Please stand and join us for the pledge of allegiance. >> I pledge algiance 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. >> Thank you. >> I do have a suggestion that we to rearrange a little bit of the agenda this evening and move our personnel by consent after B because we have someone here. It's we don't want to make them spend their volume either. >> May as well just move the whole section. I can agree with that. >> Okay, everyone's good with that. Are there any other questions
002on the agenda? >> Great. Do you want me to read off all of the new items? >> Sure. >> So, these are additions to when the agenda gets published on Saturday morning. So, anything that gets added after Saturday, I have new next to it and that's something we're adding to the agenda. Um so under personnel by consent um item 27 approval of MOA between MCSD and the CSEA regarding assistant school lunch manager. Item 28 approval to create assistant school lunch manager position. Item 29 approval of provisional appointment to assistant school lunch manager. Item 30, accept the resignation of the cook manager. Item 31, accept the resignation of teacher A.

003and the MTA regarding social worker representation. Item 13, approval of MOA between MCSD and the MTA regarding distance learning. Item 14, approval of MOA between MCSD and CSEA regarding transportation staff. >> That's it. >> Just changes in a lot of additions. >> All right. If there are no other questions other than moving the one section, can I get someone a motion? >> I'll move it. >> Thank you. >> Second. I'll second. >> Thank you. All in favor? I opposed. Abstain. Motion passes. We have no community comments. So, we will go right to the personnel consent agenda. So, we we do have one person here who is going to be a long-term elementary long-term suble teacher with us. So once we vote, we ask you to just run the gauntlet. We're going to shake your hand
004while the mute. All right. Does anyone have any questions on this section? If not, can we have a motion to approve, please? >> Okay. Second. >> All in favor? >> I opposed. Abstain. Motion passes. Brooke. So, we're excited to have Brooke return this school year. >> I was just excited he gets to leave now. >> Brooke was a long-term sub last year in special ed and this year she is coming back for us in third grade general ed. >> Thank you. >> Excellent. I know I recognize the name. So, welcome back. Congratulations. >> Thank you. >> Thanks. We won't make you stay. If you would like to leave, we completely understand. >> Not yet. >> A >> complete gauntlet. We got >> everyone in the audience. >> All right. Board of Education reports and discussion
005for county student representative, board president, superintendent worship. So Lydia, Dr. Lloyd and I went to a training at Ford County. Uh there were a lot of people there. That was possibly the biggest training I've been to in that building. They had to move us to a bigger room. It was interesting. Lots of schools, this is their first year of having a student rep. So, there were a lot of questions, a lot of nervous kids, and I think it helped the kids to realize they aren't the only one who's nervous. Um, we've done this for two years and still we we came up with more questions. Like, we've been thinking about this for two years. How does this feel new? Um, one of the things that we had talked about and wanted to talk about with
006everyone is finding a way to make the student representative heard or to give more opinions, find a way for kids to reach out to the student rep, them to reply back to the student body. >> We are lucky in the sense that our representative is actually the person who helps with the morning announcements. So the day after a board meeting, she can say, "Hey, these are the three hot topics we talked about last night. Hey, don't forget there's a board meeting and actually has a way to tell kids. Come see me if you need me. Here's my email." But I didn't know what everyone else thought about trying to get her a little more involved than we have in the last two years because really we've had them come and sit and give us an
007update and that's all you did. >> Oh, definitely. I think there's definitely tools, resources, strategies that we should be implementing to make our student representative more of a functioning member of the board rather than just a student announcement piece, which I don't mean that to say that Joey and Kora, they have both put so much. >> They did exactly what we >> Absolutely. So, it was super great to have them and I think just from them building on that position, we can now go forward and make it even stronger >> than before. >> So, I guess think about and we can talk about this more when we next week maybe ideas that you think maybe that they could do, how they could help, how they could be more integral to our meetings. Um, you were
008saying there's going to be another work shop where the kids can go back. So, four counties is really trying to from their end beef up what they I think what they're telling the kids they can do. >> Good. >> So, I don't know if it's worth finding out what they're getting a copy of that presentation so we know they have been told to >> to do. >> Oh, yeah. I'd love to see any presentations that were given just to be to know. >> I did bring in the booklet that we had. So, if anybody would like to take a look at it, I brought it to share it. Um, and then the other question that came up is they are still minors when they're sitting up here. Like, this was one that bugged me is
009how do we protect them if something goes wrong? Like, do we need to talk and have a plan? >> How do we whisker to the outside? How do we like what do we do? >> Yeah. >> Because if we wait and talk about it when it's happened, it's too late. >> Yeah. >> Again, Not something I think that we should talk about right out here because it's hey here's our safety plan >> but I think it's something we should consider that we have asked a minor to come set up here and there could be an upset parent. >> All right. Next we have the board admin retreat which is next Tuesday and it's also national hot dog day. So Nine and I were thinking maybe have some hot dogs. >> Perfect. >> That is at
0105:30 or 5. >> 5:30. >> Break the grill out. You probably do a tabletop if you don't mind. Fry. >> Yeah. I will just add on to that. Um >> that Rich and I have been working to uh organize like a little teach piece for everyone around the capital project. We had talked about that as being a focus area um so that the new board members, the new admin team uh can have information around like what a capital project looks like and maybe a good refresher honestly for all of us like if you've lived through it once like it's good I think to like as it comes around a second time like do that again. So, um, Rich and I have a little Zoom check-in later this week with, uh, Donigan, who will come and
011talk about like financial pieces and with SEI, our architectural firm, who will also come in and talk about plans for this project and just um, in general like project timeline. So you could always be good learning from them. >> And then the next item that I had down was looking ahead, not the last superintendent review, but deciding what document we are going to want to use for the superintendent review the coming year early or later this year just so that Dr. Lloyd has an idea of what it is she's going to be held accountable to. So, we've used the same document for multiple years. It seems to work. >> Three of us have used it. >> We've looked at multiple versions and everyone has its faults. It does. Everyone has its positives. >> And to
012me, it seems like we stay consistent with the document, the document we're using. At least it's consistent. >> I agree with that. >> Um, its faults are consistent, its positives are consistent. So, that would be my thought on that. >> I I would agree with that. But I didn't want to decide for a group. So >> yeah, I mean I think if Ellen is comfortable with it and we're comfortable with it and >> I think if in the future we ever want to change it, we should probably do a side by side and see if like if there's one we really want to look at and we run them both that year just because we might the outcome might be nothing like we are assuming it would be. >> But for right now I am
013completely okay if you are these are the same. >> Okay, cool. So on there there's goals. Do you we create the goals? >> In the past she's recommended goals that are say yes >> or no to or we want you to focus if if there's a specific area that we wanted a superintendent to focus on. We've kind of said hey we'd like a goal around this but typically I know you did it. Don has done it. They're focused around our district goals. So nothing can happen till after the retreat anyway, but we need to get them so we can put them in the document so that we have it ready for >> have it. >> Yep. And we're um our curriculum and instructional council is finishing tomorrow's their last summer planning day. So typically I
014try to like link my goals to like the districtwide goals, the building plan goals so that we're all aligned. >> So are we thinking by the end of September we'll see goals? >> Oh, sure. >> Present them. So, we all have them. >> Does that sound good? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Just trying to keep us up to date. Um, and in like January, let's set a date to do that in April because end of year always ends up running away from us. >> That's true. >> Okay. >> That's true. >> So, does anyone else have anything that they would like to report? >> Yeah. Uh so uh we my kids participated in the theater camp that we do in congruence with Williamson and Sodas that was run by peaceful schools and again it was a
015phenomenal experience. The little play that they put on was just magical and the friendships and connections and confidence boosts and you know all the stuff that comes out of that program is always just really awesome. Um, I haven't been able to have a shout out to summer school. So, everybody who had a hand in summer school, thank you. Great job. Excellent stuff because we al also participated in that. Um, and then, uh, the community gathering at the town park was really great last week. There was so many people. Um, it was a really great chance to kind of get out and like meet other parents and see some of our staff and the farm animals were out and the fire truck was there. So, it was it was a really great and well done community
016event. So, big big shout out to those folks too. >> The fret slept well. >> Saying it, oh, the fret slept well. >> You took the fret. >> The ferret lives at our house over the summer. >> Yeah. >> Yes. He was a he was a pop star that night. But >> happy went home and slept very well. >> A so turn it over to you then unless anyone else had something else. Okay. >> All right. So, um I'll start off with fall merge sports. I know last time we talked about the sports that would be merged for the fall um being golf, football, cross country, and our newest merge is soccer. Um there have been a lot of big emotions around soccer. Uh that's a place where Marion I think holds a lot of
017identity. Uh and that was something that I certainly heard from the community like that's a hard uh a hard one to hear is being merged. Um, our rationale for that was to be able to build a progression for students where they have the opportunity to play at modified JV and varsity level. Feeling like it provides through merging we're able to provide um, you know, a continuum for students so they have like a safe and healthy progression of sport. um along with numbers to be able to field teams to play games. Um not worrying about who might get injured um when we might need to forfeit. Those are things that we've run into with other sports in the past when our numbers drop low. Um we had a parent meeting to talk through the soccer merge,
018how it would work, hear some parent concerns. U Michelle attended that. I would say the biggest takeaway on my end um lives on the amount of notice people have for these mergers. We had originally put out soccer signups looking like they would be just a Marian team. The merge decision was made after like those signups came out. So, you know, some students had signed up well any student who signed up would have thought they were playing for just a Marian team. Like there was a bit of like surprise and shock that went into this decision. um or you know as a reaction to this decision. Um some concerns also around transportation especially for like summer practices. We are providing transportation um for to practices. Ganandanda is providing um transportation home for right now. So >>
019yes yep yep sorry. Yes. Um so that I think hopefully that will work out well for parents with um worrying less about transportation. Um you know we are really hopeful that this is an opportunity um for coaches to really focus on team building a positive environment for our athletes knowing that there's apprehension on both sides um about having a new merge program. So, um I know coaches are really focusing on team building as we get started with these new soccer ventures. So, um we'll keep working through that and checking in with coaches and athletic directors on how it's going. Um you know, I'll certainly continue to update the board on that. Um, but we're hopeful it's going to be something that even though it's a big adjustment, it's going to be something that's really positive
020for kids and for the overall like long-term health of our sports programming. Is there anything that I you feel like I forgot from that meeting that you would highlight? >> I would say that it the meeting came from a very emotional place from those who attended it. Mhm. >> Not. So, I think it we give them a little time to absorb some of the points we made will probably be more accepted because anyone who's played a sport understands that you need to have those progression steps or you actually end up with a hurt athlete. That's not what anybody wants. So, >> we did end up we did land having a coach from both schools. Okay. Yeah, we've talked about that for a while because I brought it up with >> because that that's that's the
021area where we've seem to have trouble with these merch sports is having >> for the kids to go. >> There's not someone local to out of our district to advocate for the students. >> Agreed. >> From our district. >> So, >> okay. I just wanted Yep. >> We had talked about that. I just want to make sure that that was when I say something like that that is an accurate decision. >> Okay. All right. Um, next just some updates around summer professional development. I'm like super proud of our team. Um, I think sometimes though we know we do great things, we like don't capitalize on opportunities to maybe share that. And I feel like uh that's one of the things I personally have been trying to like do a better job of like making sure
022people know we like do awesome things here. And honestly, like that realization came to me like around budget advocacy. Like come on people, like we're doing great things and like I think we need to share that more than we do. Um so I just wanted to highlight for the board some things that we've done just this summer to try and like share what we do here with others. Um Marian presented at the Wayne Fingerlakes Leadership Academy. So that is a professional development that happens for administrators in all 25 of the Boseies districts. Um it's open to administrators in all 25 of the districts. So Nikki Miller did a session, Casey Steiner and Emily Lorenzan and Lin Luca did a session and actually some of our students did a session on like youth voice leadership, the
023work they're doing through Wayne County Community Schools. So we were well represented there. Um Nikki and I attended the rural schools conference and we presented on our egg programming um specifically on our K12 progression when you look at like what we do through farm clubs CTE leading into middle level CTE and egg programming and FFA. So um that was a nice chance for us to highlight that specific strand for us. Um, we sent a team to a community schools, um, I would say like a basics, like an introduction to community schools training, um, at Syracuse and I participated in a panel on that to share what we're doing around community schools, um, the work that we've done so far and kind of our strategies for moving forward. Um, and also Casey and I just presented
024last week at the Wing County Community Schools Partnership to talk about strategic planning. Um, Nikki Miller is masterful at strategic planning and really has done a great job like building that as a system here in Marian. So, um, Casey and I went to share about how we do that process and really how to, um, adapt that process, maybe if you're not even a school, but to think about like here's our strategic planning outline, how we get buy in, how we, um, weave in things like mission, vision, core values into that planning process. So, we've been like out sharing the Marian story as much as we can. So, I just wanted the board to know that that's one of the things we've really I think worked hard on this summer and I'm proud of our team
025for. >> It's great. >> It's really impressive. >> Yeah, I feel great about it. Rolling right into our next thing, I will say this is like a very tangible payoff from some of this work that we've been doing. Um Casey worked really hard um this late winter early spring with Bridget Bar who's a grant writer at Boseies to apply for this boost grant that's offered through um the office of children and family services through New York State. It's extremely competitive um so competitive that we really questioned is it worth our time to apply feeling like our chances were very low of winning. there's very few awarded um and it's a pretty high standard. Well, I'm pleased to report we were one of two awards um in this region. Uh we got an award and Lions
026got an award. Um >> and that's like going up against Monroe County Districts like it's not just, >> you know, little Wayne County. So, it's significant. It's a $1.2 million grant over the course of five years. Um it's meant to build out of time out of school time programming specifically at the junior senior high level. Um so we approached it as building on the work we've done like at the elementary around mini camps. Um building on some work we've done up here with after hours tutoring support for students who need it, some credit recovery work. Um, so we're excited to be able to provide some additional programming for kids and supports through kids for kids through that grant. Um, being able to do enrichment, some youth leadership development, um, some continued like tutoring and credit
027recovery. Um, so super thrilled about that and really proud that we won that one. >> That's great. Nice job, Casey. >> Yeah, she's not here. Hopefully she's watching for the record. >> It's a big deal. Um, moving on. Just a quick hiring update. Um, our teaching positions, um, our probationary positions are filled. We're still trying to, um, fill some new aid openings, a typist opening. So, those are, um, positions we're still trying to fill in before the start of the school year. Um, but I feel good that we're in a spot that we have our probationary positions filled. Um, and we'll be ready to like open school without worrying about wrapping up hiring for those positions. So, um, you know, I'm hopeful that we'll be fully staffed by the time that school opens in terms
028of all our positions, but we're down to the wire, especially for those like aid and typus positions. Um, so hopefully we'll have those filled before we start in September. Um, building off of that, new staff orientation happens next week. Um, so we'll have our new staff members on the 25th and the 26th. Um, this year we're trying to really uh reach out again and have people be able to experience Marian not just as a school district, but as a community. Um, when I've been talking with finalists, I've been talking about how like we want to make Mary and your teaching home. Like we want you to be part of not the district but our community as a whole. Um, so following that vein, we're starting off this year um Stone Hedge Cafe has like graciously
029agreed to host us for our opening for new teacher orientation. So we'll meet there and do our opening there for new staff. Um, it's super nice of them to partner to do this. They're opening specially just for us to do that, which is fabulous. >> Um, in addition, the Marian Museum is going to be giving us a tour. So, um, we'll get a tour of the Marian Museum. Um, Teresa has graciously agreed to do that for our new staff so they can kind of get a feel for like the historical perspective of Marian. Um, and we will still right after that do our traditional Marian bus tour. Nikki leads a fabulous Marian bus tour. So, >> have you ever gone? I went on it. Have you guys gone? >> No, I haven't. >> You're welcome
030to the new hire. >> Oh, yes, of course. >> I would love to participate if you want to. >> You are more than welcome. >> Cool. >> So, the board is more than welcome to join any part of this that you want. Um the second day we really focus on uh specific professional development around our priority areas really a lot of time this year on teacher clarity and then making sure that everybody's up to speed in terms of technology uh in terms of what platforms we utilize how to effectively utilize them with students. So, we're excited to have our new staff here next week, at the end of next week, which seems crazy, but the 28th is our opening day for all staff. Um, so we're excited to have everybody back. It seems impossible that
031it's already time to do that. Um, Michelle has graciously agreed to come in to welcome staff back. We're hopeful that Lydia will also be able to join to pair up with Michelle to do that welcome for staff, but we'll have our traditional welcome with everybody um from district office here in the junior senior high and then the afternoon of the 28th and all day on the 2nd uh staff will be in buildings doing building specific work. So, it seems crazy that summer is already wrapping up and we'll be back at it with everyone, but >> it's true. >> Just packed backpacks ready to go for supply drop off. >> Yes. >> So excited. >> It is super exciting, isn't it? Like all the new school supplies. >> I do have to say though, I felt
032I was so thankful like everyone was talking like July 1, like let's it's time for back to school. What? August. Everyone in Florida's like, "Yeah, they're going back tomorrow." >> Are you kidding? It's 900 degrees. >> Yeah. >> I'm so glad that we don't go back in August. >> Yoink. >> Yes. >> And then the last thing I have in my section is just the approval of the updated code of conduct. So, we had reviewed um the changes that we had made to the code of conduct. They've been up for their 30-day plus um you know public comment period. So, tonight would be the night that we approve of comments. >> Were there any comments made on them from the public? >> No. So, that does anyone want to move approving the new code of
033conduct? >> I will. Thank you. Is there a second? A second. Thank you. All in favor? I opposed. Abstain. Motion passes. Did you have anything that didn't hit the print? Good. >> I'm good. >> Okay. Did you turn, Mr. Walker? >> Okay. Uh the first item uh which happens every August, this is the uh resolution to confirm the tax roles and authorize the tax levy. Um, so it's what was um, voter approved for the tax lobby. And what is included in this resolution just outlines when the tax collection happens and when the penalty kicks in. Um, it's always September through the end of October before it gets turned over to the county for any remainder of collection. Um, does anybody have any questions? When will people receive theirs? >> Right. The bills usually go out
034either the day before. Well, September 1st is Labor Day. So, it'll probably go out at Friday, August 30th, 29th. >> All right. So, if at the end of the first week, I still don't have mine because it seems like I have to reach out to him. Like, I'm pretty sure be paying something. >> If you don't have it by the end of the first week, definitely reach out. >> Okay. And I normally do that to myself. Like, oh yeah, in two days you will. >> I should definitely have a >> Does anyone have any questions on Warner Levy? Can we get a motion to approve? >> I'll move it. >> Thank you. Second. >> I'll second. >> Thank you. All in favor? >> I opposed. Abstained. Motion passes. >> Okay. The second one has a
035few layers to it. So that's an onion. >> So back in June, the board approved a resolution to authorize the annual utilization uh and funding of reserves. Um so this this is an amendment to that and the reason why this is where the layers come in. So the overall amount doesn't change, but what's going to change is how much goes into each reserve. Just two different reserves. And the reason why is if you recall back in April of last year when the board approved the budget at that time we did not know what our state aid was going to be. So we assumed that we were going to lose half of it which was over $600,000. Um and then we also appropriated reserves to help make up that difference. Well, as we all know, we
036got the full funding. We didn't need to appropriate those reserves as a result. So we're not going to use those reserves. Um so as a result because of that the TRS reserve which we were going to use which we're not going to use was already maximum funded. So in order to stay within the statutory limits we have to adjust the allocation. So the adjustment is instead of um putting $120,000 into the TRS reserve, we're just going to increase um by 20,000 to the bus reserve. So that that's what the amendment is. Does anybody have any questions on that? >> No. >> Can we get someone to move it, please? >> Thank you. Second. >> I'll second. >> Thank you. All in favor? I >> oppose. Motion passes. There's a lot of phoning going on under
037your section today. >> The third item >> is the is our annual um tax collection agreement that we've had in place for several years with the town of Marian. Um and it's the exact same agreement that was last year just different dates. So we you the town clerk um will collect the taxes for the school district. Um she works with our tax collector which is Kim. um at the school and um we provide the software and then obviously we pay them a fee in order to do that. >> Any questions? We get a motion to approve. >> Fantastic. Can we get a second? >> A second. >> Thank you. All in favor? >> I opposed. Abstained. Motion passes. >> Okay. Uh the fourth item is unodudited financial report. So uh we have matched it up
038very closely with our school treasurer which is over at CBO. Um so if the key component to look at here is if you look at the um the expenditure report at the bottom you'll see that it's been updated. So you can see that $466,222 in red, that's what was allocated uh to reduce the tax levy for 2526. And then we went ahead and um funded the reserves based on our maximum limit that was authorized by the board back in June. Um, and by doing that, you'll notice at the very bottom, we're legally allowed to have 4% unassigned fund balance, which for this upcoming year is $941,634. So, the number in gray, this is again, this is unaudited. This will be within hopefully 10 $20,000. Um, that number is lower than the 941, which is what
039it needs to be. So, if that number were higher, then we obviously need to make adjustments, but we're in good shape. So, we got about roughly $100,000 leeway, which means we won't max out the reserves that was authorized, it will probably about $100,000 less. That makes sense. So every year when we do the authorization and utilization for the funding of the reserves in early June, the audit isn't actually completed till September. So we don't know the final numbers until then. So we're doing an estimate. Usually we obviously guesstimate high to make sure that we're covered. So right now there's about a $100,000 difference buffer between what we'll actually fund versus what was authorized is what that number is showing. So, we haven't exceeded it. We're We're good. >> Yes. >> It's positive. It's positive. >>
040All right. Can we get a motion to approve the unodudited financial report? >> Thank you. Second. >> Second. >> Thank you. All in favor? >> I opposed. Motion passes. And the last item is back in July, we had the annual hearing for the um comprehensive safety plan as well as the uh student code of conduct. And during that 30-day period, I have not received any comments or feedback. Um so that's where we're at now. We're at the point of the board approving it. >> All right. We would like to move it. Thank you. Second. >> Thank you. >> All in favor? >> I opposed. Abstain. Motion passes. >> Anything else you would like to discuss? Are you about done? >> There are other items I could discuss, but I'll >> floor is yours if you
041wanted. >> No, other The only thing I will say is that, you know, the entire summer staff is working very hard to make sure that we're ready to go on opening day. Um there's always a few last minute things that need to be taken care of. Um we did get the half of the upper floor at the elementary. The flooring was redone. The other half due to scheduling is not going to be done until during the school year over a break. Um there's the pavilion is supposed to be get started tomorrow at the elementary school. Um the front of the school this week will be mulching the front of the school and also contacting a cleaning company to try to clean up the white area below the windows that look really dirty and dingy where
042the bushes used to be. >> Um they've been watering the soccer field to make sure that the soccer field is green and not brown and crusty. So a lot of things have been going on in terms of the facilities and grounds people to make sure that we're ready. So kudos to them. Okay, next up is policy review. Anyone have any questions on the separate reading of the internet enabled devices during school day? Okay. Can we I was going to do this. Can we get a motion to approve, please? >> I'll move it. >> Second. >> Thank you. All in favor? >> Opposed? >> Abstained. Motion. >> You got yourself a policy. >> Consent agenda items. Did anyone have any question on the consent agenda items? Could could you just explain to me the dean of
043students what that role is? >> Um so the dean of students role we created uh after we eliminated the assistant principal position. So as a way to have some additional building level support in both buildings. Um, it's designed to be about 90 minutes a day um for a someone who's currently on our teaching staff to be able to assist the building principal. Often it's around things um related to like student discipline, student management, some procedural things in each building. So that's a position that we have found is very well utilized in both buildings. Um >> and a nice way to help people develop like some leadership experience. >> Um this is great. >> And then the CSEA positions for CIC. >> Um so are those teacher assistant positions? >> Yes. So yeah, that's something like
044that's an idea that was brought to us by CSCA like really wanting some uh representation and membership in our building planning process and feeling like if uh teacher assistants well CSA members and we've decided teacher assistants had representation at the table um that that's a voice that we were missing number one and then number two um it provides us an opportunity for them to be able to go back out and connect with CSE and membership and kind of make that link between building plans and goal setting and um you know what happens for their membership and how we all work together towards the building goals and the district goals. >> So those two were both on the agenda set that we did earlier.
