001[Music] i pledge allegiance to the flag of the united states of america and to the republic for which it stands one nation under god indivisible with liberty and justice for all all right we're going to start out tonight with a moment of silence in honor of a student named terence from whites who was on a home pass i understand this past weekend and tragically passed away in a car accident so if you would let's just have a more assignment for him thank you future board meetings may 11th and 25th and june 8th all here at our regular time at 6pm we have no revisions to the agenda and so we'll start with public recognition we have a recommendation to approve a 140 donation from the wabash county sheriff's department for the southwood elementary to purchase
002snacks for the little nights and kindergarten classes also a recommendation to approve a 100 donation in the form of a gift card from harbor freight from our first southwood elementary's robotics a recommendation to approve a 300 donation from an anonymous donor for northfield softball and a recommendation to approve a 1600 donation uh 500 from hoffman's nursery and landscaping 500 for mckenzie food 300 for mckellips seeds and 300 for agricum all for the northfield softball and baseball programs a recommendation to approve the 300 donation from shemwell and sons for northfield softball and finally the recommendation to approve a 110 donation from jonathan cloth for northfield track let me see one thing about the sheriff's department i think this is kind of fun though part of that is sheriff baker has allowed the deputies to grow beers
003typically they don't grow beers and so they allowed they allowed them for a donation to grow beards and so that's how they have raised their funds and they said it would be for different schools and things like that so we appreciate them along with everybody else i just thought that was kind of a interesting thing that they did to help the community and help our schools to approve the very generous donations all in favor say all right okay school recognition and we'll start with mrs moore thank you um first thing to share is last week our kindergarten students went on a field trip to paradise spring and joining them were four northfield seniors um keaton stout clay herring ethan galbraith galbraith galbraith this is his last name and then kessel and they have um created
004our quite historical tours and our kindergartners for their first official customers they are have created this business model um through grow wabash as part of a i believe competition correct mr snyder um but this business idea stems where they're wanting to do tours downtown and so they were in costume and role play and our kindergartners loved it and if you've been around kindergartners they are a tough audience they tell you the truth every single time and so when i asked them what they thought about it they gave great reviews so it was exciting and several of those guys are more veteran so their kindergarten teachers were pretty proud of them um we also had a parent that even though you know our closure due to copa was over a year ago that reached out to
005celebrate mrs stacy bone and the support that she gave her daughter who's now a second grader but when she was in stacy's first grade class the parents shared that even though school was closed and during the summer mrs bone made sure that every student in her class felt like they had someone to talk to and was truly there for them and then she also commented how mrs bone believes in her students and their dreams and that she continues to push them to be the best that they can be lastly um we just want to thank our junior achievement volunteers we have had i think seven volunteers this school year through junior achievement come into our kindergarten first and second grade classrooms to deliver some community-based curriculum that aligns with our economics and social studies standards
006they give you know it's either five to six weeks but about an hour a week for that instruction some do more than one classroom so thanks to ben mcfarland jennifer nessler tiffany weaver tricia oswalt jett snyder ashley sheets christine chamberlain and then i have one more [Music] i know i know i'm so sorry um brandi stack house so appreciate them coming in and teaching our parents about our community and that is uh the choir students who participated in the isma district vocal piano and solo and ensemble contest we had 13 high school students excuse me shs at junior high had 13 19 junior high students and 13 high school students got to get my eyes checked excuse me 26 entries and we brought home 22 gold ratings three silver ratings and one bronze and so
007uh very good there we also had we received an exemplary behavior report for boys baseball both their game against madison grant on april 19th the report means it's clear that the coaching staffs for both southwood and madison grant have worked to instill the value of respect in their players respect for the teammates their opponents and umpires being able to officiate a game with this kind of positive atmosphere as pleasure players are polite respectful and approach the game the right way i commend both programs for their efforts in from the umpire uh we'd also like to thank our senior responder sponsors carrie johnson and cynthia bell for planning organizing and attending the senior trip to pigeon forge in gatlinburg tennessee kids were able to see some really really wonderful sites while they were there and i
008think that it it we really need to recognize melissa ball because she volunteered her time to drive down there so it's really challenging to drive a school bus on the highway for that long but she was taking up taking us up to different places in the mountains and i used to drive a honda civic i wouldn't trust my civic intention all those ins and outs but she was able to do it flawlessly so outstanding outstanding driver uh we also want to recognize seniors alex weiner and aj getz they both qualified and presented at the regional innovate within competition alex placed second and is in the running for the wild card spot for the state uh aj did not place the only reference first and second places and then mrs johnson's introduction to business class will
009be completing wednesday tomorrow in the county competition uh we'd also just today we received word from u.s news world report soundwood is recognized as one of the top schools in the nation and in indiana for their status for our status with student performance on state and math language language assessments student performance on college level exams or basically the advanced placement exams and our graduation rate and so i think that might be all of it from me um oh i'm sorry one more thing the indiana basketball coaches association announced its top high school basketball all-state teams including the supreme 15 it's a list of top senior athletes and this was on march 24th so uh carson rich grade 12 i made a small school all-state team and he holds just a host is our number two
010leading scorer so congratulations to him thank you mr martin from sharp creek we have uh would like to celebrate two student groups that have been active in the past few weeks first of all way to go to the battle of the books competition students for a fantastic job this competition is sponsored and put on by the wabash carnegie public library students are asked to read eight books and answer many questions about the details in the books and they do put in quite a lot of practice time together obviously reading books on their time too we scored two nearly perfect rounds of 11 out of 12 points team members from the sixth grade dawson tex texera ashland macy sage martin keanu gretzman fifth graders colin beale montgomery dawes michaela schue and callie mcclure and fourth graders
011alexis leferny patrick nessler kiera oswald sienna stalker and addie brensman and chase ross and they did all doing a fantastic job and also want to thank mrs uh brettsman for uh being the lead on that and then the other group is our math bowl team this year which who competed in a virtual competition different than the norm but uh virtually battled the books of virtual also this this team was led by mrs saunders so we want to thank her but the team was made up of 14 fourth fifth and sixth grade students elektra merrell sienna stafford jonathan young easton mckinley gavin lester joseph hall nate hodgson bryce peterson jasmine gill hayden copeland chloe youngblood eli shu sage martin and landon mclaughlin students worked hard to improve their abilities a numerous problems have challenged themselves they
012did practice on monday and wednesday mornings which is in and of itself a challenge sometimes had a great time competing getting to work through challenging problems as a team and each member of the team played a key role in the achievement so great job to all of them so just appreciate those students uh appreciate that we have staff that are willing to take on those activities and give students opportunities all right thank you mr mcdavid um i would like to speak a moment about terence and thank you mr davis for on the silencer that means a lot thank you very much i know that terence was on his first home pass what that means is um he had progressed in his program to the point where he had earned he was he was coming to
013an end to his placement probably had another month six weeks maybe eight weeks to go so this is first home pass and terence like a lot of our kids come to us with a host of challenges but i would say terence probably more so than most of our kids were just a tough kid but underneath that tough exterior a leader was really starting to develop on campus and and that obviously maybe it's not obvious but it was very noticeable on monday and the day since uh just other tough kids just reflecting on how much tenants meant to them and so terence was way behind on credits when he started with this in november and he had he had worked really hard on his classes and he was his goal was to graduate before he left
014and he was working on the core 40 diploma so when i let staff know saturday morning what had happened mr biggs our counselor did some some transcript checking and we are able to award a posthumous excuse me so haven't actually talked to his grandmother's grandmother mrs guardian but we'll figure out the right time and place to present that diploma and you know to his grandmother essentially so it is never easy it's not the first time i've been in a building that's lost a student it's never easy uh if um if there's anything good that can come up it does give it to these kids that have been close to him an opportunity to just reflect and think about you know what his parents taught me and how do i want to move forward you know
015with that knowledge so that's that's our hope in our prayer that his death will not be you know certainly in vain um then on another note i do want to celebrate chris whitaker she's one of our teachers at school um about 14 months ago i approached chris uh whose retired band choir teacher said and asked chris would you be interested uh i said no pressure like i said i was planning to see but would you be interested in creating a choir at school and i didn't even let him ask me any questions or give me feedback i said i'm just going to throw that out there and i'll come back and check with you later so the very next day chris comes to see me and he might have been thinking about it all day
016and so it sounds like he's interested so obviously covenant hit and we did a good start choir last year started this year of course pretty crazy but we actually started uh in march uh our girls choir class and uh long story short chris has done a fantastic job we were able to find a a keyboard living in storage at northfield just collecting dust that's working great by the way so we're able to put that to use and um mr whitaker will tell you uh there's various talent levels within this group and so but he is doing some really cool things so last week was mr boyer's birthday and uh he was able to get the girls to sing in a two-part harmony happy birthday to him over the pa system and honestly he did really
017they did a really nice job and so uh we are hoping as this progresses to do some public performances when that time's right probably started in other student chapels but we'd certainly like to get them out into the community as well that's a long-term goal but really chris has done a fantastic job and it's really cool as a principal to tap into a passion of one of your teachers because you've met chris is passionate about it he is really enjoying it so and so i'm enjoying watching him enjoy it and just helping those girls experience a new level of just connection to their school something different to do so it's been really cool all right and i don't know mr schneider you're not on the list here and i know there was a switch and
018i didn't know what happened for sure but anyway well may 11th we have our senior honors banquet okay and then i'm leaving with the eighth and ninth grade to go to dc okay it's probably over here yeah and so i'm here tonight so i saw that on the list and i don't know how to get on here but uh um you're next so i won't be here our girls softball team got an exemplary behavior report from william ball who was the umpire he said northfield coaches players and parents grilled out and had purposely prepared enough food to invite our entire umpire team to join them on saturday which was two weeks ago i think he said i would like to nominate the northfield softball team for their hospitality during our double header on saturday it
019was genuinely a kind gesture and provided a very welcoming environment for our team to compete in so i think they just made enough to let the coaches from the other team and the empires always so it's nice when you hear the good stuff from the vampires another one was for the baseball team this was from a.d eric heisner from eastern and he's the ada and head baseball coach at eastern and he said eastern was playing nhs at kokomo and there were two games i guess they use a stadium in kokomo to play i didn't make it to them but the game was supposed to start like at 6 30 or 7 and the first game went long and the second game of northville didn't start till 8. and he said the northville coaching staff and
020student athletes were very understanding of the inconvenience handled the situation with great flexibility in class this is a direct reflection of their head coach torrey shaffer he does a great job with the norse baseball program teaches the student athletes not only to play the game the right way on the field but also to represent their school in a positive manner off the field eastern greatly appreciated how the northfield baseball coaches and student athletes handled the situation in themselves on monday night and then i also had a battle of the books team of seventh and eighth graders that competed with mr martin which i found is harder to do i know the kids having had them a shirt creek so i'm like you're doing it you're doing it because they get in junior high there's a
021million other things they can do and so they don't want to do it as well but they ought to so we they had we had a team and they did real well those participants that competed virtually were ashton aderman patience foodray logan graft anna hodson jasmine kelly and osborne and cody geiser so i just want to thank them for participating in mrs mckillop our media center teacher for sponsoring the team and spending the time making that available to the kids and then we also i wanted to thank our seniors that earned the honor and went and attended the grow wabash county honor student luncheon i think it was a week ago last thursdays a little over a week ago and those seniors that attended it was on april 13th were logan cox michael fisher emma
022uber abby hunter jett snyder toby bear alex hopper emma brainard addie baker lindsay carter elise gotcha chloe miller and jenna crum and even though a couple of them including my son said they weren't going a promise to kelly's ice cream afterward so i ratted him out but whatever it takes and then i also just want to thank it's not on here but mr daniel reminded me and i don't know if i've had this on here um ryan zincroft and shelly myers for the senior trip that they just planned because we couldn't go to new york this year and then denise stauffer and a lot of juniors and parents that helped put on prom last weekend and post prom went really really well um and the kids were awesome no issues it was foggy i was
023worried about getting home but we didn't have any issues and so i just appreciated all the parents and teachers health getting all this done and thanks to everybody in here for getting it done and allowing it to happen before graduation i will say msd is one of the few districts that have tried to keep things as normal as possible and everything i hear from parents is that it's much appreciated and i'm sure you heard the same thing okay that's it for now all right let's move on to public comment agenda items only and we'll wait for facebook feed to catch up all right we'll move on to the consent agenda items uh the minutes for the last meeting on march 23rd which we need is have approval of those so motion and seconds are approved
024for the minutes from our last board meeting all in favor say aye moving on to financial claims okay that's pretty large number well sometimes i'll just ask for my own information you got to be on a picture yes do you have the same time yeah so gaggle i don't know much about it you might be able to talk a little bit more about it we we have a we have a safe mail service that it's a human monitoring system monitors our emails and things on our devices as far as messages and things of that nature and if they see something that is inappropriate or of concern then they notify an administrator to deal with the issue safe mail i think is what it was called safe male human monitoring and we have not that have
025not been pleased with some of the things that they have not been catching and the timing of some of those uh responses to us about those issues and so they looked for another service which is this gaggle service and so that's a three-year we to get a reduced price we had to make a three-year commitment [Music] for that and it's for student safety and they actually did a test run for two or three months and compared it to what the other program was doing and it caught a lot more and so in in a timely fashion and so it's very critical if there's a for student safety if there's a self-harm situation and you find out about it two days afterwards and some of the principles can contest to this that um it's not a
026it's not going to be appropriate so that's why we're looking for something different in it and sometimes when you have a more robust robust system um it's going to cost a little bit more but this is a three year that pays for three years for three years yes and it is more expensive than the other but it provides more looks as far as other programs besides just um our email the other one is supposed to be like google drive documents and things like that but but it's uh it's just a it's a lot larger and more robust something needed this includes all this setup and training yes besides the licensing features then regardless now that was metro north yeah it seems like old information since this was the end of may and we're getting ready
027to end april or end of march and we're getting ready to end april but these were the end of the month statements then for march uh time period just reflecting balances again nothing specific to focus on or talk about there and then the next pages reflect the education and operation fund balances from the end of the month cash flow for march and not much has changed there changed their one difference is that we know what our dollars will be remaining from april to june uh because of our february 1 adm count so those dollars are actually reflected in there in that change and then obviously we got good news from the state budget and so we're still working out what some of those details and then eventually we'll get those plugged into our cash flow
028estimates once we have a better idea of what those dollar amounts include and what our estimate adm is remember we have to put in an estimate adm i believe i put in an estimate of 2 000 students in there so our revenue from july through october will reflect that and then once we get our new adm count in september then those adjustments will be made for the remainder of the school year for those dollar amounts is yes so there are increases there are increases in uh what we call the the foundational amount which includes complexity which is a little confusing but it includes complexity index we actually lose money on the complexity side but we gain money on the foundational side and then there is an increase in special ed dollars for certain um categories
029and then no additional dollars for cte but they brought it back some of the cte uh low rate wage what do you call and it's just like basic weight well they call it the low age because there's a higher and lower there's all those different categories they were taking some of those categories out but they brought them back in but there's no additional funding from that they just put those categories back in and then honors no additional funding for the owner's grant so really it's just foundational and special ed dollars where we'll see an increase in that so good news there and then operation i didn't have to change much on anything but that because that's not typed in or anything like that so we don't have to go through all of this but i
030kind of like to show this every once in a while so since we kind of ended march which is the first kind of consider the first quarter i just kind of wanted to show you how those transfers are going remember that we are required not to transfer more than 15 percent of our educational fund dollars into the operational fund so out of these three past three months it shows that we've transferred 12.49 of our operation dollars and that's really only led to about um 11 000 in deficit i guess if you consider a comparison from what accounts used to be paid out of that fund that are no longer paid out of that fund that tracks pretty well with the same percentages last yeah if year go through the rest of them i think i
031show the last year's percentage this would be if we did actuals and then the next slide this was last year's so it was like these aren't no that's really impressive though and it's impressive to make sure that well it needs to be lowered but if you also see last year out of the 12 months we did do 12 but we also transferred i don't say a surplus but we transferred more money than was probably needed to uh how it worked out by the end of the year move on to personnel under resignations we have megan mission and roberta herron both aides at northville high school effective at the end of the school year jewelry patty secretary at southwood you see the effective date there retirement susan kiefer choir teacher at southwood carrie hamill math teacher
032at southwood and rhonda kirby aide at southwood and those are all effective at the end of this year or this summer underemployment elena raid junior high cheer at northfield high school joseph mitchell spanish teacher at northfield for next school year analysis spam special ed teacher in their field for next school year you know i can just miss mentioned uh mr daisy uh susan keith kiefer she actually came to us after she came back from retirement um she did a fantastic job so we're just glad that we had her for a few more years after her official retirement and if mr mcdaniel was here he would echo the great things that she did successful you know i talked to you just not very long ago about how many students that were auditioned for the state choir
033and all of them made it and all the other things that she did was great and then carrie hamill been with msd for for many years he was at white's junior senior high school transferred to southwood has been coaching done a lot of things really build relationships with students and does a great job and i know mr medina would also do that ronda curry as an aide done that for a long time so we're losing some very very good people but we wish them well in their retirement and in the employment part too it's kind of neat to see the first two are actually i'm almost sure for the first one i thought she's a norfolk graduate yes right and then of course joseph mitchell's also a norfolk graduate uh has been teaching mr snyder
034knows more about that um than me um he was at fort wayne right chair busco and so coming back home uh which is great and then alyssa spann who was actually a substitute teacher for sharp creek because we had those different sections there and she had an open position she wasn't going to have a position at sharp creek but now she's been hired at northfield so although we're losing some great people we're also gaining great people too heartland career center report matt do you have anything to say of course really quick uh they added an adult welding class we approved that they're going to apply for a 2021 21-22 perkins grant we authorize the student scholarship program which we've done the last few years taking the rent money from the land and giving it out
035i think a thousand dollars to separate kids that are going on to school we accepted a grant from perkins reserve grant of 38 866 dollars and that's to go towards the ag program and also got a gene haas foundation grant and i can't tell you the dollar amount on that but they're planning on having the senior certificate hunter program may 24th at honeywell trying to get as much as normal as again just to have as many people but that's still the plan and we had one student which is really got enough credits done have been since in criminal justice that they will only have one year have been sentenced to get there so it's really neat that they've got that much going on with fuel credits and so on isn't that neat yeah that's it
036all right thank you super tenants requirements yeah and most of these are just recommend or recognition and some of them have already been mentioned i know that um mrs moore mentioned some of this mr mcdaniel and mr snyder but we have a lot of students that are competing in that innovate within and had an opportunity to watch they had to stream it on the regional meeting on the regional competition where alex weiner got second place and hopefully will be able to go to state did a fabulous job though and the other kids did also and we have the tomorrow is actually the local competition and it's amazing i believe we have looks like one two three four teams at least four teams from southward at least two or three teams from northfield and so we
037appreciate those teachers that are helping those students be able to work on that and compete and some of these just like alex weiner alex is going to with his busy bees he's going to go right out of high school he's going to go and continue his career as busy bees to build that up plus do some other things maybe with his dad but anyway just interesting how they've taken this on and done a great job so just wanted to mention that also i asked mr mcdevitt when i was at one of the graduation ceremonies if i could share this at the one of the board meetings and so i'm going to do this and this is from molly molly was a graduate and they actually get to to give basically what do you tell them
038you tell them to give advice to the other students right how does that work i love them uh to say two two things one people they want to thank they've helped them get there and then two just you know words of wisdom and here's one of them there's a lot of great ones i will tell you and this is just one i thought this would be interesting to share because you know we heard the situation with terence there's a lot of things great things going on there and unfortunately with terence but yeah the leadership and things but this is from molly and this is what she wrote to the advice um to share with the other students it says i know being here isn't ideal no one has to be here but don't sit here
039and waste your time i know not everyone is here because they struggle with addictions but whatever you're here for take this time to better yourself and remember no matter your past or how many bad things you've done god will always love and forgive you when you ask for it and so this is really very special and the things that they learn at whites not just inside the school but also with the residential and the collaboration that they have with the two so i just want to share that i thought that was really neat um also i'm going to i put this on here we don't always talk about these there were things but uh the general assembly of course dr kuhn already mentioned that but uh the increases we really appreciate that um of course
040adm is another factor to all that and so we will continue to work and promote and do well with that and then not a normal thing that we would report but it is great that this year we were able to have um like we said the proms we've had the senior trips are on schedule and we're looking forward to having graduation um and not necessarily having any um capacity limit at this point i mean things are really good hopefully that continues so anybody that wants to come can come we may have a few little um minimal restrictions protocol like we have to have in schools with masks when you walk in or something like that but for the most part it should feel and look um as normal as normal as what we've had before
041uh pending no other situations with code so it's just great that we're going to be able to finish the year and have school and and continue to do the activities that we're doing all right thank you curriculum and instruction for mr gray as usual we're testing and so uh this round we're in i iowa and we've got a week or two left of that and things are going very well um i do want to say that we've been working on accelerated learning through the ester grants and so i know mike's kind of told you on some of that earlier but uh really proud of what we're putting together for summer school for our elementary kids um and some of the other social emotional learning things that we're meeting and so uh trying to take full
042advantage of those funds to try our best to accelerate learning i guess just the simplest way to say that lots of conversations lots of great conversations for our principals to get all that stuff going so let's start to roll out now yeah yeah um the conversation at first was about talking about efficiency but when you're talking to kids that are struggling and then you say hey by the way you're efficient like all you're doing is doing like the negative of that and so um by framing it as an accelerated learning now we're helping those kids and some of the kids that were not struggling anyways and so um you're gonna like i said expand summer school but also try to find ways to offer more programs and more opportunities for kids fans will buy into
043that of course the older the child the harder it is to get the musical that stuff and so uh we see a lot of interest in our k to three group uh four to six has a little bit less interest and of course your high schooler but but for sure the k23 was the most impacting and so it's very confident about that we're going to be able to use those funds to pay our teachers regular hourly rates to get them in there and so we're bringing in our veteran teachers and giving them a lot of attention so it's a it's a special opportunity and i think we're all excited to offer that all right moving on to new business uh first item on the new business is a bond hearing that we're gonna have and
044i'm gonna turn that over to dr kuhn yes so uh i don't know if we have to do anything necessarily formal here but do what we have to after you make your recommendation okay uh so according indiana code anytime that we are going to [Music] finance some projects that are over a million dollars we have to have a bond hearing which is open to the public for comment and so we noted we posted a notice for that project hearing uh on in april 17th meeting that legal requirement and so this is our bond hearing in regards to the money that we're planning on borrowing so the project will cover primarily the majority of it will be spent at the two high schools on roof repairs we also have some additional work that we're doing or
045plan on doing with ceiling tiles and our um network and fiber cables within those buildings to upgrade some of those and then additional money to be spent out at metro north looking at their parking lot fixing up the parking lot on the west side and then possibly doing a restroom renovation of some capacity there to fix those up a little bit right now the roof replacements have gone out for bid and i believe that those bids are due on may 2nd and then we put out four quotes the ceiling tiles and the [Music] fiber and cable installation we're also working on the quotes of the parking lot and we're kind of in the basic stages of looking at the restroom repairs with that so we haven't gotten too far along with that yet if you
046slide over to the next page this gives you an idea of the roof sections that are going to be replaced they all match up at both buildings except for that middle section there where that is just being fixed at northfield because it was already replaced at southwood about 10 years ago when they did some of the roofing projects back then so it wasn't anything that needed to be uh changed at this point in time so that reflects that i wonder why there was a difference in price on the roof yeah so that reflects the difference in prices there okay the ceiling tiles we had them do an initial quote or bid for the hallways with some alternatives in the office space areas the main entrance area and the auditorium entryway as well to fix those
047up similar to what we did in the athletic hallway with the two foot square tiles i believe it is and so [Music] our maintenance crew is going to do some of that as far as the tear down is concerned and so since we had that tear down it's also a good time to update our fiber infrastructure it's been around since the early 90s and we've just kind of piecemealed it together as technology has grown and so some of those cords and fibers are becoming brittle and this will allow us to put them all on a track so that we can gain easier access to them plus allow us to upgrade to be able to push more data through those networks so as part of the bond hearing we talk about the cost of the project
048and the money is borrowing so we plan on borrowing two million dollars there will be no net increase to the debt service fund tax rate relative to the current rate so that does not increase that debt service tax rate that's already established it extends it out for another year so the bonds instead of being paid at the end of 2022 that we paid at the end of 2023 with no impact on tax rate and then the second thing then just shows kind of the windows bonds will begin payment so it talks a little bit about the interest rate the maximums not spending so we won't be borrowing more than two million dollars our interest rate won't exceed five percent uh i talked with jim elizondo from stifl today a little bit about it and you
049know interest rates he said right now you know if we were to take this too big right now are hovering around uh half a percent so hopefully we can still stay in that market range of getting a pretty good interest rate when those bonds go out so with that being said then we would open the hearing to the public to open a public comment period for the bond hearing typically we would only have to do that to those actually present in the room but we will extend that again to those watching us on facebook live because of the public emergency i guess we are still under officially for the schools for clarity and chris one year yeah we'll fix it into 2023 we'll start payments on those bonds in and they'll conclude at the end
050of 2023. the bathrooms yeah and we're still working on some of those details on that obviously expense will be considered as far as what can be done what can't be done when it comes to that so i know that adam is checking right now on some things with the state in regards to some of the ideas we put out there if we do do that do we have to do a full ada renovation of it so he's just kind of working out some of those details to make sure we're not put in a situation where we would have to do some type of full renovation if the funding happens to slip away from us then we can pull out capital projects to do what's new yes and that doesn't mean in another five or ten
051years there won't be an additional sections that will need to be revisited because it is piecemeal together i'm not seeing any public comment okay any other questions before and you guys are stuck in the republic too so if you have any questions okay with that we will close the bond here and move on to the recommendations to approve these resolutions so there's just a little description about those resolutions i kind of went over them in the bond here and so the first resolution or exhibit a really just establishes the estimate cost of the project the tax impact and the timing of that impact and so we would make a recommendation then to approve the project resolution exhibit a i don't know if you want to do these individuals [Music] appendix a for the uh project
052on flavor say hi okay exhibit b then just really establishes the maximum amount to be borrowed the maximum term of repayment and the maximum interest rate which is that two million and five percent so that preliminary bond resolution i moved to the preliminary bond resolution of industry second half i'm going to send a second to adopt the preliminary bond resolution appendix b aye aye recommendation to adopt reimbursement resolution so exhibit c reimbursement expenditures really allows us to go back and reimburse ourselves for any payments in related to this bond uh down the road so for example like we've already had costs for the advertisements and that type of stuff so we could essentially reimburse ourselves for those types of payments from the bond monies moving forward until we get the for any payments now until
053we get the bond essentially because typically what will happen now is after all these are resolved then there's a couple advertisements that we have to post and then in the may 11th board meeting we kind of have a couple more resolutions to approve which finalizes the bond selling and then then it goes out to bid and then we receive those funds typically our goal is to receive those funds by the beginning of junior and so there's still a little time process involved with all this and we do have some other information as far as final approval at the next board here we're at the next board meeting so there'll be some advertisements and other things that we'll have to put out there but this just allows us to reimburse ourselves for any expenditures that we've
054had in this throughout this process since we don't technically have the money yet and this would be called the declaration of intent to reimburse expenditures i moved to through the declaration of to approve the declaration of intent to reimburse expenditures appendix c all in favor say aye recommendation to approve strom for the nhs shs ceiling replacement project so we got the quotes for the ceiling tile project we got three quotes which were required to to get strong came back as the cheapest so the these base quotes are for both northfield and southwood and the ad alternatives then were the the office area the entryway and the auditorium area and so they came back to be the cheapest strom is the one who actually did it for our athletic entryways when we did the flooring and
055painting in the buildings and so our recommendation along with barton co's recommendation would be to [Music] use strong for our ceiling tile project and steve and his crew would work with them on the timing of all that the goal of this would obviously be done during the summer time when advising the buildings are these areas are you happy with the prices this was the best price we had yeah and they're a good company to work with i think we're anticipating about 160 000 to do the project and so this is just over 100 that saved a lot for us that helps us doing some of the work too i always appreciated that replacement project all fair side all right okay recommendation to approve intercept technologies for the nhs shs network upgrade project so aaron was
056uh working on these quotes to replace and update the fibering within both of those buildings we anticipated it would be about 150 000 intersect was the closest uh to that amount and they were the lowest bidder uh with that and so as the as the ceiling tiles are down the intersect would be able to go in and upgrade and replace that wiring and then straw would come in behind and put the ceiling tiles in so that's kind of playing with this and again working through the summer when there's less interruptions in the hallways and office areas to try and get that done before school starts and interests that is more or less local here right yes yeah [Music] it's technology technologies to do the network upgrade at both the high schools volunteers okay so that
057is that is the end of the uh and then probably at the next board meeting like i said uh we should be getting these roof bids back i think may 2nd so we'll probably have a recommendation there for those roofing so they can get that started too that might be that's going to be a project that's probably going to go throughout the school year a little bit the goal end date is to be done while the on the bid the end date was to be done by the end of december of 2021 and so there may have to be some shuffling of some classrooms and things like that a little bit because you don't want them working directly over a classroom with people that when they're doing different sections so they'll take some coordination with
058the building and go to principles i don't know there seems to be so many sourcing okay the last two items we have in our new business our overnight and extended trips we're going to handle both of those together uh the first one is a recommendation to approve an overnight extended field trip for sharp peak elementary sixth grade class to camp mullen ir in silver lake indiana may 19th to the 21st of this year and the other recommendation is to approve an override extended field trip for the southwest junior high school eighth grade class to washington dc in may the 10th of the 15th of 2022 so that sounds like a second to approve both field trips all there say aye aye opposed we have no unfinished business no work policy any public comment on anything
059we'll let facebook catch up with us there i'll share sherry which way he's made a couple of comments um she referred first she said missy is the best i assume it was melissa ball for driving down and she thinks dr coon's reports are awesome i'll just read it as i see it and she echoed kevin kevin's interest she was happy we were using all right so we have no public comment on that any items for the board members
