Do we have any public comments? That will be okay. Okie dokie. Um down to business. um consider approval of JBP 202526 fiscal year budget um salary schedules and superintendent contract action. Madame President, members of the board, the first part I'd

002like uh our uh director of finance and operations to give a summary and you have a copy of our proposed budget for next year. Go ahead, Miss Andy. Okay. So, um we made it. We're at the the tail end. So, um what I've presented to you all is um our operational, our impact aid, and then any of the grants that we already received an award for. And so, all of that has been budgeted. Um of course, you're going to see the majority of our budget is in our salaries and our benefits. And the functions 1 uh 21 and 22. So that's what the state is going to look for to see that a majority of our expenditures are and the direct instruction and the support services for our students and we have met that is

003where the majority of our budget is. Um of course then we have our fixed cost which is um our insurance or risk insurance um utilities maintenance structural materials supplies and materials for the classrooms and um uh support. So, you know, all of the different functions beyond function 22. Do you all have any questions for me? Questions? I feel that I I hope I prepared you guys up to this part on all of the things that were up and coming and you know, our SG, the unit value increase. Um so I'm very pleased with with our budget and I am requesting that the board approve our um proposed budget for fiscal year 2526 pending any changes from pen. And by that I mean as grants start to come in and applications are open I will be

004having to enter in all of the information as those come along. And I can only say that our proposed budget will address our first year of our strategic plan. Yes, I'm sorry. I should have mentioned that. So, we did work collaboratively to ensure that we're hitting all of the target and what yesterday we did have our um consultation. Uh we've sent out an invitation last week and we did our uh stakeholders consultation yesterday. Um, we have a representative, a parent, a tribal representative, special education, community member, prek and administration over there. It would mean we presented the breakdown. We presented u the changes especially with the increases in um inev Make a motion that we approve. [Music] Okay. Voice Kathy. Peter. [Music] So this all goes under the budget, right? So, yes, madame president, members

005of the board, um pending continued negotiation with our um collective bargaining unit, we are proposing this afternoon a salary schedule and that can uh that can be amended as soon as uh we have an agreed upon uh CDA agreement. So, but Miss Randy, could you explain our salary schedule? So right now all our salary schedules are in line with the mandates um passed out by the state. So um beginning year levels for level one zero years experience um 55,000 level two 65,000 level three 75,000 and then that's two no years of experience on the teacher salary schedules and all of their salary schedules as um laid out in house bill 2 are showing with a 4% rate. So we have met all of the requirements um asked by by the the state And we ask

006for the board to approve it um with possible amendments later on when the when the district agreed with uh has an agreement with the CDA on the salary schedule. If there are changes, if there's any changes, I'll make a motion to approve the public school 2025 2026 pending any changes that are necessary. [Music] Peter, Kathy, and I will approve. Um going down to contracted contract at this point in time I believe uh it will just be a a motion to approve the amended contract as discussed during second session and I will approve Going on to consent agenda, approve budget adjustments in cash. Um, if I could um so I know we didn't have a um budget report. So I I just want to explain um the request on the consent agenda. So we did receive

007a couple bars that were needing to put in as soon as possible and that was also to assist us with um our proposed budget. So, we did receive an increase to our SEG and so getting that into the budget as soon as possible um is definitely needed as well as I believe this is the first time I've had to bring it to you all a permanent cash transfer and so I just want to explain this a little bit. So my request is from the board and then will also have to be sent to PED is I am requesting to transfer um $294 from our operational account to um a um a fund that has ended. It was our student health base center. Um, and what occurred with that is during our audit and how the

008head likes us to come up to our cash balance is it's a very specific equation. So, it's cash on hand um plus or minus cash and cash equivalents less payroll liabilities. Within this equation, it overstated our true cash. So, at the end of the day, I had to budget in this additional $294 and it was overspent and it it basically was called cost due to this um inflation on my true cash. So, we knew what our true cash was. However, because of this equation, it did essentially inflate a little bit. Yes. And so um that's modified approval which Freda and I are big fans of. Um so I am requesting that um you all approve this cash transfer and then again I would have to submit it to PE and then they would be the

009final approvers for that. We have a second voice. Thank you. You're all invited for we have our middle school um sports banquet this afternoon. you are not all of you cannot have a corum but yeah we do have our banquet today next week we will have our high school athletics banquet on Wednesday next week I think we can go it's just we can talk correct and I will be there so I will be there so um you just gather together right graduation is this Saturday 10:00 so we have uh assign not assigned we have reserved partying for our guests, for the for the board and for our uh for the for the graduates and their family as well as uh the the governors and the mayors of heavy spring and uh so there will be
