Give me a second. I just got pulled up here. Made one correspondence. Student card for World War II veteran. >> What's that? >> Okay. And I'm going to let Mr. Lustig speak to that. >> Yes, thank you very much. Um, uh, Mr. Lady, uh, several months ago, Mr. Alban, I believe you, sir, uh, arranged to have, uh, a presentation by some students of Mr. Heiser's American history class. And I found that to be extremely interesting. And I really appreciated what these students had to say. uh they spoke of patriotism and appreciation for the sacrifice
004of uh military personnel in uh conflicts that that America has gone through. And uh interestingly uh many of you know that I'm retired uh military vet and I was recruited by a local organization uh to uh volunteer with them to visit vets who are in hospice. and I've been doing that for about five years. It's been very rewarding to me uh to be able to help these vets in their time of need. Uh interestingly, uh one of my longest um tours of duty related to a a World War II vet, Mr. Richard Scites uh of Gettysburg, who uh was born in October 20, excuse me, October 1925. here in Adams County. Uh actually, as I got to know this this vet, um my farm is uh almost adjacent to where he grew up at, uh
005which would be within the confines of Upper Adam School District. Now, uh he described uh his life uh he lived on a small farm uh near Twin Bridges on Old Route 15 up that way and uh attended a one room schoolhouse which uh I was happy to be able to uh make some uh calls and ask some questions and it still exists. It's been incorporated into a larger house, but he was happy to know that that that schoolhouse still existed. He walked about uh at least a mile and a half and might have been more like two miles each each way to get to school. And so it was fascinating to learn more about him. Uh he was um of course of draft age in World War II and decided that his place should be
006uh with the with the Army Airore, now the US um Air Force of course. and he became a tail gunner on a B-24 Liberator bomber, 4ine bomber uh and had 27 missions uh over Germany and Germany's allies uh which uh were amazing to hear him talk about that. Uh I know quite a bit about World War II and I knew that he what he was telling me, you know, was was true and accurate. He had not lost any um accuracy in that. And so uh I contacted Mr. Heiser and asked if uh some of his students wouldn't like to uh write um birthday cards because Mr. Sites's birthday was coming up on October 19th. Okay. And so I was so pleased when uh a number of students indeed did uh take the time to number
007one create a card and then write car uh letters of encouragement to this wonderful vet. And uh here would be an example of one of one of the cards. Uh I xeroxed off the the interior part of it. Uh this so I'd like to read this if I could. Uh and I presented this uh directly to Mr. Sites and his daughter Susan and uh they were very very wellreceived. This I'll just read this one on the left hand side of the card. It actually quotes a a verse from the Bible Bible numbers 6:24-26. The Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord make his face to shine on you and be gracious to you. The Lord turn his face upon you and give you peace. Dear Mr. Sites, the class of 2027 at Biglerville High
008School would like to thank you for your service and say happy early birthday. We have heard about you and your beautiful family and your successful career. You have done so much for your community and your country. We hope that you are in high spirits and are praying for you. Thank you. Love Bigler High School class of 2027 president. Uh I cannot tell you how well receive how much that those cards meant to this vet. uh and I presented them to him and to his daughter, the caregiver, uh in um late September and he just missed his 100th birthday. Uh he missed it by 18 days. >> Uh but uh I assure you uh it was a it was a great joy and privilege for me to be able to become his friend and uh assist
009him during that hard time. And uh I really thank Mr. Mr. Heiser and Mr. Albin and the students for stepping forward to help in this important way. Really appreciate it. >> Thank you, Mr. Lustig. Thank you for your efforts. Senator, >> uh we'll move into reports. Uh LIU report. Uh Dr. Deson, >> good evening. I have attached uh the LIU Dawn's early light report. Just two things to note. There's a presentation on the Lincoln Edge. Uh Lincoln Edge essentially is an an asynchronous online learning service that is available for all the various school districts uh that that some tricky situations. We need kids to pick up some things, but we do have our own service here too, but sometimes it's utilized in a special education situation. Uh two other things to note too are job
010descriptions that were adopted. Uh one's quite the mouthful. The assistant to the executive director for innovative solutions and strategic partnerships. I don't I did you count all the syllables in that Mr. Mustik? I don't know. There's a lot of syllables in that title there. So, and also the director of educational technology. Just some things. And then they have just some of the other business items on that that you can find that that is attached in the uh on our agenda manager. Thank you uh Mr. Lady. Okay. Any questions for Dr. Don Lu? Thank you, sir. Uh, moving on to federal programs. Mr. Alman. >> Thank you, Mr. Lady. Uh, good evening everyone. It seems kind of weird given this report and this it's been shy of two years since I've been able to give one
011of these uh reports standing here again. So, it's nice to be back in the room. Uh, not too much going on with federal programs right now. Uh, we just some uh compliance reporting. So, one is that maintenance of effort. If you've been on the board for a while, you've heard that each year. It's a a calculation the state does to make sure that we're spending the money that they give us uh for federal. So uh we don't have a problem with that each year, but we do um submit for that and wait for that compliance letter to come through from the state. Uh the second one is uh comparabil comparability or comparability reports. Again, this does not affect us a whole lot. This is for larger school districts that might have say five elementaryaries, two
012middle, and a high school. and you have several title one buildings, you want to make sure that there the equity is there among like all the elementary schools at for the title one. So, we're not favoring one particular building versus another. That's a federal compliance measure. Uh we get waved from that. We still have a report to fill out, but we we only have one elementary and we are only title one building, so we don't have anything to compare it to. So, it is what it is. Uh so, in our case, it's a easier report to fill out. we get a waiver for that. Uh the last thing on my report is on September 30th, I was uh attended the capital area intermediate unit uh webinar on the latest updates for federal programs uh which
013the as you know the federal government is doesn't have a budget right now and the state doesn't have a budget right now so it was pretty quiet. Uh but we uh got some updates here and there from the the egrant side of things. Uh, and we'll have another one of those come February, I would imagine, with a lot more information for the upcoming grant season next year. So, >> any questions for Mr. Alvin? >> Thank you, sir. >> Um, Cumberland Perry. Uh, Susan, >> uh, just a short summary. Um, October 17th has passed and that's the 2-year anniversary of the fuel leak up at Cumberland Perry. Um the statute of limitations has expired on that. Um so when Mr. Wolf is here next month in November, um normally he comes down once a year to
014speak to the board and usually invites at least two students from the school to speak that are Cumberland Perry students. And he'll be available to uh give you some more information in terms of the fuel link and what's been done. Um, also the construction has started up there. Um, I know they've moved the main entrance to a different location and there's a lot of ground pushing going on. So, we'll wait to hear from him next month. >> We do have pictures of Mrs. They were supposed to be shown tonight, but because of our executive session, so next month, we want to get them up and rolling there. So, Mrs. Cross has her hard helmet on and her shovel, so she looks good. So it'll >> be my lasting photo here, I guess. >> Any questions
015for Mrs. Kraussell and Cland Perry? >> Thank you, ma'am. Uh fund advisory, Mrs. Hob. >> Uh not a lot. Uh inner educational foundation board meets on November 3rd and at this point in time, we're gearing up for the giving spree on the 6th. We have um somewhat encouraged our board members to make a donation to Caner funds. We've never come out outright and said that but certainly not mandatory but we are hoping board members might make a donation to Caner funds um or Caner Foundation um at the giving spree. We will be there and forest I believe you're working on some things Dr. Dong. >> Is that right? Okay. I won't steal your thunder then. Okay. Um, and as a board, the Caner Educational Foundation board has set a goal of $20,000 this year. We
016typically take in 15 to 17 and this year we're hoping for 20. So, please all of you help us reach that goal. That's my report. >> Okay. Any questions for Miss Sal? >> Thank you, ma'am. >> Administrative reports. Uh if anyone has anything for any of our administrators that are present. Just looking through the reports. I see there's a lot going on. So I'm just going to I just like to hit all the administrators. So I'm just going to start with Mr. Ker. You got anything you want to say about what you got going on down there? >> Um lots been happening in my report. I talked a little bit about some of the field trips coming are happening now or have happened. Our first grade farm second grade is very much great help this
017week. uh kindergartens at hollow balls depending on the day certain classes. So we are in field trip season certainly right now um in my next report um for next month I'll update we had a race for education on Friday I'll just give you a little we made about $30,000 >> you know how that worked remembers the money kind of rolls in over time so it could even get a little higher >> um from that. So, um, we did we had an excellent day and, uh, kids did a great job raising money. So, thank you to all who donated. >> Thank you, Mr. Kursed. >> Uh, Mr. Kursed, as a follow-up to the school trips at our business. There are schools from the county that come to our business that we absolutely dread. We know they
018are going to be ill-behaved. The chaperons are not going to be great. It's not going to be a fun situation. That is not the case with Upper Adams. I'm slightly biased, but they are all very well behaved, respectful, the teachers, the chapro down to the students. So, yay up. >> Thank you, Mr. Kirsten. >> Mrs. Buckley. >> And if I can add to that, you know, when we go a lot of the different places out, okay, many of the people come up to us and tell us that and that just makes us feel really good. um no matter where we go, they come and say, "Oh my gosh, your kids are so well behaved. You're so well behaved. You're so well behaved." And so we actually tell those kids all the time like, "This is
019why you're going out in public. This is this is great. You've been praised." So I just want to reiterate that that does happen quite often that people come up to us when we're >> and I'm not making it up when I say there are school districts that we absolutely dread and Upper Adams is not one of them. >> Oh, thank you. Um, so we are field trips of the one room fil one room schoolhouse. We take our students to a one room schoolhouse as well. Um, they're going this week and last week they went to Mud College which is in the Miltown area. Um, students dress in the attire. So I'll be putting some pictures out on that as well. Um, we had our soul sisters race today that Kay was involved with as well.
020Their students are running two miles. They work on stamina and they ran their two miles today. Kids did great. Um we have lots of different events such as our race for ed. Now we didn't raise quite 30,000 but we're probably in the 20 I we're still again money is still coming in. We're about 23,000. Um so which is good for us as well. So we have a lot of things happening. In my report, I also put in that we for our race for education, we kind of recognize those kids who do the most laps in each in each classroom. So, you'll see in my report that there's pictures of some of our kids who ran the most laps in our race. And we have our lab there this week, too. So, if anybody wants to
021come visit and see the egg lab, please feel free to come over and see. There's lots of um activities going on in there and experiments and it's it's really a neat program. So yeah, let me know if you want to come visit. >> Any questions for Mrs. Buckley? Thank you, ma'am. >> Mr. Brewer, what's happening in the middle school? >> So, we have a a busy had a busy couple of weeks as well. Um we uh last week spent some time with uh some of the IU folks. Some really good professional development for teachers learning about some vocabulary acquisition and literacy. Um, we have celebrated our Hispanic Heritage Month. We had a really good celebration. The kids bring in authentic cooked um foods from home and we they treat the teachers to a lunchon. Um,
022teachers really appreciate that. It's always a great time. Uh, teachers, I just can't say enough about our teachers and how well and how creative they get with our behavior program. In my report, I mentioned um our mid midquarter celebration. um the things that they put together to motivate the kids and and to reward their behaviors is just second to none. They just do a fantastic job. So, uh this week we're going we're going to celebrate our quarter 4 reward. Um and we also have a trip planned to cover which I'll report on next month. >> Any questions for Mr. Brewer? Thank you, sir. >> Mrs. Grant, you're the next building. >> Yes. Uh we um celebrated homecoming the first weekend of October. Um and congratulations to Ava Hollowal and Sam Dick who were voted king
023and queen. We administered PSATs. We had 62 students take the PSATs at the high school. Um we will be hosting our college application day coming up in the next couple of weeks. And on college application day, um, different schools come in and students can apply and receive acceptances on the spot. Um, which is nice because their fees, their application fees are waved also on that day. Um, and then stations will be set up throughout the learning comments and helping kids work on scholarship applications, resumes, essays. Um, and I hear that we have some apple pie that will be there for the students that participate as well. Um, we wrapped up our Hispanic Heritage Month with our fourth annual Fiesta Friday and I hope that you take a minute to look at the pictures. It was
024a great assembly um hosted by our Latinx club. Um the students performed um cultural dances in between, played some games um with the student body and then the fiesta ended with all students who wanted to come down on the board and participating in dances together. It was a very successful event event and our kids did a great job at putting it together with minimal help from adults. We had four students that we sent to the IU for translator certification. It was interesting. The kids came back and said it was the hardest thing that they've ever done. >> Um the students had to um interact with language on the English side at a very high level. IEP writing what they might encounter interpreting. This was for school-based interpretation. So any kind of technical education language and
025then that had to be interpreted um into Spanish. So it was a great experience for them but it was extremely difficult >> and we also participated in um professional development with the IU on the 13th. Um we worked with teachers on um planning out their lessons and units in a block schedule. I will say I appreciate our teachers have been working hard and digging in and as we um continue working towards our transition to high school. >> Any questions for Mrs. Grant? >> Thank you, ma'am. >> That covers our building administrators. Is there any other administrator that's present that would like to say anything? >> I'll just highlight from mine. Um so we do not have a state budget. >> Yeah. >> Um 100 plus days. Um, but once a budget is passed, it will
026take about two weeks for the district to start re receiving funds. So, once again, we're still trying to hopefully hear some information, but unfortunately, we're not at this point. But, >> are you sleeping, Annie, Shelley? >> Fortunately, we're just taking it one day at a time and we have some other counterparts that are in our same realm um with >> those here with prek program. And also, it's just bus safety week. So, if you're seeing any additional state troopers or police activity in the area, it's because it is bus safety week. So, they might be doing bus safety checks as well at the buildings. >> Uh, Mr. Garza is our new technology person sitting back in the corner. Take over from Josh Cantrell. Hello. >> You have anything you'd like to say or all good?
027>> No, everything's all good. >> Okay. And this is your first official meeting kind of on your own. >> I got Jimmy teaching me but yes. >> Okay. And that will take us to Dr. Desawn through the superintendent report. >> Thank you, Mr. Lady. Good evening, everybody. Uh Mike, just be ready to have about a 10-minute presentation next month. No, you know. So, hey, yeah, really a big shout out and kudos to all of our teachers and administrators for a great professional learning day uh the other week here. I know Mr. Alvin, I had a chance to get out and uh uh walk around and talk with folks and it was just really impressive again like Mr. Brewer said from the instructional strategies that were going on uh to the the teachers talking about block
028uh to some of the other things that were going on at the elementary school. So, uh kudos to our teachers and to our administrators. Um, we do want to welcome Alexis McCarnney, uh, who's in the room with us tonight. I know she has a 15minute presentation ready as a new ELELLL teacher, uh, hopefully tonight here after the vote. So, welcome, Alexis. We appreciate you being here and, uh, we're excited to to have you on board here. So, um, I I I do want to thank the administrators, too, for their their reports. I had a listed a bunch of things down here and I I'll repeat them if I say them all, but I think it's just great to see that, you know, um just how we really work with the whole child and we see
029the the kids uh also having fun exercise and just all the different activities the field trips as well as all the academics. So, I really appreciate all the work you guys are doing and your the teachers are doing uh to really reach uh all of our kids and and again the whole child. So, um, uh, I kudos to to our our our fall sports teams. I, uh, we still have some that are competing and kudos to some that are still out there. Uh, I think soccer still is. I know tennis still is. And, uh, we got a game with football, we could, uh, could be 500 here and and potentially if another team loses, we could make the playoffs. So, uh, kudos to all of our our athletic coaches and the and the fall teams
030and the competition and so forth. Um, I did run with our cross country team Saturday morning. It's the first time I ran an hour on a track. I usually run out in the woods, but I ran an hour on a track and I I my goal, Mrs. Young, was 8 minute miles, which at my age, you know, I'm 70 I'm 79 years old. I was able to maintain 2minut pace uh each lap. So, I I did 30 laps in an hour. So, uh but a couple kids beat me. They did like 35 and 34. So uh so good for them. So but hey since our last board meeting I have had the opportunity to meet with our LIU superintendents twice. Once being around the topic of benefits based education and secondly around the value and
031importance of steam which is science, technology, engineering, art and math. Uh that is embedded within our days and their days and schedule. Uh we had a chance to see this firsthand in a neighboring school district this past Friday. It's extremely impressive and um I hope to potentially take us for a visit uh there someday to see uh uh some of the different things that you know uh around steam and STEM that you know we could aspire to do. We have a lot of great things going on but I think we could bring in a lot of innovation too back in into the district. Uh conversations have begun around the topic of artificial intelligence. I sent the board an email actually out on Friday regarding that it's teachers, our tech department um and administrators discuss its
032pros and cons and potential uses. Uh we'll be exploring this more as we move forward at upcoming committee meetings. Uh on October 8th, our music department provided a dinner and a show uh for those who were able to go. Several food trucks lined our driveway out front as a fundraiser for the band and this was followed by a wonderful early fall performance by our student musicians and singers. Kudos to them all and Mr. Philippi and Mrs. Kelly uh for uh doing such a great job on such a short time having the kids. That's a lot of prep and work getting kids to come together with their voices as well as the instruments. Um Mr. Graham and I met with Mr. Prof and Airark to do a maintenance, custodial, and grounds review. They shared the numerous
033day-to-day task, projects, and work orders that have been completed over the past three months. Uh we appreciate their partnership as they continue to take pride in keeping us UASD buildings and grounds looking sharp and clean. Student faculty and support staff forums were held last week. This was an opportunity for me to have some open-ended conversations uh with representatives from each of those groups uh to discuss our grows and our glows. I also want to thank Mr. Costic uh from Chartwells uh for providing lunch for our students. this is a chance for him and the kids to talk about lunch and preview menus and food items and what do you like, what don't you like, what do you want to see more of and so forth. Uh so that that was pretty neat. Uh we'd also
034like to thank the continued support uh Mrs. Hollow was alluding to this of the Caner Foundation. Uh they have a a big day coming up on November 6th at the giving spree alongside a plethora of other nonprofit organizations. Uh we are hoping to take some of our students to this event to see the giving spree in action and learn about all the organizations that make a difference in Adams County. Uh they also have a chance to see uh the meaningful volunteer opportunities that are out there. Uh um and we're looking at potentially hoping to bring a good number of our student forum students uh from 7 through 12. I'm actually meeting with them tomorrow morning. U Mrs. uh Graham and Mr. Brewer. have arranged for them to come up here and I'm going to be
035talking with them about that opportunity. So, moms and dads, if you're listening, uh please send the permission slips and let them come to the giving spree with us on November 6th. So, uh I think FFA, Mrs. Miller, I talked to her and I think uh there's some students from FFA that uh may be coming also. Uh and I also have to share about one last opportunity. Uh about two weeks ago, uh getting the chance to visit most of our classrooms that are two elementary schools. I got to interact with all uh the students and read a very timely book uh which I have before all of you tonight and that is the hollow wiener. Um uh no uh this is a great tale no pun intended uh although there are a lot of puns in
036the book uh it's about uh being kind to folks and uplifting other people as uh uh guess what his name is by the way. Do you know what his name is? >> Oscar. And you know what his last name is? Meer. So Oscar is a wiener dog who's teased and made fun of for his shape and size, but in the end he becomes a hero to all the other dogs that tease him and make fun of him and uh they never teased or made fun of him again because uh he uplifted and encouraged other and that's the message that we gave to our students that we want to be kind at all times and we want to encourage and be a hero to other people by lifting them up. So >> thank you so much
037Mr. Le. I appreciate that sir. And if you want a reading of the Halloween, I'd be more than happy to do that the next for me potentially. >> Any questions for Dr. D. >> Thank you, sir. >> Uh we'll move into the treasury report.
