So, we look forward to working with her for next year and having her be the student voice at our board meetings every meeting. Next item on here is our year end of year board evaluation. Um what we have decided to do this year is we have kind of gathered our information together. We will use that next year which is just after July 1st um to create the board goals. Um, we felt it was important to gather information as far
011as how we felt we did from our two outgoing board members, but to utilize that information with our two incoming board members to create the goals instead of us five creating the goals for people who aren't even involved in the process. So, that is the way that's going to work. Does any other board members have anything to report on? No. Okay. Do you have anything to report on for your last meeting here? Um, I just want to say I don't think I've been here since LMBs happened and I don't know if you guys know but we did very good at LMBs, multiple awards and we won overall production of a musical. So that was really nice. Um, we had Cabaret night this past Friday and it went amazing, super fun night. Um, let's see. We
012had a spirit week last week and that went very well. I don't know who all participated, but I did. I had fun participating. So, that's all that matters really. Um, and then for senior things, we had a senior walk last Friday up here and then we had senior events day yesterday. Um, and then we did a senior sunrise. We went down and um walked the elementary school, had breakfast for the kindergarters. We hijacked the kindergarten or some sort of PE class with the parachute parachute. That was fun. Um and then we went to the park, Queens Park, and then we had wrapping it all up. Those highly educational things that you're doing that last week. I know. of relationship. Thank you. Thank you. Move on to superintendent report. All right. I only have one item
013tonight and just I wanted to give the board a quick update. We've been offering the input sessions on both the code of conduct and the new cell phone uh regulations in New York State. So, um, we have another opportunity for parents and students tomorrow evening to give input, but um, I thought I'd share a quick summary of the input that we've gotten so far on both topics. So, um, around code of conduct, there's been some discussion specifically um, in comparing our code of conduct to some other codes of conduct from other districts. Um, people have liked the pieces in other codes of conduct where they're more specific about types and levels of infraction. Um, so what a low-level behavior might be compared to something that's considered a highle behavior. um being more specific about those
014types of infractions and also more specific in terms of um possible consequences under each type of infraction. Um also some feedback around um looking to be more specific about how things might look different depending on student age. So, um, the things that might be considered suspension worthy at K2 might look different than things that are suspension worthy at 912. Um, so being more intentional around, uh, the differences maybe between what discipline might look like within the two buildings. Uh for cell phone um we've gotten the most input from students uh which we anticipated but that's like great and I think kids have been really thoughtful about the feedback they've given us. Um so one knowing that they won't be able to access cell phones during the school day. Uh, one of their first requests was
015making sure that students know how they can then contact their parents if they needed to. Um, so we talked through things like making a phone call from the main office, making a phone call from the nurse's office, and students gave us feedback around that that if we're going to do that, they would appreciate it if we could build in some additional privacy for them for needing to make a phone call because both of those locations, the phones are, you know, central for p, you know, for obvious reasons, but students feeling like they would like some privacy if they're going to need to make a call out home. Um, also thinking about having access, and we heard this from multiple students, to music that lots of students utilize their cell phones, um, to maybe play music
016while they're doing work in study hall. Um, so if they're not going to have their phones, what's a way that they could access music through their Chromebooks? Currently, that's something that's very limited for students. Um, so is there a way we can open up access to music for students through their Chromebooks? Um, and then a couple of kids just talking about efficiency that if they're going to need to drop off and pick up their cell phones beginning of day, end of day, wanting it to be an efficient process, not having to stand in line for a long time to be able to do that. So just an ask to make sure that it's efficient and secure that students would know that when they drop off their phone, nobody else is going to touch it and
017when they come to pick it up, it's going to be there and they're going to be able to get it go. So just a quick update on the feedback we've gotten so far. When you talked about having a phone available for the kids, could we put the pay phone back? We have a note for it in the hallway. I know actually a staff member suggested that as a return to the pay phone. Got the job done. It's private. No one else is in the hall generally when you're That's all I have so far. Okay, we'll move on to school business administrator report. Okay, just a quick update with our food service. as you know that um we'll no longer be sharing with Williamson for the food service director. Uh we do just did receive confirmation
018that we'll have a shared food service director through Boseis. Uh we'll be sharing 50/50 with Red Jacket and that person will actually be starting June 25th. Um they'll be in the district the last four days of the school year to help with the transition into the next school year. Okay, good news. Okay, move on to policy review. Any board members have any questions or comments on the second reading of policies 5684, 5761, 7351, 7513, 7521? No. Can I get a motion to approve them? Can I get a second? Second. All in favor? Opposed? Ain that motion passes on to consent agenda items. Any board members have any questions or comments on the consent agenda items? Not. Can I get a motion to approve them? Can I get a second? Second. All in favor? Opposed? Abstain.
019That motion passes. On to tenure appointments. All right. So uh we are lucky enough to recognize four phenomenal people for tenure this school year. Um what we'll do is we'll have the building principles share about uh the person who we are awarding tenure to. Then we'll ask you to come up get your certificate and we ask you to come do what we call running the gauntlet where you shake hands with the board members. So we will start with Mrs. Hair who will share a little bit about our first tenure appointee. That sounds great. So I am going to share about Jacob Cowles. He's an elementary level general education teacher currently teaching third grade but going to be teaching next fan club's here. Fan club. I didn't write that into the letter but it's true. Um
