Um, but again, I'm just really very thrilled to have our students who are recognized, excuse me, recognized in

004a certain way that's really going to be beneficial for our kids and for our community. So, our fifth grade teacher, Miss Lassler, please come up and introduce our kids. Good evening, everybody. I'd like to call up Marie Katruglia. You want to come up? Okay, Marie. Um, the fifth grade teachers would like to recognize her as one of our outstanding students who truly embodies what it means to be a leader and a learner in school. Marie is a fabulous student and gives her very best effort in everything she does. She asks thoughtful questions and is persistent in working through challenges. Her hard work and determination have led to impressive growth and success in all of her classes. Beyond academics, she sets an example of kindness, respect, and perseverance for her peers. Marie is the kind of

005student who always has a smile on her face. Yes, she has a positive attitude that makes the classroom a brighter place to be. And she lifts others up just by being herself. She is quick to lend a hand to classmates who might need who might need some support and often can be heard in offering encouraging comments to others. The compassion and teamwork she displays make her a wonderful role model to others. We're so proud of all she's accomplished and grateful for the positive energy that she brings to our Raider family every single day. Congratulations, Marie. [Applause] Okay. And our sixth grade teacher, Mrs. Pine. Um, the sixth grade staff is honored to recognize Gabriella Wear. Come on up. As our October outstanding raider students, Gabriella possesses the qualities of a remarkable student and model citizen

006in our school community. She is a natur or has a natural instinct to help others. She ensures that all her work is complete and always at a high standard. She is engaged in class activities daily, often contributing to the discussions that they have in class. She always has a positive attitude and her kindness for her classmates never goes unnoticed. Gabriella is a true role model and is an exceptionally deserving student of this recognition. >> Congratulations. [Applause] and seventh grade, Mrs. Rakita. Hi everybody. Um, the seventh grade would like to honor Miss Avery Conrad. If you want to come up So, good evening members of the board, superintendents of Pollnick, educators, families, and guests. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak tonight. I'm honored to recognize one of our outstanding students, a seventh grader

007who exemplifies what it means to be a dedicated, responsible, and respectful young person. Avery is the kind of student every teacher hopes to have in class. She's hardworking, conscientious, and consistently gives her best effort in everything she does. Whether it's a challenging assignment, a group project, or an everyday classroom task, Avery approaches it with determination, attention to detail, and a positive attitude. What truly sets her apart is not just academic diligence. It's the way she conducts herself with maturity, kindness, and a strong sense of responsibility. Avery is respectful to her peers and teachers and is always willing to lend a hand and often goes out of her way to support others. In a world that often celebrates the loudest voices or the flashiest achievements, it's important to also recognize the quiet leaders, the students who

008lead by example, who show up every day with integrity, and who make our schools simply better by being who they are. We are proud of Avery and grateful to have her as part of our school community. And it's students like her who remind us why we do the work we do. Please join me in recognizing and congratulating Avery for her outstanding character. I'm going to stand over here because I'm helping the video the whole time. I want to make sure you're seeing it. So, come up Harley. It's Harley Booms. So, choosing Harley see in the video. Come on. You need to be in the video. >> Choosing Harley as our Raider profile student was an easy decision. He represents all the ships we value. You can be captain of the ship. Actually, most notably, Harley

009stands out for scholarship. He completes every assignment with focus and determination, consistently producing exceptional work. Harley's especially impressive in how he manages his classes. Because he takes a high school level math class, yes, in the high school, he leaves my class a few minutes early, but he always makes a point to check in afterwards, ensuring he stays caught up. His level of responsibility and self-awareness is rare, especially for someone his age. He has set ambitious ambitious goals for himself and will not let anything get in the way. Harley demonstrates a level of drive and foresight well beyond his years. He is a role model outside his classroom as well. Despite being admired by many of his peers, both for his academic abilities and his athletic talents, he remains humble and respectful. Harley's teachers frequently note

010his maturity and kindness. As Mr. Rapid shared, "He may just be the most polite student I've had in years. All of his teachers agree." Furthermore, leadership comes naturally to Harley. He consistently supports both his classmates and teachers, stepping up to help wherever needed, often without asked, without being asked. Harley's ability to earn the respect of both peers and adults while consistently making positive choices sets him apart. As Mrs. best put it, he's just not too cool for school, even though he totally could be. We are proud to recognize Harley, not only as an outstanding student, but as the kind of young man, those of you who have young um young men, young young boys, the kind of young man you'd want your own sons to admire and learn from. Good job. Picture time. So, at

011this time, both teachers, if you come back back up, we're going to go right back. >> Yeah, you go behind the table. Thank you so much. [Applause] One, two, three. One, two, three. All right, teachers, if you want to go ahead in, we'll get a picture. >> Can we all fit? >> Yeah. >> All right. On three. One, two, three. One, two, three. All right. Now, the last one. If the board wants to go on, go ahead in. >> All right. On three. One, two, three. One, two, three. All right. Families, feel free to take any pictures if you got it. Leave. Yeah, absolutely. Thank you. Thank you, guys. Thank you. >> Anybody wants any pictures, feel free. This time is yours. [Music] All [Music] right. So, at this time, we're going to continue with

012our regular board agenda. Feel free to stay. If not, if you would want to go out and get dinner, absolutely. We appreciate you guys being here. Again, we're going to proceed with our board games. Thank you. Okay. All right. We're going to go and go to item number six, public participation for agenda items. Anybody has anything like to share? We just ask for your name and address. And then we're going to ask for two minutes. Um, and anybody on the list? If there's anybody else, we'll just keep going to number seven, communications. >> Yeah. First, um, I'm excited to share that we will be holding our Raider ambassador meeting uh, next week with a specific Raider communication group that we have. Great opportunity to have some two-way communication um, with with that group. In September,

013we held our second cup of coffee at Seas Waffle. I appreciate the the parents and and Liz and Mario for attending that. Um we received a lot of good input and from that we were able to take some input to back to the team and we had a peace and safety meeting that same day and actually we had some changes and some procedures that parents were concerned about with safety that we brought to the attention of the law enforcement and and those that are at the peace and safety meeting. So that was a really good um opportunity to to make some change. Uh we'll have another second cup of coffee in February. Um I do have three updates. First, this year our counseling team solidified a proactive safety curriculum for students in the district. We're

014implementing Erica's Lighthouse, Sandy Hook Promise, and Start with Hello, as well as some other curriculum for social emotional needs um in the classrooms. Next, I'm reporting that back in I believe it was May or June, we ordered safety room stickers cuz some of them are kind of faded on the outside of the windows and for whatever whatever reason, the company just didn't receive them back over the summer. recently they did come in and I know Dean and his crew went and picked them up and they're in the process of fixing some of the faded out um stickers from the windows. Last, as the board is aware, the last few months going back to April and May, we had discussions of recording our board meetings and putting them online. Going back to June and then July,

015we piloted a technology as you can see here. We piloted this owl technology and worked out some kinks. I know I know Dean and and George worked over the last few months of why things weren't recording after the meetings and so forth. So, as you can see here in front of us, we purchased that AL technology. So, that's at that's hours out and we will be recording this meeting and then posting it on the website by Friday. And we just want to make sure we record and it and it works um because it's our technology now. We're not borrowing the one that we had. So by Friday I think of each after each board meeting we want to have that website uh updated with the live stream or with the stream of the meeting. Next

016with our safety and resources update um there are a lot of property tax reform issues on on the docket for the legislation and and last week I attended the superintendent conference where we learned a lot about what's going on with local property taxes. Ohio families pay the eighth highest property taxes out of um the 50 states. We're we're number eight out of 50. Um and just going back of why we got into the situation, it's decades of state policies changing going back to the 1990s. Homeowners and and farmers paid about 47% of local taxes. Today, it's nearly 70%. So, we know property tax reform is is much needed. um as more has gone to local the state share has decreased to about 30%. Where at one time it was reversed. So there's a lot of

017conversation um of what to do. You know schools have consolidated since the 80s. Um we have shared services. We have stretching every dollar but we know families need that that property tax relief and we know communities need strong schools. So I think the communication from the board and the community is talking to legislators, talk about like what can we do together so that schools are still having the resources needed and at the same time property um owners are getting that relief. I mean I know that's a push about 400 schools in the state of Ohio. Historic changes are happening um in the state of Ohio with that. My last update um is simply that we are nearing the end of fall sports with a lot of events going on and so forth. Um so we

018just wish all of our athletes, cheers, band, all of those individuals. >> Okay. Thank you. Moving on to item number eight. Um the consent agenda for treasant. First item, the meeting minutes approval for the se uh September 17th meeting. Any changes or adjustments? Uh if not, I'll kick it over to Mr. Nurero for the treasur report. >> You were probably with the September financials. I was just going to highlight going back to the property taxes that Dr. discussed. Um House Bill 96 was the state budget that was passed back in the summer. Um there's three veto land items that the governor vetoed before he signed it that address property taxes. Now the Senate on October 1st joined the house and overturned one of them essentially that eliminated certain levy types which are your fixed sum

019which is emergencies your uh substitute levies and I think income tax those different type of leies. We also have the emergency. So when ours expires in a few years, we'll have to discuss different options what we have available to us to renew that we generate roughly $1.7 million. So that we bake into our budget if we obviously can't renew it. Um other two items were um expanded the county budget commission um pretty much given the authority that the budget commission can reduce our village on their own if they feel like we don't need the money. So that's one thing to keep an eye on. The house talked about acting on that veto line item by the end of October and also another item was revising the 214 calculation. Now they eliminated those fixes those emergencies

020but they also want to add it to the 214 which would also adjust how much we currently collect. So those are two items I will be paying close attention to. I'll keep you guys updated. And two other separate bills that'll affect property taxes is House Bill 186 which is an inflation cap credit, which pretty much goes back to when we did our reevaluation back in 2023 that we got an increase because we're 204 calculation, but pretty much goes back and takes some of that increase we got away. So over a three-year period, it was close around $2 million. So something to pay attention to. And then House Bill 335, it caps your inside. So when certain levies are passed, you don't get growth on those. effect of old law house 920 that reduced your millage

021based on how much you were expected by uh your construction but you do have inside mills that you did see that growth. So this bill will also cap that growth. So they are attacking property tax at all angles. So still a lot of stuff in the air but a lot of you guys pay attention to. So like Dr. said it was just talk to legislators about what we can't do to help schools, but a lot's coming down the state debt. We don't know. >> Yeah. So, the way I understood that as far as capping the the tax rate on it, it that has nothing to do so property value may appreciate, you know, to infinity, right? You could sell your home for an enormous profit from where you bought it from, but they're going to

022cap the amount of tax you want even though you see your home price continue to climb. >> Yeah, a lot goes into the different mill, but yeah, the millage for the inside that we get is roughly 5.1, >> right? What I'm getting at is you will so x home 30 years ago $100,000. Fast forward 30 years, x home is now $500,000. property tax was held off and capped by this current with what you just said. It's capped at a at a $200,000 value. Correct. We can get right and from previous discussions with you. I think we're operating right now. We voted at a 16.9 floor or we have voted at 16.9, right? And if they >> after adjustments, we're at 16.9 bill floor. So, uh, well, we're writing off a 20 mil floor for it

023because the state requires property taxes to pay 20 mills, but we as a community only voted in 16.9. So, we're actually being held to the state standards currently. And if they go away from if they reduce or eliminate that 20 mil floor, essentially the community would have to put on 3.1 mil levy to just get us back to where we were. >> Correct. essentially >> if they if they eliminated the floor. So >> yeah, if they eliminated >> based on our levy options we have available, if they kept the floor, we would have to probably pass a a three uh a formal levy to see one additional bill right now. >> So the first three the first 3.1 right now we have um we essentially got a reappraisal in 23. >> Correct. >> So it's

024it's a big deal and it's going to be an issue and we all are kind of being held I won't say hostage, but like with this with whatever the state decides to do. I mean, it's going to be important for everybody to talk to legislators and just know like said we all realize that property tax related, but just what they're doing, how it impacts schools and your local police and fire and all that stuff here. Um, one thing the effective was 2023 was 16.9. Uh, this past year we approved um valuations, but they screw up the calculation. So when I talked to them, they said our effective mill is back around 20. So, but we didn't receive like that like that bump. We still received the same amount year before. So I still have to

025talk with them, see where they have our effective millage at. They have it at around 20. So right now we're at the four. Um, but that two years ago reevaluation they had us at 16.9. So as we get to that year where our levy will expire, we'll have to see where I guess where effective millillage is to see how much what our options are. So I said two of those bills are not they haven't been passed or anything. They're just been introduced. So they have they introduce and then they have discussions and they add changes to it all that stuff. So there's still a lot to go with those two but see things seem to be quick. So at least wanted to get under any talking any utility in reaching out to other school districts

026and essentially as a cohort let's just an example would be the tri county area or us in Columbia in that county saying like hey we would like to meet with our state reps are just to go over what so we I mean I know our local has hosted the house the reps from >> I know I know but with with what's going on to essentially come down again go over this talk to them see >> so we sent me today at the county they talked about doing that again But it didn't get it wasn't very helpful. Like state legislator, they keep saying what they're hearing is probably tax relief. So they really weren't I guess listen to the school's concerns that last time that happened. Um so they're going to keep trying to talk to

027them. So that's why I said the board. >> So one one other side of the attack is not just not just dealing with property tax, right? So what about removing restrictions on public schools to allow similar let us have more degrees of freedom to work the numbers the same way the parochial schools do. Right? So, that's another angle of legislation we can work at to say how can we start to make changes locally to each one of our districts whether it's you know the voucher system that's still at play for the parochial schools. Can we have access to that as well? Like there's other avenues, right? But if we can get more degree of freedom to work with it, we can explore more options even if we're dealing with property tax issues, which is why

028I think maybe a sit down with them if they'd be willing to do it. Obviously, not just us, it probably better for other schools there to talk to them. So, if you guys feel if you guys want to reach out to the other schools in the area, see if that's something be interested in doing. Thoughts? Anybody else on that? It's going to be an issue for a lot of schools. >> Yeah, that's 100 public schools be affected if that's so last year um Mr. Bagwell, myself, Mr. Nero met with local legislators and it wasn't as dire. So last year there's two buckets, right? One is local funding, one is student aids and substitute aids or substitute custodians. Um we are hiring Holly Bennett for a custodial assistant and great job Dean. I know working and

029interviewing and getting a lot of candidates to to fill our custodial needs. Um, so you can see there's se several students that or several individuals that are substituting as aid and a custodian. So that's why they're on there twice, doing two different roles. Um, looking at item F, uh, motion to revise the following supplemental. So this individual was getting a 6 and a half% per the contract and now they're volunteering and later in the agenda, the person that was volunteering is now picking up. So they just swapped on compensation um, uh, per the athletic director. And then looking at G, motion will approve the following supplemental contracts. Um there's a there's a host of individuals from cheer to to wrestling, a lot of our winter sports um moving forward with with coaching and looking at

030the rest of this in extended day. Looking at um item H, motion to approve the following personnel dinner pay. So over the course of the last few years, we've increased um for both the classified staff and um certified staff with their compensation. And there was an area in there that was dinner pay that's not in any agreement or any of that. So when we took up those individuals that regularly sign up for dinner pay, we didn't look at the uh or the regular pay, we didn't look at the dinner pay. So, normally dinner pay is always around $2 more to get people to work the Saturday night or the team fees and stuff like that. So, that was as as we go through this motion is simply taking on whoever picks it up. So, it

031could be Rose um it could be Lori. I I talked to both of them at the time. So, what we said is well your pay is different depending on you know how many years they've been here and so forth. So, what we said it is that their hourly rate plus $2. So in the future we don't have to go through and remember to increase it because typically we increase the hourly rates. So that's what this motion is doing for for our awesome um custod or cafeteria. Looking at item I motion to approve the following adjustments to a new hire. So Elizabeth Curry is returning to us um and helping out at the match driving. Those are our items. I just have actually just one question going back to the um substitute aids and stuff. I

032know last year when we didn't have titles in the elementary, we had some of the high schoolers go over on their free time. Are we continuing that to help the elementary and the middle school? >> We actually talked about that today u with theme in a little workbased learning. um we're probably going to go down that road and we think it will actually help a lot of other avenues as well, not only the students and the needs, but can help with the high school report card a little bit. So, we just had that conversation today. So, more to come with that. I don't know what it looks like and sounds like >> um because with with having kids, there has to be like work agreements and stuff like that. So, I'll get back to you.

033>> Okay. >> Any other questions? Okay, Tyler makes a motion for the consent agenda. >> Second. >> Elizabeth seconds. All in favor? >> Opposed. >> The consent agenda items carry. >> On to item number nine, the traers regular agenda. >> Excuse me. So yeah, just thought later. >> So we did a large slug of you want to review anything? I'll move it. Thank you. Very generous. >> Um, so Jack makes the motion. >> I'll second. >> Tyler seconds. All in favor? >> Opposed? That motion carries. Uh, item number 10, the superintendent's regular agenda. Item A is a Columbia County ESC contract. >> Yes. So, part of the the law is um private schools can receive title dollars. So, federal public dollars. So, we work with St. Paul. So some of our dollars go to St.

034Paul's for our kids that are in St. Paul's. St. Paul's doesn't have title services. So they just like we work with the ESC, they work with the Columbia ESC. So this is a contract with them so they can use our title dollars for the students that need >> motion for that agenda item. >> I'll move. >> Carrie moves. >> Uh Tyler seconds. All in favor? I >> oppose. That motion carries. Item B, plan to make up hours. Motion to Delta resolution to make up school hours if necessary. >> Yeah, if you if you can recall, every year we do this around this time. This is just by law you have to get it done. Um, we're going to do it next year in July. Um, by law it's you have to get it done within

035a certain time of school. So this is just if you go beyond a certain number of days and you can do online instruction, but we are way above the minimum which you'll see here in a little bit of um of hours for making up school and and actually after 5 days and we actually go online and provide instruction anyway. So this is just a resolution that I have to upload to state that we do have a plan. >> I'll second. Elizabeth uh Terry seconds. All in favor? >> Opposed? That motion carries. Item C was 2526 school calendar revision. Yeah. So if you look at the on page uh page 10, table one and table two. So where there was a typo with the amount of hours students are here. So instead of 6 and a

036half, which is 6.5 hours, students are actually here 6.42 hours. So 6 hours and 25 minutes, not 6 hours and 30 minutes. So that threw off all the math. So the math wasn't mapping when we added it all up and had to submit it to the state for attendance purposes and then we had flagged and we were like, why did we get how did this come off? So it was a simple typo when we were typing the note. So we corrected it. Our EMS coordinator went through and had to correct it all. So this is just simple a board resolution to state no there's no change in the calendar we're just fixing that typo so we could submit it but again we are still 29 days over in elementary school and 17 days over state

037minimum in the middle school max >> is one second >> why are we still purposely going over >> so there was a min so back in years ago there wasn't a minimum and then there were state minimums that have been increasing over time. >> Yeah. >> It used to be days used it used to be 170 teachers 176 180 amount of school days that you worked and then the state converted it to hours. So >> Yeah. Yeah. So we've always been like 176 175. There was a year 173 174 just depending on the calendar. So we're always around that time frame. Um it's just in the practice. Is that just because the other schools require higher like middle school high school requires more days and we're just sinking three schools or >> it's probably the

038teacher I mean teacher contract so many days it's still >> yeah so we're just talking about cost right and I realize it's serving educational purpose as well a month so 29 days >> a month over >> because the hour does it cost to run the schools I know we stay part time during the Right. But capacity for a month over. >> Yeah. >> Right. Well, you got what's a day considered an hour? >> That's the other >> Well, that's what I was asking. So, you said you said you said >> Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So, you're over that. >> And there is legislation. Um it it kind of died on the vine recently with the property tax conversation which has been really taking a lot of the legislator's time, but there was a push

039to increase minimum hours um because you know some schools won't work that 173 or 171. So um just know that that's out there as well. But we're we're good right now. >> No, I I realize we're well past the minimum. It was me thinking more on the efficiency side of things. So >> that's you're saying the amount of hours we're over >> converts to 29 days extra in >> correct >> before we have to make up hours. >> So I guess the flip side of that the question is >> we're not 29 days excess over the 29 days excess. >> Yeah. >> So we have a month of buffer instead of like 12 days of buffer >> before we would have to make a my understanding is correct. Correct. Okay. >> I think the other

040side of question is without those 29 days, will we get all the education that we need for the state? >> Right. So, does the other question have to and again this is asking a big picture question. Do we need to be looking at instructional hours in a more efficient timeline to reduce overall cost for being in school? I mean, we're talking a month over. >> Well, that's not good shape. Like I said, designed around teacher contract days, custodial contract days, bus driver contract days. So if you reduce other reasons why >> yeah a lot of schools are still designed out like the old models based on student days and it's 178 and if you miss 5 days and beyond the five it's still similar. Let me rephrase it then. Should we be looking at an

041economization plan, >> especially with everything we just discussed previously with >> I mean all options are Yeah, >> but that would have to be that would have to be at the time of negotiation or anything. I I realize it, but if all of a sudden we're saying, "Hey, we don't have if the floor falls out from the property tax and everything else, be nice to have a couple backup plans already evaluated." Making cuts, >> correct? Everybody a little >> Yeah. >> I'm I'm not saying we have to do it. I'm saying we should maybe look at it. I know you guys have a lot of I'm just throwing something out there right now. So will be available. >> Maybe first step is talk to some of our schools and see what their calendar looks like.

042They're doing some number of days. >> Yeah. And I think I would reach out to our local leadership here with our teachers association say hey have you ever heard like what's this look like and sound like start just having that conversation with our SRA. >> Yeah. Don't get I realize that's a huge thing to begin to begin to look at. Obviously we need teachers, all educators, principles involved with that. saying we need to move mountains with it. I'm just saying if we're really talking about big contingency plans, cuts or things like that. Can we make up the difference by streamlining the educational by shrinking some school? Like how much does it cost per day to run full capacity? You see what I'm getting at? So, >> oh yeah, like I said, that that really your

043biggest cost is salary benefits which is 80% your budget. So, it's really negotiating with unions. >> Yeah. But there's that. There's still monetary overhead like per day by just running a facility. >> Yeah, true. >> I said but but your biggest savings are going to be in salary benefits. That's going to have your biggest impact on your budget. >> So said everything needs to be looked at. I'm saying but that's where you're going to see your biggest savings. >> I'm not discou that would be >> not looking at it financially though, but how would it impact the kids? We used to do we used to do every other day compared. >> I'm not not I'm not claiming one is better than the other. I'm just saying >> there were differences. Right. >> Right. >> Yeah.
