001Uh we're going to jump right to six for adjustments to the agenda. We're going to um move executive session till to after uh the staff reports. Um okay. That way their guests can do that and then we'll we'll go into executive session. Um so let's see. Uh, as far as any comments, I just want to say, you know, graduation was great. It's, you know, end of this school year. Um, just want to thank all staff, students, everybody for what a great for a great another great year. Um, we really appreciate it. I know everybody's excited to start summer vacation. And uh, so I'm not going to say much more um because Megan will tell me to just keep moving anyway. Um, but seriously, thank you for all your hard work and I hope everyone has
002a great summer. the uh minutes. There's two of them, May 19th as well as our um big one on the 27th. Uh any questions on the minutes? Yeah, go ahead. Really a question, not a correction for the minutes, but Katie, is there any update that you have for us for the title one funds that are in there? One, two, four. I have two of them. Um I haven't sent an update because I'm still waiting on title two. That's a question mark. Um, we received about 5,000 more for Title One than we normally get and around I don't have the number in front of me. I can look it up. Um, but about 2,000 more for Title 4. So, right now, it's good news. I'm not sure why Title 2 is taking so long. Um, so,
003okay. But as soon as we have that, I'll make sure that Patrick has them all um to put in a Friday report. Since we won't have another meeting, good news. Um, any other questions on the minutes or corrections? If I can have a motion, make a motion to approve the minutes as written. Okay. May I have a second? Second by Okay, all in favor. All right, that passes. Um, we just did adjustments to the agenda. Oh, the other thing about adjustments to the agenda under 10.0 old business for today. Um, Jennifer brought up a good point. Uh, an opportunity to either ask questions or make comments because, uh, the administration does a lot of hard work in bringing us those board reports about each of the schools. So, just an opportunity for the board to
004comment or ask questions if you have any. Um, because there is some really good stuff in there. So, we'll do that tonight at 10 point 10.0. Okay. Um, public session if there's anybody here. I don't see anyone here to for a public session. So, we'll go on right away to uh staff report uh 8.1 the Dyke Newell School Bath Tech Coding and I'm going to hand over to Pat. So, I'd like to thank Lisa Hardman who's our librarian at Dyke Newell and Matt Fry Davis who is in our technology department here at the high school. Well, all over the district really. Um, we've been trying to get this to happen for a little while to have you have you hear about their coding that they have and their BBOT program that they have and the
005kind of the integration between the two schools. So, I'll have you guys come on up and thank you for being here. default. Um, so first, um, I know a little bit about the program Girls Can Code. Does that have Does that go to a a younger level? I mostly only heard about it in the upper grades. I can definitely It's a great It's a great program. I don't know if it works with what you you guys are doing or not. Um and and then my other question was so one part of coding that I found particularly diff difficult was um being able to write everything down and being able to say like to find out where something broke because that was like the this is all tactile and wonderful but being able to coding is
006that language piece plus the action piece. So, when you're writing things down, do they ever do they ever write down um you know, I push this but like do they do they ever get like as they get more comfortable with this, do they ever get a chance to kind of write more about what they're doing? I think and it really depended on this the kids. We had some where they really like it was linear. They moved it and they push the button. And we have some who started with that kind of sheet that you see vertically. It's kind of one line for action. Yeah. And they would fill it out that way and they realize that's not terribly efficient. So they might write forward five times, five times. Yeah. So they didn't necessarily reflect on
007the practice if I messed up here, but they could actually look back in ter um to answer the girls to code. Um I haven't looked at all the curriculum, but part of the reason we chose Bbots is most of the beginning level programming stuff requires a certain level of reading. And so Right. Um Oh yeah. And Yeah, that adds an additional barrier on top of the other topics. So, we picked something that was tactile because then all the students could come and experience it rather than you have to be able to read at a certain level to even understand what's being asked. Okay. Thank you. Good point. Thanks. I was just wondering, thanks for that presentation. Uh how how many or how many sessions or how much time does each grade level get or did
008they get this year? But I use them all the time. And My god. I'm curious um because sometimes these sorts of projects you get some really surprising students who are not always the ones who um regularly understand something first but they might with this. Did you have any of those moments where you can think of a student or two who obviously not to say their name but they got to experience like a new confidence of figuring something out that um yeah I had some students I see them struggling with other things like who they think yeah because especially when you take the reading piece away that allows many more to access it and it's so fun you know too. So that's great. I'll do something really simple, too. Number 14, you know, that's how they
009start, right? Wow. Thank you. Did you have anything? That was that was fantastic. Thank you so much for sharing that. And I just love the uh the whole program. So, I hope it can uh continue and expand. Thank you so much. Thanks for taking the time. Thank you guys. Go ahead. Thank you once again for being here. Appreciate it. Uh next we have Mary Moran who is our uh leader facilitator of the leadership design team which is the group that um assesses our educational plan uh well helped create it and then assess it and then report out on the kind of the accountability factor of it. So Mary's going to give us an overview tonight. Um, so we do have our credit pathways program that many of you know about at the high school and
010we will be able to extend it down to the middle school next year by moving um some of our teachers around. And so uh Mr. Deer and Miss Haymon will be running what we're going to call AP, which is basically seventh and eighth grade credit pathways, but they don't do credits. Um, so it'll be the alternative pathway program. And they've um created a similar model with looking at data and backgrounds of students and doing interviews and selected their first cohort of students um to be able to start the program next year, which is really exciting. [Music] Great. Any questions from anybody? Go ahead, Jen. Always a question. Um, I was thinking about how few people voted for the budget in my town and I was trying to think of how that if that falls anywhere
011in terms of getting engagement from our communities and I'm trying to brainstorm on how to let people know more about what it is and what they're voting for. Um, but I was kind of wondering also too is that as we have staff leave in these communities, retire, um, so they're kind of still in our communities and still doing, I wonder if we could have engage former staff any better in terms of not for lack of better word, but an exit interview or something where we could really kind of keep them coming involved in the schools, but also kind of if they've been here for 30 years, get their perspective. And I don't know if that's a Does that happen? I don't I don't know. Yeah. Okay. We do that and that's how we sometimes get
012subs keep them involved in some way but get their perspective that then we share there's some themes and patterns we share those with our staff. Okay. All right. Thanks. Great. Any other questions? This is a great report. We really appreciate you coming in to update us on this. It's been great doing that all year and I assume we'll see you next year. Thank you so much. Have a great summer. Get over to Woolwitch. All right. Um, so I think now we'll do the uh executive session evaluation of officials employees under MRSA 4056A. If I can, and it's not going to be long, so don't worry. But if I can uh have a motion to move into executive session, we're just going to go over to culinary. I move that we I move that we move
013into executive session. Okay. And Oh, second. Second. Okay. All in favor? Okay. We're going to let you the conference room because that Oh, okay. Executive session. Okay. Um, unless there's further discussion, everybody. Okay. We're out of executive session. Thank you. And we're going to move right into 9.1 Superintendent's Report. Yeah. So, I just wanted to mention some really pos positive things towards the end of the year. I mean, Lou mentioned graduation, but um leading up to that process, I sent you guys some pictures, but um that tradition that we put into place, I want to say maybe seven or eight years ago now where we have our graduates from the schools that went whatever elementary school they went to, our middle school. I didn't realize they went to the middle schools, too. And so, they
014go to every single school. And again, like I said in my email to you, it's it's it's great for our staff to see these students come back. It's great for the little kids. Um, and also our graduates really enjoy it. So, it's not it's not like we have to bribe them to to go down to these schools. They enjoy it and it's a again it's a really rewarding thing at the end of a year. Uh, you saw in Nah's report the forest Fridays that they've been doing at Pittsburgh Elementary School with Nah's leadership. She kind of started that and she submitted an article to the Department of Education website and under school success stories highlighting their outdoor learning. And then we had two celebrations of learning. We had one at BMS and we had one
015at Fippsburg. And uh BMS Katie can speak as well, but I was thoroughly impressed with how articulate our students were, some of the projects they did, being able to walk us through. And then last Friday, the Ipsburg Elementary School last block of the day was was packed. I mean, the whole uh 209 was lined with cars. The parent turnout was was great. And the students, I mean, I learned a lot about seaweed, about lobsters, um, everything. And and they made some board games. Uh, they presented, they just they they knew what they were doing. And you saw in Nah's reports a lot of preparation leading up to, including field trips. Um, really made that um, work well. Why do they forest not Friday? Uh, the forest Friday is more just outdoor or those go out
016throughout the whole year. This is more an expedition on more ocean related things. Marine. Yeah. Yeah. And a lot of it is the older students maybe pairing up with the younger students and going out there and doing a lesson. Yeah. So that's why it's that. Yeah. The summer bridge program, you know what that is here at Bath Tech where students I think they have uh five hands-on activities across seven different BAT programs and the the program is already full. We have a waiting list of 15 20 students. So that will happen next week. Main sale assembly. I don't know if we talked about that, but that's the community award here. And we just like to congratulate David Flareity who is a local realtor, but also a longtime supporter of Morse and also the chair person
017for the blue and white golf tournament. Does a lot for our community. So congratulations to David. Um, in Eric's report, Morris was able to announce 89 scholarships that were managed by the alumni scholarship fund totaling approximately 300,000. And if you couple that with businesses, school groups, national scholarship awards awarded to the class of 25, uh, the total came out to be over $1 million, I believe, for the first time, which is which is really an incredible thing. Uh a couple other small not small items just a couple more things to mention at Woolwitch. Uh it was a it was neat to watch the two boats float last uh Thursday was it? Yeah, last week. Um and the students did a really nice job presenting and um it was it's always a great program and um
018thank Kurt and Main Maritime for that. And Woolwitch had a very successful DC trip this year. Came back and um nothing but positive news. And then the last thing is at Bath Middle School, um we have a STEM plus M grant and I'll tell you more about it in the fall when we know more, but it's uh the the second M stands for manufacturing and that is a 5-year grant that two schools in Maine were awarded. We were one of them and Lewon Middle School was the other. They'll probably expand to two or three more schools, uh, middle schools in the future, but this is going to be five years of funding for, uh, they outfit our current industrial arts, industrial arts place at BMS with brand new technology, new, uh, furniture, storage, curriculum, everything.
019And, um, for 5 years, we we have this program. It would provide a teacher as well, but we have a teacher. Um, so we'll be having that conversation about what happens with that. But we again we had our first meeting with the with the group last week and we are slated to do professional development this summer and hit the ground running possibly as early as the fall of of this coming year for uh well it would be in a cycle of a trimester but eighth graders would probably receive it first then seventh graders then sixth graders. Um, so it's STEM, it's it's C I don't know, Katie, it's it's already created units. It's coding, um, robotics, um, CO2 cars. I think there are eight different units that students work their way through to um and
020it's it's put on by the Department of Defense with another company essentially to try to create um younger students who are interested in those types of jobs that either would end up going through bathte or other industries um you know like naval engineering and things like that. Um, and so it's really geared towards those types of projects. So it's currently in schools in Virginia and then they wanted to expand to the northeast. So this is their way of doing this. So that it was Tim Gagen, our director of BAT that had conversations with them because it's again like Katie said, hopefully a feeder program for um BAFT in the future and so they wanted to again look at middle schools across the state. So we'll be training and doing professional development in conjunction with Lewon
021Middle School. Um, and also our teacher will have access to the to the Virginia teachers as well and enrolled as well. Not at this time. They they want to do six, seven, and eight at BMS. That's where they want to start. We've we've asked the question whether we could expand that, but I don't know um if that would be possible because we're using the current teacher that we have that needs to be there as a 1.0. Whether we could ever have a teacher over at Woolwitch Middle School to also help do this, I don't, you know, I this is where they're starting is at BMS. It also has um very particular uh location and room needs and I'm not sure and it has to be 90 hours um the curriculum. Yeah. So there's a lot
022of things that we don't know all the details yet but it has to be very specific and you have to meet requirements and they want to follow up with student data and and everything. So what's the total funding number? I don't know that yet. Yeah. I just know it's a fiveyear commitment on their part. update, probably have the teacher come in in the fall once we get going and give you more details. But it's it's exciting. And our um A, the new program I just spoke of at the middle school will also get to um be using that curriculum as well as part of their program. So they're also going to be trained. And is that a as well? The program middle school just be it would be offered in the future students like our
023district behavior programs if a student students want to do good fit school choice in the future. This first pilot year is just bath but in the future it will be open to any middle school student in the district coming to be correct. Yes. Yeah. And like life skills Jen our bassu bath students or fippsburg students that go to go to woolitch for for life skills. So it's sometimes it's about geography just for the younger but three through eight is still at Witch. Yeah. All right. Um, any other questions? Okay. Thank go ahead, Deb. There we go. See? See all these fun things? Now we have to figure out how to pay for it. All right. That's what I'm here to talk about. No. Um that's wonderful all these things going on. I end um I
024do want to say thank you to you all for another successful budget season. So um we got through another year and um so tonight we're going to look at the month of May and we've spent uh 36.5 million out of our budget which is 83%. Um, and it's in line with where we were last year as far as percentages, but I do have to say that we will not have as big of a balance um in expenses at the end of this year as um we did last year. So, we're closing that gap closer to what our actual budget is. Um, and then also on the revenue side, we're short a little on our well about almost 200,000 in tuition, which we talked about that earlier this year. Um, but so we'll we'll make everything
025we'll make it fine, but we will not have as big of a balance, which um that's what it's all about, right? We budget based upon what we what we hope will happen. And so we're in line with um that we'll be a little over in instruction and a little bit to the positive with special ed instruction. So a lot of it is, you know, how things have been charged out. Um 92% is what we brought in for revenue. Last year it was 94. And so that that little bit of a difference is the tuition revenue. Um but we will be even though we're short on tuition there's um we're supposed to get another 125,000 at the end of this month from subsidy for out of district placement students. So that will help close that overall
026gap and uh audit season's coming the week after next to start for the uh 2425 audit. So, moving right along. All the contracts went out. Um, so yeah, overall everything's going going well. Great to hear. Questions? Yeah. Any questions? Is can we get an end of year enrollment because I think this was like at the beginning of the year, right? Do we have a way to kind of compare where we were or has it changed? Maybe hasn't changed much. Um, we certainly can list where we're at at the at the end of the year if you I was just wondering or just curious if it's changed a lot if we because you know we do think it has came April and October. I don't think a whole lot but Okay. Okay. Thanks. Thank you. Any
027other questions for Deb? Thanks for everything. Appreciate it. Okay. Um, we have a 10.0 we added in with old business. Um, got any questions, comments about the board report? We appreciate um, getting the board report. You learn a lot about what's happening in all the schools. And if anybody had any comments or questions, now would be the time. You I think you had some, Jen. Yeah. Um we start with hips for just amazing that if they have co if they've coined the uh phrase crabat I think we should continue to use that at all possible moments. Um and my question for uh I was just thinking about the um hydro lettuce growing project that we had and just wondering it wasn't mentioned in here. Do we still have that at Fippsburg? It's still going on
028and Okay. It's a little sporadic in a couple locations. That's one of them. Um where we'd like to see it be used um yeah more than it's being used. Okay. I think I think it depends on the time of the year. It seems like in the winter when we're around the schools, we see a lot of the growing happening, which makes sense because they're using their own vegetables for their um their meals um when there's less fresh fruits and produce. But this time of year, a lot of them are working on their outdoor gardens or doing other things outside. Um I think one of the neatest parts about it too, um I know in high school life skills, they almost always have um theirs going is um they often will use it as a behavior
029plan incentive. There are some students who that's their reward is to go and tend to their garden and um help out the cafeteria which is a great um part of that that I don't think I had ever thought of when we first got those. So good. Well, thank you. I'm glad because I know we put a lot of extra funds into all those solutions and everything, but yeah. um BMS report they at the very end of it it talked about changing their houses from one grade level one two grade level two teacher two classrooms to one um and uh I was just wondering if that is any extra challenges for next year for them or professional development things like that. But I think we, as you know, we reduced some teaching positions at BMS um
030because we have a smaller class coming in and then we also felt like we needed to be a little more I don't know creative when it came to the schedule and trying to get more intervention put into at the middle level. Uh and so the class sizes will be will be bigger. um not you know not um you know past our class size policy or anything like that but so some changes that we felt we wanted to make there and so um I'm going to sh I'll share that with you guys but um Connor has communicated with parents um regarding you know those changes and so um anything else you want to add? No, I I would say one of the um shifts has allowed there to be math intervention and ELA intervention and now
031A. And so rather than focusing on having our staffing support um like a a smaller classroom setting, it they're slightly bigger classes, but it allows us to have more positions to do other things even with the reductions that we made just for being more creative. And um I think it is a it is a big change. Um, and I think people are um, our math interventionists have had three trainings. Our ELA interventionist had a training. A is almost fully planned except for the curriculum. So, they've had a lot of time this spring to put things in place. And so, the hope is with all of that planning, it'll kind of hit the ground running. But, it's definitely um, you know, not no small thing. Yeah. Thank you for giving that all that kind of attention,
032too. I was thinking would would be a a big adjustment to h not having that cohort with you right there. Um uh question on the BAFT tech the challenge was that they're having a problem with the sending schools with different end dates and I thought our schedules didn't our schedules had to be at least 10% or was it something they're allowed to have five dissimilar days um and they tend to be at the beginning and the end of the year which makes it tricky. I think the one factor that sometimes throws that off is that because Lincoln Academy is does not have to be part of that equation, those students are often sometimes out more because of their different private school essentially schedule and and when you know the end of the year comes, I
033mean it's about snow days, how many do they use or other emergency days. So um yeah, it gets a little tricky at the end, but during the year it's very consistent. Okay, that's what I thought because I thought that came into that big planning thing. Um, uh, Dyke Newell had a comment in it that they said a third of the incoming, uh, students are being identified for special ed. It seems like a big number to me, but again, I don't have any kind of basis for how we have that history. And I was wondering historically, what does that mean? What do you think? I would say um right now it's a slightly higher number, but we also find um depending on on how well students are serviced through CDS, which we know can be very
034touchandgo. Sometimes we'll get students who seem like they are going to require a lot of support and require almost none eventually. Um and others we have no idea about and um do need support. And so I think it might be a slightly needier class, but again, we don't really know until they're there. And nothing um concerning though in terms of the number and different than other kindergarten classes. Maybe slightly higher, but again, nothing really. It kind of es and flows. Um so it's just possibly a larger number. Um, but because we have the programming shifted there, um, I think the staffing right now is set up for success. So, they're feeling good about that. Isn't some of it, too? I mean, they're they're getting better and better at diagnosing things or figuring things out as
035they're coming. You don't forget getting kids earlier. Yeah. You're going to know before they ever enter, right? So, a lot of factors, but that's great. Thank you. Last one. I'm sorry. I I was really grateful that some point about this number of scholarships and everything that's given and it made me think like I was thinking graduation. I was waiting for one of the students to thank the community or thank like all the alumni and I think one student did this both um in a way they thank you know the general community present but I was like this is such a huge thing this kind of support for the alumni and the scholarship fund like should we be like letting kids know more about this is what they have for alumni association sorry or should we
036like is there any like should the alumni association and all the other scholarships be thanked at graduation or is that not appropriate? Or do they not want to or like is there any kind of before kids get to that last minute of senior year, do we actively talk to them about the alumni association and how much they have helped and will help? Yeah. I mean, it's it's constantly uh reinforced to the students that they go to the alumni banquet, they see what they're coming into. um there I know with their guidance councils and with our administration they talk about it a lot at their awards ceremony that they have their academic awards that's when the scholarships are giving out um you know that's a process that they go through so it's it's certainly clear and
037evident I I don't know um you know I I think maybe yeah it's a it's a historical thing here and and um and and you know maybe when I if I were to reflect when I was that age I'm not I I'm think I'm happy if I get a scholar question if I may not understand always whether it's from a business or from the alumni association even though we we do try to communicate that but um I think it certainly hits home when they get to college and um so yeah and I was just wondering if at graduation like does the class say thank you or do is that a part that we make part of graduation at that ceremony saying thank you to the alumni or do they get thanked in other ways and
038it wouldn't be appropriate? I think they get thanked in numerous ways. It couldn't hurt for, you know, a student, but I I I think um I think we we we thank them in in numerous ways as a as a school system. Okay. Thank you. Any other questions, comments on board reports? All right. Um thank you. Uh so 11.1. So we have a second reading of board policies. This is an action item. I'm just going to read through it for the record and then we can take it as one vote. Is that okay? Um, staff conduct with students, uh, recruit and hire professional staff, recruiting and hiring of administrative staff, professional staff development opportunities, supervision and evaluation of professional staff, and resignation of school unit employees. As I understand it, these are all just again not
039for any specific reason other than it's in the cycle of review and update. Correct. Okay. So, are there any questions on any of these? If not, may I have a motion? I move we approve all of them together. Okay. And second by Megan. All right. All in favor? Okay, that passes. Thank you for that. and thanks for all the hard work in reviewing and updating those. Um, let me point to you, uh, personnel items. Uh, Patrick, and we have one resignation, Sarah Wilbur, who was a special education teacher here at Morse, and would like to thank her for six years of service. And next, we have a nomination, I hope I pronounced this right, Zoe Pascuzo, uh, as an academic interventionist at Fippsburg Elementary School. And I think you have her information with you. I
040don't know if you have any questions. No, no questions. Can I have a motion? I'll move to approve and second by Jennifer. All in favor? And she's approved. Thank you. And now 11.4. This is to approve the superintendent's contract for 2025 2026 school year. This is an action item. And I believe Kurt, you've got a motion. pursuant to the terms discussed and all right I'll second and a second. Any further questions? No. All in favor? Artily approve. Thank you for everything, Patrick. All right. So, that is done. And now I'm going to hand it back to you so you can explain what we're doing with the declaration of votes. Yeah. I mean, we just need a simple motion on this one to approve the I know it's a mouthful, but approve the computation of declaration
041of votes. Uh, a motion in a second and then I'll have you there's a one sheet that I need you to sign before you leave tonight. So, that's 11.5. Um, so if you want to consider that right now, I make a motion to approve the computation of declaration of votes of June 10th, 2025 budget referendum. And then 11.6. Yeah, the 11.6 is is a um your signature verifying the town assessments. So I have those with me today. That would be you'd be signing on for all the towns. And so I will pass those out for your signature at the end of this meeting. Yeah. Great. That's what's amended, right? Patrick, it's the it's the actual assessment. It's what the actual will be. Um All right. And then uh we got two more. We're almost there,
042folks. Authorize the superintendent to hire staff over the summer on the board's behalf. We do this every year. Uh may I have a motion? Yes. I move to uh authorize the superintendent to hire staff over the summer on the board's behalf. Second by Anita. All in favor? And that is done. And then I'm going to hand it back to you, Patrick, on the computer lease approval 11.8. Yeah, this is um Dean's here if you have any questions and he can speak to it as well, but it's really for K to8, correct, Dean? K to8 student laptops. It's a 4-year lease and we have it budgeted and um came in a little bit under budget uh for the four-year lease. So, um we just need you to consider that tonight. See if you have any questions
043for Dean and then um it's an action item so that we can move forward and sign the lease. Great. and it was um a little under budget. And is there any any highlight anything we need to know other than just approving it? Anything we should be aware of? Great. And they they already have the same type. It's the same type of laptop. Yeah. Chromebooks. Chromebooks. Okay. Great. Um, may I have a motion or do you What? Did you want to make a comment? What happens to the old equipment? We repurpose as much of it as we basically situation where we're not really dependent on it. Uh, and everything else we steps to resell so that we can put those funds back into new technologies. Thank you. Great. Uh, may I have a motion? Sure. Do
044we need something else first? No. What did you No, no. We had a um I think I don't know it matters that much, but in your backup you had the actual motion. Oh, there was a motion in there.
