Usually if they don't work in a year, our rule of thumb is if they haven't worked in a year. >> Okay. >> We have a policy for that. >> It's just that's procedure >> and updated because um a timeline updated because we have updated procedures, updated references for her and everything because I call in reference checks and things. >> Yep. >> Do they have to go through the background check and all that stuff again four years?

[Music] Didn't Jordan say he wouldn't be here last time we had a meeting? >> Why? I'm not sure. >> I don't know. I thought he was going to be here, but I thought he was going to be on vacation. >> He was on vacation previous one of the times before. Yes. >> Okay. >> That was when he's in the mountains. He didn't take his wife. She's working. >> Yes. I was going to say that also. [Music] >> All right. Call the school board meeting for the school district to order. Uh, roll call. All members are present except Jordan Barts at this time. Your shirts on
003the floor. Be careful. >> I brought that in case it was cold in here. >> Yeah, I got shorts on. >> All right. Uh, next up is our uh, word financial audit and that is Scott and Derek. Nope, sorry. seasoning. Scott, >> I didn't I didn't ask for anything. So, >> you did not. >> I did not. >> Okay. Scott, you ask for anything? >> I did. I got a ton of education from Deb. So, that was cool. Um, in my first uh first time doing this. So, one of the things that jumped out at me while I was looking at the sheet that she printed out was the fact that in one month we had the same bill for the same services and the same amount of money. Um what it turned out to
004be is in June they paid the May bill and then before June ended they paid the June bill to get it in before the July 1. So nothing burger. The other was uh miscellaneous purchases for Glenwood City Hardware. Some of them were, you know, there was a whole bunch of them and I just wanted to see what they were. And so Deb provided a complete breakdown of every single miscellaneous purchase that the school district makes in the course of a month and it's about that thick. >> Yeah. >> Um and it's just listed as miscellaneous purchases but available if we want to check into it. >> All was good. >> All right. Thanks. Next up is the approval of the agenda. So I'll entertain a motion for the approval of the agenda. So moved by
005Jody. Is there a second? >> I will second. >> Second by Chuck. Any further discussion? Hear none. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Post say no. Motion car. Next up is our open forum time. And this is an opportunity for our community to uh share anything that they have. Do we have anything to share? Okay. Well, thanks for coming. All right. Next up is our con consent agenda. We have quite a few items on that. as a minutes from the June 12th 25. >> I I I did find out that we do not have to read them out item by item if you do not want to. >> Oh, all right. >> If you want to, you can, but we don't have to. >> Okay. >> Sorry to interrupt. >> That's perfectly
006fine. Let me put it this way. Are there any items on the consent agenda that anybody would like to have discussion about? >> I did have one question. There was I think it's item Q an approval for volleyball practice on Labor Day. I think that's the only sport that's asking for approval for practice on Labor Day. Have we ever not approved practice on the holidays? And I'm just wondering if >> we've always um pretty much they have to get approval. We've never really denied it, but it is not a mandatory practice. >> So this would be optional. >> Yes. Does it say it on there? >> It doesn't. We should make sure it does because I agree with you, Derek. I think it's that we're taking our holidays and using them for breakfast. >> Well,
007and we just talked about two months ago how we have unlimited contact days during the summer. >> Yeah. and when are we going to allow the kids to be kids? >> And granted, right, there's always exceptions and there's reasons and I didn't know because I don't have any kids in volleyball, but I wanted to at least throw it out there that >> Yeah, usually it does say it's optional, but >> can um >> a lot of times those are because a game will follow on Tuesday. >> Sure. >> Do you want to try to make it? >> Yeah, we should reuse that. It's optional. Yeah. Yeah. I would I would amend that uh that Q be changed to reflect that it's an optional volleyball practice on Labor Day. >> I second that. >> Okay. So,
008Derek has made a motion. Um, >> sorry. Maybe I should start with I'm making a motion to approve the consent agenda with the exception of an amendment to correct the item Q. >> Yep. >> You got that, Christa. Okay. >> Yep. >> All right. So, Dererick's made a motion. Jod has second it approving the consent agenda with the uh adding that the uh volleyball practice for item Q is optional and not mandate mandatory. All right, any other discussion? Okay, hearing none. All those in favor say I. >> I post say no. Motion's carried. That makes it go by pretty smoothly. You don't have to read them all. 30 of them. >> This is true. All right. Now, we can move to our uh business items. Uh item A is the approval of the board of
009education meeting schedule calendar for 2526. [Music] So, is there any thoughts on how that's been presented? And >> you know, I I see the um you know, that he talks about, you know, um listed in in there um with the first one being in October. Um and then not another one until like quarterly, >> April. Yeah. Um, so >> I think the only free thing for me is like where um these are section >> January sorry >> these are sections like these deep dives are in sections or in in concentrated areas and I think that's that's great but what about the stuff that happens through the month and through the thing where's the dialogue and the the information other than what I'm getting things prior to Um I think we talked about doing week he's
010going to do weekly updates to us. >> Yes. >> That's how we're going to get it done. >> That's how we're going to get our information that we can right. Is that what we talked about at that one? Lisa was doing it. I was must have been gone. >> Yeah, you were talked about that one. Um he talked about upping his communication with us more weekly so that we had the information as things were coming along so so wasn't waiting long but the deep dives into the facilities would have to undergo. >> Okay that that was the only that was the only concern that I had was how do you get information? How do we have dialogue? How do we have that interaction? And um that was the my concern. So what I guess it's
011I depending on when he returns the weekly updates to us if we wanted to request something we put on the meeting we go to you and ask for you to tell us something about him putting an extra one on the meeting right for the regular monthlys if we want to deep dives into something >> yes if there's yeah and yeah and I just have to >> put it tell it >> so I think maybe making that a priority that we do if we want something more further discussed based on weekly updates that we make sure we put it agenda for the next for the next meeting. >> Yeah. >> Yep. Um No, I don't I don't have any questions about it. I know if if there's something that comes up that needs to be taken
012care of with the meeting, we'll um post an agenda and have a meeting, >> right? >> You know, that's OP, >> right? Um, so I'm I'm fine. >> So, is everybody good with the proposal? >> Yep. >> All right. Um, will someone make a motion to accept that schedule? >> So, move. >> Motion's made by Steve. Do I have a second? >> Second by Derek. Any further discussion? Hearing none. All those in favor say I. >> I. Say no. Motion carried. Next up, is there a special education file update and Aaron? That is you. >> Yes. Um, so Miss Sonni Barker has been going through files and updating and just kind of checking for any errors and making sure we're in compliance. And the reason this came up is because as we're working on the
013evaluations for the last couple of years, we've just noticed um some check marks and some things missing from files and we want to make sure that everything is up to date and accurate as as things should be. Um, and that's been in the previous two years that we've just noticed this as um, students are coming up for either re-evaluations or um, things like that that we just want to make sure everything's in compliance. And that could be from um, things like um, as we going into an evaluation, one of our biggest questions is um, does parents improve in input on things? And it might have an answer of no input or NA. Well, that's a huge component when we're when we're coming in. It might be something as reading at home. Well, instead of having
014NA, we want anything. It might be student doesn't or child at home doesn't like to look at books or parents don't read, then we don't have time to or anything like that, but we want all that input in and that has to be documented. Um other things might be um if they are switching from O or SD to SLD um in a certain component in that IEP that needs to be addressed and that goes the same with the evaluation. It needs to be addressed in there. It needs to be documented to make sure that everything is accurate. Previous interventions, if they had birth to three, that should be a previous intervention. We want to make sure everything is. And if you know Bonnie, she loves that type of thing. So, she's like, I want to
015make sure all these files are accurate. And it could have been a complete mistake just to look through and didn't make a check or didn't input something, but it also is for other reasons that these files were not looked over before they were put in the system. So, we want to make sure that is done correctly and Bonnie has been coming in to make sure that's done. Um but also as we are going through these, this is why I spend a lot of time after meetings going through all these documents. Um and it takes a little bit to do that. Um and sometimes the teachers um are like, you know, why don't I have my paperwork back yet? Well, we had five meetings this week and it takes me a little bit to get through
016this paperwork. So, one of the things that we are really doing is making sure that we're getting through all this stuff and all of it's done. Um, so one of her comments was looking at it and making sure, but she's very excited about how the last two years are taking not much time to go through because it's done the way we are. >> So, that's where we're moving towards is making sure So, I had a question reading through her her email um talking about a a file from 2013 or 2014. Is that >> still a student that's in the district or are we looking at files for students that aren't in the district anymore? >> Everyone that she's looking at are current students. >> Okay. So, it might have been when they were in >>
017second grade, now they're in >> when she's looking at them. So when she looks at a file, she starts at the back of the file and works forward to current years now. But that's why when I mention birth to three, she's starting at their very earliest evaluation and working forward because we look at when they are first identified >> for needs because you look at their earliest history because it starts then. >> Yep. >> And everything that we do to get them to the point that they're at now. >> Okay. So it's just files for current. Okay. And it's safe to assume that some of the ones that are no longer in the district have graduated. >> Yeah. >> Or they they might have needed some help, too, but they weren't their files. >> Yes.
018>> Yeah. But we don't we're not concerned about them any >> Okay. And then they're going to be good. >> They're good now. >> Good job. Thank you. >> We're working diligently. the same and that goes for, you know, making sure that our staff has training on making sure that we know what to do and that they're helping the process so the paperwork that I'm that we're getting is continually getting better and they're not missing the check marks, you know, and they're knowing what to do to make sure it's all documented correctly. >> Is does a lot of this paperwork involve the parents? Is that or who who would be driving a lot of people? >> All the case managers and those are the teachers. >> Okay. The paras um do not do the actual
019paperwork, but they might do progress monitoring and support the students, but they're not doing the paperwork itself. >> Did you say parents or parents? They're >> educators. Okay. I I sorry, I misunderstood.
