001To the flag of the standy first item up is going to be the consent agenda. This is the meeting minutes for the last meeting and one employment for a high school teacher skill. Um any of these items can be separated and discussed separately or a motion together questions. Is there a motion to approve the consent agenda of this position? Second motion and a second. Any further discussion? All in favor say I. Any oppose? Say n. Passes. Next up is going to be our report on and possible adoption of the academic standards for 2526. There you go. I got it. It's um so this is in the annual notice in the standards of adoption. The only change from previous school years to this one is um on the third page. Um if you recall we actually
002came in um the late of a school or a high school course because of a change of dual credit at Madison College. Um so the business management co-op was or excuse me the Microsoft office for business applications. Um so that is the only change um because they change their dual credit. Um otherwise everything else. This is an action item. Is there a motion to approve? Is there a motion to approve the 256 academic standards as second? Motion and a second. Any further discussion? All in favor say I. I. Say n. Passes. And then sort of consideration for bids. M. Pepper. Yeah. So, originally we were going to bring new bids to the board. Um, but as a couple hours ago, I actually got a quote from our current vendor that we had done, Technology Plus.
003Um, they were actually able to meet the exact same price um just with a different manufacturer. So, instead of Lenovo, it's going to be an HP and um still the lowest bid um and it's same specs um same processor, same memory, everything. So really there's some action I am needing, you know, it's a different model um manufacturer model but exact same specs um on that and I still I do have three bits on that exact same but yeah when we received notice that it was going to be a different vendor that's when I said we need to bring it back to the board. It's the same price, same vendor. I think we're going to take no action on this tonight and call back. I forgot to mention that they weren't able to fulfill the quote
004just due to they went to do the order and all of the devices were gone. Um, it happens from time to time. We do a quote and then the resellers are run out of devices. So, I have one question on that. Just if we're switching to a different model, do you have um extras in there so that you have I guess I'm talk about spare parts. I think you buy some and then use those for spare parts for like screens and keyboards and things. Yeah, we do 20% spare stock um because it's cheaper than a warranty and it gives us enough spares to make it in four years. Okay. And it's built into this quote with the bottom. Yep. Okay. same exact same amount of devices. Any other questions? No. Thank you. And how quickly
005we move into suggested future topics. I don't necessarily, but it could be in here because we always talk about the budget as a future agenda topic. there was just a fair amount in the state budget uh that was passed that will impact our budget and I I just when I listened to capital chat was Friday um I just wrote down all the bunch of questions so just making sure that those addressed based on the new will have something ready for the July 28 we can also talk informally um you got the capital right now. Any other topics? Um board announcements. The only one I have um again at the January conference was I have to check my notes is doing the summit on AI and AI and education. It's supposed to be August 6. Um
006I still need research some details on it. If you're interested in it, let me know. And then Dr. Burns [Music] is certainly one of the leaders and we copied and so much from them. So happy to do education. So um I have one announcement. Um, if you check out the new website, it's the same address www.svogj.org. Um, it really is an update from a significant update from our previous vendor which is CMS for schools. Uh, and now we are using final site as the vendor. And about this time last year, we received a notice from the OCR that we had concern from a citizen about our website and its accessibility, especially for individuals with visual impairments. So, we went through a um through a volunteer resolution with the OCR and we fixed a bunch of
007things, but we found a lot of what was wrong with our website had to do with the vendor that we were using and talking to the person from OCR because frankly some of the uh the other problems they had with other schools, similar situation with that same vendor. So we looked at things we landed on final site as our new vendor and so you can imagine how difficult it can be to move from one vendor for a website to another. So there were certainly many people involved in this undertaking but there was someone that would be in spend hours and hours and hours I can't even estimate how many hours from January until the launch in July of the new website. The new website looks great. used well on a phone. It does have the
008accessibility um feature to make sure that it's easily accessible for people with especially within terms. You can imagine how that can be frustrating if that isn't working well on a website and then as a as a dad um I love the the lunch menu feature is a small thing. So, uh, but the person that was primarily in charge of that, so I put together a letter accommodation that you can see there. Um, I think we all know the specialness and the uniqueness and the talents uh that come with Valerie, but I wanted to take a minute to publicly recognize her. We recognize thank you for all this work. It's going to be uh going to be a nice change for our parents and the community and everyone that checks out the website. Uh and it's
009part of our working towards our strategic plan is our goal is making sure I want to say thank you to Valerie and on behalf of the boardation. Any other announcements? With that, I do see we have a few people in the audience. We're going to be going into close session as part of the regular meeting to discuss some personnel issues. Um, and then there'll be a brief break, then we'll open back up for the special meeting there. So, with that, is there a motion to convene in close session pursuant to Wisconsin statutes 19.85? 85 C discussions second motion second Mr. Yes. Mr. Yes. Mrs. Yes. Yes. Mr. Yes.
