Before I bring the students up, I just wanted to kind of recap because last year I talked a lot about um what we were doing to perfect what we were doing to kind of increase achievement opportunities for students at the school. And so if you'll go two slides, one more. So, these are all of the college courses that we're offering this school year um at our campus through our teachers to our students. Uh these classes are very well populated, which is really exciting. Um and students have the opportunity to earn 53 college credits through SWAT from our teachers at our school if they choose to take um all of those courses. So, really excited about that. The teachers are excited about
004it. The students are excited about it. Any if you have questions about some of those courses, I'm sure some of these students are enrolled in them. Does anyone have questions about the college course options? Just really exciting. Our teachers have worked really, really hard to get their sylli done. They've had lots of meetings with SWAT. We go back Friday afternoon. And so we are really happy to kind of regain some more of that partnership with SWAK, which is good. Okay, come on.

She's back in Coquille for another stint. We're really lucky to have her at CVE. Um, she knows a lot of teachers already. You know, she's been at CVE before and she might actually be in one of her old classrooms. Um, so she's our resource room teacher. She teaches second through sixth grade and we started our pullout services this week. And I'll turn it over to Mrs. Ramsey. >> Oh, thank you very much. >> Um, I am very delighted to be here. I'm very thankful that I'm given the opportunity to go back to Coke. You guys, I really missed you guys >> and Coil means a lot to

Thank you. [Applause] >> Good evening. Um I'd like to introduce Susanna Bitz. Hasn't been in education a long whole long time, but she's been in the Safeway. um many years. So if um you recognize her face, that's probably from Safeway. So she is the food service assistant and her first date was July 24th. So uh today she got she got thrown in between two schools. We were low on uh cooks and she had to juggle both. So anyway, um but do you have any questions for Susanna? >> How was the juggling? >> It was good. Good. Good. >> I'm a local
016coilian. I am happy to be here and I'm excited to have a long career working with the school district. >> Welcome. >> Thank you. [Applause] >> Is that it? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Um we will now move on to 4.0 board goal. All students feel welcome in coil. And looks like we have Miss May and the Dixons are Well, there's nothing quite like the fresh start of a new school year. Um, there's so much excitement, joy, and new opportunities for students to learn and thrive. Each year and every day is a fresh start to help all students feel welcome um within the Cokeill School District. So, beginning in the spring, um we host our roundup um for our incoming preK and kindergarten students. This last spring, we were able to have Mrs. Sinko join
017us at Lincoln to represent Winterlakes Elementary as an alternative option. Um staff were present um for families to meet. Classrooms were open for them to visit. Um and it was a good time for all. Um families were able to ask and a lot of questions and get those answered. Um we also in the springtime provide opportunities for um students to visit their next classroom. So starting in daycare um students that are going to enter into preK get to go visit those classrooms. And then the same for our prek students and our Head Start students, they get to go visit in a kindergarten classroom. So, it just kind of eases those um questions that kids might have of what it might look like. In August, um prior to the school year starting, Mr. Martin um and
018Kelsey Martin, no relation, um they they ran a kindergarten launch program, which was a half-day program. Um it went for eight days, um two weeks, four days each. um half-day program and it's really focused on um building relationships with um staff, building relationships with friends, um helping students navigate the school building, um and then just kind of getting a little taste for what it what a classroom looks like. Um, again, before school started, we had these family conversations for every prek and kindergarten uh family to come in and meet their child's teacher. Um, it's a one-on-one setting and it's really a time that staff can honor parents as expertise on their child and we set up those um relationships from the very start. So that's a a nice way to welcome students. We have our
019staggered start at the beginning of the year. So each grade level has a special day that they get to start. Um we get lots of families that come in those first day of school photos. Um that that first moment that they get to drop off in the cafeteria and it um allows for a little bit more space and more staff to be hands-on helping guide and direct families. Two of our most popular events that we have during the school year is our fall festival, which will be coming up in October, and then our winter concert. And again, these are times that we can connect with our family and our community in a positive way. We're still going. Um, we have our character trait assemblies and our lion paw assemblies. So, our character traits, um, we
020focus on a specific trait for a month at a time and then students are nominated and families are invited. Um, and so we have an assembly where they can come in and, uh, students get called to the front and we talk a little bit about each student and they get a little certificate. Um, and so every student gets nominated at some point throughout the year. um our lion paw assemblies is part of a bigger um positive behavior intervention system that we have. Um but it's like a raffle style drawing um and they end up earning prizes for safe, respectful, and responsible behavior, which is great. And then every day at Lincoln, working with such young children, um, is an opportunity to celebrate growth. Whether that's kids learning how to go across the monkey bars or
021tying their shoes or being able to count to 100. Uh, our young children are learning every single day and we get to celebrate them um and encourage them to keep learning at their own pace. One more. Um, and then really helping students feel welcome really comes down to the small daily things that we do every single day. Um, we see you, we know you, we value you, um, we miss you when you're gone, and we're so happy to see you every single day. Um, so that's a little bit about Lincoln and how we help students feel welcome. If we go to the next slide, um we have Winterl Lakes Elementary, a wonderful learning environment and they do a lot of things too to help their families and students feel seen and valued. Um they have
022this morning routine that they do where they gather in the cafeteria. They say the pledge of allegiance. They're singing some songs together. They have monthly family events that they put on. Winter Lakes Elementary is known for their campus tours. Um, anytime families have questions, um, they welcome them in, take them around. Um, we did the combined prek roundup. Um, and it is definitely a smaller environment setting where everybody is known. Next for Coil Valley Elementary. So very first thing we're really focusing on this year is getting admin even out in front. So as you see Miss Rice out there greeting kids to come in, making sure that they feel safe, that they're welcome, telling them we're glad you're here today. If we know they've been gone, that we've missed them, just to kind of encourage
023that in the beginning. And as you see the lovely office staff in the front, the kids um even as they go by will stop and wave. You got Mrs. Chavez there, Miss A, um, who's our counselor, nurse Brandy, and then Miss Holly. So, they do a great job of helping us all make the students feel welcome. And then we start right off on the first and second day with PBIS stations to help students kind of feel safe. And then they get some input as they're walking around the building of how would you be safe or respectful or responsible at the bathroom, out at the playground, in the cafeteria. So they get to add into that as well even though it's teacher led. So it's kind of fun that they get to share with their peers
024what they think is safe, respectful, and responsible. So we do that around the building. The biggest thing in our building too is the eagle assembly. We focus on the same character traits of safe, respectful, and responsible. So as you see all the eagle wings on the floor. We do it by grade level. So second, third did it together, do the assembly together, and then there's prizes that they can win. So they earn those through out the weeks and we do that about every se six weeks. Um and then they just draw a name and the student gets to come down and pick a prize which is pretty fun. We also started last year and will continue through this year is recognizing um good attendance. Um we hope that it sends that message that we're excited
025that they're there and we want them there. Um, so we did a March Madness bracket during March Madness and we had over 90% by all grade levels with that which was pretty amazing. So we also do monthly up there. It has the Eagles um have awesome attendance and so we do some competitions by grade level as well to go against each other. And then some of the prizes have been the copycat crumble cookie that Miss Lori makes which are pretty wonderful. We bring in OMSI. This will this actually when we do this year will be the third year. Um, First Community Credit Union has helped us with that and the students love that because they get to participate. They get to watch the experiments going on and in the bottom it has the little tray
026there. They probably have 40 different ones in the library setup that every student gets to go in and put some hands on which they love and then they get to learn. um engaging our school community. We really like to bridge that gap from home into our school environment. So we do open house, Dr. Seuss night, the winter music program, grandparents day, our talent show, which is pretty amazing if you haven't been. Um and then the big carnival that's run by PTK is um at the building as well. And so you'll see some community members. We have grandparents there, um the sheriff, and then we have community members that were doing face painting as well. Then the last um at the end we had the summer plus program which we had about 50 students um attend
027and they got to do some al pellets and break it apart and find all the little bones in there. And then we had Miss Sierra who was one of the drivers that would help pick up the students through there. And then they got to partnership with the library in there to do some extra activities. And at the Coil Junior Senior High, um some of the things we do to help students feel welcome, uh if you saw on the first slide, uh that was on a freshman orientation. Uh it's a bouncy house. Um, I don't know who wouldn't feel welcome coming to school on their first day for with a bouncy house. Um, but kids had had a good time doing that. And then we also feature a slow start beginning uh rolling into the year.
028Uh it's dedicating that first day for seventh, eighth, and ninth graders. Uh to give them that ease of access to the grounds, to the campuses just to, you know, uh delay some of those anxiety, fear, tension, apprehension, um as they're coming on campus for the first time. Uh that's gone really well. The the two falls I've been there. So, um it's a good it's a good way for them to assimilate in and and get the feel or the vibe. And then for seventh and eighth graders, we all uh one of the ways that we help them feel welcome uh whether they're new uh when they come over from CD and or if they're new to the district, we'll do new student uh mentor peer tours uh just to help them get the lay of the
029land. Those are the fun ones I like to watch because there's nothing like an eighth grader helping a seventh grader and that eighth grader feels like they're a high schooler, they're an adult, you know, they're giving the tour and and helping them along um to learn the campus, to learn where everything is. It is a big there's a lot of real estate at Kokale High School. So, it can be intimidating. So, these facets uh really lend to that uh helping with that u anxiety and getting over that that first day hump, first week hump. And then another uh attribute that we have at the high school that I get a kick out of and I I love to watch is our devil connections. Uh we have uh high school uh mentors uh like in the
030red jack uh red uh t-shirts. Um they will work with uh new students uh mentor students help them you know navigate do things around the campus uh they're they're involved with activities just to help bridge that gap again uh to make them feel welcome kid one of the things I love I was in a math class uh yesterday kids love to learn from kids and so especially in those the aspects of welcoming and bringing them in so that's been a good success for us which uh Mr. award has really expanded on and done a great job. Our one of our science teachers who runs that. We also have an achievement arcade at uh the high school. I know it sounds silly, but uh at the achievement arcade, we have a Pac-Man video game, a hoop
031shoot, and a dart board. And it's not a it's a magnetic dart board, but uh students uh can uh receive recognition uh for things they do around the building. They get a little business card. It's an achievement card and they bring it in as you see the gentleman on the left there and they'll redeem them for treats, goodies, uh or they can have some game time uh when it's appropriate, not out of class, uh to uh redeem those cards and and have a little bit of fun. And so that's just those are some of the ways uh at Cocoa High School with our wonderful staff as you see Miss Ye there with a with a group um enjoying the day. Um we just believe in connection. uh if you could connect with a kid, you
032you can do a lot of things and a and a comforted kid, a happy kid's a good learner. So, that's one of the things that we want to focus on. Um I'd also like to speak for uh Winter Lakes. Um at the Winter Lakes campus because of its quaint setting, uh intimate, you might say, uh the attributes there lend themselves to be a very welcoming environment as well. Um I know the staff and the students are close-knit. um a lot of time spent with each other in in that intimate setting and then they're building that bond, creating that that connection, that community- like atmosphere and then of course their their famed flexible approach to learning. Um that that does uh help students feel welcome there as well. And that's it for us. Thank you. [Applause]
033Okay, we'll turn the time over to Tanya Sinko for division 22 presentation. >> Good evening um school board um members. I'm really delighted to present the division 22 standards report this year. Um, as you might recall, under the Oregon administrative rules, under a specific chapter that's devoted to education, there is a particular portion called division 22. And these standards that are presented in division 22 that all districts in the state are expected to comply with cover a lot of different areas that leave a student with a comprehensive, well-rounded education. And some of those include curriculum, instruction, district policies, district performance, accountability, and human resources. So last year, we almost had a complete A+. We we almost aced all of the division 22 standards, but we found ourselves having to honestly report that we really weren't
034quite miss meeting the mark of 30 minutes every day of PE at grades K through five. Grades six and above, it's a different metric. It's 30 minutes per day average, but not per day, per week. So, we had some conversations with OD and our partners there. Um, and we came up with some different interventions that we could do to make sure that we were in compliance this last school year. And so, I'm happy to report that the interventions that were suggested and collaboratively decided for CVE for Lincoln um have allowed us to meet that 30 minutes per day for our K to5 students. So, we are fully in compliance um for our 24-25 school year. Um as required by OD, you will find that we have already posted our report to the public. It's a
035it's a little bit more um friendly of a report and language. It's a little bit different than what we report to OD, but part of our requirement is that we must post that. And Julie was very quick to get that posted in our at our district website under our OD reporting. So, we do have that public piece posted. Um, and part of our charge is to allow for any comments or questions to be presented before we submit our report to OD that's due by the 1st of November. Does the board have any questions at the present time? Julie, can you send us a copy of the report that was submitted that's on there? >> Yes, it's it is available online and if the board would like a copy of what I will then report to
036OD because it's a little bit different, I'm more than delighted to provide that for you. Um I will I will say that we did um in our pre-ervice have the opportunity to talk about some of the additional charges that we have in the area of curriculum um specifically surrounding the area of substance misuse prevention. um and that education is starting at grade four now. And so our teachers have been apprised that these are things that the state is going to expect us to um be in compliance with. And so we're already undertaking how we're going to fold those lessons in um at the particular grade levels as directed by OD. Right. Thank you. >> Thank you. Thank you. Okay. Okay, we'll move on to our school and program written reports. Um, any questions for uh
037for Tiffany Clapper for Winter Lakes High School? I've heard you've increased your numbers quite a bit this last week. >> Yeah, we enrolled kids in a week. >> Awesome. That's super exciting. >> That is really exciting. Good. I'm so glad to hear that. That's fantastic. >> Thank you. >> Um uh any questions for Tanya concerning Winter Lakes Elementary or her, uh role as curriculum director? Uh you said we didn't we didn't get the youth development department grants. Have we gotten those in the past? >> We have we have had them. We have them in place when I first came. Um the second year of that and we did not have a bite grant the next two years. Um and it was it was extremely competitive. I think they said they had 86 applicants for one
038particular grant and they awarded something like 18. Um and so I have seen our scores for some of those and in many areas we were at 100% but there must have been more districts that had more 100% than we did. So as as Mrs. Sper would say who's no longer here in Lincoln. >> Better luck next time. Going to try again. >> Okay. >> Going to try again. >> I have a question. >> Maybe next time. >> So, you have K1 at link at Winter Lakes Elementary now. >> We do. >> Um enrollment, >> we have 10 at the present time who are enrolled. We have a number that is pending. We have two who are kindergarten at the present time and the remainder who are grade one and Alex Gilbert incredibly enthusiastic and amazing
039is working with the staff. Mrs. Green and getting support to work with those young students. >> So Mrs. Fer said numbers were looking good. How about Winter Lakes Elementary numbers? >> 112. to start the school year. Um, and so my understanding was that in the previous year we were more this is now you know I think closer to 90 was the starting number and so with us starting at 112 we were feeling really happy about that. Um, and in the winter community Mrs. would also um concur that our population kind of starts slowly and it tends to build as the year goes along and so I wouldn't be surprised for us to continue to add in. >> Any other questions? >> Okay. Um any questions for um Albert Dixon for the junior high for the
040Cokeill Junior High? Same thing, Albert. Are are numbers enrollment most of your kids come back >> roll over from sixth grade? >> Yes. Okay. >> Yeah. So, I mean we have is a it's a good contingent. Um I mean I mean always in the morning I drop off and everything as I did the other day. Of course I'm on the spot. Yeah. That's a good number. >> About 65 75 a class >> 60. >> Yeah. So I was going to say one of those classes was pretty small. >> Yeah. 73 group. >> Yeah. >> Okay. So, >> same thing. You'll continue to enroll. >> Yep. Any other questions? Okay, let's move on to the high school, the Killil High School. Um, with Miss Ye. Any questions for her? I'd like to thank you for giving
041our our senior class our class reunion a walk through the school. >> That was fun. >> That was great. Everybody really enjoyed that. Appreciate it. >> I'll just say this from my personal experience. I've heard super positive things from my kids about some of those new classes that are they're just excited and they think it's fun. So, >> I love to hear glad to hear that. >> Any other questions? Okay, let's move on to CBE. Any questions for Armando Ruiz? >> We're at about 359 students right now and um continuing to grow. I think our uh fifth graders are doing really well with the transition and having, you know, multiple teachers for their core subjects. Um they're out of the hall pretty quick now. And so it took them less than a week and they're
042getting to class on time. They're not tardy. They're um you know, teachers are greeting them out in the hall. They're they're positive and um the schedule worked out really well. Um we're up about 24 students from last year or so. And um I told Mr. Gallagher, our goal is to get to least 75 this year cuz we want to shoot really high. And so um we're hoping to keep them going, kids. We're hoping the word gets around that, you know, Coil Valley is the place to be. Um for especially our fifth and sixth graders um who are getting that, you know, specialized instruction. Um I spent some time today in our enrichment classes, which is we have four year long classes for um sixth graders. Fifth graders have two different options. They take um band
043require for the year or they can take yearbook for leadership. A lot of our sixth graders took yearbook in leadership. They like 14 students in each class. We have about 50 students in band choir a little bit over. And then we have four classes that are going to be quarterly for nine weeks and they're going to go through creative writing, STEM, Spanish, and um one other class Spanish. Thank you. Um so they have four teachers that they go through and they're going to go through all the classes. So they get nine weeks of it and they'll rotate. And so um kids are really excited to start that on Monday and that's going really well and we're just excited for new year c everyone's being positive. Any other questions? I'll say the only negative thing I've

Um board members, if any of you would be interested in being on any of those committees, as long as there's only three of you, you're more than welcome to take part in that. We have teachers that are having an opportunity to do their professional development time through Flip PD to be on these committees as well. so they can do some research to try to support.
