process for replacement for policy BBE. We'll need to decide how long to post the application and decide the date to interview candidates. Uh the appointee would serve until June 30th, 2027. And then the position would be up for election next spring. The elected uh candidate would serve the remainder of the term until June 30th, 2029. There is an attachment of that designation with that. You want to >> Yeah. Why don't we take some time? Why don't >> Why don't we just tired? >> Thank you very much. >> Yeah. >> For your service on
065the board. We really appreciate it. >> And we have a little something for you. >> Yeah. We got a little >> Yeah. Thank you so much. >> Appreciate everything I've learned and >> I'll be Yeah, absolutely. >> Yeah. Thank you, J. >> Um Douglas High School that high school new plan course modernized calculus um >> okay DHS would like to offer this new course for students in grades 11 and 12. This course would be consider uh to consider dual credit and uh prepare students for trigonometry and calculus. >> Yeah, >> which one that this course also focuses on problem solving, uh modeling and making connections with other discipline such as science, business, and economics. And that's moved to action item 11 A and passive. >> Craig, anything you want to say about that? >> It's
066just another opportunity for students to get that higher that higher math when they get into school. We have to get now coming in at the junior high with their running geometry. So it just gives them that extra time or extra opportunity. >> Yeah. So just trying to provide more >> anytime we can increase dual credit. So >> uh field trip request um is there any that you want to speak on? >> I mean there's just so many they're they're piling in. I don't have that right in front of me but >> thank you. Yeah talked about it. >> Yeah. So thank you. Please uh keep all the kids safe out there. You know, from now until that last student contact day, which is Wednesday, June 10th, just lot of action. Lot of action. >> Okay.
067All good. We'll go ahead and move to the adoption of the consent agenda. And during this portion, Jasmine, as always, she's always taking on. We'll do thank you for our current donations um from our community. Um thank you for from Winston Millard Food Service to Edward Jones for $500 donation to Top Chef sweet competition. Um to Grocery Outlet and Dean Dies for a $50 gift card for Top Chef competition. Um IGNA for a $50 cash donation toward the top chef competition.

And then thank you to the Ford family foundation for the $1,000 to teacher and staff appreciation. >> Nope. Did you want to talk about >> other than Kurt and I enjoyed that? Nice job, Kyle. That Top Chef competition was fun with the high school. Kurt and I were lucky enough to be judges for that. >> Oh, right. >> So, we ate a lot of food. It was fun seeing a lot of kids. >> How many students did we have, Kyle? There was 13, I think, or 14. So, it was it was a good opportunity to get out there and and um >> 12. Yeah. So, it was good for those students to
069be able to uh show that excitement to demonstrate their skills. Um with the consent agenda, we need to make a motion. I >> move school board directors approve the consent agenda as presented. >> I'll second that motion. >> We have a motion and a second. All in favor? I >> opposed. Motion carried. action items. Does the high school need to automate school? >> Oh, okay. Yeah, that's what we spoke of.

The district will be responsible for tuition only bill at 80%. Uh we need to make a motion on that. Move that deal with school district board directors approve the expanded options agreement with community college for 2026 27 academic year. >> I'll second. >> We have a motion and a second. All in favor? >> I unanimous motion carried that. Um 11 acceptations position. Um, per policy BDC, the board must accept the resignation and declare the position vacant. Uh, so there's a recommended motion. Would anyone like to >> I move on Dillard School District Board of Directors approve the resignation from

I mean they have a lot of >> information facilities. >> My notes are a lot. >> Would you like this? >> No, I'm good. >> Thank you. So, um just uh some little past projects and and upcoming project that we finished, you know, just to go down through here. Um like at the high school March, we painted the exterior, the science building. Turned out real nice.
072Uh this summer, we'll go ahead and uh refinish the gym floors up there. Um, looking glass will refinish the floors out there this summer. Um, McGovern, we're going to take uh classroom 20 and four and uh as best faith the flooring, the carpet, tile, mastic, and then maintenance. We'll come back in and go ahead and grind and polish those. And then uh they're getting a new exhaust fan for the dishwasher for the kitchen in the summer. Um y'all school, we got a Renew America Renew America Schools grant a couple years ago and we're still working on it. Um, but it's what is proposed is 12 new mini splits in the building and uh the federal side of it paperwork's pretty slow. So, we're finally getting closer to where this will possibly fund. I would like
073to do it this summer. >> Yeah, we'll we'll see. Um Yeah. Yeah. I don't It's just a slow process. It's a lot of red tape. Um, and then right now, uh, we're in the process of, uh, painting the outside. I figured it we're going to hang these new mini splits on this building. We It It needed paint bad. And so, >> yeah. >> Um, the middle school, we just installed a 6ft fence on the east side of Cross. It used to be a 4ft and this is the cops grant portion. So, it gives I mean, before you just kind of step over it. So now, I mean, if you're going to have to put these out here, work at it if you want to get over it. Um, this summer, we'll go ahead and refinish
074the gym floor over there, too. Uh, they'll get a new exhaust fan also for the dishwasher. They're, you know, old 60 model. Um, one thing that we're I'm kind of proud of that the guys did maintenance is, uh, we automated the river pump and the valves over there. So, it was all manual and it it it's not as good as the high school. High school's got submersible. We water at night. It's all automatic over there. We still have to go make sure the pump is primed before and then it'll turn on at 8:00 in the morning. Then it turns off 11:15 for lunch, back on at noon. And all of it works all day long. And once we get I mean if we didn't have to go check prime it would be completely automated also.
075But it's it's really nice. Saves a ton of time. Guys aren't going over there shutting the pump off opening valves doing doing that. We get to go do other important stuff. Um Broadway we're going to rebuild or set the double doors. Um I know that was a little bit of a >> Wait, is that eight doors? cut floor to date. >> You guys want to have a discussion about this? >> Okay. Um yeah, we're going to do that in the summer and also um upgrade the access controls for those doors. Um, also another thing that we've kind of been doing summertime, uh, when the grass starts dying a little bit and we can get to different projects is, uh, trying to upgrade the the baseball, softball, the recreational field. Like over here at McGovern, we
076put a new, um, home plate and scout field and a new back stop. And then we've been working on them and we're trying to get it to where, you know, the kids have a a decent place instead of an old, you know, cow pasture to, you know, take a ball off the chin or something to try to level them out and make them nicer >> that machine that we >> Yes. a little bit. How that's been going because I the work even that you did in on this field over here, it's just amazing with the with the machine. >> Yeah. and and it still needs more, but you know, baby steps, try to get done what we can. And we do have uh a new home plate mound anchors for over here also. You know,
077there's plans to get that done this summer, too. One thing you didn't mention is the garbage service. How's that going? >> Uh better than what I thought. >> I mean, I thought of that too a minute ago. I I heard a birdie told me that that was a pretty big success. That that turned out better than expected. >> It has. Um we're not producing much as much trash as I thought we would. >> Um it's taking less time. Uh yeah. So it was it's pretty slick. And what's nice is, you know, like before if we had thrown in a chair or metal or something like that, you know, like, oh my gosh, you know, and now it doesn't matter. We can throw whatever we want in there because we're the ones that take it to
078the dump. >> It's about the third of the cost, you know, >> the estimated cost. >> Yeah. That what we thought. >> Yeah. So, so there was a saving initial saving and then then it's a third of that estimated. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, the first year I figured, and don't quote me on this, I figured it was about a $7,000 um cost that we would recoup after buying trailers, the dump, and everything. I mean, we're still going to put seven grand in our pocket. And it's like she said, more than that. >> Yeah. >> So, it was a great big great win. >> Yeah. >> Great saving. I feel like too I see the vampires almost full and I think, "Oh gosh, it's fine." And they just come and do it and it hasn't
079been a hassle in our in my building. >> And it was at even or at least at Looking Glass, wasn't it? Didn't they not pick it up sometimes? And >> yeah, >> not you guys. >> So I I cheat on that. I have cameras on all the dumpsters. >> So I checked on like, "Oh, hey Brian, go get blast." I you know I shouldn't say it actually just it automatically happens but >> hey when you pay for those cameras too you might as well do something >> that's right >> but it also I would think lead to efficiency too right you don't go and >> don't need it >> yeah it's labeled with dealer dumpsters >> wants to do it only question. >> Yeah. >> Could you talk about our East West Shrine kids going
080on this year? >> Um my understanding is that we have two um three. I know that Ryder Sawyer, Reese Willis, and the third one is the cheerleader. I think it's the first time we've ever had a cheerleader go be selected to go to the shrine. >> That's awesome. >> Yeah. Um I know that you to be able to to have even even one is a is a pretty big feather in your cap. So for us to be able to send as many as we are, that's a that's a pretty great thing. >> Yeah. They got switched from the west to the east. I guess they got a call and they were so >> Oregon's Oregon, right? Yeah, >> I played I played on the east squad. >> You got to tell the story. >> They
081were 50 years ago. >> So, so I was calling them traders for a while. Now they're on. >> All right. So, the shrine are going to be there on Thursday at the beginning of our assembly to introduce them. They're going to be they're going to come in on Thursday to our assembly and they're going to say something >> tomorrow presentation next week. assembly, >> right? >> I got to wear the hats now. >> Yeah. And and from my understanding, they're actually going back um they they they used to go into the hospital back in the day. Um which was kind of a life um altering for for students to go in and see how that really is. And so they're going to start that again this year from my understanding. They're going to go back
082into the hospital uh to to visit kids, which is a great neat thing for all those kids. to see those kids and and how happy they are, you know. It was it was unreal for coming where you never see it to go there to the hospital and walk around and, you know, play uh games with the kids and stuff and see them in the beds and it was it was eye opening. The game was you you never remember the game, but you remember that. But I got one more piece. The trap club got first in conference. So they they blew everybody away or AD come out, give them a little encouragement in the win. But >> um more like I was in awe of some of the skills that I saw from the the kids
083on that team. That was impressive. >> And yeah, you that was our younger kids. Uh you uh the older kids really put on a show this year. Um Doug Ryder. He um he shoot five weeks. He shoot you shoot a score of 50 every week. He shoot 50 birds every week. He shot a 49, a 50, a 49, and a 50, and a 49. He miss three birds out of 250. Well, and if you haven't watched them, the birds come out and and some of the I would say lesser experienced kids, the bird gets out their ways with kids like Ryder, I mean, it it's barely out of a shoot and that thing explodes. They're They track that thing so fast. It's It's really something to watch. >> Yep. State background. So we're taking 20
084kids to state. So that'll be fine. Be a long day. >> You want just to finish up everything just talk about what's going on with the athletics. >> Yeah, that'd be great. Yeah, >> he he'll be my uh >> Oh, you're trying to get out. So, uh, the 2025 2026 athletic kind of year and re review school year has been a hallmark success in the athletic department at Douglas High School. We have seen exceptional student athlete participation and high levels of competitive success across all three sports seasons. 12 of our 16 sports, which is 75% have experienced success at the state level. The icing on the cake is that multiple athletes from Douglas High School are set to continue their athletic careers at the collegiate level, whether it be wrestling, soccer, you name it. Um
085we've got a number of kids moving on, which is really really awesome. The uh the biggest thing that I think that we've done in terms of athletics in our district is the um reassembly of the oldqua Valley League at the middle school. Uh we we went to work. We started talking with people at Roseberg and we were able to get um Joel Lane, Fremont, um of course Winston Dillard, we've got Southerntherland, South Umqua, we were able to get Glide to join and Coil to join. And so we have uh very substantially decreased the amount of time students are going to spend on a bus and out of the classroom which in turn also um you know saves the district a ton of money every year when it comes to transportation. Um so um that's probably
086the thing that I'm the most proud of that we've accomplished athletically this year. >> Any questions about any of that? >> Great. Will will there be two teams for like they used to at Fremont and go lane? They used to have a red and white and >> so they they have been um playing down in the Medford actually in Grant Pass area and it it's been a gigantic mess down there. There's multiple divisions, gold, silver, bronze, platinum, I don't even know how many different divisions. and they were encouraged to try to put together as many teams as they possibly could. So, they had really muddied the waters, you know, trying to get kids to participate that didn't even really want to be in sports. What we're hoping to get them back to is at least
087no more than four teams when it comes to volleyball, uh, boys and girls basketball. Uh, the track, the cross country, the football stuff will play itself out, um, pretty easily, but um, they're going to go to a varsity JV format at the middle school when it comes to volleyball, boys and girls basketball. And so if they if they end up with more than two teams, they'll they'll have kind of an A team, a B team, so on and so forth. But the number that um Fremont and Joel were noticeably different. One school is going to be able to supply more than the other. So luckily with being so local, we can get together, we can um schedule, we can be honest about, you know, this team's this good, this team's this good, and we're not
088we're not driving, you know, three hours over to the coast to play somebody that that we either beat by 50 or lose by 50. The competition level is going to be much more manageable and the games are going to be not only closer, but a lot more fun to watch. >> Yeah, thanks. That was, you know, before the direction of the board, you know, we we the concern for what you just described was real and so nice job with you and your team going out and really rallying the UVL back into action, which common sense. I went to a meeting with Michelle at the beginning of the year, middle school meeting, and and there was a room this big with more people in it than we have in it now. And people from one corner
