001Did Dan call up? >> Yeah, we uh we have >> Oh, hang on. I'm still on mute from last night. >> Okay, there we go. >> We have Dan, Julane, Melissa, and I. >> Perfect. >> And so, >> hey guys. >> Hello. >> I think this starts recording right away. So, I think we are recording. >> Okay. >> And I think just for officialness, if you want to just call us to order and then we can start brainstorming. >> Perfect. So, I'll call the meeting to order at 100 pm on Tuesday the 16th of September. Just looking for a notebook. Give me one second. >> So, there are some folks that are joining, so I'll just work to admit them. >> All right. And so, um, Tam, if it's all right with you, I can
002get us started if that's all right. >> Oh, please go ahead. >> Yeah. And so I believe it was uh two months ago uh thereabouts that Tammy and I through our regular we have a regular standing meeting um in part of the planning committee work that Tammy mentioned like doing a better job of sharing the work of the board with our stakeholders. Um uh so some updating and progress on on projects. We really didn't flush it out, right? but just doing a better job of communicating the work of the board with our community. And so, um, we talked about two two pathways. One was to bring that conversation right to planning and kind of having a big conversation or to tap into Melissa's expert, have a smaller meeting first and kind of a brainstorming meeting
003and then bring some of those fleshed fleshed out ideas to planning. And so the we we followed the second path as that's what brings us here today. And so the idea again is to bring to brainstorm some ideas how to better share uh with our community, our staff, our students, our parents the work of the board. And so uh to to help the process, I spent some time last week just brainstorming independently. And I shared that late last week with Melissa. What do you think of these ideas that we have and I'll put it up on the screen in a moment. And uh Melissa, yeah, these are good. So I shared it with Tammy and then Tammy suggested that we share with the full board. So that's part of the packet. These these my wife
004tells me I have a lot of bad ideas, right? And so these may be bad ones, but I wanted to just be helpful in a way to to start the conversation. And just for everyone's planning purposes, I will put that up on the screen. Those ideas. >> So, which of these are your why is your wife's good? >> Yeah, I didn't I didn't share this one. She gives me enough feedback on other other bad ideas to have. >> So, I think folks can see the the the document. This is not the right document. This is Chris Malloy and I's to-do list. We don't want to see that one either. Maybe if you close some tabs. >> Yeah, could be. Could be. Thank you for highlighting. >> What I'm seeing, I actually see the document. >>
005All right. Great. Thank you. >> And so again, these may be good ideas, maybe bad, but I'll talk us through it as a starting point and then we can talk more about these or any other ideas. How's that sound? >> Perfect. >> All right. So the first one um is uh I know uh that the way people digest information has changed right and so it doesn't take long to sit sit at a restaurant or go outside and watch people on their phones right and so the first one is kind of founded that idea what where we create a two to three maybe even less right two minute might be the max uh video uh recapping I think this this idea I had was really the the the full board meeting, right? But a recap of
006that meeting created by the board president or any member of the board. It's a quick really unedited authentic video. You know, we did those referendum videos last year in the hallway. It'd be similar like unscripted to some level, but here are the main topics updates. Here's the things we're excuse me working on. That gets pushed up. That's a that idea. Excuse me. The next one is more formal I think right this would be excuse me a coordinated series of podcasts whether I think this one says monthly could be monthly could be quarterly could be semesterly whatever we decide but that is more of a formal conversation between board members uh Dr. Burke, whoever it is, and talking through hot topics or topics of uh initiatives or progress being made. So, that's kind of a more
007formal setting. Next is we know that uh Melissa's work has brought us this idea of the district download. That's that newsletter. I think her target is always three times a year and we could most certainly have a guest column by a board member or board members. I think what u Melissa has worked towards is a 500word max. So that's just a limit that you know there's some some parameters there. The other one is more again back to informal. You know, we could identify places around our community where we advertise that Gelain and Dan will be at wherever, right, on the morning of September 22nd from 7:30 to 8:00 a.m. or whatever it is having coffee and stop by and chat with our board members, right? And uh hold that, Dan, one second. Yeah, I'll I'll
008go through go through the last one and I'll stop talking. I promise. And then we certainly know there are many well-attended that was one of the markers that Melissa and I talked through well-attended events throughout the course of a school year. And some of them we captured here. We know that our open houses are well attended, right? We know that conferences are another uh well attended event. Eighth grade parent night at the high school uh is very well attended. I think that's in January, right? And then we know trivia night draws in many people. So we try to look at those hightra areas where you know similar to last year's eighth grade parent night. Melissa had a referendum table and it was just stop by and learn about the referendum get a pamphlet. People stopped
009said hi learn a little bit and kept going. And it's to be that model. That's the model the visionary. And so let me stop talking there and any reflections or bad ideas or other ideas? for that um board coffee chats. Do we have to announce that? >> I think we'd be it'd be in our best interest to post that, get it posted. You know, we we could create a monthly schedule that, you know, uh October 15th is that latte donate from 7:30 to 8:30. We'll have two board members stop and chat. >> Yeah. >> But legally, do we have to? I mean, >> probably not. Okay. I'm guessing because we wouldn't have a quorum. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Um, but I think it's just in interest to have that posted in my opinion. >> And
010and the uh these school events you're talking about like PTO parent teacher organization >> meetings and that sort of thing. >> I wasn't thinking the meetings uh when I wrote and we this just my idea, right? But when I wrote conferences, you know, we have parent teacher conferences twice a year. >> Yeah. And so that would be we know when pick a school, right? Uh RMS has conferences. >> Yeah. >> We'd say the board will have a table there in a common area. People could stop by and say hi. Uh we could help with some literature, you know, like a one sheeter of of initiatives or whatever. Yeah. >> And then people just stop and say hi and and and get some other insights and walk away with that one sheeter. Right. So that wouldn't
011we can post that one too because we might have a quorum show up at that. Right. >> Yeah. I think logistically we could talk through any of these, but by and large I think we just posted just to just to make sure we're covered. Yeah. >> And I can make any of the handouts. I just need the content for what you'd like to see on there. >> Sounds good. >> I do want to step over Timmy. So if Timmy wants to talk >> Oh, no. Please. This is a team effort. So, um I just have a question about the podcasts. Is that just us speaking or in this um are we allowing two-way conversation for the podcast like we would for the board coffee chats? And I'm good either way. Like if we were to
012accept calls to the podcast, I'm not sure kind of equipment. >> Yeah, that is definitely not a detail I thought about when I wrote this. I thought it would be >> one or more board members. Doesn't have to be Jared, right? But one or board more one or board one or more board members and like Jared as an example. >> Okay? >> And you would pick a topic, right? And you just talk about that topic for 30 minutes, whatever it is, and allow people to to uh listen to that. I think we could might want if if that's the area we want to focus >> in my my opinion might be good to start with that and then as we get good at it we could say all right and we'll take the next five
013callers I think that would just to start would be another layer of complexity that might be >> oh yes it's much more technologically complex >> right and we you know we we could do a podcast here right and just record our conversation on topic pretty easily you start adding calls, it's like, uh oh. >> Well, I would suggest, look, I'm just going to tell you, I think all of these are great ideas >> and I think the more that we do these kinds of things and then we're seeing in the community and the community hears from us in outside of a formal board meeting, >> I agree. >> I think it's it's a wonderful it's a win-win. >> Yeah. >> Um I would suggest if you do the podcasts, you know, the way they're doing
014podcasts now, they're actually videoed. And I mean, I'm getting ready to do one this afternoon. 20 bucks I pay a month to do I can do video and audio or just audio and and it really enables people to have that now they're not interacting directly but they see as well as hear >> and so I would I would say consider that >> absolutely >> I don't want to speak for the tech team but I'm pretty sure they can help us with that right >> piece of cake >> yeah we can we can do that >> I think everybody does that uses some kind of a plugin it's just it's Sure. >> Yep. >> I also would say, you know, people make fun of me for my sayings, but we can do anything, but we can't
015do everything, right? And so, like these are one, two, three, four, five, five ideas. I I would suggest we pick one, two, the maximum. Get those, you know, to become how we operate. This is how we operate. Get them up and running. They're successful. And then after that, say, well, do we want to add a third? Right? Because if we try all five of them, we're we're likely to not be as s as successful if we try one or two. >> Do you have a do you or Tammy have a sense for of the five which would be highest priority? I'm looking at you Dan because you've been in these schools so much over the last >> 30 plus years. Uh I'm most familiar with the conferences and there's lines of people >> and um
016if you have a a junior or a senior, they're not as well attended. You know, they've been there, done that. >> So, they would be available to stop by a table with you and me sitting there. >> And um >> so I lean towards that one because it's easy. you know, we accomplish it >> next week if was it next week that Webster has theirs >> or >> That seems early. >> Okay. Maybe it was an October thing. >> They might have their parent um PTO meeting next week. >> But that's parent teacher conference later because you want to give some academic progress. >> Okay. All right. Now, see, I think that if you if that becomes one that we get dedicated to, I definitely think we could handle one more >> because this is
017such a low >> um >> yeah, >> labor intensive type thing. It's I mean, we'd need some literature and >> Yep. I I'd um provide you with literature to hand out. We'd make 11 by 17 table posters and then we have um we have for 8ft tables or six foot tables for the district brand a branded tablecloth. So it's real obvious that you're just I mean we have all the pieces are very quickly and then we have two or three people show up or we put them in on a rotating basis because I suspect these are evening conferences that last >> from probably 10. Yeah. Five to seven typically. >> So we get everybody in in that amount of time. >> Good. I've been at school where I did it two days. Okay. So, yeah.
018>> And that board coffee chat isn't uh >> I mean, it's just showing up, right? >> Well, it's just finding the place. I think the library is a place. I think the places you mentioned are, you know, we have a number of places like that where we could go from one end of the city to the other. I think what people are most frustrated with and that includes Stan last night, you know, that they couldn't speak back and this gives them an opportunity for us to listen and then to talk. >> Yeah. >> I think if we were to follow that, what do we call it? Coffee chats or whatever, we could uh systematize it and say like every fourth Thursday, you know, I'm just making this up, right? But the thing the time and
019the day of the month doesn't change, the location changes, right? So people become accustomed to we know that every fourth Thursday there's a coffee chat. I just got to find out where it is. >> And sometimes we may be there all by our >> right. That's yes though with um that the time should change because you want to catch people different hours. So maybe there's there's two a month and one is during the daytime and one is you know during the evening. >> That's a good call. Yep. >> But that is part of what we get caught in the camp for work purposes. >> Yeah. >> I know that a previous board member had a set time that they would be at a set place. >> I don't know how successful that was, but you
020know, it's nice having that option. So, >> I know a number of superintendents that do this with I was I think it's varied the engagement, but I think people appreciate knowing that Susie's going to be there on Thursday morning, right? If they if they want to stop, they can. >> I think people appreciate that. >> And and another former teacher who was on the board would have a standing meeting at the faculty lounge. >> Oh, yeah. So, and again, I don't know the results of that, but >> well, accessibility is important where the people feel like we're not just >> behind a a desk or a table where where we just listen to them and we don't interact with them. >> Yes. >> So, I think it is especially right now I think it's very
021important to see us as approachable and >> yeah wanting to hear from them. I think we found uh to our work a referendum, right? We we did, you know, we added a a formal communication plan, but we also had an informal where, you know, Sarah Kelly and I sat at Zwigs for lunch for an hour and a half, right? >> And no one approached us. We we kind of forced the issue, but you have to be okay with no one wanting to talk to you. So, it's a little awkward, but >> uh but if we systematize it, I think it'll grow. So, >> so I think this is the time we try. >> Yeah. >> And the one thing that comes out of this from my opinion is no one can fault us on, >>
022right? >> If they don't take advantage of it, that's not on us. >> And so we but we need to be purposeful >> in in helping them engage with us. >> There's not a one here I think is not worth considering. Um, I think the um the most intensive one from my standpoint is the third bullet point because that requires you got to sit down and write something >> and most people that's not their bag, >> right? >> So, um, but we would need to own that. It needs to be a board written piece, >> right? And I had actually been approached about that and somebody said who who disagrees with me personally and with the our board right now and I met with this individual and and it's a she said why don't you
023and I just do you know kind of like uh write daily times articles on a regular basis you know my side her side and I just gave her a something to think about. Um but there is a place for that. So to me, if you if you take the first two and the last two bullet points, I think any of those are doable. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Um a podcast is >> in my opinion um can be scripted or it can be very informal with free flowing thought just with people sitting around a table like this and and doing that. >> The two to three minute video recaps, I'm going to tell you Jason, they're insanely popular. And if you get somebody hot off a board meeting where the ideas are fresh in their
024mind and you stop them and you just do a kind of you are, you know, we're here and so are you and we're letting you know, okay, tonight we we passed 10 policies and you know, we discussed blah blah blah and we congratulated people or whatever, >> right? >> Um those those can get a lot of of mileage and they're very easy to do >> and I'm happy to facilitate that >> because you can just shoot them just shoot them with cell phone. stand and a nice background. >> Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think we we did those videos for the referendum where we just said say your name, your your role in the district, and please vote. >> And those became the most liked or viewed or whatever last year, >> probably
025the most uh recognizable and the most remembered aspects of our marketing. >> And it was literally I stand there and it was a cell phone and go and you're with it. >> Very, very easy to do. >> We didn't share the blooper real. [Laughter] So, Tammy, well, we're not engaging you. I apologize. Do you have any >> No, I'm happy to see the conversation. I agree with everything that's been said thus far. Um, I like the bottom two uh because it is back and forth interaction we would have with the community and not just us speaking to them, but it's engaging in dialogue. >> Yep. >> And I agree with Gelain about the the short briefings, the authentic short brief briefings after the meeting. What if we thought Tammy in terms of one that allowed
026for interaction and one that didn't that was more of a reporting type if we >> um for the briefings I agree with that right but for the coffee chats and if we go to the events that would be more dialogue based don't you think? >> Yeah. Well, that's what I was saying. We take one that is interactive dialogue and then we take one where it's not, you know, because if we if if Jason is right and we should start with two, then we choose one from where the people can talk to us and we can respond to them and then we choose another one where like bullet point let's just example take bullet point one and bullet point five. >> Okay. >> Does you see what I'm saying? So you have one of each. >>
027Yes, I do see what you're saying. and I see the thieves. So, um, does that make sense when I'm trying to say that you have the best of both worlds represented in the first try? >> Yes, I am absolutely comfortable with that. Now, do you think it would be better? Uh, I guess I if the board votes for a referendum, are we going to want to utilize the coffee chats to sell that or school events to sell that for the board? Right. because >> well both both >> every chance we get. Yeah. >> And I think the if the board decides to go to referendum then um the the development of a communication plan uh specific to referendum uh would be developed by Melissa and I and others that would infuse or incorporate what what
028the board is already planning. Right. But I think this is separate of referendum in and of itself, >> right? I agree it is separate, but they would be posted as separate as well, right? Where if it's a referendum coffee club chat we're doing. >> We're going to want to stay focused on referendum questions, right? We're not going to want to veer off to other questions. So, I guess I'd rather for this particular use, I'd like to use the one that we'd probably be less likely to utilize to get the word out on the referendum. Does that make sense? Because I don't want the confusion to have people coming up asking whatever question they might have isn't us saying, you know, um you could reach out to email or we can schedule something at a later
029date, but we're here specifically to answer questions or concerns about the referendum. Do you do you get what I'm saying? >> I feel like though for, you know, for the the two and a half months leading up to it, even if we, you know, have a a different topic intended, that's going to be what people are going to want to talk about regardless. >> You know, I was just meeting with a group prior to this about data, and one of the things I talked to them about was they should be excited, right? And so like I think that's kind of the marker for the board to think about is which one or two of these uh kind of are exciting for you to try, right? And and then try it. Um I think Julian is
030spot on. It's about uh engaging and being present and being approachable and um and and if it does not if you get zero people at the coffee clutch, then we'll try something different, right? And that's okay. And and the beauty of the conferences is they're a room full of teachers as well. >> So that's a you know we don't want to miss an opportunity to get ideas from them about the referendum because they're right in the middle of it. >> So can I just ask a clarifying question? So when when we talk parent conferences for our school district at the high school that doesn't happen room by room that happens in a central location >> cafeteria. Oh, and everybody's got a place where Right. And then you can go to three of the five. >>
031You can see where the lines are short and you can get over there. >> Okay. So that that's a that's a beautiful picture. >> Yeah. >> To have everybody almost like a captive audience. Yeah. It's really nice. >> Yeah. You know, you will not be sitting alone. >> I think we should >> Yeah, let's do it. >> So I think that sounds like a winning opportunity. >> Yeah, I'm good with going with one and five. I'm totally on board with that. >> I just threw the I just threw that out as an example. I'm not >> Well, we could start by um providing a calendar of all the upcoming events at all the different buildings where it makes sense to to have a table there for board discussion and then as a board you guys
032can fill in who wants to take which which dates and which locations >> because the elementary schools all hold their conferences separately. >> Yes. >> So that's five buildings that we need to cover. five different and then so we have seven those conf conferences to cover and the other things. We can be pretty busy with >> Yes. That that's something we learned at referendum as well, right? Like we had these initial grand ideas to go to every event, right? And you just can't you you don't have enough people or time to go to the track and field plus baseball plus this plus it's just so I think starting with a smaller number if it's conferences and eighth grade paranite as an example, right? and do those really well. And then if it's the two to
033three minute video, do those really well and then just continue to have the conversation about how how's it going? How do you know and what could we add on to it if we have the appetite and time? >> And if you really love doing this, then there's always the home sporting events at the high school and the school where there can be, you know, a table set up to catch Watertown people coming in and out. >> Absolutely. And I think with nine of us on the board, like even covering those conferences, we don't need everybody at every conference. No, you do not. >> We just need a a representation. In fact, I would prefer we didn't. So, we didn't get into the quorum thing and nobody had any question that >> that we might be
034doing official business because we had a quorum. >> Yeah. I think ideally have two. >> Yeah. At least two at each one. And nobody's gonna >> Yeah. >> be that busy. I think it's gonna be a blast. >> With Craig being the president, he can be the third at any table and that wouldn't cause a committee quorum. >> Nope. >> Because not seated on a committee. >> Yeah. >> Well, and technically speaking, committees don't have legal authority. So, >> Right. But they do worry about legally like if you're on a committee the two if it's a four-person committee and let's say you and I are together Julain discussing committee matters that's considered a quorum for that committee. >> Okay. >> That's why I'm saying it might be best for Craig to be that third piece
035because he's not officially part of any committee. So it wouldn't be a committee quorum. Does that make sense? >> Yeah, I think so. Well, I think those are just some of the logistics that we >> right logistics that we can work through as a team >> and we we have enough people we can switch people around to cover >> in agreement. >> And so, um, Tammy, I just want to think about next steps. uh our planning committee does not meet until November >> and we made a commitment to the planning committee to that we would bring whatever conversations we had here to the planning committee >> and so I guess I'm thinking about that November meeting uh should we bring all five bullets or should we narrow the down to two bullets here and then
036bring those to the planning committee what what Is the team thinking? >> Well, if we wait no till November, that's not definitely not going to prepare us for parents night. >> Yes. >> Um I'm not sure what the full board meeting is looking like. Is it possible to get this brief discussion added to the full board meeting with the um just this list of five in the handouts, but saying the meeting we narrowed it down to two. Get a feeling from the board and let them know that we're tenatively trying to get a parent a table at parents night. And moving forward, we'll be getting an email out to see everybody's availability for um conferences or whatnot to start setting that up. But I don't know what that agenda looks like for on Monday on
037if >> Yeah. Yeah. I I saw the really really draft drafty draft draft of that agenda. I'm not sure if things have been added and I'm um I think President Wartman really works with Dr. Burke on the finalization of that. So, I'm not sure the progress on that to be honest. >> Okay. >> But I I'll follow your direction. Um I guess I don't understand why we need board approval to go ahead and do some of these things. I mean, if we have who's on the planning committee besides me, >> me, you, Carl? Uh, Linda I believe is officially a member. >> Okay. >> I don't think just for clarification I don't think at planning committee we talked about approval. I I know that at planning committee we said that we were having a subcommittee
038and we'd bring the discussion to the planning committee. So I like we never talked about approval. We just committed to bringing it to the planning committee. That's all. >> Okay. >> So I just wanted to stay true to that. But when I'm saying, couldn't we do number five, you know, this fall before we get the approval? >> Yeah, I think that's a discussion. >> I think that's a discussion for the board, right? Like, >> um, you know, I would just say >> we made a commitment at planning committee, so we'd have to think through we're changing that, which is fine. I think we'd have to have some conversation with the board so they know what's going on, right? You know, no one likes surprises, right? So, keep them in the loop and then and allow
039them to think about if we're doing conferences as an example, there will be an ask for them to join. So, I'm just thinking about how do you right >> I don't think it's approval. I think it's bringing the team together for a discussion. >> But if we were to prepare a schedule and say they're having this conference this day, >> Sure. Um, can you sign up for two of these with a partner? I mean, would we need to meet face to face to do that? >> Just to get a full board consensus in the public sphere, Dan. >> Yes. would just for the legality of how public service works, it would be in the best of the interest for it to come in front of the board so everybody's aware of how the board and
040the district are moving forward, >> right? But there I believe there's been times where we've had special meetings that lasted just a half an hour where we got that business done. Oh, you're saying make it a special board meeting for this specific purpose and >> yes. >> Yeah, that that I think we can do anything. I'm just suggesting bringing bringing the team together for some discussion so no one's caught off guard, no one's surprised. But yeah, that's my only suggestion. and and Tammy um perhaps if your time were a lot would allow to connect with President Wartman about if this could be on the agenda would be appropriate if your time would allow. >> Yeah, I I can definitely bring that up to him. I'm not sure if he's going to be at policy tonight,
041but if he isn't, I can just reach out to him to see if the if it's doable >> current standing agenda. Yeah, I think this would fit neatly in strategic discussions or whatever that agenda item is. And again, I think the idea would be to ensure that the all members of the board are understanding of what we're talking about, get their uh their commitment to helping out and then we can follow up with the logistics offline. >> Okay, perfect. >> We need we need buy in. But I I do agree with you, Tammy. Um >> I would hate to waste the things that are already calendared. that would make. So, the followup to that is I'm on the WUSD website and I've tried a couple different things. Where would I find a calendar that would
042tell me when Douglas is having an open house or RMS or >> So, those should be on the individual school pages. It's frustrating with our website provider. It's it's hard to get a a a process in place to be able to like have all the different buildings feed into our main calendar, >> right? So, um, if you go under schools, >> yep, I've been there. >> And then if, um, if they are populating their calendars, we would we would be able to see that information there. >> Okay. I went to I just the first one that came up for the elementary schools, I think they're probably, you know, so if I'm looking at their tabs, I seen Oh, I see what you're saying. It'd be running calendar under the events on the far right side.
043>> Okay. >> What's What school are you looking at right now? >> I'm just in Douglas right now. So it looks to me they're running from September 17th through November 10th and I don't see any parent conference in there. So okay I see PTO meetings you were talking about. >> But we Yeah. Okay. Right. At uh I was confusing that with the parent teacher conference. >> We could call them and see what their dates are too. >> Well that's something we can help with. Yeah. >> So I I just want to get make sure we're we have clarity around next steps. And so I guess Tammy um are you comfortable connecting with President Wartman about uh where the best spot for this conversation to be continue? >> Yep. >> All right. And then would we
044for planning would would at that time we bring the full uh the five ideas one two three four or the two that we've kind of centered on? I guess I really can't answer that until I speak to Craig because if Craig can fit it on the agenda, I assume we're looking for consensus on the two that the board is comfortable with moving forward with and then executing on that if it we could get it on the whole board agenda. But if Craig doesn't think it will fit in there, um I don't know if we should be bringing all five to to say, "Hey, we had this discussion. it was decided that the best choices for us would be one in five, but we're bringing this back to the committee just to confirm everybody's on board
045with that before moving forward. You know, I I feel like I can't answer that till I speak to Craig on if we can fit this in or not. >> Sounds good. And then um just in preparation for number five, I want to be ready if that's the route. Melissa, could you help us put together a chart of >> Absolutely. >> like the parent teacher conferences, >> maybe the eighth grade parent night, and maybe trivia as a starting point. >> Yes. >> Okay.
