003I'm just going to highlight uh an item or two tied to each of our board Focus goals going forward so you're always going to see this continuous Improvement now student support staff support commitment to community fiscal accountability and Facilities Management and then something that I keep saying I I borrowed from Dustin's money memo is something to make you smile here at the end so just first and foremost uh we got molly here in the off or in our uh boardroom with us and we're so excited to have Mol really sad for the Pleasant Grove committee I'll I'll be the first to acknowledge that but if you have not heard uh Mrs Griffin has been named the Jackson principal uh Jackson Elementary yeah we've got the plant here and the thing is for you uh I'll

004bring it over to you here in just a second I had the opportunity to talk with our leadership this morning just about Molly's Journey as she was um you know it's hard to leave a place and and and then just to put yourself out there like I'm G to do it and I was so impressed with Molly uh and Vera's guidance I know Lisa Dustin and I met with her to talk about uh applying and just help her with her thinking and get tight about who she was as a who she is as a leader and just kind of just be as a sounding board for her and she just dove into this met with Michelle several times learned as much as she could about the Jackson Community actually has a son um that van

005is a TK there he going to be a kindergartener here soon and um she just crushed it in here we always we tell people when they come in for an interview we want you to relax and there's no trick questions and everyone on the panels hoping you hit a home run like no one up here is hoping you hit a single or you like fail miserably we just want you to be wildly successful with your interview and if it pencils out that we hire you great but we're rooting for you and I'm so glad we teed it up and Molly you crushed it uh in the first round interview and then the second round uh with with Dustin Lisa and I just affirmed what the first panel had said and what we've seen from your

006leadership at the school site so really excited to have um Molly join us in a new role and to be remaining in uh in our district so once again congratulations we've got am I supposed to give the these away now or yeah uh so on student support I just thought this actually I didn't even plan this but um we had students on the right hand side there our AVID program which we're very proud of at Pleasant Grove they were down at UC Davis I think they've been at sax State too already this year they're headed there no what's that oh okay I'll I'll I'll I'll I don't want to steal your thunder and then on and then on the left-and side I thought this was just such a point at picture this is one of

007our struggling Learners and I think it's just a testament to I I think people think of like what school door closes and the teachers stands up and there's 27 students or 22 or 30 and it's just this I stand here and deliver and there's so many opportunities in our district where we're actually pulling out kids especially in our younger grades um but at all grades um that are just struggling and sitting down and really just trying to ramp their learning up and I thought this picture really just captured um this is just a teacher that pulled one of her kids aside while the larger group was doing something and she's doing some small group instruction with that I I think just the attention to detail on how we support our students was quite poignant and

008that's Mr Mali who you've seen uh on the right hand side there usually see him holding a basketball Banner because he's the basketball coach at Pleasant Grove um they're always winning championships this culture vence with staff support on the left-hand side as you know we've launched um we're in a very competitive uh market for our employees and I'm really ploud proud of our team and our HR department we've launched a recruitment um and referral program that's gone out we had one uh gentleman actually the uh custodian at Pleasant Grove um drove down to a I think it was the Macy's and Citrus Heights that's closing and took 20 heard there was 26 employees being laid off and drove down there with E's like if I can make 250 bucks a person passing these things out

009on a referral bonus yeah I thought that I said I love that uh so I hope we get to write Link in a mass massive check for his recruitment because that's what we're trying to do is is just recruit we have a like every District right now we have a lot of vacancies and to just sit back and like put an ad out and say well I hope someone applies and just wait around and like I'm proud of our team for being proactive and saying we got to get a little bit more aggressive in this area and you can see the jobs that are listed there these are very hard to fill jobs our van and bus drivers our instructional assistants and our food service workers um they're those signing bonuses are quite uh healthy

010for those positions so um I'm looking forward to collecting data as we go through the spring and the hiring season and coming back and sharing that with you and on the other side this is another Pleasant Grove picture you guys are this was not intentional I promise um Pleasant Grove allowed our special ed Department to host the first annual hopefully rescue special chili event so they had a chili cook off with the sped staff the SP our sped teachers uh there is so much compliance so much stress so much time sensitivity to what they do this was just an opportunity to still have a meeting but do it in a fun way they had a competition I think they had four or five teachers that entered in their um uh they're Chili's they had a

011great time Miss Burkhart who's uh Mr burkhart's wife won the chil just so you know if you're wanting to taste chili Mr burkart's wife is the one that won that but I thought just a again just another opportunity for us to support our staff in in ways that are sometimes just uncommon but very thoughtful our commitment to community here we just wrapped up our basketball season and what I love about our basketball our our basketball season is that not every District in the county participates in this not everyone Fields teams at every single school there are many sports that we are engaged in that know that uh schools just don't even that schools aren't even offering it's just really nice to be able to go see our kids compete against each other especially at the

012elementary level where we have our own League um there's not the opportunity to play with a lot of schools around us CU almost no one's doing it at the elementary level and so um I I really like that our team has created the our own League where our kids can do that and then when they get to the middle school they've had some experience and they're able to excel there and then on the right hand side it was International women's day was last Saturday and so on Friday Debbie shed the librarian at Lake Forest hosted International women's day this is the second annual event they had 22 uh very um uh inspirational strong cre courageous women uh Jaime's sister was one of the presenter Dustin's wife was one of the presenters uh a lot of

013folks that showed up there we had 29 women that just talked about their career that breakout sessions booths that were set up that kids could go around and visit and just learn what they did they had Flyers they had demonstrations uh last year we had 22 women that signed up to uh do this event and we had 29 this year um and it seems like the new people that came said ah I I know someone who would be great for this next year so um just uh really cool event that Debbie shed again the lady on the left-hand side uh facilitated and Renee who's there in the middle the principal helped organize as well and the Goat showed up as well that was the hit our fiscal accountability I'm not going to steal Lisa Thunder

014I know everyone's excited for the budget presentation this evening so I I won't take away any of Lisa but I will tell you this that we have a very uh we have a healthy budget we're going to have a qualified budget um and Lisa is going to be sharing a lot of the numbers that are in there and I I'm so appreciative that our that we run a very fiscally conservative budget and and we're also able to lean in and do so many things for our students and our staff I think this is the last one here and our facilities management uh jeez another Pleasant Grove um Pleasant Grove we are I I swear I did not plan it this way um we are almost near construction thank you parents who are navigating drop off

015and pick up at this school site right now I know it's a it's not pleasant when I try to get in there for the end of school for a faculty meeting or anything it's there there's a lot of everyone gets settled in the ray about where they drop off their kid and then we move it and then we move it again and we're going to move it one more time um and we're really close Lis and I met with the team today they're are going to be they're G to not be doing work tomorrow and Thursday because the weather which is going to set us back about two days but these have gone up so quickly um it's been so impressive and uh as you know it promises uh you know millions and millions of

016dollars of savings over the next 25 years um and uh really fun to see this thing go up and I'm looking forward to seeing it come to fruition and on the leth hand side um just a reminder I think this is the rescue uh garden and this this was literally dirt and I I wish I had a better picture but you know they've got a structure there now the actual Garden has um cement walls that are at you know about kneecap height maybe waist height for some of our kindergarten students there and that this spans a tremendous uh space behind the school and it just was a reminder to me as I was walking by you like you know three years ago this was dirt and no kid was out here and now we've got

017this thriving Garden um that is producing um really um you know just quality learning for our kids and in some in some cases vegetables that I have shared with you now are being shipped down to the Pleasant down to Pleasant Grove where our uh Main Kitchen is I shared a picture I believe on Friday with you of a local vendor that where we bought lettuce from locally we're trying to get to a spot where we can even rely on our local Gardens a little bit more for that so I think that's the last oh we got one more oh yeah this is the something you makes SM this little kid on the left hand side uh you can't see him he's buried underneath these for they have these cards these are students that are struggling

018uh academically and and just um are in a very small tight it setting and they Al sometimes experience some Behavior swings that a typical student might not this kid they have these little cards like how are you feeling and they can just go up and rather than acting out they can just go up and move their card like I'm feeling blue is a color for I'm not feeling all that great this little kid goes up and puts his blue and the the four of the kids in the class saw him and just G came up to give him a hug and just try to get him to change that card from Blue back to whatever the positive color orange for the positive color but it so heavy on and that they fell the ground and

019the teacher just happened to take a picture of it I thought it was just a really heartwarming thing in the middle here is Marina Village Middle School what I love about this picture is look at the kids and I mean you don't need to look at the cylinder or that hand in the front but as I was looking at this picture every single kid in that class is just fascinated about what's going on at that moment in that class no one's looking away no one's rolling their eyes are just disinterested just to to a kid and this was just a snapshot when I saw when Dustin had shared it with me I just thought that that is exactly what we want in all of our classes at least at some I know it's not going

020to happen six hours a day but it needs to happen during the day and then on the right hand side this was one of my favorite things they do a battle of the books at Green Valley with these kids am I still going these kids that create teams and it's like the NCAA tournament except the questions are and it's like it's like Jeopardy around books but it's bracketed so you create your team and you're answering questions about books and in the background there were a number of kids that were cheering this was an internal class competition that between two classes that was going on and one of these teams ended up making it to the finals I didn't get a great picture of that but they did the finals in the MP room all the

021kids attended and they were answering these questions about books and the authors and it was I didn't know one and I've read these age these book most of the books they were talking about I'm like I can't remember the author's name I can't remember that specific and they were just on it it was just really fun to see how we've taken uh you know we do a lot of sport stuff in here where we celebrate our teams because we do very well with Pleasant Grove Marina Village especially at in our leagues just an example of that we can have a fun competition with some rewards and a lot of cheering for kids that are also books Smart in this case so and that and I'm sure that's it yeah there so yeah thank you any

022questions no all questions thank you very much for that Jim it always uh I think I can speak for all of us seeing those pictures and just getting a feel for what's been taking place over the last couple weeks since we were last together it just it makes us feel good makes us feel positive so thank you for that um next up we have celebrating excellence and we have a presentation on Pleasant Grove Middle School and I'm going to assume that's why we have the bulk of the audience here tonight I'm just going to go out on a limb so thank you all for being here for this oh my goodness thank you we've never gotten control the slides all right you guys you know that I'm be I'm the principal Pleasant Grove and then

023tonight we're gonna kind of continue where we were last year presenting on our AVID program Molly Griffin vice principal St and our students come on up you guys excellent good all right so at Pleasant grow for the last six years we've been sitting around the same demographics as far as enrollment goes right around 470 students and as you know at Pleasant Grove we have a large special ed program that we're really proud of we have five sections of special ed and three sections of SDC and those students push in throughout our general education program throughout this school day so we're really proud of those students short we're going to rotate off and on throughout the presentation with our students coming up and then I'm going to hold some of their poster boards up as well

024so we're going to rotate back and forth throughout the mic yeah I know Dustin's never given us control of this the clicker Dustin this is fancy so what we're going to share about today is a lot about our AVID program and I know last year we shared a lot about our Avid binder system to really keep our students organized um and so the Avid binder system is an essential component of avid so the pictures that you see here the students on the right are our Avid students they spent about three days over the summer building over 400 Avid binders for all of our students so at our p walk um that usually happens right in early August kids come through and they pick up their textbooks and their schedule but they can also for a

025donation have a fully ready to-go Avid binder and that includes the actual binder paper five tab dividers a pencil pouch that has red pens black pens um black and blue ink they need a highlighter these are all the essential components of a binder so hold on you're testing me um the glue stick the scissors the earbud so really it's ready to go for them so they're ready to Pathfinder check so they just work really hard to put this system together to really make it effective for our students the picture on the left is all of the Avid supplies that we order so these are actually all the leftover supplies we go through supplies throughout the year if a student loses something we help them replace it but what we love about this is Miss Cindy

026our secretary um she's pretty Pinterest perfect worthy so her supplies are very organized and she's very proud of them and we really appreciate it she does little things like this for us she has she's wonderful she's um okay so next up we are going to have Holly come up and present on something that we've been focusing on throughout the entire school year with both our students and our staff for our professional development focus and our academic focus and actually all of you have a copy of this in front of you this is our costus level of thinking and you're going to be quizzed on this throughout the presentation you have a copy of ca's level of thinking and then Molly will talk to you about the next step as well so Holly take it away

027you're a little taller than me okay the Costa levels of questions are different levels of thinking and strategized questions ask by one for you to answer and talk with your peers maybe about it there are three different levels level one questions are answered by looking in the text level two is readers inferring answers from what the text implicitly States level three is the reader thinks beyond the text and what it states these answers are based on the reader POV and their own knowledge and experience we have been taught this the continuing school year and it will help us in the future thank you Holly so what we have in front of you is um they're called Cornell notes and so this is again an avid note-taking philosophy strategy that's used and so Lexi's going to

028come up and share a little bit about um Cornell notes in a moment but this is your homework for today or you are the student today and so we have um some questions that we're asking throughout the presentation allowing if you'd like to please take notes but this is just an example of an avid strategy that we use um for and that our students use regularly so Lexie you want to come share a line on a paper is a way to help students study you'll split it in half and basically use it as a flash card then at the bottom you have the summary where you sum up everything you've learned and I think cornels are an amazing way to help students study and learn and even if you don't use coron notes as flashcards

029I think it's the best way you can do notes all right now Molly's going to tell talk to you a little bit more about annotations and how we use them throughout the classroom so the picture on the left you'll see some Avid strategies annotation key and so this is different symbols that our students use and this is used throughout our entire campus not just in our Avid classes so when students are reading a text they're using different symbols to mark that text they're doing that sometimes in their Cornell notes as well and then the picture on the right is a students in um I'm not sure what class it is I think it's a history class but they're doing some close reading strategies where they're just really rereading the text multiple times to gain that

030deeper understanding and ask those deeper level questions so just some Avid strategies that work for you guys how are they looking do they look as good as you yeah all right Jim jumped ahead a little bit on this one it's okay so um at Pleasant gro we don't just require them to take notes all day we also allow our students to go on some fun field trips throughout the school year and thanks to Lisa with her budget so remember this she does give us a little bit of funding in our budget for this so our students go on multiple field trips throughout the school year so we have some students going to talk to you about that right now so at our College field trip to UC Davis we had a tour guide tourist all

031around the school while we take Avid Cornell notes um I'm important Keynotes of the college and the campus after the tour we get to walk around to get a feel of the college life these field trips have really motivated me and my peers to work hard and get into college someday so for the second trimester we went to fome college and we had one of the students take us off into groups to give us a tour and see classes in action including um the theater and dance class class and we got to see different clubs and then we were sent off for an hour and a half to live college life and see what it's like to be a college student and really encourage us to work hard Mr Miki does require notes on the

032field trip as ailia said they get a little break too all right so tomorrow we actually have our college fair we've already had our um career fair this year but tomorrow is our starting at 12:45 you're all invited it's in our gym and we get some college swag actually Starbucks just gave us this college swag so that'll be out on the tables the students um they go out to different colleges and college swag from there and they call different colleges and so they will be presenting their thank you sorry I thought it was like they will be presenting their college boards tomorrow and then tonight they're presenting their career boards and their college boards to you guys all right so first up we have Kaitlyn oh yes this is their little tool to calm them

036writing mathematics a scuba license and a boating license some benefits for this job are you get to travel and really see what life is like in the ocean because only 5% of it is discovered wow okay now we have Liam with his college board I have Joe Stanford it is a very hard to it's a very hard school to get into with a 4% acceptance rate and you will need a 3.8 GPA at least to get in the tuition is $624 there is 6,914 students two fun facts are the main color is red and the mascot's name is the Stanford tree the top three Sports are football basketball and volleyball here are some of the sports on and activities on the left and Holly with her college board my college is Yale University which is

037located in New Haven Connecticut um I'm thinking yeah the total enrollment is 15,8 47.5% male 50.9% female the average GPA is 4.8 the SAT scores is 1,500 to 1 1560 ACT scores are 33 to 35 top three men's sport is men's golf men's swimming and men's basketball top three women's sports is soccer ice hockey and Tennis um Yale is required is required Yale is recognized for its culture of groundbreaking research and Innovation a fun fact about Yale is that they have done monkey training in 2005 to probably make a shamrock shake I don't know that's a fun fact to list all right amriel with her college board my college is University of Texas at Austin the cost to attend with an aid is 17519 without an aid is 31572 coursework requirements are a high high

038school diploma with at least a 2.75 GPA the acceptance rates is 29% per year that gives me some hope top three female sports are softball tennis and Basketball top three male sports are basketball football and golf UT has 53.3% wom and 43.6% Men the school colors are burnt orange and white and black their mascot hookum is a longhorn one special thing about my college is how much pride they have in their Sports sport sports events are always packed and very competitive and they're very widely known for their football team tonight there's more to come all right Miss Griffin year obviously our Focus for the students and for our staff has been around this Costas level of thinking so that higher order questioning and so what we've done as a staff we've kind of have a

039um two interactive notebooks if you will we have actually a hard copy that every staff has and so they bring this to our professional development and we put all of our resources in there um we have a Avid coach and she's from skoy so she comes out provides PD for us as well so all those materials and he hand outs different lessons that our teachers can use implementing Costa's level of thinking it is all found in here but it's also online in our interactive Notebook online and the reason we have an online notebook is because we have to provide data every year to remain an avid school we have to fill out what's called the CCI the coaching and certification instrument there's 72 different criteria that we have to provide data for so this resource

040online provides our allows our teachers to dump all their work that they're doing all the student samples lessons using Costa's level of thinking and infusing that into that work here so all of our data lives here so it's been really helpful for us to have that online but also for teachers to have that Resource as well all right so we don't just force kids to work all day long in the classroom and make boards and go to colleges and think about their careers we also like to recognize our students and have positive student recognition so if we could have Liam come up and he's going to talk first about that student recognition is a huge thing for our school we have student of the trimester 100 Merit parties Clash of classes Puma pride tickets and

041honor roll my personal favorite is student of the trimester because you get recognized for your good deeds and hard work one thing we don't have in the candy cart is the sh shamrock shake which I think we should add cool they're they're talking a lot about Shamrock Shakes I don't know if you know what they are they're it's a right at McDonald's right now just in time guys want us to reward you today or something for all this hard work okay and now we have Lexi coming up to talk a little bit more about this rallies dances and Puma paloa uh rallies dances Puma paloa spirit days and sports are some things that Pleasant Grove rewards us with Puma Pala is one of our first um events that we have at Pleasant Grove Puma Pala

042is basically just a ton of carnival games bounce houses there's go-karts cone of ice and then or dances they have photo booth which are my favorite and then there's music and you get to hang out with your friends um my personal favorite though are the rallies because leadership does an amazing job um setting up the rallies and picking out like the themes and Leadership picks about three students from each grade and puts them in the games and I think it's just fair fun I just realized I took this picture of Liam on maybe the third week of school he's so big now oh my God sorry I'm sorry you all are they've all yeah okay so that's our presentation you guys thank you so so much and we actually we do have a little something

043for all our students so they kept telling us for the last week they had to get their college boards ready a week earlier than everybody else they kept telling us we had to get them something so none for the bo are there any questions where's my sh thank you you guys they have worked very very hard on this and if you want to blame anybody for your work this is Christa Evans fault she's um is our sco represented for Avid and she said you know what you should have the board go through what the kids go through so so funny any questions all Allen in first I'm so proud of you students for getting up and speaking so professionally in front of a large group of um maybe strangers so job well done you guys

044did a very great job I mean I'm just going to Echo that I mean you all got up and did such a good job some of you didn't even have notes you were just like professionals you should all be very proud of yourselves there are adults who quiver to get up to speak I mean I I mean I have watched people just really not not be able to pull it off and for you guys to already be able to do that I am super impressed I I I believe everybody is going to the school they want to go to and I believe that everyone's going to go into the career they wanted because you guys are showing that level of discipline and dedication so excellent job I don't have any par am I can you

045not hear me oh oh you were saying I was like oh okay e I'm never accused of being like a quiet shrinking violet so I'm like are you you can't hear me uh just to Echo Jamie and Kim's comments I do think that presentation in public speaking skills are so important in all different areas not just in school or even in employment but just in interaction you know personal interaction so the fact that you all can you know get up and make that happen was amazing and the voice projection was fabulous so y but I do want I do have a quick question because it does seem that Pleasant Grove has it all together with Avid is there an interest in becoming a demonstration site or gosh I mean it would be amazing to become

046a demonstration site definitely wouldn't shy away from it is your is your scoey rep talking to you about that possibility at all um we have to show we have to have um tutors to be so and is that where is that where that's definitely one a 72 areas and that's one of the hiccups and you need the high school tutors and that's just problematic with distance location yeah well I think you should be one without the Tut and she's being very modest uh I worked with Michelle I was Michelle's principal for a short period of time and she was one of our Avid teachers and also I believe Will Rogers was a demonstration site at the time was a middle school teacher in uh CIT CIT sites area uh as a at a national demonstration

047site so when I saw all the Avid stuff I was trying to watch out of the corner of my eye where where you were an amazing job this year with learning how to write the questions and respond to the questions and the higher ers thinking that it's' been incredible to watch them they are amazing and so when I went into their classrooms and asked who wants to present on this this is such a good idea and going to our board and teaching them about it and they all were like I'll do it like oh well thank you you help me make this presentation and they had to come and it was like let's practice for 15 minutes here 10 minutes here and it like getting interrupted every five seconds and making the boards early and

048they just great job may ask one more question sorry how many of you are eighth graders oh almost everybody are only seventh graders okay fabulous and will you have the opportunity to pursue Avid at high school no okay this is their last year okay do they have it I'm sorry do they have it at they have it at oage though this is O even with it having our site what they've gotten out of it is huge because they're ready to go sorry yeah they're still ready to go and just what you've seen with their presentation what they've learned about college and what they've learned about taking notes is huge so there their study skills and essays and is in it's huge what how much they've grown you know I I have there you go I

049I I actually think that it should be built into not just eighth grade in Middle School I think it should be in high school like just hearing that it's no longer um I mean it used to be at oakd I I think that the skills that that are taught I I wish I had an avid class I still like if you if you guys look at my notes I'm not a great Note Taker I mean I've done okay in life but um uh I but I'm not that's not like just that is a great skill to have and it will set you up to be able to accomplish things better and easier and um and just that mindset of that you I love seeing that you all have like like sky's the limit nobody's limiting

050themselves like oh I probably can't do that it's like you know the go bigger go home and I I love that and I am you know my my brain is trying to process how to you know Inspire the high school to continue it on because it it does seem to have such huge value um so I was wondering I mean that just for a few things about maybe an avid club or talking to the AVID coordinator at the high school and seeing if there's any interest in that at the very least just to kind of continue to connect with your peers that have the same interest as you do in terms of college because I recognize that when you get to high school there's a lot of different Avenues to take and a lot of

051different interests and sometimes just meeting continually continually continually and consistently with people who share your same dreams and hopes and you know um desires might continue to push you on that path and I I I bet you your AVID coordinator may be um would be interested in supporting some type of club or something that if you were interested in that I'd love to see that continue on and Ponderosa has it to where every year the students come together and they create the clubs and then the stiens are based around that too so I bet they would yeah don't forget about me you guys did all did amazing um I have one question do you know what the great a human being's greatest fear is it's public speaking and you guys did it without even knowing

052you were gonna get a share uh I think the AVID program is amazing I was blessed to have a wonderful tour that both of you gave me and I I sat in with on one of the Avid classes and just was so impressed I remember last year when as a newer board member you introduced the program to me and it really hit home uh I'd love to go to the college for tomorrow but I can't I have a a lunch in tomorrow where uh I work with with a group of local uh community members were giving two scholarships out to high school seniors uh um from to from All We've looked at 150 applicants um all from elderado Union Schools uh I've read 50 of them myself and the the most prominent thing that I

053noticed was the avator it was mentioned in so many applications so the the experience that you guys are getting is just invaluable um here within Middle School it's going to take you your whole life I wish I wish my girls had the opportunity to go through a very similar program so um you guys did an amazing job and uh and thank you very much thank you thank you guys so much great work you guys you everyone um so um that kind of concludes the presentation that was really really fun I don't know if the rest of our board meeting is going to be as interesting or EXC in yeah funny is out well we'd love to have everyone stay you are welcome to stay for the rest of the meeting I do have to say

054it probably won't be as exciting as this part of it but you are welcome to do so the next part that we move into as public comment but if you do find that you want to do something else with your evening you are all free to go do that right now and thank you again for a really great presentation thank you parents thank you students yeah congrats Molly well deserved yep I was in the mood for that I am so glad we got I I feel like I haven't had like that student touch in a little bit oh um so that is hilarious I think that's I think it was too now that you say that so I was like that's unusual but that's cool that they got there so me too that's what I

055was thinking I feel like I was wanting that and then like as soon as I saw that all the students here I I literally lit up I was like oh good I didn't even I didn't even know that's what what I was missing all right well okay fine um I guess we will go on no um so the next item on our agenda is public comment I don't see anyone in our audience this is normally when we have someone come up and want to speak to us that something on something that is not on the agenda but like I said there is no one here um that looks like they want to speak so I think we can move on and that would bring us to item uh number two on our agenda which is

056the csba delegate Assembly Election ballot yeah well you have the opportunity this evening to uh cast one ballot for the board um just so you're aware CBS delegates are elected by our CBS member boards and those delegates serve a two-year term uh we have a vacancy in our region which is sub region 6C so not that you have to memorize that um but as a whole again we're allowed to cast one ballot and typically um a name is forwarded by a board we had an opportunity to do that few um couple months ago we did not for a name but the elderado Union high school district has forwarded a name they're asking for us to consider and I'm recommending that we um cast our one vote for Jessica Rogers she has previously served on it

057she I feel like she represents us well and uh so tonight um it's an opportunity for you to discuss it but I am make it a recommendation that we cast our one vote for Jessica Rogers board any thoughts on Jessica Rogers she has represented us well in the past so I am ful in support of that perfect are we all in agreement agreed let's do it yeah I I think Jessica is great I think she's you know I served with her on the um County School Board and she's been the president of that she's very thorough and organized probably took Avid at some point in our life anyway um okay great so um this is an action item so do I have a motion please we use our nomination for Jessica Robert Rogers or Jessica

058Roberts yeah I don't to I get it right I second that oh and I was thinking Julia Robert I okay please understand okay so we have a a mo to be clear we have a motion on the uh table to uh nominate um and support Jessica Rogers for the uh csba delegate assembly do I have a second please okay oh thank you okay it's been moved to Second all in favor great now we are on item number three uh the certificated Personnel intention to eliminate reduced positions good evening um before uh we get to this item I did want to um share a little bit uh just you were talk the board was talking about um Avid at the high school level Union mine is still offering Avid in the elado Union High School District

059so I do know that because my kids go there so um so that is available in our district as far as that goes this that I'm aware of yes because the other as you heard they're discontinuing so Union mind is carrying it forward it seems to me just from what I know that each of the four has kind of their specific Niche that they're trying to kind of build in and so um so Union mine is carrying the Avid piece forward so as far as that program in our area uh goodness I'm not aware of um I'm not aware of any to be honest with you I think Pleasant Grove in our county is the only one yeah the second thing I wanted to share is at Pleasant Grove and this this this was relevant

060today uh and Jim has gotten to do this too is is that we've been invited several times By Glenda de la crw she's one of the Avid teachers for sixth grade and we've been invited to speak to the class and they ask us questions about our college experience what it took to apply where we went what was our major did we change Majors um did we get scholarships did we how do we pay for it all the things and so I got to be there today to answer those questions and to talk to them kids were asking all kinds of questions about you know well how do I um you know is a junior college the way to go you know can I trans for it was really good and so every trimester it's part

061of a wheel in sixth grade is that we get a different group of sixth graders that go through Avid and we get to participate in that so just thought I would share so um so that being said uh just to the item uh resolution 2501 um we're at the time of year uh where we are um working and projecting based on our staffing and based on our funds and our ability to provide um work and so uh during these times we do have have periodic changes that result uh in the reduction of hours and elimination of positions for certificated employees and so part of the process is is that the board uh must formally approve a reduction of hours and or elimination of positions and so to give the board some um some status around

062that education code 44949 and 44955 it requires that notice be given to effective employees by March 2025 and at this time the district is proposing the elimination of two positions due to lack of funds or lack of work those positions are a district-wide counseling position and a roving RSP teaching position and so at this time uh we are recommending that the board adopt resolution number 251 to eliminate or reduce certificated positions including transmitt of appropriate notices to affected employees okay board we have uh have this presented to us do we have any questions or would we like to discuss okay then it is an action item uh do I have a motion all motion to adopt and approve uh agenda number three resolution number 25- the do I have a second okay it's been moved

063and seconded all in favor say I I I all right bringing us to item number for certificated Personnel non reelection of certificated employee okay thank you uh Education Code 449 29.2 provides that the governing board must determine to non reelect a temporary or probationary certificated employee and so at this time we have a position employee ID number 4239 uh as a non- reelect position and so at this time we are asking the board um to adopt resolution 2502 to non- reelect District employee ID number 4239 um any questions or comments okay this also is an action item um can I get a motion please adop resolution number 2502 for employee position 4239 great can I get a second please okay it's been moved and seconded all in favor I all right bringing us to item

064number five this is classified Personnel reduction of hours elimination of positions okay Mr Haley thank you so similar to certificated uh we're at this time of year where there are changes that will require a reduction of hours and or elimination of positions for classified employees and as mentioned previously the board must formally approve the reduction of hours and or elimination of positions Education Code 45117 A and B require the notice be given to the affected employees a minimum of 60 days prior to the effective date of the layoff the district is proposing the elimination or reduction in days hours of the following positions for uh the 25 26 year due to lack of funds or lack of work the positions are as follows a mechanic assistant position uh three food service worker positions one for

065one hour one 30 minutes one for 45 minutes a kindergarten Aid position two Title One instructional Aid positions of two and a half hours each and an instructional Aid position of six hours so at this time uh we're recommending that the board approve resolution 2503 to reduce and or eliminate the positions listed thank you very much board uh any thoughts uh questions comments to eliminate or are some of those to reduce some of those to eliminate some are to reduce hours uh or to reduce a certain amount of time so it's not the complete position some are the position some are a reduction of hours or partial amounts really quickly I heard mechanic assistant three Food Services one IIA two Title One positions it's really two IAS a kindergarten instructional assistant and then a regular

066instructional assistant but some of those aren't th those are just some of those are for I was just going to say they were just for like an hour or 4 yeah so those are just reductions so can can I give a little context to it thank you would you address the mechanic to because that's the one that appears to be a layoff that's not yeah so the um instructional assistance we had um additional funds for our Title One program that was in the budget for supplies and the rescue and Green Valley sites decided instead of purchasing um supplies they added some additional time towards the end of this year to their current Title 18 so it just extended some hours and so it's just reducing that additional time that was added to them at the

067end of this year so for most of those hours that's what that is we do have one Kinder Aid um that we are reducing a Kinder class at one site until we know for sure that we have more students in roll so should we end up with more than that would come back but for now we're reducing that class um the um Food Service workers those were increased because we had um rescue Elementary wasn't didn't have their normal kitchen and so to accommodate some of the back and forth because we couldn't wash dishes there they also had to set up separately from so there was just a lot of extra time and we actually had some extra um um well we had three different people I think with additional times within that so that is

068all just getting them back to their normal schedule the mechanic assistant um we are in the middle of uh negotiating a revised or an updated mechanic uh job description so I want to say back in 2021 just before we got here maybe 2020 um just before I got to rescue a um mechanic position was archived and a lead mechanic position was created to accommodate for the fact that we have a lot of electric buses and the added responsibilities of having all the electric buses was identified in this lead position um with that we also um instead of having two mechanics we instead had a mechanic and an assistant mechanic however what we're finding is that that is not necessarily um meeting the needs for all of the buses that we have we have more buses

069the electric buses that we had envisioned would have less maintenance or actually having more maintenance than was expected and it takes almost twice as long to identify issues because of the way that you can't just run a quick diagnostic the way you can on a diesel um so they're finding that the needs of that department is greater than um a lead and an assistant however because there's so much overlap we're really wanting to revise the mechanic position before we unarchive it and put it back into play so the ultimate goal is to um keep the person that we have there but transition them to a mechanic position we can't do that without actually laying off the assistant mechanic we're going to go through the rest of this year we're meeting with CSEA to um to

070uh agree to a revision to that mechanic position and then we would post that internally and then with the goal of having our assistant mechanic apply and potentially get that job now the um worst case scenario is we don't come up with a mechanic an agreement on a a revised mechanic job description we would then resend this um layoff notice because we do need two people there so the intent is not to really impact people um it's really about just revising getting people back to where they were or revising that mechanic position and for the AIDS we actually sorry I know you're getting ready but for the AIDS we actually do have other Aid positions that this person could fall into at other sites because we're going to have additional TK classes and things so

071our goal is not to impact people at this point so we don't anticipate much of that unless people don't want to change sites Lisa thank you so much for that background that was super helpful that's great um well with that uh I don't know if anyone has any questions because I think she's covered all of it um so uh but if you have a question let me know um or any comment ments otherwise this is an action item again and I'll take a motion I'll move to uh approve item sorry agenda number five resolution 25- Z3 it's been moved and seconded all in favor I I great thank you Dustin all right that brings us to item number six this is our second interim budget update that's you okay there we go good evening um

072and welcome to Second interim time so this is a revision um let me actually go back yeah this is um a reminder of what we really build our budget with it's really with the needs and priorities of students and while we can't do everything we really try or we can do anything but we can't do everything right so what we really look for is where our priorities are in meeting all the student needs and that's how this budget is built um as a reminder of our timeline and certifications first interim we uh did in December this is second interim it's due by March 15th um each time that we do an interim report we identify whether we are positive qualified or negative and um I'm going to go ahead and give you a spoiler alert

073we are positive um but by identifying either positive qualified or negative it's indicating whether we can meet all of our um liabilities from now through the end of this year through the end of next year and also through the end of the third year which is 26 27 this is our financial cycle for this year um right now we're at second interim after this you will hear this budget one more time in June it will be still a wrap up of where we think we're going to land that one's built in May because it is also tied to the our l cap and our budget for the 2526 school year and um then we'll get un audited actuals that will be our final that's closing out the year and where did we actually land and

074then the final wrap-up of this year will be in um December January time frame with our our audit report um so today we're going to go through all of the budget assumptions for this year and then the next two years um updated attendance and enrollment it's um slightly lower than we had anticipated at first interim but we do have some updated revenues and expenditures that are creating some good news for us right now um stirs and purs updated and a look into the future separate to this report in your packet is an updated cash flow report multi-year projections um with details out and then an all fund summary that um goes through all of our additional funds this report is primarily focused not primarily it is focused on fund um our general fund and then

075again the next time we'll talk talk about this is in June so these are our assumptions that we used for this year and for the next two years and just kind of looking through each category you'll see that this year is the 1.07% cola the next two years we're anticipating 2.08 um are oh oh yeah I don't know why it has that weird um audio thing okay I don't know why that's on the screen um so we're still using a conservative Cola number um we won't hear an update from the governor until um May Revis it's still trending somewhere between two and 2.24 it's still trending somewhere in there I don't expect it to be any higher than this so I did use the lower of the numbers I've been hearing um I also used

076the same conservative number for 2627 there's really not a good way to predict that number today but there's a lot of people kind of estimating and guessing and assuming that it's going to be very similar um there's some people throwing out closer to a 3% number but I'm built a very conservative model um when we have more information then we can start building it with a different number but for now I'm still being relatively conservative our Ada um trended a little bit lower This Time by about 5 Ada the um difficulty in being funded on current year Ada is that every Ada counts in our revenue for this year so for the last several years we've be been either funded at prior year or we've been funded at a three-year average this year our Ada

077actually exceeded both of those numbers so we are funded at current year but because of that every time that we make an estimate or a projection of where we think we're going to be this year it affects our funding for this year um so we'll know that final number by June because um second interim or actually say the second time we report our final Ada for this year is in April so that number is getting close um for um the duplicated pupil count percent that is the students that are um economically disadvantaged our foster Youth and our um uh English language Learners those students generate a little bit extra funding for us and that's the percents right there we're looking like um those numbers are increasing just slightly and then our stirs and purs rates

078while our purs is increasing our stirs seem to be stabilizing we're not yet negoti iated for any of these three years and um we do have educator Effectiveness funding which is all of our professional development that is ending um next year so that is the last year for all of our our professional development through the educator Effectiveness um we do have a budget that um estimates four retirees in each of the out years we did do count and based on our notices of intent I anticipate to have a um probably about six more retirees that will be a positive effect on our budget when I bring it back in June but we'll have those final numbers um we just didn't have all of those at the time we were finalizing our staffing for next year

079um this is just a chart to demonstrate you know there was um you know 15 years ago we were um closer to 4,000 students in our district we have dropped but what I'm what we're enjoying is a little bit of a curve back up so I don't want to get too um aggressive with that so we're just kind of stabilizing it in our out years but it is a nice Trend that we're seeing that our neighboring districts aren't um is that we are seeing some growth and stability in our enrollment and our attendance these are a lot of numbers that I'm going to break down on future slides but the one thing I do want to point out is the very bottom where it says ending fund balance and as we go all the way

080out to the total variance um you we are um uh expecting to have almost 1.5 million additional funds in our ending fund balance at the end of this year um and we're going to talk about how we got there um so reminder our um revenues this is just where do our revenues come from this pie chart and you can see that the majority of our revenue does come from the local control funding formula or the lcff that's why our Revenue that is based on current year Ada it's so important to estimate and get that right um because it does affect 80% of our budget this is a graph that demonstrates how that local control funding formula is generating dollars for us the most of it is based on attendance those are those bottom two um

081um bubbles the base Grant is based on those um rates in the bottom right corner and in addition to that with a little Aster next to tk3 is our great span adjustment we generate those funds by keeping an average at each site an average class size of 24 um and then the supplemental Grant is that additional 18% of unduplicated pupil those English Learners lowincome and Foster youth we also within our lcff funding comes the um transportation um home to school transportation and then an old grant that we got from 2011 that never went away so we get a little bit of an add-on for that so changes um in our Revenue since first interim we have about 130,000 um additional funds coming in that as you can see this kind of breaks down each little

082thing um as I mentioned we have about 5 adaa less than we expected at first interim that's generating about 50,000 Less in lcff Revenue um we do have a little bit less in federal coming through our state our early intervention Grant was lower than was originally projected um the bulk of this change is really coming from our donations um which we don't count until they actually come in and those are site donations that come in for field trips for um different school events we're going to see that bump up again in the month of May because a lot of it comes in in May so we'll see another large jump when we bring this back in June um we also have some addition interest we low balled our interest a little bit because they seem

083to be fluctuating and and a little bit inconsistent so we like to lowball it and then we can uh recognize the additional interest as it comes in rather than over projecting um expenditures you can see 82% of our expenditures are based on um our um salaries and benefits the rest of it we have um just in our supplies and other outgo but the bulk of our budget really is um our uh salaries and benefits and because of that we've really done um I have to give uh Tim some Kudos our our budget technician he's been doing the job now for three and a half years and the first year um he was just kind of jumping in learning the job and now he's to the point where he's got it where he can really dig

084in and find where we can make improvements in our budget by finding errors in our system and went through our position control which is the module that maintains all of our our positions and our salaries and our salary projections and was able to find um almost $150,000 of benefits that were duplicating and from some of our um staff that were collecting cash and L and it was also generating benefits for them so he was able to unflag those because it's a very manual process because of the cash and loop piece so we had to go in and unflag those but it it um was able to find $150,000 we also went in and um adjusted this year's budget um not outy years but this year's budget for classified position that we have remained unfilled this

085is why we've really looked to that employee referral program we have a lot of positions that have been unfilled for either chunks of time or never filled all year and it's it's um it's been very very difficult for our sites to kind of go through this rotation of staff so we're really hoping that the employee referral program helps us resolve that um um and then those that 11,000 are the new title one AIDs that we moved from supplies so those are the um positions that I mentioned we also um while we're not Rel laying off the positions we're laying off those additional hours that were related to that um in books and supplies the bulk of this is related to a curriculum adoption budget that we are moving to 2526 um so we'll see that

086hit next year and in services and contracts is another big piece um where we had some savings this year we actually have some um special education students um that were in residential placements and they have since left those placements in addition to that what we had budgeted for them we had um essentially over budgeted what the cost to date would be so we were able to to capture some of those savings from now to the rest of the year um we still do have some um um placeholders for any new um non-public school placements that we may have or any other placements that may come up between now the end of the year we do still have a few placeholders for it so we haven't completely wiped out the budget but reduced what we feel

087we um down to the point where we feel it's it'll get us through the end of the year um again we have some sight donations coming in in both our books and supplies and our services and contracts based on those revenues that came in um we do have some of our expanded learning opportunities program that's the program that we partner with the uh County Office of Education for the the expanded days and summer programs um we H our agreement this year includes what the money that we're um pay to the county office includes now um the um breaks and summer program where before we had broken them out into additional funding pots but we've stream line that into one and we've been able to reduce what we expect to pay the county program for those

088um we did also add a new van that new van is going to ultimately save us more money in our service and contract because right now we're having to contract for a student for actually two students um that are being transported to a non-public placement in Sacramento um because we didn't have the van or the van driver it's um being outsourced so that something as soon as the new van comes in um and we um hire for that position we'll be able to actually capture the savings of that contract so longterm it will be a savings and then the regional program AIDS are our County programs for special education um we have students enrolled there and there are um a AIDs that come with those students often times or they need to add aids to

089those classrooms as they get more full so we have some additional costs there or actually a reduction in cost um this is a reminder of our the history of our stir and her rates um you know if we go back to 1314 before all of the increases started they were very stable at 8 and a quarter per for purs and 11 I'm sorry for stirs and 11 and a half percent for purs and they have since grown to 19 over 19% and 28% is where we're expecting to land in the 26 year and these are the associated costs that go with those um so we're anticipating 2627 to be over um to be like $6.3 million iners and Pur costs in our budget um multi-year so as we look towards the um 25 26 and

09026 27 years some of these I've already talked about as we go into um as we were reviewing those initial assumptions um some new things on here is we there isn't expected to be a new learning and Recovery um grant money but for now all we know is what we've received and that Grant will be fully spent by the end of this year along with the other art and music instructional material block grant so those two one-time funds are gone our budget does not include any additional um onetime money we do expect there there's talk about another there but we have not seeing any numbers how that's going to translate to districts so there isn't anything in our budget at this point so my goal is that I'd rather bring you good news rather than

091guess what it's going to be and then tell you um oops I was wrong so for now the budget is not built with any onetime monies and then as that comes in then we'll we'll build that into our budget um but there's not really much more to share with multi-year um we are continuing uh to include Tech replacement budget we're just lowering how much we can do and right now there's no changes to our staff however um we do anticipate there you know we we do have some buffer within our budget right now so and what I mean by that is our um we do have some sites that we're holding before we actually post for some position so we have I believe three or four positions in our budget that we have not posted

092for yet much like we did last year we'll wait until we see how enrollment comes through um particularly over summer is when we saw a lot of enrollment come in and then if we find the need to add staff we would we would do it then rather than now and we don't actually have the students to fill the classes so we do have the room um within our budget um but the goal is again to bring good news and say we did not need those and we can pull those out of the budget but it would just really depend on um our enrollment at that time I just want to compliment Lee on this particular point because this year as we were it was August I want to say when we started seeing like we're

093really tight at some of these School sites we're going to need to add Staffing and had we had she not left positions in the budget to account for students that might be arriving we would have been waiting until the next board meeting to have positions posted then you're posting for jobs and so we were able to identify the the issue and then just quickly respond to the need and and start the school year with every single class room having a teacher in it versus well we're working on it I'm subbing in a Kindergarten class until the you know until September or emergency board means so it's just very proactive and it's something I'm glad we we do in this District um we do have some positions that are funded currently with one-time funding that are

094going to shift to the general fund um the psychologist is one that's going to continue we um previously the unfortunate thing and fortunate thing I guess we we should say it in a positive light is when we added our additional psychologist um we have since had the need to have one of them go out on leave for various reasons well various reasons there's been um parental leave with one of them one year and then another with another year um so it has left our staffing a little bit tight but we haven't really had the opportunity to really enjoy the fruits of having five um full-time psychologists yet but the need has definitely risen within our special education um department where we need to have the five psychologists so for now we are leaving all five

095in the budget um additionally our sped tosa we are leaving in for one more year to provide additional support for our like forest team um right now she's in supporting the SDC class and with the goal that she's going to get in there she's going to um really understand the SDC program that's on that site and be able to provide support to the new teacher that comes in there and provide support to the entire team as we build up our interventions and um PB there on that site um we also are maintaining our garden um our district Garden coordinator um ongoing it's been such a positive ad to all of our sites and just within the the positive responses that we've had from the board with each of her presentations uh We've maintained that in

096our District budget um and um while right now we're still looking at cash flow to be expected to have deferrals um right now I'm only hearing still only about the one deferral in June so I'm not hearing that there's going to be a lot of deferrals next year but that's still waiting to be seen oh and we are I missed we're also um maintaining our um support secretary through 2526 um she's primarily taking the lead with all of our educator Effectiveness um the travel all of the documenting and ensuring that every um professional development is tracked in the way that we need to report back to the state so that's a big piece of that added time this is a look at our multi-year this is looking at um the total budgets for both unrestricted

097and restricted um and then this is a look at our ending fund balances just to demonstrate that out into that 2627 year we are still able to maintain our um 10% Reserve in 25 in 26 27 so we still are meeting all of our needs in the out years we are I do want to go back though and look at um that net incre that um net increase decrease on line e I do want to call out we are deficit spending and we are deficit spending quite a bit so when you look at our reserves while we are able to meet um we um are pulling from our reserves we do have a plan that really involves um looking at how we can better support our sites with um PBIS and a PBIS facilitators we're

098looking at some grants in order to support that with the goal being that if we can provide a little bit more proactive support at all of our sites have the PBI as facilitators along with our counselors and behaviorists really providing um some better um or continued tier one tier 2 support it's going to prevent the tier three that is really hitting our budget um we are contributing about five 5.1 million to our special education um program and and are with we have a goal of really reducing that um by putting in all of these preventative um tier one and tier two supports and the closer and the better we get at that then the better that our our program our special education program will feel and it will kind of loosen how tight they feel
