001You want me to move down? >> Yeah, move down. >> But I like it. >> You've asked enough questions tonight. You get your limit. >> I You have been muted. >> Craig has a remote over there. Just >> not yet. >> He's the first one. >> Yeah. Just wait. Yeah. When Craig's ready to go home, he's just going to shut all the power in. >> So Lory's got the power started. >> All right. You guys ready? Go ahead and get started. All right, Harry. Harry, we'll start with the prayer and then we'll do the uh we start over and you'll do the pledge of allegiance. If >> you would join me in prayer. Lord, we thank you for this beautiful day. We thank you for the rain we've had here and crops look great. Lord,
002we just are thankful to live in a country where we can have the freedom to meet like this and be representatives of the people in our community. Help us to make good decisions today and bless all of our teachers and staff this summer that they can get rested up and ready for another year. Jesus name. Amen. >> Amen. >> 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. Right. So, we have the agenda for tonight. If there are no changes to the agenda this evening, >> make a motion to approve the agenda as stated. >> Second. >> Okay. >> Any questions? All in favor? >> Approval of the minutes. >> I make a motion to approve
003the minutes. >> Second. >> Any questions? All in favor? uh opportunity for public comment. There is no one signed up, so we can move along to the reports. As you'll see in my report, the end of month balance for June was $22,58,96787. That is up from previous months primarily because we did have some CDs that came back into our accounts and we also received our property tax payments for June. Uh, one of those payments for the debt service goes right out the the back door to make our bond payments, but the operations does stay with us for at least a little while. Uh, investments as far as what we still have in CDs totals 3,555,837. Uh, interest received from the bank for this month, this month being June, $72,144.7. what we received on the two
004bonds that came back into our accounts. Uh the one that was from our funds and by our funds I mean it was a combination of education debt service and operations. We received $33,63343 for the one that was from the uh bond monies $70,13462. So, if we total what we received in CD interest for the year, the last six months, uh, as well as what we received from the bank, uh, we're looking at $541,32030. Um, I have told you in the past, we keep getting told that interest rates are going to come down. Uh, but some decisions are getting made kind of above us, the federal government, where the Fed has kind of lengthened out that draw down schedule. So, we'll see where that goes. As I've also told you before, and I'll remind you now,
005uh, we're in a process of bringing the CD money back into the accounts. Once we have a better feel for where the the Fed is going to go with interest rates, it's very likely we'll want to go back into CDs. But right now, we think our best bet is to hold on to those funds uh until again the picture of what the future looks like as far as interest rates is a little more clear. Uh if we look at our total funds uh with the CDs along with the cash balances total being 25,614,8487 the payroll claims being submitted for your approval total 1,265,264.78. Vendor claims being submitted for your approval total 5,217,453.94. Uh that is the biggest claims that I've given you guys since I've been here. Uh reason for that is over a million
006of that is going to be for what's going on in the roofs, the envelope and electric work going on. Uh our bond payments make up about two and a half million of that. Again, those are the reasons why that is as high as what it is. A couple of things to report out. Uh fiscal year has obviously ended, which means we've got a lot of reporting. Uh form 9 is finished. will start working on the AFR. We've also got reports that go to our our bargaining union, DGF, as well as the teachers association. Uh we try to use this time at the end of the fiscal year as kind of a checkpoint uh compare where we've been in years past uh analyze the trends and then also kind of project out what is changing with
007SEA1, other legislative changes and what tweaks to our long-term plans we need to make. Open enrollment for the insurance. We're two weeks away from that starting. I'll report more out as we've got some details, but I can report now that LTD and life rates will stay the same. Dental rates will increase slightly. Uh vision will go up. Medical, the big one, we don't know about yet. Uh Mark's attending a meeting for our trust on Thursday where they'll break the news with us. Uh we expect an increase. We hope it's minimal, but that's something we'll obviously report out when we get it. Uh shred day for this year uh was two weeks ago. Uh we shred 217 boxes of long-term storage. Uh last year that was 169 and the year before that it was 114. And
008every year I've told you all next year will be less because we've done so much this year and the next year we do more. So I'm going to hold back and not say that. I will say that uh other people got the word that we were clearing out and I think their storage is kind of been limited. So I know the high school brought over a lot uh special ed was went through their files and added to the pile, but this is something that we've kind of detailed in the past. That's been put off for a long time. So I'm happy to say we are putting a dent to it and we can take you into the storage rooms. They're much more organized. There's more room. Uh and and Vicky Hill deserves all the credit
009for this. She's really taken the bull by the horns and done a lot of work around this. Uh last thing I'll report out is concerning our funding floor and teacher compensation. As a reminder, the state says that you have to meet and or exceed what you spent in teacher salaries from one year the next. We did it. Uh the other data point they want to see is that when it comes to teacher compensation, so salary, but now plus benefits, you are paying out over 62% of what you receive in revenue from the state within the education fund. I'm happy to say that we met it again this year. We've always met both those points. Uh but I will mention that I'm not sure I'm able to sit here next year and say the same thing
010because some things the state is changing. uh one of which what we pay out in Kasich salaries a lot of that we won't be able to count this next year so we counted them this year we can't count them next year you're starting kind of a hole that you've got to climb out of and it's a pretty sizable hole so there may be a one-year kind of asterric where we don't meet the funding floor uh with teacher compensation we have the same hurdle in that the case accounts are coming off and we can't count all of them anymore plus the curriculum funds uh will account towards the denominator that goes into calculating your 62% when you really don't don't want to or can't pay out those funds because you've got to spend it towards curriculum.
011So, I I'll detail that more once we get there. It'll be close on both, but I did want to mention that now and some of the things that uh we're having to address due to changes that the state is making. Any questions? More than happy to go into detail. Otherwise, I submit everything for your approval. Beyond the Kasich stuff, is that C issues causing this funding changes? >> Is it what >> the C issues? Seas SEA1. >> Uh not in this case. This case is >> the what we pay out that is the other school's portion. We've always been able to count. Next year they're saying we cannot. >> And that was something that was changed the legislative session prior to that. They changed it prior, but it doesn't go in effect until this current
012fiscal year. >> So, that was a couple sessions ago that changed and now we're seeing the trickle from catching up. >> Okay. Need a motion? >> I'll make a motion to approve the treasures report. >> I'll second. >> Any questions? >> Thank you, Kyle. >> You need a vote. Approve that. >> Oh, yeah. I'm sorry. All in favor on TV. I get nervous. All right, Craig, you're up. >> Oh, you're next. Oh, >> always looks like >> you're always trying to cut. >> Um, so you've had the opportunity to read my report. Um, done a lot of interviewing, uh, prepared professional positions, trying to rally our administrators into, um, kind of interviewing in a an arena type setting. So we all have opportunities to kind of see who's the best fit for what classrooms. Um
013we still have some a few classrooms left to find positions for. So we're still working on that. Um as far as all the grants and the applications, those are all submitted. Title the preappility. I did apply for a robo kind um autism grant. We should hear about that um midepptember I found out today. So we'll see how that goes. Um the other piece that I've been working on is just looking into social skills developments for some of our behavior classrooms. Um I know I put social emotional curriculum. I talked a little bit to Lynn about that beforehand. Um we do have the AEEN which we're still using the applied neuroscience um by Dr. Lori, but we also have a lot of students that are specialed with IEPs that are coming in from ABA facilities and
014they lack those social skills. And so right now we really don't have anything in those classrooms for those teachers to kind of pull from. And so just investigating what's out there, you know, There are some things that we can trial or pilot to try to see what works and what doesn't and what the teachers feel comfortable with. >> Any questions? >> I had a question. >> Yes, >> Lindsay. Um, I noticed that another uh school corporation has brought in ABA therapists to work with their students. Is this what you're referring to possibly? Well, we have theou that we can have that we had approved here I think in May. And so we have we have the opportunity to have if parents and the ABA facility all agree to our to have them come in to
015do like a transition um from ABA to schoolbased services. What we're finding is they're not always transitioning at kindergarten. there may like we have one right now that will be transitioning and he's going to be nine in February. He's had no school experience and so throwing him into a school experience where he's coming from being oneon-one with somebody in an ABA facility is difficult um and it's difficult for everybody. So if we can make that transition a little bit smoother with using their RBTs their res registered behavior technicians to kind of help make that transition piece a little bit smoother. That's what we'd like to do with that, but not necessarily having them here all the time. No. >> Okay. Thank you. >> Any other questions on my report? >> Great. >> Okay. Good evening.
016Uh first, I guess I'll I'll jump down. Of course, we're I want to give a shout out to Sound of Music. They they did a great job helping getting all this uh going. um but it be the first time we're live. So um I want to thank them for their their help and their service on that. Uh secondly, I'd like to go over um some of the items we've been working on. A lot of it has been setting up the uh classrooms, getting them ready. Everybody goes through, I know I say this every year, everybody goes through, the custodians do a great job. They pull all the all the PCs out, they clean, and then they put everything back in. Then we have to go all the way back around and set everything back up
017again in every classroom every year. So, um, it's quite the task. And I give a shout out to the custodians. They do a great job of getting that cleaned up and back in in the classroom so we can then get back in there and set everything back up for the teachers. So, I just wanted to to mention that Skyward rollover took place on July 2nd. Online registration opened on the 9th. Uh the schedules are scheduled to be schedules are scheduled the their class list to be open on August 1. And um one other thing I wanted to mention is we're working on with Natalie Nuland on the website design and the new layout. That's moving right along and um and we're making some progress on that. So um that's where we stand right now. Very
018busy. Oh, and we're getting the iPads organized. We've started with some class lists in certain buildings, trying to get those in the classes and ready for deployment for the fall. >> Any questions? >> Got it. Okay, Craig. Thank you, Barrett. >> Yeah, thank you. Good evening. Uh, couple things going on. I know we're just a couple weeks away from welcoming our new staff members and then bringing back in our teachers and then our students. So, uh, we've been working diligently, uh, in our offices. Um we've got um our new staff safety orientation coming up for our new staff members. Um we also have substitute orientation which will be coming around here very soon. Um and working with our new substitutes on our new sub program called Red Rover. Um on the transportation front, uh right
019now hats off to Cindy McQuary. She's uh in the process of training four new bus drivers. So that takes a lot of time, but we will have two of the four ready to start the school year. So, we're excited about that. And um as of right now, everything's going very well there. Knock on wood. Uh prepare preparing a lot of our routes. Um we've got a lot of new students this year. So, we're going to be getting ready for them along with our kindergarteners. And um on the curriculum front, we've got a lot of new legislation that came out July 1. So, I'm just trying to get those things in order for um the building principles when they get back in so we can review that. And I'm looking at I learn and assessment data.
020So, um, it is the summer. Uh, sometimes it slows down a little bit, but we're still moving right along and and staying busy. So, uh, that's my report for July. Pending your questions. >> Any questions? >> Thank you, Barrett. >> Thank you, >> Mark. All right. Thank you. Um, you've had an opportunity to see my report, and I do want to before I go into my report, give kudos to all the directors and and uh Barrett, assistant superintendent, for all their teams and the work that they're doing. There is a lot that has been going on throughout this summer in every one of the departments and um uh it's just great to see uh the progress and the uh steps forward that we're making as a district. Um but um besides going to a lot
021of different finance seminars and learning about Senate Bill One and um I think we just got an email about bargaining on the 26th of August. I mean, we're getting all sorts of information, trying to decipher the changes that are are going on. And um the nice thing is we're in a place, I think, here at this corporation where it isn't a reason to panic, but we just have to navigate the storm and figure out our best uh course of action. Uh but with that being said, uh we do have a lot of really amazing things that are going on um that you might be able to see some updates here. And I want to share uh some uh before and after pictures. And so I want to thank Stephen Cecil. He uh was um the
022pilot of our drone uh to take some of these pictures. And so if you look um on your left uh that's from June 12th and then a month later July 14th um you can see the ephus work here at the auditorium that is done um where we are basically tearing everything off. Uh also the roof is is being redone as well in that area. But um the ephus obviously um has had a lot of moisture. It looked like it was dirty, but it was actually like wet and just needed to be replaced. So, that tan and I don't know if you would call it a beige or a red or I don't know what specific color it is, but I can tell you it is now elephant ear and dark bronze. So, so for my
023exterior expertise there, um we are changing uh some of the color schemes uh to um put a nice fresh coat on on the school. So, that's um the middle school auditorium area. Um at the primary school you can see June 12th uh the old roof um in on your left and you can see pretty much we have probably I would say 85% 90% of that roof completed just that very bottom section and then the cafeteria uh that's elevated uh needs to be completed on that but the roof would be done um here very shortly um at the primary school um at the middle school. Um, Stephen had a couple different angles here, so I couldn't really give you some good comparisons there. But if you look at those red uh metal roofs, those actually will
024be um the bronze uh color. Uh that's what will be changed out with some uh some new metal there as well. But you uh can see all of that. Uh there's pieces of roofing material that will be on there that they'll do um new roofing in that space as well. And then the um penthouse areas as they're referred to will also have the ephus changed to the elephant ear uh color as well. At the intermediate school on the left you can see the old roof on the right. Uh we don't have nearly as much. It looks like we have about half of the north side. Um we call that uh section nine actually in our our reports. But uh the north side of the roof is probably about half done. They're anticipating uh that entire
025side being done by the end of the week. Uh we obviously have um a jump start coming and so we'll be able to utilize that hallway and the new hallway that's not having the roof replaced in that area and we'll uh keep uh the fifth grade hallway which is over uh section 13 or the south section of um the intermediate school uh vacant. And um depending on the weather will determine if they jump into that one now or wait. Um but we've had some strange weather. We've had rain and we've had extreme heat and that's not good for roofing work. So that's kind of throwing some curve balls at us there. Um this was just an example of the south lot. You can see that at one point in time as they were restriping, there's
026the football field that is painted on our south parking lot um with the stripes and then later uh Stephen captured a picture that has the numbers on it as well and band students will be here uh next week uh so they'll have the right numbers to be able to march to on that. um at the high school. Uh you can see that we are painting the um the I can't even remember the right term for um the panels. Um but there these are panels that are getting painted to match the Ephus work. And so you'll see on the left, these are both from July 14th. the left is the west side of the high school and on the right side is the east side of the high school that's being repainted there. And then at
027the high school as well, we're doing a lot of um concrete work. This was the corner of um where the robotics room is around door 22, door 21. It had a huge crack and a lot of displaced brick. And so they're doing the tuck point work there. uh replacing all the joints around the fieldhouse and the middle school. Um some of the challenges that we're faced with with the brick work and we are going to have delays and um some um some things that we're going to have to work through is because there's a shortage of our red brick. >> Wow. And so right now they're uncertain of when that's going to be made and also if it's not going to be made then we've talked about staining possibilities. There's all sorts of things that
028are going on there. This is going to get done because we actually had some attic stock that they're utilizing for that. But we also have a lot of work around all of our windows at the middle school when we talked about the uh the joints that were put in wrong. they were like aligned with the windows and so that was cracking. Instead of having it 18 inches, the the stress joints need to be about 18 in um beyond the window. So those are all getting redone but we don't have the brick to do it yet and so that may get kicked down till next year. Also we have some moisture issues around the middle school where uh the moisture barrier wasn't done properly. And so if you go around the middle school, you'll see all
029the the um the bricks that are standing. I can't even remember what that's called now, too. I'm missing out on some of these things. Um but like the the bricks that are standing vertically instead of horizontally are all chipping and breaking apart. And so some of that work was to put the correct moisture barrier in there to preserve that that brick or put new brick in. But again, we're waiting for the brick. So, there is going to be a delay with the mason work and we're trying to do as much as we can um in this summer period. And then also at the high school on the other side of that um area that you saw on the previous slide, that's the inside that they're actually working on too with the cinder blocks as well.
030Also, at the high school, uh the senior hallway, um we if you remember, a lot of the tile was popping up. there was some moisture issues and uh just a lot of tile breaking. That's a very highly traveled area when you think about going between the south gym, central office, the high school. Um and so what we did there is we've put in luxury vinyl tile. And so the reason we put that in is because it doesn't need to be waxed. And we can officially say that the entire downstairs hallways, commons areas at the high school do not need to be waxed anymore. We're just waxing waxing classrooms in the cafeteria at the high school. So, from a maintenance standpoint, that is going to free up time for our custodians. Like, I know I talked
031to Brent the other day and he's actually painted uh four different classrooms and has been able to do some of the other things that we seem to never have enough time to get to in the summer. So, so that was encouraging to um get to that level. Um we did the same thing over at the intermediate school. So all that terazzo has now been stripped down to a point where we just have to buff that and we don't wax it anymore. So we're trying to become more efficient in our um um our practices of maintenance. And then I I I had these two pictures. I had to just look at these pictures and on the left obviously is um on the east side of 600 and then obviously with the high school, middle school, central
032office, all of our athletic facilities and then on the right our elementary schools. Um we have a lot to be proud of. Like that's a beautiful campus. I I'm not going to lie. U I think it's an absolutely beautiful campus. And so when you really look at that, and I know Stephen's not a professional photographer and he was able to capture that with the drone, but I think we have a lot to be proud of. We have a lot to be thankful for. Thank you to the board for letting us do these projects and and and provide our community with an absolutely beautiful campus and and a place for our kids to experience amazing things. So, I just put those two slides on there at the end just so you can kind of look at
033that and say, "Yeah, that's that's pretty awesome stuff." So, that's my report. So, if you have any questions for me, I'd love to answer any questions you might have. >> Any questions? >> Next on list is curricular material adoption approval. >> So, um we've had uh the primary school, intermediate school, and high school um some of the reading materials. Um, actually we've had them here for two months uh because our board meetings are 28 days apart and we have a 30-day review. So, we've actually had what is that 56 days uh to review the materials and so we're asking for your approval to um have these reading materials uh for those three schools. >> So, move second. Any questions? >> I had a question. Um, there is nothing listed for the middle school. So, the
034middle school didn't get any. >> They're not asking for anything at this time. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Thank you. >> Any other questions? All in favor? Lunch charge guidelines for next year? >> Yes. Mr. Lazar has um given an update on um the lunch charge guidelines for this year uh asking for a 25 cent increase uh for lunches. Uh this is the first increase that we've actually had since the 2021 school year. So just asking for your approval. Uh and then I think there's a 30 cent increase for um adults in that. I'll make a motion to approve the uh 2526 lunch charge guidelines. >> A second. >> Any questions? >> I have a question. >> So Mark, for how many what percent and reduced lunch do we have? You know about >> we are
035right around 35% somewhere around there. >> So do they care how much this is? Is there as far as getting that paid for? that I don't think I don't believe there's any s >> any other questions all in favor >> so um we received the um teacher residency grant from uh the higher ed uh department uh this would be for $45,000. They actually haven't given me theou yet, but I wanted to go ahead and approve that because I know we're going to be starting school ahead of time. We've done this for at least the last four years. Um, and there's been a lot of success to this. But what I've done is I've put the um the grant award um here in front of you so you can see that. And then um the practice
036and the processes will be the same on how we interact with um IUK and Ball State. And so just asking for your approval that when theou is actually issued to us by the state that we'll go ahead and accept the $45,000 to be able to pay our three resident teachers. >> Make a motion we accept the teacher grant from the state. >> Second. >> Any questions? >> All in favor? updated bonding of staff. >> This is the renewal update for this year. As a reminder, please we do this every fiscal year and changes during the year. We'll notify you that this uh builds the legal compliance that we have to do. This also protects us against any financial loss in case something would happen. >> I'll make a motion to approve the updated bonding of
037staff. >> I'll second. Any questions? All in favor? Yes. Authorization to hire staff. >> So, we still have a couple positions to fill. Uh some special ed pair of positions. We are in the process of hiring or interviewing for high school science, high school social studies, middle school math, and we have a reading specialist position over at the um primary school. And there could also still be action and movement, you know, over these next couple weeks. And um each year we run into uh we have school starting before our next board meeting. And so I've asked in the past for authorization to hire staff in that interim and then obviously bring those individuals to you and updates you as uh those things happen. So I'm just asking for your approval for that consideration. >> So
038moved. >> Second. >> Any questions? All in favor? 2526 faculty handbooks. >> Yes. Um asking for your approval for the handbooks that are presented. >> So second. >> So I would like to make a stipulation. One of the things we talked about in another meeting I think and I talked to Mark. So our coaches handbook has something in there about appropriate and inappropriate language. None of these handbooks have that. So I would like to make a stipulation that we add something in there that u you know that swearing and bulg language is not allowed. I'll let Mark decide what that language should be. But I think every one of these handbooks should have something in there. >> I'm I'm fine with adding that. >> Okay. >> I got a question too. If we could in
039the future because there's so many handbooks to go through if we could get most of them showed us show at the beginning what they were changing the reader digest version which helped to some a lot you know but some of them did not so you had to go through completely word by word and so I just transportation custodial and special vehicle special vehicle didn't seem to have any changes so I'm just asking if the future if we could ask for that I know we talked about some of this last month but not to this level. So, just curious. >> Yeah, we can definitely do that. >> Okay. >> I had a question. Um, the middle school, >> first of all, are we still allowing eighth graders to take Japanese? >> I don't believe we are.
040>> Okay. That was >> Is that still in the >> Yes. Another one. Um, in the middle school they still say uh to contact Barbara Onion and so it doesn't have that new sub >> who contact for subs in there. >> Yep. Good catch. Okay. >> And then also it also says u we use Alto Alto United Methodist Church as a place to send kids and that is no longer in existence. But we had talked about that at another board meeting and it's I don't know the name of the church at Ste. I don't remember >> North View. North View. >> All right. So Mark, when we have changes, how does that get rolled out to the people who are impacted? >> I know um beginning of the year they have their beginning of the
041year staff meetings and they go through handbooks and updates uh from that standpoint for staff members. And I know like even uh Barrett has a uh sub substitute meeting. I think you actually have two of them scheduled um for this this summer to go through the handbooks. um if anybody is um driving the SPVS, so the special purpose vehicles, they have a handbook. We go through the handbook with them before they can even sign off to be able to drive those things. So each of the directors or principles go through those at the beginning of the year meetings. So pretty much the changes we make through during the year wouldn't really be rolled out till the beginning of the year. >> Unless there's something that's that's changed that's like um something that's urgent that we
042need to change. We we would send that out or do that in a staff meeting, but the handbooks don't change midway through the year. It's just kind of an annual annual update. >> Any other questions? All in favor? K-C joint service agreement. >> Yes. Just asking for your approval for our KEKC joint service agreement um with um all with Western and the other six schools that form K-C. >> Any questions? >> All in favor? Overnight field trip request. Yeah, Mr. Heman is asking for the 2526 athletic teams to um have uh permission for overnight field trip request based off of different circumstances whether it's through state tournaments or however uh we um have different competitions that may require that throughout the year. So asking for your approval. >> So move. >> Second. >> Any questions?
043>> So do we have one for robotics? We we will get one. I know I know Mr. Real did one uh last year, so he'll he'll want to submit. >> Is there anything else that needs one or just athletics and >> um band? >> Band would probably do one or band choir would be another one. Um you know, I know Aaron tries to do it right before the start of all athletics and so um it kind of depends on when their seasons are. So, you'll have a couple others that will will come come to you um I'm sure here in the next couple months. >> Is cheer included with this as well? Okay, that's what I wanted to make sure. >> Yeah, that falls into that umbrella. Okay, >> got a question too. Uh we
044had this question a couple months ago and I thought we were going to get some more direction on it, but maybe I misunderstood. the school policy on housing, uh, the guidelines where those are at, like who's in the rooms, how many are in a room, chaperones, that kind of thing. And I trust our staff, don't get me wrong. I trust our students, but what do we have in writing to protect us, protect them against the policies on how that's handled? So, >> I think that's a a great question and I don't have an answer for you, but I'm I'm gonna have to >> I think it's important. >> Yeah, 100%. >> Yeah. For rules on chaperones and sharing rooms. >> Yeah. Who's how many in a room? That kind of thing. So, >> uh all
045in favor board policy second read. So these are the um volume 37 um policies that we presented last month and just asking for uh your approval on this second read. >> Make a motion to approve uh the board policies stated. >> Second. >> Any questions? >> Yes. Well, it's not relative these policies, but since we have policies, >> we have talked and it might have been I might be the only one that's left, but I know we talked at one time about having if you have a a male coach for female athletes, there should be at least one male or female coach on the staff, but I don't think we have that in a policy anywhere. >> I'm not sure. I think that's a practice that we do have though. Yeah, I would like to
046see that incorporated into our policies somewhere. >> I thought that was in one of these policies. That's actual statement. >> Yeah, if you recog what you said. I got a question on 511. Um, so I was trying to understand they're taking out the part about the tuition being paid by someone who comes into the corporation from outside and then stays with a family or something. So by taking that out um, anybody can come and stay with anybody and go to our corporation without tuition or >> so the dollar follows the student now. So that's why before >> you could charge >> tuition. Okay. >> Years ago, that's changed. This is just update. Yeah, it's changed for a while. So, they're just updating this policy. So, as the dollar follows a student, that's where our ADM
047count becomes important. And that's the money that we receive for that student rather than somebody paying out of district tuition. >> Okay. >> So, the ADM covers all of our students then. >> Yep. >> That's how we're covered. So, okay. Thanks. So Mark, there was a new policy that state passed that said you can no longer prohibit a student from transferring for athletic reasons, but we don't take high school transfers anyway, do we? >> We take high school transfers. Yeah, >> I was thinking at one point >> and we still have the same we still have the same standards for any transfer where we ask for transcripts that show attendance, discipline, >> and grades. And then if we have room in that grade level or capacity, we can >> So we still go by the
048200 >> capacity. >> That's that's our goal. Yeah, >> our goal or both? >> It's our goal because after you get to a certain number, then all of a sudden you're looking at more staff or less staff and so on and so forth. So, we've and right now we're at many of our grade levels, we're not at that 200, but we're also monitoring um class sizes like we want smaller class sizes in kindergarten than we do in fifth grade. So, we're monitoring those numbers. >> Thank you. >> All in favor of the second uh read unanimous personnel Yeah. Asking for your approval for the personnel that's presented before you. >> Make a motion we accept the personnel recommendations. >> Second. >> Any questions? All in favor? >> All right.
