009and improve uh on the mat and off the mat so um our first we will recognize Chloe Wright State uh just say something about Chloe real quick she finished fifth place at 115 pounds took a tough loss the first day of the state tournament was up 13 to3 um I'm not making fun of you up 13-3 took a pretty big loss um battled her way back through the tournament ended up wrestling That Girl Again for Fifth and six and Pender [Applause] so next up uh was uh the defending state champ won State last year first year program Lindsay Brewer she was in I'm sorry Chloe's in the girl senior Division and so was uh Lindsay she end up finishing third place phenomenal state tournament run for her too uh ran into some really tough girls
010battled her way through it and I just want to make a note that every one of our wrestlers won their last match of the state tournament so [Applause] first year wrestler wrestled for the club I think for a year maybe a year or two before one year so Bailey [Applause] Duan Bailey does look like much but let me tell you her her opponents don't ever say that she uh came into our program first year wrestler pretty much uh finished uh in the third I know what place she finished third place in the girls novice 74 yeah 74 pound class think I would do [Applause] that next up Ella [Applause] Piper Ella was Ella was an alternate last year at the state tournament uh ended up getting voted in to uh help fill the bracket pretty
011much for her state tournament last year she actually wrestled the next wrestler I'm going to announce last year sectionals Unfortunately they had a meet and one went to State one didn't but anyways Ella still got into the state tournament they were both a match away from plac in last last year state tournament this year Ella was wrestling with the junior high as well so she had a lot more Matt time came in for the iwf state series and just I mean blew everybody away darn near pinned her way through the state tournament Pinn the girl in the state finals so she was our state champion this [Applause] year last what yeah no uh Rea reading reading reading I had to do it on purpose re last year was a state qual qualifier for us um

030last minut we talked about potentially moving um board meetings to six o'clock so want to know what the board wants to do and if you want to change it my recommendation would be to start that with the July Bo I'm good with that yes yes sure Ben what do you think what do I think we will make that change and make that next call me up we're start July so you're okay okay B discussion on the proposed 2025 26 student handbook for Canton High School anerson Middle School and District 66 Elementary School all right Elementary any changes you want to highlight um I'm so sorry I didn't I didn't bring it along um I will just say that we work together as an elementary team to review the IPA handbook and the um the high
031school handbook to make just a few uh formal changes that were recommend recommended um one of the changes that we did across the board across the district was add information about funds for our families with students with special needs so I'm really excited about that because they have a contact person um but everything else was just little tweaks here and there nothing major um nothing that I think would be questionable that was really discussed during the handbook meeting thank you Middle School uh same we worked with the high school also Alo so that there's a nice transition we did uh follow the state model handbook no significant changes just just small tweaks that we worked through at the uh meeting with an and and the rest of everybody else that's school he got Pap he's
032got papers everybody's gonna be okay okay it's gonna be okay it's change but I know change is hard it's be okay as a parent I'm all right so um we have the changes that we have are all legal um for 16 so 16 17 18 year old students um that nothing else that's really major besides what I just passed out what we're proposing we're proposing for the next School year that all students take final exams uh that so the the how it will be written is right there with 2025 2026 those two paragraphs and then also we put in there something for activities as well our goal as part of our PLC Journey that one of our aspects is how do we know uh what students are learning so we have those I've talked about
033it before those those dipstick checks along the way those you you know those check-ins with students but part of this process is then that cumulative that cumulative assessment at the end testing over specifically the essential standard material not I know when I was in school you know taking a 100 question final exam and then on page seven in your history book what what color shirt was George Washington wearing that wouldn't be it um it would be very targeted to the essential standards the the essential material the material that our teachers have collaborated on over years that they're saying that if you leave Canton High School and you don't know this material you will not be a successful Canton High School student uh that was that's what we would be be assessing students over um not
034only is it something that we we believe because we went through this with our first our high school handbook team that included parents teachers and a a student representative um we think postsecondary in general we we have students right now that are studying for the asbab to get into the military we have students right now that are also studying just for final exams at student of college on the running Start program I give the same story uh I have in every committee meeting but I have an 82y old Uncle who owns a farm and every single year he has to take a cumulative exam to mix chemicals on the farm and to also haul manure on the farm uh and he's got to do it every year and he has to get a certain score
035and he's he has to get recorded and no one can be in the room with him he has to take that that exam every single year so having this cumulative exam and once again having it be targeted to the specific essential standards that we have collaborated on over the the previous four years um we think it will set students up to be successful um part of those exams too they would be vetted by the high school administration team and Mr start so I'm not going to read through the entire proposal but we also switch the semester grades that are calculated using 90% of the coursework coursework leading up to the final exam so first quarter 45% second quarter 45% semester exam 10% still making a high stakes test but it will not uh be something
036that will tank a student if they are successful on the exam we also have a spreadsheet that we use to say okay I got a 95 quarter 1 I got a 73 quarter 2 and what do I need to get on this exam to get let's say a b we'll have that spreadsheet we use that spreadsheet currently in the um counseling office we can share that spreadsheet with all students so they also know that what kind of feedback did you get from the committee you had on that just out of curiosity yeah um positive positive I would say 95% okay were were on board with it and uh accepting to the change just because of part of the process with our our PC Journey like I said before not just testing just to test a
037student um to be be very specific and targeted with what the assessment will be over like I said we had Parents we had teachers we had a student representative uh admin Team all part of the process Matt I was on there as a school board member and also a parent I think um to just piggy back off of that the biggest thing was the percentage and students understanding how that can affect their grade um and then like consistency with not like the old fashion semester final of a 100 questions that's heavily weighted that was the concern that I heard yeah those were as soon as he said it when he walked to the Lector and I was thinking oh my gosh how much is this going to be what's the test going to be like
038but yeah you answered the question so it seems pretty thoughtful and obviously it's a big change right I mean everybody's known how we do things but to your point you're going to experience this in college and many other places you're going to experience it in the trades when you go there right you got to be able to pass functional tests when you get there and they got to be comprehensive and um yeah and you know our running start students I I'll give one specific example a Rin start student who was in tears in the counseling office leading up to final exams first semester because she had never taken a final exam and was worried about I don't know what to study I don't know how to study I don't I don't even know how to
039taste take this exam um so I think setting them up for success as much as possible but once again it's not it would not be an exam because I'm sure many of you took exams like that it would not be an exam like that where it's 100 questions of just gotta material we want once again it's very targeted if you don't know this information you will not be successful after leaving K in high school any other questions or thoughts that's the biggest change as far as our our handbook yeah I mean the only the only risk here is that I mean today with it being attendance-based right that you know now some kid who's on the fence doesn't show up for the you know day when they really should have been there right we have
040to manage to that but it's probably a low risk and even even postco Matt we have changed that policy unexcused absences so we don't have students that are showing up y yep yep on deathbed thank you Jay [Applause] okay 13 C update on H school students participating in athletics extracurricular activities yeah so we had our first committee meeting felt like it went very well and appreciate everybody that that participated in it um one thing that we did want to share tonight is um some potential board policy um and requirements for homeschool students to participate um so this is just kind of a FYI it's not set in stone it would be something that would be have for discussion that's for sure um but it's it's if we do this it's the biggest most important piece
041to it so just kind of wanted it on your radar um I think and correct me if I'm wrong Mike and Jordan um what the committee would like to do is wait until after the April board meeting have another discussion deeper discussion at the April board meeting meeting once the new board members are seated and then have a committee meeting after that and then have a recommendation for you at the May board meeting yes like the first meeting there was a lot of transparency on both sides um lot of discussion kind of had a rough draft of you know if we do require this you know these are this is what we need um couple of the home school gentlemen that were there looked over it you know they said they were okay with it
042if there's something that we would like to change then that's more or less why we would want to go back and if there's something one of us will want to change on this then we could go back discuss it with them and go from there but yeah some of the the biggest challenges with the policy are um approving the curriculum that's being used different home school parents use different curriculums so that's something that um you know initially getting started we would have to work through um we do have in there that they would have to take at least two courses per semester one of them being a core course um the concern that was had with Administration was we hope if a student involved in in athletics they'll want to think strength training and we
043would like to see them involved in more than just Zer hour strength training so that that was the rational behind that um of course getting grade checks then for eligibility every Friday we would need that by 3M each Friday and then of course they have to meet all their ihsa and IA requirements yeah yeah so drug testing we would have to work through a few Hoops there too but everything's doable how does the two courses work in terms of the day schedule it would depend on what they want to take uh in my mind if ideally they would be back to backend on what they're taking if they're taking something that's not back to back we sure would would invite them to stay at school and do their home school work if they can do
044that um and make it a valuable time for them so it was mentioned you know 160 kids when they first brought that up and that was that's fton County and they they say that they thought there would be around 40 students 80% of those will be middle school students or younger and they actually felt like once those kids get to seventh and eighth grade they want to return to school anyway yes so it would be affecting our younger younger grades not the high schools much yeah I think the middle school schedule is a little bit more challenging in making this work seventh and eighth grade is is easier than fifth and sixth grade especially if it's fifth grade student W to participate with two classes uh fifth grade they don't have typical class periods they
045have longer periods of time in ela and math than in 6 7th and 8th um so there would be some of those Logistics to work out also if anybody has any thoughts um or questions please reach out and like I say we'll have it on the April agenda next month for a discussion and the committee will meet again after that nice job on that it's pretty straightforward nice job okay building and grounds committee meeting update yeah so Friday we had a very good building and grounds committee meeting um couple things I do want to highlight uh High High School in East be pting at the high school on the north end of the building there's the new addition in the concrete and then we planned on doing just what east of the auto shop and
046extending further out east there was a small chunk of Paving in between what what the addition is and what's going to be done Jeff's going to pull it up here that would be left as old Paving and it's a a hodge podge of concrete from our black tops been torn up and some old black top that's broken up in there um we are recommending that we go ahead and do that that way it's all new concrete all the way through there since both sides will be done the estimate is about 60,000 additional dollars to do that area are you taking all that out or just you little BL it'll all have to go to be able to do it some of that's been ripped up because of drainage work you can see where it leads
047to the storm drain there the most effective way to do is is just take it all out take yeah there's more up towards the building too so it would be hard to PCH work it yeah there it is you want to go ahead and do that and have a sp bid and would you like it look all in one like one piece of basically so this is already planned up here as a parking lot and all the equipment's there the guys will already be there so you know for an additional 60,000 we can actually make all of this flow I like this is new all this stuff is might as well take care of it while we [Music] thinking has been out and looked at it it can be sealed you can see the rust
048on the roof so the rust is a concern it's going to continue basically a foam cover over that part where it's rusting at it'll run the length of the bus garage and then seal it um we believe we'll get anywhere from 10 to 15 additional years out of that roof by doing it the one risk in it is there the company will not warranty to work because the rust coming through already um the only other option would be to replace the entire roof and all the insulation under the insulation has gotten wet from the leops so it's the committee's recommendation to proceed with that repair um we think for the cost It's very effective and then while they're doing that also having pressure wash the well Barn side of it I believe it what about
049$2,500 to pressure wash that at the same time 22 and that that project would not have to be B out basically with the coding you know we can spend 26,000 hopefully have a decent Ro for eight to 10 years or R the entire thing off spend almost 300,000 and put a new roof fund if you think about it you get 10 years out of it at 26,000 that's pretty good that's pretty good pretty how you okay yes okay um Alice singers saw Jim floor Brad's been working with the flry Finishing Company before they were thinking it'd be um ballpark $75,000 U they're now telling us we can get it sanded down and repen us for $40,000 and we'll paint it however we want so the price has actually come down on something which is for
050very ex give papers yeah so if we want to proceed with that we just you know we don't need to approve a design tonight but we just need to talk to them and get them on the calendar probably September September okay they said it' take approximately three weeks start to finish and we will lighten the floor right yeah yeah absolutely I asked that question he said over time you'll get the yellowing again no matter what type of surface they use um but I said we want to keep it as light as possible for as long as possible yes okay here it comes and it's our hope to get two or three designs and be able to bring those back to the board when it's time and have the board select do we need that we
051did you say we need to pick the design the board eventually event like say we'll we'll put we'll uh have a couple of things designed get our approval on them and then have the final design approved by the board what were you thinking I was thinking do we really need to be designing floors I mean I get I get after the office the high school office we probably could get engaged in that but say if you want us to pick we'd be more than willing to but out Dallas FL is a big deal for us and a big deal for our community yeah M we're think about putting your picture Cent for wow if that's the case don't make that mistake and his wrestling uniform god um The Gap building was probably the biggest topic
052of discussion uh Jeff worked through the alternative process of the um design build option uh that has not gone very well uh the numbers we were able to get were probably back in the same ballpark by the time there's additional design piece on it pay the third party to run that um it's the building and grounds committee Rec recommendation at this time to for Rod I to sit down with Matt long Ander from Gramm and Hyde see what we can scale back in that project if we can and then go ahead and proceed with bidding that out and see what the numbers actually come in at um as a board you don't have to accept any bids so if they come in high and you're not happy with those you can reject all of them
053and not do the project and so we actually bid it out we don't feel like we really going to know what that project's going to cost it's fine which building got moved the G Shack the G Shack the C building playground equipment we had a discussion about that uh our number one concern is the piece of equipment at Lincoln School that has the ramp the wooden ramp buil up to it we don't believe we can get that replaced this summer at this point last year when we were trying to do the prek playground at East F school um we ordered it the equipment for now that still didn't come in until almost August um we would like to go ahead and start planning on replacing that piece of equipment in the summer of 26 um
054potentially along with another piece of equipment at westv school that's a concern and then it is is I'll say My Hope um that we then start get a number from the board to commit X dollars a year towards playground equipment and start working on building out that rotation I would like to do that as well yeah I mean we talked about that right just like we did on roofs and other things where we weren't maintaining the buildings you know whatever eight nine 10 years ago we weren't in a good process where we went ahead and started laying out the long-term plan I think we need to do things same thing with the playground equipment and just invest a little bit of time a little bit over a long time and um get things in a
055better condition than they are today okay all right all right uh last thing I have and we didn't talk about this at building grounds but I think it's a very appropriate time to talk about the high school fire alarm system we've been having issues with update on that it was we hope fixed today by Thompson Electric um we already had planned to put a new panel in it's actually two panels here the high school it's going in over spring break um but the issues we've had over the summer we're also going to replace all the sensors in the ceilings so we're not sure what that's going to cost you we're looking into it if the bid gets over $50,000 or the cost gets over $50,000 then we'll be coming you for an approval for that
056bid it is considered emergency work at this point so we would not have to bid it out we could stick with the company that we with with the three4 es by the bo so hopefully it stays under those thresholds if it doesn't then we we come to for approval so that that is in the process of getting fixed and hopefully the repair um fixes it for now just as a reminder we do have the IMs AC project going on the Canton High School Rook the CTE Renovations and of course the projects that were approved tonight so we have anywhere from I would say $4 to5 million worth of work plan for this summer again it's going to be a busy summer questions okay information items a freedom of information request from Alum D data yeah
