Um, Miss Horsey, I will say I have got my new t I don't have the bill yet, but the new taxes and I was uh pleasantly surprised and it has to do, you know, with the tax rate on how our tax rate from last year was 4.1775 and this year it's 2989. Even though the assessment on my home went up tremendously and Sean said I was going to be hurt, I'm still pleasantly surprised. But then again, I took the old age credit, so I'm paying less this year than I did last year.
008So, I'm I'm really thrilled about it. So, I think once everyone, you know, in the public gets their tax bills, they're going to see it's not going to be as bad as what we all thought, >> right?

Law board of education authorizes superintendent to reallocate funds in the FY26 opportunity funding grant from one school to another as needed. >> Can I just say this before uh because it says reallocate funds. I want everybody to understand if you're watching online or sitting here today when we reallocate funds that just means that that opportunity funds for every student who is a low-income or a multi- language learner we earn so much money. So if Laurel Elementary School and Laurel Intermediate School earn I'm just going to say, you know, $200,000. We might say, well, we want to spend that money across the entire district. So that's what they're approving for me to
012share the wealth. If one school has an overabundance of opportunity funding, we're sharing a wealth across schools. That's everybody has a BHC for example, right?

Um well to be quite honest with you um this was something that was on the agenda a couple years ago uh when we went got for CN for North Laurel because we wanted to make sure that we had enough room uh to start shifting some of the population that I shared with
014you guys. Laurel Elementary School last year was pretty much at 100% capacity. Uh and now that we've moved them to North Laurel, North Laurel is now at like 96% capacity and Laurel LES is now at 80% capacity. So what a certificate of necessity would do would be able to show that we have the needs because of population to improve what we currently have. Um but none of the CN were approved when we submitted the first time. So we're submitting again. >> Okay. >> And we don't know how likely that'll be. >> Okay. >> Laura, >> I saw that. Right. Yeah, I saw that >> two years ago. >> Okay. I just wasn't for sure. >> And it's it's a key because and and I'll I'll finish this up real quick. um to get a referendum
015for a building to expand to handle the population you have to first get the CN approved right and then CN approves you to have the right for referendum but then you still have to you know come up with the 20% of it even if you get a yes so >> okay >> CN is the first step >> all right thank you very much >> okay uh we have no items for presentation and review policy and resolution so into executive session items recommend to approve the personnel report with recommendations as discussed in executive session as listed in attachment A. >> First, Mrs. Pew. >> Second, Mr. Nichols.
