001Okay, good evening everyone. I will call this meeting to order at 5:30 p.m. Heather, will you please uh take the role? >> Here I am here. >> And our statement of public notice. Megan, was this posted appropriately? Excellent. Now, uh entertain a a motion for item 1 C to approve the agenda. >> Okay. Any discussion on this item? >> Hearing none. All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Chair votes I. Motion carries. We'll do the pledge of allegiance. Mike, will you lead us in the pledge algiance to the flag of the stands nation? All right, we will move into item number three, recognition. Mike, I'm going to ask you to tee this up before I read the recognition. So, I'll hand this to you. >> Oh, sorry. Yeah. >> [laughter] >> Okay, [laughter]
002watch this. state championship Wisconsin. Whereas school posit. [applause] [laughter] I know. >> I did. I did. Are you sure? >> Oh yeah, right. I think I speak for the entire board when I say how much we enjoy the recognitions and uh got a lot to be proud of here at the district. Okay, we'll move on to item four, persons requesting to address members of the board of education. Megan, do we have anyone signed up for public comment? Okay. Okay, we'll move on to item five, communication, announcements, presentations 5A, the board presence report. uh start by by thanking our teachers and staff for a a great semester and getting our our students to the the winter break. I had the opportunity to attend the um Sound of Music play. Thought it was a fantastic job, a
003great reflection of uh how excellent our school is. Also attended the middle school and high school band concert. Was a really great time. And there's just so many events going on and a lot to be proud of here. And so uh with that I will move on to item 5B uh the superintendent report. >> Couple things that I wanted to highlight. Um had our second Java with JUIC. Uh had a different group this time and it was a great group representing a number of different folks. Uh some of the stuff that that I heard was uh very exciting. Um and I think there's a couple things we can definitely take away and learn from. I think some one of the things too is folks getting acclimated especially if they move to the community um and
004understanding how do they best connect with the school. I think for a number of folks they kind of said once they got started they were able to to find those things out but just how do we promote things? Youth athletics was one that came up. how do we look at some of our colar care and sharing that information ahead of time. And so we had a nice range from high school to not even joining us yet uh in attendance. And so it was a great conversation and enjoyable experience and some good laughs and had a great time with that too. Something that is coming up too that we're going to be looking at and this is on the in the infancy right now, but we're going to be hosting the Eastern Wisconsin Excellence and Education
005Awards uh in May. Um so that's something that Akquil has uh hosted in the past too. Uh, but that's something they were looking for a little bit of a change in the venue and and uh talked with Brad over there and we were able to to work on some of those details. So, we'll be organizing and setting that up um and working through that process with him and his team. Just some other things that we continue to work on. I think I've told you a few times about this of different grant opportunities we've had, whether it's with the Coler Foundation and their support. We're meeting with the KTE tomorrow to discuss um the trust and and how we can best partner together. Uh we we learned yesterday we weren't successful in a grant um that
006was intended to to help us uh from the state too in looking at a metal press in some of our tech areas, but I was wanting to give a better report on that, but that happened and that's okay. But I appreciate our staff for putting in the work to make that happen to even be able to apply for that. And there's some other grants we continue with the office of school safety and some other items that we continue to work on. And then one thing that I just wanted to highlight and this will come up a little bit later in the agenda too is uh on Friday I have a meeting a breakfast with legislators around CISA 7 and we're going to be talking about a couple different topics and those are things are things
007that are important that we should uh know a little bit about. So one of those is the assembly bill 528 and senate bill 516. Uh what that relates to is school district employees participation in a state group health insurance. Um, and so that's an interesting topic, something we'll have to to continue to to monitor. I know other states, Washington's an example that they have that and it's like a larger scale co-op. So that's something that we just need to keep an eye on uh because I don't know what that looks like. I'll get more information on Friday. And so then circle back with our um insurance group and insurance committee that we've been working with because that we'll see what information I have uh out of that too. Something that also is going to be
008discussed is just some items around the voucher programs and the expansion. Um, and then how does that align to things like open enrollment and some other protocols that are in place? Also going to discuss act 20 implementation from the literacy side, but how is that also going to connect to the new math legislation that's been put out there? And then finally, one topic is Assembly Bill 614, the classroom bill of rights. And that's just going through some of the logistics of that of what does that mean for our staff, what does that mean for students, and what are some probably unintended or intended consequences um of that bill. So talking through that, making sure we're learning more. Uh one of the things we've continued to challenge ourselves with and whether that's on our legislative roundt
009we have locally or at the the larger meetings is how do we make sure that our legislators are reaching out to us and asking for some of that information. Um there's been a number of bills that have come across that have been a little bit of a surprise to folks and how do we make sure that um school districts are represented in those conversations and we might not always agree on those things but at least um we're able to talk through and and share some of the the the realities on um when legislative items happen. So a long report questions for Mike. Mike, what was that first bill number uh relating to the 528? >> Okay, thank you. >> Assembly 528, Senate 516. >> Okay, we will now move on to our student reports. We
010have Zach and Melanie here. Oh, thanks for grabbing that, Zach. And who was going to go first? Melanie, you're go first. Excellent. You're gonna do great. There we go. >> Okay. The student council is currently working hard on planning a fun and memorable winter fest dance for the high school which is scheduled for January 31st. Our theme this year is snowball and we've already begun brainstorming decorations, music, lighting. Yeah, lighting and activities to create an exciting atmosphere. We want this dance to feel fresh and different from past events. So, we're adding some new ideas to help make the night stand out. Tickets will be sold and we'll share the selling dates soon once everything is finalized. Leading up to this dance, we will be holding our winter pep rally on January 30th. We're organizing a
011variety of games, competitions, and interactive activities that we hope will bring all grades together and get everyone energized for this dance. We are also planning several dressup days and themes throughout the week to boost involvement and school spirit. [clears throat] >> Uh we also want to highlight that this Friday, the 12th, we have a home basketball game against Shabboan Christian. The theme for the game is neon, and we're excited to see everyone show up in their in their brightest neon outfits to support the team. We hope to fill the stands with color and energy. And we want to wish our Bomber boys the best of luck. As we approach winter break, the student council hopes that all students, staff, and families have a fun, safe, and relaxing holiday season. We're excited to continue our work
012in the new year and bring more positive community building events to our to to our to our school. >> Awesome. Great job. Any questions for the students? >> All right. Good job, Zach and Melanie. Thank you for for being here tonight. We'll move on now to item 5D, open enrollment overview. I will hand this off to Mike. >> All right. So, we're going to talk about open enrollment. We're going to do this in a two-step process. Um, obviously, this is something you all know. In January, there's an approval that's required per state law of the number of open enrollment seats we have. I think when we have discussions and items like this, it's important to provide that context and really do this in in two steps to make sure we cover a number of those
013areas. Um it allows you all some time to reflect then when we get into uh discussion and action items in January. Um any questions that may come up with this. So wanting to highlight this and just go through a number of areas because I think it's important that we review these on an annual basis. I think it's also important too because I think there's some misconceptions or misinformation or just misunderstanding because for me in going through some of the the bullet points too. It's good to refresh and learn some of that as well. Uh so really looking at this open enrollment started in the late 90s. This is uh something that is a legal requirement. Um and so it's something that is out there and we need to follow really. It was aimed at parental
014choice and flexibility um and a little bit of competition as well. Um, so really looking at strong school programs, being able to to find what works best for your child or uh for a student that way. And then what are those best learning environments for students? So that was really kind of the intended purpose back when this first started. So how does the funding work on this? Uh, the funds are transferred from resident uh districts to non-resident districts, too. Uh, the state sets an annual amount and that's uh increased and increasing for next year, too. So, some pretty significant increases over uh the last two years. So, about $1,200 and I think it's about $900 uh per student for next year, too. Um and then that just makes sure that the districts are receiving the
015funding uh that they need for the students that they serve because obviously we have a greater number of students, we have other requirements and responsibilities and we need to make sure we can pay for those items. Um and then this is just looking at the specifics here too of what was approved at the state uh level and so you can see those increases um from fiscal year 25 then in 26 and 27. So um some pretty aggressive adjustments I think for a lot of places too. And this is where you kind of funding the different uh school systems that that kind of exist in Wisconsin right now is is how did the legislators want to approach that? How did they want to um look at those different areas and make sure that they were funding
016uh those programs that they've approved appropriately. All right. And what do school districts need to consider? available seats at each grade level, program capacity and staffing limits. And we'll talk a little bit about this because I think this is one of the areas too uh when folks look at this too is it's really about the available seats at at each grade level. So it needs to be looked at um in not in it in its entirety but specific to those different grade levels too. You can't just set a percentage of we're going to be 15% open enrolled student and then you figure that out. That's not something you can do. needs to look at each grade level and that needs to be outlined. So, you'll see some estimates on this too um in the ne
017in the upcoming slides uh and I know you all had a chance to to take a look at those too, but you'll see some of that and that's kind of getting into the where do we want those class sizes to be what's kind of that that ideal um number there that offers the programming but also um ensures that that we stay within our limits too. And so, what does this mean for uh the community? This is really again going back to this is uh around a choice for families um and then expanding educational offerings for smaller districts. Uh my understanding is there's a lot of context and history that took place in this village uh when the school district was discussed and and and consolidation was a term that was used and I know that's
018come up again on a uh state level. Uh, so that was something that I know there was there was folks and leaders in the community that had some insight to look at this of how do we make sure we protect um the the Coler school district and make sure that our kids have experiences that that uh we want them to have too. Uh it also looks at our enrollment shifts that impact funding. Um obviously I started off I was a bubble teacher. So I taught and I was the extra teacher and I moved from seventh grade to eighth grade and then hoped that I got a a job in my third year on that too. And I think that's something that um some folks will look at that too of how does that that have
019some of that steady impact and also from a funding perspective. And then really it's an opportunity to attract new students and families. So going through a lot of just the breakdown from the state and uh the items that they laid out wanting to capture just some of that context to provide for folks today. All right. And then what are the board's responsibilities to uh set and adopt the class limits. That's January. You all are familiar with that. to set and adopt the special education program limits also in January and then adopting and revising policies to meet the state requirements. Um so that's something that we need to lay out and we can't obviously not follow the state law on these items and so that's something that we'll continue um to make sure we're doing we're
020looking at and we're building on. So these are some items that I think folks always need to consider when discussing open enrollment too. It's required to we're required to set the open enrollment spaces each January. you don't have a choice in that. And then they must be set based on available space. So that's something that we have to look at. Um and that's something that always needs to be considered. Um that it is a state law and I mentioned that in the late 90s. Um and then there's been adjustments along the way. So it was I think 1998 it needed to be fully mapped out on a funding uh standpoint and then continued to expand a little bit beyond that. So and then it's the numbers are set based on space. As I mentioned before,
021we can't set like here's a percentage and work with that. So, that's something that I think is a little bit confusing for folks of just making sure we're understanding those items. So, wanted to give that as a little historical context and a little trip down um open enrollment uh lane here. So, looking at estimates um and this is one of the trickiest parts and met with the JK teachers and and Mr. Hinds the other day um and we were going through what what does that look like at the at the JK level because that's honestly the hardest one to um do and I know they sent out a census before to try to get a number of where folks were. Um that's kind of where we're at as far as our 27 is what we
022were looking at. We'll continue to refine that and what that really equates to is where those open enrollment spaces are um right around that that 45 mark. We with JK we have to find kind of a cushion of being ready for if somebody didn't fill out the census, if somebody moves, like it's just different. We're always going to have folks moving in, but that's one of the trickier ones between that and kindergarten. Um, that's kind of the the spot we need to look at. And this is the hard part in the task of giving you all a recommendation and your approval in January for something that we're six, seven months out on. Um, and so that's a little bit of the challenge there. So really looking at that and then building in these spaces here
023uh where we start to follow our administrative guideline well we follow our administrative guidelines but making sure that kind of those tiers that happen throughout uh we're reflecting that in our open enrollment spaces because if you look at that it's broken down by different grade levels with the different recommendations. Um, and then it's also talking with our staff of making sure that we can accommodate this and especially too in those young youngest grades. Um, making sure that we have those spaces and we do have um some transition from JK to folks joining us for 5K and that's that's why that number would be um a little bit lower there. First grade, that's the uh group that we've talked about before that that's that smaller group too. So those spaces um need to need to be
024there. uh looking at kind of our trending here is we start working to getting about 60 a class. That's kind of where we start uh going and in talking with Miss Raul too about what opportunities and offerings are built there. That's a number that that our discussions we uh continued to feel comfortable with. And so you'll notice that starts to become the theme in the upper grade levels following those guidelines, but it's kind of building to that. Um, so that's that's where we get to some of these estimates, why they are what they are, what they total up to, and what makes sense that way. So then looking at this too, um, and this is where probably a little bit of a change to is we could look at what are some of our options
025here and and this is kind of getting into that that 60 students per class. You can see the measurement or the numbers there um, adding up and where those things start to fall. So pretty significant uh difference too from the first slide to the second slide just with us kind of stabilizing at those grade levels in maintaining around that 60 students uh per per class. Then we jump into and we're talking special education and this is a little bit different too because this is really around the program capacity too um and what our case load is for our educators. And so we look at this um and Andrea does a nice job of running uh the the reports looking at the recommendations for case load and and where are some of those adjustments that we
026need to um we we are full in those areas and so um we have to to look at our crosscategorical too. We would not have spaces there. Um speech we are over our case load right now and she's uh working with our our speech language folks to to see how can we best accommodate um the needs of our students. But that would be another area we're capped. And then OT, we have um some space to to uh build in there. So that's where you would see those two folks reflected. So this is really meant to give you um an overview, an estimate of where we're at, why those estimates are there, um what that would look like. We'll continue to track the data to see if we can get even more um detailed items. And
027that gives us a little bit of uh wiggle room, too, where kind of that 60 to 65. we like to be right around 60, but it gives us a little bit of wiggle room to um where we could potentially see some folks uh moving in and we're ready to adjust to that, too. So, that's that's really this is aimed at anformational update, but I'll also just uh provide a slide here for a thank you and questions. >> Mike, I'd just like to say thank you for taking the time to talk to some teachers, talk to Miss Row, and taking their opinions into consideration with your and making the adjustments to open enrollment. This is not how open enrollment has looked over the past few years for those of you who are keeping track. So, um
028I really appreciate this. I think it'll help a lot. >> It was good and I think there's some stuff even within the AGS especially looking like JK uh that we need to take a look at for best practices for what needs to happen in the classroom for the support in the classroom. Um, and so it was nice. That's that's one area that's tough and that conversation was outstanding to be able to kind of go through that and put everybody's heads together and just talk through some of that. So, it was helpful. >> Thank you. >> Okay. Thank you, Mike. We'll go on to item six, review of district finances. Isaac, are you going to take this? >> Floor is yours. >> All right. Well, uh, district finances are staying right on track according to budget
029and according to last year. Um, I have a report reflecting our revenues for for you all to see. And our revenues are right on track with where we've been in the past, a little bit higher percentage. Um, biggest thing again is we don't get a ton of money as a school district until tax dollars start rolling in in January. So, we'll probably have one more report next month, not showing a lot. And then come January, you'll start to see a lot more revenues rolling in. Expenses, uh, that's the biggest one that we're obviously needing to track and monitor because that's controlled month-to-month. Uh, we're actually, uh, less as a percentage of usage right now than we have been last year. So, we're doing really good there according to budget and we're on track with what
030we're what we're planning right now. Um, nothing really new for the district. as far as revenue and expenditures yet. Uh we'll continue to monitor as the year goes on, but right now everything looks pretty solid and pretty stable. Um one of the things that Mike was looking at there with the uh uh one of the things we are keeping an eye on right now is some state budget decisions that are looking right now to try and see what's happening. Um, as of right now, the reimbursement rate for state uh for special education is less than what they projected by quite a bit. Um, it's about 7% down what they told us it would be. And, you know, we projected a buffer, but 7%'s a lot. It's more than anyone projected. So, uh, state's looking into
031that right now to see if, you know, maybe there's a bill that they can try and float to get that percentage to what they said. So, that's a potential negative impact to our revenues, but we'll see. It's still a moving target right now, but uh that bill did just get pitched, so we'll see how that goes. >> Can you remind us what the reimbursement was? >> Uh it was supposed to be about 33%, we got more like 29%. So, based on that, uh with a 42% estimate, we projected 38%. You know, same less than what they said. Right now, I think they're at 35%. So, >> do you know off the top of your head what the the value of that delta would be? Just to help put that into context. >> It's okay if
032you don't. Maybe you can just email it to the group. >> I can do that. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Not off the top of my head, but I can >> ask >> if it's 7% down like Yeah. What would be the lost revenue there? >> Yeah, I can provide that. >> Gotcha. This is >> this is where part of this too, sorry Isaac, I'm ripping this again. Um, this is where the other part of this comes where that proposal reason that was a little bit contested in the legisle was because of exactly how Isaac explained this of that going down where if we if we said here's a true x% and then we would be able to >> rely on that cost. And so I I think to to Isaac's point there, that's something that's
033going to be continued to uh be a discussion point. I know uh both of our professional organizations sent something out about uh connecting about this and so I'm anticipating this will also be a discussion either with legislators on Friday or Monday when I see some other folks that way. >> Okay. Any other questions, comments? >> Um looking ahead to January, I know we're going to have the audit report then. Do you have any updates regarding the audit now? >> Uh they're getting close to finishing it up. Um, it will be due on Monday. So, that's when it will get turned into the state and that's when it gets turned in probably Friday to us. So, we should have that pretty soon. But, uh, as of right now, they're tying everything up and just helping to
034implement the new Gazsbies that come around. So, it's pretty much done just tying up some loose ends right now with them. I do know we're going to have clean opinion. So, >> we'll have what? >> Clean audit opinion. So, >> that's great. Okay, we'll now move on to item seven, the consent agenda, which includes approval of November 12, 2025 board me minutes, approval of invoices, and the act 143 report. Do we have a motion for the consent? >> So moved. >> Have a second. Thank you. Uh before I ask if there's any discussion, Mike, can you just give a brief overview of what the uh act 143 report is? connect. >> It's connected to uh school safety and you all saw the report. So, it connects to our drills. Um it's an annual completion, too.
035And so, we sign off with our drills. What can we learn from those drills? And so, we've been able to make sure we're doing that, make sure we're meeting those requirements, and share that information. Okay. Any uh comments on the consent agenda? >> Right. Hearing none. All those in favor say I. >> I. I. Motion carries. We're now move on to item 8A. The first item is the WASBY board development tool. This was brought up at the uh last meeting uh we had uh we all completed that development tool and Mike I will hand it off to you to to share what are the next steps of all that data that was collected uh through those board surveys. >> Definitely. Yes, there's a lot of data. I I think I attached like 12 different documents
036because it didn't print very cleanly. So you get a breakdown of each of those areas. Um so what I really looked at were some of the areas that I think we can bring uh forward and have as discussion and learning opportunities. I think for some of these um it was interesting. I got a couple areas where standard deviation was a little um little different. Uh and so I think there's some stuff that we can look at. Um how do we make sure that we're having those conversations? How do we make sure that we're bringing that information forward? How are we having an education session? Just kind of like open enrollment. There's some areas that we can uh take a look at this too. Um and there's some things that kind of kind of jumped out
037to me. I think the the areas and this is really focused on the board's work. And so I think that's important context too. Um the the areas kind of that I called out uh were datadriven decision making and I think there's some items in there uh planning and vision. And so I think there's some things I wanted to call out specifically in those areas too. Uh because there was pretty significant difference in in a couple of those too with benchmarking test results. How do we compare that? I know that's that performance data. And then there was a couple things too about curriculum development being culturally relevant. Um and so there's some areas that I think we can touch on or just have as a discussion point. I don't think they require a ton of action.
038I think it's more just hey let's make sure we're considering some of these as well. Um, an area too that I also wanted to highlight was uh culture, the board's culture. You all had that as your your high highly rated area too. There were some things that were uh in there that uh were good. Um, you also said you all prepare for board meetings by reading. That was unanimous. So, thank you for uh preparing for that too. Um, and then I think the other topics to to look at too was kind of planning. We've talked about this. The planning was really centered around kind of the operational side of things. that entire set of questions was around kind of facilities maintenance, operational, non-instructional areas, too. So, I think there's a learning opportunity in there uh
039just to be able to to showcase that based on some of those um results. Budgeting, I think that's something always we can continue to to work on. Um not something that uh came out that way too. Um and then something where uh vision that's really talking about looking at setting that out and up. What are those strategic priorities? And I know that's outlined on our nine-month uh goals. Um and so that's something I I think it's important that we um take a look at. So was able just to pull a couple of those areas. What I would say for next steps is at our next agend agenda planning meeting dive into this a little bit more and what are these areas. So when we have anformational update, maybe that's around budgeting and we infuse some
040of those where there there may be another question um in there or uh community engagement, making sure that we're outlining what does that look like with our linkage meetings um and outlining that. So I would say next steps for this is really bringing to the agenda planning meeting how can we target some of these areas to share this information um and make sure we're providing those updates such as what I told you about legislation because that was another area too to look at. So, I gave you a ton. I think we start scaling away. What can we chip away at that's helpful for you all to know? And where are some of those areas that I would say they're deficiencies, but there's a little bit of a gap if people aren't sure. Let's address those
041and let's help everybody learn. >> Great. Any questions or comments? I just really appreciated this processed ourselves and we want to identify areas that we can grow in ourselves. >> Well said. Okay, we'll go on to item 8B, the broadcast communication. This is uh the article written by Emily on open enrollment. Emily, I thought you did a fantastic job here representing this board very well. Um does anybody have any questions or or comments for >> Thanks. Um Emily and I made a little adjustment there. So we uploaded a revised draft. There's not a So just if you want to take a look at that and if there's any feedback and it either one of us and we'll make sure that that goes out. The deadline is next next Friday I think. So we got time
042on that. But I'll assume if we don't hear anything that we're good to go. Why don't just for some finality there, why don't we just say if you have feedback, get it uh by 5:00 pm Friday and then that way you'll just can can act on that. Excellent. Again, great job. Moving on to item 8 C, upcoming community conversation, faculty and staff. This will be our third, I believe, community conversation. We started with uh K55. Um I I was unable to make it but we had uh uh community conversation with our village officials. I heard uh that went very well. Heard very positive things from folks and now we have faculty and staff. This is coming up for next January. Mike, I want to kick this to you for the logistics of this one. >>
043Yeah. So this will be something we look at and uh we're going to reach out to folks and see what that looks like from a participation standpoint. um you know my previous uh journey we we were able to split this up into different groups um and I think that was helpful uh so we'll we'll look at sending out an invitation see if folks are interested I think the the the goal this way too just like we've had is we have a structure around our question looking at the board's direction of the vision and out and up and I think that came through loud and clear from the results I was looking at too is how do we set that vision um and so wanting to make sure that we're incorporating those questions that help to
044support and so um that's that we would send out the invitations and then seeing based on our response uh if we do this in small groups what that looks like too. So >> are we thinking the standard time of 4:30? >> I'm always happy to adjust but uh I mean that's that's also I know that's a challenge for a number of different folks that way. So >> I was actually thinking given their school day did we want to move it up for them or do we want to leave it I can I like it it does not matter to me because either time works with my schedule. So >> I guess yes some people who work that might be >> okay we'll plan on 4:30 because I think it's important that um uh uh we
045maximize board attendance for that and we'll all >> have it pencile in already. Um yeah it's perfect. And then we'll have uh students in February. We'll work on some other stuff. That's always a fun one, too. And then we have civic and clergy coming up, potentially legislators and business officials. So, the spring is going to be uh pretty now that you all got your feet wet on the linkages. Here we go. >> There we go. Okay. We will move on to item 8, state education convention. I'm going to again hand this off to you, Mike. >> All right. So, a couple things that are in here is uh you all have the agenda uh for the folks that are going and and if there's areas of interest and you're unable to attend, please make sure
046you share that. The other thing that's linked in here um and this is I I need your guidance on how you would like to handle this. I can give you how I've handled this before, uh but I can also see what works. So, the delegate assembly packet that's in there is we have a delegate that represents well the school board and then the district. Um and they ultimately have to vote on this and I believe you're the delegate in this. Um, and so different ways that that I've seen this done is we can collaborate on uh what these different resolutions are and kind of make our recommendations on that. Done that before with a spreadsheet where if the board has an opinion, they just put their initials on the support or oppose um area and
047then it gives Kelly some guidance. Uh we've also had it where um the the delegate had basically full autonomy to vote as representative of the board and then just make sure that they could explain their um their their votes and if there were specific questions, they worked through it that way. I I'm open to either uh way of exploring that. Just I need to know because if we're going to do something where we share kind of on that spreadsheet, I'm going to make sure that I get that prepared um for you all so you're able to weigh in on that and then we could review that at the January meeting. Um or if it's something that let's keep it on the agenda, you just want to take a chance to review this. has strong feelings,
048we can share that at the January uh meeting. I think for a lot of these are pretty straightforward um as far as which ones have gone to the policy and resolutions committee. And this is really again going to what your professional organization, what are they going to advocate for? What are they um representing? And and how does that how does that look from their efforts? Because um certain things from a schoolboard perspective is going to look different than it does from a superintendent perspective. and there's uh representation for a lot of different opinions from districts that way. And so I think that's why it's important to take a look at this, have your your voice heard on that. And uh I'm looking for some direction as to how you would like to gain gain that
049feedback. Um and then we can kind of go from there. >> Thanks, Mike. I would propose uh a shared Excel sheet like you talked about. I think what would be helpful is that even though these are um board resolutions from our state board association, I think it would be helpful for you to take that first pass who lives and breathes this uh of of of what your recommendation is just because some of these things that are so intricately related to funding. Um I just I'm not going to have that knowledge level. That'd be helpful to start it out. It'd also be be helpful to maybe add something, you know, like what your red, white light, green, whatever. >> And then um probability of anything ever actually coming of it because some possible, some not possible.
050And that would just be helpful for our thinking. And then those of us who feel strongly can uh add our feelings in terms of just support opposed or neutral, and then we can discuss that in January. Does that work for you, Kelly, as the delegate? >> It does. My only question is why the probability? >> Uh, just curious for me. Um, because I won't know all of the context of all of these. That would help my thinking if I'm on the bubble on something. >> Okay. So, you will send that out to the group. >> I will send Yep. I'll send that out to the group. We'll get some stuff linked in there. get it together. And we've got uh Kelly going. Who else is going to the commission? >> Oh, excellent. Good. >> Is
051it just the two of us? >> Okay, >> good. Thank you for going. >> Want to attend anything together? If there's anything that we can discuss. >> Okay, we will go to our board calendar item 8E. Coming up here at the uh January meeting, we're going to approve our uh open enrollment. We'll have our faculty and staff linkage. I will work with um Mike on our broadcast communication. So essentially a a year in review and then uh do you want to talk through some of the other uh stuff we'll be doing at this meeting, Mike? So, we're going to look at the resolutions that we just talked about, the auditor report. Um, we'll start looking at the 2627 um expenditures and budget before we've collected money for 2526. Um, and then uh looking at that
052open enrollment. Um, that way too, we'll check in a little bit more on some of those topics that we wanted to cover based on your evaluation uh or your evaluation, your survey that you all completed. Um, and we'll start to put those items uh together. I will also remind the group uh to complete the uh midyear evaluation for Dr. Chuick and send that to me. Hopefully, please do by the end of December. Earlier would be be good to solve some free time at the end of the month and then we will convene in close session uh not uh at the January meeting not to uh evaluate Mike just to do a mid-year touch point using the evaluation framework. The formal evaluation takes place in June. So, thank you for doing that. [snorts] No, this is
053so >> I know that's the big update. >> That's that's we just got the big update released. Um there was still an update that needed some refinement. So, we have some of those items. There's some technical changes that I know uh you all kind of had delegated that to me. I still need to make sure I report those to you and acknowledge the date that those were reported. So, we're going to have to go through those. Um, and then, uh, we'll have that next wave of updates. Um, and so I think things like we're on the lookout, too, for like the state cell phone policy, some of those things. So, >> yes. Yeah. Should be the the usual Neola drop. >> Okay. We will now move uh I'll entertain a motion to adjurnn. >> So,
054second. Okay. Excellent. All right. All those in favor say I. >> I.
