The board will convene in close session for the purpose of discussing strategy session to discuss pending or reasonably litigation or discuss the character professional confidence or physical or mental health of an individual or personnel. Make a motion to move this journ please motion close and second. >> Yes. >> Nick, yes. >> Eileen, yes. Yes. Susan. Yes. Greetings. >> So, we're going to start our discussion portion of the board meeting with Summit County vaccine clinics. Dr. Please join us. >> Thank you. Brought along special guest. We give him
002a second to introduce himself for the new program. Uh for those that don't know me, my name is Phil Bondant and I am the Summit County Health Director for your Summit County Health Department. We appreciate the opportunity to be here tonight. Uh to my left is the uh clinical and nursing director for the Summit County Health Department, Derek Moss. He's our vaccine guide and works with the uh the nurses and staff that really do the good work related to vaccines. Tonight, the conversation that we asked to have with you, um, I get to do the easy part and Derek is going to have the more, um, robust conversation on vaccines, but really we wanted to talk about the renewed and highlighted relationship that we have with Park City School District. Um, for public health to
003be successful, we have to have strong partnerships. That's not just the Summit County Department. That's all public health departments. We rely heavily on on those partnerships to understand the narratives, to understand uh the needs, to understand the desires so that we can best serve our communities. And for me, this is a great conversation because going back to starting in the summer, we started measles conversation. And I know I don't want to say the N word too loud. I'm specific, especially the week before the holiday break. uh we don't want to get into that space but really I wanted the board to know just the good work that Lindsay is do or superintendent Huntsman is doing. Uh she has completely flipped the narrative around public health in Summit County with Park City School District. We appreciate
004that from the very onset of her stepping into that role and my first call to her being, hey, can we talk about measles? She's been on board 100%. And we wanted to take an opportunity tonight for the board to hear that. In public service, we very rarely hear the good stuff. I know you guys have some challenging things on your plate, but this is an opportunity for one public servant to a board on behalf of another public servant the good work that's being done in this community. So with that, thank you Lindsay in a very public way. We appreciate all you're doing to support public health. um now to what that support has translated into for your staff and student body. And that's why Derek is here today is to talk about uh what he
005has done or what he's been able to do with his staff, what he's been able to do to leverage the knowledge and awareness of the nursing staff inside the schools. and then uh open up for maybe a conversation or even a thought about what this might look like as we continue to expand on integrating a healthier community for all into the different uh school districts in some counties. So with that, I will turn it over to Derek. >> Appreciate it and appreciate you guys having us here. We really do. um you know as uh we took over as I took over sorry as the nursing director there with the health department uh one of the areas that we have been able to work together was um providing tuberculosis testing for some of the CMA um
006EMT students uh we've been able to continue that and it's been fantastic um but as we've been able to find new ways to collaborate and to uh increase availability uh over here with the school district uh we've had a lot of success and we just want to kind of highlight a few of those things that we're able to do. Um, you know, we're right in the middle of flu COVID seasons. We're we're coming into it right now. Um, we're able to to provide flu and co vaccines and various avenues. One of the most successful was parent teacher conference that we did over here at Trailside uh recently. uh at that one vaccine clinic um we're able to administer over a hundred vaccines um to families, to students, to staff um and it we've done other
007vaccine clinics with staff in the past, but this was the first time we really got into a parent teacher uh conference and that was fantastic. It worked really well. Um some other ones we've done over at McPoland, we're able to do a measles clinic. Uh obviously as we've talked about just briefly that's that's still something we're watching very closely. It's surrounding Summit County right now. Uh this was an opportunity that we had to um come to the schools and increase accessibility availability of these vaccines and it's not just administering the vaccines. Um the opportunity to come in and educate. Uh we also had at McPolland yeah at McPoland in August we had an opportunity to talk directly to parents to staff uh answer questions obviously uh some people get information through unreliable sources. Uh it
008was an opportunity to talk directly to families that were scared and uh provide information. And so now that we've um started opening these doors, these opportunities would love just to increase that accessibility, that availability, u making sure that we're hearing what barriers families, staff, students might be having, uh but do want to access things like uh like vaccines. We're able to hear them. We're able to address, make changes in our programs, make changes to where we're offering clinics. And personally, I'm very excited about the opportunity that we're going to have moving forward. Uh hopefully we can build on on what we've started here. And uh yeah, just make sure that we we are offering what you need, what your staff needs, what your students need, your families need. Um so increasing communication uh will be
009key to that going forward. It's been fantastic. We really appreciated um where we are at this point and look forward to many more opportunities. But those were some of the highlights that I just wanted to share because we really appreciated um having this collaboration and uh partnership. >> Thanks D. We didn't really have an agenda other than just coming and sharing information. A lot of times the health department does not have the opportunity to get in and have conversations with the school board about the work that's being done, at least not on a positive note. And this this is an instance where we can do that. So hopefully we've been able to share some of the positives that are going on inside of our work and collaboration and we're able to walk away with a
010feeling of good. But we also if it's appropriate, we're willing to field questions or ideas if we need to take it offline. We're happy to do that as well. But most important, we want you to know that your Summit County Health Department is available and reopening to you as a school board, but also as residents of Summit County. We're here to serve you. As our tagline says, we're working for a healthier community for all. It starts with the youngest of young, and that's our children in the schools. So, thank you. >> Thank you. No, I want to say thank you to both of you for the collective effort to ensure that messaging is consistent both from the health department as well as the school district. I know in the past there's been conflicting messaging and
011it's been a significant shift when we're sending out the same communications. >> Yeah. And I think the greatest example of that is that recent communications went out just ahead of their Thanksgiving holiday. uh we were afforded the opportunity by uh the superintendent and her team to participate in the messaging of them to make sure it was accurate, it was appropriate, and those aren't conversations that we were able to have in the past. We appreciate that. It shows a high level of trust for the health department and the opinions and facts that we have. And that type of collaboration is exactly what we're here to celebrate tonight. >> That's great. And I think from from my perspective just uh want to understand how we partner going forward and uh I mean absolutely trust handle it but
012whatever we can do as a board to support and uh and make sure we continue working together. I think we probably got a full support to do. >> Awesome. That's that's very encouraging to hear. We have a couple of medical people on the floor. >> Yes, we might be tapping into that. It's just us politely asking. So, >> and let us hope we can help with the other districts. >> Yeah, I will tell you that um we have three fairly new superintendents that we get to work with and we're very fortunate to be in the position where we've got them. I know superintendents are really busy. We stole four hours of them in their day this summer. They came in not only with concerns but with solutions and we built what we identified as a
013blueprint that we all agreed to and took a peeking promise. I'm going to weren't going to stray from that blueprint. It included messaging and it has it breeds a lot of confidence in what this community mainly the school district and the health department will be able to do in the event of the needles finds its way here and no surprises everyone there to expect and it breeds a lot of confidence and I I hope that you can see that in >> I I'll just it's shared today at Rotary that Diane Burnhard who's the director for hope alliance which partners with the people's health clinic to provide vision care was also very grateful to come and help with student she's not here but I think it echoes what is being shared here now >> absolutely it's
014all in the same vein as well >> right >> it's really hard to learn if you can't see or if you're sick at home >> yeah and it goes beyond just the child being sick at home and missing school, but then the parents have to leave work and maybe they don't have a job where they have leave and and so it's a compounding effect, right? It has a social element that we tend to not consider. So when we talk about getting to a parent teacher conference and a and a parent prioritizes that and we can make it one less trip for them. You can't even get your kids out of the car into the doctor's office in seven and a half minutes. >> But we can get an entire family through in seven and a
015half minutes and save them their eating so they can return home and do things they should be doing, spending time with their kids. >> It's really fun. >> Awesome. >> Thank you guys. >> Thank you. We appreciate it. Happy holidays. Have a great new year. >> Thank you. >> All right. Next up, we got P Park Elementary with Thank you for this opportunity. We're so excited. So, I'm excited to be representing Project Park. I continue to feel so incredibly blessed to be able to be the leader of such an incredible community. It's been an incredible ride. Um so you can turn. So the with the um the mission of Park City School District, there's a few words that um I want to highlight real quick that Parley's emulates and we'll talk about it for a
016minute after. We inspire. We support all students. We really are focused on academic and social the whole child and we've really been able to establish just a campus that's student centered and really really believe in transparent communication um goes a long way. I my our belief is we can't overcommunicate communicating that. So, how we did that, um, the mission and vision of Parley's Park, our work with this is every year we have a little theme that goes along to kind of just make it a little bit more fun because we're elementary and it's a lot easier to have things go together. This year we have a puzzle theme and it's we all fit together, leading with kindness and learning with purpose and it goes along with the um the mission that everybody belongs and the
017way you belong as you serve one another and you're kind. So we have kindness colle weekly kindness connection challenges that we put out and we have all over the hallways and we push out in our newsletters and encourage the families and that's we're trying to teach the children the more you serve you you really learn to love the people you serve. So if you're serving and being in the service of others you really will happier. Also we have our PBIS expectations. Um, part of our mission and vision is that everyone's safe but helpful and kind. And this has gone really along with our conscious discipline implementation for our social emotional wellness. So that's our updated posters actually that our committee just created in the last couple weeks that will be um we'll have a protocol
018for every part of our schools to make sure all the kids know because it's really important park that with adults and children that you first support them and you teach them and you explain the expectations really clearly and then you can help help them and expect them to be successful. And the other initiative that we are really focusing on this year um clarity is kindness and a lot of this is my own leadership growth just I have really learned in my time that the clearer you are it's the kinder was kindest you can be so I have committed to my staff and asked that they commit to me that we're just very clear and we're really in a kind way. So two of the things that we've really embraced this year and I'm happy to
019say that it's change really changed the culture and climate of our campus is we are all committed to be curious and not judgmental. So when you're in a situation just be curious don't judge, right? Ask those questions. And then the other thing is that we're really committed to no gossip that we are going to protect our narrative. and we've had a lot of conversations when you tell people other things that aren't yours to tell, then you give the other person the power to twist it and turn it however they feel. So, I have seen that that has made a huge has had a huge impact on the climate and culture. Everyone feels a little safer, right? They kind of are handling things in the appropriate manner. Next slide. So, this slide, I could talk for
020a minute on this. This is a really exciting slide. I on the rise scores on the left hand side. I started at Prize Park in 2021. So, I thought it would be kind of fun to look at the historical [clears throat] data since I got there. And if you'll see, we've made like a steady climb. We've had some oops along the ways and we've made some adjustments and been able to climb up. The most significant pieces of data on the rise is that last year um we had we were coming in at fourth and fifth grade average of 51% for science. This last year we jumped to 71%. And the big thing that I wanted to point out that we had a fourth fourth grade cohort that graduated last year in in fourth grade they
021scored 49% on the science rise. Last year they scored 70%. >> Huge jump. >> And then for math we've had um a consistent improvement. For the first two years I was at probably the average was about 56% then we had a nice jump to 64%. We're continuing to look to improve that as well. And then for ELA, my first two years, we were at 52%, we dropped down to 48. Then we really shifted our practice to really target. We started conscious discipline to make sure everyone's available to learn and then we started focusing really on the standards and we were able to jump up to 65%. So, it's kind of a kind of neat to see that trajectory. We definitely have a long way to go, but we got to stop and celebrate sometimes. And
022then this is just completely raw, fresh, right off the um the on the right hand side is our Acadian reading data. There's some incredible growth there. We had um 71% so five grade levels. So what we did, we changed things a little differently this year. We had every single student take the reading acadians test K5. Every student didn't matter what they were because we really wanted to make sure our tier one is having an impact on everyone. And so five grade levels increased like they came in at 71% proficient at the middle of the year which is really quite wonderful. And then three grade levels third, fifth and kinder are already at 80 to 85% proficient there. Um the interesting thing our first grade whole words we have 62% of our first grades already end
023of the year benchmark for whole words. So these are just the little wins that we take, right, that we can build on and really grow because we know that um the more success they have, the better happier they'll be, the more success they'll find. >> The kindergarters are going busters. >> Yes, kindergarteners. That's incredible. It's it's just been incredible. And we've our PLC, we've been hard at work for our PLC's. There's a lot of things that go into that, but all I'm here to say is it's a collective effort. and I'm surrounded by the most superstar staff that I've ever been surrounded in all my years. So, I'm so thankful. Speaking of superstar staff, we have two people that we have here. Um, I was asked to select two staff members that represent the Park
024City one and we all belong and emulate that on a regular basis. So, I will just start with Teresa Rosales. Do I have her? Teresa, if you want to join us and then Alex from Vil, do you want to join us as well? Just up here at the table. >> So, I would love to share about Teresa. >> So, Teresa is our head custodian and we were gifted her from Treasure Mountain. We were literally it was a gift. She actually came from Treasure Mountain and I feel like she came with expertise at a upper secondary school and it absolutely helped in our little elementary school, right? She is flexible. She always serves with a smile. There is never you don't see a smile. She's super inclusive. Um she it's never I can't. It is always
025yes. When do you need that by? Like every human on campus that asks her anything. Sure. When do you need that by? Right. She touches every staff member and I think the thing that I really want to thank her for is leading her team. She has a team of two about there's two more in addition and she just lead she emulates that clarity and they are happy and smiley and sure no problem. So I'm so happy that she you emulate you emulate exactly what we're shooting for which is one park city and everyone belongs. Thank you. I just want to >> very blessed to be part of uh Farley's part family. Um yeah, I'm part of that hard transition from Charles uh treasure to Farley's and it was hard but now I feel like very
026blessed. So, thank you, Miss Kim, for make me feel like you are welcome and everybody that make that possible. Thank you. So, my pleasure. You're amazing. >> This is for you. >> Thank you so much. >> Congratulations. At the end. At the end. Okay. At the end. Okay. So, our next person is Miss Katie Claus. So, Miss Katie Claus, she might be little and tiny, but her heart has a heart. Her heart is bigger than anyone you'll ever climb across. So, she is our special ed teacher and she works with the students who really struggle with self-regulation. And I will say that she handles herself with the most incredible professionalism. She gives those kids, she always has positive intent. She always advocates for them. You are always we've actually I kind of nickname you you're
027like the child whisperer. Like these children she b she connects with them so well and then she helps the other staff members see the goodness in the child if that makes sense. Um, you definitely you and here's another thing that is really a standout is she has a growing team under her. She's got behavior techs that work for their ESPs and she leads them with exceptionalism like with kindness and clarity and they come to her and she provides them with immediate feedback and it's it's just amazing and she serves kids in all grades. So you really are Park City one and you are you definitely help everyone feel that we all so thank you for being so amazing. >> Thank you. >> This is easy. >> Thank you guys for having me tonight. This is
028a big honor and I really love the work that I do um and the kids that I get to serve every day. So you do an incredible job. [clears throat] Teresa Katie, thank you for embodying what it means to be one Clark City um and ensuring all of our staff as well as our students and families feel like they belong. Uh this award is sponsored by Veil. Alex or Jen, do you want to say a few words about what they are being given? Uh yeah, so this is a it's a $100 gift card, either good for one day lift ticket or $100 in our any of our retail stores. So congratulations and thank you for all that you do. >> If you could grab photos just behind this step, it would be that would be
029great. on Sorry to look underwater. [laughter] >> Sure. You speak engineer. Thank you. >> Okay. So the next piece, so this asks for a leadership. So leadership in at ProSpark this might fit here or there. And one thing that I know that the staff value is they all want to be heard and they all want to have a voice and they all want to which that's really important. So no one feels like just a small group is making a decision. So this year we did something different. We took the the licensed staff and we basically split it in half and we said would you like to be on the silt team which is the academic team where we're going to be working on personalized learning or would you like to be on the bolt team
030which that deals with our behavior our conscious discipline our networking our support positive mind growth and safety and security and so right now we have 14 staff members plus the three of myself and Brett um from teaching and learning so they're like there's what is there 17 of us that are working on PCBL and it is so exciting. Um and then at the same time that Sil is meeting on that Friday, our Bolt team is meeting and they have these six subcommittees. So they're all meeting. So on those Fridays at Products Park, it is so busy. There's just conversations and planning going all over. And then we have um we have a shared Google Drive with a committee folder and they take minutes of all their meetings so everyone can go on and read anything
031from any meeting. And then that next Wednesday after a leadership Friday, we have a staff meeting where we do a committee share out where we share out, we talk about things, we get input. And I will say that this year in this short amount of time, we've probably made more um significant changes on the bolt side of the house than we've ever had. Much of that is the credit to our amazing dean, Johnny Leesma. He leads that. Um it's just amazing to have that have this incredible team and be able to accomplish quite a bit. So that that's amazing. So that is where everyone has an inclusive opportunity to be a part of it. And then the classified staff if they're like we have our Lisa Abear like anybody or Joel Bana anybody who's still
032on campus can go to these meetings and if not they know where to find the minutes and then they can add or have questions. So I feel like we've got that dialed in. Then there's a whole list of all the other committees that are that are you know that people can join. So that's kind of what we've done. And then a communication I definitely am a firm believer that communication is a game changer for everybody. So I hold myself to the same account to the same expectation that I've asked my staff to do my licensed staff to do. So, every single week, um, the expectation is the classroom teachers send home a newsletter or some kind of communication to families. It can even just be, you know, this is what we're learning, this is what
033we're learning, here's some photos, and then I will do the same thing. I send home a newsletter every single week because I just think it's really important that I model that and that I if I'm going to hold my staff accountable, I've got to hold myself accountable. And so, you there's a couple examples. Some staff send like just an email with some photos. Some staff actually have like a little newsletter that they they push out. But I will tell you from my first year at Parlies to now, my questions about around procedures and what's going on are are like literally down to like maybe someone's new to Parlies, you know. So, I think I feel really proud about that. And then any questions that we have, if there's anything percolating up, I throw it in
034my principal message. We had a hold um we started, you know, we've had some holds and so I can put those right in the principal newsletter and kind of explain why we introduced our SRO. So, it's fun. And then the other community um alliance, these are just I could have filled this whole thing with like so many, but I just picked kind of a wide variety. The one on the left, I picked that because we have we're blessed to have a dance program at Carly Spark. Um it's amazing. It is absolutely amazing. Melissa Holm actually has the kids dance to content to deepen their understanding of the standards. So, it's incredible. So, she puts movement to the standards. So, this was a picture of um our some of our fifth graders. They participated in um
035the Day of the Dead. It was like Park City High School. It was a community event. They did this whole thing. It was amazing. They audle selected and then she taught them a dance. And the other thing we're super proud about is we were now officially a Utah brain school, which is kind of a huge deal. Um, we actually we got notified that last month we had saved we had diverted 14,000 pounds of waste >> from the landfill. This is pretty awesome. >> And we actually are we I think we're the only school we started it with composting utensils and literally it came from the student council. It came from the whole the kids. Wow. They were like, "I can't believe we're throwing all this plastic utensils away. Do you think Miss How would let
036us do the utensils?" And so then they put together a little proposal. The proposal was taken to my kitchen manager, which then we pulled in our PTA. Then we had them write an actual PTA grant. PTA granted it. So now we have utensils that we So that was really awesome with that. And then the one on the right, our Veterans Day, it was a really, really big deal. Um, it's an incredible the specialists work together. Um, we have a mom and Jen. She organizes it. It's amazing. The highlight this year is we had several people from the school from from the district. We had um Yeah, we had Michael Santa Rosa. We had Chris Macintosh is our interventionist. Shay's our librarian. We honored all of them and all those other community members. >> And yes,
037that's Thank you. Thank you. >> I thought it was pretty. It was sweet. So much fun. I mentioned it in the meeting in November after and we the dance the kids dance >> they did a dance >> the preschoolers were there everybody was really >> so we've done a pretty and then and the neat thing too is that our own dean Johnny Leesma he was the keynote speaker >> which was amazing so he's a I don't know if you all know but he's a retired naval chief petty officer >> so he and the kids were just like what >> when he walked up he's all decked out you know so he gained a lot of respect but some of Anyhow, [laughter] so that was just really neat. It was just like kind of an in-house
038thing. So that that was great that brought us together. >> the SRO was there. >> He was all in uniform. It was really neat. And we actually along with that we actually have implemented this kind these kindness um school family kindness assemblies. We call them monthly family assembly, school family assemblies. And so that was part of it where we recognize each other and just celebrate kindness. And then the last thing where it said final thoughts, I couldn't I'd be really remiss if I didn't kind of share my own personal journey as a leader here at PSA Park. I have had the privilege of watching a school transform and it it and I I've learned a lot myself and the staff has learned a lot. We learned a lot on our journey to learn about [cough
039and clears throat] self-regulation and how we can actually co-regulate the human we're standing in front. It's kind it's a lot. Um it's been incredible and also we were blessed to have an approved idea plan so we can implement conscious discipline and we have gone from a rocky soil which I would define rocky soil as broken but kind of a little bit dysfunctional a lot of judgment a lot of fixed mindsets and we've shifted now to a really healthy soil we're aligned we're cohesive we are curious we have a growth mindset we use the the word yet. You see yet on probably every wall you when you're there and I have witnessed that with that the blossom but the the celebrations and the blossoms have just are there countless like I could be up here for
040like you don't even want them there's so many wonderful things happening um with conscious discipline every single class every single morning every adult welcome has a morning greeting with every student our librarian Shay who's new from Treasure Mountain every single class, every single child who walks in that library throughout the day, they can either get a high five, fist bump, or hand on the heart, which means they need a compliment before they enter the library. And what's happened with these structures, we've also have wishs, we also have classroom circles. What's happened is is that our discipline and our it has totally shrunk to like really justified students who struggle with self-revelation, which you're going to have those, right? We're here to serve them, too. And so it's just been really amazing. And I had to
041bring this in because I um Lindsay on her walk today, we were walking around and the PCF paid to have a mirrorless paint these on our playground. And this is called the time machine and I thought I would just bring it in because it was super fun today. Like Lindsay was like, you know, what is that? So Lindsay and I practiced the time machine and I think it's just really important because this is like one practice that has transformed how we deal with conflict at properties park. So it's just a little conflict resolution mat, right? Where they risk each other well, they talk, they use their assertive voice, they shake hands, they make agreements, and then they go back. And these kids are actually using it on the playground by themselves. Some of them they'll
042literally, you'll see them over there, they're working it out, and then they might work it out and they'll flip it because maybe now they're upset about the other one. It's just been amazing and I it's it's really amazing how when you support people and you learn and as a leader you learn with your staff what happens to a campus. It just transforms and it becomes really a home. So I'm really thankful for the opportunity to keep leading at Parley's Park. We have so much more to do, but I'm just so thankful for the journey we had and I thank you so much for this opportunity to talk about us because there's some real magic happening over there. It's pretty pretty amazing. The greatest thing is that we do all belong and everybody knows that they
043there's an avenue in which they can be heard and that they're accepted. And to me as a leader that is the most important bit >> questions for question. >> You guys are welcome to stay for the rest of the board meeting or you could be excused. [laughter] >> You will not hurt our feelings. [laughter] All right, next up we've got JDA. >> Good evening. Uh, I'm going to give you an update on Doer Field. Um, got a little presentation here. The first slide. >> Did you see that? >> Just so you can know this is not but go back to the start. There should be slide keep going there. There we go. Okay. So, there's the site plan just for a refresher to let to let you know what's what's happening over there. Uh so
044you can kind of get some context here. So, we have started about two weeks ago with the site demolition. The visitor bleachers are out. The um home bleachers are about 75%. The rest of that will come out tomorrow. uh the press box and what's remaining of the bleachers there. Um they have started the site grading uh taking out all of the concrete supports for those visitors bleachers bleachers and then they're starting to take down the the mounting was kind of built up around there. They've started digging the footings on the front portion that east entrance there. So you'll see them start to uh you'll start to see those footings coming out of the ground here in the next week or two. Uh, and that that building should go those buildings should go up fairly quick.
045So, you'll see that coming. Um, and then they'll continue the demolition around there. They've filed a 10-day notice on the buildings. So, the concessions building, you can switch around to the next slide. So, this is just kind of an overview there of what it is. That's the entrance coming in from this east side and then the home side over there. Next one. And just another kind of an overview there. So, uh, and then these these next pictures are just general, right? So, we've prepped these buildings for demo. The concession's probably the biggest one that's getting demoed. The other one is that front storage building that was kind of a ticket deal as you walked in. That's going down as well. You go to the next one. You can see the where the visitors bleachers have
046gone and they're starting to take this grading down along there. Um, keep going and more. Yeah. So, and you can see there's quite a bit of concrete underneath those. So, it's quite a bit of demo going on there. Few trees are going down on that south end. Um, and they're working their way around uh on the west end. So, uh and then really, like I said, the footings will be gone once this goes down. Once the home goes down, then you'll start to see all the work happening over there as well. So they're about two weeks in roughly, give or take a few days. And that's kind of the update with them. So >> are you ahead because the weather's been so >> Yes, the weather has been phenomenal to say the least, right? So
047I know that's not everybody's not happy about that, but I'm happy about that. You know, as long as it stays like this, I it's just incredible the amount of work we're getting done. So which is a good start for for that over there, right? So, the track will stay in place through the winter, but it'll come out in spring, and I don't know when spring is going to be. So, I'm hoping it's early, but you know, this this this won't stay forever, obviously, and I think we know that. So, but that's kind of what's happening over there right now. So, um you like I said, you'll see those buildings start to go up and then you'll start to see the site work happening on this on the home side of the field. So, >> we
048said in the east side, we're regretting that. >> Yes. So that comes down if if you want >> there was a sewer line there. >> Yep. >> And we diverted that sewer line so it's not used in >> Right. So yeah. So this is the east side where you'd walk in and then you see to the right there that white portion is the new visitors bleachers. >> So that's going to be field level. >> It's going to be field level basically. Yeah. And and that helps with the ADA. I don't know if you remember before the ramp and all that stuff that all comes down and then it kind of ties in to that plaza as you walk out of the extension of the high school, right? That's all meant to kind of be a
049a gathering area and a place outside. So that'll all kind of tie together. You'll be able to walk onto the surface of the track. Yeah. Right there where that plaza is. So >> questions about nursery. >> Okay. >> Thanks. Okay, next up we have our consent agenda which includes uh regular session minutes from November 18th, close session minutes from November 18th, special session of November 24th. the travel request. Um, new course proposals for this 26 27th school year, trail side, land trust revision, autism curriculum adoption, personnel check registers of November and board revenue and expenditures of November. >> I make motion to approve the consent agender. I >> I Now we will >> time. Uh, okay. Now we're moving into public comment. The board of education wants to hear live input from community members at
050our meetings. In order to respect and preserve the time allotted to each presenter on the agenda, each speaker will be limited to three minutes. Speakers representing a group will be limited to five minutes and the board expects that all public comments will be polite, respectful, and accurate. >> Lori, do you have any? >> Yes, sir. Um, I just wanted >> and then you'll have your three minutes and then you'll need to fill out that blue sheet. >> My name is Todd Sullman and I've been here a couple of times to talk about Doure kind of the old Doure ideas that were changed recently. Um, I have, I guess, a request is we've got the all the demolition trucks, the 18 wheel semi trucks, um, coming through the neighborhood. And I know that we've talked about
051this with the bus lane. I know that we've talked about this with the CTE wing construction that's been going on forever. And our neighborhood is overrun. And this this also has to do with the parking at the church. Uh the high school kids parking at the church. Um I live in the neighborhood right there on Lucky John and Monitor. Um and I'm respectfully requesting that we somehow divert as much of this construction traffic that seems now to be going to be going on for another year or whatever um out of the neighborhood. And it's it's a safety concern. um primarily the traffic, but it's a it's a neighborhood road. Um it's not set up for, you know, semi-truck after semi-truck after semi-truck. Um and I know we've been uh talking about this a lot. I
052I hate to bring it up again. I honestly do. I I don't want to be here at all. Um and I understand how construction goes and you guys got to do what you got to do. I guess I wanted to just make sure that everybody on the board knows that that is what's happening. Um, and it is uh I think it's dangerous and that's just my personal opinion, but I sit and look at that intersection all day and there are kids and the the level of cars has increased. You know, I can't put the number on it, but I I would guess tenfold over the last five years since that CTE project's been going. And I'm I'm you know we're so exc I'm personally so excited that that project is complete. Um as you know
053the the neighborhood the Holiday Ranchets gifted the land to the school district that the high school is built on and the agreement was that there setback the 100 foot setback which is what came up after the the deal. It's also there was never supposed to be parking back there, which there now is at the CTE wing. And I believe there's uh no need for con additional construction traffic. Now, I understand if something needs to happen, okay, like I get it. Um but it's it's very very impactful and I don't think anybody really knows and everyone just says, "Well, it's a public street so we can kind of do whatever." And I guess I'm asking for some little bit more good neighbor than that. And we all understand I have kids in the school. We all
054want this stuff to happen. Um and um I I I will not say another word, but I just wanted you guys to know that that is what's happening. And I guess my concern is that this project is now all the construction traffic is going to be coming through that emergency egress, which is what that is supposed to be. Um, and I uh appreciate your time. >> Thank you. >> That was three of them. >> You're bless. >> You can take that. Throw it out. Okay. My favorite parts. We'll start. Hi, Kristen Hall, PCA co-president and high school counselor. Um, as always, thank you for all you do to support educators and your collaboration with PCEA. PCA is celebrating the repeal of House Bill 267 along with public workers across the state. It is a result
055of strong member-driven action. DCA members came together to protect the voice of public education, demonstrating the power of collective action and solidarity. With the repeal, we look forward to continuing to work collaboratively with the district to advocate for educators on issues that directly impact teaching and learning, compensation, and working conditions. We're looking ahead to the upcoming legislative session, ready to ensure educators voices remain heard and public education remains strong. We invite the board to join us in making their voices heard during the legislative session in support of Utah's public education. >> Thank you. Please don't try. >> All right.

057drawing for the end of each month, which we have bigger prizes for that. And then the NHS food drive is also concluding this week. I'm not sure of the goal in pounds that we're trying to hit, but I think we're pretty close and everyone's been working really hard. And then once we're formal, we have set the date for February 2nd. And I think I'm pretty sure that the theme is office with a mix of moderate likes. >> Maybe. What time does the talent show on Friday? >> I'm not sure. I have a schedule. >> 10:30. Okay. >> Did the library come up with the money for the opportunity drawing or DP law? >> Um, student. >> Students can't sleep.

It's run by the state treasurer. Um and most of our money is in there with our with Kigo leaving and Austin taking that position. Uh this is really a resolution by the board to allow us both to be administrators on the account. So if one of us gets hit by a truck, we can still access the funds we can access. So um so this is this is the win for the lottery. >> One of us. [laughter] >> Yeah. So this is a formality with the office of state treasure.
