Peter Turkish treasure. I I opposed. Congratulations. All right. Next up is uh let's see here. Setting the schoolboard monthly meeting. We've traditionally kept it the second Monday of each month and we've changed the time to 6:30 p.m. Does that still work for everybody? I move we keep it at that. Okay, there's a motion on the floor. Is there a second? Second. Second. Okay. All those in favor say I. I. I. Opposed. All right. The date and time of the meeting has been set. Election of CISA 2 delegate. school board is looking for a CISA 2 representative for the annual delegated convention on
004Tuesday, June 19th at 6:30m and this would take place at the Whitewater Innovation Center of course in Whitewater. So, do we have a nomination for that position? I'll nominate Roseanne Han. Okay, we have a nomination. Is there a second? Second. All right, any other nominations? Okay. All those in favor of Roseanne as the CISA 2 representative say I I opposed. All right. I have to say I did go to the convention for the meeting last year a couple of them and the one the police wouldn't let me go. They stopped me in the uh when I was going to make the big turn, that kind of odd turn to get to the place and uh there was something going on. There were two accidents on that little road and so they said, "You turn around
005and go home because you you won't make the meeting anyway." So I did. that I'm not going to argue with the police, you know. Okay. Next up is committee assignments. So, what we'll do again is if you could please um by Friday just shoot me an email of what your uh preferred uh committee assignments would be and then I will send it out after that. Um if you can get that to me by Friday at noon, that would be appreciated. Um Okay. Are they the same committees? Yeah, we will keeping this standard six and then I think I'd like us to consider a uh legislative liaison committee that I think would be a committee of the whole structure. I think everybody deserves to have a voice and a seat at that table. So um once
006we get that we'll bring this back for approval at the May board meeting. So will we talk about the legislative committee at that time? Yeah. Yes, we can do that. As opposed to talking about it now. We can talk about it now. Absolutely. It's I think the intent um I think a lot of us have been actually asking for something like this um over the last excuse me last 5 years. So, um, if there's any objections to it, would love to hear, but I'm just looking at it from a a lens of increasing our our footprint with our folks in Madison here on our turf as opposed to going up there. So, I think the more that we can get them to meet with us and in our our district, our buildings, I think that's
007more of a benefit for us so they can actually see what's happening. Um but again totally open to suggestions here and I would suggest that we all write to our uh people in Madison. I do that all the time you know being being part of the state committee because they do listen you know I mean maybe they don't always vote the way you want them to but you know if you tell them many enough times enough times they're going to think about it and maybe change their minds. So we all have the opportunity to do that as citizens and as schoolboard members. So doing that in conjunction with a committee of of the whole or do we want it as a committee of the whole? I'm good either way. I'm just Right. Yeah, that's a
008good question. I think it's a good idea, Taylor. Um, yeah, that whether it should be a committee of the whole versus just a third three person committee. I guess I'd suggest maybe it makes sense to have a committee who could maybe coordinate bringing legislators in, but then ideally we'd have the whole board meet with the legislators as legislators. I think everyone's kind of nodding. Does that seem make sense? That'd be fine. Yeah, we've had that. Yeah. Yeah. Because I was going to ask how we determine who and when and what. Yeah. I hate to have three people, a minority on the board, minority of members on the board, you know, specifically meeting with legislators. It'd be more powerful ever having everyone at the table. And that's the intent I'm sure. Yeah. Right. I guess I'd
009make a motion. I think let's uh establish a legislative layon committee for that purpose. Kind of just talked about. All right. There's a motion on the floor. Hold on. You going to say something, Joe? Yeah. Could the board governance committee be the one that's setting that up? Yeah, we could do that. We could accomplish that, I think, in board governance. Um, that's still committee instead of a separate committee. Would that still work for you? Sure. Is it board governance and communications right now? Yeah. In terms of like setting the meetings up but then still having everybody in committee the whole Yeah. Right. Um I would think the purpose Yeah. would be to coord or to communicate with legislators and try to get them to come to Burlington like you said. Correct. Yeah. And one less
010committee, right? I mean that's fewer committees. Well, and we did do that last year and it was pretty I mean the whole board was there to be able to talk to them. Right. Mhm. Okay. So, there's a motion on the floor. Second. Okay. All those in favor say I. I opposed. Okay. Motion passes. Um, okay. So, again, just to recap, if you can give give me your committee selections by Friday at noon, that would be appreciated. Just to be clear, then we're we're having a legislative lay on committee because I think we just voted for that as a separate committee. I think there was some talk about having that function be handled by board governance. We could use that as to set the date. Like I think like like Noah was talking about. I mean
011I'm I'm open to whatever. I I think it's important that we have something in some capacity whether that's through board governance or whether that's through um a separate committee that could be committee the whole or committee of three. It's up it's up to the board. Given Jill's dis or point that maybe board governance could hand it and if their sole function is just to schedule meetings with legislators may I'd make a motion to have the board governance to disband the legislative leaison committee the shortest living living committee in the history of this district and have the board governance committee handle that function. Okay. Second. All right. It's been motioned has been made and seconded to disband the legislative leazison committee and to replace it with the function of the board governance committee. Okay. All those
012in favor say I. Or was there I I Oh, sorry. Okay. Motioned by Peter, seconded by Marlo, just for the record. Um, okay. We've all voted. Opposed. All right. That's great. Uh, next up is school board work. Um, I'm sorry. Nope. Yeah. Uh policy policy number 0143.1. This is just for Reference if I can click it. I'm out of it now. Can you read it? Sorry. Okay. All right. Okay. Looks like there is no action on this, but if you could just if we could please remember to review this policy. Next is schoolboard workshops. So, this one we'll need to get everybody to get their calendars out and try to coordinate um three dates. Yep. So there um because we had the operational referendum, there's just topics that we have um not put off, I
013would say, but uh tried to uh not focus on quite as much while we were focusing on the operational referendum. So there's just things I put it in the notes to the board uh last week in regard to all the different topics that we'd like to touch on. So looking to schedule at least three different meetings from usually we've held workshops from 6:00 to 8:00. Again, open to the time frame, but that's usually when we've been holding them. And then at that 8:00 time, we would stop. So it wouldn't go past those two hours. And then if we need to schedule another one, we would just schedule another one. But if we could get three of them on the calendar now, that would be awesome. Um, so let's see. looking. How about what about May
01420th? May 19th. May 20th be able to Noah. I'm that week. I'm 19th through the 21st. So those Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday wouldn't I'm available. But the 22nd that I can What about May 22nd?

So, it'll be 6:30, 8:30. I'll send an invite right now. Okay. Look like the next one was going into June. June 5th. I could do June 5th. Sure. We have a June 5th on the table, everybody. June 5th. I have a conflict. I have a conflict. Oh, June 5th is off the table. June 5th off the table. I have a conflict. June 3rd through the 5th.
016So, just to save us from visiting those dates. What about the 10th? June 2nd. The 10th. I have a conflict to that one, too. Sorry. That whole week is kind of bad for June 2nd. Ruth, you want to have two before the June board meeting or you don't want two? Um, we have to do the year end adjustments for this year and then you think that we're going to try not [Music] saying one just one workshop. I mean that first one out. Yeah, that'd be June's kind of ugly for me. Okay, we're going to hammer it out, Ruth. On there's any What about uh circling back to May 28th? Was that that was a that was a no. I'm out that day. Yeah, that would be an out for me. Okay. What about the week

So, but I I appreciate that's a lot of time, so you need to go go ahead without me. What's the topic for the second one? Well, it would kind of depend on when the dates fall and what is most urgent to discuss first. Okay. So, we're into the week of June 23rd. Do the 23rd? I could do any of those days except for the 25th. 23rd and 24th would work. Will or won't? Will. Okay. I'm good all that week. Hey, what can we do? The 23rd and the 24th. What if we do two in a row there?
018I could do that. I may I can I'm just schedule one tenative away for me. Both I guess if we need to. I can always cancel my county one. Okay.

020lots of stuff. We'll we'll set time frame limits on that one. Okay. That sound good? Yep. be a good organized meeting. Yes, we'll see how how organized it will be, right? Okay. All right. So, we're all set there. We are set. Next, uh I guess keep the calendars out the superintendent evaluation process. This is I guess would fall within our informal review since we did one in the fall and this uh seems like a great time to keep that momentum going. So, looking for a date in June if that works for folks. If we need to do it in July, that's fine, too. What about um pairing it with the June schoolboard meeting? Thank you. Yeah, we could do that. Could it be in close session and we could just have it at the end
021of the June 9th schoolboard meeting? Sounds like that. Okay. We're going to do that at 6 o'clock. Well, the Sorry, it's after the meeting. What am I saying? Yeah. Yep. We'll just do it at the end of the board meeting. Mhm. It's great. Since it's informal, is there anything we're filling out or is it just a I think it's where we talk and I I think it's just more of a a verbal check-in like how are things going? Okay. Um doesn't need to be anything, right? Yeah. Okay. All right. Uh next we are going to move into close session. So, I'm going to look for a motion per Wisconsin statute 19.851 C andF for consideration of administration's recommendations to isue to issue a preliminary notice of non-renewal to a staff member. So moved. Second. Motioned
022and seconded. All those in favor say I. I. I. Opposed. We are in close session. So fuel or
