001Board of Education on this 900th day of winter, February 10th, 2026. >> Uh you'll all rise for the uh pledge of allegiance. >> I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Okay. Uh, routine matters. Resolve that upon the recommendation of the superintendent of schools, the board does hereby approve the following routine matters. Board of education minutes for January 13, 2026. Treasurer's report for December 2025. The appropriation status reports for December 2025. and the cse recommendations for the dates listed on the agenda. Do I have a motion? >> Some moved. >> Second. >> All those in favor? >> Opposed? Motion carried. [clears throat] Okay, we have moving on to presentations. Um, we are
002expecting the uh presentation for the Bosey's administrative budget tonight, but they are not here yet. I know they have several districts to visit tonight. Um, so whenever they come in, I'm going to call an audible and bring them on so they can do their presentation and get out. So right now we will start with uh Mr. Betta with the strategic plan update. >> Yeah. And um this is sort of a in our continuing attempts to update the Canada community on the strategic plan. Um, we just wanted to show a little bit of uh a preview of what's to come and how we're going to be able to organize the work that's hap the really good work that's happening in the district. So, um really the the intention of tonight is to show you and draw
003your attention to where you can find some of the resources on our website. For example, um Brenda has been working on getting us set up with it. We have our own tab, the strategic plan 25 to 30 right on the front page of our website. Now, uh with the idea being that if people are wanting to find out things that are happening, things that are a product uh of the strategic plan, things in some way associated with it, if they want to understand it better, um see more examples of it as we build out our our process, uh they'll be able to find it in one easy place, one or really nice organized spot on the website. So, thank you to her for uh for pulling that together. Um, we also wanted one of the
004resources that's going to be on that site is just a very short video clip because we understand that people get information in different ways. Some people like to read about it. Some people want to see a little video. Um, we want to have different ways in which people can learn about it that fits, you know, their the amount of time they have or or the level of detail or depth they want to get into it. And so, um, we wanted to show you that. Uh that's something again I'll ask Brenda and Emily to help out. They uh Brenda and Emily have done a a lot of work in the last several weeks really working on the organization of this project. And as we've said repeatedly, this is something that is not something that we want
005to just say we did it and set aside. This is something that's going to frame everything we do. It's a reflection of really what we value and or is uh things that are important in our school. So, we've been talking in the first several weeks of the roll out about our goal area one, which is student achievement. We're going to be talking a lot about u the second goal area, which is increased opportunities for our students. Mr. Carter is going to be talking tonight about I think something that probably is both of those things in a lot of ways. Um but and there's going to be um you know, a continuous uh flow of information coming to that um to that site. We're interested in getting feedback. For example, if there are things that people
006are asking for or wanting or if there's a way we can present it that maybe is is more user friendly, then we're open to to uh ideas and and suggestions as well. So, I'm going to turn it over to Emily and Brenda and they can give a little intro to what you're about to see and talk about next steps. >> So, like Mr. Rosetta said we wanted to be able to showcase it to people that may enjoy a a short video. It's it's not more than what, a minute and 40 seconds, >> something like that. >> It's it is pretty short. Um and it's a nice overview. It is not voiced by either of us. >> Um but all of the pictures are from Canesa. So we're using real Canod scholars to represent some of
007the things that we are currently doing. Um, you may have noticed that on Wednesdays, um, different things get showcased. So, we're slowly working our way. Um, we're we're wrapping up goal one and starting on goal two. Um, but but a big part of this, and Mr. Betetta has already kind of touched on this, was we're not doing this for any reason other than to continue to be reflective on our own practices and to continue to improve. So, we don't like to send things, just to send things. Um, so some weeks it may be a visual, some weeks it may be, you know, a an interview from when we were on cool schools. Some weeks it may be a student interview. Um, but we try to make sure whatever we're showcasing is going to highlight an
008area that really shows our either our continuing improvement in that area or how we are encompassing that in our strategic plan. >> So, you want to hit the button? >> I'll hit the button. like Vanna [clears throat] White. >> Okay. >> Our strategic plan is our roadmap for the future. It reflects our shared commitment to students, staff, and community. At the heart of this plan are five goals that guide our work each day. Goal one, increase student academic proficiency. Goal two, expand learning opportunities for Canesa students. Goal three, expand and strengthen co-curricular opportunities and community partnerships. Goal four, maintain and improve Canesa facilities and operations. Goal five, expand student support services. Goal one focuses on increasing student academic proficiency. We will strengthen instruction, align curriculum, and use data to support student success at every grade
009level. Goal 2 expands learning opportunities for Canesa students. We are building pathways, credentials, and real world experiences that prepare students for life beyond graduation. Goal 3 focuses on expanding and strengthening co-curricular opportunities and community partnerships. By working together, we can increase access, engagement, and real world experiences for our students. Goal 4 focuses on maintaining and improving our facilities and operations. [music] By investing wisely and planning responsibly, we ensure safe, efficient, and future ready learning environments for our students. Goal 5 expands student support services to ensure every child feels included, supported, and ready to succeed through strong systems and meaningful interventions. We are committed to meeting the needs of all learners. Kennesa Forward is more than a plan. It is our shared commitment to our students, our staff, and our community. Together we are building a
010future where every learner can succeed. >> So this video along with anything that gets blasted out on a Wednesday is will be housed on the website under the strategic plan tab. Um they are sorted organized by the goal area. Um, so if you I know that people probably are spending a lot of time looking into our strategic plan, but if you ever want to go back and rewatch some of the things that we've sent or do some do some further reading, everything will be located there that we send out. So if anybody wants some more information, um, and as we continue to showcase the goals through the end of the school year. >> Thank you. Okay. Uh, next up we have the um fleet electrification plan is presented by Tracy Leon. >> Oh, thank you.
011>> Good luck to you. This is a follow-up conversation to our conversation that we had I believe last month um maybe the month before regarding the mandate on the electric buses. So again just coming back uh we talked about last time the requirement that was put forth from the state and then what some of the steps uh the district was going to take going forward. So um to date we have now we've met with Naerta um we have confirmed that Canesa is identified as a priority district. So what that means in the eyes of New York State are any plans that we continue to um explore and have completed on behalf of the district will be paid for 100% by New York State and those are direct pays. And that's different because sometimes when we
012um have payments by from New York uh we we need to pay and then they reimburse us. A little bit different here. And uh the reason that this electrification plan is important is it is one of the key processes that needs to be completed in order for us to move forward and complete a waiver. So we talked about the waiver process at the last meeting and that would allow us to extend our purchasing of electric buses for two more years. So, as it stands right now, July 1 of 2027, districts currently must purchase [snorts] the um electric buses, right? So, diesel or gas buses are no longer allowed unless you have a waiver in place. So, um at this point, we have met with NAERTA. As I said, we clearly have confirmation that um any
013work towards this will be paid at 100%. In January, we obtained the list from Naerta of approved vendors. So, NAERTA is the um the liaison that has gone out, done the bidding, and has identified the approved vendors. So, that none of that lift is on the district, nor is any of that cost on the district. So, you will see nothing that comes to you that says, um, we're asking the board of education to approve this vendor for us to move forward. These vendors are New York State vendors. Okay. Um, so we did receive that list. There were about six vendors on there. They are engineers that are on there. There were about six of them. Uh, we reached out to the local vendor. So, we reached out to um CNS was on that list. The
014other vendors on there were from Buffalo or Rochester. We felt it was really important to use somebody as local as possible. certainly to understand our geography and topography. Um so we Monday, yesterday um met with CNS, walked through what that experience looks like, what needs to happen, what the timeline is, the next steps moving forward is CNS will send back to the district an approved scope of work. We approve the scope of work moving forward. Again, we can do that at um at the district at the district office level because we're not approving a vendor. They're already a state approved vendor. And uh once they receive that back, CNS completes the entire application on behalf of the district. Okay, that process takes about two to four weeks for them to complete the application and get
015an application number. That's the key piece here. you need that application number um in order for the district to then move forward and submit a waiver. Okay. So, we are expecting that we will be able to submit the waiver to New York State in March that we'll have an an application [snorts] number. We'll submit the waiver which will allow us two additional years of purchasing gas buses as we have been uh purchasing. And then we expect that in or about the May time frame of 2026, we will have um approval of the application. Once the application is approved at New York State, they submit a purchase order directly. So again, nothing comes through the district. New York State submits a purchase [snorts] order directly to the vendor, which would be CNS, and then they would
016start the study. Takes about six months. So um there's a series of information that we will provide for them. Uh they will look at routes, they will gather our fleet data, they will come on site, they will look at our infrastructure, they will take the um national grid fleet assessment report that was completed a couple years ago. and they take all of this data and they will provide back to us what is called this um this fleet um electrific the electrification plan fleet electrification plan. So, we don't expect to see that until probably um November of 2627, but uh again, this was just to outline the [snorts] timeline, make sure that uh you know, we're communicating this and this will allow us to submit that waiver at this point. That is the only piece at
017the state level that has been approved. we can submit the waiver and we get the two-year extension simply for the purchasing, not for the entire fleet turnover. >> Okay. Does anybody have any questions? >> Great. >> We fully anticipate that the date for the full turnover of the fleet will have to be adjusted, but they're just not doing it yet, >> right? >> Because they want people to still get into the the proc the you know, assessment process. Yep. So, we'll keep you updated as we get our application number and move forward with that. >> Thank you. Uh, next up we have um Mr. Carter to talk to us about the seal of civic readiness. So, I've rolled a lot of updates to you guys about the seal of civic readiness is throughout the process.
018Um, to be very honest, credit goes to my social studies department for pulling all this together and getting us a very quick approval. So, in your hands, just kind of a quick synopsis of the program and really its impact for us here as a district. Um, you know, three main points, you know, um, this is a a literal seal that goes on a student's diploma. Um, this is a point-based system, six points, at least two from each of the categories. So, this recognition is very, very well-rounded. Okay. The way we have it structured, this should be a natural part of their progression through our high school. So as they go through and they interact with our curriculum and they reach their region scores and you know hit those proficiency numbers, we should be able to
019give this as a regular part of our graduating class. My anticipation, you know, after we get some of the bugs out, we should be awarding this to about 80% of our students generally speaking. Some of the benefits CC CCC R score on our state accountability index. Every kid we give this to, it's a credit to the district in our accountability index with the state. That's a really nice thing given that it should be something that's built in. Um, as we know, the the state's moving towards a single diploma system. What is going to set students aside are the seals that we can offer kids to put on there. I'm starting with this. As soon as we get this set, I'm moving on to the seal of biiteracy. These are programs that other districts have. I'm
020trying to get up to speed for us here. 4 plus one pathway. This gives another option for students who are struggling to get through an exam. If they're a student who's struggling with one particular area, but they've met the seal of civic readiness, we're still [snorts] going to be able to use this to help our graduation numbers. So, it's a lot of flexibility there. And I'd say lastly, and I kind of put this in there, is formalizes community service. We had strong elements of that long before I walked in the door here. [snorts] So, this kind of pulls it together into one program. Okay. All of these other pieces like National Honor Society where they do community service, that fuels into this. The uh Lions Club, those things fuel into this. Uh Mr. Betett and
021I had a great meeting with the town of Lennox on some of the things that we could be collaborating with them. [snorts] some of that can feed into this program. Um, going into next year with uh Brenda's help, we're going to come up with kind of a uniform reporting service for all of our uh public service hours that are happening with our kids. Um, and all of that's going to be wrapped up into this nice bow. Um, my anticipation of meeting with the department after break, I really should be giving at least 20 of these for this for this school year based on the experiences and what I know is already out there. That number could potentially, not a promise, that could double to 40 easily based on what I know of our kids. We
022just haven't sat down after we got the nice set approval to break out where the kids are point-wise. So, any questions for me? >> I just just a comment this 4 plus one pathway that is huge >> without a doubt. >> Amazing. us coming up with options too in like the nice thing about this and again credit goes to the middle school and the high school social studies department. If you adapt your curriculum to be flexible to fit this program, it's just kids going through school. We are the ones who set the structures for it and we give them the supports. These are extra recognitions that we can credit our kids with for just doing what we're doing [snorts] every day. But we have to make what we're doing every day just a bit more
023special. That's great. >> Thanks. >> It's a nice option. I would just say Mr. Gard nice option for our students because [cough and laughter] you know you're talking about >> well it could be a regular part of moving through our program. But the nice thing is it's I believe it's like 30 30 something% of schools offer this. So it's not available every year. It's probably in the neighborhood of one out of every three or so actually have the option. So it is a nice option [snorts] for our kids to >> correct and look at some of our kids who might go into a civics type you know career having this recognition and having that to go into a college program right looking at future you know service in college programs having this in there it
024checks a lot of boxes so it was one of the things when [clears throat] I identified it in coming here it was one of my priorities right out of the gate. >> Thank you. Thank you. Okay, next up we have our um department updates. And because she's probably going to deliver a dynamic presentation, we only have one today. >> No pressure. No [laughter] pressure. Um, so when I left off in December, I said we were wrapping up things for the year and we were going to hit the ground running in January. And boy, have we. Annual season is well underway. Um, we would like to extend a sincere thank you to all of our families and teachers and staff that have been so patient um, [snorts] and flexible with using the snow days and the
025delays that we've had. we've had to reschedule a lot of meetings. Um so we really try to make them um within a week or two to stick within timelines doesn't always work. So we appreciate everyone being flexible and sometimes that means having seven meetings in a day, but we we take it we take it in stride and [clears throat] um we're making sure that we're meeting our students needs. We are also slowly getting into that end of the year for our seniorsish area. Um, so we have started kind of ramping up some of our community organizations that push in. Um, Access VR was scheduled for I think two of those snow days at this point. So, we've gotten creative with our Access VR rep. Um, today, for example, she had a number of appointments. They
026were virtual. Um, we set we set the computer up in a in an office. the kids came down and we helped facilitate that so that they can meet with the outside agencies so that they can have a plan for what they're going to do next year and the supports in place without continuously rescheduling. Um, so we appreciate her flexibility on that and the students being flexible as well. Um, and then we had a training scheduled on one of our delay days and after talking with a trainer who works with the New York State Partnership, um, we decided to reschedule. The two-hour delay was going to be just enough to kind of cut off the the bulk of the training um, without those extra two hours. So, that is rescheduled for the week after February break.
027And we are hosting so we will have teachers from other local schools. I know there's a couple of Onida teachers going, a couple of BBS [snorts] teachers that will be coming. It'll be here at Robert Street um during the day and it was our turn. So last year BBS hosted it and I attended along with a number of our teachers. So we're looking forward to opening our doors um to that on February 27th. And then [snorts] the only other thing is that at this time the New York State partnership has met with every building level principal and their MTSS behavioral PBIS team to kind of lay that groundwork moving forward as we start to look at some of our data and how we're going to continue to support students moving forward. Um, and more information
028will be coming out about that as well. But lots going on and I feel like it's going to be one of those months where all of a sudden you blink and it's June. So, but thank you. >> Can we do that now? >> Everybody blink. [laughter] [clears throat] >> He said a student just helped them so it sounds like they're okay. >> Oh, there they are. Look at that. >> Right on time. [laughter] >> And you're up. >> You have the floor. >> [laughter] >> Little snowy up there on campus. [snorts] >> Is it snowy now? >> Yes. >> Too hard. >> Do you Do you need a minute or do you want you We just finished one presentation. So you can you can >> go if you're ready. >> We're always ready. >> Okay.
029You just roll right up to >> Okay. So, we have um we have uh Mr. Scottman and Lisa Lisa Decker from excuse [clears throat] me, Boseies to present their administrative administrative budget. M we have the whole we have Mr. Williams, Dr. Williams here as well. So, we have [snorts] >> we have the whole team here. >> Give them a minute to pass things out. Thank you. >> How are you? >> Hello. >> Thank you. >> All right. Thank you. Thank you for having us. I'm Scott Bman, district superintendent of Madison. This is Lisa Becker. She's the deputy superintendent of Boseies. And Matt Williams is the assistant superintendent instruction at Madison County Boseies. And I just want to thank you for giving us a few minutes to help uh to let us walk you through the
030our budget to talk to you a little bit about Boseies and learn about some of our instructional programs. Excuse me. So if you take a look at the the notebook in front of you, the spiralbound notebook, we open to the first page. First page is just sort of an organization chart for Boseies. Boseies is a little bit different than a school district. So every school district with the exception of the big five and then four other school districts in the state belong to a Boseies and our Boseies oversees nine school districts. and partly somewhat this New York state school for the deaf which has a little bit of a different arrangement but we also somewhat do some work with them and Boseies operate a little bit like a county if you think of a school
031district as a town for example so we have some supervisory responsibility over school districts but we're also set up to serve school districts so if you look at our organization chart you can see that there's a district superintendent that's me a little [snorts] bit of a difference between a superintendent and a district superintendent is that I have a bifurcated role so since 1910 there have been district superintendents that have sort of semi-supervisory role over uh school districts uh and we report directly to the commissioner district superintendent as opposed to school superintendents and then in 1948 the legislature decided it was going to put in place this thing called boseies and after they created the boseies they said well who's going to supervise the boseies and they put it on the place of the district superintendent
032so my role at Boseies is somewhat like a superintendent but then I also have some regional responsibilities as a district superintendent Another difference you'll see with our Boseies uh between our Boseies and a school district is that we have the standard structure similar to a school district. I have somebody who works with finances like Mrs. George, Lisa Deckard, and then Matt Williams is the instructional piece. We also have a regional information center, a technology leader, and you can see that reflected in the organization chart. So we serve to have a a third arm. And our our executive director for the regional information center, Heather Mahoney, essentially operates like an assistant superintendent. So if you turn to the next page, talk a little bit about how those works in terms of revenue. The very [snorts] first
033page says taxes at the top. I like to think of this document as our revenue uh document and it says taxes, but the reality is Boseies does not levy tax. We don't have the power to levy tax. Next line says state aid. We also do not get state aid. So the primary source of bo Boseis funding is from school districts. We operate according to demand. Basically, we provide services if we're asked to provide them. We don't do things we're not asked to do. In fact, we're statutoily not permitted to do things unless unless at least two school districts request services. So we're we're market driven because we respond to demand, but we don't have a profit incentive. So if you drop down a couple of lines, you can see that we have a we have
034to adopt a balanced budget just like a school district. We're not allowed to maintain a general fund balance. So at the end of the school year when we take in revenue from school districts, any of the revenue that we do not use, we have to give back to school districts. So we don't really have a savings account. We're subject to the same auditing requirements that school districts are. And our staffing is a little bit more nimble than a school district because we staff up and we staff down every year based on what the service requests are from the school districts. So turning to the other the next page, how do we know what to do? So basically we, as I said earlier, we're only permitted to provide things that school districts actually ask us to
035do. So we're a creature of the market, although we're public sector, we're market driven. So school districts independently choose what services to participate in or what not to participate in or the extent to which they want to participate every year by May 1st. So Mr. Veta and his team get together and they look at BOSI services and they decide well what can we do on our own better? What can we do with Bosey's better and they make decisions every year and we build our budget based on that. We anticipate needs. So every fall beginning in about October, September, October, we assemble committees of superintendents. They take a look at our program budgets. They go line by line and they help us make decisions about what services we're going to provide for the following year. So,
036it's very participatory. And then if you look at the other side of the the document, I'm sorry, the right hand column, benchmarking against competition. So, we try to ensure that our prices are competitive even in a in a private sector market. Now, there's not really a private sector market for teachers, of course, but we provide a lot of other services like technology, legal services, central bus maintenance services, business services, print shop services, all of those management side services. We ensure that they're basically market driven. We turn to the next page. Some information about the Mohawk Regional Information Center. I think I mentioned to you earlier that you know I have two assistant superintendents actually a deputy and assistant superintendent and then Heather Mahoney actually operates like an assistant superintendent. So our service area is nine
037school districts but our regional information uh center services 49 school districts across four Boseies. As I said earlier almost [snorts] every school district in the state is a is a participant in a Boseies and there are 37 Boseies in the state. So 37 people like me but only 12 of those Boseies have ricks and this Boseies has a Rick. So what happens is that the ricks service more than one Boseies area and our Boseies our Boseies is one of those rigs. Next few pages are just some information about the Rick Read at your leisure. And then finally the next page in recent years even prior to the commissioner's request that people start thinking about sharing services we had noticed that for at least two decades probably between 40 and 45% of all seniors [snorts] across
038all juniors and seniors across all nine school districts have come to Boseis participate in Boseis but that number never grew and so what we've done is we've tried to make CTE programs and other programs points more available to school districts by pushing out into the community because we know that your enrollments are shrinking. We know that you have empty buildings. We know that your kids want hands-on learning opportunities. And so this is just a quick overview of where our programs are uh currently. I'm going to hand things over to Matt Williams so that he can talk to you a little bit about our instructional programs. Thank you. Uh first I I I love coming into different settings and just by the students that you meet the the sort of knowing the culture that exists here
039is we were lost coming in other than that, right? Uh this one uh student in red pointed [snorts] out that we were lost and went down the hall towards the gym, thought maybe we wanted to come watch some basketball. We went the other way and thankfully there was a the young man said, "You probably belong in the library." >> [laughter] >> So, I don't know how he knew that, but he helped us find our way. So, good job. Thank you for uh helping us find our way. Um just on the topic of students, just if you will just grab the student spotlight that is with the packet. And I always just I love how the participation was sort of highlighting a couple students like really just starts to like tell the theme of just why
040I'm thankful that I get to support kids in the region and specifically you know your students in Canesa is just such wonderful accomplishments and then if you take the three of them together it it paints this picture of all of the ways in which we get to work with you to support your students right like students that are doing new visions professions students that you know maybe we're looking for a little bit more um wraparound services and some help and support and then other students that are in if you will some sort of like classic um CTE programs uh like ecoin there. So it's just one it's a testament to the work that you're doing uh and we're happy to walk arm-in- arm with you in terms of supporting the great work that you're doing
041for your students. Um I'm going to flip to the secondary programs page. This is uh modeling the Brits. Uh this runs the gamut from alternative education to special ed CTE programming. There's a great adjoining page that really again celebrates where your students are going, what your students are accomplishing. And one of the things that I wanted to point out is your district's participation rate in New Visions programming. So New Visions programming is senior year uh students that may be collegiate bound, but they're trying to figure out where they want to sit in the world. uh they pick up a number of dual credits. Uh but that's really a testament to again what your counselors are working with your students on. Uh and again just taking advantage of opportunities that exist. Also at the bottom it
042shows just all of the different CTE programs that students are participating in. And this is also a really great story is um that was a big that was sort of suspect that something would ever happen with Micron. I don't know if people have found or followed this is certainly we're in Canada are in catchment zone and employment zone and it's not often talked about in terms of micron right it's it's 40 minutes to the site it's close we're talking about huge numbers of jobs eventually we are talking about high-tech jobs clean room jobs all those things they brag about but I don't know if people have paid attention to what's happening right now on the site not necessarily a test but it's they're taking down trees with bulldozers and heavy equipment and I think this
043is a thing that we need to be aware as a region uh and certainly superintendent of Senate is involved with these discussions quite extensively about how are we just meeting the diverse opportunities that will be present and again slightly repetitive yeah there will be high-end engineering and clean tech clean tech jobs but we also will always need someone to run restaurants bring in the dump truck of gravel it just there will be a diversity of opportunities so in terms of where what can representing is you're representing students that are preparing themselves for just a diversity of opportunities. Uh Scott talked about it briefly, but if you flip the page, you'll see it's two it's two kind of brochures and again we're in a very unique uh physical location that we've been building some satellite opportunities
044with Sunni MBCC in Rome and then Sunni Mortisville down in Morrisville. And this again is taking advantage of some of the unique characteristics of these these colleges. Uh higherend opportunities such as engineering that a number of your students take advantage of at MVCC. Uh we also have a number of programs that uh we're supporting uh the design of and implementation of that are right here physically located in Kanesa. But these are just great things to think about as a district as um things that are innovative and cutting edge that we're just working to build relationships and um pathways with with multiple opportunities for students. If you go to this credit sheet, I put this in here. The takeaway that I want you to have for this is we want students to have vertically aligned opportunities
045and have multiple offramps to be successful. So certainly this represents some of the dual credits that are available to students uh in new missions programming and in CTE programming. This can very easily lead students to uh enter into associates degree, enter into a balora degree. But we also very much recognize that students can finish where they want to and have a credential to be successful when they decide to finish. show a student graduates from high school, has uh a CTE credential and heavy equipment, they're able to gain employment. If they want to continue on and progress in their education, they're picking up college credits. They can enter into other opportunities. So, if you will, one of these takeaways is vertically aligned programming because we want students to be able to be successful where they want
046to be successful. Um, just moving to an additional resource. There's this CTE guide, and it's not something that you necessarily need to memorize. Um, but if you flip to page 21, I just want to show you it. It's the heavy equipment page, kind of this theme with the the micron idea. This shows you what careers that particular CTE program are preparing students for. It shows you some of the articulation agreements, the the college credits that they're picking up. It takes you through in the lower leftand corner the number of high school credits 7.5 that they're they're picking up. This is a great resource for you as a board, for you as a a parent, for you as an advocate just to be aware that this is present. You know, certainly this is something that guidance
047counselors have, your counselors have, but it's just a great resource as students are trying to navigate opportunities in the world. There there's lots of extension of opportunities that are your opportunities that you're supporting through BOSI. So, I just want you to be aware that that is present. Um, and it can be a great tool. Flipping back to kind of this main packet, just a couple more uh levels I want to take each of you through. Middle level, uh, that's Owen Moranville. Again, we're talking about a diversity of special ed uh, intensive supports. Um, a bright futures [clears throat] academy that provides more wraparound services for students that just maybe need a smaller setting. Uh it also provides just the connected community school support. So what we've listed out for you is just kind of a
048list so that you can see as a board who's taking advantage of those programs. Uh it's something again that it just is available to support your students more broadly in the region. Similarly for elementary programs just flip a couple pages over. Uh director Amanda Hopkins. These are programs such as uh the prek program that uh is absolutely amazing that you you as a board and a community uh support here in canes. Uh you also have programs that again special ed oriented stars oriented that is a sort of a behavioral program where we're trying to very quickly get students back on track uh in terms of their academic career. Um you'll also see things in terms of discipline training. It's it's working with teachers to help them respond to some adverse behaviors that student might students
049might be experiencing. So again, that just showing you the diversity of opportunities that are available as students need those opportunities. Flipping again just to the next page, staff and curriculum development. This is the support that has in terms of, you know, thinking of professional development opportunities for students, uh, arts and education opportunities. There's a list on the right side is this is a way in which we uh you know can generate a share and make efficiency of of cost for students to get a number of enrichment opportunities and then for your instructional leaders to get a number of supports as as they grow and develop. So certainly a a behind the scenes service but something that is a really important way in which we can support uh your classroom teachers and and leaders. So the
050thing I want to leave you with is it's this last uh kind of ancillary supporting document is sometimes I think as a region we just need to remember that we also have through those um consortium of continuing education and just a diversity of options. You know if you wanted to just flip to uh it's page five like the instruction [clears throat] and career trades. This is designed for adults in the region that are looking for an opportunity to re-engage their education. You know, maybe they never went through a heavy equipment pathway, maybe they never got a chance to do an HVAC class, but they're able to access that through many of the resources that we have on the Verona campus and also uh into uh the Udica areas is we as Madison and Ice run
051this consortium that supports a broad section of the Mohawk Valley. Um, so again, this is just a great resource to be aware of. Uh, if you want to brush up on your Italian Christmas cookie making, you can do that. Uh, if you need to do some welding, you can do that as well. It's just it's it's quite extensive in terms of all of the opportunities that it has for adult learners. Just caveat of this is this is not this is a a different funding paradigm. Uh, it's a bit grant funded. It's tuition based. That's why you'll see a tuition cost. So it's certainly the the student the young adult that's looking to participate in that uh needs to work with some of our folks to navigate um enrollment. So just want to make sure you
052have that resource and know that's available and a big thank you for letting us support you and the wonderful work that you're doing and providing for your students. So I I don't know if there's certainly you can ask questions at any time. If there's specific instructional questions we can do that now. We can also wait to the end. But again, thank you. >> Thank you. evening. So the next section in the the spiral out book um you'll see it's entitled management services. So those are more of the back office services support services that I work pretty closely with Mrs. own to um partner with Panesa on several of those services like our central business office um our workers comp consortium uh cooperative fitting service um you'll see that we have a pretty robust uh print
053shop so we offer printing services and special projects as requested uh transportation services so we have the Castello bus garage over um over in Onida and um we do bus repairs and um DOT inspections and such training um to support your your driving staff. Um, also, UKOTA partners with us on our labor relations and policy and legal services. Um, so as Scott mentioned earlier, we do have um some attorneys on staff. So, um, we always say please don't, you know, get rid of your your school attorney. It's important to to have a school attorney and um, you know, but we do have attorneys on staff that specialize in certain areas like education law, ed 2D. they can help with privacy um agreements with uh with your your uh technology vendors um contracts um and and
054so on. So if there's an opportunity to le leverage them um we are very competitive um in our rates for that service. Um school food management. So Holly Efron um runs the school food management service and and partners with your district to provide meals for students. Um you also participate in our courier service as well as um all of our component districts are uh have access to our New York State regional certification office. So our director of HR um as a liaison for the state ed department and can help um teacher people in pursuit of their teaching certificates. And then the next few pages are just um really more um description about each of those services. Uh we also have a a grant writer on staff that's available to you. So uh if you need
055help in in getting some extra funding through grant opportunities, we can help with that as well. I'm actually going to go ahead and and go right to the uh the blue page. So towards the back um and if you flip kind of to the second page that's that's a landscape. I'll start um where the heading says administrative budget on top and and just walk you through our proposed administrative budget. Um so this administrative budget has similar elements to your your budget. Uh we have our central uh uh administrative staff as well as business office staff in this budget. Any French related to those positions, some line items for equipment, supply and supplies and software. uh rand borrowings in the event that we have to borrow a rand [snorts] for cash flow purposes in the summer.
056Um other expenses include any uh meetings, mileage workshops for for those um staff members included in the budget as well as our board expenses. Um auditor, so we have our independent audit as well as an internal audit. Um, so similar to your requirements, membership fees. So we're members of um, NISBA, Niscus, um, New York State ASPO, the Association of School Business Officials, Morazzda Rural Schools, and the statewide school finance consortium. And these memberships help give us some advocacy tools um, on behalf of the region. Under contractual, we have our actuarial study that's required, IRS compliance, um, banking fees, um, school boards institute. We also have our legal [snorts] fees in this budget as well as a line item for superintendent regional meetings and some staff development. Um and then postage and advertising for legal notices.
057And then down below you'll see internal charges. So um just as you participate in both these programs, we also pay our share um for things such as printing, communications, our flex plan administration, and administrative technology support to the Rick for our business office. So the 2526 current budget for those direct expenses is 1,779.88 and proposed is 1,847649. And then if you flip to the back um something that's unique about a Bosey's budget is that we have to show our obligation for all of our retirees from every program um in the administrative budget. So this includes all uh uh health insurance obligation for 296 retirees currently. We're anticipating 20 for next year. So with that retirey health insurance obligation, the current budget is 7,495365 [snorts] and for 2627 proposed $8,28,676. Part C you see the revenue
058sources. So any of the interest earned comes comes in to support this budget as well as any indirect costs from grants. Um our retirey drug subsidy um reimbursement comes in to support this budget as well. The second line item um there under part C is collections in advance. So this is um off completely offsets that that retirey health obligation up front and or up above in part B. And so we set aside one uh year's worth of that obligation every year to cover that. And finally, the balance is um allocated uh across the local component districts. So we have nine component districts currently contributing 1,287,36 and for next year proposed 1,36,500. So down below you'll see how that's allocated across all nine districts and it's based on our WADA resident weighted average daily attendance. So
059these are figures that um go into uh are reported to SED um every year and it's based on um your average daily attendance. Um elementary students are weighted at one uh secondary students are weighted at one and a half. Uh currently Canes Stood's Arwatas is calculated at 1,244. Um goes down next year to 1237 decrease of seven Arwatada. Um and that uh translates into a percent share. So regionally Canes Stood contributes 9% this year goes down to 8.9% next year. um dollar share this year is 115,843 [snorts] and for next year proposed 1168.91. Uh the next column is the estimated aid ratio. So this again is um a a calculation that's done by the state education department and it's based on your arwada as well as um property values. Um so current estimated arwatada aid
060ratio 79.2 2 and for next year goes to 76.7. Um the next column is the estimated aid that's driven. So when when you purchase Boseis aable services um there's a a return from the state to incentivize those services. And uh recently there was an update in the excess salary deduction. So since the early 90s any Bosey's aidable services uh the salaries of employees was only aided well up to the first 30,000 of salary. This year that went up to 40,000 and next year it's going up to 50,000. And so that's generating you'll see more aid for canes. This year estimated at 61,101 and for next year 64951. So after the aid is driven um the estimated local share after aid for this year is 54,742 and estimated for next year's proposed 51940. There any questions
061about the budget or the allocation. So I'll walk you through the next budget on the green paper and that's our van capital budget has two elements. Um so both these rents are programs um from component districts um or space for programs in component districts. So for instance in Canestood we have the sports management and exercise class [clears throat] here. So um it's a revenue for school districts and it's an expense on the on the Boseis budget. We have a a committee of superintendent that's similar to um the the program budgets. They look at the rent budget and they determine the rates for the upcoming year. Um, we've adjusted those rates for next year to kind of try to keep up with the market a little bit as far as our landlords are concerned. Um, especially
062we we do rent a lot of space for special ed classes and we we mainstream some of those kids into those classes. So, we want to be supportive of our landlords who are are kind enough to host us. We've also anticipated five extra spaces for next year. Um there looks to be some opportunity potentially in the BBS school district [snorts] next year with their redistricting of um potentially opening up some new programs. So we plan for that expense. Um the second piece of that budget is the facilities projects. So um we do safety, security, site work and reconfigurations. Um and the total budget for 2526 for both of those elements is 1,842639. Estimated for 2627 is 1,8858 or 2.3% change. And so if you look at the bottom again, same allocation as the administrative budget.
063So you'll see Canon's allocation um 9% um dollar share at 165816 estimated local share after overseas [snorts] aid 34490 and then for next year uh 8.9% share um as a a contribution and then after aid 39,296. Any questions on that budget? Okay. Um, if you do have some some stars with your packet, uh, we have an open house coming up on March 19th as well as our annual meeting on April 15th. So, um, we'd love to see you all there. Thank you for having us tonight. Appreciate your time. >> Thank you. >> Can I ask one question before um you guys go? Um, one of the conversations we've had as a district u revolves around our prek program. Um, and with that, um, is the expense and the aid of our our grants of our
064prek program. And I know that, um, one of our issues that we've had is not being able to maximize our grant money. Um, so I'm wondering if you guys would be committed to sitting down with the district and looking at that because our local share of that um, comes up to about $200,000 that we are putting through our local share. That's taking away from some of our other programs. So, we were curious about um looking at ability to maximize our grant money and I know we've tried to have some of those conversations in the past um and they haven't always been receptive. So, I'm wondering if you're willing to sit down and talk about some of those um concerns so that way we can maximize our money and put some of our our grant money
065and put some of our u money we're putting towards um the local share to this into our other programs. Um so, that was something that I was hoping you guys would commit to. I'm having further conversations with Sean and Tracy and our board about that. >> Yes, absolutely. >> Okay. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> You know where you're going. >> Thank you. Okay, moving into new business. Excuse me. Resolved that upon the recommendation of the superintendent of schools, the board is hereby approved the 2026 bus proposition resolution by roll call vote as per the attachment. Uh this is a roll call vote. So, as I um say your name, please say out loud what how you vote. >> Trusty Blanchard, >> hi. >> Trusty. Trusty CNCola. >> Yes. >> Trusty Kitchen. >> Yes. >>
066Uh Trusty Owners votes yay. Trustee Bazar, >> yay. >> Trustee Stevens, >> yes. Excuse me. [clears throat] >> Wow. >> Uh resolved that upon a recommendation of the superintendent of schools, the board does hereby approve the following new business items. The time and location for the budget trustee vote on May 19th, which will be the uh high school tunnel. The time of the vote will be 1 1 1 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Madison County user agreement to use two voting machines and voting equipment for the 2026 27 budget and trustee vote to be held on May 19th, 2026 and the 2026 2027 student program calendar. Do I have a motion? >> So moved. >> Do I have a second? >> Second. >> All those in favor? >> Opposed? >> Motion carried. Student board member update.
067Mr. Hawkins. >> Um, so currently me and Rowan, who's not here, are currently working on two things that we're going to present next hopefully next meeting and otherwise have no other updates. >> Okay. >> Can you give us a little hint? >> Hello. So, I think Roman's working on reworking some parts of the code of conduct to be more updated to more modern times, mostly with AI and technology use in our school. >> Okay, cool. >> Excited to see what you guys come up with. >> Thank you. Uh committee committee reports. um start facilities. Uh we have not met since the last meeting, but we are meeting the 19th of this month. Correct. >> Correct. >> Uh academic. >> Well, we met twice. So, >> yes, we did. >> Um couple we talked about a
068couple topics uh with regard to uh retention and grading policy. Um district committees are [snorts] meeting with regard to that topic. Um their first meeting was actually held today. Uh the goal was to develop regulations for decision-m process for uh retention. So there's some district-wide consistency with that with an eye set to the 202627 school year implementation of building level plans hopefully done by May. and reviewing the homework policy to generate guidance for the policy committee to consider removing and replacing um hypersp specific current guidance in that policy. Um we talked about the portrait of a graduate initiative. Um it seems like it's a coalescing narrowing and focus to inquiry based learning. Um there's a new name they're trying to coin for it that I neglected to write down. Sean, if you could remind me.
069>> New York Inspires. So get ready to hear a little bit more uh of that name. But um our microcredentiing pathways that we already have and are expanding seem like they could be a good uh blueprint to uh set up um interdisiplinary programs along that vein. Uh currently looking to new programs after discussion with regional partners to be ready to pivot when the state moves for specific guidance. Um for example, a state uh credential with Brian Miller. um professional development um board's going to be getting a report on uh some historical data about how we've done PD in the past and um some comparisons for different options looking forward um just so that we're all a little bit more informed about how and why we do things and can have those uh conversations. Um we
070have an upcoming PD day I want to say that was I write that down March 20th. Um there's some teacher feedback that guided us towards uh flexibility in what programs were be offered on that day by building department and grade level teams. Um range of activity list is in development. Um some conversation on you know science work with interorbit um PD currently being rolled out. Um the district advisory uh committee um is leading those retention talks. curriculum council is uh reviewing that science work um with interorbit. Um Rob Carter also leading some workshops that are very much uh appreciated and anticipated. Um faculty advisory committee uh finally getting that um committee list formed for staff to be able to uh see options they have to engage with the broader school community, working on descriptors for
071each one. um they've been talking about how to tackle chronic absenteeism and what we do with that. Um there's faculty interest in uh PD for new teachers, you know, behavior management, best practices inhouse and out of district sources, which um just kind of feeds into that larger PD discussion that we can be having. And uh we're still looking at interactive workshops for community and parents. uh you know, Ready, Rosie, the Anxious Generation, and some other uh you know, topics considering survey to community for interest in what topics they'd like to see or be [snorts] part of. Our next meeting is March 9th, and our goal is to have two more meetings before uh yeah, man, if I remember the committee that you were talking about before, Greg, that that could have landed a lot better
072than before facilities meets again. [laughter] >> Wow. >> Could you repeat that again? >> All right. I shot my head. >> Uh next up, uh finance. >> Um F. We've also met um multiple times since last meeting. Um but um obviously we have a budget to build. Um so uh they're in the process of of working on that, working what our um levy [snorts] um is going to be. So we'll have that for the next meeting. Um the big thing that as we see all of these nice upgrades we have to the district um we do have to pay for it. Um so one of the things that will be in in this upcoming budget that so people don't freak out and we'll talk about this a lot is that yes there's going to be
073um a bigger um bigger uh budget this year. But part of that is driven because of we have to pay for the project and then there will be aid coming back to offset a lot of that cost. So, yes, our operating expenses look like they're they're growing bigger, but it's because we have to pay for the project. So, um there will [snorts] be aid in that. So, it it's not just we're, you know, throwing all this money into the district. There is a purpose to that and um it's not as bad as it kind of is going to look like. So, we'll talk a lot about that um upcoming in the next couple weeks as the budget comes out. So, um, we weren't going to freak people out that were just throwing like millions of
074more dollars into, um, the the school budget when actually it's coming back in some. So, um, we will meet again in two weeks and I'm assuming probably much more often um, as we come up to the vote. >> Thank you. Uh, excuse me. Policy >> um, policy has not met. We'll be meeting on March 10th. >> Okay. Safety, >> we meet on Thursday. >> On Thursday. Okay. Uh, next we have the board comment period. Any >> anything? >> Um, shout out to our students that participate in all county last month in Janango. We had middle school and high school representation for chorus and band. It was a great performance if anybody was able to attend. So, shout out to our music department for helping our children succeed. Anybody else? Okay. Uh, super superintendent report. Mr.
075um, everybody I think has the capital project update. The current project continues to move along. Um, nice to start to see some things get checked off the list, but we still hit we know we have a lot of big projects that are still on the list. Um, the auditorium, the gym, cafeteria space. So looking forward to just really getting through the next several months um to that finish line. We'll continue to uh update the public in the community in general on the twists and turns that the project makes because there are a lot of twists and turns in a project of this magnitude. So but we again appreciate everybody's patience um with all of that. couple of events coming up that uh may be of interest to people. The athletic advisory council is having their
076second offering of a topic that was really you know people that attended really largely picked the topic which is going to be uh nutrition for developing athletes. Uh we had a session centered on injury prevention. Um, wish I had taken that, you know, back in the day when I uh maybe I could have avoided some of the injuries. Uh, nutrition though, topic that everybody's interested in. We invite people to attend. It's open to the public. It's uh scheduled for March 5th at 5:30 p.m. There'll be more information coming out. Just reminding people um that that's on the calendar. [snorts] Um that's again just the the second and what's going to be a continuing series. That's not going to be it yet. There'll be more, but we need people to participate and really give us some
077ideas of what do you want to hear about. Uh obviously the athletic advisory council is is focused on things, you know, linked to to sports and athletics and nutrition, things like that. If people are interested in getting involved more broadly, our pack committee uh meeting is is uh continuing their work, their meeting on March 4th uh at 5:00 p.m. Again, that's in this room. Both of those sessions, the AAC and the PAC meeting are both in this room. So we invite anybody who wants to be involved in something positive and you know being a part of a process of uh getting good things in place for our students and our school in general then please uh join us on those days. Uh we're hoping it's not a snow day. We've dodged the uh some issues
078lately. We uh but we appreciate everybody's patience with some of the the issues we've dealt with with weather. Just to reiterate, we do have a plan. We want to remind people to to and and have students, parents, everybody really remembering um make sure you know that we have their their Chromebooks with them for example because we may at any given time we hopefully we'll get through or you know we'll get through the the rest of the winter uh unscathed and and uh won't need to to uh use a vote. if if we have to, we have a plan. Uh just make sure we have a charged up Chromebook and uh and um you know, we'll get our way through it. So, speaking of of snow days and things that you know, with an eye towards
079next year, um we are we tonight uh adopted the program calendar for next year, the 26 27 calendar. Um we want to get that out. that will be coming out uh shortly so people can start looking at where are the vacation weeks and you know the start and end uh dates of school. Just want to point out when this calendar comes out. It's very interesting year going into the new calendar year because Labor Day is as late as it can possibly be. it is uh September 7th and so we along with with districts uh really around the state around the region um are looking at an earlier uh start before Labor Day. Uh it's pretty common practice um and and again we're that's u what our neighbors in the region are doing as well. But
080um for all of those reasons, we just want to get that information out so people can start, you know, planning for their February breaks and April breaks and and those sorts of things next year. So look for that coming out soon. Um and just wanted to end on um a nice highlight. you know, uh, Miss Nent had alluded to and in our video, you're going to be seeing a clip of some nice publicity that our um that our school received um in our in the cool schools feature where the second school went after they started that uh feature, we were the second school profiled. Um, but we want to remind people of some of the things we talked about because again, it's about opportunities [snorts] for students when we talk about connection to the local
081uh businesses and community. And so that's going to be coming out again to outline some of the things that are in place, highlight some of the things related to our credential program and things like that. But I also wanted to really acknowledge the good work that uh our adviserss and our students are doing with our esports program. we were featured in that uh that nice followup feature on on News Channel 9. Um and it was nice because it wasn't just about an esports program. It was nice to shine a light on on the opportunities that kids have as far as available scholarships and career opportunities. But it was really neat to see how it fits into the larger picture of what's happening in [snorts] upstate New York. you know, Syracuse University is a is a
082a big uh player in that in that space. Um, and it was nice that because of our our feature on Friday morning lights, Syracuse extends an offer to our esports students to go up and see their facilities, you know, and so it's it's nice to see how one thing leads to another and doors are opening for our kids and our programs and we want to keep that positive momentum going. So, good job by our adviserss and our uh our students who are really pioneers in that respect and that we're, you know, doing some pretty cool things and they're trailblazers. So, that's what I have. >> Thank you. Uh, personnel recommendations. Please note all appointments are pending. Clearance on fingerprinting. Permanent appointments.
