001construction right now i mean you see all the money that they're trying to put into the roads and all that and just having that experience where they train you for the job and then they put you to work it's just a different career path track for someone who doesn't want to go to college or wants to do something more construction labor-based i think it probably pays more than twenty dollars now uh vice president yeah that was my first what two years ago talking about it that's what they're telling me about that yeah and then you had your attention onto okay i just want to um remind families that we don't have school tomorrow it is a voting day we have professional development so we do want to encourage families to go out and vote we
002also have i do want to give a shout out to um mr patoo in the band uh for who we're doing with the trump retreat and the performances that he's been doing i mean for a small small band they are trying their hearts out so i just want to give him praise for that i also got a nice email um for from a parent for the ecc staff you know they did ask me not to include names but how they made their child feel so supportive uh during a time where they lost a pet and just wanted us to know that they were very much appreciative of the staff at the early childhood center the trump retreat was phenomenal and uh ecc i think they had the better the better day of the two with
003with the sun being now but i know miss gorgonzola and miss moa compared to indoors and that was nice um i want to remind parents that report cards will be going out with their children into secondary level um and so be on the lookout for that you could always uh just print it out through my star through your parent portal if you wanted to and um i do want to just close the gap with oakland county health department um contact tracing there's there's a time lapse between the time that we notify oakland county health department that there is a close contact because when we read the law it was against the law for us to quarantine the students and that order has to come from oakland county health department and so what we were doing
004previously is we were quarantining the kids we can't do that so to close the gap we want to just remind parents that if you get a text message from oakland county health department we're asking you to contact your administrator to close the loop so we know that you've been contacted that way we're not letting two or three days go by before we catch point of it and it could lead to a further uh exposure so we'll send out an email blast on that and i'm just kind of addressing that briefly here but we'll send our email um class and uh we have we do want parents to be aware that we're going to have a suicide prevention professional development for the staff to address social emotional needs of our students we did do a survey
005earlier well towards the end of last school year and um we're trying to address that we want to educate the staff so it's grace six through twelve right now uh and there's a new law that every secondary ib now has a suicide hotline so if you ask a student that is in grade 6 through 12 to show them the back of their id you'll see a phone number there where they can contact suicide prevention so that is on the rise and we just want parents to be aware and have discussions with their children if they rather have that discussion first we ask that you contact the administrator that way they're not part of the assemblies uh wilkinson is going to have one i believe on november 8th for the parents to inform them uh is
006that is that correct mr whitman november 8th we're going to have a parent workshop just to make the parents aware of it and i believe that concludes my superintendent's report president we will then move on to uh approval of the minutes from october 4th 2021 regular board of education meeting and october 20 2021 special board of education you need to make support please any discussion hearing none we'll call vote please koya thompson yes deborah yes cindy holder yes mark holcomb yes [Music] yes [Music] and replacement of the heat exchanger [Music] we have a quote of 12 087 we have a maker and support please trustee thompson contingent excuse me um is there anything that we needed and this was part of the discussion mr abdullah had since uh mr thiel isn't here to ask no
007we just we can't wait um we we asked if it could wait to see what the outcome of the bond is but um you need this to bring heat to certain parts of the building and hopefully the fact will cast tomorrow if it does this was a part of yes what was in it so that won't cause any uh any other questions or discussion hearing none world called voting please rebecca shannon yes mark holcomb [Music] cindy holder yes deborah [Music] approval of the technology purchases ecf this is um forty eight thousand nine hundred doctor hill or doctor of doula hunt do you wanna add anything um i'm not a doctor oh gosh so we were awarded we applied for that grant we were awarded we're going to replace all the teacher stations with brand new
008high-end laptops with backing stations then so when a teacher leaves at the end of the day they can take that with them and then we are also getting more chromebooks to replace some of the computer labs that have gold and computing so we will be up to date uh they're going to reopen that there's still more funds available to apply for it and basically they're they're awarding anyone that's applying so my next recommendation will be to put all new 75-minute smart boards at the high school to replace all the mes old projector ones with the smart boards uh but when that crank comes up i'll apply for it and if we get awarded that's where we intend to use that money and and i was remiss to say this is us or two no this
009is totally different this is this is e-ray uh yes what says successor too or the remaining word you know what it's split between irate and esser2 48 is coming out of yes or two and uh is coming out of hebrew [Music] so i need a maker and support police um support and support trustee invented discussion anybody else how many chromebooks have you purchased over the past year and a half two years approximately the last ones that we recommended to you we never you guys voted on and then we found out that was not ordered so those who have to be ordered and i don't know off the top of but we've done three different orders remember the first one that took like eight months to get um so that one only arrived in 2020. i
010could get you a hard number of how many times but every time we've ordered we presented to the board so i just have to go back and look at the minutes yeah i i just would like to know how many we've ordered i know that when we voted on in the past we've asked how many because it does seem like it keeps coming and i get if we vote it doesn't end up getting ordered then it would be a duplicate vote and that makes sense but i'm just wondering how many more do you need will this meet the needs going forward obviously until technology needs upgrading again but would this be enough that this would be the final batch well yeah the next the next thing on our plate is to replace the smart boards
011if you look at the high school they have a mixture of old and new and then elementary has the old projector ones so we want to go with 75 inch and those last 10 years so after we do that the only other thing would probably be to do a server refresh in two years because we just got those servers uh a year and a half ago so they last about five to seven years but i'll get you a total number um i'll ask dr hill to get the total number but an example uh miss proposal asked me if she could discard the end units not discarded but replace them because those end units are very slow so that computer lab is sturdy uh wilkinson's computer lab is the old computer sticks that we kind of
012put together so yes we're just finding an opportunity to take advantage to do a product refresh across the whole district we should be good for five to seven years on chromebooks okay yeah i would really appreciate just a number of how many we've purchased over the past two years and if there's going to be a need for anymore that i'm not supposed to pop up but that could be 14 maybe another thing that we're exploring is new marquees technology marquees at the high school and here because they're using the whole letterhead so we'll try to use every dollar that we could get from them any other questions yes ma'am i just had one question i would kind of see that it kind of piggybacked off what um miss chambliss said um i didn't know if
013this will give us a one-to-one ratio on chromebooks with our students this last batch i was wondering if this last batch will give our students a one-to-one ratio with chromebooks we'll have more than one-to-one ratio because we're now we're gonna touch the computer labs so wilkinson's 101 high school is kind of a mix shift uh elementary is one-on-one if you combine icaps and chromebooks but if we can do both chromebooks and ipads then we'll do that because ipads are what nearing five years now age anyone else i have just one question and i realized that technology that comes absolutely almost as soon as you purchase them but do we um keep tabs on publisher distributed who they're distributed into do we collect them back if the student leaves the district if they owe money at
014the end of the year how are we on looking at those things so oakland schools controls every our it department controls every chromebook if you shut it down they can reimagine uh and then we do charge if there's a i just don't know off the top of my head how much like for a crack screen but we do charge families if there's a credit screen a certain amount and then principals will work with families that don't have the resources to you know pay a hundred dollars for the stream or twenty five dollars but you can use this two hundred dollars so we're monitoring that that was my my question do you know how many laptops or ipads are still kind of m.i.a post coven and i could be wrong with my understanding there's still quite
015a few chromebooks missing there's yeah i don't have numbers but there's some ipads that are missing some people didn't return on them uh and it was expected because you can't hold you can't with local transcripts you could send them notices you can't hold their report cards well you could withhold a report card but not their records requests or someone so you're kind of at their mercy but i can get you a number of those once i talk to the principals yes thank you anything else hearing nothing and hold elbow please mark welcome yes cindy holder yes deborah odd yes gloria thompson yes crystal beaver yes rebecca yes motion passes thank you next stop um a new job title recommended that the board of education approve the assistant superintendent of curriculum instruction human resources and operations
016position and an assistant superintendent administrative assistant we need a maker and support and then we'll have discussion please i make a question trustee at [Music] uh this is based on a direction that i got from the board um last board meeting where you asked me to explore um a job title combining so this is what we're presenting uh to you the reason we combined human resources is i've only had four applicants and out of the four applicants for hr one had hr experience but it came from the corporate world and hr is totally different from public education so we're going to explore this option to see if we have more candidates apply and i could give you an update on on that in a week or so depending on what we do tonight okay any
017other discussion or questions president trustee thompson angel do you know what this job is between 110 and 120 for the assistant sue mr field was making about 97 000 um so to pile on curriculum in there and if we figured an administrative assistant makes about 45 000 combined for the two people if you bought 160 now that would replace two full positions which will be about a forty thousand dollar savings if you could find the right candidate because hr is about a hundred thousand and then you have curriculum and instructions about a hundred thousand so that's two hundred thousand so this way if we do find the right candidate we'd save about forty thousand dollars um a year and we could put a provision in there that we could explore it after when all the
018esser funds go away so it doesn't hit your general fund president holder other questions trustee um mr abdullah so this will be paid with esser and in two years we're going to potentially tell somebody that they're not going to lay them off so we're going to hire somebody in but let them know that in two years they might have a job in 2025 that gives us um three and a half years and typically we present one year contracts to you so a three-year you know potentially yeah we would do that this this position cannot come out of your general fund because we're too small to afford two high-end positions like that so we're lucky with esser funds and we could set aside some because it's addressing curriculum in the learning gaps so okay and like
019it says the assistant superintendent will make district level decisions and work in collaboration with all staff to align rigorous curriculum that is culturally responsive isn't that what the dei coordinator is going to do we're not aligned the ddi is dealing with diversity equity and inclusion and aligning that now the curriculum director will align all curriculum from kindergarten to 12th grade because right now if you look at elementary they're doing something middle school is doing something but there's not one person that's aligning at all to make sure that the handoff from eighth grade to ninth grade there's no standards that are being missed and so dei is dealing with the diversity equity inclusion and classism that's that's that creates a huge um gap between between them this is strictly curriculum and i wanted to develop like
020a a good plan for the district a curriculum plan where we could address growth so we could have some steady data growth and the dti is not really focused on that part of it okay so i just have two concerns number one many of many of these things are superintendent jobs and it seems like between ms kennedy and an assistant superintendent we're kind of nicely wording ways to pull tasks out that i would expect a superintendent to do and with our districting the size we are and school numbers dropping than they are i mean we're trying to go stable we're trying to grow but we haven't yet we're very top-heavy we have quite a few not well enough paid people but highly paid people at the very top for a district that's right at a
021thousand so when esther you know we might have that money right now because of that but it seems like we're building a pattern that we can't sustain and may not necessarily need them to do all these things and could focus on things that we do need i just went by what you asked as a board to do to keep bringing a posting of assistant superintendent so typically a superintendent doesn't do the curriculum alignment so i was trying to add some stuff that curriculum directors did so you'll see curriculum director uh duties in their hr duties in there and operational duties here i'm just referring to with your superintendent goals that say you'll be doing curriculum so that's why i'm saying superintendent tasks is because some of these are things that are on your goals and
022things that you listed that you do when you give us your recommended goals i would just like to say you know that um curriculum is important to everybody parents kids class um all our building administrators they're they're already working very very very hard correction one is a specialty we used to have a full-time just curriculum thereafter and i know that that was about done but i did not ever hear that they were busy doing something and um it also i'm hoping and intend to help and at the school levels and help the administrators um so i think that that's necessary somehow or another we have to have somebody that that is at least a portion of their job um i know in mr abdullah had pinch here i did ask um on kind of old
023school what oakland schools could and couldn't give us with mr field being gone hr is a full-time job um we need to stay on things so if you could just explain to me what you had said to me this afternoon about oakland schools so oakland schools could give you an assistant superintendent but it would be 130-140 000 so all they're going to do is host it and and hire them so if we're going to do that i told president holder i said if they're going to just do that as well have us do it for cheaper and it might be intensive for someone who is aspiring to step up in the educational ladder it might be something that they're willing to take on i don't know that that special right person is out of life
024i'm willing to see i think everybody needs support in our staff and um especially with these very specific um important parts of education so um i would like to at least see if there's somebody out there that can help us especially now that mr field has left assistant superintendent for 130 000 ish would that person be experienced would they be like well-versed so they kind of hit the floor running i don't know they would they would post it and see who the applicants are i mean that's what they would do when i explored that option before that's what they were going to do they said go post it if that's what you're looking for but what's the difference on them interviewing in us interviewing i can ask the same questions they're asking i know what
025we're looking for and this is not necessarily this wasn't my recommendation to present me this is what you as a board asked me to present and so this is what i'm presenting to you uh and it doesn't hurt to apply to see how many people if you have no one i'll report it back if you have 50 candidates i'll say we have 50 applicants looking good high caliber people and we could go from there no that makes sense i'm just wondering if oakland schools maybe has like people that have had experience maybe they've done interim superintendent but they're not the full superintendent like maybe yeah maybe they have resources that you know us putting an ad out might not tap and so for an extra possible 10 000 but to get someone who kind of
026comes in knowing what assistant superintendent does and all the tasks required and how to do them could be beneficial versus trying to train someone we have somebody who could be like i know what to do you know can i just say the the only problem with that is you're having um an assistant superintendent perry we don't have that luxury we have money money seats or job titles they're gonna have a one for you know so um i don't know that that helps us i understand the thought process but um i don't think right now we can afford to just hire a simple um assistant superintendent we need somebody that's gonna be able to fill no that makes sense it's just i'm not going to name names but there are some people in the district who
027are really great people but they're having a lot piled on them so i just need to see us hire somebody in go through the training and then when everything's kind of laid in their lap that they're expected to do it's way too much and we either lose them entirely you burn someone out you know what i mean like i know that what we need is kind of the uniform of assistant superintendent but we also we're kind of in a place where we're trying to do so many amazing things at once i just don't want to see somebody have to bear the problem so much that we lose them so maybe i don't think the tasks they do could be discussed more well right now what's on the floor is at least looking into seeing what
028the interest might be on this job so that's what we're going to go down right now if there is no interest or if there's not interest that can help us then we're going to be bringing this back sooner rather than later so um is there any other questions or discussions [Music] i ask for [Music] yes gloria thompson yes crystal beaver no rebecca no mark holcomb it's recommended the board of education and relations position the director of communications and relations will be responsible for all district level publications newsletters promotional and informative information necessary to support the school district expand and increase the district's brand recognition be responsible for social media communications and be the district webmaster we need a maker and support please open the floor for discussion he was just doing the basic posting and
029you know he was getting that 500 months it's old school so we want to you know refresh the website we actually want someone that could help us increase our brand uh and extend our brand out so you need you need someone with good skills i'm not saying he does not have but we actually need someone that went to college for that any other questions or concerns [Music] is i'm sorry i just want to say that again i think we're adding positions we're adding money to the you know the administration building and administration and we're losing students we're at a thousand students and we're adding positional positions that potentially in a very short time we can't afford and i feel like that's playing with someone um for a growing adult to come into a job yes
030we give one here contracts but i think most people believe that they do a good job and they are successful that that contract will be renewed regardless of one year they don't accept it to be with an expiration date um so i think again we're adding positions we don't have the student base to cover it i understand the point behind it and why we might need this but i believe there has to be another way versus 75 000 plus um we have so much other things we can do with money so so we have to fill his position as to the uh public relations and stuff [Music] just to revamp just so just to have a website redesigned if you just go out and outsource that alone that's 30 to 40 000 just that alone
031just if you want to do a website refresh now i'm sure you would agree that our website is old the pictures are old the tabs are old when comparing to other up-to-date and in tech savvy districts so just that alone that's half year salary not including that we could actually do publications that right now we are sourcing out to have design right and so if we have someone in house we could design those flyers that we were paying people to do that job will pay for itself because my recommendation um just to clarify mr phil was getting paid 500 a month to do this correct he was he was just basically he he created one tab because we're struggling to even create a bond test so we have to get assistance just to create that
032so he was basically just updating the board package between it takes a lot to understand coding and web design and he that's not his field but we needed someone sarah mohler before that she was a lot more tech savvy she was designing the website when she left we needed to stop the gap so jamie field took that on but that was just a patch it was not to actually do what we needed to do it was just his 500 a month with basically making sure that we're posting our stuff on the right page the right time the calendars like right now if you look at our staff directory it's not current and i've asked them to you know and we just didn't know how to do it we both fiddled with it but we needed
033someone more tech savvy to to do the district-wide uh staff directors so they could push that out to the different buildings so they could pull down but we can't do that right now so we have to manually go in and do points those are simple tasks that for someone who goes into that field they could do that in a heartbeat for us it might take us three or four days just to get a webinar to understand how to do it and then spend a half a day trying to do it answer a question trustee chandler so mr thiel who is incredible let me just preface this with that he's incredible why did it take him leaving before a concern about the fault not the quality because he does a great quality job i'm going to
034say quality but mr thiel you do an amazing job this is not about you why does it take him leaving before we're hearing this was not a good enough job being done our website was suffering we needed to do much more we could not keep up with the demands of what needed to happen why was this not proactively handled months ago where you said mr field we need to replace you on this position because we didn't have someone step in to lighten your load and who's a little more tech so he and i had discussions regarding this way before but it takes time for us to research to see what we can afford for for us to see if we can draw the extra money for me to have discussions with it's not as simple
035as just present you something and call it a day so just because this is actually this is the second month you've heard of this but we probably spent three months trying to explore it and when you get the email you get the same emails with complaints on some of the things that we're not in compliance so you get the same notices [Music] can i just say now we have no one doing it so now now it's definitely whatever whatever didn't make it come to the top that's at the top now um the other thing that i guess i just want to have it's been kind of a nitpicky spot for me for a long time is we don't toot our own worms we don't celebrate our employees enough we um that our um good news
036letters that used to come out a couple times a year um that showed people what their investment was who you know what the kids were doing what the parents were aligned with and you um trust each other probably know better than the rest of us trying to find a schedule sometimes as a challenge if i want to attend an event it's frustrating and more than one time to figure out where it is or what it's doing and it's nobody's fault it needs to be addressed but we need to celebrate our wins our you know have a great employees we need to show them that we support them that you know we have their backs we're working towards you know celebrating their hard work as well as ours so that's my two cents for what it's
037worth anybody else okay hearing nothing we'll call vote [Music] gloria thompson yes motion passes next is the first policy reading for our closed session um and tell me we have a lady here tonight to help us with mr urban do i just need to read this whole thing into um the record as our first official reading right i guess yeah i'm sorry um i'm not clear on why it's full session no it's about closed session oh thank you okay i didn't want to do it wrong so uh this is zero one six seven point two closed session the board made by means of april calcu meet in a closed session one close to the public for the following purposes a to consider the dismissal suspension or disciplining bomb or to hear complaints or charges brought

043summary of our major grants for the current year and i just wanted to highlight some things for you uh during the year we thought we were going to get so 2 and so 3 funding and be able to you know apply for it but we actually was only able to apply for the funding as of august 31st so the michigan department of education just made it available for districts august 31st we thought we would have it during the year but we didn't and um esther two for us the madison district was allocated 1.2 million if you look on the first page you have a column first column is your grant name the grand period period what madison is allocated to either apply for and then the grant end date and some notes so i'm just
044going to highlight essar 2 madison district was allocated by the michigan department of education to be able to apply for 1.2 million dollars and the michigan department of ed as i stated before they made the application available in beds as of august 31st so so3 for madison district is 2.7 million dollars and we will be applying for that funding and i just wanted you to if you flip to the next page you know you're gonna look at a total of seven point six thousand worth of grant funding for the current year and then if you look flip to the next page this is our essential spending plan you know you're going to see the plan description of what we um have asked about if we can spend less or two dollars on and the cost
045and uh we still have about 121 000 of the 1.2 million that was allocated to madison district to be allocated meaning we have to come up with how we're going to spend that additional 407 dollars now if you flip to the next page our sr3 spending plan is still being finalized so far we have the two positions that you heard discuss here tonight you know and this cost it includes benefits at 0.46 so we still have 4.2.4 million dollars that we still need to finalize our plans for and we will do that because we need to apply for this funding uh by december fire before december and we'll have it done and i just wanted to um if you go back to the esser spending plan you know like you all heard us talk about
046the 500 chromebooks the 100 laptops you'll see that it's you know a cost split between e-rate funding and sr2 so2 the porsche van 48 900 that we discussed before that's what we were trying to say i just wanted to highlight that and um you know let me know if you have any questions and i think your list is pretty thorough all right have a wonderful evening many reports grcc and i'm hoping to report tonight okay next diversity equity and inclusion committee report i also don't have anything to report there's actually it's pretty even cute we're still discussing the same things and we don't have a medium until the third week all right now to stop the word comments we thank you okay so thank you guys so much for coming out tonight or if you're
