Adopted a 17th day of June 2025. That lawyer was one of the first teachers I met when I came to the district. phenomenal and hardworking, dedicated and um I remember everyone say you know hey you know it's her her

005scores are phenomenal because she puts in so much time and for the standards during school after school over the summer and it shows then she moved up to the middle school that did the exact same thing with the exact same dedication and for over 41 years hey your sharpest attack 41 years I don't know it been education that's that's a long time in education but we do appreciate all everything you've done for the district and mentoring me as a young superintendent and also other teachers as well. Thank you. We will miss you very picture. Would you like I appreciate your support picture? Yes. Yes. Picture of the board. Stand up. Oh, we'll just stand up here. [Music] Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much. Congratulations. Next we have the mighty Eastwood Overland Elementary School

006and we have Mrs. Weber Hill provides um recognition for retirees there too as well. It's on. All right. I'm already on. Good. Well, thanks for having us tonight. We have quite a few retirees um to recognize. a few of them were able to be here with us, but I wanted to make sure because those who aren't here with us tonight um did let me know they would be watching at home um or from someplace fabulous um because they're already starting their retirement. So, um first we I just want to recognize Sandy Evans. Sy's been a parapro with our district for three years now. Um some highlights about Sandy I wanted to share. Um she's probably one of the most creative people you'll ever meet. um she could take pipe cleaners, old socks, yarn, turn them

007into puppets, turn them into play things for the kids she worked with. Um but overall her just making a space where students really truly felt cared for and cared about. Um she made a really conscious effort to make personal connections with each of them. Um so we're sad to see her go, but very happy for her. She told me she's going to plan to travel with her husband to see their children. So sad to see her go, but happy for her. Um, we also want to recognize Donna Ku. Donna Ku has been with the district for 34 years um, right here in Oberlin. She started out as a substitute um, in the offices and in the cafeteria and on the playground and then was made full-time. And she's very versatile. Like I said, she probably

008had eight or nine different principles she worked under. And when I looked through um Donna's files to find some things about her, one of the things that shown through all of it was that she was a great team player and always came to work with the mindset of what can she do to help the school, help her students um that she served. So her presence will be greatly missed um and all the impact she had over the years. Uh we also want to recognize Kathy Keeling. Kathy Keeling is a teacher and some of you probably your children had Mrs. Keeling over the years. Mrs. Keeling was with us for 32 years. Um she was my partner in fourth grade for a while. I got to watch her during some of my student teaching too. Um

009she always had a mindset of challenging her students to strive and do their best. Um creating a sense of class community and going above and beyond to meet individual student needs. Um, we hope in her retirement she has lots of happiness, new experiences, and time with those who mean the most to her. She has a little she has two sons. She has a grandbaby girl and another one on the way. So, gets to be full-time grandma, which is awesome. Um, and I also want to recognize um, you probably know her as Christine Holman, but we know her as the queen of third grade. So, if Mrs. Holman, you'd like to come up. Hi, Dr. Um, so Mrs. Holman um was here when I did my student teaching. She was across the hall to me and

010then when I was hired full-time with Oberlin, she was actually my mentor for the first year. Um but then became a lifelong mentor, someone I could always go to. Um, and um, when we spoke about her with the staff a few weeks ago, we said she was the original AI because if you were unsure of how to say something, you went to Christine and asked her or you thought in your head, how would Christine say this? And that usually put a little bit of a more gentle spin on things. Um, so we just want to recognize her for all of her years here um, and share this resolution. Whereas Christine Holman has served the students of Oberlin City School District with dedication and distinction for 32 years. And whereas she's made a lasting impact on

011the lives of countless students whose mind she opened and sparked a life of lifelong love of learning, deepening their knowledge of reading and math as well as Oberlin's history. Um, and whereas she is a cornerstone of Prospect School and Oberlin Elementary, contributing to the academic, social, emotal growth of students, being a steadfast pillar of care, compassion for students, families, and staff. And whereas her presence will be greatly missed by her students, colleagues, and the administration as her as her legacy continues to live on throughout the school and throughout the community. Now therefore, be it resolved that Overland City School District Board of Education on behalf of the entire school district community does by hereby formally recognize and extend its deepest appreciation to Christine Holman for her many years of service and dedication. Be it further

012resolved that we express our deepest gratitude for her dedication and the lives she has shaped over the years. May her years ahead be filled with joy, relaxation, and countless new adventures. Christine Holman. All right. like to say a few words. Yep. Come for a picture. Like to personally thank you for all your um service to time. Congratulations. Thank you. Can I have a hug before you go? All right. [Applause] I just want to teach you all go by classroom. I don't think I ever saw you angry upset. You always smiled. Everybody used to go by classroom. Always had a smile. Thank you. I just want to thank all the retirees and appreciate all your service and time to the district. I have a few facilities update or a few updates. Um summer school, we have

013a couple summer school programs occurring right now um within the district. It onramp camp is currently going on. Have about 15 students or so in that. And that's going on for our middle school students. Our eighth graders going to ninth grade graders um at Linkson Middle School. Um we have a K8 um summer program going on. Mr. Nene has been um coordinating um for the last couple of months and it has been going on for second week of summer school. Have about 30 or so students involved in that program. This year students were um selected and invited and recommended to attend the summer school program as opposed to last year where it was open for most students to come. Um, that's going on from June the 9th to the 27th, Monday through Thursday. Kinder camp

014will continue on. That's July the 28th to August the 2nd. That will be going on at OES. Um, high school credit recovery, algebra camp, and a Apex courses are still going on at um, Orland High School. And we have a lot of students attending all those camps and like to encourage especially our little ones to attend Kinder Camp and to call the school if they're interested in attending. And I'm sure they can register online for kinder camp. It's a great way for getting kids uh ready for kindergarten. We have facilities update I provide to the board and the community. Our summer cleaning has started. Uh we hired summer cleaning our summer help this summer to provide support for our custodians and cleaners. Um they've been doing a great job this summer um assisting outside work.

015You may see them outside throughout um last couple weeks. They're out there weeding, um, painting, moving furniture, doing various projects, um, providing a lot of support for our maintenance staff as well. So, if you see them outside, those are younger students that are outside helping and working with the district. Uh, we end up hiring four um, four summer help individuals for that as well. Um, update on air conditioning. on agenda the district um you'll see we rescending the previous item on the agenda for hammock construction performing the air conditioning project. This was approved last month but we're resending it this month. The new agenda item you'll see will allow the district to seek local HVAC vendors to install air conditioning instead of just utilizing Hammond. Um we went out to seek other local vendors um

016provide air conditioning um in the van choir and possibly the multi-purpose room. What we'll do is um hopefully we'll have that installed before the goal is to have that installed for our students and staff um before summer's over um in August. So when they come those are the last three rooms that do not have air within the high school. Um also on agenda you'll notice overland college agreement. Um, the district will utilize some of the college property east of Orin Elementary to construct a new maintenance building. Um, the district will need a new maintenance building due to the new middle school coming on board next couple years here. Um, so we will be leaving the new maintenance building probably, you'll notice in um this year sometime 25 26 school year and we'll be constructing a

017new maintenance building actually south of Orman Elementary School um in a property area located directly behind us. Um, and hopefully I'll be built and without interfering with any construction um, parts um, going on for the 2526 school year. And that was an agreement with the college that took probably about 3 to four months. We've worked collaboratively with them um, through town and gown various meetings with Kevin Brown. Like to thank the college on their cooperation with that. They're allowing us to utilize an easement on that property. also like to announce officer Needm. You'll notice a couple items on board um on the board agenda that will recognize Officer Needm. One of them is walk and roll to school. Um we would like to recognize um Officer Needam by having an annual our annual walk and

018roll to school um time and name that after officer need and I would like Mr. Nene, he worked a lot with working our uh working our walking a road to school event. So, he can provide some input and some insight on why we're doing this for officer Billy Needle. Thank you, Dr. Hall. Good evening, boys. Good to see you all. Um, Officer Nem was extremely uh instrumental in planning um organizing and promoting uh walk to school. Um and mostly just ensuring that our our students were was there that you got there safely. Um but beyond that, the kids just love seeing them. They love seeing them and made it even more special um by doing this. Uh it's a small but meaningful way to recognize everything that officer Nam has done for our community and

019it will just keep his legacy alive and um remind us that one person can make a difference in through kindness and active service. So um the walk to school we did it twice one in the fall and one in uh spring like usually around May. Uh it was the entire district mostly OES participated but it was open to the the entire district. It was really a great time. We add we added road to walk to school cuz students can then ride bikes and um the roller skates whatever they wanted to do. And we had some um parents that uh was very involved and they also rode bikes and participated. So it was a it was really great time. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. That was one of the ways we wanted to recognize um patrol

020officer Billy Nem as well. He was very instrumental to the district. Uh we also would like to have um on here will be a resolution for Safety Town bench to have a plaque dedicated on the U bench in Safety Town. That's located to the right of us. Um before you go inside Safety Town, Inter Safety Town, there's a couple benches out there. So, we like to have that um installed um and have a ceremony um on open doors um and invite the parents and community during open doors to um have a little ceremony, invite his family back as well to um be recognized as well during that time. Um just to show his family and woo woo, Miss Billy. Okay. We also have a couple of projects on the agenda too to resurface the high

021school stage floor. That's the addition that's the added um item onto the agenda. Uh we since I've been here over almost 10 years uh we have not resurfaced the high school stage floor and um we like to get that done this summer. So it's on the agenda right now so that we can have that done hopefully before the school year starts. And an Eastwood update. We're still working with the Overland Land Trust. The district will maintain a property over the summer. So we'll update you when we have more information, but we are still working with overland Land Trust and the college and other entities on that. So we're still having conducting meetings uh with that. Okay, that concludes my report. Any questions? None here. Okay. Okay. Next, I'll entertain a motion to approve board items

022A through E. Second. It's been properly moved and seconded. We have item A, which is approval of the May 27th, 2025 regular session minutes. Item B is approval of the resolution naming the annual district walk and roll to school day as the officer Billy Needm memorial walk and roll to school day and commemorative bench plaque. Item C is approval of the resolution declaring transportation impractical as transportation is deemed impractical by school conveyance pursuant to the requirements of Ohio Revised Code section 3327 and in accordance with the procedures established by the Ohio Department of Education for a student to attend St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception in Avon. And then we have item D, approval of the resolution declaring the transportation of certain identified students to be impractical in accordance with Ohio Revised Code section 30

0233327.02 and the procedure set forth by the Ohio Department of Education. And then item E, approval of the OCSD and Oland College easement agreement for 71 7416 acres. Um, Dr. Hall, any you want to add on any of these items or are there any questions on these items? No, I think we discussed them um previously and I think we um well needed an easement piece agreement with the college and then in practical um resolution or and practical piece on approval has been done before pass. And then can you just clarify again where where the easement is located? easement is located directly south of us um right across from Ring Road. So, the maintenance shed will be located there. And of course, we still have a little more work to do. We have to work with

024the city and permits. And I'm sure after this board meeting, I'll probably get five phone calls from the planning commission, but the work is coming. Okay, it's moving. Any questions, comments? Okay, please call the role. Miss Anderson White, yes. Miss Garrett, yes. Miss Stagel, yes. Miss Amecha, yes. Next, I will entertain a motion to approve board item F. So moved. Second. It's been properly moved and seconded. F is the approval of the resolution determining to proceed with the submission to the electors of the school district. the question of the renewal of an existing tax levy pursuant to sections 5705.194 to 5705.197 of the Ohio Revised Code. Any questions or comments on that section? Hearing none, please call the role. Miss Anderson White, yes. Miss Garrett, yes. Mr. Dagel, yes. Missa, yes. Next, I will entertain

025a motion to approve board item G. So moved. Frederick, it's been properly moved and seconded. Item G is approval of the resolution submitting to the electors of the school district the question of the renewal of an existing 2.0 mill tax levy for the purpose of general permanent improvements pursuant to section 5705.21 of the Ohio Revised Code. Uh, any questions or comments? Hearing none, please call the role. Miss Anderson White. Yes. Miss Garrett, yes. Miss Stagel, yes. MCA, yes. Okay. Next, we have um I'll entertain a motion to approve treasurer's items A through G. So moved. Second. It's been properly moved and seconded. Bob. Okay. Um we have the reports for May. We ended the month of May with 46,839,79.96. Of that we had $17,00089 of outstanding warrants and we balanced to the penny. Interest for

026the month of May was $96,842.38. Um we are closing up the fiscal year. Um our year does end in June. So, um, through May, we had 92% of our, um, budget should be paid for. We came in ending the general fund budget at 84.9 of what we projected to spend, but we do have the transfers that you'll get here in a second. That does amount to a lot of money that will make up that difference to get us to where we were. Um, other than that, um, we are still balanced to the five-year forecast. Um, purchase services might be a little higher. We did receive a couple contracts for summer school for special ed students that I didn't know about and we approved last month, so they weren't in the budget at that time. So,

027um, other than that, um, we're doing fine. We're waiting to hear what the state does with the B budget. Um, right now it's not looking good for public schools, but we're hoping that the committee between the Senate and the House will um put it back into perspective. So, um, if you haven't contacted your elected officials, we would appreciate sticking up for public schools. If anybody has questions, I will try to answer with some of the proposals that are out there. If not, I'll move on. Questions? None here. Okay, we have transfers. Um the big transfer is $1.3 million to pay off the notes on the elementary. Um we have decided with the legislature, talking to some of the board members, um that we are going to transfer this money instead of advancing it so that

028we will no longer have to worry about waiting till collection. So, come January, the tax the community will see a reduction in the debt service um because they won't have to pay back the 1.3. We're going to use our overages in the general fund to pay those off. Um the next one is 32,000 from the general fund to athletics. Last year it was 22,000. So, it's staying and we did add four sports this summer or this year. So that is why it's more um food service is 155,000. Um that is up from last year but most of that is from we made 13 payments this year instead of 12 because last year ABI was late getting us the December invo or the June invoice. So it didn't get paid until this year. Um and then

029the last one is the transfer 200,000 from the general fund to the um phase two fund and that is to cover the air conditioning and the um maintenance building um that we will be adding to the construction project. Next is temporary appropriations. Um we are looking to appropriate for next year $32,452,000. Um again this is going off our budget that was passed in January and considering what we will have to pay for the cops issue that we just issued. Um everything should fall in line. And I'm still waiting. We're we're just now doing DDS on the construction project to find out where the construction schedule's going to be. So that the capital project fund could be changing depending on how far we get this year. But that's standard every year. Next is with the retirees

030that we had. A few of them with their severance would like to um have it put in a 457 plan that is um ran by OASBO and we don't have that P plan currently. We only have the plan that um the district has is with Deferred Comp and they're already investing with the company that runs the 457 plan with OASBO. So this is a resolution to allow us to pick up that plan so that they can when their severance is paid in September, they can put the money into that plan. Next is we did do the RFP with food service. We interviewed three companies and AVI1. So this is the one-year addendum to the five-year agreement um with the state. The state did approve the five-year agreement and the one-year and now we just need

031our approval. Next is the district has to have a depository of public funds with the bank every five years and this is just to renew that with Northwest Bank. And last on there is a donation from Oberlin Elementary PTO of $328 to cover the t-shirts for the fifth grade exhibition. That's all I have, Mr. President. Thank you. Any questions or comments on those items? Hearing none, please call the role. Miss Anderson White? Yes. Miss Garrett? Yes. Miss Stagel? Yes. Miss Mecca? Yes. Next we have superintendence consent items A through Q four. Uh I will entertain a motion to approve those items. So move second. It's been properly moved and seconded. Dr. Hall. Yes. Item A is approval. um to resend the item was previous discussed with air conditioning from Hammond Construction. Um and item B

032is replacing that with um being able to use um HVAC agencies are um contractors outside of Hammond Construction for the same amount 75,000. Item C is approval of the OPCOU for a class 2 floating cafeteria substitute position. that position right there. Um, we're changing it from the 24 to 27 um, year for three-year period of the contract for Oopsie. Um, usually we renew that every year. So, instead of renewing it every year, which is needed, um, Oopsy and the district has agreed to just keep it and keep that position until the end of the contract. Item D is approval of 2425 ASG education services. Um, that's another service that we utilize for a student. Item E is approve of a 2526 SC um strategic solutions annual maintenance invoice. That's a program we utilize for um

033monitoring our um purchase orders and finances u for the district. Item F is frontline education financial planning and an analytical subscription. Front line is a program utilizes well to manage uh the district utilize to manage certain items like um hiring go through there um we manage um subservers through there different services we manage through front line item G is a frontline education application track that's an addition to the frontline service that would allow us to compare um to utilize to compare different salaries to period live birth rates but provide us with more data um for the five-year forecast and also to make um more informed decisions for the district. So that'll addition will provide some more resources for the district. Item H is frontline education comparative radicals um analytical subscriptions. Um that is also part

034of the package that will provide more resources for the district as well through frontline. And I apologize item H is actually the addition piece um added on to front line for that. Item I is um service agreement for the achievement centers for children for ESC of Northeast Ohio. Um that's another service as well for students that are um that we utilize for ESY for summer programming. Um this right here program is also used for ESY for a student that's used in for the summer and we'll have another agreement probably for the rest of the 2526 school year forum but this student is actually attending a summer program. Item J is educational alternative service is EA provide support for students. Another um agency that the school utilize um to have students go to. Item A or

035I'm sorry item K is Lorraine County inter agency agreement. Um that's an agreement with different um support agencies like mental health agencies that the district utilized to provide support for our students and it's annual occurrence that this allow us to use various belfare different agencies within the county um for provide support for our students and families. Item L is um middle school career tech waiver. The district utilizes this every year. Um the middle school we do not offer CT programming. So according to state we have to submit a waiver um until we offer CT courses at the middle school. Currently now we do not provide that service. Um our schedules are pretty full. So maybe in the future we may end up buying CT services. At this time we do not. Item M is PSI

036affiliates. Um item N is Meta Solutions final forms. Um of course a lot of you may know about final forms. That's the athletic program that's used. Um, and also the EMA program that we implemented for the district for the last few years that's allowed parents not to fill out EMAs every year, but they'll be allowed to go online and update it. Item O is um district education for ASL. O is for um ASL um at the high school that will utilize that service online for our students. Item P are field trips for the district that we offer to the city of Overland as well over the summer period. our bus drivers um actually facilitate that. Q is personnel report.

038to say about you. Former ELA teacher, academics, um pretty much cares about students. Um love to being a teacher. Um so that's from everyone I' I've talked to from there for the last couple days. Not sure if you'd like to say a few words. Good evening. I would like to thank you for this opportunity to join the Phoenix team and to help continue to grow the students of Oberlin City Schools. Thank you. Thank you. Nice to meet you. Thank you. Congratulations. Item four, supplemental contracts for athletics and also for um summer programming. and requesting approval of item A through R4 from the board. I have a question before we go forward. So, with the hires that we have represented here, do we have any positions that are still outstanding that need to be filled? Yes,

039we still we had a late retire our late um resignation at the elementary. So, we still have that one to be filled. And of course, we're always still looking for an ASL teacher if we have one out there, which have been posted for two years, maybe. So, if we have an ASL teacher out there is interested. Um, high school is pretty um full their vacancies. Middle school the same. And I think the last position we're looking for at the elementary, and I think we'll should be able to lock that up in the next couple weeks here. Okay. Did we Oh, sorry. Did we hire a um temporary art teacher for the high school? Has that been I didn't see that. Um, no, they're interviewing for that and hopefully we'll have that um secured by next

040couple days here. We also are looking for um some other positions that are leaving temporarily like our school psychologists will be leaving temporarily will fill that too as well. So, from what I heard, I guess other than this art teacher position, we don't have anything open at the high school or the middle school. Just this one position at the elementary school. Yes. Okay. In the high school job, um the art job is not a full-time job. just sub. Okay, we do have a couple of candidates for that that we're interviewing. Those were my questions. Any others hearing? None. Please call the role. Miss Anderson White, yes. Miss Garrett, yes. Miss Dagel, yes. Miss Mecca, yes. Oh, like would announce too, we on here a bus driver. We are hiring a bus driver. Yay. So phenomenal.

041I'm excited about that. Now that's important. Um, okay. And next we have um board updates for the various um committees or groups that we serve as liaison for. Uh do we have any updates? Yes. Um as uh liaison for uh legislative liaison. Um, the Ohio School Board Association is currently tracking 108 bills that pertain to public education that are making their way through the Ohio Legislature, which is pretty horrifying. Um, and uh, if anybody's interested in reading all of those, you can get them online at OSBA. Um most horrifying in my opinion is uh House Bill 355 which makes tax levies including levies uh that would affect schools, police and fire need uh to have a 60% threshold in order to pass which would make it almost impossible. Um, also, uh, House Bill 28 would

042eliminate replacement, uh, tax levies, completely eliminate them. Um, so I would like to second what Bob said earlier. Please call your legislators and, uh, contact them and tell them that we really need our children's future to be secured. Um, it it honestly by reading all of this information that's coming through our state legislature, it looks like they're trying to starve public education. Um, we have an opportunity to talk directly with Kelly Deer, who is currently our state rep. She's going to be at the Columbia Station Library at 10:00 on Saturday, June 28th. Personally, I plan to be there and tell her that I want her as my rep to support public education. She is not on board and we need to uh let her know that as our rep, we want her to be on

043board. So, um I won't sit here and read you all the phone numbers as I've done in the past of all of our reps. The information is easily uh found online, but you need to call our state reps and our federal reps and tell them we this is important and we need to secure our children's future. Thank you. Thank you, Janet. Any other updates? No. Okay. Uh I don't have an update either. Uh okay. Next we have hearing of the public on other items. Do we have anybody sign up? Nope. Okay. Thank you. Uh future meetings. So before we scadaddle um we have our board retreat tentatively scheduled for August 16th. We do have one one board member I think who cannot attend on that day. Uh does that work for everyone else? Okay. So

044we we're missing one other person. So I think that's going to be the date. Um we do need to decide what we want to cover on that day. And so we have a list here of a lot of great things. Um, and I don't know how many sub how many subjects do we have time for? Um, Henry's born if we have it there from 9 to two. So, we probably have time for about three or four. Three or four. And I would recommend with everything going in legislation that may want to it's getting really weird there. Okay. So leg something to do with the legislature or which one of these is I think if you want to look over it and get back to us by the end of next week then we can get

045it scheduled. I will say that I would like to do a board assessment. Okay. Uh I think that's something that's usually pretty customary at a board retreat. So Got yeah I think that should be at the top of the list. Um, and then yeah, I think the looking at the alleged something to do with the legislature and changes in the law is probably a good idea. But, uh, we all have the same list now. And can somebody give it to Rosa? Yes, please. If you all could, well, email me individually with what topics you'd like to cover. Um, then I we can help compile the list of stuff that we can cover on that day. You said three or four topics, right? Three or four items. So, we will narrow it down. Okay. Um Okay.

Then the next regular meeting is going to be later that month, August 26th. Uh it will be here at Oland Elementary School at 6 p.m. our regular time. And then the next meeting after that will be September 9th, 2025. It'll be a work session here at the Oland Elementary School at 6 PM. Um hopefully those dates don't come as fast as I just read them.
