001Thank you for being here. It's nice to see uh full house. We have a nice streak of uh well attended board meetings. Uh so thank you all for coming. Uh at this time we will call the meeting to order and stand for the pledge of allegiance. U as per our tradition, I'd like to invite students to comely pledge. So those of you in the room are still student of the United States of America through the Republic. Uh >> roll call. Mr. Davis, >> Mr. Marks, Mr. Schwer >> present, >> Mrs. Sang >> here. >> Mr. Phillis >> here. Mr. Warolf >> here. At this time, could we get a motion to adopt the regular meeting agenda? So moved. >> Second. >> All in favor? >> I. Any public commentary tonight? >> None this evening. >>
002Very good. With that, we will move into the um public hearing on the re reemployment of a retired employee. Um they come what our protocol on this is. >> So uh the board of education you you want me to go ahead. Okay. Board of Education is following a required process for the potential reemployment of a retired employee. The position was publicly posted in March to ensure awareness and opportunity. This month, the board will hold the public hearing that is occurring right now to share the rationale for the potential reemployment and to invite community input. No decision will be made at this time. The board will then consider all the information and public feedback before taking formal action at its May meeting. Like many districts, we continue to experience challenges in recruiting and retaining qualified bus
003drivers. Debbie Friend is an experienced driver who knows our routes, students, and expectations well, and she has supported the district in a variety of ways beyond her primary role. Her experience and reliability are important considerations as the board evaluates how best to meet our transportation me needs. At this time, is there anyone who would like to speak on this issue? Okay. Hearing none, we will close the public hearing and then again we'll come back in May and vote on the uh re remployment of Debbie friend. >> These meetings are exciting, aren't they? >> Reviving. >> Revding. >> Uh Dr. Stillery, would you please lead us in our correspondence recognition and note? >> I would. Let's start with our monthly lead now video. I could not be more excited to be here tonight. It's the big
004pitch. It is like the Indian Hill Shark Tank. >> Think student dreams, entrepreneurship, and leadership, and really tackling a question about how to make not just the high school experience better, but the community, the district, and the connection within the district. >> Tonight, you'll witness each group share their groundbreaking ideas. They'll be pitching these concepts not only to you the audience but to our esteemed panel of six judges. Big pitch is just an opportunity for students to enter that entrepreneurial mindset to go through design thinking and iteration after iteration and bring an idea to life. >> This is a perfect example where people who have maybe graduated from Indian Hill or now part of the community are working with kids to become part of that next generation of entrepreneurs. It is such a great thing.
005Speak Up teaches public speaking, communication, and presentation skills to kids. It isn't just about public speaking. It's about giving students the chance to stand up, present their ideas, and do it with confidence. I believe speak up should be offered to the whole district. Over the eight weeks, I was able to speak in front of my peers. Now, I'm most nervous to speak in front of big crowds like this. Introducing IH Bluns, a studentrun smoothie stand built for Indian Hill by Indian Hill. So together, let's blend health and success at Indian Hill. >> You killed the pitch. That was fantastic. >> Great job. This was wonderful and very inspiring. >> It truly is a chance for our students to think big, apply their project-based learning. Tonight isn't possible without all the amazing partners that we have,
006including the Indianville Foundation. It is through their tremendous work and time given to our students that make this event possible. >> 63% of families struggle to find reliable, trustworthy help. Whether that's with things like babysitting, yard work, pet care, or tutoring. Assist is designed for Indian Hill High School students ages 13 to 19 seeking flexible work opportunities. >> Our pitch is called the Braves Pollinator Garden. Pollinator gardens can attract many different interesting species as well as generating lots of curiosity. The impacts of this pollinator garden will not only be felt by the students, faculty, and community members using it, but will also impact the hundreds of species of insects like the monarch butterfly that depend on native plants. When they stand up and start to pitch their ideas to us, it's hard for me to
007remember that they're just in high school. the opportunity to plan their pitch to make a difference within our school community to be so poised and articulate. It is like we're seeing the students in their future lives. Now we've arrived to the most challenging part of the evening, the big decision. >> This year there will be two winners. The first speak up and the second assist. >> We put so much work into this and I'm so proud of our kids and this is just amazing opportunity. We can't wait to expand public speaking throughout the nation. This is awesome. I'm just so proud of us and we are so excited to bring a Sicily to the app store and not only start in our community, but be able to bring it to others and just make a
008big community impact. This is probably the most awarding experience I had on high school. Thank you so much. Before we move on to the next item, I just would be remiss if I didn't say my appreciation to Jeff Damado, Lauren Richardson, Danielle Lince Crying, and Andy Gruber for their work on the big pitch. It really was a phenomenal night. So, it couldn't have happened without all of them. So, thank you. Moving on, we would like to congratulate Intino High School senior Nathan Shamid who recently traveled to Washington DC where he joined advocates from across the country to raise awareness and support for individuals living with Tourett syndrome and tick disorders during the Tourett Association of America's annual advocacy day on Capitol Hill. Additionally, the evening before advocacy day, Shamid recogni was recognized with the national
009transformation teal fundraiser award from the Tourett Association of America for his leadership and dedication to advancing awareness and support for the Tourett and tick disorder community. On top of that, on come on over Nathan. On top of that, he has been instrumental in speaking to our entire staff um so that we as educators can be better. Do you want to stand in front of that mic over there and what like just do you want to share a thought about what this has meant to you? >> For me, I felt like I just enjoyed making a real impact in communities and then seeing how others will use the knowledge and the funding to ultimately improve the lives of those with Tourett syndrome. >> Congratulations. Really proud of you. Thank you. Moving on, we celebrate the eight
010Indian Hill High School student artists who advanced a total of 17 artworks to the Ohio Governor's Youth Art Exhibition, becoming the 2026 regional and state award winners. The Ohio Governor's Youth Art Exhibition recognizes outstanding artistic achievement among high school students across the state. Regional award winners include Sylvia Gumla, Janisha Rana, Olivia Zhao, Caroline Winks, Claret Yang, Jimny Guu, Iris Zu, and Rivy Green. State award winners include Caroline Winks, Claret Yang, Olivia Zo with two different works and Jimmy Goo. This can't be stated enough. It is our absolute best showing in the history of submitting our artwork. Um will those students who have been involved in that please stand up. I just have to show this really quick. This is one of the pieces of art that um I saw and I um the the original
011is is even better than this because it's all textured. But I loved it so much I asked for a copy and bought it so that I can keep it for the very rest of my life. Um, this is just an example of like this the talent that we're talking about. Congratulations. We're so proud of you. We are proud to announce the longtime music ed educator Chris Rochin has been selected as a recipient of the Hamilton County Educational Service C Center's Celebration of Excellence Award to be presented during the week of April 20th. Rochin, who has dedicated 34 years to teaching, including 31 at Indian Hill, has left an enduring legacy on generations of students in the district's renowned band program. Over the course of his distinguished career, he has conducted more than 650 performances, inspiring
012excellence both in and beyond the classroom. Congratulations to Mr. Roaching. This is the second time this year that we've had the honor of celebrating students who have decided to continue their academic and athletic career at the collegiic level. For this month, we were able to include the following students. L Luke Bergstrom rowing at Bates College. Jackson Fry football at Thomas Moore University. Libby Holmes swimming at Roland's College. Ansley Johnson soccer at St. Mary's. And Drew Roer football at John Carroll University. However, that doesn't include the first five that we had. If you are a student athlete, can you please everybody come and stand up here? Come on. We're going to get your picture. Your mom and dad are going to take your picture, too. And then Mr. Phelps, can you come up? So, we also
013have Jackson Fry playing football, Thomas Moore, and Sophia Thompson will play tennis at Cornell. We have 11 commits so far this year, plus uh three now, 2027 commits. Uh as we say during our signing day uh each opportunity we have to celebrate our student athletes only 7% of high school uh student athletes move on to play at the collegiate level and we typically range from uh high level academic division three to division one to everything in between. and we're just super excited for this group of of student athletes to continue the tradition of excellence in athletics and we are super excited to see what they will do on in the next level and uh was Jimmy Leel mentioned earlier I because he was in the first uh University of Chicago. So did we get everybody
014big round of applause for our student athletes? Can we get a picture of them real? >> That we would love that. >> Will you guys come up here? Um >> I mean to the parents I remember when they were like little kids in third grade like little to little little All right, congratulations. We can't wait to see your jerseys hanging up. We celebrate the latest offering of the Indian Hill Arts Conservatory, a transformational concert tour through Europe for Indian Hill High School student musicians from March 26 to April 3rd. 44 student musicians from the high school band and orchestra programs embarked on a remarkable 10-day performance and cultural immersion tour across Munich, Salsburg, Vienna, and Prague, experiencing the firsthand the rich and musical traditions that have shaped the Western canon. Super appreciative of the teachers
015who helped get them ready. And then as we speak, choir leaves tomorrow morning, I think like at 3:30 a.m. or something to to go to California for their performances. and we'll be working with professors on the West Coast. Excited for that. Uh we finally have our rangers here. Uh we'd like to invite you up front and really we just want to start by acknowledging what incredible partners that we have in our rangers. And if we didn't know it before, we certainly saw it when we had the alleged bomb threat come through. Um, and it was firsthand everything that they said that they would be able to do. They made it faster to the high school entrance than I could leaving my office and running to the front of the high school. That's how fast they
016were able to do it. And in between all of that, they were calm, cool, collected, and in charge. And there isn't a day that goes by that I'm not thankful for Indian Hill Rangers. So, can we start with a round of applause? Uh just just would like to echo that before we turn the mic over to you all, Chief. Um you know, I I have the ability to say this as both a school board member, uh district resident, and most importantly a district parent of two little kids. Um knowing you guys are down the street literally and figuratively means the world to us. Um the amount of planning that you all do, the amount of training you all do to protect our students is second to none. Um we, you know, it's it's a scary
017world and we're asked all the time about security protocols and what do we do? What do we do? Are we doing this? Are we doing that? And the first answer I always give is well the rangers are down the street so you know worry. Um we know the work that goes into it. We know the commitment you all make to our students, to the district, u to the whole community really. And um I was joking with chief earlier like any good parent and schoolboard member when we found out at the bomb threat I was on a golf course um with my father in Florida so I would have to eat here. Um but my first you know comfort was knowing well they're going to be on top and it really put my mind at ease
018and I know it um seeing your guys cars in the parking lot seeing you present really makes makes a big difference. Um so can't thank you enough on behalf of the school on behalf of myself and my kids. Uh just appreciate everything you all do. I know the the bomb threat was scary. Um present an opportunity to learn and improve like most things in life do. I know we're all working at that, but uh really just wanted to to express our gratitude, my gratitude, personal gratitude for everything you all do for us. >> Thank you very much. Um I'll make it quick. First of all, I'd like you I'm pleased that you didn't make us go first. I really enjoyed watching all you be recognized. It was amazing. Um, but we all knew that. I
019mean, I've been here 27 years. I've been a policeman for 37. And um, I was the school liaison like Ryan is now back in the day when I was a patrolman. And I realized then what a special place this was to go to school. Whether you lived in the village or not, you were treated with uh, respect and you had an opportunity to uh, excel in everything you wanted. And I feel like that the relationship we now have, we've always had, but it's just been bolstered through officer Kamardo, his relationships with all the staff and students certainly has been a blessing for us. Uh with regard to the bomb threat, it went as well as it could. Uh we learned, school learned, we met two days later and uh talked about it. How can we
020improve? That's the most important part is what can we do to make ourselves better? Uh believe it or not, the R everybody makes fun. Oh, you're the Rangers. When we go to court for a case, inevitably another police officer will say, "Oh, how'd you get down here? Did you even find your way?" And I always say, "Well, my driver brought me." Uh, so we have benefits of being police officers here, but the nice part is we were all police officers in a place that wasn't so nice. Um, we learned how things can go bad quickly. We train for that. Uh luckily we have the resources here in the village that we have everything we need to respond to something here. Um and like I we talked earlier with Dr. Stewart. Um it's it's going to
021be hit or it's going to be who's available, how fast can we get here. Uh there are certain things we do that are so minute in the way we train that are specifically geared towards the schools. I won't share them ever, but just know that that's what we talk about a lot of the time is what what can we do a little bit better. Um, and you know, I think we all agree we learned something that, you know, at our debriefing and it it's still talked about to this. And I I if you didn't get a chance to read the uh Indian Hill Bulletin, the one that just came out in March, the end of March, there's an article kind of giving you our feel and I gave copies here. Just get online and read
022it. You'll kind of see where we were coming from that day and uh what we took out of it. Um well, >> I just want to echo. So, Ryan Kamardo, school leaison. Uh, that day was hectic. When I got there first, I saw Jim, Danielle, you came running over, but there was there was no egos, right? Titles kind of went out the window. You came to me, what do you need? Here's what I need. We learned from it. We debriefed after it. So, I think it was very informative for all of us. Um, this year, this has been a unique school year for us. I joke that Danielle, Whitney, Andy, and I are best friends now. Uh, they have my cell phone number. We keep an open line of communication to the point my wife
023knows them without really knowing them. Uh they know they can always call me. We have a great relationship with our schools. Um I really enjoyed it. But credit to your staff members. Again, there was no egos that day. They were so calm in keeping their staff calm, keeping students calm. Allowed us to do our job very easily. Um we learned from it. We'll do better next time. I just want to thank your staff. >> Thank you. >> Does anybody have any questions? You you won't Here's We're also kind of like the umpire. We shouldn't really be seen unless we're needed, right? So that's uh if you have a question, feel free to reach out to us at the station or if there's something anybody wants to ask now. If not, we'll get out of your
024hair and let you continue. I appreciate just I mean the striking point you guys speak is is how much behind the scenes work is going and it's ongoing. Like the idea that we sit down and talk about security once a year, it's it's non-stop between Jim and your all's team and um you know threats change, things change and it's we know you guys are always on top of it. I also want to make something that public that may not be. Um, Chief Trestle has been very very uh intricately involved with the Hamilton County Police Association. He's also served on the executive board for the Hamilton County Chiefs of Police. Uh, he is very very wellworked throughout the tri-state area and using those professional connections, is constantly um striving to improve what the department does as
025well as learning best practices and exchanging those. So he is regularly attending those those meetings, those collaborations. So it's professionally while he speaks well of course to the community and here uh his scope and his continuing professional development go well beyond that. So thank you. >> Thanks Rob. Appreciate that. >> All right. Thanks for having us very much. >> And I'd like to invite Mr. Andy Gubber to come on up. He's going to share some information about some changes taking place at high school. Wow. And I was just going to give them a compliment. I mean, unreal. Unreal. I mean, no worries. >> What's it say when the principal stands up and all the kids piece? >> It means they all have practice. They're all going to practice >> already. You know, I'll do I'll
026do a good job celebrating. What a night to be here, to be honest. I mean, celebration after celebration of high schoolers. I was going to acknowledge them, but now we're going to move fast forward to those of you who are still here. But >> um today I have the honor to share an update of a project that we've been working on. Uh Danielle and I have been collaborating with our teachers, our students, our community members, um and our partners to put together what I think is going to be the foundation for the next, you know, potential 15, 20, 30 plus years for Indian High School. A lot of great things are happening at the high school. uh you know just last year we opened the entrepreneur center. The more you know, one thing we know
027about Indian Hill High School, oops, there we go. Is we have tons of choice and personalization and what we offer students. 31 varsity sports, over 50 clubs and activities, endless course opportunities, um, and the arts, right? I can't think of anything else. Although sometimes we're challenged with new things that are presented, uh, with trying to personalize the student experience. How do you do it all? How do you maintain a high academic rigor experience for our students preparing them for the next step? Um, and offer all of these things. Uh, we we currently run a very traditional seven bell then a block schedule. Uh, very structured. Students are told where they need to be, when they need to be there. Uh, we think we can do things differently. We think we can open uh, some more
028freedom for our students and we want to do this with this change. So, why are we making a change to our overall building structure? Student choice and personalization. Number one, uh we had a unique opportunity Dr. Stewart invited at an early uh district leadership team meeting uh this year. We invited young alumni to come back from colleges to talk about how prepared were they uh when they went off to university to study academically. They felt beyond prepared. One thing that they, you know, constantly said is how do we how how could we do better at preparing them for what happens in between class when all of a sudden you're not, you know, you're not scheduled. Every moment of your day isn't scheduled. We have to figure that part out. What do you do? How do
029you manage your time? How do you uh prioritize? We want to prepare for stu students for life beyond Drake Road. Uh student wellness, sense of belonging. We know the number one issue we deal with when students are starting their year. When they get that schedule, the first thing they ask their counselors is how do how can I switch my lunch? How can I get my schedule changed so I can finally get some time to be with my peers? Um we think it's high school. We think there's so many opportunities for kids just to hang out. currently there's there's truly not. Um it's kind of all scheduled in. Um so this sense of belonging piece, we do surveys among our students. The number one need of what they say they want is a sense of belonging.
030We think this uh schedule will do that. Uh expanded collaboration between staff and students. Right now we have a once a week what we call uh uh uh flex period uh where students can have the opportunity to connect with their teachers for academic support. all of these choices, opportunities that we currently do, we pull from this time. So, how can we secure academic support? So, if I wanted if I want to know that I need to uh connect uh with Melissa Burgess who isn't here this evening, but um you know, if I wanted to connect with Melissa, you know, Miss Burgess for Latin, how can I ensure that I have time set in my day on top of all the other things I want to do? This plan will do that. Uh targeted whole building
031instruction on our pillars, pride, integrity, leadership, respect, service. We say it, we've just put it all over our cafeteria in big pot. Where are we investing time to actually make that a regular occurrence? This plan handles that competition from local private schools. This structure is similar to some of our biggest competitors. Just got some latest updates on numbers. We have 92% as of right now, 92% retention of current eighth graders for next year. Last year we had and I I don't have historical but I have last year's my first year in this role. We had 46 students last year attend one of our private competitors. As of today it is eight. Um we've made some changes in terms of the enrollment process. We've also heard from families how this plan is making them excited to
032stay a brave. So all of this is what we're going to be showing you. So what? Oh, there we go. We have uh we have a seven bell period. We have block that's going to maintain. You're going to see that in um what we offer three days on a typical 5-day week. We offer three for some reason that image is not showing up correctly. We offer three regular seven periods and then we offer a block A and a block B. What you're going to see is this MP lunchtime. We're going to just simplify it to MP time, multi-purpose time. It is lunch. It is time for ECE programming. It is time for the counselors to meet with all their students. Clubs and activities can meet. Then academic support, a writing center within our English department,
033math tutors within our math department, wellness opportunities. The gym will be available. Students can shoot hoops, walk the track, things like that. All of these opportunities are going to be available during this MP lunchtime where the entire building will be together. It'll be open. It will be an open campus opportunity where all students will have this break together um to make this oops again with this intention of why do this time management prioritization decision-m self- advocacy leadership MP time's going to do that. Where are all these kids going to end up? I'm gonna get better at this. Where where are the locations? Cafeteria of course is going to be a key spot for us. the gymnasium. We utilized the top of the um the balcony area during COVID. We're going to bring that back as
034another landing spot for our students. We're going to have one side of the bleachers open as a spot for students to be. Um the media center, we're looking to expand uh how that is set up. So, if students want more of a structured study, eat my lunch uh with peers um during this time, that will be available. We um uh have a we have additional furniture coming to our neighborhoods um where that will be a landing spot uh during this time. Obviously, when the the weather is nice, our courtyards are a lovely spot and our athletic foyers and also u so the area by the athletic office is going to be additional seating for students to land. On top of this, if let's say the counselors are holding an all class meeting for like sophomores
035to talk college 101, they may have a required meeting with them for half of the lunch period and that might be happening in the auditorium. We'll be checking kids in. We have digital IDs now that we put in place this year. Kids are going to be all over the place. Clubs may be happening in classroom. We're going to try to make this place as active and you utilizing all our our our um locations in a more efficient manner so that kids are spread out. They're getting a chance to interact, be engaged in all the things that they fill their resume with. Um to also uh to help with the effectiveness of this plan, we're going to increase sort of how the food service locations occur. So, right now we have the main kitchen which everyone
036is familiar with. That will run typical uh lunch service. We're also going to expand. We've been partnering with Aramark. We're going to have the athletic concession stand. It's going to be kind of like a grabandgo style, you know, pre-made wraps, drinks, you know, fruit, yogurts, um things like that. Also, we're going to be having an all day ca cafe put in this corner. It's going to be open from 7:30 to 2:30, and I'll talk a little bit more about that. Um students will have the opportunity to consume uh food throughout the day. Uh many of our students start the day well before I even get here at 6:30 because of lifting and whatnot. So the students who are hungry maybe at second period to start diving into their meals, that could be something they could
037take advantage of. Um so again, locations is something we're we're thinking about. All of these things will be things that can happen during the MP time. Um, another major change we're thinking that we're putting into effect is changing from a traditional study hall model to what we're calling open study. So, last year, I don't know if you remember when we gave our presentation of dreaming up the media center. One of the things students kept coming back to is this idea of a coffee shop, right? Um, they want a spot where they can have more flexibility. We know when you're preparing for life beyond um, Indian Hill, when you're, you know, when you have that downtime, how are you going to utilize it? you're not going to be si college isn't going to send you to
038a certain classroom to just work. So, we're going to expand um to this idea where you can be in the cafeteria media center or a traditional study hall room if that's what you prefer. Um, but if you want that Starbucks Panera like environment where you can talk a little bit, you can grab a tea, a coffee, a Gatorade with a muffin or a breakfast sandwich, um, that's going to be available at that all day cafe and something you can take advantage of if you have an open study which would now be called study hall. Um, if you want a library-like setting where the expectation is either near silence or as close to it as possible, you're going to take advantage of the media center during that time. You're going to have freedom to choose where
039you're going to go. The idea eventually potentially to open up neighborhoods as well. We're going to start small, work to expand, and again, you're like, you know what? I don't know if this plan's going to work for my kid. Maybe I have a freshman coming in. I want them to ease theirelves, you know, ease into it. Again, we're going to have that traditional study hall space and maybe through a collaboration family, counselor, administrative team. Uh how can we work your child to have the open study ability? But that is going to be something that's going to be a partnership. So, um as Danielle when she created this slide, it's it's not necessarily free time, it's purposeful time. You deciding how you're going to best utilize your time. What's the space? What's the environment uh that
040you need to make this uh the most effective plan for you? future considerations that we have for this um the home of the brave. We have one of the best backyards in the nation. How can we expand this space to be utilized during that 60 minutes, that 80 minutes? Um the idea on a beautiful day like today that students could walk the track, throw a frisbee on the field, um eat at the picnic tables, uh at the pavilion, why not? Again, we're not there starting August. We got a lot of routines and procedures and norms to figure out with students to get them used to it come August 13th. Um but what if what if how can we get there? Also um as soon as this idea came to the students, first things you know
041rising seniors were asking is what about off-campus privilege? Um are we there yet? No. >> This is Rob. >> Are we there yet? No. Is it something I had when I was in high school? Sure. Um but does that mean we're ready for it right away? No. Is it something we'll ever be ready? Who knows? But something to consider down the road. Lots of exciting things. Honestly, this plan, I just am lucky enough to be the one to talk about it. Wouldn't be possible without the partnership of Danielle Lince, um, who I know we're going to be celebrating a little bit in a little bit. Uh, Brian Phelps, Amy Clark, Latif Johnson, all the building leadership team, but also these three partners. Aramark, when I went to Adam Loop and I said, Adam, here's the
042dream. We have 650 kids. I need to know that on the first day of school, I'm not going to get a hundred voicemails saying, "My child couldn't eat lunch. Is this possible?" I I for the record, I know they'll be at least 10, right? Someone's not going to figure out how to get there. We're going to figure out. It's going to be all hands on deck. Um maybe you just got to wait 15 minutes and then eat the second. You know, there's ways to adjust, right? Adam Loop was all in from the get-go and Aramark has been partnering with us on a regular basis um talking about planning and being really innovative in this. We have a lot of creative ideas. I don't think at this point um not enough to, you know, share out
043yet, but hopefully some things down the road that we can um share that are innovative to open up food possibilities even further than what we're already trying to do. None of this would be possible without the constant collaboration with EPO. Uh when I onboarded as the high school principal last or two springs ago, I guess um it all started in my mind through one-on-one conversations with the staff. Did any of them say, "We need a new schedule. We need a but we need to tear this apart." No, not one person said that. What they said is, "We have so many opportunities. We have so many things our students can do. We want them to do all these things. We also want them to be in our class. We want them to not always be gone
044all the time. So, h how do how do we do this? We can't make it work with what we got. So, we had to start dreaming. Um so, the EPO has been wonderful partners. We've had a committee um with a large team. This this committee is handing the work over to our high school building leadership team, which will take take it from here. And then Scarlet and Gray, as you can imagine, another big thing on people's minds is this building is going to have trash everywhere. Some of you might be thinking it right now. Believe me, I've seen faces and I pres I presented this multiple times and I've seen all the faces. Um, we are we are working with them to adjust the plan to make it work. We're also making sure that students
045understand the norms and expectations of what it's going to take. Um, with with these changes, with these freedoms and this um autonomy, we they're gonna have to earn some things, right? So, we we will be holding them accountable. We have uh put in a really strong plan for supervision. Um a very thorough detailed thing that I can share with you at another time, but I'll save you for this evening. But overall, none of this would be possible again without these partners. They are truly if any if any of the three said it's a no-go, wouldn't work, I wouldn't be here tonight. All three at this point are ready to give this a try and we're really excited about it. So that is what I have for you today about what's coming down the pike for
046the high school. >> Um that's cool. Thank you for the pres that preview, but I hadn't seen that yet. That sounds like a lot of um I really like the student and particularly the alumni input on that. I know we're going to talk about some alumni stuff later. Um, but that's uh that's an important part of this and I think getting them ready for the college um experience is is good because you're right, you're not told, you know, you got three free hours between classes, right? Go do something or sit there and play, you know, Xbox. Um the the idea of that hour period is that like when like if Jeff has something with the entrepreneurship center, would that event then be held during that hour? >> Yeah, for sure. So right now the EC
047the currently how our lunch is set up is we have A, B, and C lunch. So, if we invite a partner to come in, they're giving up an hour and a half, almost two hours of time to give a presentation three different times. This allows, you know, Jeff and Lauren to say, "Hey, we have partners from PNG coming in this day. It, you know, it's going to be in the multi-purpose room. We're going to open up different spaces. This is where it's going to be. Bring your lunch. We're going to check you in." >> But the flip side, too, the kids won't be out of class. They'll be able to >> Yeah. No, for sure. Listen to somebody talk about, >> right? So, there's going to be some mandatory things. So if the C so
048our counseling program it pulls they go into like social studies classrooms they'll go into science classrooms to deliver some of the material they do this won't be necessary anymore and maybe hey junior class you have a mandatory meeting with your counselor in a set room or maybe the auditorium they go again accountability where they are we instituted a um implemented a student ID program um we have staff members all it takes is our iPhones to scan and we know who's checked in what time they've checked in um because we of of course know that you know it could be really advantageous to students to try to get away from you know mandatory meetings when the idea of being at their club meeting may also happen. What's going to happen is there's a lot going on.
049I'm not going to guarantee that students aren't going to have conflicting events. That's life. That's figuring out what's your what are you going to prioritize. Maybe you can't make art club this week, but you're going to make sure you're there next week. You know, one thing you said too about the the wellness of that when we were meeting with the students talking about the superintendent profile and the characteristics we they wanted to see, one of the prevailing themes that kind of just came out organically was a sense of being overwhelmed and stretched really thin. We've got a lot of really high achieving kids and one I wasn't even talking about yet. I just like I don't see my friends much during the day and I wanted to go to their event tonight, but I had
050an event or I had this to study for. And I think having that hour in the day to sort of pump the brakes for a few minutes and and catch up and just be a kid for a few minutes um is great. >> Yeah, for sure. >> So I have I have just few I think you answered most of my questions while you're presenting. Uh so for this all day cafe, one thing is the charges. Is it how how are those going to be managed? Is it >> Yeah, just like lunch. It'll run through just like the lunch system. So the monitoring, all of those things that parents currently have available to them, they will have during the day. So it could be one of those things. If you don't have a limit set for
051your family or your children, might be something you want to talk about, right? Because of course you don't want them racking up, you know, surprise charges too much. So the second uh question is the purposeful time especially I think once they have been in that building it's easy for them to you know understand the culture and work through but when you have these freshman's coming in how are you going to help them kind of navigate through do we have you know the senior class helping them like mentorship during first how will that >> yeah it's been a tiered plan so we Danielle and I have had the opportunity uh to go and already talk to rising eighth graders. Again, some of these families who I've heard from have shared that some of the excitement of
052why their student is staying uh brave is is hearing about it. So, we've been very proactive in sharing some of those pieces of what it's going to take. Uh we offer um we offer um bridges. There it is. Thank you. uh bridges, which is our uh student orientation for freshmen. That'll be part of it. I imagine um our BLT hasn't fully implemented yet, but I imagine our first day of school is going to look a little different where we will probably start in flex um where you're going to have planned understanding and instruction for the entire building because what will be unique this year is that it'll be new for everybody, >> right? Obviously, upper classmen have a better sense of where things are. um our campus isn't that overwhelmingly big that I don't think
053it will take too much time. Um but then the idea will be partnering with student leadership team, partnering with NHS, partnering with student government. How do we get student leaders into our classrooms, into our flex rooms, which is part of the plan when I think about implementation? One piece that I failed to mention, there was that braids block here. I'll go back to it real quick. Um so on a every Wednesday we will have this 30 minute braids block time and braids block is our weekly instruction on our pillars. So again is it a leadership lesson? Is it going to be about goal setting? Those things are going to be led by students in collaboration with our teachers. Right now we uh we do it like once a month. It kind of surprises student. It
054catches them off guard. It's not their favorite thing right now because they don't like surprises just as much as we don't like surprises. Um, but next year it's going to be a regular occurrence. The other thing I failed to mention is this academic flex time. Again, right now we have three 30 minute periods for academic flex. All of these things that I was talking about that's going to happen in MP pulls from academic flex. Students want that time. >> The thing they hate more than anything is when I pull them from academic flex. So what we told them is this time is locked in. They are guaranteed. second and seven, first row, going on a on a trip. Nothing is going to take advantage of this time from them. Students get full choice. If they
055want to go meet with their counselor, they can do that, but the counselor can't take them during that time. That is reserved for them in their academics. So, um, but during this time would be that ongoing instruction by our upperassman, student leaders supporting all flex rooms in collaboration with teachers. Because this could be a little overwhelming for the freshman coming into our buildings because you know as such when they come into the high school they are a little nervous because we >> which is a good thing. We don't want them to be too comfort. We don't want them to be overly com comfortable. That is that could also be a thing you know >> also be a thing right so you know because there's so much that high school offers versus the middle school. So
056that's the reason why I was like >> right >> how are we going to handle those nervous kids who are just not comfortable stepping up and saying oh I need help >> for sure. So yeah, we'll have tiered support again um altered schedule, bridges, constant connection with, you know, our counselors, upper classmen within um the Braves block. Especially when I think about what those are going to cover early on the year, it's going to be a lot of not just managing the building, but managing how to utilize the email in a more efficient manner, how to utilize Google calendar in a more efficient manner. uh right now if I ask students to you know mark if they're attending an event via Google calendar I'm not 100% sure they would be you know very successful with
057that um so building in some of those routines which are going to make them successful in life will all be part of this plan um and that is certainly on our mind >> so this plan is not it's going to stay for the whole year it's not going to change in between because when we met the students uh during the superintendent interview we did hear from them that they don't like the sudden shift or the sudden change that happens without them knowing that why was this done for us. >> Yeah, for sure. I would say that's probably in reaction to what we tried last year. So, we did a scheduled trial last year um in collaboration with the middle school. Honestly, that failure set us up for success for this year. >> That's good. >>
058They didn't like it. Teachers didn't like it. Believe me, I heard from parents they didn't like it. Uh, you probably didn't like it, but you were very kind and didn't let me know you didn't like it. Um, but I would say that truly set us up for success for where we're going. Um, some people have asked, why not do a trial this year? We don't have all the pieces in place to actually run an authentic trial to know if it's going to work. Um, we're really confident it's going to work. Um, I don't see this being knee-jerk reaction of change. We're going to we're going to make it work. And I I know um it's not going to be perfect for every single student. Currently, the way we do school isn't perfect for every single
059student already. We adjust. We make, you know, for freshmen coming in. We work with that, too. So, um yeah, this this the plan isn't to try this for two weeks and then go back. >> I have no doubts our students will be able to handle this. No, >> I agree. I agree. >> Um Andy, I want to thank you, Mr. group >> for standing and and sharing this. And really what I want to say thank you about is that um this doesn't come from like an excitement of let's try something this new. This comes from problem solving. And we were hearing from our recent alumni on a regular basis that their lives were so overly scheduled that it was setting them up for some insecurities when they left us after graduation. This is going to
060give them a small taste of what that's like, but with a safety net. So that if we do have a kiddo who is not doing well in class, we are going to get in and support them and be like, "This would be a good time to go work with your teacher." Like, we'll be able to help them and we'll be able to show a gradual release of responsibility. So by the time that they're seniors, they're really able to manage this whole system seamlessly. And that's really what we wanted. I also want to thank you because what I know is that a high school principal could spend all of their time on um all of the things that they're managing on a dayby-day basis within the building. This took so much time and effort thinking about
061the future and having different conversations with people to get to this point. Um and I know that that created some early mornings and late evenings for you. So on behalf of our students, thank you. >> No, thank you. I just appreciate um when you work in a place where you get told to dream big and to think differently um and to be able to be at this point where we get to present um is truly a gift and why um again I'm just what a night to celebrate the high school. It's you know I had no idea we were having all of these students here and then celebrating Danielle. Um, it's truly a great place to be able to dream big, go beyond what whatever we imagined we were going to start off doing. So,
062I appreciate you all for allowing us to think this way. >> Yeah, >> Danielle, this isn't why you're going down the street, is it? >> I'm gonna come back. >> Okay, thank you. Uh, with that, we will move into the superintendent report. Item A of the superintendent report is approval of the kindergarten kickstart program with a tuition of $200 per student. You're going to see this also later in the agenda. I am very excited about the fact that we are for the first time ever going to have a kindergarten kickstart. All of our students who are registered for kindergarten will have an opportunity and try a mini kindergarten experience so that they um are working directly with the teachers and they don't feel as nervous for the first day of school. very excited about this
063opportunity. >> Remind me is this is this a week program? >> Uh this is going to be several days right before school starts. Uh the item B is the resolution declaring the impractability of transportation and offering payment to parents in lie of transportation. C is approval of SAT reading writing only prep course with a tuition of $225 per student. Again, I'm going to pause there and say this is the first time that we are offering SAT assistance um during the summer for our students as part of our summer school program. Very excited about that opportunity and thankful that we had parents who felt comfortable enough to reach out to say, "Hey, would the district be willing to do this?" It's a it's a really great idea and we're happy to be able to do so.
064D is approval of SAT mathonly prep with the tuition of 225 and E is approval of SAT full prep. So that would be reading, writing, and math with a tuition of $425. Approval F is approval of updated recruitment and retention bonus for bus drivers. Item G is personnel actions, tuition reimbursement, and professional meetings. One is approval of certified staff contract. I just want to highlight really quick two people. Katie Persani is going to be our primary school music teacher and we had a very thorough and rigorous interviewing process to find the next primary school person and I am so excited to announce Katie for this and what she's able to bring to the job immediately um was really evident um as an experienced and veteran teacher who had a lot of the same training that
065Barb Watson had for example ORF. So that will be great. I also want to highlight item B which is Mitchell Hardy is going to be replacing Chris Rochin who is retiring and I just want to highlight Mitchell because he's an alumni. So he is coming back to teach at the very same place where he learned all of his skills. Next we have approval of administrative contracts. Um and you will see Whitney Buell as the assistant superintendent of teaching and learning. Congratulations Whitney. Brian Phelps, especially looking at an adjustment that we're going to be making, will be the director of alumni and activity advancement. Um, and I we're already talking alumni almost every day, aren't we, Brian? So, super excited to have someone focus on that. And lastly, we have Danielle Lince, the elementary school principal.
066Danielle, do you do you have a few words that you'd like to say? And do you want to introduce who's here with you? >> Um, I have with me this evening my son Chase, my husband Charles, my mom Tony, and my dad Tom. They're my uh my proud cheerleaders. Um, this is an exciting um I'm going to get emotional. You, those who know me, just know that's who I am and that's what I do. Um, this is so bittersweet. I am the lucky one who had the opportunity to you know be had the experience down at the elementary for eight years. I was hired by Melissa, also worked under Whitney, had an amazing experience through co I was an instructional coach and then um I was presented with the opportunity of dean and that allowed
067me to get K through 12 experience and wow that that was one of the most amazing things that I ever did because it brought me here to the high school. So that is very bittersweet for me that I'll be leaving there. Um it has been one of the most rewarding four years of my career. And so I intend to take everything I've learned there and take down to the elementary to help prepare them for up here. So I'm very excited to return home um to return um and lead the staff that I partnered with for eight years. So very excited and thank you for the opportunity. Thank you. I say this to everybody we hire as a building principal in a building that I've got a kid in it. Are you sure you want to
068do this? >> I'm ju just throwing that out there. Good luck. >> But seriously, congratulations to all of you. Um take a second. These are all three exciting um promotions and changes for each of you. Uh Danielle, we know you'll do great at the at the elementary school. Uh Whitney, we're excited to have you join the central office here. Um, we've gotten to know you the last five years since I've been involved at the elementary school. Um, and then you stepped into this role um, a couple years ago on a intern basis. Um, and we know that you've got a great vision for for how to shape the district moving forward. Um, Brian, this is a role for you that I'm really excited about. Um, I don't even know if I told you this, but
069I had started thinking about having this kind of role before Melissa and I even talked about it. Um, and you were the person who I thought would be perfect for it. Uh, one of the things we've been talking about the past few years is how do we better leverage our alumni, both recent alumni and older alumni to provide the the talent that our alumni base has. I I truly believe this that we've got to have one of the most talent dense alumni networks in the country. And we've just never really had a mechanism to leverage that. Um, and it's not just about financial donations in the future. It's about connections to the entrepreneurship center, having them come in and say, "Hey, I graduated two, three years ago." Let me tell you what I think might
070have helped and change the high school schedule. All those little things to have a way now to to be more intentional in how we do that um is going to be really exciting. I can't wait for two or three years down the road to see what's come out of this. Um so I'm excited for for all these opportunities and thank you all for continued service. Moving on to item three is approval of administrative salaries. And Mc Davis, I hope you'll forgive me that I'm just now seeing an error that I made and that Jim Nichols title is incorrect. It should be assistant superintendent for human of human resources and operations. >> Do you want me to list it on next month's agenda as well so that we can get the title correct? >> We'll have
071the board that if they choose. >> Okay. Thank you. Item four is approval of an amendment to an administrative contract for Andy Gruber. Item five is approval of supplemental and personal contracts. And you'll see many of those have to do with the summer program we talked about for um kickstart kindergarten kickstart as well as SAT prep. Item six is approval of change of supplemental or personal contract. So if you look through that, that is boys volleyball. Seven is change of contract position. Charlotte Jarnell is currently a second grade teacher and she will be replacing Jen Anders who's retiring as the primary school media specialist. Two retirements, Debbie Friend and Suspino. If you don't mind, if I can pause just for a minute to talk about Suspino. She's really one of the institutional pillars of our
072entire school district, but especially when it comes to the primary school. I would challenge there's very few people walking the face of the earth who know more about early literacy than Suspino. And um this came as a little bit of a shock that she was retiring because I just thought she'd be here forever, forever and ever. Super happy for Sue, super sad for us, but I know she's leaving us in good hands because she has been such a collaborator with all of the teachers at the primary school for all of these years. So, super happy for Sue. Next, we have one resignation and then last we have three tuition reimbursements. >> Thank you, Dr. Stewart. Uh, any questions? None. We have a motion to approve the superintendent report. So move to approve uh A through
073E A through F and then G 1 through 10 with the edit on number three D Jim Nichols that title assistant superintendent of human resources and operations. >> I'll second that. >> Mr. Warfl. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Singh. >> Yes. >> Mr. Schwaker. >> Yes. >> Mr. Tullus. >> Yes. Uh thank you Dr. Stewart and thank you all. We're excited. Uh treasures report >> for this evening. Uh I would like to approve the minutes of the March 17, 2026 regular meeting. Approve the financial reports for the month ending March 31st, 2026 to pay two now and then invoices for the amounts of $5,000 to Liberty Mutual for a deductible and to the GER company for some emergency HVAC repairs at the elementary school. $3,28657. Approve the following contracts for the 2025 2026 school year. A
074memorandum of understanding with the University of Dayton and Saint Vincent Fair School. It's for a mental health therapist, $22,950. Uh funds that are paid for through the auxiliary funds uh through the state uh coordinated through Indian Hill School District. Item E is to approve the following contracts for next school year. the Hamilton County ESC annual services agreement uh total services for $320,52560 and then a city local credit for $13,773. And number two is the Warren County ESC. These are for nursing service agreements, $284,752. And a note on that one, these are for students uh according to their IEPs, not for our regular nurses that we have in the buildings. >> Thank you, Mick. Any questions? None. Do we have a motion to approve? >> Second motion. Second motion. >> Oh, okay. I make the motion
075to approve. >> Second. Mr. Schwert. >> Yes. >> Mr. Warfl. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Singh. >> Yes. >> Mr. Tolles. >> Yes. >> Thank you. >> Thank uh Dr. Stewart. School change or foot school fee change summit for first reading. >> This is the first reading. So this will be an opportunity to review this and then we'll be able to approve it at the next meeting when you look at it. There is very very little change. Most of the change that takes place is from the point of view of two things. One is what happens at the high school that sometimes is related to advanced placement or AP courses that are and then a little bit related to technology. >> Anything that you would add, Mr. Davis? >> Just a note on that technology. This
076was done by looking at the warranties on the machine and the cost of those warranties and putting the uh the fees to put to account for the three years of use of those machines by those particular students to cover those warranties. So we did a little bit of work uh behind the scenes to come up with that dollar amount >> was it which should be known the net savings in the district >> correct? >> Yes. >> Uh very good. Uh second readings for the mola policy updates. >> Yes. >> Uh we get a motion to approve the item 11 policy updates. Uh so move to approve uh you know the policy updates and those are a listed A through S. >> Second >> Mr. Warfl. >> Yes. >> Mrs. Singh. >> Yes. >> Mr. Schwer.
077>> Yes. >> Mr. Tullis. >> Yes. >> Uh thank you. Um, following kind of our newer standard operating procedures, we want to report out on board committee meetings for the past um, I guess month and a half or so, a little over month. Uh, we'll start with the operations committee. >> Sure. Um, yeah. So, we had our first operations uh, committee meeting March 19th. Um we started with a preliminary list of all the known uh potential projects uh that the facilities at the various different uh schools need. Uh we did bring in some outside partners to help us um assess the cost and the um identify technical issues uh with the various projects. Um we agreed that in terms of next steps uh the next thing we need to do is to create a comprehensive
078facilities assessment. Uh Mr. Nichols is taking the lead on that. Uh we also agreed that we should prioritize uh the different uh facility needs uh in the following manner. The first uh being mustd do projects things such as safety. Uh the second being uh projects that uh if not addressed could potentially impact the operation uh of the school. Uh the third bucket being where the uh return on investment makes sense to do uh the project at a certain time. A good example example might be uh an HBAC system that where it's more costly to continue to maintain it uh versus replace it. And then the fourth bucket being u nice to do nice to do projects that we'd like to do like like the fieldhouse. Uh our next meeting is a week from tomorrow and
079we're looking to uh work on that prioritization and then start putting some uh financial figures uh behind projects in those four different buckets and then marrying that with our cash flow plan from the uh from the finance committee. >> Great. Thank you. Any questions? >> Uh good. Thanks, Tim. um instruction and technology taking this one. >> Yes. So the instruction and technology committee held their first meeting uh April 9th and uh that was also in attendance. Um joined Nikki Singh and I serve on that. Melissa Stewart, MC Davis, Jim Nichols, Whitney Buell and Mark Richardson were also present. And some of the the bullet points for the the focus there was the achievement data review of the state report card and advanced placement uh scores. Also an implementation of tiered talks at the primary and
080elementary school three times a year for every teacher to review the progress of every student receiving suggestions and input from additional specialists such as the gifted intervention specialist and and intervention specialists. Uh professional learning model for staff members was also discussed. It's called personalized professionaliz or professional learning. And this is unique. It's a program that allows great flexibility for our teachers to complete uh learning in the summer, over breaks, and during school on topics of their choice. So, it is a it's a very very unique means for them to continue that professional development. Uh Mark Richardson also shared information about the current state of uh technology and our needs here within the district. Also, how they are monitoring and integrating artificial intelligence uh here at at Indian Hill Schools. Some of the potential next steps
081we were looking at were expectations as uh setting expectations for learners as doers, learners as individuals, and learners as the whole child at each existing grade. In other words, setting that expectation or benchmarks. What are the skills students should be needing to demonstrate at each of these uh these benchmarks? And then an annual report at the board of education meeting uh to review the district's goals and progress toward those goals, including the state report card. Uh Mr. Guber highlighted some of this as well on how we want to focus on the college entrance readiness for our students and that really brings into line uh prioritization, time management as some of the key fundamentals. Building a stronger connection between the alumni and college representatives. Uh again, you just heard that position that that Brian's going to
082be stepping into uh a blog by Dr. Stewart to share information about instructional practices that are occurring within the district. also helping students find a blend between classes of interest, college credit plus, and advanced placement. We know that many of our high school students enter with a formulary on how to get the highest GPA. Um what we're really trying to determine is what's going to get them toward figuring out what they want to do, how to get the most out of their education while they're here and providing those opportunities through that combination of extracurriculars uh that the clubs and activities as well as of course that that structure and then recognition of technology changes in education as well as the constant shift and updating. We've also decided to change the title uh to director of
083innovation and technology for Mr. Richardson. >> Great. Thank you for that good report. Um it be good to be monitoring some of these more objective standards we see in the report cards and good to hear all that. Any questions from Tim and Nikki? >> Um I will handle the finance committee report since I was there. Uh Nolan um is unable to be here tonight. Uh so we met on April 16th to start looking at in a more detailed manner the overall district financial health and what a potential ask could look like um going down the path for improvements to the facilities to be paid um operational dollars for for educational purposes. um not necessarily talking about we need this amount of money, more what will that process look like if we get there. Um one
084thing we we did talk about and it's worth noting is the bonds which were issued to pay for the high school back in 2001 or two 2001 u will burn off our tax roles at the end of next year calendar year. So calendar year 27 that's about 1.35 mills. Uh so we will see that be being dropped off our uh tax bills which will be a savings to the community. Um so as we look into what could be next. Um that's a good factor to know that we're going to be seeing that expense drop off. So any um dollars we ask for the community hopefully could be offset to some degree by that savings. Uh we also looked at and talked about and this is very very high level talked about if we need operational
085dollars um again not as much the amount yet um but if we need them do we look at a traditional school levy that we've all seen or do we look at some type of ear earned income tax or income tax which is an available option for us to ask the voters for um the the the chief advantage of that at the moment is the tax real estate tax system in Columbus is I don't know what the right word is under attack. Um difficult to predict um all those things which make it hard to plan for you know how if we go out and ask for this amount of dollars we want to make sure we get the amount of dollars we're expecting and with the current changes that keep happening in Columbus there's no guarantee
086that we would see that through real estate tax. So that was simply just a discussion of what could that look like what are the options for how that would work. Um again very very preliminary. I think for our next steps the plan is to look at the information that the um operations committee comes up with as far as facility needs. Uh also the I should have mentioned the other thing we were looking at is how do we tighten our own belt financially? Uh where can we achieve some savings just by looking at our own budget and and challenging some expenses. Um I think the goal is to have a list of some savings we can sort of say this is what we've accomplished by the end of the school year, early part of the summer.
087Um so that's a collaborative effort across all the committees with the whole team. Uh but I think it's important that we do take a look at where can we save and where are we utilizing our tax dollars the most effectively. Um so next steps will be to kind of digest the information that comes out of the operations committee. Uh and then really, you know, to the extent there will be any public ask for dollars would be starting a public facing process to get the community's input as to what their appetite for that investment will be, what that would look like, and then get more specific on the amounts, timing, etc. Um so it was a good it was a good discussion. It was certainly a first discussion. Um there will be more and we'll have
088more to report back. >> What's the what's the timing you see in terms of when we have to start pulling that out to the public. >> Um I I think the earliest we would put anything on the ballot would be a year from May. Um but we would if we're going to do that, we would start the public process pretty soon. >> Um I don't think we're there yet to know exactly what we need. I think >> and I think the public process too will also allow us to hear what the public thinks we need. Um we learn anything on the the last level levy we did was the idea of we need this or we want this is very subjective. There are some situations where it will be clear it's a need, but a
089lot of times the idea of a need versus a want depends on your perspective on something. Um, some people would say the fieldhouse is a want, some would say it's a need. Um, it just depends on where you are. Um, and so that's something we're going to have to talk to the community about and get their input and see how what they feel about it. Uh, so >> agreed. But so no decisions been made on anything just to be clear if anybody's paying attention. Um, but you know, we think that's something that's what we were talking about in the five-year forecast. You look at it, it's just the reality is our expenses are up and our enrollment is growing. Um, our enrollment at the primary school is exploding and we've got to account for that
