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. Before we jump into routine matters, I'd like to take a motion for executive session to discuss a quick personnel item that has been brought to our attention. Uh, if I can have a motion. I move. Second. Second. All those in favor? I opposed. Motion carried. We are in executive session. This should be quick and we will return for regular meetings shortly. Thank you. expected. Back to our regular agenda for this evening. Well, Mr. Sales, are we good back there? Far left. Thank you. Um, moving on
002to routine matters. Resolved upon the recommendation of the superintendent of schools, the board does hereby approve the following routine matters. Board of Adm minutes from May 13, 2025, the CSSE recommendations listed here in your packet as well as a treasurer's report for April 2025. Do I have a motion? So moved. Second. Second. Any discussion? All those in favor? I opposed. Carried. Moving on to presentations. I have capital project presentation. Should have panicked that while you were in it. Didn't think about it. So this is just a quick snapshot. This will be a similar report that the board will get on a monthly basis. Um, you've got a couple photographs there showing some before and after pictures in some of the areas that we're in the auditorium, the uh middle school kitchen and cafeteria. So, it's
003interesting when you start going through a project and you see the before and after. We'll get these pictures posted up to the website also and start, you know, start a um a tracking of what's happening. So you'll get some current updated photos each month and then a subnopsis on the back just really a highle view of what's happening. This will be the board report. July and August uh you will have a representative from Turner come in. They'll do a report to the board certainly in the two months in the summertime when there's a lot of work and then um unless unless we decide to change that going forward, they will report to the board on a quarterly basis and Sean or I will just do a quick uh monthly report. So again, this is kind
004of just that snapshot of what you'll see. Uh most likely it will end up in your board packets and then you know we can certainly review it here. Thank you. Any questions? Thank you. Thank you for the update. Uh next presentation is the athletic update. Mr. Dan [Music] Thank you. [Music] I'm going to start off just with a spring update of our season. Um what we have first are our girls records for each of their sports this spring. Um modified softball as you see did well. They had a 10-2 season. Uh I want to add with modified softball a lot of the teams that they played have ninth graders. Uh but our team only had seventh and eighth graders. So they still finished 10 and two and had a very good year. Uh girls varsity
005track another good season. We went four and one. We were second in the center state conference out of five teams. And then at the end of the year center state conference league meet we were third out of five teams. And then overall in section 3 class B2 we were six out of 12 teams. So good season for the girls. Varsity softball we are 12 and eight. Six in the center state out of nine and we were one and one in the sectionals. Uh highlight of the season is going into the first round of sectionals. We defeated the number three seed going in sections. We were 14 seed. So that was a great accomplishment for our softball team. varsity golf this year. Uh they went one and five, had a bunch of rain out, so unfortunately
006we couldn't make a lot of those up. Um but they they did get a chance to golf this year, which is great. Uh moving on to the boys. Uh our boys modified baseball team went 14-0. Um great accomplishment. Doesn't matter what age level you are, you can have undefeated season. You know, parents, athletes, coaches, everyone's going to remember that. So, you know, 14-0, great season for them. boys varsity tennis. They went 12 and three this year. They were first in the center state conference out of six teams and it was our first uh league championship title since 1977. So that was 48 years ago was the last time we won a league title in boys tennis. Um unfortunately when we got time for the sectionals our boys had some other commitments some of them so
007we didn't have a full team. We did lose first round sectionals but uh great season for them. Boys varsity track went 4-1. They were also second in the center state conference regular season out of five teams. They were second at the end of the year league meet out of five teams. And then uh did fantastic at sectionals. Placing third out of 12 in the B2s. Varsity baseball. Same thing. A bunch of rain outs unfortunately for them. Just couldn't find days to make up. Everybody's fields were were soaked. Uh I don't think that capital project had our turf baseball field coming but maybe it's something you don't get as much rain. Uh but they finished seven and seven. They are fourth in the center state out of 10 and they lost to the open round sectional.
008So the team that went on to win the section three championship which was solid. Our boys varsity golf team was three and 10. They were fourth of the CSC's out of five. Uh some individual accomplishments I do want to talk about uh you know the track cuz it's not every time you get school records. Um but we had a bunch accomplished this year. Now these are mile split records. What I want to say about mile split records is it's not like when I was in school where you sit there with a stopwatch and you're hitting it. These have to be digital times. So mile split records started about 1998. So some of these could still be your school records or they could be uh maybe not. Maybe we had some good teams also in the
00990s and 80s. But for mile split record school records on the girl side. Kelly Condan uh broke two records in the 100 hurdles in the Patlon. Also, Olivia Paige from the shot put broke a mile record. The boys, they had several. Uh, Cole, he was the long jump. Um, he broke the long jump record, which was his own record. Uh, Cole is moving on to the states this weekend, uh, Friday and Saturday to beat the New York state championships at Middletown. Cole also was the triple jump uh, record holder now, 43 ft 9 3/4 in. Marcus Reier discus 135 and three miles also record uh 4x1 throwers. What this is is uh you know we go to some some fun meets and one we always go to is called the Junkyard Relays in Clinton and
010uh so anyone that throws a shot putter at disc they can go on a relay so it's pretty fun to watch. Uh they broke um their school record and that consist of Marcus Reier, David Telly's, Eric Drake and Quinton Cornmouth. Uh the distance me relays another record for the boys that consisted of Ryan Sanderson, Thomas Gleska, Ty Hawkins, and Tyler Deandto. And our boys 4x100 relay team. They actually broke that record three times this year. So this is the last one at the state walls. They, you know, Cass was always right up there, Clinton and us. Some of the top teams in the section were also some of the better times in the state. Unfortunately, we're always behind Clinton and Cass until it counted. We end up knocking them off and they're going to the
011states uh Friday and Saturday. Uh that that team in 4x100 is Cole, Brandon Elliot, Carter Jquin, and Ryan Sanderson. Do want to do another shout out to Cole as uh the Center State Conference League meet that's always held at the end of the year. He broke the record in the league meet um that was held uh by West Canada student in 2013. Uh now Cole has a record with a 22 ft 4 and a quarter um job. Moving on to uh some participants. I don't know, you know, obviously living here sometimes you hear some talk about numbers being down and and chatter in case some of you guys have. I do want to point out uh our numbers are are we're doing well. Our numbers are well actually a lot of EDS ask me some
012of our neighbors how come your numbers keep going up. You know when they're losing a lot of teams are folding entire programs, not just levels. Uh we are doing well. Um I didn't do the 20 uh 2020 2021 season that was co I did start that and I was like wow these are really off you know so it would have been much lower but then actually that year some kids had four sports they could you would compete in so looking at the data though in 202122 we had 593 participants now let me explain that so it's not 593 students so you know uh that would have took a long time to compile but it's every student in 7th through 12th grade uh that played either one, two or three sports. So in like I said
013the 202122 season we had 593 the following year 602 last year 647 and then this year um 685. What I like also is our seniors sometimes our seniors since I've been here they weren't always uh participating especially in the spring season. Um last year for uh three sport athlete awards that we always hand out at the end of the year 17 three sport athletes last year there was 31 were handed out this year. So a lot of our seniors I don't know how many we have maybe we have 100 in the senior class but if you look at that if we have 100 that's 31% of our uh seniors play three sports or more. So that's that's pretty um last year I think if you guys remember I was really proud. So all my years
014as an ad account when I was at Herkimer and here uh unfortunately I've been close but we never were recognized by the New York State Public Association uh as a school of excellence. So what you have to do is each team your varsity team if you meet the criteria to be a scholar athlete team um if 75% more of your teams do that you get to be a school of excellence. So for the second year in a row we're now going to be recognized. So in the second year of my career so I'm excited about that. Uh Cara is here. So, I got to mention this. Last night was a great night. Uh Thomas Glesca at Caritchen were our recipients for the section 3 scar athlete award. We had a nice dinner at the SRC
015Arena. Um section 3 really does a nice job with this. They take care of our athletes. Uh they give every every male and female from every school gets to nominate someone. They get a $100 bill. They get a pullover. They get a plaque. And then they're nominated for some other awards. Uh waited till the end. It got to the last awards of the night, the Coca-Cola awards, which are the largest awards. They give out four or $500 ones or $4,000 ones and we're waited and they caught Carrie Kitchen. So there was $4,000 awards and Cara got that. So very proud of that. [Music] [Applause] I don't know who made more. I was so excited. I sit there every year just waiting, waiting. I was like, they don't tell us so we don't know. like when
016they said it, I was like, "Yeah." Um, and then I do want to invite everyone here. Our um athletic scene awards championship banquet is Sunday, June 22nd at the doors at 1:00. Uh, you guys are more than welcome to to attend. And board members, you are free. So, if you want to attend, feel free. Any questions? I have one question, Sam. a little bit on the spot, but I'm curious what the two teams with the highest GPA for boys and girls were. If you know that yet. I do know that. Yeah. I announced that at the banquet. I could just secret. I could tell you later, but not. I do know that. Yeah. I I always like seeing our ac athletics um doing very well academically, too. So, that's always one of those things I
017like seeing that. And I agree with you. When I started here as the ad, you'll know I have a perpetual hopefully you come to the bingo, but I do have a perpetual plaque. So, every year it's honored with the team with the highest GPA, who the coach was, and what their GPA GPA is. So, I I do know it. I just can't announce it till the 22nd. So, any other questions? Any other questions? I can tell you it was a 94.01, I think. 94 something. So, that was their overall not taking. So, it was very good. 9401. How was that boys and girl? Like so is there like a it's with that award it goes modified JB and varsity. I count them all boys and girls. Yes. Okay. So it's not like a boys team
018that's top and a girls team that's top. It's just you do the one. Yeah. Do the one for usual. Yeah. So I agree with you. Yes. Any other questions? Which team was that? All right. Thank you. All right. Thanks Dan. Uh, next up is our building updates for our principles. [Music] To be two principles tonight. So, um, Mr. Schultz was not able to be here, so I have his update. So, um, here's the high school update with just three days left of classes. Um, the school the school year is winding down and they have some wonderful upcoming events. So, um, what two of them have already passed. The final band concert was on May 29th. Um, and special thank you to Miss Patchin for her leadership with our students. The final coral concert was on
019June 5th, June 4th. It was held outside of the middle school entrance. And, uh, thank you to Mr. Bou for leading our kids with that. They did a great job. Um, they just, oh, I guess there three things that have passed. The seniors just came back from their, um, senior trip. They had a great time. Um, and they're looking forward to their end of year events. So, they are starting a new tradition, the Caps and Gowns farewell tour. So, this Friday after their senior breakfast, they're going to get on the bus and walk around the elementary schools for the last time, come through the middle and high school um as a farewell tour to the school. And then graduation is on the 27th at 7:00 outside, weather permitting. So, Mr. Schultz ended with, "We look
020forward to a strong end of the school year." So, middle school update. So, um, want to start, we got our final, um, attendance report. Um, that was through May and we were holding strong at the middle school with every grade level above 90% of attendance. Fifth grade was 91.8, sixth grade 91.2, 7th 90.7, and eighth 90.8. So we have maintained above 90% attendance. Um we had 12 attendance meetings scheduled. Letters go out to um encourage parents to come in and three of them were attended. So again looking at areas of improvement. Um we need to work on a plan next year of how to um get our parents to come in and to improve our attendance and that's something we will keep working on. um end of the year events for the middle school. Today
021the fifth graders went to Chittnango Falls. They got a big break in the weather um from the rain and they returned before the porn happened again this afternoon. They had a great time. Um also we had some eighth graders taking the um bio regions today. Um Thursday we have our final eighth fifth through eighth band and chorus concert that will be here in the um late lunch. Um, next week some more fun activities. Tuesday the fifth graders go to Herka Diamond Mines. Wednesday the sixth graders go to Verona Beach. And on Friday, the seventh eighth graders go to Water Safari. We also have next week on the 17th some of our eighth graders again in the afternoon taking an algebra regions. So, Miss Badgely and I have um made a plan with the the parents
022and the students for them to come in um have a review. We'll feed them lunch and then um they'll be in a good mindset to take that afternoon regions. Um and then the last week of school where we have half days, we'll be having awards ceremonies. Um each grade level gets a day that they can go to ZMS and get some ice cream courtesy of our student government. And also we have a day that our fourth graders will come up and get a tour of the school and see the construction, but see where their classrooms will be next year. and um our eighth graders are going to be leading those scores for them. So that's a nice way to end the year. So that's what's going on in middle school. Any questions? Any questions? Thank
023you. Hi everyone. Just a few updates from Southside tonight. I was just thinking this really was the year of first at Southside. So the merger of third and fourth grade together. Um I just want to thank the staff for all of their work to include that focus on PBIS, our PBIS program. So each month we would um honor students or recognize them um for student of the month for if they were showed leadership or integrity or perseverance. And we also gave shoutouts with our goal to to have all students acknowledged and awarded. Um it's so important at this age, this age where they're higher level reasoning, they're taking risks. So just that importance to focus on doing what is right. Um just a a great opportunity for that learning as well as academics. And on
024last Friday at our last assembly, we had a pretty a fun guest speaker come in. Um she made a grand entrance. Um I I was standing at the doorway of the gymnasium and um Jeff from the Boxing Hall of Fame was in made the introduction and it was Mary Joe Sanders. She was an inductee last weekend. So she comes into the door and she's in Crocs and she does a full cartwheel to as an entry into the assembly. But um it was just such a great opportunity again that you know um connection with the community. It was really really fun. But back to the first so it was a first for um prek in our building and just each day they bring that sense of joy every day. You know it's just it's just so
025refreshing to have them with us. Um it was also a first to have CBT um practice during win this year which um giving all students that opportunity to practice using those tools is is was very very important this year because we switched to um computer-based testing for fourth and then um our third graders will have to get up on board. Um it was also a first to have um K6 social studies curriculum again critical um and it was it came out of our um instructional audit years ago that the importance of this. So I I just compliment Sean and Sue um Anderson for their work on that. It provides that instruction according to you know get providing that delivery of those standards at that grade level. So it it was void. You know, our our
026social studies teacher had the higher grades were um we needed that consistency. So um another first was we introduced our school dances at Southside. Um in fact, it was so popular in the fall we had to bring another one back in the spring. Um which um brings me to recognize that and thank our amazing PTA um support. They're they're just incredible people. They support both Peterborough and Southside and and I just have to acknowledge them by name. Stephanie Emmerick, Rebecca Emmerick, and Elizabeth Aman. Um and again, all the other volunteers who who make those such incredible memories for our students throughout the year. Um and then finally, just as we finish up the year, um we we did have we do have scheduled um field trips. Our fourth grade is taking a walking field trip
027to the library and they're each getting a library card. So, our ELA teachers were really proactive in getting the applications done. So, they're going to get their card um this next week. And they're also going to um go to the Erie Canal Museum and then of course um and then they also have a the fourth grade is taking a field trip to Fort Stanwick and um I just want to thank our SRO Mike. he's going to join them that day. So that it's just uh great support. And then finally, just as we finish out the year, uh Jen's second graders came over to our building today um and to take their tour of of Southside. And so we welcome them really joyfully. Just really excited about these transitions that we're starting to make. Third grade
028will be grouping. So our our grouping is that's a a scheduled meeting where we're going to place our our third grade students now in in fourth grade classrooms. So that's going to happen the last week of June. And then um fourth grade is going to head over to the middle school for their orientation on June 24th. So we just want to wish all the students success with all of their transitions um into their new grades. And that's all we have. But I do have to uh congratulate Cara Congratulations. Thank you. Good evening everyone. Um, so it is a fun and busy time here at Peter Street. Also, as Alan said, our second graders went over to visit Southside today and did their little tour. They're very excited. Um, in house, we are planning a moving
029up ceremony for those same second graders. This will be a first for them. Um, so we've got some fun events. Uh, one of which is the release of butterflies in honor of their classmate Primrose Wessel. So, the family wanted to donate um, butterflies. So, we have been going through the life cycle there and we'll be doing something special with those at the end of the week to honor their classmate. Um, we've been focusing on some health and safety items. Hopefully, um, you know, it's time of year kids are outside, they're up later. Uh we focused on bicycle safety at our morning program last week uh with our partners at connected. We're working on securing helmets for kiddos who don't have those. Um but we made it very real. We had some kiddos there with their
030bikes with their helmets on. So we talked about all the important things related to bicycle safety. Uh the K9 unit and the troopers are coming to visit next week. So we have some guests coming in. lots of field trips as um Ellen and Kristen both alluded to and a water theme for our field day uh this year. So those hopefully the weather's going to cooperate. We can do that on Monday. And of course kindergarten graduation is the the big deal on the 18th and that is taking place in the Deo Gym this year. So we're very excited about that. Any questions?

And yes, um really last before we move on, but Moren and Lauren, I know your last meeting, thank you guys for your service to the community. Lauren for probably far too long with your opinion, but um you guys have been a great help as um mentors.
040So, thank you guys for your service. [Applause] I could add to that, Lauren. Sure. Because I prepared something. Okay. Uh to Lauren, I wanted to publicly thank you for your years and years and years and years of dedicated service to the Canota School District. On a personal level, I wanted to thank you for all that you have taught me over this past year. It's been a hard year and I truly appreciate your dedication to fairness and equality as far as the board goes and uh for helping us newer trustees genuinely feel like contributing members of the team. Your ability to listen to and guide us while still respecting our autonomy, I'm sure was no easy task, but I feel that we made some great strides this year because of it. You will be missed by
041those of us who remain. And I know you don't believe it yet, but I can guarantee you that there will be a part of you that will miss us on July 8th. But, uh, thank you again. Just make sure you come to say hi every once in a while. We'll do. Thank you. Uh Marine, I want to thank you as well for your cool, quiet leadership. You are proof that rational thinking is absolutely poss possible no matter what the circumstances may be. Your thoughtful and measured approach to certain matters often provided the balance needed to make hard decisions. Um you are always a reminder of the importance of perspective, patience, and principle. I'm grateful for your example and for your service to our district. Please excuse me. Please make sure you continue to drop in
042every once in a while to visit. And if you happen to have vegetables from your garden with you, I won't be mad. But thank you. Thank you. Any other comments, superintendent for? All right. Um, it's almost impossible to talk about the events that happen this time of year. So, I will definitely refer people to the updated calendar because we'll we'll certainly miss some things that are important and and uh important at every level of the district. So, um just a couple of of things on the horizon when we're asking for uh help, assistance, input, feedback from the community. We have a couple of pack meetings on the horizon. One involves food. Um, well, I guess they both maybe involve some food, but one more so cuz it's uh the title is pizza with parents. So,
043that one centers around food. Uh, but we have one this Thursday. That's I'll call a regular pack meeting at 5:00. Uh, and then the pizza with parent session is on the um on the 16th at 5:00 as well. Um u again I would refer people to the end of year calendar but a couple of of big events that have large numbers of people that uh that will have an interest in uh attending uh the Bosei secondary completion ceremony um is coming up Monday the 16th um next Monday already I'm thinking of it it's further away it's already next Monday um and that's at Vernon Downs that which makes it a little interesting because it's weather dependent and and that date slides around based on the weather. So dates are on the 17th. So hopefully it
044gets done on the 16th. We don't have to deal with the weather. Yeah, we're basically told keep the whole week open. So um and then of course graduation, Carol mentioned that 7:00 on June 27th. We do not have a sliding time for that. uh decision at serve point needs to be made regarding whether we did that last year. The only difference is or what what the options are. Last year it was going to be out on the field or um in the auditorium which we had done um in the last couple of years. This year it's going to be the field or it's going to be back in the Deo gym, which I've actually not seen a graduation in the Deo gym, but like Nick Campbell and this team, that is old news for them.
045They've done that many times in that gym. Uh but not in the last six years, I guess. So, we'll either be on the field or or back in the gym um for graduation. Um again, a couple of just quick uh mentions. something that's been talked about a lot, not to be a downer, but uh cell phones, right? So, just want to important to and Miss Hunter is correct me. Internet assisted devices. I'm not using the correct enabled devices. I Yes, I need to evolve in my what I'm calling it. So, we had uh but we're involved uh in in looking at um what we need to include in in in updating our policy. We had a good uh conversation today. We'll be continuing in the coming weeks. Um we're really uh we need to have
046a new policy in place by August 1st. Sort of a tight timeline when the legislation didn't come about until just a couple weeks ago. Um yeah, really. So, we're we're moving along. The good news is a lot of what needs to happen is pretty I'll call it boilerplate. some decisions have been made at another level than than us. Um, but there are some areas where we are able to to do things that, you know, make sense for the district. And so, we're working through that process. Now, the idea is that, you know, we'd like to be able to formalize that policy after we've we've gone through all of the the the phases of of review and analysis. Um, so that we can have that in place for August 1st. Then the next big task is
047to u in the le in the weeks leading up to school to really articulate the expectations widely to everybody so everybody is completely understanding um you know what what the expectation is. I don't anticipate a problem. I mean, every school is is dealing with this and it's just something that um we need to do and and we need to be consistent in how we we um you know, carry everything out and communicate you know what the expectation is. So um so I don't want to end on that note because that's sort of a overly exciting topic. Um uh we had students this past week um involved throughout the boxing hall of fame induction weekend and Cara mentioned that just really want to mention what a cool opportunity that is because it really is unique to
048us. There's no other school in the state or in the country or the world who actually experiences that type of um that overall experience, not just the induction weekend, but leading up to to it. Um a lot of our students were engaged in in prepping for what happens and to be able to be involved with people um who are the best in their field. And sometimes I think it's lost. They think, well, it's boxers. Yes, it's boxers, but it's people are at the top of their profession in every area. There are people there who are uh writers and publicists and athletes and lawyers and doctors and you name it. They represent the best of what they do across the board. And so for our students to be able to interact uh is really uh meaningful
049and um and so we appreciate that and look forward to building on it. There's regional interest now from other districts because they've sort of seen what it's like. And we have some students from other districts who are a little jealous when um we had some of our students there one day. I won't mention his I don't think he'd mind, but I'll I won't mention the name, but there were the pictures of of the student one day standing next to Manny Pacquiao for boxing fans, one of the best boxers of all time, standing up on stage at the uh Hall of Fame banquet with a thousand people in attendance. The next day, he's sitting next to uh has a picture with Sydney Sweeney, the famous actress. So, he is definitely making the most out of the
050experience over those days. and pretty cool opportunity for the kids. So, um and also another highlight last week since our last meeting um unique scholarship uh ceremony. Um Sydney Owens was the recipient of the Rosetti scholarship which is not it's not like there's a lot of them that are awarded. They're typically uh my understanding is probably two um per year and and this has gone on for years in honor and memory of Andrew Rosetti um who was the former VBS superintendent and then Bosey's longtime Bose superintendent and so it was really nice. It's sort of a really a meaningful ceremony because the family there's a lot of the family members of uh Dr. Rosetti. And uh so it was a nice award for for Sydney to receive because it's um about um focusing on students
051who are going to be pursuing careers in education. Um so it was a nice award for her and uh nice for the district to be involved in in that Rosetti scholarship. I could keep going for there's a lot of stuff going on now, so I'll stop there. Okay. All right. Moving on to personnel recommendations. All appointments are pending clearance upon fingerprinting.
