001Okay. Item number resolution motion. Any discussion on the consent agenda? All those in favor? Any opposed? Resolution is approved. Chris, what can I just comment that public comments? Is there anyone would like to make public comments? Thank you. Financial report. set of financial reports. There were budget transfers one that's over $10,000 that needs to be resolution approval. Um it is for a piece of equipment that primarily used for the turf field and so we transferred funds but they were all within the building and grounds budget already. So it stayed in building and grounds just transferred to an appropriate budget code to purchase that. And it's safe to say I would think Dian trying to do that now increases that will be coming forward and the money's available this year saved us from having to budget
002it. So that's ready for the resolution. So resolution number 107 2024 moving the current budgetary transfer report as presented by the school business executive motion. Yes. Second. Any more conversation? Those in favor? I opposed. Resolution is approved. That's all I have. Thank you for sending out the uh the number because you' be surprised how people call us. So when you send them out then we can answer those questions. Okay. own business capital project update. Um let's just get this on the uh on the floor resolution 108 2024 moving the following contracts by and between the Sar Lake Central School District and Atlantic Testing Laboratories. It's the storm water prevention plan special construction materials as best monitoring services. Motion please. second discussion. So, so these are straightforward. We we have to monitor our SWIP plan which
003is our storm water pollution prevention plan. Um same thing we need testing as materials engineering is happening with the Turk. They do testing for that and we are doing a lot of clean up this year. So there's asbestous monitoring. Um you've seen this before many times. Usually it's who we use for our monitoring but has retired. So we're using um Atlantic testing instead. They're local all over the place. Any further discussion? Okay. Motion favor I vote. Resolution is approved. business. Can I can I just give an additional update on the capital project? Sure. So, we had originally wanted to start our TUR project uh this week. Um not fully understanding the APA review process. So, we have last Friday we received um a notification of a complete packet being submitted to the APA. They had
004some questions. So they we've been back and forth with them for um about couple months now. Um but the package is complete and now they post um our project out in in a bettermental publication to let people know that it is happening and they can weigh in. Also let all of the homeowners property and also they get 15 days. Hopefully it went to the publication today. is published next Wednesday. Um so the earliest that they could offer us a permit would be after that 15 period nothing that comes up during that period. So we anticipate um that we'll be starting the t we hope by the end of June the last week of school perhaps week which was our original start date so our hope was to be done so that we could um enjoy
005the turf with the beginning of the school year. All of our construction people have been amazingly flexible about our scheduling. So, we anticipate it will be done this summer, but um no guarantees that it will be done for the start of the school year. It'll back to work. Uh the track team is pleased because they've been able to stay on the track to the end of their season, but it may delay the actual use of the fields. Delayed but not. Okay. Thank you. Uh on the new business item A is the first reading of the following policies 2410 245 8636. I know possibly spend a lot of time on this. I know we're in the committee or D want to weigh in on this. So we started with looking at the policy development adoption and
006reviews instead of their job. We want to go back and look at that one. We just updated to match what we're doing. as official student member. Again, we've had them for years and years. We're now required to have a policy. So, really, we built into the policy what we've already done for many years. Um, and artificial intelligence really ties to our computer use instruction and gives some parameters as to appropriate use of artificial intelligence both for the student side and for the staff side. I had a thought that you know it would be wonderful for our students. I don't have much time to review board policies, but you know, certainly the exeicio member of the board like I'd love to, you know, at least look it over and and see anything that's missing, but also
007the AI one. I think I feel like the more different eyes because it is a new policy. I don't know how much it followed like what NISB said, but it did. However, the professional development committee actually it was based somewhat on that but they also looked at other uh examples of AI policies. So the committee itself over there the meeting dates and then sent it to the policy committee. I I I just feel like the more eyes on it I know it's going to be out of date like as soon as it gets adopted you know AI is changing so quickly but just the more eyes the more people who have insight who are affected by all right resolution number 109 2024 improving the discontinu of personal registration for the Santa Cl. Sure. So for
008years and years, if you ever read our columns of language that goes into the newspaper, tucked in there says you may come and personally register at the district on May 5th from 10:00 a.m. to noon. We aren't required to do personal registration. No one has ever taken advantage of it. Um we don't really know what we're doing since we've never done it. and we would like to discontin um but it needs board action to discontinue that so so now I don't they register anybody registered as any other registration registration any other questions favor I opposed resolution is approved reports super tax report I I have no report for this evening for Josh. I have no report for Josh. Suzanne, I have no report for Josh. And here's where it ends. Erica, sorry. This is for
009Diane. So, as Nancy mentioned, letter C uh is very exciting news. We were awarded a grant through the Aderondac Foundation and Mother Cabrini to partner with North Country Community College. It's a twofold project. One, all of our seniors will be eligible, depending on their schedule, to earn seven North Country Community College credits at no cost. This includes an English credit, a math credit, and a 21st century skill credit. So Sam, pay attention. Are you ready? So you never start an email with the word hey. That's the start of the class. I'm going to teach that one, right? So it's to teach students how to become uh professional students and students who are uh career ready how to be professional career entry ready. So seven college credits, no cost, available to all seniors. On the other
010side of that grant is a career readiness program that includes our local community uh businesses and our government to allow our students to work alongside in professional capacity. Some will be paid, some will not be paid, but the grant affords the opportunity uh if you wish to work at the vet office. We can provide you with the scrubs and the closed toed shoes. We can also get you to and from the vets's office running our regular bus transportation. Um, it provides a stipen for our teachers to become ready to provide college material and it also lets our students see themselves as college students. Sometimes we don't always uh think all kids are college ready or they don't see themselves as college ready, but this will make the opportunity for all students to see themselves in
011a college class. So, we are honored to have been selected of one of four of these grants through the foundation and um thrilled to be partners once again with the community college. That's awesome. It's great. Well, I will say very briefly that somebody who does faculty advising at the college level, it is incredibly helpful when students have extra credits and it gives them more flexibility years down the road which is not something I was aware of when I was taking extra classes or getting college credit in high school. It really helps later on nothing to report for Melissa. Ryan, I have nothing to report. Come on, Amy. No way. That better not be next meeting. Mr. Dan, you never give speeches. No comment. Okay, thanks. Nancy, anything? Am I not allowed to speak? is not
012your [Music] third and then the 21st century thing after um policy committee met we have a lot more coming your way code of conduct title N all that fun stuff so there's more coming and you got to attend the science fair last night last night. Um, it was amazing. It's always fun. I spend all my time in youth sports. So, it's really cool to see young kids doing science academic stuff and there was kids there next to the kids and somehow worked. It was great. I'm trying to think, but we had the final DEI since then and we spent a lot of time really just reviewing the code of conduct. So we also did kind of brief analysis of everything we accomplished and that committee accomplished it goals that was good successful last year. Um
013went to the concert at great fact nothing to report Mike uh just that one of our ser students uh who was in my class in building trades uh received a $10,000 scholarship to go to proud of him very I will start off by earlier. I apologize. Okay. I'll start off by saying that I was a part of the four five group to move to Bloomingdale my fourth grade year and then that took over the following year. And I know it might be a little late but I think it was a great experience seeing new people, meeting new people, create new friends here. So, I just think that was just great to be a part of whether it was like beneficial or not. Um, yeah, the spring sports are coming to an end. Playoffs are started
014this week and teams are ending. Um, the junior prom is this week, this weekend. And as well as the after prom party where there was a donation of a car. Yep. Being given away to a student. Is that working? Yep. That was donated. That's an incredible car. Yeah. Wow. How are you guys doing? 2014 CRV. I'll take it. Tomorrow the uh it was a combination of um Joe and Sherry Fischer with uh Evergreen Auto and the Elation. So the only cost for the after prom party uh and the student is the registration and the sales tax. So as soon as Yeah. So you walk in and you get tickets and then you can put your tickets in whenever you want and if you put when you get to come you have to stay. Yeah. You
015got to stay walking. We've done that a lot. How many how many cars do you have here? I think last year and the year before my in years we didn't have cars and that was because we had extra the kids wanted more cash. So the kids last year want to know where the car was. I'm like you got the cash so you can't have the car and the cash probably at least 10 12 years. Tomorrow the eighth graders are visiting us. Um I'll be talking to a couple of the groups just letting them know what they need to expect coming into high school. And the senior activities start um the picnic is the 13th and the walk is the six as well as the spring concert on the 12th. Yeah, pretty exciting. And that is
016everything. I have one more thing too. the um natural resource science program competed in the environ and they won for the region and for the county and now they're going to the state championship on the 28th I believe and with many certain with many I think there's five five very awesome good to hear okay with that I do not think we are in need of an executive session. If you want, let's do it. I just I just wanted to know, you know, are we going with those two options? Are those two options that we're weighing? Is the moving either going to classes or Yes. and and there's the problems we're having is uh I I'm not married to either there uh there are real benefits to either. There are drawbacks to either of those plans.
017Um, and we've received a lot of feedback and I received have received feedback also just people chatting and I haven't really received somebody who had a third or fourth or fifth viable option. So I do think we've had a lot of weigh in at the end of the day those those are the two options that are on the table and it's correct. Yes. anticipate that we probably probably not because I'm coming down to the wire. the the comment that was made I'm sorry I don't remember who I probably read my notes but I don't have my glasses on about the opportunities to say goodbye and the timing is rough the t so I was part of building closure at Katyville and Dan and knowing for a whole year is equally rough like there's no there's
018no magic window but I want to make sure that should that be the decision there is the opportunity is to have some celebratory activities planned whether it's kids coming to and they're I'm coming to and we're going to have some kids leave or the opposite way and I just if I get too late in June I I need to let staff know where they're going because this will adjust it's also kids and staff who might be needing to make some changes. Uh, and the staffing changes aren't significant, but everybody worries, is it them, right? Like until I I can't tell one person without dominoing the whole group. I really feel I need to do that really by the end of the first week in June in order to give everybody some opportunity. So, I'm hoping
019um that if you have something that you would like to share with me, if tonight any questions or concerns or comments um that you would email them to me individually. I would be happy to have your your motion to favor everybody.
