001Okay, good evening everyone. We'll call the meeting to order. Can you please rise for the pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, liberty and justice for all. >> Thank you. We'll open the meeting up to uh public comment. again uh agenda items only for the front end and then back end you can ask general questions. So we'll open it up to public comment. Okay, we'll close public comment. Uh we're going into our special presentation. Leaders of the pack, we'll call up the elementary school first. Good evening everyone. Um, we have Mila Forester, our October leader of the pack. She's in second grade in Mrs. Finch's class. Mrs. Finch says, "Mila is a hard worker and a loyal friend.
002A standout skill for Mila is her ability to describe her problem solving strategies for all academic areas in a way that assists her here. Our favorite time of the of the day is when we share daily affirmations and Mila is always thoughtful and introspective and choosing hers each day. In a few words, Mila is gentle, kind, curious, attentive, friendly, and amazing. Coach Helmer, your PE teacher, says, "In physical education, Mila comes to class prepared for activity on a daily basis. Mila always has a smile on her face and is very respectful. Mrs. Patra Shock, your library teacher, said, "I can always count on Mila to be a positive presence in our library. She's responsible, respectful, and a true asset to our school community." Mrs. McCaffrey said, "Mila is such a wonderful student in music. She
003always makes the best choices, and she's always participating. I can tell she loves to sing. Keep it up, Mila. We're gonna do a few pictures here. We'll smile. >> I got this almost. >> Look over here. Looking straight ahead. >> Look over here at this one. >> And then I know we have this one. Mom or dad or anyone wants to grab pictures, please come. >> They're coming up. >> Yeah. Get in the way of this one. >> Oh, you wanted. Go ahead. You guys take it first. >> Thanks. >> All right. Look at this one first. >> All right. Nice. >> All right. Ready? Here we go, Dad. >> One, two, three. Cheese. Okay, now we're in middle school. >> Hi everybody. Um, our leader of the pack is Alana Sh. Um, I will
004summarize because all her teachers kind of said the same thing that Alana, this is my favorite one. Alana enters class like she's having the best day every day. Her positivity, participation, and excitement for learning are unmatched by her peers. Um, Alana is such a smart and dedicated student. She's like having another teacher in the classroom. Her strong work ethic and commitment is a great model to all other students. Truly an asset. So, everyone had comments that talked about not only her academics and how hard she works, but her character as a person and as a leader, which we love. >> Great with your certificate. >> Alan, you going to join her? Beautiful. >> A little more. >> All right, here we go. Um, just to piggyback, Alana comes to the high school for her geometry
005class and she comes in just like you said, bubbly and so happy every single day. I'm like, "Oh, she's just so fun." When she walks in, I'm like, "Oh, she's just so excited to be here." So, congratulations. Um, so for the high school, we have Matthew Castellano. Um, I have to say that the responses I got is probably the most I've ever gotten from anybody that spoke really highly about his character. So, some of the things your teacher said, Mr. Tatum is his English teacher. I just met Matthew this September, but he was my top choice for leader of the pack. I've seen him helping out with our new student, walking him to classes, helping him communicate with his teachers, and just being a general source of comfort and support dinosaurs. Um, Miss Garcia, guidance
006counselor, talked about the same idea of Matthew being part of taking on the role of being a role model for a new student who does not speak any English. Correct. And he comes in and he >> introduced him. So he helped him first off, but then on top of it, he also introduced him to all his friends, brought him into lunch, they play soccer together, and he just made this really awesome community for one of our new students. So it just talks about how thoughtful he is as a person. Um, Dr. Scro said, "Matt is hardworking and dedicated student learner in the classroom. He has an optimistic demeanor and a kind heart." U, Mr. Early, your soccer coach. Matt is a great soccer player and an even better person. and he is kind, compassionate, and
007gives his all. I could not think of anyone else who deserves this more. Um, and Mr. Shaw, his band teacher. Uh, Matt is an integral member of both the concert band and jazz ensemble. He's a quiet leader whose dedication and musical talent consistently elevates those around him. Matt has shown remarkable growth over his two years, two plus years at Highland High School, and he's truly a pleasure to have in the music department. Come here, Matt. Play a trumpet at one of the upcoming concerts. So, as you can hear, he is a well-rounded leader in our building at all times. So, congratulations. Yeah, right. Get them on the field. >> So, we'll start with this one here. >> All right. Great. Now, press Again, on behalf of the board of education, congratulations to all our leaders
008at PAC. Job well done. Uh if you'd like, you can you can leave where you want to stay. You can listen to the rest of our meeting. You're free to go. >> Okay, we have our consent items. Uh tonight it's EA1 to C.2. Um as usual, if you have any questions, comments, uh want to pull a item, we can do that. Take a look real quick and then I'll entertain a motion to move the consent item forward. >> A motion, second by Heather. Any questions? All in favor? >> Opposed? Carry. >> Okay, we'll move on to our principal report. >> Elementary reverse order. >> All right. Um, I just have one kind of cool addition to my board report. Um, we started getting and out our coins to for our book vending machine. Um, we
009handed out nine so far. We had an absence we would have did 10. um and five have selected their books and f and there's four that were like we're going to come back and so they could there was like multiple books they wanted to get and so they're I don't know if they're going to put um buy it at the the book fair or if they're just going to go for it one of the two. So um we're starting to see certain books rifle out of there a little bit quicker. So So that's my addition. Anyone have any questions? Anything else? >> Thanks, Ian. >> Thank you. >> Middle school. >> All right. Uh, one quick addition. Um, actually it's middle school and elementary school, but we're doing our PTAs are doing a joint fundraiser
010for blankets. Um, so they're $30. Um, the website is on here if you're interested or you could email me. I sent out a K12 to parents in the middle school earlier at the end of last week, but I I brought flyers for everybody. Um, so if you'd like to buy a blanket, it supports both the elementary school and the middle school PTA. So that is my chart. >> I'll throw that in the >> Um, so that is my um update. Uh, does anybody have any questions? >> Good. Thanks. >> Appreciate it. >> Hey, you got an email. Good evening everybody. I have one addition to my high school board report. On the 29th we are uh hosting a in a community event with Olter County Prevention Council um on vaping and substance abuse. Uh this
011is a division of family services um that both the middle school and I work closely with uh in educating our students on making good choices. Um they did also partner up with peer leadership last year um to put on an event for the middle school to help our eighth graders transition to the high school. So they've been a great benefit to our district so far. So this special event they do run in a lot of um local districts where they provide a mock teen bedroom on possible hiding spots and things to look for uh for parents and community members. Uh we did have some help uh through social media on sharing this and I believe we're up to 30 close to 30 shares on this event uh through the community. So we're looking forward to
012having that at the high school cafeteria. So I just wanted to invite uh everybody if they're able to make it u for this important event for our kids. Any questions for >> No, I think he but I think he brings up a a an interesting point where you know the that there's companies out there that create apparel and objects to hide things in plain sight and unless you take one of these classes and are shown. Uh so I think it would be a great interest to parents and I hope they participate. So thanks thanks for sponsoring it. >> Thank you. >> Yes. >> Okay. Any further questions? >> Thank you. Okay, our director's report. I'm sure everybody got a chance to review the director's report. Uh, our directors are here this evening. So, if you
013have any questions for our directors, shout them out. >> As usual, I guess our directors are doing a fabulous job and there's no questions. they're doing a incredible job and um I appreciate in transportation the creative ways that she's trying to recruit drivers and things like that. So, uh I hope that goes well and continued success Kathy, that job fair is coming up. You haven't attended it yet, right? >> Thursday. >> No, it's Thursday. >> Thursday. >> Okay. Uh we'll move on to our student rep, Logan. >> All right. So, starting off in the elementary school, uh the elementary school is continuing to provide students with the opportunities to engage, lead, and make a difference in their school community. This year, the school has launched a new student voice club, which is open to fifth
014grade students led by Miss ASA. The club has 12 members and meets twice a month after school. The club empowers students to share their ideas, lead projects, and positively impact the school environment. The Student Voice Club is actively planning ways to enhance the school community, including designing and creating bulletin boards that highlight the important celebrations and themes for students, writing scripts for morning announcements that showcase the diversity of the student body, planning and executing a service project to benefit the school community. This initiative along with other school programs provides students with meaningful leadership opportunities while fostering creativity, collaborate school pride. Moving on to the middle school. The middle school is excited to celebrate school spirit and in student engagement this fall. The middle school will be hosting its own pep rally this Friday in support
015of all of our wonderful student athletes. Students are looking forward to showing their school pride by coming in blue and yellow and cheering on their classmates. In addition, they will also be hosting its first spirit week of the year from October 24th through Halloween. Um it will include a comfy day where students wear sweats or pajamas. Dark mode day, students wear all black. Swap day, students dress like teachers and teachers dress like students. Uh plaid ops day, students wear plaid, flannel or camo. And a trick-or- treat day, students wear their Halloween costumes. The events encourage school pride, creativity, and community while giving students a fun way to express themselves and celebrate together. Now, on to the high school. October has been a busy and exciting month at the high school. We're in the middle of
016homecoming week, and school spirit is at an all-time high. Spirit week kicked off with themed dressup days. Monday was meme day. Tuesday twin day. Wednesday is pink out for breast cancer awareness. Thursday is decades day. And Friday wraps up with class colors for our pep rally. Freshman in blue, sophomores in red, juniors in white, and seniors in black. Our pep rally will feature a four-way class competition with three games, musical chairs, tugof-war, and a new challenge which we're calling the pizza box game. Classes will also be judged on their school spirit and class banners, which have become a fun and creative tradition for homecoming week. The homecoming football game will be Friday night at 7 p.m. here at the high school against Monaceel. And the homecoming dance will be Saturday the 25th at 6:30 p.m.
017in the high school with the theme being Tangled in reference to the Disney movie. And then that same Friday, the stop DWI program will be visiting during lunch periods to give a presentation on safe decision-making, a timely and important message going into the homecoming weekend. Then our citizenship and action and oh my gosh, sorry. Our citizenship and action class took a trip to the Olter County building where we were given a tour by our elected county officials, including members of the county clerk, county executive, and county legislator offices. It was a great opportunity for us students to learn about how county governments are operated and see firsthand the roles of these officials and how they play in serving our community. And then lastly, as part of a CIA project, students Amelia Halbon and Kelly Flores
018hosted a lunch and learn focused on Hispanic Heritage Month. Their goal was to spread awareness and educate students about Hispanic culture. The event featured themed foods like empanadas generously donated by El Paso, a local restaurant in town. It was a big success and a great example of students connecting in the classroom and learning with our community. And that's all I have on my report. >> Any questions? >> Very comprehensive. >> You helped me cross out some of my report. >> Very good. Thank you, Logan. >> Okay, we'll go to Dr. Boyd for assistance superintendent report. So, I'm going to uh talk a little bit tonight about um I've been mentioning the portrait of a graduate uh over the last few meetings. There's a sheet on your uh desk. This is the image that uh the
019state has put out that we're kind of seeing everywhere. >> Um so, tonight I just kind of want to give you a little bit of background on it. kind of where how we got to where we are where we are now and where we're going with it. Um, as you'll see from, you know, some of these slides, there's still a lot of unknown here. Um, but we are planning um for it. So, this actually started back in 2019 uh with our current commissioner when she was our uh region's chancellor. uh she started the uh blue ribbon commission uh which really wanted to look at our graduation requirements and uh what we wanted students to have and to be able to do when they when they leave us after 12th grade. Um and as you can
020see we're already six years later still with some questions. Um so just uh some key points on that. Again they created to look at our graduation requirements. Um they started gathering information from stakeholders. they started to develop. This has been altered and changed throughout um on the timeline. They presented some of the graduation members uh measures to the board of regents back in November of 2023. They had new framework. They held more forums. They asked for more information. Um and then finally July of this year uh they put out the final portrait of a portrait of a graduate uh which is on that sheet in front of you. again what they want to look at they want to know the skills attributes um to make them successful whether it's college or career once they leave
021here. Um so this is kind of a statewide vision of what we want our students uh to be able to do uh and the attributes. So they broke it down into four transformations. Uh so the first one being the adopt the New York State portrait of graduate which happened in July of 2025. The second part is going to be redefining credits and learning experiences. So, some of the information that we got is that this is probably coming out this spring. We don't know what that's going to look like regarding um the credits. Uh they've talked about some of the things that they do want to see, uh which I'll talk about in a minute. You have a >> Yeah. Are New York educators involved in that process? That would be my question. >> Uh yes.
022Yeah. Um, so when uh the one of the assistant commissioners um back at a meeting back in the summer kind of talked about that this was coming that they're working. Um we don't know if they're going to it's going to be a bigger shift with the graduation requirements or if it's going to be more minor shifts. Um we're not really sure what that's going to look like. As you've heard, they keep using the word decoupling um when they're talking about regions examinations. Um so they're using the term the sunsetting diploma assessment requirements. Again, we're not very clear on what exactly that's going to look like. They are not getting rid of the region's exams. Uh but they're looking again, this whole idea was providing alternative pathways for students uh for graduation. So, um, as this
023is, you know, coming down, we'll start to unpack a little bit more. Uh, and the fourth transformation, uh, moving to one New York State diploma. We currently have three, which would be our regions, our advanced regions and our local diploma, which have different requirements. So, they're moving away from those three. And the goal at the end of this that there'll be one high school diploma uh, with certain designations uh, to go with it. So on the sheet that you have in front of you uh the six tenants that I mentioned at the last meeting academically prepared uh they want a strong foundation and learning standards. Creative innovator uh utilizing our imagination, curiosity and flexible thinking. Critical thinker analyzing information thoughtfully uh looking at evidence critically. Effective communicator being able to articulate our ideas clearly and
024confidently. Global citizen acting responsibly. uh within local, global, and digital communities uh and reflective and future focused uh engaging in self-reflection uh to look at your own strengths and and weaknesses. Uh so this is again the image that um is going to be put out and you'll be seeing uh pretty consistently. So as part of the timeline um in 2425 this is again this is from the state this timeline uh finalizing the course of graduate which they did in July. Uh back in the spring they did put out uh an exemption for major life events. So if a student was uh sick and hospitalized or there was a death in a close family member which would have prevented the student from taking the exam. there's a certain uh exemption that could be applied if they
025met some of the requirements. Uh as you can see, they're going to release the new credit requirements um which they say is phasing in with the 2027 cohort. So that are those are the students that are entering 9th grade in September of 2027. Uh looking at changing the standards, putting out rubrics and more guidance in the 26 27 school year. Um and these are two of the the original focuses that they talked about. So financial literacy was one of the big ones that they wanted uh students to have. Uh and the other one climate education that has um more recently lost some funding and some support. So we're not sure uh where that is going to fall. Um but it sounds like the financial literacy piece uh is is still moving forward. 2728 one diploma
026starting to sunset the diploma assessment requirements talking about some of the seals and the endorsements uh for that one diploma and putting out finalized rubrics and guidance uh best practices for innovation and implementation and then fall of 29 and beyond that's that plus sign that they're putting out um new transcripts uh and you know putting in the port of graduate and then here they They labeled new assessments aligned to prioritized learning standards. We're really not clear on on where that's going with that piece. Um so again, we're kind of in a in a little bit of a holding looking at it. So 23 cohorts, 23 that entered 9th grade and prior, everything kind of uh moves along as the same. the cohorts um who entered nth grade in 24, 25, and 26, they are saying
027uh one diploma, but it's still the current credit requirements. So those students that entered 9th grade in 24, 25, and 26, the current uh requirements for uh credit still stands. Um and then they're talking about the diploma assessment requirements decoupled by the fall of 2027. Uh cohorts in 2728, again, one diploma. Uh the new credit requirements should be in place for those students uh for those again those students entering 9th grade in 27 and 28. Uh and then they are suns setting the current diploma assessment requirements and then the cohort 29 and beyond uh should be full implementation as they're calling it uh for these new standards and requirements. Um so again just some things to note. So those that 2728 cohort uh we're going to see some new credit requirements. Um and again we're
028we're waiting on those on what they look like. Uh and 2029, so that graduating class of 2033 will be the full implementation of this. Um so until that until that time though, we're still looking at our our current graduation requirements. Uh so what does this mean for us? Currently, our administrative team has been attending New York Inspires meetings at Olster Boseies. We attended one uh just a few weeks ago to gather some more information uh and some of the initial work that we're looking to do is kind of look at our current academic offerings and programs and how that might align. So, as I mentioned earlier, like the financial financial literacy, do we have that at the high school? That is a class that we offer. Um so looking at hopefully that does meet the
029requirements that they're putting out. Um and then starting to meet with some of the stakeholders to gather some more information on what portrait of graduate looks like in high for us as well. So connecting our community to it. Uh and just finally this is looking at how we prepare our students for the future. Uh so they identified that there was a a change that we needed to make uh that we could do some improvements um for students uh when they leave here after 12th grade. Uh so this is all part of the process. As you're looking at this, this is a long process, right? This started back in 2019 and they're looking at 10 years later of starting to phase in that full implement implementation. So we are in in the middle of it right
030now. Um, so we are doing some of that work, but it is, you know, some waiting too to see uh some more clear guidance from the state. >> Patrick, is there any point in time that we'll be able to present this to the parents in the community as how this is going to play out >> in a public forum setting? So, I think once we have a better idea of the credit requirement, which is hopefully this winter and spring, I think that will because right now there's going to be probably more questions than >> I think once that gets us to that point of once we have a better idea of what that looks like. We don't know if they're really shifting this a lot or if it's a if it's a minor shift and
031it's still going to be, you know, 22 credits and not much of a change, you know, then we can put that out there. Um, you know, the hard part about this is, you know, as a parent when you're looking like, all right, what grade, what year is my kid entering ninth grade? You know, how is this going to affect me? And then the difficult part of, you know, one year apart could be a big difference in in some of the graduation requirements. So, and you know, have they have they have to phase it in at some point and there's no great way to do it without starting back all the way at the beginning of kindergarten. you know, when we're looking at the cohort of entering of 2025 kindergarten students. Um, so, you know, we'll
032see how it unfolds, but I think once we have a better idea of the credit requirements, then we can gather some more information that we have a little bit of a more clear picture to present to them. >> I'm hoping that internships are part of this. Uh, you know, of course, you're going to need some academic requirements to make the but, you know, this is something they've talked about for years, but have never been able to operationalize it. um I think some schools have, but it's really their own type of thing because you still have a local option that's going to be going away. >> So, um you know, otherwise it's just another set of standards and here we go again. >> But again, some of those alternative pathways to be great for some of
033our students. >> Absolutely. >> But how we logistically do that is is something that we're going to need to navigate. >> Okay. Any questions for Dr. Boyd? >> Please. I think my son went into kindergarten in 2019 when this work started and he'll be the 28 cohort going into ninth grade. So all through >> all throughout. >> So it just shows how much like to put into perspective of one person's like career, right? Like >> all the work. Yeah. Right. >> Okay. Any other anything else? All right. Uh superintendence report. >> All right. Well, thank you to everybody for eliminating my report, but just a reminder to the board, I sent out um a calendar invite for the board retreat that will be held on November 19th, 6 p.m. And uh we'll get you more
034information um as that gets gets closer. Also, a reminder, I mentioned it at the last couple of meetings, this is my last time being able to mention it, but we are honoring Steve Lawback as the dist distinguished friend of education on Thursday, November 20th at the venue in Kingston. Um there's still time for board members to RSVP to Lisa to get on that list. Um one thing that wasn't mentioned this evening, so I I want to mention is thank you to the high school uh guidance department putting on a financial aid night for our parents uh and families on Thursday, November 6th at 5:30 and helping them go through the FASA uh process, which is um something that we're required to to do. Um, we've always done it here, but it's now a requirement to
035have every uh student partake in at least the FASA or uh a waiver to that. Uh, they mentioned the vape presentation, but I want to thank the administrators for uh working so hard to get the that community vape presentation uh up and organized. It wasn't a lot of time that they had to do that and they pulled it all together. So, I really hope the community takes advantage of that because vaping is becoming one of the big it's it's the next big issue that uh you know our students are facing. So, you mentioned it. So, I'm going to just mention thank you to Kathy. She again being creative. She found uh that the Duchess County Regional Chamber of Commerce is ho hosting a job fair this Thursday and she uh is able to go and
036possibly recruit bus drivers. I will not mention homecoming again because you already did that. Our superintendent's conference day plans are well underway for th or for Tuesday, November 4th, and admin will be going over uh those um plans tomorrow at our cabinet meeting. And then finally, uh our 2022 capital improvement project is we're in the final stages. We're wrapping some of that up. We will have some change orders that are coming uh within the next week or so. So, we may need a uh an emergency board meeting or a special board meeting, not not an emergency, a special meeting to approve some change orders so that we can get the funding uh out so that we can close out the pro parts of the project so that our aid flows appropriately for the upcoming year.
037I'll get you more information uh after early next week. And that's all I have. Any questions for the superintendent? >> Just to piggy back what the superintendent mentioned regarding our capital project. Um our director of facilities, our business official uh support service has been working uh hard the last couple weeks to kind of iron out some issues that we've had with the project. uh minor things, but uh those that effect closing out everything and finalizing change orders like superintendent mentioned to allow us to uh you know have the building aid flow in our direction. So I just want to thank everybody that's working diligently to to make that all happen. Um, any other questions, >> you know, on as far as the capital project? I mean, allowances are still available and >> there's still some
038resources there. >> Believe there's still contingency money uh left in. I think there's some item that the support service is going to kind of discuss that we might be able to to peg you back onto that, >> right? uh additional funding that's there to uh complete some items that weren't uh included in some of the uh contracts. >> Great. >> Okay. Um board of education new business just something to to kind of follow through with that same vein talking about the capital project. Just something for board members to keep on your radar for for the future. Um there were some items in our current capital project because of uh funding uh that uh some cost overruns that didn't meet the uh bonding ability that voters approved. Um those things still have to be done. They're
039probably top of our priority list. So something to keep in the back of our mind to uh move forward in the next couple of years. Uh once uh we get over this project, there's always more more to do. >> Survey. Okay. And we do have our building condition survey. Um, so there are some priority items that are still outstanding that we'd want to accomplish in the near future. And then again going through u our bonding consultants to see where, you know, debt dropped off and where we could uh fund another project. And we do have the capital reserve to help with that. Okay. Um, anything else under new business you want to bring up? Old business, uh, board retreat. Uh, Joel touched on that. Uh, we have, uh, some topics already out to our facilitator
040for that retreat. Uh if you want and you think of something that you know you want to have addressed that night, send an email on to Joel and he could u add that to the list. Currently we're talking about um a couple items uh power and authority of the board of education as trustee speaking on it behalf of the board confidentiality. Uh we're going to touch on those topics. uh responding to complaints brought to the trustee. So, if you're out and about and you hear something, we'll we'll touch on that. Uh freedom of information law regarding emails, even text messages, uh district records and data privacy. We're going to touch on that and any current legal updates. We'll have some some discussion regarding that. So, is there anything else that you come to the top
041of your mind that you want to have addressed just forwarded on to the superintendent? >> We have a 2hour plus window. So, >> so Allison Smith, just so you're I failed to mention that Allison Smith from legal counsel will be there to to host us or guide us through. >> Facilitate. That's the word. >> Okay.
