001Gary, >> good evening. It is May 12th, uh, 2026. The time is 5:31. Please rise with me uh for the pledge of >> allegiance of the republic for it stands nation indivisibley and justice for all. >> Thank you. That gives us a good start to the regular board of directors meeting. The next item is our land acknowledgement. I think you have that, Julie. Yes, thank you. Um, the land acknowledgement. Evergreen Public Schools resides on the traditional lands of the Chinookan peoples and the Kalat tribe. They have lived on and cared for this land and its waterways since time immemorial. We thank them for their stewardship and make this acknowledgement to open a space of recognition, inclusion, and respect for all indigenous students, families, and staff in our community. >> Thank you, Julie. The next item
002is to adopt tonight's agenda. Is there a motion? >> I move for adoption of tonight's agenda as presented. >> Second. >> Director Benegra has moved and director Wilson seconded uh to approve tonight's agenda as presented or adopt tonight's agenda as presented. All in favor? >> I. Motion carries. Our next item is the superintendent report. >> All right. Thank you. Good evening, board of directors. President Perkins. Um I am t following the typical format. I'm going to share the operational expectation policy numbers and titles before the two topics that I'm going to share this evening. So the first one has three operational expectations that falls underneath OE5 financial planning. OE6 financial administration and OE9 communicating with the public. So, I would like to provide a brief update regarding Evergreen Public Schools annual audit conducted by the
003Washington State Auditor's Office. Each year, the state auditor's office independently reviews school district financial operations, accountability systems, and compliance with state laws and district policies. Evergreen is about the eighth largest school district in Washington state. We fluctuate a little bit depending on student enrollment from across the different districts. And these audits are an important measure an important part of ensuring transparency, accountability, and responsible stewardship of public resources. I'm pleased to share tonight that the Evergreen Public Schools once again received a clean audit result with no audit findings identified in either our financial statements audit or accountability audit. The auditor's office reported that the district operations complied in all material respects with applicable state laws, regulations, and district policies, and that the district maintained adequate controls over the safeguarding of the public resources. The audit also
004identified no material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal controls related to financial reporting. This continues a long-standing pattern of clean audits for Evergreen Public Schools and reflects the professionalism, expertise, and diligence of our business services team. I want to specifically thank Chief Financial Officer Jennifer Jacobson, accounting manager Lorie Felman, and assistant director of fiscal services Susie Moon for their outstanding work and leadership throughout this audit process. In addition to the clean audit results, the district received two management letters from the audience or the auditor's office. Management letters are not audit findings. Rather, they are recommendations intended to help strengthen internal procedures and operational practices. One management letter addressed supplemental contracts issued back in 2023 under a prior superintendent related to bargaining and enrichment activities. During prior discussions earlier this year, I stated my understanding that
005these contracts had already been reviewed as part of a previous state auditor accountability audit. That understanding was based on language contained in the auditor's published report indicating that supplemental contracts for enrichment activities had been examined during the audit process. During this year's audit process, the auditor's office clarified that the bargaining related supplemental contracts from 2023 under a prior superintendent had not been closely reviewed at that time and subsequently conducted a more detailed review on both the contracts and district procedures. Following that review, the auditor's office did not issue a finding of fraud, misuse of funds, or intentional wrongdoing. However, they did recommend that supplemental contracts be executed prior to work being performed and that documentation more clearly demonstrated that the work is outside the scope of an employees regular contract responsibilities. The district accepts those
006recommendations and is already implementing procedural refinements to ensure supplemental contracts are consistently documented and executed in advance of moving forward. Our staff are conducting a thorough review of those internal procedures and controls to ensure continued compliance with state guidance and best practices. The second management letter relates to the district's financial condition and declining fund balance reserves and issue many districts in Washington are currently facing due to rising costs and ongoing funding pressures. The district has already taken significant steps to address these challenging uh this this challenge, including reductions in force, limiting expenditures to essential needs, and implementing a multi-year financial recovery plan focused on restoring long-term fiscal stability. Overall, the audit confirms that Evergreen Public Schools continues to operate with strong financial oversight, sound internal controls, and a commitment to transparency and accountability. We appreciate
007the work of the Washington State Auditor's Office and remain committed to continuous improvement in all operation all and financial practices. The second topic tonight is OE9 which is operational expectation policy 9 communicating with the public and OE10 which is safe supportive learning um environment. I would like to end on another positive note by recognizing that teacher appreciation week 2026 is celebrated in the month of May. And if you treat it like I treat my birthday, the entire month is a celebration. I hope everyone was able to check out the great slideshow of photos on social media taken by our communication staff that celebrated teachers across all of our schools. They're very diligent about making sure they go to all 38 schools and have representation of all those schools. So to our evergreen teachers, thank you
008for choosing to dedicate your time, effort, and energy to educating our community's greatest treasure, our children, including mine, who happens to be a senior this year. Thank you for prioritizing your time to plan engaging, relevant lessons for your students, communicating with families, and finding ways to build positive relationships with your students. Thank you to our teachers who strive every day to create a sense of belonging for each one of our students and to provide the support, the interventions and learning experiences needed to create success for all. As I was reading the end of the year message from our special services administrators to staff, I thought what they wrote really applied to all teachers in our district and they beautifully shared what I would have wanted to share so maybe not so eloquently as what they
009wrote. They wrote, "As we move into May, we want to recognize the tremendous work occurring across buildings as teams balance instruction, evaluations, IEP meetings, transition planning, and end of year responsibilities. Thank you for your continued commitment to students, families, and one another during this especially busy time of year. May is an important opportunity to ensure that systems, supports, and services are positioned for a strong finish to the school year while also proactively planning for summer and the transition into 2026 27. Consistency, collaboration, and thoughtful implementation remain essential as we work to support students in inclusive student centered environments. So, wrapping this up, I want to say thank you and happy National Teacher Month. This concludes my superintendent report for the evening. Thank you. >> Thank you, Dr. Maloney. The next item on our agenda is
010a presentation, a teaching and learning and equity update. Good evening, Dr. Fox. Hold on. Good. Tonight I have a winter sports review. Tonight, as part of that review, I'd like to recognize the success, commitment, and hard work of all student athletes across Evergreen Public Schools and extend appreciation to the many coaches and families who support these opportunities for students. As director of student services, Kale Piland previously shared, extracurricular activities and athletics play an important role in advancing the goals of our district strategic plan, particularly our commitment to building a culture of safety, belonging, and student engagement. Our strategic plan calls on us to ensure students feel connected, valued, empowered, and supported in their school communities. Athletics provides one of the most visible and impactful opportunities for students to build relationships, develop confidence, strengthen leadership skills,
011and experience a sense of belonging beyond the classroom. Tonight, I would like to highlight the Evergreen High School girls basketball team. This season, the team won the GSHL 3A League Championship and brought home the first state tournament trophy in school history. That That could be a full round of applause. They finished sixth in the state. Their success reflects not only athletic excellence, but also teamwork, perseverance, school pride, and the positive culture being built within Evergreen athletics programs. Congratulations to the Evergreen High School girls basketball team. Next, I would like to congratulate Union High School head wrestling coach John Gadino, who was recently inducted into the Washington State Wrestling Coaches Association Hall of Fame. Insert applause there. Coach Kadina has served as Union's head wrestling coach since the school opened and has helped build a most
012respected wrestling program highlighted by the girls program winning the 2019 state championship. You know, I just noticed that it sounds like the girl athletes are featured tonight as really being significant in our recognition. More importantly, Coach Gadino's leadership has positively impacted generations of students through mentorship, high expectation, and a commitment to student growth both on and off the mat. We're grateful for the dedication and leadership of coaches like Coach Gadino, and for the many staff members throughout our district who invest their time and energy into creating meaningful opportunities for students. At your next board meeting on May 26th, the teaching, learning, and equity update will feature an a new academic spotlight and we will recognize the winners of the learn here heroes award. This concludes the TLE update for this evening. >> Thank you, Dr.
013Fox. Are there any questions for Dr. Fox from the board? >> Appreciate it. >> Great. Thank you. >> Okay. The next item on the agenda is public comments. Any community member wishing to address the board may do so during the designated time on the agenda for public comments. Comments are to be directed to the board of directors as a whole and may not be addressed to any individual member of the board, the administrative staff, or the audience. Although the board will not engage in dialogue, the board chair may ask a speaker a clarifying question or follow up at a later time on an issue raised during public comment. As general reminder, each speaker has a maximum of three minutes. There is no mechanism whereby a speaker can donate some or all of their time to
014another speaker and no individual may speak more than once per regular meeting. Finally, please state your name and your district affiliation if any. We'll start with our um online commenters. The first person on the list is Angie Bunda. Angie, are you here? And you can hear it. Can you hear us? Go ahead, please. Should make sure the audio is okay, we'll move to Adam Aguilera. Um, Adam, can you hear us? >> Yes. Can you hear me? >> Yes, we can hear you. Go ahead, please. >> Thank you. Uh, my name is Adam Aguilera and I'm speaking as a member of the Evergreen uh, education association. Since August of 23, 2024, the superintendent has had three major opportunities to do the right thing. Let's count them. Opportunity one. In spring 2024, I raised concerns about unjust
015enrichment by chief operations officer Jana Gomes and her district bargaining team. Interim superintendent Maloney heard my appeal twice, most recently on October 10th, 2024. At my appeal hearing, former payroll employee Danny Stevenson served as my witness and raised serious allegations about the COO's suppression of internal controls, potential fraud, and a climate of fear and retaliation. It is important to note that none of that was reported to the state auditor's office. Opportunity two. On January 24th, 2025, Dr. Maloney received the audit entrance packet, an SAO engagement letter for the 2023 2024 accountability audit. Those documents spelled out her duties, including reporting failures of internal controls, designing controls to detect fraud, and quote, promptly reporting knowledge of any allegations of fraud under RCW43.09.185. from January through March 2025. She could have reported the September 4th, 2023 supplemental
016contracts to the auditor. She did not. To be fair, Dr. Maloney was busy that quarter interviewing to become the permanent superintendent. Opportunity three. On February 10th, 2026, the superintendent stated publicly and unequivocally that the state auditor's office had reviewed the September 4th, 2023 supplemental contracts and uh found them to be in compliance with the law. That is still a false statement that the superintendent had made and the SAO had had done no such thing. I think it's also important to note in the management letter that the superintendent was referring to, and I quote, "We tested two of these payments and found the district did not have support to show these contracts were approved before the employees worked, nor documentation to demonstrate that the work performed exceeded original contract responsibilities. In other words, these supplemental contracts
017in which Danny Stevenson was forcibly removed from his employment in the district and raising questions in the internal controls of the the district. Um what happened was that these contracts were never reviewed before the school board and the the state auditor's report confirms that which means that those supplemental contracts did not come from a place of public accountability and transparency to the public and that they are incredibly problematic. Considering that in all the time that has passed since then, there has been no revealing to the state auditor's office until now that those contracts. >> Adam, thank you for your comments. Your time is expired. >> We can move to uh Angie Bunda if she's ready. >> Hello, Angie. Can you hear us? >> I can hear you. Can you hear me? >> Yes. Go ahead,
018please. >> All right. Um, well, that's my name. At the April 21st, 2026 board meeting, Director Gary Wilson said in his board comments, the district will be meeting with the Washington State Auditor's Office or the SAO on Friday, May 8th of this year for their exit interview with the accountability audit. It's understood this exit meeting occurred and this meeting was significant as the auditors would be reviewing those contentious 2023 supplemental contracts. The fact that the SEO had to go back into the subject matter of what should have been covered in last year's accountability audit highlights the fact that Superintendent Dr. Maloney's February 10th, 2026 statement regarding those contracts was false. The SAO may or may not address this in their final report, but it is a fact her statements are false. Why is it a
019big deal? The fact that the SEO is reviewing these contracts now as opposed to repeating their findings from the last FY24 audit proves that these contracts were not reviewed during that year and the additional delay and cost associated with it. It's been multipied mult verified multiple ways. There's an email confirmation from the state auditor who conducted the FY24 accountability audit and the September 4th, 2023 supplemental contracts were not part of that audit. A public records request produced in five months of emails from September of 24 to March of 25 between the ESD and SAO has been reviewed and there's no evidence that those contracts were provided or requested during the FY24 time period. So Dr. Dr. Maloney was in charge of directing the FY24 audit and she would have been most the most knowledgeable person
020on whether these contracts and the disabling of those controls regarding them was brought up during that audit because it was her duty to report such things to the SAO. In the engagement letter, Dr. Dr. Maloney was informed that she had a duty to design and follow effective controls to prevent and detect fraud, theft, and loss, and to report to the SEO any knowledge of any fraud, allegations of fraud, or sus suspected fraud involving management, employees, or others in accordance with RCW4109185. So, what did she know? Well, she was present at the appellet hearing back on 1010 2024, where multiple witnesses gave her testimony about the internal controls being suppressed. She also received an email from me in 2025 January requesting an investigation into these supplemental contracts. So, it's a fact that the superintendent failed to
021report and then tried to recover it up. So, what can the school board do? Well, it's the school board's duty under policies GC1 and GC7 to take action. At this point, many questionable things have occurred, and it's become a pattern that our board directors have ignored similar misconduct. But some of the board directors through their choices have created community outrage which is growing with each failed opportunity to hold people accountable. To continue ignoring what's factually proven to be false and in violation of the law in this situation will further erode public confidence and trust of our elected board directors and by extension the way our tax dollars are being used. This is a moment that will define the true intentions and direction of our elected school board and significantly impact the future of our districts.
022So the question is will our time is expired. Our next speaker uh if there are no others online. >> Okay. Our next speaker on the list is Camille Lman. Camille, are you here? Online. Okay. Could you uh can you hear us Camille? Camille Lman. Okay, it's all right. We'll go to the next speaker and uh return to Camille Lman. Um before we close public comments, Lee Miller. Good evening. >> There's a lot I want and need to say, but since I only get three minutes and I work in this district, I'm going to just stick with the facts. How operations are currently being run isn't working. At my school, students who absolutely need one-on-one support due to not only academics, but behavior as well are being paired with other students due to lack of staff
023and because the district told us to. Keep in mind, they've never worked with our students and they don't know their plans. As a result of this doubling of students who need one-on-one support, staff and students have been getting seriously injured more often and unsafe behaviors have increased. For injuries, we're talking about concussions and strangulations, not just a bruise or bite mark. We can prevent this by giving the taxpayer money to students and student facing staff. This looks like a reasonable salary and benefits for our classified staff and more resources and materials for our students. This will help not only get staff hired, but get them to stay. This will also keep our students and staff safe. Another thing that will help us hire and keep staff safe is free. It's respect. All school year, studentf
024facing staff have been getting emails whenever they're sick and or injured stating that they don't have the right to take time off even when the employee sent HR their doctor's note. One of my friends who is a pareducator got a concussion and gave her or gave HR her doctor's note. They expected her to be back at work two days later despite the doctor's orders be to be out for one week. Another one of my friends who is a pareducator at a different school got in trouble for using her sick leave appropriately. Yeah, that's correct. The union had to get involved to make sure the district followed policy. This doesn't look like respect to me. I've watched people quit because of the lack of respect we receive from the school district. All of this impacts students
025greatly. In order to put students first and keep them safe, the district must give students and student facing staff the resources that our taxpayers are supposed to be paying for, which includes livable wages and decent benefits for classified staff, materials and other resources for students, and respect for student facing staff. Thank you for your consideration. >> Thank you for your comments. >> Next speaker is Monica Parker. Monica, are you here? Monica Parker. We'll move on then to Kendall Teeman. Howdy. >> Good afternoon. >> Evening. >> Uh today, just because transparency has become a casualty to other interests, it doesn't mean you all, the members of the board, still can rebuild the trust of the public. It is Tuesday, May 12, 2026, and the state auditor's report has not been made public yet. in the last
026three years has it been out in late March and early April. Director Wilson told us at the last board meeting that the ACID meeting between the ESC and the SEAO relating to the accountability audit was to be held on May 8th, 2026. Apparently, this meeting was held in secret and away from the public. The state auditor's office audit entrance packet which is in the past been sent out to you all states on page 304 in the packet document from the prior year. At the conclusion of the audit, we will summarize the results at the exit conference. We will also discuss any significant difficulties or disagreements encountered during the audit and their resolutions. However, 4 days after the exit conference has been held, there is no public access to the document from the SAO relating to
027fiscal year 924 to 83125 accountability audit of the ESD. It is a fact that transparency has become a casualty and the need to control the narrative. But the records are clear on certain facts. Although we don't know what is contained in the audit, the record is clear and we do know the following. The superintendent on send on February 10th, 2026 at 18 minutes and 36 seconds stated the following as fact that the state auditor had examined the district's financial practices for fiscal year 24. And she went on to say that the state auditor determined that quote no material non-compliance was identified including in regards to supplemental contracts from Miss Gums and the others on the bargaining team for that year. Regardless of what is contained in the in this 2425 audit, the following facts are
028also true. The superintendent never provided notice to the state auditors about the September 4th, 2023 supplemental contracts, although she had a duty to do so. Last year, the SAO accountability audit for the period 9123 to 83124 did not address, analyze, or examine the 94 2023 supplemental contracts. The current audit was delayed in part because the SAO became aware of the 942023 supplemental contracts in early 2026. the superintendent statements on February 10th, 2026 about the SAO examining Miss Gums and the others supplemental contracts for fiscal year 23 to24 were false. If you are highly paid by the taxpayers, there is reasonable expectation that there should be accountability for lying about the accountability audit to the public. the superintendent should resign because she has violated the public's trust and failed to do her duties. Thank you. >>
029Thank you for your comments. >> Our next speaker is Kristen Edmston. >> Good evening, Kristen. >> Good evening. >> Uh my name is Kristen Edmmon. she her. I teach at Evergreen High School. Uh I am a member of the Evergreen Education Association and the bargaining support team. Um this evening I'm here to give you a quick bargaining update uh for the board and the community. Um again, just a quick update. Uh yesterday, Monday, uh May 11th was our first official bargaining meeting between the EA and the district. Both teams presented proposals and/or initial interests uh including rationale. Uh more proposals will be presented at the next meeting which is Friday, May 15th. That's all I've got for you. Thank you. >> Thank you, Kristen. I see that Camille Lman has arrived. Um please come forward.
030Hi, my name is Camille Lman. Thanks for for letting me still speak. Have a PTA meeting and a little league baseball game tonight. Busy Mayber as they call it. Um, and wow, isn't that crazy? I got that same exact management letter from the SAO. Uh, that was relatively um misrepresented uh in the sections that were read, which is super interesting, but not quite surprising. Um, so as many others have already said tonight, on April 21st, Director Wilson say that there's an exit interview scheduled on Friday, May 8th. Um, and earlier this year, the state auditor's office, the SAO for short, confirmed in writing that those contracts had not been provided, those infamous supplemental contracts had not been provided to four district administrators, were not analyzed, considered, or reviewed during that audit. Um but then a
031public records request later produced approximately 223 emails uh which exchanged between the SAO and Evergreen School District during the audit process for the school year 2324 which is those supplemental contracts were were within. Um, and after reviewing those emails and attachments, it became clear that the superintendent and director Wilson and director Weatherspoon and the rest of the board received audit guidance documents that explained expectations surrounding confidentiality disputes and the audit process itself. Um, now as of as of today, as has already been shared, no report for this year has been released, but there was that management letter that was so interestingly timed with exactly when this meeting started. Crazy. call me crazy uh but that seems like someone uh is trying to control the narrative rather than relying on transparency and accountability. And the management
032letter was also worded very interestingly and I really encourage uh everyone to actually to to request that public record and really analyze it. Um I my day job is working for an accounting firm and I support our audit team and language is very very specific in how you have to word certain things and uh there was some contradictions in that management letter but again very interesting because uh as as was stated that the uh the district did not have support to show these contracts were approved before the employees worked even though they were signed on September 4th but dated through Sep September 5th. So again, very interesting, very strange, very weird. And I think that the public needs to again public schools need public answers and uh the board is is not providing that accountability.
033They are not fulfilling their duty that they are supposed to be doing. And uh I'm a little jumbled because it's all over the place. I'm driving here from a PTA meeting where I was elected vice president of our of our board of our PTA board. Very excited about this next year. Um and again on my way to a little league meeting and it's just it's very disappointing that now there's an additional agency trying to cover something up. So uh the community should request an independent audit. >> Thank you for your comments. >> This concludes uh I got them all right. Everybody on the list? Yep. Okay. Didn't want to miss anybody who signed up. Uh this concludes the public comments section of the meeting. Uh our next item on the agenda is the board consent
034agenda. Is there a motion? >> I'll make a a motion to approve the board consent agenda. >> Second. >> Director Bogra has moved to approve the board consent agenda and director Wilson has seconded. Um all in favor I I motion carries. Our next agenda item is the superintendent consent agenda. >> Is there a motion? >> I'll move for approval of the superintendent consent agenda. >> Second. >> Once again, Director Boengra, seconded by Director Wilson to approve the superintendent consent agenda. All in favor? I I motion carries. Next agenda item is board comments. Get my scroll bar down there. Are there any comments uh from members of the board? >> Yeah, thank you, Rob. Um I thought we had already approved the uh board consent agenda. I guess it was just the board agenda, but I
035I probably would have wanted to pull off the standard preventative maintenance um agreement and maybe let Dr. Maloney share what she shared with me in an email uh about the savings there. Do you remember that? Yeah. >> Oh, okay. Yeah. Sorry. I can read your email if you would like or I just thought it'd be good, you know, for the public to hear. Oh, let me find it. >> Sorry. >> Was this the CTA roof rehab project or something else? >> No, something else. >> I think it was the bid. >> No. >> Um, it had to do um I asked if it had been put out to bid and what the previous contract was because the new contract was a five-year contract. This is for the elevators maintenance agreement and it was the new
036contract was $5,080 a month and I asked what the previous one was and it was actually $9,317.51 a month and it covered 43 elevators for 24 sites and it was not put out to bid. You know, you had mentioned um a new vendor approached us with a maintenance agreement that allows us to reduce overall operational costs while maintaining service expectations. The savings with the new contract, monthly savings, $3,63751. Take that over 12 months and five years, you got $218,250 in savings for doing basically the same uh agreement, you know, and I just thought that would be good to highlight to people. Um, so it's it's a positive. So, I mean, we need some positives. Um, I do also I'm going to need to go back and review um your opening comments, uh, Dr. Dr. Maloney,
037I wasn't sure if you mentioned that the supplemental contracts were found to be legal. I'm not sure if I heard that, but it seems pretty clear in the audit the management letter that they were um not in according to state law and the state constitution. Um we those things needed to be done prior to the work being performed and they were not. Um I do want to find out can we put that management letter on the website? Would that be possible or talk about okay or you know the entire report I mean it's public people are going to get you know if we don't they'll be doing public records requests for it anyway. Um, but it would be good to be totally transparent as was was mentioned and I I still have some major concerns
038and I sent you guys an an email right before the board meeting and um I think an a second legal um review would be good um and outside of uh Stevens Clay frankly. Um, so I would like an impartial uh legal review of that audit report and I imagine Detective Alli may want to get a copy of the management letter and see what that does to his um his review of the supplemental contract. So thank you. Oh, um let's see from other well first um again congratulations Evergreen High School basketball for the state championship placing sixth place and um also uh Lee Miller had mentioned about um needing more onetoone uh counseling with the the students for academic and behavioral issues and really I guess we're at sounds like in her school at least at
039least one to two and it's she mentioned it's causing concussions and strangulization. Wow, that's a serious um so yeah, maybe we need to I don't know if that's first this is our first knowledge of it or I imagine it something's been shared in the past, but it's definitely something to you know review and and see what the concerns are there and what the solution would be. So, I know we're always looking for more PAR educators and, you know, financially we're, you know, things are tight, but um, you know, there's got to be we can't have our employees suffering concussions and strangilization because we're don't have enough employees there. So, um, yeah. Thank you. Uh just a couple of quick updates for me. I spent last weekend uh with the legislative committee from WASDA where we
040went through the proposed um legislative positions from the school directors across the state. Um and we were going through them and did the uh what the legislative committee does and basically gives a do pass or do not pass recommendation for this fall's general assembly. We're still not done with that work because there was a lot of proposals that were set to archive. So, we still have um more work to do at the end of this month. Um but it's been really interesting work. There's a lot of um work to be done really around unfunded mandates. I know that this board's talked a lot about that, making sure that the the state does not continue to um drive down legislation that continues to be unfunded. Um, and then another thing that's on a fun note, tomorrow
041I'll be attending the teaching academy class at Heritage High School and um, talking with the students. So, I'm really excited for that. Thanks, Julie. Um, let me get my calendar back. I'd share that. Uh I guess since we met last uh I was able to go was I can't remember when that school school visit was to Pioneer Elementary. Oh yeah. Uh I got a chance to visit um Pioneer Elementary uh in the last few weeks and was able to see the dual language program in action. uh and uh uh help honor a group of students, a class uh who had uh basically won the attendance contest by having uh more kids come to the come to school in their class than the other classes. And I'm I want to commend Pioneer uh for their attendance.
042Uh it's up up above 91% uh from day to day uh which is really good and I'm grateful to um Jenny Hayworth and her staff uh for the environment that they've created for kids there. Let's see. I was in attendance at the um SAO exit meeting on the 8th of March. Um my understanding is that SAO is going to release their report to the public later on this week. Is is that what you gathered? >> Yeah, we think it's tomorrow or Thursday. Um but uh while they're um the people attending the meeting with us um we're certain to point out that we received the final report in our email uh shortly before the meeting began and uh that the public report will not be too far along behind and it'll be available on the website.
043Uh but they do like to send it to the board first and then make it available to the public and that'll all happen this week. Um and yeah, that's about all I have. today. Any other comments or if not that was the final agenda item? A the time is 6:13 and the meeting stands adjourned. Thank you.
