001Okay, I will have this meeting to order with a moment of silence and pledge of allegiance. Please stand. 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. May we have a roll call? Sue. Mr. Minion here. Mr. Francis. Mrs. Irwin Adams here. Mrs. McInness here. Mr. Cook here. Mr. Mr. Macaulay here. Mr. Romanoitz here. Mr. Pacificico here. Mr. Papis here. Thank you all. Thanks. I would like to announce that prior to this meeting, we had an executive session where we discussed personnel issues and we also had our act 44 annual report which was the safety report by uh Mr. Per. Um before we go too far into this meeting, um we'll we'll go right
002to number two uh on on our agenda which is uh discussion of the final general budget for 2025 2026 and annual tax resolution. Also is Homestar Homestead Farmstead exclusion resolution and a resolution to commit um our unassigned fund balance. Um so administration recommends the board approve and adopt a 2526 general fund budget and corresponding tax resolution as proposed, advertised, and as amended. The attached final general fund budget report is the PDE approved format and includes expenditures of 125 million791,510 and revenues and other sources of funds in the amount of 124 million. There's a misprint. Is it 104 or we're missing a number on my agenda expenditures of that's expenditures 125,791,510 the revenue is 124 million4 $40 uh $40,259. Okay. 1244259. Okay. Um I will start with um asking for a motion to approve this budget.
003Would we like to have a discussion? Anybody? Th this just to clarify this this budget has a tax increase. Correct. This is the 3% tax increase. All right. Just just Thank you. Any discussion? Will we do a roll call? Mr. Minan? No. Mr. Francis? No. Mrs. Irwin Adams? No. Mrs. McGinness? No. Mr. Cook? No. Mr. McCauley, no. Mr. Romanoitz, yes. Mr. Pacificico, no. Mr. Papis, no. Motion fails. Okay. I would like to make a motion uh for a budget that includes a tax increase of 0%. I have a second for Mr. Francis. Would we like to have any discussion? I would just say just to reiterate what we discussed previously, um last year this board did vote for an increase. Um and in addition to the increase that was voted in favor of uh the
004the school district got an additional $3 million um from the state that was not anticipated and our what is our fund balance right now Sue approximately 34 million. So, our fund balance is $34 million, and I don't think it would be irresponsible uh not to impose any taxes on the citizens uh here in Altuna um in lie of that amount of money in fun in our fund balance. Um so, for that reason, that's why I put forth the motion of not raising taxes this year. Uh would anybody else like to offer anything? Okay, seeing none. Uh oh, I'm sorry. I just say I support your ideology. I 100% Val. U after what happened with the city raising taxes on us, we need to give him a break. Uh at least for your I totally in
005agreement with you on this. Thank you. Anybody else? So, may we do a roll call, Mr. Minion? Yes. Mr. Francis, Mrs. Irwin Adams? Mrs. McGinness. Yes. Mr. Cook, Mr. McCully, yes. Mr. Romanoitz, yes. Mr. Pacificico, yes. Mr. Papis, yes. Motion carries. Thank you. So, now we move on to the next two resolutions. Can we take those together because they Okay, so uh B is sorry why I moved my mouse. Um B is administration recommends approval of the 2526 homestead and farm exclusion resolution. Um and C is just a simple resolution to uh approval of the resolution to commit unassigned fund balance in excess of 8%. Um, can I have a motion to appro approve those two items on the agenda? Do I have a second? Would anybody wish to discuss any of those? Well, I
006just want to clarify. Are are we voting on the motion as it's written on the agenda or are we voting on the motion with a 0% increase? Uh since the major tax resolution included a 0% tax increase, the homestead farmstead would also include zero. Okay. I just want to clarify that we're not voting on it as it is on the agenda. At a zero tax increase, the allowance per homestead approved property would be $256.88 which 258 $256.88 with with no tax increase. Correct. And if there would have been a tax increase, it would have been 18122. Is that correct? If there would had have been a tax increase, there would have been a minimal change of 25671. Homestead Farmstead 25671. Am I reading something wrong on the on the Homestead resolution on the It's on
007the back. It's on the second page. It's a confusing resolution. So the next to the last paragraph on the second page. Okay. All right. Calls would just reflect the fact that we voted for 0%. Okay. So any further discussion on those two items, B and C? I know I ask this every year. So what percentage of the the homes in Altuna are single dwelling homes? Yeah. You know, not rentals, but what do you happen to know that? Because it seems that there's a lot of single dwelling homes that are that are rentals. Now I I I there's no way for me to know how many are owner occupied and how many aren't based on our tax. I thought you had that number before. The number of properties that are approved for homestead farmstead are 12,126
008and we have not everybody's not everybody's but I'm all I'm saying is it seems that Alton is becoming a rental city. I I believe that 60 60% home ownership and approximately 40%. Is that is that is that a a true figure or is that just your your opinion? That's based on what I know. Okay. So 60% of of the homes are are are homes that approved. The other 40% are rentals. So of the res of the right or residential. Okay. But not everybody takes advantage of I I realize that. Right. Anyone else? I don't know that this is a roll call necessary vote. So I will ask for all in favor to signify by saying I. I. Anyone opposed? Motion carries. All right. We will move on to item three on the agenda. Hearing from
009citizens. Do we have anybody who wishes to speak to us or address us? Oh, I didn't I didn't see Jason. Well, I didn't see it on the agenda. Uh, good evening, uh, members of the board, administrative team, and citizens of Altuna. Uh, my name is Jason Hatch, and I'm a math teacher and future administrator in the Altuna area school district. Tonight, I am honored to share a truly inspiring and transformational journey that our Aluna Area Junior High School students experienced from January through May. An opportunity that has shaped their educational path and quite possibly their futures. This year, our students proudly participated in the impact project, a national educational initiative aimed at exploring NASA's mission to sustain life on moon and Mars. Beginning in January, our students came together as curious minds and emerged as
010informed, passionate collaborators. Nearly 80 students volunteered to participate and meet before, during, and after school to take on this challenge. Over the course of several months, these students organized themselves into functional teams and took ownership of the rules. Conducted in-depth research into lunar and Martian environments. Watch congressional hearings and NASA broadcast on CNN to stay connected with real world issues and developments. This real life introduction to high finance budgets, political agendas and alliances, and quote unquote how the world works was an eye openener to say the least for them. The students created and revised professional slide presentations while learning how to tell a compelling scientific story utilizing skills that are applicable to all of their classes as well as their ability to use public speaking to tell a story. They also engaged in the quarterbacks
011for life curriculum through the beating the odds foundation, applying life lessons in resilience, leadership, and teamwork to the daunting challenge of long-term space habitation. Most impressively, they learned to work together with mutual respect and purpose to deliver a professional-grade presentation on one of the most complex topics of our time, sustaining human life beyond Earth. Their hard work culminated in a once-in-a-lifetime visit to the NASA Gddard Space Flight Center where they had an extraordinary privilege of doing the following. They tooured the data command hub that tracks satellites, space stations, and even top secret aerospace innovations. They met with astronauts, aerospace engineers, scientists, and mission control specialists. seeing presentations of planetary studies in high definition and high resolution that only professionals in the space community get to see. They watched in real time the construction and testing
012of the new space station set to be sent into orbit in fall of 2025. They then presented their findings on how the quarterbacks for life curriculum can relate to projects in life from those they face as teenagers growing up in Altuna to successfully creating sustainable life on the beyond. 45 students with very diverse interest, cultural backgrounds, academic successes, and socioeconomic backgrounds came together with groups from as far away as California to get on stage and present their findings, their successes, their failures, and what they learned. and they were they were able to firsthand see the global teamwork it takes to push humanity further into the cosmos as well as a visit to dining in the mecca of Golden Corral on the way home. I know that gets asked for a lot in this area. Um
013so I'm here tonight to thank a lot of people. Uh none of this would have been possible without the incredible support of so many within our district community. To our board of education, thank you for continuing to invest in innovative and experiment experiential learning opportunities. There are so many kids that have never been out of Altuna and seeing the great opportunities our country has for them can only feed their dreams and desires for great things. to our central office and building level administrative teams. Your leadership and logistical support were invaluable throughout the process, especially your guidance to myself, who had never planned a trip like this before, especially of this magnitude. Uh, a heartfelt thank you to Mr. Rock Scousy, four-time Super Bowl winner, Mr. Rocky Blar, and the Odds Foundation for their mentorship in
014guiding our students through the quarterbacks for life curriculum with integrity and purpose. It was nearly 35 years ago that I had the opportunity to be on stage with our superintendent when the beating the odds was in its infancy in front of thousands of students in the dele arena at St. Francis University. And finally, a very special thank you to Miss Paula Thornton School District Foundation. Your generous funding of this experience create a lifelong memory for our students. One that will surely echo their future careers and aspirations. Uh the students wanted to let us let you all know that we have uh emailed you all uh a YouTube link for the students final presentation. Um the entire presentation is there with direction directions to go directly to our students uh 10-minute presentation. And there's also a
015gallery of photos from the Gddard Space Center uh that highlight our visit. Thank you again for your continuing beliefless potential for our students. Their reach quite literally is now beyond the stars. Thank you. Thanks, Jason. Um I watched a little bit of the video. It was pretty impressive. I What an experience for for these kids. So thanks. It only took him four trips to the greater Pittsburgh area to get uh a birth certificate in Real ID in the course of five days, literally. So, they they would not accept anything other than Real ID. So, we literally had to take four trips back and forth to Pittsburgh to get a a replacement birth certificate and Real ID. So, thank you for your dedication. Okay, now I think we could hear from citizens. Would you like to
016come on up, please? Uh, share your name with us. Uh, is this on? Yeah. My name is Mary Flick. Hi, Mary. Hi. I live at 1317 25th Avenue, right across from the Keith Old Keith Ballfield, which is why I am here. There are four issues that Well, I know Mr. Hatch is aware of one of them. There are kids bringing dirt bikes and minibikes and riding around in there. For one thing, my front porch faces that and it's very disturbing to hear that. Plus, I have pictures showing where they're destroying the field. Muddy tracks and tearing it up and down, which also leads to a liability issue. If they get hurt or hurt someone else, who's liable? Being that the school district owns the field, I would think it would be the school district's responsibility.
017I led a suggestion, put up simple signs, no unauthorized motorized vehicles. That would give us residents who live in the neighborhood the chance some backup. If they're up there, call the police, tell them they're not allowed to come back up. The second issue I have with that is the upper field that you rent for the soccer team. Inform them to take their trash out because they have a garbage can there that's full. They have other trash laying around. Oops, I'm sorry. Laying around the garbage can. My suggestion was Well, first of all, my question is who's responsible according to their lease? Do they take care of their own trash? Does whoever emptied the job, Johnny, take care of the trash, or is it the school district's responsibility? And as far as the fields, whoever is
018mowing the grass, you're paying them too much because I have pictures here. They just cut it yesterday. If they can't get off their zeroturn mowers, they're not doing it. They're not using cutting the fields with string trimmers. They're not trimming around the trees and it's just I have pictures which you pass them around. So I figure if they're doing 5/8 of the job then they should only get paid 5/8 of their salary. And back on liability when I bought that house 31 years ago, there used to be some exercise equipment up there. Couple 4x4s with some place to do chin-ups, a recliner to do crunches. A few years after I moved in, they took that down. However, there are pictures in there. They never filled in the holes where the 4x4 posts are. So there's
019like six to eight holes that are 4x4 about six to eight inches deep. A kid comes running along, gets her foot in there, breaks a leg. A dog, we have deer up there. If a deer falls in there, you know, it'd just be nasty. Simple solution, merely suggestions. Get a couple maintenance guys, two bags of quickrete, take some water up there, mix it up, pour it in the holes. Nobody's falling in there. That's it. Any questions? I'll just respond real quick. Ultimately, we own the property. It is our responsibility. Um and and we know that and we we've we are aware of the issues and concerns that you brought to us and they are in the process of being addressed. We do have a leie that has a responsibility as well. Um and and part
020of our responsibility is making sure they're holding up their end of the lease. Um, so ultimately, you know, we own that and and we will make sure that it's addressed. Okay? So that's what I mean just because and you can't just blame the kids for leaving their trash there because the coaches have left those cans that you spray the lines on by the garbage. Simple theory. Treat it like a beach. Carry out what you carry in. So hey, anything else? All right. Thank you. No thanks. Feel free to keep us posted. Pardon? keep us posted if it doesn't get better. Well, I that those pictures, the ones I have of where they're not cutting the field, that was taken last Sunday. They were there yesterday and it's exactly the same. I didn't feel like getting
021more pictures. Thank you. Be addressed. Would anyone else like to get up and speak to us? No. All right, then we will move on to uh item number four uh minutes. I'm seeking um a motion to approve the regular board meeting minutes from May 12th, 2025. That was a regular board meeting and approval of the minutes from a committee of the whole meeting on June 2nd, 2025. May I have a motion to approve those minutes? I have a second.

041code here uh in Pennsylvania back in in December that now has significant penalties uh for either adults or uh students that actually uh apply uh the Nutify app or otherwise portray people and then undress them and put it out there. that could have significant ramifications for students not only applying college scholarships, not getting into the military, and I believe that they need to be clearly aware of the, you know, implications for engaging in that type of conduct in the school setting, especially for the upcoming school year. And that's it. Thanks. Thank you, Mr. Beard. I will make a motion to adjourn this meeting. Will anybody give me a second? All in favor of adjourning the meeting, please signify by saying I. I.
