001Oh, it appears to be working. It's red. So, mean it should be happening. >> Says, "Waiting for St. Curry Falls School District." >> Kirk says we're good. You might be a little behind. >> No, we got her. >> I see it. >> Apologies for the technical difficulties. Apologies for that. We have not missed anything. We have not started the meeting. Um, so I'll get started. I'll call the the committee portion of the meeting together. It's 5:22. Uh, we'll start with the discussion of the recommended updates to the staff handbook. >> Okay. So, I'll walk you through those fairly quick. Most of the changes that are being tossed around are fairly minor. Um, I did provide you a handy page reference in your board update which aligns to the the PDF or the document they had

002attached to the board book. So, first off, on page three, simply strike the name of the superintendent. Um, it is the board's handbook technically that administration is supposed to enact. Uh, and then whenever you do end up with a new superintendent, whether that be in the relatively near future or the very long future, you don't ever have to go back and change that on the uh on the handbook. So, a fairly minor recommendation there. I'm going to speed you ahead then to page 15. on page 15. Uh the recommendation there is to strike the board offices. Um strike Doc Bont who is no longer a a board member and add Dawn and then alphabetize the listing such that you don't have to continually update the handbook when uh new board uh offices are elected. When

003we have a new board member, we would have to update that information. Uh but we don't have to keep changing around the offices. Your contact information is there and it would remain current on the district website. So, it's really just to not, you know, have to update that every time there's a a change in um the board. And then we'll go all the way to page 63. >> Can I stop you real quick? My just since we're on it, my phone number is incorrect. >> Okay. >> It's no later. >> We'll get it squared away. Yep. >> Sounds good. >> I know I have your correct number, so I'll just verify it. Okay, now we'll jump you to 63. The admin team really liked it when I just took my time scrolling through these pages.

004It was riveting. >> And so, um, on 63, it's, uh, se subsection 9.03 sick leave accumulation. That sick leave earned is cumulative to 105 days. Now, keep in mind the only thing that we're recommending a change in is highlighted there in red. And then I took the liberty of highlighting in yellow. Red writing highlighted in yellow just so it's easier to see. And we're modifying that to read that it should be the employee um be notified by the employee of this in writing no later than the last day of school for the regular school year and that it will not count towards the six accumulated days. In speaking with LA, that's been the practice. So, it's really not a change. It's a change reflecting better reflecting reaction. Questions on that? And then I'm going to

005bring you to 66. On 66, if you recall, uh through the duration of last year, we made a modification to a couple of different things. Those changes are reflected here in the handbook. One of them had to do with um personal business leave and and whether or not what amount staff members, professional staff members are charged to use that personal business leave. And we had reduced that instead of the cost of a sub to one half the cost of a sub. So we simply are inserting the words one half of the to update that language. And I'll just keep moving along unless you have a question. So jump in anytime. Now we're going to fly all the way down to page 90 of said handbook. And on page 90, um that's where there's recommended changes

006to compensation for schedule overload. The original language is there, um and stricken, so you can see how it originally read. And then the new language is of course highlighted in yellow and in red font. So I'll walk you through what the scenario was. There was a delineation between um the block schedule which is four periods per day and then a seven or eight period schedule which throughout the history of the organization there's been multiple permutations of schedules and what ended up transpiring is at some point I think an argument was made that having a overload on a block is way harder than having an overload on a eight period day or a seven period day And it used to be the the old language indicated that if you had an overload on a uh 7

007period day, you'd get $1,000. And if you had an overload on an 8 period day, you'd get $1,500. Uh but if you had an overload on a block, you'd get $2,250. So that was carved out on that sentence that's stricken um under the paragraph. The thought process for me and as well as talking with the administrative team is that if you're on an overload, that basically means you do not get a prep. So think about it in terms of I have a schedule where I start at this time, I end at this time. Typically built into there is some amount of time for prep period, meaning getting ready for your courses. And that can range anywhere from as little as 30 minutes to as much as 90 minutes. All depending upon the schedule. I would

008say 90 minutes is rare. Usually it's 45 or 60 because there's a on the block there's a duty assigned or something like that. But we carve out time and this is uh from time in memorial that I'm aware of where teachers were uh provided prep and in the old days that would have been reflected in the collective bargaining bring it back in the uni days. And then if you have a staff member excuse me a teacher that was teaching in overload meaning they lose their prep. So they're teaching eight out of eight, seven out of seven, six out of six, five out of five, four out of four, it doesn't matter. They would get some additional compensation for that because the school of thought would be that they're going to do the work that they're

009supposed to be doing on their that they would have been doing on their prep period, preparing for classes and so forth. They'd be technically doing that on their own time, right, outside of the school day. Um, and the language was a little bit confusing because it said um classes beyond six for an eight period day. Uh, and that doesn't really make sense because classes beyond seven in an 8 period day would be considered an overload because again, if you teach seven out of eight periods and one block is open, you just wouldn't get assigned a duty. So that would be your prep. If you teach six out of seven, the seventh period that you didn't teach would be not a duty assigned. It would be a prep. So any combination of either directed by an

010administrator, you're doing this during this period of time, which happens to supervising a win, um lunch duty, um study halls, that kind of thing. Um are sometimes considered duties. But we look at their schedule and generally what this wording change would be um changing it to is instead of this confusing if it's this kind of period day or this kind of period day, it's generally if you teach or have duties for an entire day from start to finish and you knew you have no prep, you're eligible for an overload and the recommendations are just to allow that to be 2250 across the board. The school of thought being is an overload's an overload. And frankly, I think I could make a solid argument having taught on an eighth period day, seven preps in an eight

011period day, and then I'd go sub that other that was by choice, that other period when I was first starting out in teaching. And I would much rather prep and do four classes than prep and do eight classes. See what I'm saying? So, I I don't see the correlary that doing an overload on a block is so much more difficult to warrant a delineation in compensation versus an overload on a 6, seven or eight per day. So generally, and I'll reiterate, we would handle everybody the same. And this is of course applicable to middle and high school. Elementary, it's self-contained, so you have your own classroom. It's a little different ball of wax. Um, if you're teaching the full day or you have a duty, you're eligible for an overload. That language or that element

012of it isn't really changing anything. That's basically been the interpretation. Although the seven six out of um or teaching beyond six periods on an eight period day, that doesn't make sense because you would technically have two additional periods in there and that's technically not an overlook. So that's a cleanup. I'm hoping that wasn't super confusing, but any questions? You >> good? All right, moving on. >> Okay, now we'll jump you to page 95. And this is the portion where some significant substantive changes are being proposed. Rather than strike and replace to avoid confusion, I took all of the old retirement language that you can see there under section 9.01 retirement benefit and 9.02 2 alternate H retirement uh um health reimbursement arrangement benefit and struck those packed them all together in what I'm recommending that

013you appear that appears now on page 96 which is a conglomeration of technically the two or three things we were engaged in prior and to avoid confusion what I'll do is just draw your attention to the first stricken portion which had applied in the old days Uh, so I'm back up to 9.01 in the retirement benefit. And that was the circumstance in which you had 15 years of service to the district. You're 55 years of age. And again, you'll see some of these reflected in the in the recommended new language. Um, and then you would get payments into a an HR on your behalf based on credits that you've attained in 10-year increments. And then what ended up happening over time and oh and this is super important. The max benefit that any staff member

014ever had access to at least in relative recent history the last 10 15 20 years was $45,000. Okay, that number is important because you'll see that ultimately that's not going to change. So this is not an enrichment of the benefit. It's simply cleaning up the language or even a decrease in the benefit. So the max that somebody could get was $45,000 and typically that would have been a human being that's at least 55 and probably has 30 plus years of experience in the district. What ended up happening is that I think there was some key retirements over a period of time where there was some increment very close to 30 years, 26, 27, 28 years and there it wasn't accounted for or or um a fraction of a 10-year increment or a fraction of a

015credit wasn't accounted. And so that at some point language was added to give a portion of credit for uh less than 10-year increments. And that's where some of this new language had um been inserted where it's simply it indicated for teachers whose retirement is effective July 1st 2021 and prior to July 1st 2024. So that's where some of the carveouts uh in this were incorporated or pardon me that was the July 1st 2024 and later. No it wasn't. It was the July 1st 2021 to July 1st 2021. And then it was opposite. >> Okay, my apologies the handbook can be like okay I can understand calculate my own time. So I guess more uh fuel to the fire of why the recommendation is valid. Uh so then anyway, there was also another circumstance that was

016incorporated which was uh what the district had shifted to with respect to a $1,500 payment per year for your time here which technically starts immediately. So if under the newest iteration you were 55 years of age and you retired after working here for 3 years you'd get 4500 bucks in an HR see what I'm saying 3 * 1 1500 5 years 5 time 1500 10 years 1010 so that was the calculation which generally was the approach for the majority of staff members that had and you know recently hired in the organization or would be applicable to those folks that are currently employed and or recently hired. What the district then would do is they would identify an individual that was retiring. They would work it through scenario A and this is LAR in most cases

017work the retirement calculation through scenario A then work it through scenario B and would apply the retirement calculation where the individual benefited most from said calculation. What you saw in most calculations was that it was, you know, you're not talking, well, in your calculation A, you get $2,000 and in the calculation B, you get 40,000. Not like that. It was basically 40,000 or 3788 or 35,000 or 3322. And I'm just pulling numbers up, but Lorray looked at it with me and I didn't document specific scenarios, but you're talking a few thousand bucks. So we aired on the side of whichever of the approaches benefited the staff member the most and that encumbered a handful of staff members because there were staff members that retired the last couple of years. Um, so what I ended up

018doing in order to create the the new language and the recommendation again is to strike everything above what now you're going to find on the middle of page n uh and insert the language that's recommended here which incorporates a bit of option A and a bit of option B plus some clearer planer language that result in the same net benefit. and should handle every staff member in in a a very very similar or identical fashion. No calculations around percentages. It's all strict 1,500 bucks for one year of service and your eligibility is age 55. Uh and to get the well, we'll we'll go through it. So striking all the language, the the handbook would simply say that a teacher can retire at the end of any semester with written notice no later than October 1st

019for the end of the first semester and March 1st for retirements at the end of the fiscal year. And new language supervisor may retire any time by providing 30 days notice or as outlined in their individual contract that this portion of the handbook covers professional staff or licensed staff. So that incorporates supervisors as well. And so that's just making that clear that their individual contract may uh circumvent or overrule what's listed here and that the uh supervisors are required to provide 30 days notice which is different. That's what the district had been doing. Okay. So then we take and borrow the language that was from above. The board will provide an early retirement benefit as follows. For every school year a teacher supervisor satisfactory totally completes in St. Croy fall scholarship, there shall earn a

020credit toward a retirement H contribution of 1,500 bucks. So that's the $1,500 thing that I'm talking about. They're eligible for a maximum of up to 30 credits. 30 times 1,500 is 45,000 for no more than $45,000. If a teacher supervisor works beyond his or her 30th year in the district, the teacher supervisor shall earn no more credits, which means the max benefit in the old time and in the recommendation is 45,000. But there's a little bit of a caveat. We'll get to that in a second. Then we incorporate language teachers and supervisors with at least 15 years of service to the district will receive 7500 for every 30 days of unused accumulated sick leave up to a maximum of 22,500 upon retirement. The reason that information is in there is if you go back up

021to the top, 15 years of service was what the prior requirement of the district was to be fully vested arguably for what the the district's benefit would be. Um that is unilaterally decidable by the board. What I did was float potentially 20 years of service in that regard. The idea being, well, let me finish the rest of the story. If I've worked here 15 years and I get $1,500 times 15 years, that amounts to 225. If I've kept the majority of my sick days, 90 plus, I'm also going to and get $7,500 for every 30 days of un uh unused accumulated sick leave. I'm also going to get 225 for a max total of 45. See what I'm saying? >> Yeah. So when I talked about this with staff for feedback, I had put 20

022years in there as just as a question to get some feedback. And after getting that feedback, the response from the staff was I wouldn't say it was complete dissatisfaction with the 20 years, but there was commentary around, well, I I do think there's people that have done an excellent job for 18 years or 19 years, and we're super happy that they're here, and we're happy that they would get a decent benefit in that regard, have to stay another year. And and then the comment was well is there a way to prorate that so that if you have 16 years it's this instead you know all the way to 20 and I said frankly I would want to trying to because there's a lot of these calculations were unnecessary and potentially confusing so that we tried

023to capture these special circumstances. So after going through that and providing some scenarios which frankly if we bumped it to 20 what my rationale was it would simply hopefully encourage people to stay a bit longer but also recognize years of service in a reasonable time frame 20 versus you know 30 for example. um and provide a little bit of a backdrop for 20 plus year employees to say, well, because technically you can get the full benefit after 15 years of 45,000 if you have received. See what I'm saying? So, I was just trying to meld that together a little bit. After the conversation, I'm like, you know what? Forget it. Let's leave it at 15. I don't want to do complicated calculations. And 15 is what it was. So if you look above 15 years

024is how what you waited for to be fully vested prior. So that's not new. Um but now that that language would stay. So if you are 55, you have at least 15 years of service and you have sick days, a number of sick days with a credit of 7,500 for every 30, you could get the full benefit of the 45,000. You work for 30 years and you have 105 sick days in your bank, you get 45,000. you work 15 years and you have 105 sick days in your bank, you get 45,000. See what I'm saying? So, that's part of what I was attempting to rectify with the the 20-year recommendation, but I'm scrapping that just because 15 is back to what we had been doing. Uh then C, the total benefit, time of service, and

025sick leave shall not exceed 45,000. That was true before. It wasn't explicitly stated as explicit as this. D. Teachers or supervisors with at least 30 years of service to the district will receive an additional, this is what a recommendation is for the modification I referenced earlier, payout of accumulated sick leave up to 105 days of $25 per day. The district buys down accumulated sick leave on an annual basis. Um, is it over 90, LA? >> Mhm. >> Yeah. Any sick days over 90 a staff get paid out $25 per day and then they get their aotment again which bumps them back to the 105 on the next year because we frontload those sick days. >> Teaching staff. >> Yep. Teaching staff. So that's why the 105 is there. Um now do most people have 105?

026The answer that's probably not, you know, because 105 is the max you could possibly get and then you get bumped down. You get a new allotment and you might take a date or two. um that carve out I'm going to give credit to Rob Zap because I have to he had the conversation with me. Um and I do think it's a little bit of a delineator for staff members that have basically s served their whole career here. You're not going to spend 30 years here and have many years anywhere else to be completely honest with you. Uh people do, but um and then a little bit extra incentive to not uh potentially burn up your sick days when you know you're going to retire at the at you know the end of say this year.

027Well gosh, I have 105 sick days and they're just going to kind of go to waste. I might as well burn them up. Based on our circumstance, I wouldn't say that that's a standard approach, but I mean, staff aren't doing that uh big time, but they could. And this is a bit of an incentive. At 25 bucks a day, you're talking about 2600 bucks. 2650 I think is what the number comes out to be. A little bit of incentive to say, "Hey, hang on to those cuz we'll give you a little something for them." And then E um already existed before. Um to be eligible, they have to be 55. They have to be um they earn the credits as outlined above. Full-time teacher who and that's an example. A full-time teacher who retires from

028the district at age 55, but has only worked in the district for three years would receive 4,500. Three credits of 1500. Um that's pretty much it. G a minor modification. A full-time teacher supervisor will earn prorated credits/sick leave in accordance with their percentage FTE. So we're just incorporating to ensure that they recognize that sick leave is also acred on a percentage basis. If you're halftime, you get half as much. Basically, that's what that what that is. And then G is stricken because um there's no delineation in retirement benefit. This would apply to everybody across the board. effective when you make your action to approve the changes here. Again, I hope it wasn't terribly confusing, but I'm happy to entertain any questions on that part. And Larry, who of course has done this for many more

029years than I have with in terms of retirement, can probably explain some of these things better if you have questions. >> Hey, you guys, I'm going to go home. I'm embarrassed with all this coffee. I'm so sorry. >> Thanks. It's disrupting the whole meeting. Thanks. >> Sorry. >> Is there any questions regarding the retirement? >> All right. >> Great. No, there's three more. So, now we're going to go to page 107, but I they're not anywhere nearly as longwinded as that one. Oops. Okay. 107 is a deletion of 5.07 107 unpaid time off for support staff that are not considered full-time. We don't basically do that anymore. Haven't done that in a long time. So that's getting rid of it. Language that doesn't apply. Then we're going to jump to 109. On 109, you remember

030we made a modification to the calculation of the long-term substitute rate. So that language is reflected there uh with striking some of the old language and adding in which is the daily rate of BA step one. The current rate for substitute less than 20 consecutive days is calculated as 70% of EA step one per day and the half day rate is one half of the full day rate. So pretty minor modification but it reflects what we're doing in reality. Um and you remember likely making that change. And then lastly I'm going to point you to page 111. Um and that is a minor modification to sick leave payout at retirement for support staff. You can see the old language there was at 95 days. We do allow teaching staff uh and supervisors to accumulate up

031to 105 sick leave days. So my recommendation would be just to bump that 105. They get $50 per day. Um and simply that's incentive for them to more incentive to hang on hang on sick leave is to any questions on that. The rest remains largely unchanged. I will be honest with you. There were areas where I made not um substantive changes, apostrophes, minor editing that don't change um the overall uh tone or intonation or meaning of the handbook whatsoever. I did not highlight those for obvious reasons. >> Any questions regarding the handbook? >> Have the changes presented? We'll just have the one change for the phone number >> and you would be asked them to update to make that official uh at our next meeting. >> Okay. So, we have time. >> Oh, yeah. >>

032Okay. Um back hearing no questions. We'll move on to the discuss the early graduation request. There was three of them. >> Oops. Did I skip ahead? Yeah, that's right. >> That's it. Fairly great request. >> Any questions on those hearing? Now, we'll move we'll discuss our student representative to the board. So, we just wanted to take an opportunity to welcome Anne. Ann's a senior this year. Mr. Wilson and I met with her in the alternate as well, Jacob. And um the census is new. The scenario is such that Ann's here to provide a student viewpoint on topics that are apppropo or frankly any topic that she feels feels it necessary to pipe up on. She's welcome to speak at any time. Um she recognizes that she doesn't vote. She also recognizes that there may be

033times where we say, "Hey, is that something you want would mind surveying the student body about in some capacity?" And uh she's happy to do that. At least that's what she told us unless she was lying at the time she met with Mr. Wilson. Um I'm totally kidding. She's awesome. And um we have a student rep uh name tag for her there uh so that she can participate. And I did also indicate so for example like updating of staff handbook. There's times when there's probably not a ton for for student feedback. Although if she has something to say, game on. You can totally go for it. Um we are also tossing around and we'll likely add I was thinking to November or December a student board member update. So that would be a time for

034in this case Ann to share some of the happenings what's going on in St. C Falls High School or perhaps the district um anything student related that she wants to share cool things about homecoming for example or you know an upcoming student council activity or whatever and so uh we will amend the agenda at some point. And I thought December would be a reasonable time frame, but if Anna wants to do it sooner, we can do it sooner. And it'll just be a carve out student board um report, student board update. And um Jacob as the alternate will attend as he sees fit. Ann and he will communicate. If Anne can't be here, she'll let Jacob know and Jacob will attend. And then Jacob will assume the rep position next year and we'll find a

035new alternate who will likely be a junior as well. And then we'll kind of do the same thing. So you have a bit of continuity and a backup in the event that whoever the primary is can't attend. And welcome to your first meeting. Super fun, right? >> I do welcome you and I appreciate it. We It's been I think before co when we had a student representative and it was always nice to get some feedback from the students too. So I appreciate you doing this. Look forward to hearing from you. Then as far as adding stuff, I don't think anybody has any concerns about adding that to the agenda at the future in the future. No. >> Perfect. That is it then. >> All right. The discussion of the claim by Deb Kohler. >> Yes.

036So Deb Kohler, former employee of ours, uh sued us in small claims court. Um and we were provided with by certified mail a notice of claim uh regarding her claim. That's our that's her obligation under state statute if you're going to sue a government entity. A school district is a government entity. Um that was allowed after our first hearing uh because of our motion to dismiss based on the fact that we did not receive a proper notice of claim. The court commissioner saw fit because as a court commissioner the plaintiff and the defendant have the right to have the case heard before a judge regardless of the outcome. So it's not a retrial, it's not a doover. It's just that you have that opportunity and to save the time to the judge, which I think

037makes a lot of sense. The court commissioner said, "I'll give you the opportunity to submit the notice of claim properly because I would dismiss it and the judge would dismiss it, too, because the district makes an excellent point, which is he didn't file a proper notice of claim." So, she has done that. uh in talking with our legal counsel, you are asked to take formal action on denying that notice of claim because of course our my viewpoint as well as that of our uh legal um consultant or advice is that there's not a claim here that we owe nothing to Governor Caller and so I on behalf of the district will appear whenever the next hearing happens and provide our information as required and uh the court commissioner and or judge will make a decision.

038I will point out that if it's heard before a court commissioner again with judge inclined to think it will be then there will be um the likelihood of another hearing before a judge if we wouldn't necessarily call for that butler might and so there's a good potential that we have two more of these hearings before it's completely ruled on and and done. I don't know when the next hearing will be. Uh but we are supposed to take action which you'll be asked to do in the board meeting portion to deny that claim. I then mail her the fact that you denied that claim if you so choose uh via certified mail and from there I'm guessing we'll get another hearing questions on that look. >> Okay. All right. The next step then we'll call the

039board meeting to order. Start with the pledge of allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. >> Call Matt Rice >> here. >> Tasha Rager >> here. >> Don Milky >> here. Ronnie Schuler Mccertie >> here. >> Matt, would you mind reading the mission statement and the rules of the meeting? >> Sure. The mission of the school district of St. Croy Falls is to provide a supportive student- centered learning environment that cultivates character, fosters academic excellence, and embraces diversity. The board meeting rules focus on the mission. Vision statements of a district. Come prepared. Be respectful of others and open accepting of ideas. actively participate. Voidside conversations. Remember, board meetings are open

040forum. >> Thank you, Matt. We don't have anybody from the public here. Um, no presentations or awards, so we'll just move right into the curriculum and policies and we'll vote on the 2027 Washington DC New York City trip that was presented to us last meeting. I'll take a motion to approve that. >> I'll make that motion. >> We have a motion by Matt. >> Second by Tasha. Any further discussion? All those in favor say I. >> I. >> Opposed. The motion carries. Next, we'll take a motion to uh deny the claim submitted by Deer. I do have one quick question because I should w up. >> Um, okay. So, you explained to us before kind of a refresher that you know as superintendent for example, you there might be a class where a teacher goes

041home sick. You're it you got to fill in and you could explain like yeah, you don't get teachers pay and your pay, right? So, that's kind of what this is all about, right? Like >> the basis of the claim is that her claim is that she was led to believe by former principal Daryl Limhof that she would be paid her interpreter rate and sub rate simultaneously and that there's no bearing in of of well from my perspective there's no bearing of truth in that. The conversation that I had with Shelley Schmidz and Daryl Limhoff would be that she'd be paid the higher the two either long-term sub rate or interpreter pay. And the long-term sub rate, unfortunately, it was only like 43 cents or 46 cents, and don't quote me on the number, but a

042smidgen higher than what the interpreter pay was. >> And so that's the lump sum of the issue which caused her to walk off the job. And the other question, >> the is the claim also for additional time since the individual walked away from the job that they lost income because they chose to step away. >> Correct. But also chose not to follow the procedures to request time off or communicate with a supervisor with respect to return or anything. So we parted ways as a result of job abandonment basically.
