As we recognize the month of October, we are mindful of the importance of awareness, encouraging

003exceptional performance beyond the overall rating. Campuses and districts can earn in five categories. How are they earned? D districts and campuses must first receive an acceptable acceptable overall performance rating of an A, B, or C. A school performance is then compared to a campus compared group consisting of similar schools. Distinctions are awarded based on performance on specific indicators such as results in different subjects or growth measure. And to earn a distinction, a school must typically perform at the top quantile, which is the top 25%. We had three schools we would like to recognize for their distinction destination. We have Sabata North Elementary with an overall rating of a B with five distinctions, designations, academic achievement in reading, language arts, academic achievement in mathematics, academic achievement in science and post-secondary readiness and top 25% representatives from

004Nord. We have Bial Elementary over overall rating with a B with two distinctions academic achievement in mathematics and post-secary readiness. [Applause] >> The board would like to join, please. Or rather, would the the board like to join, please? >> I thought you were gonna be a little congratulations. >> Thank you, sir. Perfect. >> Yes, sir. >> He's a young one. >> Perfect. Now it's perfect. One, two, and three. Thank you.

Can Sorry. >> Can we recenter? Mr. Ramz, can you move over to the right? >> There you go. Thank you. >> One, two, and three. [Applause] And we have Al Benavides Elementary with an overall rating of a B

No. >> Uh, item D, board communications. Uh, on behalf of the board, uh, congratulations to North Val and for your distinctions. Great job. You all did great. M, I want to say a few words. >> Congratulations to all of you. We know that uh, that doesn't happen alone. You do a lot of work to every single campus to to show growth, to show academic recognition. I've been chatting with some of my members that we really want to do something more that just a quick clap here because I think that the community needs to know how much you you strive for success every single campus and I know that hope invited to

006to agree and trying to do something in addition to what we're doing here. So again, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you all for everything you do, guys. >> Thank you. [Applause] >> Thank you. I want to of course echo the sentiments of our board members and how proud we are of the performance of um all of our campuses but particularly the three that are being recognized today and as Mora says it doesn't happen alone you all work very hard collectively uh to really meet the needs of our students and as we continue to work this year towards attaining that aid that we're chasing I know that through the hard work and determination of that team on each campus um with this team of eight that that we will be unstoppable. So, I I

007do want to extend our congratulations to to you all um represented here today and um uh support for the work that's going to be happening. I also want to congratulate all of our teams that um are performing just as well as they can. And Friday night, we had over probably over a thousand kids represented at Friday Night Lights. It was an amazing game uh against Beria and our boys came out ahead. Um and so we are in pursuit of our district title and I'm confident with um the leadership of coach Boris and those coaches that we will attain that as well as our volleyball team and that they are also working towards um a district championship. Uh we are getting ready for band and all the different competitions that are happening. And so there's always

008a lot going on in our district and October is a busy month for everyone and so we just got to stay the course, stay focused on the work and make sure that we're supporting our kids in the best uh in our the best of our ability. So thank you all for all of your hard work and your efforts. >> Thank you. Uh item E, consent items, uh approval of the minutes of the board workshop and special call board meeting held on August 5th. uh the public hearing and regular board meeting held on August the 9th. >> Uh good evening uh Mr. Ramirez, Dr. Vinho, members of the board. I request approval of the minutes for the board workshop and special call board meeting held on August 5th and the public hearing and regular board meeting

009held on August 19th, 2025. Second by Lis. All those in favor. >> Motion carries. >> Thank you. >> Let's go to item F, administrative report, finance update. >> Thank you. Um board members, these are the draft financials ending August 31st, 2025. Um, I would say that they are 80% complete and ready to be sent to the auditor. And so, uh, any questions, uh, that you have, I'll be more than happy to answer. Um, but we're going to go ahead and start with child nutrition fund. Um our revenues ending year to date um total 3,549,000 3,549,549. We are 99 uh% to budget uh with a variance of $26,799. Our expenditures were at 3,168,85. We're 89% expenditure variance uh to our budget as compared to actual. Now I can tell you that uh one of our biggest

010project which was the ZMS serving line was approximately 250,000 um we finished that. However, it was not finished till last week and so that expense will be counted for the 2526 school year. So, as of right now, our excess uh of revenues over expenditures is $381,464. Does the board have any questions? Okay. The general operating fund, the revenues um estimated are $34,930,535. We are over our uh budget by 1.6 million. Um that can be attributed to two things. The first thing is the tax collection that we received the penalties of 650,000. Um and then the other 500,000 is due to our state assigned values. I originally estimated that we would get about 3.5 back from state assigned. We got 3.9 back. So, um our revenues do look good. Um and we can expect to see

011um the only other thing that we can expect in revenues is our tax subsidy that we will be receiving from the IRS as well as our uh tax collection for the month of September. Because we are a governmental entity, the first 90 days of taxes should be realized in the prior fiscal year. Our expendure expenditures are at $35,981,69. We are at 95% of our expenditures of what we actually budgeted. Um, now I can tell you board members because we have not received I our IRS subsidy that 35.9 million once we receive the $445,000 interest payment our expenditures will go down to 35.4 million. However, we do still need to uh to book our acred wages for the month of August. All that that means is our teachers um start in August, but their new payroll

012doesn't start till September. So all the days that they worked in August, we do have to expense that out on the books. Okay. Um so we're looking at about a million um that we are going to use from fund balance. Do you all have any questions? >> Excuse me. >> It's a lot better than what we thought it was. Yes. Um, as you can see, our original budget is the second column. We, um, had originally expected to use 4.5 million from our fund balance due to our state assigned values. >> Um, our year-to-ate comparative by function. Um, this is, uh, from our general operating fund. Last year we were year- to- date 34.3 million in what we spent in our general operating fund. This year at the same time we're at 35.9 million. Um so

013we are spending 4% more than last year year to date. Um as the board can see the majority of that increase is our instructional. That's from our raises that we uh gave last year. And then you can see at the bottom our debt service. You can see that we have an um an amount change of 221,000 because we have not yet offset the IRS subsidy that we will be receiving. >> How much is that approximately? >> Uh we usually get 162,000 in February and 162,000 in um August. So it's about 350,000 325. Our debt service fund um year to date our actual we have received 2,872,000. We are over 200,000 of what we originally budgeted. Our expenditures that will include our principal and interest of 2,659,585. We have an excess of revenues of 212,000. That

014will be um a restricted fund balance that can only be used to pay our interest and syncing, which is our debt, principal, and interest. >> Can you prepay? >> Excuse me. >> Can you prepay? Yes, we actually um if y'all have your financials in front of you, board members, if you would look on page um 21 21 of your um board um your board book, you can see at the top of the page it says debt service fund. Um, our debt service we our debt service, Mr. Ramirez, is actually 1.7 million. However, last year in August, the board signed a defecence resolution, meaning any additional taxes that we receive above the 1.7 million will be paid back to principal. And that can be mostly attributed to the uh smart financial position that the board put

015the district in by using the values from our wind farms. Remember board members, the wind farms, we don't uh they don't pay taxes through to our general fund. They pay taxes as part of our debt service. So, it's in our best interest to make sure that those valuations uh go towards our principal and interest in order for us to pay it off a little bit quicker, our debt. Do you all have any questions about that? Okay. um our committed fund balance. This is um the second time out of the year that we present I present this financial board members. Um at the beginning of the year uh you can see our original budget which is our fund balance what is non-spendable unassigned and committed for construction was at 25.6 million. At the very beginning of

016the year, we committed six million towards projects. Doesn't necessarily mean that we're going to spend that money, but it's assigned for the purpose of one-time construction and commitments or capital outlay amended throughout the year. You can see that that amount went down to 21.5 due to the 4.5 that we were anticipating to pay from our fund balance through our general operating fund. um and actual as of uh August 31st, you can see that that has gone back up to 25,8,000. That is due to the new unassigned fund balance of 11,158,000 um because we increase the unassigned from we what we didn't use to balance our general operating fund. At the bottom, you can see that we spent $4 million in expenditures of the 6.4 million. I do want the board members to take note of

017the Apple Scope project. The Apple Scope project for financial purposes, we do have to book the complete asset. However, um we are on a lease payment basis for the next four years. So we will be good cash and liquidity side but on the asset side we are assetri in that aspect. Okay. And so we're accounting for the total amount of the Apple initiative project. Right now as of August 31st our um unodudited fund balance is 2097,439. Does the board have any questions? Good. I know it's a lot. It's August. So, our bills, claims, and accounts for August 2025. Um, this year we spent 1.5 million uh versus last year we were at 2.2 million. we uh paid out 32% less in Bill's claims and account as compared to previous year. The majority of that 500,000

018was uh from the ESSER fund that we no longer have funding for. The tax collection report for August 2025, the district received $73,756.40. our budget September through August, we are over uh what we uh budgeted. We're at 109% versus last year at 102. That can be attributed to the $600,000 penalty that the district received. And then for our budget from August, our opening levy, um our t of our tax role of 9.7 million, we have received 87% of that. Um so we are down.27 as compared to last year. Um board members, we do have one additional month that we will collect uh for this tax year. Do you all have any questions? No. This is a new report um that um is going to be brought to the board members uh to show um what

019an amazing job our uh PTO's, our boosters, our community um is uh providing the resources that they're providing to our students. And so this is the donations report for August 25, 2025. Um the district received $6,040 in donations. They are all restricted. Um and so you're going to see the month of September, it gets bigger throughout the school year as uh travel and uh other expectations and initiatives are brought along. um you will uh be able to see this uh board report updated and um just you know kind of giving the board um to show the board you know how much our community does for our students and so we are very truly thankful for everything that they do. Um, and just so that the board knows, these funds are restricted for the purpose of

020the donor. Do you all have any questions? >> That's it for me. Thank you. >> Um, item number two, instructional continuity teacher incentive team updates. >> School board president, school board members Dr. Trainho and colleagues, I will provide an update on the progress of our teacher incentive allotment, the TIA. The eligible teacher categories are three of them. The first one is uh fourth through 8th RLA and math, English one and two, English 2 and algebra 1. Category two, third grade rla, third grade math, fifth grade science, eighth grade science, eighth grade social studies, biology, US history, and category 3 K through 2 RLA. This is our data capture year and about approximately 57% of our teachers are involved in this project. The student incentive aotment uh is composed of two different parts. The student growth

021measure and the teacher performance. The student growth measure is not achievement. It's not how high they score. It is a measured by teacher percentage of the students who meet or exceed an expected growth target. And the teacher performance is the Texas teacher evaluation and support system. In category one, the student growth measure will be determined by performance results from the 2025 star assessment to the 2026 star assessment. So these are the grade levels that have a star that has been compared to from last year. The next category, these are the the uh this category they do not have a prior last year. We they do not have a prior test from uh the previous year. So the student growth measure will be determined by performance results from the beginning of year assessment which was the

0222024 star release test to the 2026 star assessment. So at the beginning of the year tests were administered under the same conditions as star testing with all policy and procedures followed. Classroom instru instruction observed a secure freeze in order to conduct a full established protocol protocols as we did at as we do at the end of the year with STAR testing. And this is category three and this is for grades K through two. A statemandated assessment is conducted at the beginning of the year and at the end of the year and that is a comparison. So the first part was about uh the the the student growth measure. The second part is about the teacher performance. So what are we doing? We're doing calibration walks. Principles are asked to do three calibration walks about once

023a month. Okay. Principles will partner with an assigned colleague. They designate the campus. They determine the week for a visit and outcomes are discussed during ELT. So the reason for this is that the when we submit our data to TEA it has to be validated. So these practices have to be in place. A teacher cannot be performing down here and a principal rating them up here. So that is why we have to make sure that the calibrations are correct and that they're practiced and these calibrations are based on our tests and there is a rubric that the principles follow and they discuss this rubric they discuss their rating and they compare one to the other and that rubric if I may that's that's across the board everyone has consistency or there's like by countless >>

024no it is the same rubric it is a statemandated rubric. Yeah, it's it's from the teacher uh evaluation system. The Texas teacher evaluation system. >> Rubric. A rubric. >> Rubric. >> Oh. Oh, I'm sorry. >> Yeah. So every in in the t test there's there's four domains for for um teachers and under each domain there are different categories and then they there there's different things that you have to look for that will tell you whether a teacher is where whether it's needs improvement developing proficient and >> accomplish accomplished or what's distinguish >> distinguished >> distinguish distinguish >> so there's a a rubric that you go and you look for okay did Did I see this? Yes. Did I see this? Yes. Okay. The next. Did I see this? And you keep going up until you

025get to a point where the teacher may be missing one or two things from from the rubric. >> Yeah. >> Perhaps you could share that with us. >> You know what? I will do that because it makes a lot more sense. >> Definitely. >> Yes, I will do that. >> We'll follow up with that on our next workshop. >> Yes. Do a presentation on it? >> Sure. Will. And on top of those three that they have to do once a month, every week the par the principles are required as per our superintendent and the CIA team. We require our principles to do five walkthroughs on the teachers. But what it is, they must complete five required walkthroughs weekly. They identify teachers who would benefit from additional support. So no longer are we going in there

026with a lens on let me see what I'm going to get this person in. We are there to help and support. It is to our advantage to work that way. We are in a growth mindset. So when we go in there we focus on all their strengths and then where what is an area that we really want to turn around and focus on and that's what the principles will do. So they will ask teachers this is the area that I want to see and if they say let's say they go see five of those teachers and one of them is a concern that they don't have enough engagement then they're going to have that conversation with teachers and say how is it that I can support you with engagement what is it that we can

027do so they collaborate and they'll say we'll come back and see you next week and we want to make sure we change that behavior. here. So, this is a process and you know I have to give kudos to the principles because I've been uh doing some walkthroughs and it's exciting to see that the teachers come out and they say how did I do and they ask their principles what did she say or how do I what is it that I need so we're trying to change that culture of them understanding how we want to support them to make them better because that is to our advantage. So kudos go to the principles because they are the ones that establish that culture, that mindset of growth. >> On an average, what's the length of those walkthroughs?

028>> 10 to 15 minutes and you can see a lot of things going on in 10 to 15 minutes. >> How many total teachers are participating for the data capture? >> I'm sorry. >> How many teachers are participating? about 57% to 58% of our teachers. >> So more a little more than half. >> So would you say that those are the teachers that are normally engaging in all the walkthroughs and the rest are not? >> No. >> There's no method for that. >> Well, no. What happens is that I don't know if you all remember but when Anna Mar Anna Mariela explained we have some grade levels that we do not have an established procedure. For example, what are we going to have a growth measure on those categories? So let's say for example the

029PE coach, what instrument are we going to use to show a growth measure and that takes some some work that putting those systems in place and that's our work in progress. >> So we promise that our goal is to get as many teachers I take that back. We want to get 100% of our teachers the this opportunity to try to get the >> TIA. How many teachers do we have? >> About 300. >> We're just over 300. >> That was a good question. >> Thank you, Rajie. >> So, when you say you want to get 100% that would be for this year or for >> no this year >> it's in phases this is phase one so we will probably have phase two and phase three >> depends on our progress and how we >>

030is 57% of approximately 300 teachers >> then we'll have to do phase two and then phase three will probably be the the latter part of of the phase will probably be those that are >> like get everybody in >> I think by phase two you should get everybody Sounds like it. >> We'll work hard on it. Mr. Won, >> was it like a preset number? Like we said, we have to have at least 50%. Is that what we're >> No, it was not a preset. It was based on the tools we already had. >> We wanted a starting point. >> Okay. >> So, we do provide targeted support based on observed needs and followup to monitor progress and ensure support is implemented. Are there any other questions? >> Okay. >> Thank you, ma'am. >> Uh

031let's go on to item G, action items. Uh number one, approval of resolution of district's investment policy and strategies. >> Thank you, Mr. Ramides. Uh hello again, board members. Um, I'm requesting approval of the Sabatha County ISD investment policy and strategies as required by CDA local for the 2526 school year. Board members, nothing has changed from the previous year. Uh, we are a g governmental entity, so we are required to conform to Texas Government Code 2256, um, which means the lowest risk possible. We're dealing with public funds. However, they're saying that any type of of of non non-secured high risk um interest uh collateral uh is not allowed. We are just ab abiding by our district policies. So, nothing has changed. Um the district does have 18 checking accounts. They are not interestbearing. Uh three

032money market accounts that are interest bearing. uh two certificates of deposits that are interestbearing, four investment pools, and one money market uh mutual fund um that holds our um our QCAB tax note uh which we do receive our uh QCAB IRS tax subsidy. Um so um I'm recommending uh approval and execution of a resolution of the district's investment policy and strategies. >> I'll make a motion motion by second in favor. >> Thank you. >> Uh item number two, approval of 2024 2025 committed fund fund budget. >> Thank you board members. Um, as discussed in our last budget workshop on August 9th, um, we committed $6.5 million uh, for committed funds um, for the purposes of one-time uh, construction and facility needs. Uh, of that 6.5 million doesn't necessarily mean that we spend any of it,

033but we do have to set the budget up, which I'm requesting approval of. um and request encumbrance as discussed. Um part of that encumbrance is the listing that I provided to the board members as part of the September 9th workshop. Um these um different areas which include facilities, instructional technology, transportation, extracurricular safety uh total to um 6.5 million. Um, I'm directing you to the uh column that's in orange. Um, and so right now I am requesting approval to set up the 2526 committed fund budget at this time. >> I need a motion to approve that. >> I'll make a motion. Second by all those in favor. Motion carries. Uh item number three uh approval of contracts and purchases over 25,000 and or >> um sorry about the looks a little blurry uh but the department

034of finance recommends approval of contracts purchases over 25,000 of 252602 and or fund balance purchases. Um so as the board can see um there are two purchases here that are under 25,000 because all of these purchases will come from committed funds. So they do require board approval. Um the first one is Barcom technology solutions. That's part of the uh technology license that's for the district firewall. Um that is an approved K tips contract. Um our band uh program is we is requesting equipment for their band program. Um everything uh will be purchased through Melheart Music uh by board contract. The Mariachi um is requesting uniforms for their seventh and eighth grade uh performers. Um and they obtained three quotes. Um the best quote that they obtained was through Weslicico Music Company. BSN uh that's for

035our varsity football uniforms through byboard contract. Um Huddle um they're requesting a live streaming equipment for their baseball and softball fields. Um that we did obtain a quote and they are approved through by board. And then the last is Longhorn Bus Sales. Um this is the price for two buses uh for our school routes as part of our committed our four-year committed fund balance. Um and that is through our by board uh contract. Now the long the buses take about eight months to build and so that's why we ask for the request for approval at the beginning of the year so that we're able to book the expense and get the buses in before next year. Do you have any questions? I have a question. On the buses, are they the flat front or the

036regular? >> Same ones that we got last year. >> Yes. >> What about I have a question because that was an observation. Um the ones that were that had the uh what do they call it? >> Yeah. The >> the ones that were wrapped >> the wrapping. Yes. >> That or >> we're going to we're going to have to send them back. I was just telling Rajie earlier. >> Yeah, they're they don't last forever. I think we've had them like for five, six years already. >> Since 2019, >> that was in 2019. So, it's been six years. >> They're not covered. >> Um, there's no other questions. I need a motion to approve. >> Motion by second. All those in favor motion. >> Thank you. Uh, thank you, Michelle. Item number four, discussion and possible

037action regarding the approval of anou between the district and the county sheriff's office. >> Thank you, sir, and good evening to our board members and of course, Dr. Fininoho. Uh this item pertains specifically to strengthen our our um our organization with the the uh collaboration between Sapata County Sheriff's Office and and ourselves uh specifically for the use of their of their firing range. Uh we're just amending our currentou that we have in place to add uh to add the firing range in addition to we just we didn't have it before. We've always used it. uh we just want to have it in in writing to be able to to um to make sure that everything is taken care of, >> but it does not change the existing one >> and and the officers would have

038access uh after hours, weekends >> as long as they as long as they communicate with Sheriff Montes, which by the way, that communication has been excellent. We've to date we've already had, I believe, five formal meetings and countless other informal meetings. Uh Mr. uh and uh and our department have been meeting a lot to be able to discuss certain things that they're required to by law. So our our collaboration between them is is going excellent. >> I agree. >> My question is um we've already received all this information because as of today I've not received anything. So I don't feel that it's right that I engage in a discussion when I'm not sure what you're talking about and I know that I voiced that many times. >> You did not receive your packet. >> I

039know. And I know that when there's confidential information that goes out, it always goes out to everybody else but me. And I need to make sure that if it's an issue, I need to get a hand delivered or something, but like right now, I feel like I don't know what you're talking about. So, I don't know if we should table it or wait for me to have an opportunity to go over the documents. If everyone has already done that, I'd hate to make a blind, you know, contribution to this. >> I understand your your point, Miss Corales. This is really just an extension of what we currently have. It adds specificity specificity to theou which is very general. And so all this is doing is saying that when we are are going to use the

040range, we check with the sheriff's office. We make sure we notify them in advance that we have permission to use it and that it's not being already booked that we s that we book in advance. It's more of a courtesy. >> And I totally understand what you're saying. I still think that I need to see it because I want I want to have I think I I'm >> appreciate that Mr. Motion to table this item um by Manuel Gonzalez second by Doris. All those in favor we'll bring this item back. >> Appreciate that. Um item number five, discussion and possible action regarding the approval of a tri- agency memorandum of understanding between the district pillar and Sapata County juvenile operation. >> Yes sir. So this is a a a memorandum that we've been working on

041for uh for a little while now. uh Manny from from Pillar, uh Fernando Rodriguez, the the chief uh juvenile probation officer, chief officer, and I have been looking at ways to strengthen our current uh agreement with Pillar. As as you all know, I've come to the board about discussing about the services that we provide through Pillar and the number of students that we service them through them. Last year, we we service 210 students at the end of the of the year. Uh currently we we're servicing up to 26 right now. The idea behind the tri agency is to circle around that child that's having issues. So if if the student is first goes to the juvenile probation and we're not aware of it, thisou will provide services through juvenile probation and pillar. When when he

042or she returns about the county ISD, we can provide additional services and not duplicate any effort. So it's more than anything I know that if you if if you look at through the through the u through the document there's some costs associated with those things. There's no duplication of efforts. We're we're not we're not the whole purpose of this is for us not to duplicate our efforts and not to uh pay for the uh additional services that have already been rendered by the juvenile probation office.
