School Board Mtg. - May 27, 2025

001WELCOME, EVERYONE. BEFORE WE BEGIN I WANT TO MENTION WE HAD AN ELECTION LAST WEEK. WE HAVE SOME WINNERS. MR. BILLS, CONGRATULATIONS. THANK YOU, CHAIR. [ APPLAUSE ] DIRECTOR GUPTA IS NOT HERE, BUT SHE ALSO WAS REELECTED, SO CONGRATULATIONS TO HER. THANKS TO LENA WHO RAN A GREAT RACE AND BROUGHT A LOT OF SPIRITED DISCUSSION TO THE RACE AND ONE MORE. KATHERINE LUPTON IS IN THE AUDIENCE IS VICTORIOUS AS WELL AND THANKS TO CASEY ADLER WHO ALSO RAN, GREAT RACE. THANK YOU ALL. IT'S HARD WORK TO STEP UP AND RUN. SO I REALLY WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE PEOPLE THAT WILL PUT THEMSELVES OUT THERE. SO THANK YOU. WITH THAT WE WILL GO TO ITEM 2.1, DR. SCHIELE, LEARNING IN LAKE OSWEGO. THANK YOU, CHAIR WALLIN, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD. I HAVE VERY SPECIAL GUESTS. WE HAVE ABBY

002FROM HALL AND MASON. LET'S HEAR IT FOR OUR STUDENTS. [ APPLAUSE ] YOU MIGHT SEE A LOT OF SECONDS FROM US BECAUSE HAVING STUDENTS FROM HERE IS OUR FAVORITE PART. SO THIS MONTH WE'RE TALKING ABOUT MATH, WHICH IS MY FAVORITE SUBJECT, TOO. WE SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST AND WE'RE GOING TO START WITH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND MIDDLE SCHOOL AND THEN HIGH SCHOOL AND THEY'RE GOING TO TELL US ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCE IN MATH. HI. I'M ABBY. AND I'M RIVER. >> AND WE ARE FIFTH GRADERS AT HALINAN. AND WE ARE GOING TO TELL YOU ABOUT THE FIFTH GRADE MATH CURRICULUM. HEY, ABBY, WHAT DO WE USUALLY DO IN MATH? WE USUALLY START THE LESSON BY FINDING SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES ON THE SCREEN. WHAT DO WE DO NEXT? WELL, NEXT WE DO MATH QUESTIONS WITH OUR TEACHERS AND

003SOMETIMES WE GO ON BLACKBOARDS. OTHER TIMES WE DO PAGES AND AFTER THAT WE WORK INDEPENDENTLY ON MATH PAGES IN OUR BOOKS. NOW THAT WE KNOW WHAT WE DO IN MATH, WHAT IS IT LIKE IN A FIFTH GRADE MATH CLASSROOM? WELL, I KNOW IN MY CLASS IT'S USUALLY PEACEFUL AND CALM AND MOSTLY THE TEACHER THAT TALKS. IS IT QUIET THE ENTIRE TIME? WELL, NO. SOMETIMES THE TEACHER LETS US TALK AT OUR TABLE GROUPS ABOUT THE MATH QUESTION WE ARE WORKING ON. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT FIFTH GRADE MATH? OH, I THINK MY FAVORITE THING IS THE PRACTICE COMPREHENSION QUIZ ON THE COMPUTERS BEFORE WE DO OUR ACTUAL TEST. YEAH. I THINK I PREFER PRACTICING AND REVIEWING OUR MATH QUESTIONS ON THE WHITE BOARD. SO YOU MIGHT HAVE SEEN US DOING HAND SIGNS LIKE THIS, THIS,

004THIS, THIS AND FOR THIS. THESE ARE IMPORTANT IN MATH BECAUSE THEY ALLOW TO US TALK WITH EACH OTHER WHILE NOT ACTUALLY SAYING ANYTHING VERBALLY. AND THESE ARE SOME OF THE MEANINGS. YOU PUT YOUR FIST ON YOUR CHEST LIKE THIS. THEN IT MEANS THAT YOU ARE THINKING. AND ONCE YOU HAVE YOUR IDEA YOU CAN PUT A THUMB UP. AND IF YOU HAVE TWO STRATEGIES OR SOLUTIONS, YOU CAN PUT YOUR INDEX AND YOUR THUMB OUT. AND IF YOU AGREE WITH SOMEONE, YOU CAN DO THE AGREE SIGN. AND IF YOU DISAGREE WITH SOMEONE, YOU CAN DO THE DISAGREE SIGN. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO OUR PRESENTATION ABOUT OUR AMAZING MATH CURRICULUM FOR FIFTH GRADE. YOU HAVE BEEN A GREAT AUDIENCE. [ APPLAUSE ] I MEET WITH THE MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS AND SOMEONE SAYS SOMETHING AROUND THE GROUP, THEY

005STILL DO THIS. I'M PICKING UP ON WHAT THIS MEANS. I MUST BE AGREEING WITH SOMEONE. THAT'S SOMETHING YOU'LL BE ABLE TO USE NEXT YEAR AS WELL. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE ELEMENTARY STUDENTS? I THINK WE SHOULD PUT THAT IN THE BOARDROOM SO THAT WE CAN USE IT THERE. THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL. WE'LL HEAR FROM THE MIDDLE SCHOOL. HELLO, EVERYBODY. MY NAME IS SAM AND I'M CURRENTLY AN EIGHTH GRADER AT LOMS AND RIGHT NOW I'M TAKING GEOMETRY WITH MS. SCHIELE AND I HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN MATH LAST FOUR YEARS AT LOMS AND I'VE LOVED EVERY CLASS SO FAR AND I THINK THERE ARE THREE MAIN REASONS WHY MY EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN SO GREAT. FIRST OFF, THE MATH PROGRAM HAS ENCOURAGED DISCUSSION THROUGHOUT THE CLASSROOM AND FOCUSES ON PROBLEM SOLVING INSTEAD JUST

006GIVING US THE ANSWER. FOR EXAMPLE, MS. SCHIELE HAS US DO WHOLE CLASS DISCUSSIONS INSTEAD OF JUST GIVING US THE ANSWER AND THAT HELPS US RETAIN THE INFORMATION AND ACTUALLY LEARN IT IN A FUN WAY. NEXT, OUR TEACHERS STRONGLY ENCOURAGE US TO DO OUR BEST AND SET HIGH EXPECTATIONS FOR US. THROUGHOUT ALL FOUR YEARS WE'VE HAD HOMEWORK AND IT'S CHECKED BY THE TEACHERS AND THEY MAKE SURE WE'RE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR IT AND THE CLASSROOM SETTING REALLY REINFORCES FOCUS ON WITH STUDENTS AND I THINK THAT'S GREAT BECAUSE IT HELPS NOT ONLY ME, BUT OTHER STUDENTS LEARN AND REMEMBER THE CONTENT WE'RE BEING TAUGHT AND THEN FINALLY, THE FLEXIBILITY OF THE MATH PROGRAM TO OFFER KIDS OF ALL ABILITIES CURRICULUM THAT ARE THE RIGHT LEVEL FOR THEM IS VITALLY IMPORTANT. I MENTIONED BEING IN LOMS THE PAST FOUR

007YEARS AND THIS IS BECAUSE THE DISTRICT WAS ABLE TO PROVIDE ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE LMS COURSES WHILE STILL AT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. THIS FLEXIBILITY HAS OPENED OPPORTUNITIES FOR ME INTO MY FUTURE WHEREAS I CAN NOW TAKE MORE IN-DEPTH CLASS IN HIGH SCHOOL AND STAY CHALLENGED THROUGHOUT MY CAREER IN MATH. I JUST WANT TO END THIS SPEECH BY EXPRESSING MY GRATITUDE TO MY GREAT TEACHERS WHO HAVE ASSISTED ME THROUGHOUT MY YEARS AT LMS. SO THANK YOU TO MS. NELSON, MS. BEAN, MR. THOMPSON, AND MS. STEELE AND THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING A GREAT AUDIENCE. [ APPLAUSE ] QUESTIONS? I'M JUST CURIOUS, FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU FOR SHARING. YOU ARE IN GEOMETRY AS AN EIGHTH GRADER. YEAH. >> TYPICALLY A SOPHOMORE LEVEL CLASS. I'M JUST CURIOUS. ARE YOUR ASPIRATIONS IN MATH AND S.T.E.M. OR IS THIS

008JUST AN INTELLECTUAL CURIOSITY THAT YOU ENJOY, SO YOU EXCEL IN IT? HONESTLY, IT'S A BIT OF BOTH. IT'S FUN TO HAVE CHALLENGING CLASSES FOR ME AND THE FURTHER I CAN GET IN MATH, THE MORE CHALLENGING, WHICH IS GREAT, BUT ALSO I DO HOPE TO HAVE A CAREER IN LIKE BUSINESS OR ECONOMICS AND I THINK THAT MATH COULD HELP ME WITH THAT. AWESOME. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT, YEAH. I'M MASON. I'M A SENIOR AT THE HIGH SCHOOL AND I WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THE TRANSITIONING FOR ME FROM EIGHTH GRADE WHEN I WAS IN COVID ONLINE TAKING MRS. STEELE'S GEOMETRY CLASS INTO MY FRESHMAN YEAR, ADVANCED ALGEBRA CLASS AND KIND OF HOW I FELT PRETTY PROTECTED WHILE KIND OF I KNEW MY LEARNING HAD SUFFERED AND GOING BACK TO THE IN-PERSON CLASSROOM IN MATH AFTER A PRETTY

009FRACTURED YEAR AND A HALF OF LEARNING ONLINE IS REALLY DIFFICULT BECAUSE AS SAM SAID, I HAD BEEN ADVANCED IN THE PAST. I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY I TOOK HIGHER LEVEL CLASSES THAN SOME OF MY CLASSMATES AND KIND OF ACCELERATED AND OVER ONLINE SCHOOL IT KIND OF ALL CAME CRASHING DOWN. MY MATH SKILLS, I REALLY DIDN'T DO WELL IN GEOMETRY AND I KIND OF CAME INTO HIGH SCHOOL NINTH GRADE AND I WAS REALLY STRUGGLING A WHILE, BUT I APPRECIATED. IT WAS MS. BONI AT THE TIME. SHE REALLY HELPED ME KIND OF GET BACK ON MY FEET AND I WAS ABLE TO KIND OF CONQUER THOSE CHALLENGES, GET PAST ADVANCED ALGEBRA AND I DID END UP TAKING CALCULUS WHICH IS A GOOD SEGUE INTO MY NEXT POINT WHICH IS THE HIGH SCHOOL HAS SUCH A WIDE VARIETY OF

010MATH CLASSES. AS SAM WAS SAYING, THERE'S SUCH A WIDE VARIETY OF CLASSES THAT ALL SORTS OF KIDS OF DIFFERENT ABILITIES CAN TAKE. THERE'S LIKE INTEGRATED OR ADVANCED ALGEBRA OR AT STATISTICS WHICH A.P. STATISTICS. I'M MAJORING IN ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE, SO I DIDN'T CHOOSE TO TAKE CALCULUS 2. I DON'T KNOW IF I NEED THAT, BUT I WAS ABLE TO TAKE A.P. STATISTICS BECAUSE, ONE, THAT'S A COURSE I'M VERY PASSIONATE ABOUT. I THINK IT'S VERY APPLICABLE IN A WIDE VARIETY OF SETTINGS AND IT'S ALSO BEEN REALLY FUN. THIS YEAR WE DID A BARBIE BUNGEE TEST. WE TESTED HOW MANY RUBBER BANDS --WE DROPPED A BARBIE OFF THE SECOND STORY AND THEN SEE HOW MANY BANDS IT WOULD TAKE WITHOUT HITTING THE FLOOR AND IT WAS A LEAST SQUARES REGRESSION LINES HEAD TEST USING THE SLOPE OF HOW MANY

011RATE IT WAS FALLING FOR SECOND. IT WAS REALLY FUN, KIND OF THIS HANDS-ON LEARNING THAT ENCOURAGES KIND OF THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX AND GETTING SOME REALLY IN-DEPTH LEARNING ON THIS WIDE VARIETY OF TOPICS OVER THE FOUR YEARS I TAKE FROM ADVANCED ALGEBRA TO PRECAC AND NEW CALCULUS, NOT NECESSARILY A STEP BACKWARD, BUT KIND OF A DIFFERENT TAKE ON MATH WHICH I REALLY APPRECIATED HAVING. IT'S JUST BEEN A REALLY FUN MATH JOURNEY FOR ME AS A 13-YEAR LO STUDENT FROM OAK CREEK THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL. I'VE HAD A LOT OF OPPORTUNITIES TO KIND OF DEMONSTRATE MY LEARNING STYLE AND THE WAY THAT I LIKE TO LEARN AND REALLY GREAT COMMUNITY THAT I'VE ALWAYS HAD AND THE TEACHERS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SO HELPFUL FOR ME. IT'S JUST BEEN REALLY FUN LEARNING MATH AND I FEEL VERY PREPARED TO

012ENTER COLLEGE LEVEL COURSES AS I PREPARE FOR MY NEXT CHAPTER. THANK YOU. [ APPLAUSE ] QUESTIONS FOR MASON? RIVER, ARE YOU EXCITED TO LEARN ABOUT BARBIE MATH WHEN YOU GET TO HIGH SCHOOL? MIGHT BE DROPPING KENS OFF THE FLOOR. THANK YOU, ALL. NICE WORK. >> THANK YOU. [ APPLAUSE ] OKAY. WE WILL GO TO 3.0, COMMENTS FROM PATRONS. WE RECEIVED WRITTEN TESTIMONY FROM ONE PERSON REGARDING A.P. AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDIES AND WE HAVE TWO REQUESTS, PERSONAL TESTIMONY. FIRST WE HAVE BEN ADAMS. I APPRECIATE YOU GUYS LETTING ME SPEAK TODAY. I WANT TO BRING TO THE BOARD'S ATTENTION AN ISSUE THAT'S REAL CLOSE TO OUR FAMILY. THE CELL TOWER LOCATION AT LAKE RIDGE AT THE BASEBALL FIELD, I THINK THERE'S SOME THINGS THE BOARD SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THAT PROJECT THAT I THINK WERE MISSED WHEN IT WAS

013APPROVED, ONE, WHICH IS THAT THAT CELL TOWER CORRELATION IS 100 FEET FROM HISTORIC LANDMARK PROPERTY THAT MY FAMILY LIVES IN. WHEN WE REVIEWED THE PERMITTING PROCESS, THAT WASN'T SOMETHING THAT WAS CONSIDERED THERE. SO THERE'S CURRENTLY A STOP WORK ORDER ON THAT PROJECT BECAUSE IT DIDN'T GO THROUGH THE PROPER PERMITTING PROCESS. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT IS AN ISSUE THERE IS THERE'S AN FCC RULE SECTION 106 THAT REQUIRES THOSE TOWERS WHEN THEY HAVE IMPACT TO HISTORICAL PROPERTIES, THEY GO THROUGH A REVIEW PROCESS WHICH INCLUDES SOME PUBLIC COMMENT AND SHAREHOLDERS AND STAKEHOLDERS REVIEW THAT AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WASN'T DONE ARE THE. THAT TOWER IS ONE OF THE LOWEST, IF NOT THE LOWEST ON THE POLE, IN THE CITY AND IT'S AT THE SAME LEVEL AS THE BEDROOM OF MY FIVE CHILDREN, FIVE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL LITTLE KIDS.

014SO THERE'S A LOT OF CONCERNS ABOUT THE RF EXPOSURE THAT'S THERE. WE'VE SPOKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT THAT SAID IT WOULD BE PRETTY HAZARDOUS IF THAT WAS TURNED ON. IT'S ALSO THE SECOND TOWER THAT'S IN THAT LOCATION. THERE'S ANOTHER ONE 100 FEET AWAY. SO IT POSES A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT FROM A HISTORICAL STANDPOINT. IF YOU GO THROUGH THAT SECTION, IT TALKS ABOUT VISUAL IMPACT, PRESERVING HISTORICAL SITES. WHEN WE LOOK AT THE PERMITTING PROCESS, WHAT WAS USED THERE, IT SHOWS A LOT OF TREES WHEN THE GOLF COURSE WAS THERE, BUT THAT'S NOT THERE NOW AND WHEN THEY STARTED THAT PROJECT, NONE OF THAT VISUAL BLOCK WAS THERE. WE WEREN'T GIVEN ANY NOTICE THIS WAS HAPPENING. WE JUST ALL OF A SUDDEN SAW GUYS HANGING THIS CELL ARRAY BASICALLY 100 FEET FROM OUR HOME. SO WE'RE ASKING THE

015CITY DISSOLVE THIS PROJECT WITH THE THINGS THAT WE DISCUSSED TODAY. IN PAST WHEN WE REVIEW BOARD COMMENTARY AND TESTIMONY, THE SCHOOL BOARD'S TAKEN A LOT OF INTEREST IN WHAT THE NEIGHBORS SAY, HOW THESE ARE GOING TO IMPACT COMMUNITIES AROUND THEM AND YOU CAN IMAGINE OUR DISMAY WHEN WE JUST SEE THEM PUTTING IT UP THERE WITH NO NOTICE AND NOBODY TALKED TO US ABOUT IT OR THERE WAS NO NOTICE POSTED THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN AND IT BEING THE SECOND ONE 100 FEET AWAY. SO YOU CAN IMAGINE THE CONCERN THAT THAT CAUSES FOR OUR FAMILY. SO WE'RE ASKING THE CITY TO DISSOLVE THIS PROJECT WITH THE THINGS THAT WE'VE TALKED ABOUT. APPRECIATE YOU GUYS TAKING THAT UNDER CONSIDERATION. ANY QUESTIONS, I HAVE 17 SECONDS. WE HAVE COMMUNICATION. I APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU. NEXT WE HAVE ERNESTO

016CONSECA. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, EVERYONE. MY NAME IS ERNESTO CONSECA, THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER FOR HACIENDA CDC. WE ARE A DEVELOPER AND ALSO PROVIDE SERVICES AND WE ARE ABOUT TO START OUR FIRST PART IN THE COMMUNITY. WE HAVE HOUSING SERVICES AND SOME SUPPORT AND WE ARE HERE TO REQUEST A TAX EXEMPTION FOR OUR PROJECT. THE ACTUAL NUMBER WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE ASSESSOR'S OFFICE, CLACKAMAS COUNTY, BUT THE AMOUNT IS GOING TO BE AROUND $158,000 PER YEAR. THE INVESTMENT THAT WE'RE PLACING IN THIS PROJECT IS GOING TO BE ALMOST $32 MILLION ON AFFORDABLE HOUSING AS WELL AS SERVICES FOR YEARS AND YEARS TO COME. ONE OF THE THINGS WE DO AT HACIENDA IS WE ARE VERY COMMITTED TO THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. WE ARE NOT JUST IN PORTLAND. WE'RE IN PORTLAND, HILLSBORO, OREGON CITY AND IF

017YOU ALLOW US, WE'LL BE HERE IN YOUR COMMUNITY. WE WORK WITH EVERYONE. WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH THE CITY OF LAKE OSWEGO OBVIOUSLY NOT ONLY IN THE PERMITTING PROCESS, BUT ALSO REACHING OUT AND ENGAGING WITH THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND STAKEHOLDERS FOR US TO MAKE THE BEST PROJECT THAT WE CAN. THAT IS THE REQUEST I HAVE FOR ALL OF YOU TODAY AND I'M HOPING YOU CAN SUPPORT US TO MAKE THIS PROJECT BE EVEN MORE FEASIBLE. OUR COMMITMENT IS TO REINVEST EVERY SAVINGS THAT WE HAVE BACK INTO THE COMMUNITY AS WE SPEAK. WITH THAT SAID, WE HAVE A LOT OF TIME LEFT FOR YOU TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS. IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PROJECT, 55 UNITS. WE'RE EXPECTING TO HOUSE ABOUT 100 TO 150 PEOPLE ON THIS PROJECT AND I'M READY FOR ANY QUESTIONS. I KNOW THAT THERE IS A

018LOT OF QUESTIONS ON LOW INCOME HOUSING AND I DO BELIEVE HOUSING FOR ANY COMMUNITY'S IMPORTANT FOR ALL INCOME LEVELS. SO THAT'S THE REASON I'M HERE. WE DO HAVE THIS ON OUR AGENDA FOR LATER. SO WE HAVE QUESTIONS FOR YOU, WE'LL RELAY THEM THROUGH MR. KETZLER. EXCELLENT. THANKS SO MUCH. I APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU. >> WITH THAT WE WILL GO TO CONSENT AGENDA. I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO REMOVE 6.11 FROM THE AGENDA. OH, I SEE, YES. OKAY. RIGHT. BEFORE WE GET TO THAT, OKAY, SURE. WE CAN DO THAT BEFORE WE DO THE CONSENT AGENDA, YES. ITEM 6.1.1, LET'S REMOVE THAT BECAUSE WE STILL NEED SOME WORK TO DO ON THAT, SELF-EVALUATION. NOW WE'LL GO TO CONSENT AGENDA AND MOTION. MAKE A MOTION TO ACCEPT THE CONSENT AGENDA. THANK YOU. IS THERE A SECOND?

019I'LL SECOND. THANK YOU. ALL IN FAVOR, PLEASE SAY AYE. AYE. CONSENT AGENDA IS APPROVED. WE'LL GO TO ITEM 5.0, COMMENTS FROM STUDENT REPRESENTATIVES, DRISHTI AND JON. WE ARE GETTING NEARER AND NEARER TO THE END OF THE YEAR. A.P. SEASON IS OVER. NOW COMES FINALS AND WE ALL KNOW WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE. THE MAIN THING I WANTED TO TOUCH ON IS WE'VE ALMOST RECAPPED A YEAR OF THE NEW PHONE POLICY AMONGST BOTH HIGH SCHOOLS AND I THINK WE HAVE PRETTY MUCH SET IN STONE THE KIND OF NEW CULTURE REALLY INTERACTING WITH YOUR PEERS IN THE HALLWAY, DON'T WANT TO BE ON YOUR DEVICE DURING BREAKS, DURING LUNCH, ANYTIME YOU'RE NOT ACTIVELY LEARNING. I THINK WE'VE KIND OF CREATED THAT CULTURE. SOME KIDS WILL SNEAK THEIR PHONES HERE AND THERE. I SEE IT EVEN. LOOKING OUT YOU

020SEE IT. YES. BUT MOST OF THE TIME KIDS ARE INTERACTING WITH EACH OTHER EVEN IN SITUATIONS WHERE THEY COULD BE ON THEIR PHONES AND I DON'T THINK I WOULD HAVE SEEN THAT LAST YEAR. SO I THINK WE'VE MADE A VERY, VERY SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT WITH THE NEW PHONE POLICY THIS YEAR. I THINK WE SHOULD CONTINUE IT NEXT YEAR, DEFINITELY. THAT'S GOOD THAT IT WASN'T ON THE TABLE. RIGHT. >> THANK YOU. I'M NOT SURE IF I HAVE MORE TO ADD TO THAT, BUT I DO AGREE WITH JON. IT'S THE SAME AT LAKE RIDGE AS WELL ABOUT THE PHONE POLICY AND I DON'T THINK THERE'S OTHER NEWS TO ADD FOR THE STUDENTS. THANK YOU, BOTH. >> I THINK THAT'S GREAT. THANKS FOR SHARING THAT, JON. EVERYBODY'S AWARE THAT THE STATE HAS FAILED TO LEGISLATE ON THIS ISSUE. SO

021YET AGAIN I THINK WE ARE VERY FORTUNATE THAT WE DID NOT WAIT AND MADE THE DECISION AND IT HAS PROVED TO BE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON MOST ALL ACCOUNTS. THANKS FOR SHARING THAT. WE DIDN'T HAVE TO BUY -- AND WE DIDN'T SPEND A DIME, COUPLE POSTERS. IT WASN'T MUCH. AGAIN, A MODEL FOR WHAT CAN WORK. I DO THINK LIKE AS TIME GOES ON AND STUDENTS ARE COMING INTO THE DISTRICT AS NEW STUDENTS AND THEY JUST KEEP GOING, I MEAN IT'S NEW THIS YEAR. SO IT'S NOT TRAINED INTO OUR HEADS, BUT AS IT STAYS, IT WILL BE MORE EFFECTIVE. WITH THE FAILURE OF THE LEGISLATURE THIS TIME AROUND, HOPEFULLY WE CAN BE SORT OF A SHINING EXAMPLE. WE ALREADY WERE. WE WERE, BUT EVEN MORE SO NOW, YOU KNOW, EVEN MORE SO NOW A SHINING EXAMPLE,

022HOPEFULLY PUT MORE PRESSURE TO DO THE RIGHT THING NEXT TIME OR WHEN WE CAN. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YOU ARE BOTH HERE. WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF MEETINGS WITH YOU TWO, GOT TWO MORE? TWO MORE. MAKE THE MOST OF EVERY ONE. WE'LL GO ON TO ITEM 6.1, SUPERINTENDENT'S UPDATE. CHAIR WALLIN, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, I DO WANT TO SAY I LOVE WHEN THE KIDS COME. IT TOTALLY CHANGES EVERYTHING ABOUT ME. I'M REALLY HAPPY ABOUT THAT. SO FIRST I WANT TO SHARE WHAT WE KNOW AND HOW WE'RE RESPONDING TO THE UNINTENDED LOCKDOWN INCIDENT THAT OCCURRED AT LAKE RIDGE MIDDLE SCHOOL TUESDAY, MAY 13th. ALTHOUGH THE LOCKDOWN MESSAGE WAS TRIGGERED ACCIDENTALLY AND THERE WAS AN ACTUAL THREAT, THE FEAR AND DISTRESS EXPERIENCED ON THE CAMPUS WAS VERY REAL FOR OUR STUDENTS AND FOR OUR STAFF AND FOR THE

023PARENTS WHO WENT THERE BUT DIDN'T HEAR ABOUT IT AND I WANT TO THANK OUR STUDENTS, STAFF, AND ALL THE PARENTS FOR SPEAKING UP, HOLDING US ACCOUNTABLE AND URGING US TO REFLECT AND IMPROVE OUR PRACTICES. I WANT TO WALK EVERYONE THROUGH WHAT HAPPENED AND HOW WE'RE RESPONDING. AT 12:25 P.M. THE LUNCH BELL RANG, DING. THE STUDENTS BEGAN TRANSITIONING TO LUNCH OR THEIR NEXT CLASS. AT 12:26 THE PRERECORDED ANNOUNCEMENT PLAYED OVER THE INTERCOM AND IT SAYS, "LOCKDOWN, LIGHTS, LOCKS, OUT OF SIGHT. LOCKDOWN, LIGHTS, LOCKS, OUT OF SIGHT," AND IT PLAYED TWO TIMES. AT 12:28, SO TWO MINUTES LATER, THE STAFF MADE THE FIRST OF SEVERAL AMENDMENTS CLARIFYING IT WAS A FALSE ALARM. THE ANNOUNCEMENT WAS UNINTENDED. WHAT HAPPENED WAS A STUDENT ACTUALLY ACTIVATED IT BY KNOCKING THEIR BACKPACK ON THE FRONT OFFICE PHONE AND THAT'S WHAT TRIGGERED

024THE PRERECORDED MESSAGE. IT TOOK A COUPLE MINUTES FOR STAFF TO IDENTIFY WHAT HAPPENED IN THE QUICKNESS OF IT AND DURING WHICH TIME MANY OF THE HALLWAYS BELIEVED THEY WERE FACING THIS REAL EMERGENCY AS THE NOISE IS GOING OFF AND AS WE TRAIN PEOPLE TO DO. BECAUSE THIS OCCURRED DURING A PASSING PERIOD, SOME OF THE STUDENTS WERE IN THE COMMON AREAS LIKE THE CAFETERIA, HALL, BATHROOM, THEATER STAGE AND SOME COULDN'T REACH A CLASSROOM BEFORE THE DOORS WERE LOCKED AND OTHERS HID WHEREVER THEY COULD. SO COMMUNICATION WAS MORE DIFFICULT IN THESE SPACES, ESPECIALLY IN THE CAFETERIA WHERE THE INTERCOM WAS NOT AUDIBLE TO EVERYONE. SO IT'S LOUDER IN THE CAFETERIA, SO THEY COULDN'T ACTUALLY HEAR. THAT WAS ONE OF OUR LESSONS. TEACHERS FOLLOWED OUR ESTABLISHED LOCKDOWN PROTOCOL, SWEEPING THE HALLWAY AND LOCKING THEIR CLASSROOM DOOR AND NOT

025REOPENING THEM. THESE ACTIONS ARE MEANT TO PROTECT STUDENTS AND STAFF, BUT WE RECOGNIZE HOW ISOLATING AND FRIGHTENING THAT WOULD BE TO BE ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE LOCK AND NOT KNOWING IT WAS NOT REAL. SO THAT FEAR IS SOMETHING WE TAKE VERY SERIOUSLY. IN THE AFTERMATH WE RECEIVED VALID, VERY VALID, AND CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK FROM MANY PEOPLE AND WHILE SCHOOL STAFF RESPONDED QUICKLY TO RESTORE CALM ON THE CAMPUS, OUR INITIAL MESSAGE TO FAMILIES DID NOT GO OUT FOR OVER AN HOUR AFTER THE INCIDENT. SO THAT DELAY ADDED TO FAMILIES' CONFUSION AND CONCERN AND WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT NEEDS TO BE FASTER. HERE'S WHAT WE'VE DONE AND ARE CONTINUING TO DO. THE FIRST THING IS THE INCIDENT REVIEW. WE WORKED WITH LPD AND IMMEDIATELY LAUNCHED A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW, INCLUDING INTERVIEWING STAFF, STUDENTS, FAMILIES. WE REVIEWED ALL THE VIDEO

026FOOTAGE AND TECHNICAL DIAGNOSTIC WAS DONE ON OUR INTERCOM SYSTEM AS WELL AS THE PHONE THAT WAS BUMPED WITH THE BACKPACK. WE RETRAINED ALL THE LMS STAFF SO THAT THEY RECEIVED ADDITIONAL LOCKDOWN PROCEDURES ON WHAT TO DO, ESPECIALLY DURING PASSING PERIODS AND UNSTRUCTURED TIME AND WE ALSO PUT IN MEASURES TO MAKE SURE THERE WAS CLEAR LEADERSHIP AND COMMAND WHEN THESE THINGS HAPPEN. UNFORTUNATELY, DURING THIS INCIDENT MANY OF US WERE ACTUALLY AT THE A.I. CONFERENCE IN NORTH PORTLAND, INCLUDING THE PRINCIPAL. THERE HAS TO BE A VERY CLEAR PROTOCOL FOR WHAT TO DO WHEN HE OR SHE IS NOT IN THE BUILDING. STUDENT SUPPORT, WE HAD ADVISORY CLASSES HOLD DEBRIEFS TO HELP STUDENTS PROCESS THE EVENT AND WHILE WE INTENDED TO CREATE SUPPORTIVE SPACES, WE KNOW THAT EXPERIENCE WAS UNEVEN ACROSS ALL CLASSROOMS, ALWAYS HARD WHEN YOU HAVE

027A DIFFERENT TEACHER IN EVERY SINGLE BUILDING, EVERY SINGLE ROOM, BUT WE ARE WORKING WITH OUR TRAUMA-INFORMED COUNSELORS TO STRENGTHEN THAT SUPPORT MOVING FORWARD MAKING SURE IF SOMEONE IS NOT COMFORTABLE LEADING THAT KIND OF DISCUSSION, THAT THERE IS SOMEONE IN THE BUILDING TO LEAD THAT FOR THEM. TECHNICAL FIXES, WE INVESTIGATED THE TRIGGER MECHANISM ON THE FRONT OF THE PHONE AND CHECKING THE SPEAKER VOLUME AND INTERCOM FUNCTION THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE BUILDING TO ENSURE EVERYONE COULD HEAR ANNOUNCEMENTS EVEN IN VERY LOUD AREAS DURING VERY LOUD PERIODS OF TIME LIKE LUNCH. DISTRICT-WIDE RESPONSE, THIS INCIDENT IS ALL SYSTEM WIDESPREAD, SO WE'RE MAKING SURE ALL OF OUR SCHOOLS ARE REVIEWING THE SAFETY PROTOCOLS, EMPHASIZING LIKE NONSTRUCTURED TIME LIKE WHAT DO STUDENTS DO AT LUNCH AND PASSING PERIOD AND WHAT DOES STAFF ALSO DO AND HAVING MORE SCENARIO-BASED DRILLS SO THAT

028KIDS DO KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE WHEN THOSE THINGS HAPPEN DURING PASSING TIMES. LASTLY, THE COMMUNICATION URGENCY, WE'RE TRAINING ADDITIONAL STAFF MEMBERS TO WORK ON OUR MASS COMMUNICATION. MARY KAY CANNOT BE THE ONLY ONE WHO SENDS OUT THOSE MESSAGES. WHETHER OR NOT ALARMS OR FALSE OR REAL, OUR GOAL IS TO LET FAMILIES KNOW WITHIN MINUTES WITH THE MOST ACCURATE INFORMATION AT THE TIME. SOMETIMES THAT INFORMATION WILL BE WE DON'T HAVE ANY INFORMATION AT THIS TIME, BUT WE WILL GIVE IT TO YOU SOON. IN THAT CASE THE INITIAL MESSAGE WAS DELAYED AND FACULTY WAS TRYING TO DEESCALATE ALL OF THE STUDENTS AND STAFF, BUT AT THE SAME TIME THERE WASN'T ANYONE WHO WAS IN CHARGE OF THE COMMUNICATION PART. THAT LACK OF COMMUNICATION REALLY INCREASED ANXIETY FOR FAMILIES AT HOME AND DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS FALSE

029AND DIDN'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED. THAT'S SOMETHING WE WANT TO PREVENT IN THE FUTURE. OBVIOUSLY OUR GOAL IS NOT JUST TO MOVE ON. WE ARE LEARNING, GROWING, IMPROVING AND THANK GOD THIS WAS NOT A REAL EMERGENCY SO WE COULD LEARN ALL THESE LESSONS DURING THIS TIME. IT REALLY DOES UNDERSCORE THAT CRITICAL IMPORTANCE OF STRONG SYSTEMS, TIMELY COMMUNICATION, AND COMPASSIONATE CARE FOR ALL OUR STUDENTS AND STAFF AND WE REALLY ARE COMMITTED TO MAKING SURE PEOPLE FEEL SAFE AND SUPPORTED AND PROTECTED IN SCHOOL BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER, BUT KNOWING THAT SOMETIMES THESE EMERGENCIES DO HAPPEN DURING TIMES WHEN IT'S NOT ONE TEACHER AND 25 KIDS TO COUNT AND WE HAVE TO BE PREPARED BECAUSE UNFORTUNATELY, EMERGENCIES DON'T USUALLY HAPPEN WHEN WE'RE ALL NICELY TUCKED AWAY IN OUR CLASSROOMS. THAT'S WHERE WE ARE. WE'RE CONTINUING TO

030WORK WITH THE POLICE ON MAKING SURE THAT WE ARE PREPARED AND NOT ONLY AT LAKE RIDGE MIDDLE SCHOOL, BUT AT ALL OF OUR SCHOOLS. QUESTIONS? YOU SAID YOU GUYS WORKED WITH LMS IN THE AFTERMATH TO COME UP WITH PROTOCOLS FOR WHAT TO DO DURING THE PASSING PERIODS. ARE WE DOING THAT WITH ALL THE SCHOOLS? YES. YOU SAID THAT PROBABLY. >> THAT'S OKAY. ALL THE SCHOOLS ARE WORKING ON THAT EXACT SAME PROTOCOL SO THEIR STUDENTS CAN BE TRAINED IN WHAT TO DO, SAME THING IF IT'S PASSING PERIOD OR LUNCH. THANK YOU. >> YUP. MOVING ON TO MORE FUN THINGS TO TALK ABOUT, OUR NEW ARTWORK IN THE BOARDROOM IS FROM THE LOVELY RIVER GROVE ELEMENTARY STUDENTS. WE ALWAYS LOVE TO HAVE THESE, THE CHERRY BLOSSOMS, WHICH ARE NOW NOT AS BEAUTIFUL OUTSIDE, BUT WE GET TO

031KEEP THEM HERE IN THE BOARDROOM AND THEN WE HAVE OUR WORK OVER HERE, RABBITS AND EGGS. IT IS VERY FUNNY. WE ALSO HAVE ARTWORK DOWN THE HALLWAY. IT'S SPECIAL FOR US WHO WORK HERE BECAUSE THIS BUILDING IS KIND OF DRAB AND UGLY. SO IT'S NICE TO HAVE SOME BRIGHT ARTWORK OF OUR STUDENTS AND OUR HALLWAYS THAT WE CAN REMEMBER WHAT WE'RE DOING HERE. SO WE REALLY LOVE THAT. BIG ROTARY LOBSTER FEED, WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE GETS THEIR TICKETS, JUNE 14th AT 5:00 AT THE LAKEWOOD CENTER ARTS. THIS IS A HUGE FUNDRAISER FOR NOT ONLY LAKEWOOD, BUT ALSO THE ROTARY, THEIR ONE AND ONLY FUNDRAISER. PLEASE ATTEND THAT, IF YOU CAN. LAST SUNDAY, NOT THIS LAST SUNDAY, BUT THE SUNDAY BEFORE THAT, WE HAD OUR HPR EVENT WHICH WAS AMAZING, HUGE KUDOS TO CONNIE IN

032OUR OFFICE FOR THE KEYNOTE ADDRESS. SHE DID FANTASTIC AND THERE WERE SO MANY GREAT PERFORMANCES AND STUDENTS AND IT WAS A REALLY FUN EVENT. IF YOU MISSED IT THIS YEAR, PLEASE TRY TO GO NEXT YEAR. FOOD FRENZY AT LAKE RIDGE HIGH SCHOOL, SO MUCH FUN. IT WAS AMAZING. OUR ADVANCED CULINARY STUDENTS WERE ABLE TO CREATE BUSINESS PLANS AND HAVE THEIR OWN -- THEY CREATED AND PREPARED THEIR OWN FOOD TO SELL AT THE EVENT AND IT WAS A HUGE HIT. THERE WAS A TON OF PEOPLE. SOME OF THE FOOD SOLD OUT REALLY FAST. OUR KIDS DID A GREAT JOB. IT WAS FUN TO WATCH THEM. SPRING CONCERTS, WE HAVE SO MANY CONCERTS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF OUR PERFORMERS AND ARTISTS AS WE CLOSE OUT THE YEAR WITH THE BAND AND CHOIR AND ORCHESTRA

033AND A.P. ART AND CERAMIC SHOWCASES AND PLUS LO HIGH SCHOOL JUST WON STATE AND CHOIR. SO THAT'S SUPER BIG. THAT'S WHAT I FORGOT TO MENTION. I FORGOT SOMETHING. IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO WIN STATE AND BAND OR CHOIR AND LO HIGH DID IT. WE'RE SO PROUD OF ALL THEIR HARD WORK. ANYBODY WHO HAS HEARD THEM, THEY ARE LIGHTS OUT, REALLY STRONG. AT REGISTRATION, WE'RE REALLY EXCITED TO CONTINUING OFFERING OUR BEFORE STRINGS PROGRAM FOR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL FOR FOURTH AND FIFTH GRADERS. WE HAVE THE BEGINNING STRINGS PROGRAM, WHICH IS USUALLY FOR FOURTH GRADERS, BUT SOME FIFTH GRADERS ARE IN IT AND THAT'S WITH STUDENTS WHO HAVE NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE WITH THE STRINGS INSTRUMENT. SO THEY CAN CHOOSE TO DO VIOLIN, VIOLA OR CELLO AND THAT'S FOUR DAYS A WEEK BEFORE SCHOOL AND ELEMENTARY ORCHESTRA IS OUR FIFTH GRADERS

034OR IF YOU'RE IN FOURTH GRADE AND HAVE HAD EXPERIENCE, THEY CAN PUT YOU IN THE ADVANCED CLASS, SAME THINGS, BUT THEY PLAY VIOLIN, VIOLA OR CELLO AND IT MEETS AT THE SAME TIME AS BEGINNING STRINGS AND WE PROVIDE TRANSPORTATION OVER TO THEIR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. REGISTER TODAY AT THE DISTRICT WEBSITE AND COMMUNITY SCHOOLS. WE HEARD THE LORAK IS GOING TO OFFICIALLY OPEN JUNE 9th. THE SCHOOL DISTRICT POOL THAT'S RIGHT OVER HERE WILL CLOSE AT THE END OF THE DAY ON JUNE 8th. REGARDLESS BECAUSE WE NEED TO START THIS CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS. AS YOU REMEMBER, YOU ALL PASSED A COUPLE WEEKS AGO TO START GOING ON THAT AND WE DO NOT WANT TO HAVE TO PAY MORE MONEY TO THE CONTRACTOR WHO IS READY TO GO. WE'LL CLOSE ON THE 8th. HOPEFULLY IT WILL BE AN EASY TRANSITION.

035CELEBRATIONS, WE HAVE TONS GOING ON, BIG ONES OBVIOUSLY FIFTH GRADE AND EIGHTH GRADE AND HAVING THAT LAST WEEK OF SCHOOL, BUT OUR HUGE STUDENT HIGHLIGHT IS OUR GRADUATIONS. REMEMBER, THIS IS 13 YEARS -- I'M GOING TO START CRYING. IT'S 13 YEARS OF SCHOOL AND THERE'S SO MUCH WORK AND LOVE THAT GOES INTO THESE STUDENTS, JUST AS SOMEBODY WHO WAS A HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL AND YOU LOOK OUT AT ALL THOSE PARENTS AND ALL THE WORK EVERYBODY HAS DONE TO GET THEM TO THAT MOMENT IN TIME, IT'S AMAZING. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF OUR GRADUATES! WE HAVE LAKE RIDGE HIGH SCHOOL NEXT THURSDAY AT 4:00 AT ROLLING HILLS AND WE HAVE LO HIGH THE NEXT DAY, SO THE FRIDAY AND THAT'S AT THE PORTLAND PAVILION IN DOWNTOWN PORTLAND. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE GRADUATES AND FAMILY AND STAFF THAT'S

036HELPED THEM ALONG THE WAY. MANY OF THEIR FAMILIES ARE AT THIS TABLE RIGHT NOW. WE HAVE THREE BOARD MEMBERS WITH GRADUATING STUDENTS AND I ALSO HAVE A GRADUATING SENIOR. IT'S A LOT OF WORK, AS WE KNOW, PARENTING KIDS. HOW MANY GRADUATES IN EACH CLASS? I DON'T HAVE EXACT NUMBER. IT'S RIGHT OVER 300, 320 FOR ONE OF THEM AND 318 THE OTHER. ARE. OVER 600 KIDS. YEAH. IT'S A LOT OF CHILDREN CROSSING THAT STAGE AND ALL OF OUR BOARD MEMBERS ARE THERE TO BE ABLE TO SHAKE THEIR HANDS. OF COURSE, SARAH HOWELL, PAST BOARD MEMBER, HAS A GRADUATING SENIOR. WE ALWAYS INVITE PAST BOARD MEMBERS TO JOIN US ON STAGE. IT'S THE ONLY THING THEY ACTUALLY GET AS BOARD MEMBERS. THERE'S NO PAY INVOLVED IN THIS JOB. THEY DO GET TO SHAKE A LOT OF SWEATY

037HANDS. IT'S TOTALLY WORTH IT BECAUSE IT'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT TO WATCH THEM GRADUATE. WE'LL HAVE TO HAVE FUTURE DIRECTOR LUPTON MAKE A NOTE FOR THE FUTURE BOARD. PUT IT IN THE ARCHIVES. YES. >> THAT'S A DIRECTOR HARTMAN TENURE. YOU'D BE SURPRISED HOW QUICKLY IT GOES. YOU'LL BLINK AND THEY'LL GRADUATE. THAT'S ALL I HAD. QUESTIONS? THANK YOU. OKAY. YOU'RE GOING TO GO NOW ON TO ITEM 6.2, LOHS AND LHS GREEN TEAM UPDATE WITH LOHS AND LHS STUDENTS. MAKE SURE YOUR MICS ARE ON WHEN YOU SPEAK. JUST HIT THE LITTLE BUTTON. THEY'RE ON. >> HI. WE ACTUALLY DON'T HAVE LOHS TODAY. WE HAVE LHS STUDENTS. EVERYONE HERE IS ON THE LOHS GREEN TEAM. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK TODAY. IF YOU COULD GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE, THANK YOU. THIS IS

038OUR MISSION STATEMENT, TO PROMOTE SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSCIOUSNESS IN LO HIGH SCHOOL AND THROUGHOUT EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, HANDS-ON EVENTS AND ACTIVISM. WE'VE BEEN AROUND SINCE 2019. WE WANTED TO THANK YOU GUYS FOR ADOPTING THE TEACHING AND PRACTICING SUSTAINABILITY GOAL WHEN YOU MADE THE CURRENT STRATEGIC PLAN. THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS WE'RE HERE TODAY, TO HELP ADVOCATE AND MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE SUSTAINABILITY IN THE NEXT STRATEGIC PLAN AND MAKE SURE THAT'S A CONTINUING GOAL FOR THE SCHOOL BOARD. YEAH. WE'RE JUST GOING TO BE PROBABLY GOING PAST THESE REAL FAST. WE GOT A LOT TO POINT IT OUT. WE'LL TRY TO POINT OUT SOME OF THE GREAT THINGS THAT HAVE COME OF THE STRATEGIC PLANS AND SOME OF THE STRATEGIES WITHIN SUSTAINABILITY IN THIS PLAN. SO THIS WAS ONE OF THEM, ESTABLISHING ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE. YEAH. AND SOME

039THINGS THAT WE'VE DONE THAT KIND OF ALIGN WITH THAT GOAL IS OUR CLOTHES BIN FUNDRAISER. WE WANT TO THANK MR. HOLMBALM. HE HELPED US MAKE THIS CONNECTION WITH OUR TEXTILE RECYCLING COMPANY TO GET THIS GREEN BIN ON OUR CAMPUS. WE HAVE A GRAPH OF HOW MUCH MONEY WE'VE MADE FROM IT ALREADY. SO IT'S A GREAT EXAMPLE HOW SUSTAINABILITY DOESN'T HAVE TO BE A COST. IT CAN ACTUALLY HELP US MAKE MONEY WHILE ALSO PROTECTING OUR ENVIRONMENT HERE. OUR CAP AND GOWN RECYCLING PROGRAM, THIS HAS ALSO MADE US A LOT OF MONEY. WE BUY --I MEAN WE TAKE OLD CAPS AND GOWNS FROM SENIORS AND RESELL THEM TO NEW SENIORS WHICH HELPS KEEP ALL THOSE TEXTILES OUT OF LANDFILLS AND MAKES US MORE MONEY FOR THE GREEN TEAM AND SUSTAINABILITY. YOU WANT TO DO THIS ONE? SORRY,

040EVERYONE. OUR STEWARDSHIP PROGRAM IS JUST SOMETHING THE GROUPS WE PARTNER WITH LIKE THE LAKE OSWEGO WATERSHED COUNCIL. WE DO LOTS OF THINGS LIKE IVY PULLS, THE BIOBLITZ EVENT WHICH WILL BE AT THE GREENHOUSE AREA IN THE SCHOOL HERE, LOTS OF FUN EVENTS LIKE THAT. WE CAN SKIP PAST THESE ONES. WE'RE POINTING OUT HOW DIFFERENT EVENTS WE'VE DONE HAVE FIT INTO THE STRATEGIES THAT ARE PART OF THIS GOAL WITHIN THE SUSTAINABILITY PLAN. WE WENT DOWN --FOR EDUCATION WE WENT TO FOREST HILLS FOR EARTH DAY, GOT TO LEAD SOME ELEMENTARY STUDENTS IN APPRECIATING NATURE AND THE HEALTH BENEFITS SPECIFICALLY OF BEING OUTSIDE. THAT WAS A GREAT EDUCATION OPPORTUNITY. WE GOT TO VISIT SALEM WHERE WE HELPED ADVOCATE FOR OUR CLIMATE EDUCATION BILL AT THE OREGON LEGISLATURE, SO THAT WAS REALLY EXCITING FOR ALL OF US. SOME EMERGING

041CLUBS THAT HAVE BRANCHED OFF FROM GREEN TEAM AND OTHER SUSTAINABILITY EFFORTS, OUR THREAD FORWARD GROUP. SOME OTHER CLUBS ARE FARM-TO-TABLE CLASS WHICH WE'RE REALLY GRATEFUL FOR AND THE LSN FAIR. WE'RE GETTING A LOT OF EFFORTS BRANCHING OFF FROM THE INITIAL EFFORT OF THE SUSTAINABILITY GOAL WHICH IS PART OF THE REASON WE THINK IT'S SO IMPORTANT. WE HAVE SEEN SOME OF THE RESULTS ALREADY. THIS IS A SURVEY WE DID ON SOME OF OUR STUDENTS FOR CLIMATE LITERACY. WE ONLY HAVE THREE QUESTIONS ON THERE. IT WAS MANY MORE QUESTIONS THAN THIS. IT JUST SHOWED A LARGE PORTION OF OUR STUDENT BODY IS PRETTY WELL VERSED IN CLIMATE LITERACY AND WHAT'S HAPPENING TO OUR PLANET NOWADAYS. HERE'S WHERE I COME IN. RECENTLY I WAS ELECTED AS OUR INAUGURAL SUSTAINABILITY LEADER FOR OUR ASSISTANT STUDENT BODY AND BASICALLY WHAT

042I DO IS I BASICALLY FOCUS ON SUSTAINABILITY AND BRINGING THAT INTO EVERYDAY SCHOOL LIFE. THOSE ARE SOME OF MY RESPONSIBILITIES. I THINK THE FUTURE IMPACTS MY ROLE CAN HAVE IS HIGHLIGHTING THE IMPORTANCE OF THE TOPIC. THAT SURVEY DID SHOW A MAJORITY OF THE STUDENTS DID UNDERSTAND SUSTAINABILITY THINGS, ACTUALLY THERE'S STILL MORE THAT CAN BE EDUCATED ON. THERE'S STILL 20% OF PEOPLE WHO CAN'T TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CERTAIN THINGS OR FOR ME, FOR EXAMPLE, I SOMETIMES STRUGGLE WHAT CAN ACTUALLY BE RECYCLED. IF I HAVE A CAN OR PAPER THAT HAS FOOD IN IT, WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO? I CONSIDER MYSELF HIGHLY LITERATE IN SUSTAINABILITY. I THINK CENTERING THOSE OPPORTUNITIES IN OUR SCHOOL WHERE WE SHOW VIDEOS AND HAVING SUSTAINABLE SEGMENTS OR HAVING MORE DAYS LIKE DURING LUNCH OR MORE EVENTS THAT JUST FOCUS ON

043THAT TOPIC WOULD BE GREAT FOR OUR SCHOOL BOARD --OR NOT SCHOOL BOARD, OUR HIGH SCHOOL AS WELL AS SUPERVISE FOR STUDENTS TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN OUR COMMUNITY. WHAT'S MOST IMPORTANT IS WHILE THESE ARE VERY STUDENT-RUN POSITIONS AND WHILE STUDENTS HAVE BEEN MAINLY THE ONES MAKING THE BIG IMPACTS, BUT STUDENTS ARE KIND OF TEMPORARY. AS YOU GUYS SAID, THERE'S 600 KIDS LEAVING THIS YEAR AND THE SIZE OF GREEN TEAM AND THE IMPORTANCE WE PUT ON SUSTAINABILITY REALLY DEPENDS ON THE KIDS, WHEREAS IN THIS NEW PLAN IT CAN BE MORE INSTILLED AND HOPEFULLY WITH THIS NEW ROLE IT'S MORE INSTILLED INTO JUST THE SCHOOL LIFE ITSELF. IT'S MORE OF JUST AN ESTABLISHED THING RATHER THAN THINGS THAT STUDENTS HAVE TO WORK REALLY HARD ON TO GET LITTLE AMOUNTS DONE. YEAH. I LOVE THE POINTS YOU MADE.

044I THINK ONE OF THE REASONS WE'RE DEFINITELY HERE TODAY IS TO ENCOURAGE INTEGRATED SUSTAINABILITY IN OUR SCHOOLS RATHER THAN IT BEING STUDENT EFFORT, SO THANK YOU FOR THAT. YEAH. THIS WAS ANOTHER BRANCH OF IT, THE BUILDING PRACTICES AND FACULTY OPERATIONS. SOME STUFF WE ARE HOPING TO DO SURROUNDING THIS, WE'VE ACTUALLY COME TO YOU GUYS WITH THIS BEFORE, A COMPOST SYSTEM FOR OUR SCHOOLS BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN A LITTLE SHAKY. WE CAME IN 2022 AND IT WAS KIND OF TURNED BACK ON THE STUDENTS AS LIKE FORM A SYSTEM YOURSELF AND WHILE WE DID HAVE LOTS OF GREAT STUDENT EFFORTS FOR THAT AND IT DID WORK FOR A LITTLE WHILE, BUT LIKE HENRY SAID, CYCLING STUDENTS AND CYCLING EFFORTS AND IT'S JUST TEMPORARY UNFORTUNATELY. IT'S NOT A RESILIENT PLAN THAT'S GOING TO LAST A LONG TIME. SO

045SOMETHING THAT WE'RE HOPING FOR MAYBE IN THE FUTURE IS A DISTRICT-WIDE INTEGRATED APPROACH THAT CAN HELP THIS BE A MORE PERMANENT SOLUTION FOR FOOD WASTE AT OUR SCHOOLS, YEAH. THIS IS EXACTLY OUR PROBLEM, YEAH. FOOD WASTE IS A LOT OF THE MISSIONS HERE AND COMPOSTING HASN'T HAPPENED IN A FULL DIRECT SYSTEM SINCE SPRING OF 2024. SO THERE'S NO REALLY STRUCTURE TO IT, WHICH IS THE SOLUTIONS THAT WE WANT TO TRY TO FIND, YEAH. SO THAT'S OUR CONCLUSION. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR LETTING US SPEAK HERE TODAY AND THANK YOU FOR ALL THE EFFORTS YOU GUYS HAVE PUT FOR SUSTAINABILITY IN THE SCHOOL. THANK YOU. ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE GREEN TEAM? THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE AND WHAT YOU'VE DONE. I LOVE THE ASB POSITION. DOES LAKE RIDGE HAVE THE SAME THING OR

046ARE YOU GUYS THE FIRST TO COME OUT OF THE GATE ON THIS BECAUSE I THINK IT'S BRILLIANT? I DON'T EXACTLY KNOW HOW LAKE RIDGE WORKS. YOU DON'T HAVE TO. THAT'S FINE. YOU DECIDED FOR THAT ROLE IN WHICH STUDENTS GET ELECTED TO THAT. YOU'VE MADE THAT BE A VALUE AT LO I THINK IS SO IMPORTANT. SO THANK YOU FOR BEING A LEADER IN THAT. IT MIGHT FEEL LIKE THAT STUDENT LED AND THAT'S A LOT ON YOUR SHOULDERS EXCEPT FOR THAT TRULY IS SYSTEM CHANGE AND THAT'S POLICY CHANGE WHERE MAGIC HAPPENS. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY OTHER SCHOOLS HAVE THAT ROLE IN THE STATE. THAT IS REALLY COOL. IF YOU GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO TALK ABOUT THAT IN TAKE LEADERSHIP SPACE IN THE STATE, YOU SHOULD BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S A REALLY IMPORTANT ROLE. SO I'D LOVE

047TO KEEP EXPLORING THAT AND SEE HOW WE CAN SHOWCASE THAT BECAUSE I THINK IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT. I ALSO WANT TO JUST CALL OUT AND IT'S NOT SO MUCH A QUESTION, BUT I WANT TO NOTE THAT I HEAR YOU. THE SYSTEM'S APPROACH TO COMPOSTING AND SOME OF THE INFRASTRUCTURE PIECES, NOT SO MUCH A HUMAN PIECE, BUT THE ACTUAL PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE THAT IF YOU BUILD IT, THEY WILL COME TYPE OF THING THAT I THINK I'M HEARING YOU SAY THAT I JUST CALL OUT TO THE BOARD ON WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE IN BOND CONVERSATIONS AS WE'RE GETTING READY FOR THE LAST BOND. THANKS, YOU GUYS. COOL WORK. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH. LIKE IT. WOULD LIKE TO COMMENT THAT GREEN TEAMS HAVE STARTED AND STOPPED A LOT OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, BUT IT IS YOUR GROUP AND

048IN THE LAST FEW YEARS GREEN TEAMS HAVE FINALLY HIT THE MARK WHERE THEY ARE CONTINUING AND GOING ON. SO SOMETIMES WHEN IT FEELS LIKE YOU'RE INTRODUCING SOMETHING AND YOU GO OH, WELL, THAT ONE DIDN'T FAIL, SO I NEED MORE HELP, IT TAKES THE RIGHT PERSON. YOU'RE GOING TO BE FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON AND RIGHT NOW YOU FOLKS ARE THE RIGHT PEOPLE AT THE RIGHT TIME. THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU'RE DOING BECAUSE YOU ARE BUILDING A PROGRAM THAT WILL LAST FOR DECADES TO COME. I THINK IT'S TAKEN HOLD. YEAH. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH. >> YEAH. I WOULD JUST TO REPEAT WHAT THE DIRECTOR SAID, I ALSO DO THINK TO HAVE SORT OF LONGER TERM PROJECTS, THEY GO ON FOR YEARS. YOU ALL ARE PARTICULARLY PASSIONATE ABOUT THE CLIMATE BILL, SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS

049THERE. I HEAR FROM THE SPONSOR THAT BILL IS MOVING ALONG. THAT'S FANTASTIC NEWS. IT'S GREAT TO HAVE THESE PASSIONATE THINGS YOU ALL ARE FOCUSED ON. YEAH, JUST HAVING LONGER TERM PROJECTS THAT CAN GO ON YEAR TO YEAR IS PART OF THE MISSION WOULD BE SUPER POWERFUL, GOOD WORK ON THAT. THANK YOU ALL. THANK YOU. >> HI. I'M A STUDENT FROM LAKE RIDGE AND I WANTED TO SAY WE DON'T HAVE A SUSTAINABILITY POSITION IN OUR ASB. WE HAVE PHILANTHROPY, BUT IT DOESN'T CONNECT WITH SUSTAINABILITY. I THINK IT WOULD BE COOL TO HAVE ONE. FANTASTIC. THANK YOU, ALL. [ APPLAUSE ] ALL RIGHT. WE'LL GO ON TO UPDATE FROM THE BOND ACCOUNTABILITY COMMITTEE. MR. HARRISON, I GUESS, AND MR. STUART KETZLER. HE'S IN CHARGE OF ME TONIGHT. CHAIR WALLIN, TOLD YOU HE WAS ALWAYS JOHNNY ON THE

050SPOT, NEVER MISSES ANYTHING. UNFORTUNATELY, HE HAD A SCHEDULE CONFLICT THAT AROSE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND WAS NOT ABLE TO BE HERE THIS AFTERNOON. HE ASKED ME TO SIT UP HERE WITH MICHAEL AND SUPERVISE HIM. YOU'RE GOING TO STEWARD HIM. OKAY. NEW VERB. >> WE BENEFIT GREATLY FROM OUR CITIZEN VOLUNTEERS THAT SERVE A BROAD RANGE OF COMMITTEES AND CERTAINLY OUR BOND ACCOUNTABILITY COMMITTEE WHICH HAS BEEN UP I BELIEVE FOR EIGHT YEARS NOW. IT DOES WORK FOR HELPING ENSURE THAT THE PROGRAMS THAT WE HAVE PASSED WITH TWO BONDS NOW, KEEPING OUR FINGERS CROSSED ON A THIRD, IT WILL STAY ON TRACK AND ON SCHEDULE AND ON BUDGET AND MR. HARRISON IS HERE TO PROVIDE AN UPDATE AS TO WHERE WE ARE CURRENTLY WITH OUR TWO PROGRAMS THAT ARE STILL ONGOING. PERFECT. GREAT INTRO, THANK YOU. I'M MICHAEL

051HARRISON, PARENT OF A FOURTH GRADER AT HALINAN, SO A FEW YEARS UNTIL GRADUATION, BUT I LOOK FORWARD TO IT. I WILL BE CRYING ALONG WITH YOU APPARENTLY. I'LL READ MY FIRST PARAGRAPH AND I'LL READ OFF THE PAPER. I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO ESTABLISH. THE BOND ACCOUNTABILITY COMMITTEE IS COMPRISED OF PARENTS, GUARDIANS, COMMUNITY MEMBERS. IT MONITORS PLANNING, PROGRESS OF THE DISTRICT'S CAPITAL LONG PROGRESS RELATIVE TO VOTER-APPROVED WORK SCOPE, SCHEDULE AND BUDGET OBJECTIVES, PROVIDES REGULAR REPORTS TO THE SCHOOL BOARDS. IT'S ONE OF THE MECHANISMS YOU ALL KNOW YOU PROVIDE FOR THE COMMUNITY TO STAY INFORMED WITH WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE DISTRICT AND ULTIMATELY BOND DOLLARS WE VOTED TO APPROVE THAT ARE SPENT ON OUR BEHALF. WE HOLD MEETINGS QUARTERLY. WE GET MONTHLY UPDATES FROM THE TEAM, SO SUPER REGULAR COMMUNICATION FROM THE TEAM. WHEN THERE IS MONTHLY

052UPDATES, THERE IS OFTENTIMES PEOPLE ASKING QUESTIONS BACK TO TONY AND DEBBIE AND THEY'RE ALWAYS GREAT, QUICK RESPONSES, VERY APPRECIATIVE OF THAT. I HAVE SAID IT PROBABLY THREE TIMES IN THE PAST. I'LL CONTINUE TO SAY IT PROBABLY INTO THE FUTURE, BUT I'M ALWAYS REALLY IMPRESSED WITH THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT TONY AND HIS TEAM ARE BALANCING. I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW IT ALL WORKS, HOW THEY'RE GETTING IT ALL DONE ON TIME AND UNDER BUDGET. SO ALWAYS SUPER VERY APPRECIATIVE OF THAT CHARTER THAT THEY HAVE AND THE WORK THEY'RE DOING IN HELPING US REBUILD OUR SCHOOLS AND MAKE SURE WE HAVE APPROPRIATE SETTING AND SCHOOLS FOR OUR KIDS, SO SUPER GOOD. I'LL HIT ON SOME OF THE MAJOR PROJECTS COMING UP OR THAT WERE EITHER COMPLETED RECENTLY OR IN FLIGHT. WE ALREADY HEARD FROM DR. SCHIELE ABOUT

053THE LOR AK LARGELY COMPLETE. WE'RE WAITING ON THE POOL CHEMICAL TO BE REBALANCED I THOUGHT I HEARD, BUT SUPER EXCITED TO GO AND SWIM THERE ON JUNE 9th APPARENTLY. HOLD MY BREATH. WAIT TILL THE 9th. AS LONG AS IT'S OPEN IN THE WINTER, MY SON HAS A PLACE TO SWIM. WE HAVE LOTS OF ENERGY TO BURN. IT'S STILL ON OUR LIST WERE PROJECTS BECAUSE IT'S TECHNICALLY IN THE RED BECAUSE OF THE DELAY IN OPENING. SO AS SOON AS THE CITY'S RESOLVED, THEIR BEHIND SCHEDULE ISSUES WITH THE BUILDER, THEN WE'LL BE ABLE TO REMOVE THAT PROJECT FROM US. OUR COMMITMENTS TO THAT ARE FULLY COMPLETE FROM A CONSTRUCTION PERSPECTIVE. THAT'S THE LAST OF THE 2017 CAPITAL BOND PROGRAM OUT THERE. I THINK FROM THE 2021 CAPITAL BOND PROGRAM LAKE OSWEGO MIDDLE SCHOOL, WE CAN ALL SEE

054IT COMING UP ACROSS THE STREET, SUPER EXCITED TO SEE THAT IN ANOTHER YEAR WHEN IT'S COMPLETE, BE ABLE TO GO TOUR AND SEE THAT. IT SOUNDS LIKE REALLY GOOD PROGRESS THERE. THERE'S A LOT OF STRUCTURAL WORK CONTINUING. IN THE MUSIC ROOMS THERE'S STEEL GOING UP ON THE NORTH WING. THERE'S INTERIOR WORK HAPPENING, ELECTRICAL, MECHANICAL, FRAMING. HVAC'S GOING IN, REALLY GOOD FROG. THEY'RE STARTING TO PICK OUT FURNITURE, SOUNDS KIND OF FUN, DO A LITTLE SHOPPING. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE PROJECT'S ON SCHEDULE AND THINGS ARE GOING AS EXPECTED WHICH I THINK IS REALLY GOOD NEWS THERE. RIVER GROVE COMPLETE NOW. I THINK THERE IS THE LAST LITTLE ITEM ON THERE, THE BATTERY BACKUP THAT'S BEEN ORDERED, JUST NEEDS TO BE INSTALLED. THEY'RE WORKING ON IMPROVING ACCESSIBILITY AS YOU GUYS HEARD IN THE LAST BOARD MEETING. WAS THAT

055THE LAST ONE WHEN WE HAD THE -- THE STAFF MEETING? YES. WHEN THEY BROUGHT THAT. THEY'RE DESIGNING THE SIDEWALKS IN FRONT OF THE SCHOOL TO HOPEFULLY EXTEND AND MAKE A LITTLE BIT SAFER FOR THE STUDENTS THAT ARE WALKING TO SCHOOL. IT WILL BE HOPEFULLY A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY IN TERMS OF FUNDING, SO STILL A LITTLE BIT TO GO THERE IN TERMS OF MAKING SURE EVERYBODY'S FULLY ALIGNED ON SOURCES OF FUNDING, BUT THE DESIGN WORK HAS BEEN COMPLETED AND I THINK THE CITY CERTAINLY HAS BEEN A GOOD PARTNER FOR THE DISTRICT. I DON'T SEE ANY REASON THEY WOULDN'T CONTINUE TO BE SO ON THIS. WE'LL SEE. THE LAST HANDFUL OF PROJECTS AROUND PRIORITY CAPITAL APPEARS TO BE HAPPENING. DISTRICT-WIDE FLOORING IS CONTINUING THIS SUMMER. WE HAVE A LOT KICKING OFF ACTUALLY THIS SUMMER. THAT'S STARTING

056JUNE 18th ONCE SCHOOL IS OUT. THEY'RE STARTING TO PLAN FOR AND GETTING BIDS STARTING THE FALL FOR LAKE OSWEGO'S HIGH SCHOOL ROOF REPLACEMENT, SO MAKING SURE WE HAVE SAFE SCHOOLS FOR OUR STUDENTS. SOME OF THOSE BIDS WILL COME IN LATE FALL FOR THE PROJECT TO START SUMMER OF '26 AND PHASE TWO SUMMER OF '27. THE POOL FIELDHOUSE RENOVATION WHICH DR. SCHIELE ALSO TOUCHED ON WILL BE SUMMER OF '25, EXCITED TO HAVE ANOTHER SPACE FOR THE COMMUNITY TO USE AS A GYM. I FEEL LIKE WE'VE HEARD SEVERAL TIMES THAT'S IMPORTANT. THE LAST THING ON MY LIST, HVAC RETROFIT THIS SUMMER. MY SON MISSED A COUPLE DAYS LAST YEAR BECAUSE OF HIGH TEMPERATURES. NOT EVERY SCHOOL WAS IMPACTED. RIVER GROVE IS STILL OPEN, OUR NEWEST ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. I'M EXCITED WE'LL HAVE AGAIN SAFE, COMFORTABLE TEACHING ENVIRONMENT FOR

057OUR STUDENTS AND, FRANKLY, OUR STAFF. EVERYBODY DESERVES TO BE COMFORTABLE. THAT'S EVERYTHING. WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU ALL HAVE FOR ME? I WAS GOING TO ASK JUST BRIEFLY, HVAC OAK CREEK, WEST RIDGE, HALINAN, ALREADY IN RIVER GROVE, LAKE RIDGE. WHAT IS PALISADES OR HAS IT BEEN DONE? PALISADES WAS DONE LAST YEAR. I COULDN'T REMEMBER. THANK YOU. HE'S GIVING A TOUR FOR THE CONSTRUCTION LIKE WE DID WITH RIVER GROVE. YEAH. WE CAN GO ANYTIME. BEFORE THE YEAR'S OVER MAYBE? THIS SUMMER. >> WEAR A HARD HAT. YOU HAVE TO DO THE WHOLE THING. AND THE VEST. >> IT LOOKS AMAZING, HOW MUCH THEY HAVE DONE. WHEN YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT ELECTRICAL, IT'S VERY IMPRESSIVE AND THE WHOLE ARCHWAY AND BRIDGE IS -- WE WANT THAT. THAT WOULD BE GREAT. >> VERY COOL. TONY TOOK ME ON THE ROOF

058SO I COULD SEE WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE. NICE. YOU MENTIONING ELECTRICAL SPARKED SOMETHING FOR ME EVEN WITH HVAC RETROFIT. IT'S NOT AS SIMPLE AS ME SAYING THESE WORDS, BUT THE WORK TONY DOES TO GO IN, UNDERSTAND THE MECHANICAL SYSTEMS IN PLACE, WHAT CAN BE SUPPORTED, WHAT CAN'T. I FEEL HE'S CONSTANTLY TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEMS TO MAKE SURE WE CAN FIND ACCOMMODATIONS AND SOLUTIONS FOR ALL THIS. I WOULD BE SURPRISED IF HE'S FOUND ONE PROJECT THAT WAS SIMPLE, QUITE FRANKLY. I DO HAVE A QUESTION. ARE THERE SAFETY THINGS IN HERE? ARE WE DOING DOORS, LOCKS? WE ARE. IT DID NOT MAKE IT ON THE LIST. I THOUGHT THIS SUMMER THERE WAS GOING TO BE SOME -- YEAH. >> GOOD. OTHER QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. >> KEEP AN EYE ON MICHAEL. WE WILL GO ON TO

0596.4, K-12 HEALTH CURRICULUM ADOPTION, MS. WASHINGTON. GOOD EVENING, CHAIR WALLIN, AND ALL BOARD MEMBERS. I'M LaKEYSHUA WASHINGTON. THIS IS KELLY BACK AGAIN. HERE TO GET AND SEEK AN APPROVAL FOR THE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE HEALTH CURRICULUM AND NEXT SLIDE. JUST TO REMIND YOU OF OUR JOURNEY, WHERE WE STARTED AND WITH STATE GUIDANCES AND WE TOOK IT THROUGH LOCAL EVALUATION AND RESEARCH AND THEN RECOMMENDATION BY THE COMMITTEES AND NOW WE'RE HERE AT THE BOARD APPROVAL PROCESS. NEXT. SO THE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS WERE FOR ELEMENTARY, THE GRADE BODY SHOP MIDDLE SCHOOL SIXTH THROUGH SEVENTH GRADE WOULD BE THE GOODHEART-WILLCOX COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH SKILLS AND EIGHTH GRADE WOULD BE HUMAN KINETICS LIVE WELL AND HIGH SCHOOL IS ALSO HUMAN KINETICS LIVE WELL. NEXT. SO WE TOOK --WHEN WE CAME TO SEE YOU ABOUT FOUR WEEKS AGO, WE PRESENTED THIS AND THEN

060WE GAVE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE COMMUNITY TO PROVIDE FEEDBACK AND TO REVIEW THE MATERIALS. SO WE DID THAT THROUGH FROM APRIL 28th THROUGH MAY 23rd AND WE WERE ABLE TO PROVIDE DIGITAL ACCESS TO OUR TEXTBOOKS AND MATERIALS FOR THOSE DIFFERENT CURRICULUM AND WE HAVE SOME DATA REGARDING THE COMMUNITY REVIEW. WE HAVE 170 VIEWS OF THE MATERIAL ON OUR WEBSITE AND WE HAD EIGHT SUBMISSIONS OF FEEDBACK ON OUR GOOGLE FORM AND SO THAT WAS FOUR FROM ELEMENTARY, TWO FROM MIDDLE SCHOOL, AND TWO FROM HIGH SCHOOL. THE COMMUNITY COMMENTS AND ADDRESS THOSE. WE HAVE FOUR RESPONSES OF THE EIGHT THAT EXPRESS SATISFACTION WITH THE CURRICULUM. THEY FELT THAT THE CONTENT AND THE INSTRUCTIONAL ACTIVITIES MEET THE NEEDS OF ALL STUDENTS AND REFLECT THE ALIGNMENT OF OUR OREGON HEALTH EDUCATION STANDARDS. WE HAVE THREE RESPONSES THAT --WELL, FOUR RESPONSES

061THAT EXPRESS CONCERN. TWO OF THOSE WERE CONCERNED ABOUT THAT THE CONTENT WAS NOT AGE- APPROPRIATE FOR THE GRADE LEVEL. ONE WAS REGARDING THE CONCERN THAT SOME OF THE CONTENT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DISCUSSED AT HOME AND NOT AT SCHOOL. THE WAY THAT WE ANALYZEANALYZE DATA, WE WERE ABLE TO ADDRESS ALL OF THE CONCERNS. THEY REALLY PRETTY MUCH HAVE COME DOWN TO TWO THINGS. NUMBER ONE, THE SPECIFIC TOPICS OF CONCERN REPRESENT INSTRUCTION OF CONTENT KNOWLEDGE REQUIRED BY THE OREGON DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION TO THE HEALTH STANDARDS AND/OR MANDATED BY OREGON LEGISLATION, AND THE SECOND RESPONSE IS THAT PARENTS --SO THAT FIRST RESPONSE ADDRESSES ALL FOUR CONCERNS. AND THEN WE WANT TO ALSO SAY THAT PARENTS HAVE A DECISION TO OPT OUT OF SPECIFIC LESSONS AND UNITS AND BE PROVIDED WITH THEIR CHILD PROVIDED AN ALTERNATIVE LEARNING OPPORTUNITY. THAT

062IS AT THE DISCRETION OF THE PARENT, AND THEY CAN MAKE ARRANGEMENTS WITH THE CHILD'S SCHOOL AND PRINCIPAL AT THE WILL SCHOOL. CAN YOU DESCRIBE WHAT THE PROCESS LOOKS LIKE IN TERMS OF THE PARENT RECEIVING NOTICE ABOUT WHATEVER THE TOPIC WOULD BE AND HOW THEY WOULD GO ABOUT TALKING ABOUT THAT. I WILL START. THE TEACHERS SEND OUTLETERS TO INFORM THE FAMILIES ABOUT THE CONTENT OF THE UPCOMING MODULE. IN THAT LETTER INFORMS THE PARENT THAT THEY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO OPT OUT OF THE LESSON. ONE OF THE BIG THING TO COME OUT OF THE PARENT SURVEY IS TO INCREASE AND INCREASE. TEACHERS INCREASED THEIR NOTIFICATION PROCESS. BUILD THE RELATIONSHIP. PARENTS TO TEACHER. WITH THAT INCREASING PARENTS KNOW EXACTLY WHAT DAY AND WHAT TOPIC IS HAPPENING SO THAT THE COMMUNICATION REALLY DOES HAPPEN WITH THE CLASSROOM TEACHER. SORRY.

063ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT IS THE ASPIRATIONAL WAY OR THAT IS WHAT IS HAPPENING? YES AND YES, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU. CAN YOU TALK A BIT MORE ABOUT THE MECHANICS OF THE OPT OUT. IF A PARENT OPTS THE STUDENT OUT, WHAT DOES THE STUDENT DO? I AM ASSUMING IT IS DIFFERENT BY GRADE LEVEL. HOW IS THAT MANAGED? WHAT IS THE STUDENT EXPERIENCE LIKE DURING THAT PROCESS. HONESTLY IT VARIES FROM SCHOOL TO SCHOOL. YOU KNOW CERTAIN TEACHER TEAMS WILL PLAN THEIR WEEK AROUND IT SO THAT THERE MIGHT BE THREE TEAM MEMBERS AND ONE PERSON MIGHT BE TEACHING AT A CERTAIN TIME AND THEY COULD BE SHIFTING STUDENTS AROUND. I KNOW WHEN I TAUGHT KINDERGARTEN, I CALLED THEM CADET TEACHERS. WE HAD THEM PUT IN A LEADERSHIP POSITION SO THEY DID NOT FEEL LIKE THEY WERE MISSING

064OR THEY WERE BEING PENALIZED FOR BEING OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM. A LOT OF PRINCIPALS USE THESE. EVERY TEAM ADJUSTED MINIMALIZE. I HAVE FULL FAITH IN THE BUILDING AND THE STAFF AND ADMINISTRATION TO MANAGE THIS APPROPRIATELY. I WOULD LIKE TO BE SURE THAT THE STUDENTS THAT MAY BE OPTING OUT OF SOME OF THESE ARE ISOLATED OR FEELING OSTRACIZED OR SPOTLIGHTED. I THINK THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WE CAN LOOK INTO AND THINK OF MORE HOW TO ADDRESS IT ON A SYSTEM LEVEL AND ENSURE THERE IS A COMMON UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE. I WOULD HATE FOR A STUDENT WHO WILL GO TO MR. JONES CLASS. MR. JONES IS OUT THAT DAY. NOW THE STUDENT GETS KIND OF CAUGHT IN THIS, WELL, YOU CAN GO TO THE LIBRARY AND INDEPENDENTLY STUDY OR SOMETHING. I WOULD LIKE TO AVOID

065THAT IF WE CAN. THAT WOULD BE GREAT. I DO. I THINK THAT IT IS HARD. I THINK THAT PARENTS NEED TO EXPECT WHERE IF YOU MAKE A DECISION, AND THAT IS TOTALLY YOUR DECISION, TO NOT HAVE YOUR CHILD PARTICIPATE. IT IS THE SAME IF YOU DON'T WANT YOUR CHILD READING THE BOOK. IT MIGHT BE READING THERE IN THE LIBRARY. IT MIGHT BE SELF READING. IT MIGHT BE HARD TO EXPECT A TEACHER TO HAVE A PLAN PERFECT EVERY TIME A PARENT DOES NOT WANT THEIR KID PARTICIPATING IN THE STANDARD CLASSROOM. I THINK THAT'S WHERE WE NEED TO TRUST THE TEACHER AND THE PRINCIPAL TO HAVE PLANS. I DON'T WANT TO OVERLY COMMIT FROM A BOARD PERSPECTIVE, WHETHER IT IS HEALTH OR ANYTHING, CREATING SOMETHING WHERE THERE IS A SYSTEM. IT MIGHT NOT BE PERFECT. I GET

066WHAT YOU ARE SAYING. I DO NOT WANT US TO OVERDRIVE THAT. THAT IS WHAT THE PARENTS' DECISION IS. IT COULD BE FOR ANYTHING. I DON'T WANT THEM READING THE BOOK. I DON'T WANT THEM IN THE CLASS OR DOING THE SCIENCE PROJECT. THAT IS FINE. WHEN WE TAKE THEM OUT OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND WHEN WE HAVE THEM DOING SOLO LEARNING. I KNOW THERE ARE YEARS WE DON'T HAVE ANYONE. AS THEY GET OLDER, MIDDLE SCHOOL, HIGH SCHOOL. ELEMENTARY SEES A FEW MORE. I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT. I AM MORE CONCERNED WITH IT AT THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL LEVEL. I UNDERSTAND THAT WE AS A DISTRICT AND IN THIS INSTANCE STAND BEHIND AND SUPPORT. 100%. TO THE EXTENT THERE IS FORETHOUGHT, I THINK THAT WILL NET POSITIVE CIRCUMSTANCES. YEAH. YEAH. I GET IT. WE CANNOT CUSTOM EVERY DAY FOR EVERY

067STUDENT. I UNDERSTAND. YEAH. YEAH. >> RIGHT. NEXT SLIDE. MORE THAN YOU KNOW. THANK YOU. WE WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST THAT YOU CONSIDER APPROVING THESE CURRICULUM FOR OUR K-12 HEALTH EDUCATION PROGRAM. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS? I'M GUESSING THIS WAS NOT MADE TODAY. TRYING TO READ THINGS AS YOU ARE DOING THE PRESENTATION IS NOT MY FAVORITE WAY OF DIGESTING COMMENTS. I APOLOGIZE. THAT WAS MY ERROR. I SHOULD HAVE FORWARDED THAT DOCUMENT ON TO KELLY ON FRIDAY. LAST WEEK. THAT WOULD BE GREAT IN THE FUTURE. THANK YOU. THAT IS TODAY'S PRESENTATION. EXCITED ABOUT THE CURRICULUM. WE WILL SEE IF THERE IS A MOTION TO ADOPT THE CURRICULUM. I WILL MOVE TO APPROVE THE K-12 HEALTH CURRICULUM. SECOND. THERE IS NO OTHER DISCUSSION. ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE. AYE. ADOPTED. K-12. THANK YOU. >> YES. THANK YOU GUYS. NEXT

068CURRICULUM. WE HAVE 6.5. EDUCATIONAL DATA. MR. WASHINGTON AND MR. SCHINDERLE. I ALWAYS FIND THE DATA INTERESTING. I AM UP AGAIN. I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT TECHNOLOGY AND THE FINANCES RELATED TO THE DEVICE PROGRAMS. THE DEVICE PROTECTION FEE THIS YEAR WAS $40. WE RAISED IT FROM LAST YEAR. WE HAD A TOTAL OF 143 DEVICE PROTECTION AGREEMENTS THAT WERE WAIVED SO THAT THE COST WAS WAIVED. WE HAD 3,549 THAT WERE PAID AGREEMENTS. THE TOTAL COLLECTED WAS 141,350. WE HAVE A PROCESSING FEE WEWE TO PAY TO SUPPORT THE PAYMENT SYSTEM WE HAD. THAT WAS PAID BY THE DISTRICT. THAT WAS $6,185.25. OUR NET TOTAL COLLECTED FOR DEVICE PROTECTION WAS $135,164.75. THAT IS THE NET TOTAL WE COLLECTED. NOW, DEVICE REPAIR. AS YOU KNOW AS A REMINDER THE ESD SHUT DOWN THEIR SERVICES TO US SO THAT

069WE HAVE TO FEND FOR OURSELVES WITH HAVING OUR DEVICES REPAIRED AND WE CONTRACTED A COMPANY. WE THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BE CHEAPER THAN TO HIRE A PERSON. WE CONTRACTED A PERSON. ITURITY TO PROVIDE THE PARTS AND REPAIR. THIS YEAR WE SPENT $200, 191 ON REPAIRS AND HAD DEVICES WE HAD TO REPLACE, 52 DEVICES THAT WERE LOST. WE PAID $20,800 TO REPLACE THE LOST DEVICES. THE TOTAL COST THAT WE SPENT THIS YEAR WAS $220,991. EXCUSE ME, IN THAT NUMBER FOR THE $220,991 FOR TOTAL PART AND REPAIR FEES. IT WOULD BE INTERESTING TO KNOW WHAT PART OF THAT IS PARTS. IF WE HIRED OUR OWN PERSON. HISTORY TELLS ME THAT $200,000 IS HEAVILY WEIGHTED TOWARDS LABOR. I AM POINTING OUT THE OBVIOUS. WE KNOW SOMETHING HAS TO BE FIXED WITH THIS SYSTEM. YEAH. DID WE INCREASE THE

070FEE FOR THIS? FOR THIS SCHOOL YEAR, YES. WE INCREASED IT FOR 24/25. OKAY. SO, MOVING ON, WE HAVE TO BILL THE FAMILIES THAT DIDN'T CHOOSE TO PROVIDE THE PROTECTION PLAN. THE TOTAL BILLINGS WAS $35,098.75. OF THAT WE ONLY HAVE RECOUPED $5,791. WE BILL THEM AT THE END OF 12th GRADE? THEY ARE BEING INFORMED OF THE BILL THROUGH THE YEAR AS WELL. WE HAVE AN OUTSTANDING BALANCE OF $29,307. 75 OF UNPAID BILLS. HOW MANY OF THEM ARE SENIORS? WE CAN GATHER THAT DATA. MOSTLY MIDDLE SCHOOL. YEAH. DO YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW WHAT THE NUMBER WAS? I REMEMBER BEING SHOCKED LAST YEAR. I AM SHOCKED AGAIN. I DON'T KNOW IF I AM MORE SHOCKED OR LESS SHOCKED. IT IS MORE. IT IS DOUBLE. WE CAN'T KEEP UPPING THE FEE. AT SOME POINT YOU MIGHT AS WELL JUST

071BUY YOUR OWN. YOU KNOW, PEOPLE ARE NOT GOING TO DO IT. YEAH. >> ITURITY HAD A HUGE IMPACT ON THAT AMOUNT. ALSO JUST THE MISUSE OF OUR DEVICES. THAT IS SOMETHING WE WILL NEED TO ADDRESS. DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA OF WHY DEVICES ARE BEING LOST AND WHAT IS GOING -- ON WITH THEM? WHAT IS HAPPENING? SOME ARE BEING LOST, LITERALLY LOST. 52 ARE LOST. SOME ARE RECKLESS, YOU KNOW CARE OF THEM AND NEGLECT. SOME ARE THINGS THAT ARE ACCIDENTAL. I MEAN WE CAN BREAK IT DOWN. THAT IS A DATA POINT THAT WE ARE GOING TO NEED TO BE MORE PRECISE ON IN ADDRESSING. YEAH. DO WE TREAT FIXING DEVICES DIFFERENTLY BASED ON WHETHER IT IS RECKLESS OR CARELESS OR ACCIDENTAL. A RECKLESS PERSON IS 8 AND HAD AN ACCIDENT? NO. >> WE REPAIR THEM

072THE SAME? YEAH. IF THEY HAVE TO BE REPAIRED. YEAH. THAT IS WHERE I AM GOING. THE KIDS DOING THE TIKTOK THING TRYING TO SET THEM ON FIRE. THAT WAS NOT COVERED. THERE WAS A TIKTOK CHALLENGE WHERE PEOPLE WERE PUTTING LEAD INTO THE CHARGING CORD. WHAT? >> LIKE A LEAD PENCIL? DON'T BE SHOCKED. WE ALSO HAD TIDE PODS. I KNOW. SOME OF THEM WERE SMOKING. THEY WERE BEING TURNED IN AS THEY WERE SMOKING. WE HAVE TO TURN ALL OF THESE BACK. ONE OF THE REPAIR PEOPLE FOUND LEAD. WE STARTED TO LOOK INTO THEM. KIDS WERE PUTTING LEAD IN TO. YOU KNOW LIKE MECHANICAL PENCIL LEAD. GRAPHITE. YEAH. >> OH MY GOSH. WE PUT NEWS IN THE NEWSLETTER. YOU KNOW, TELL YOUR CHILDREN TO STOP PUTTING GRAPHITE IN THERE. IT SEEMED LIKE FUNNY BECAUSE THEY COULD GET

073THEM TO SMOKE, BUT IT WASN'T FUNNY. THAT DID NOT GET COVERED. IT DID TAKE US A WHILE. THOSE ARE BEHAVIORAL. SOME CAME BACK, I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. MOSTLY MIDDLE SCHOOL. HOW OFTEN IN MIDDLE SCHOOL ARE KIDS GETTING LESSONS. I KNOW THAT IT IS HARD. THEY WANT TO HAVE FUN AND THAT IS THEIR IDEA OF FUN. YOU KNOW, I KNOW THAT WE DO LESSONS IN WILL IGH SCHOOL. WE GOT THE LOCKDOWN LESSON A WEEK AFTER THE MIDDLE SCHOOL HAPPENED. HOW OFTEN FOR THAT AT THE MIDDLE SCHOOL IS HAVING THAT TECHNOLOGY. IT IS MORE LIKE PICK UP YOUR SCHOOL. I REMEMBER DOING IT IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. TREAT YOUR TECHNOLOGY WELL. WE DID EXPECTATIONS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR IN HIGH SCHOOL. ONE WAS ALWAYS TREAT YOUR DEVICES WELL. I DO NOT REMEMBER GETTING THAT ONE

074IN MIDDLE SCHOOL. MIDDLE SCHOOL IS THE TIME THEY BREAK MORE STUFF AT HOME. I FEEL LIKE IT IS THE AGE. YOUR BRAIN IS AT THE LOWEST LEVEL OF STUPIDITY. WITH ALL DUE RESPECT. THERE IS A LOT GOING ON. DOING A BIG GROWTH SPURT. IT WOULD PROBABLY HAPPEN AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR. MAYBE THEY ARE ALL IN SCHOOL. IS IT COMMON ENOUGH AND HAPPENING ENOUGH WHERE IT WOULD REDUCE THE RISK OF COST? IS THAT COMMON? THAT IS WHAT WE ARE LOOKING IN TO THE COST. WE ARE NOT SEEING IT. WE DON'T SEE IT IN HIGH SCHOOL. IT IS MOSTLY MIDDLE SCHOOL. CHROMEBOOKS WE USE HERE ARE NOT THE ONES YOU GET FROM TARGET. THEY HAVE TO BE BIG ENOUGH TO STORE THE SYSTEM. IT HAS TO BE A NICER CHROMEBOOK. I THINK MY CHROMEBOOKS HAVE

075THE ONE THEY GOT IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. YEAH. THEY DON'T WORK THAT LONG. I THINK I HAVE HAD MINE SINCE SIXTH GRADE. THIS YEAR ALONE I REPLACED IT THREE OR FOUR TIMES. THAT WAS MY FIRST TIME IN SIXTH GRADE. YEAH. YOURS PROBABLY EXERCISED. I AM GUESSING THEY DID NOT COLLECT IT. YOU JUST RECYCLE ANYWAY. YEAH. YEAH. IN THE PAST THEY HAVE BEEN WORKING. THEY ARE GIVING YOU A USED ONE OR A BRAND-NEW ONE? A USED ONE. OKAY. SO, THE BOTTOM LINE IS. WE HAVE LOST $80,035. 25 THIS YEAR. THAT IS A REAL BUMMER. THAT IS NOT GOOD. MORE TO COME? YEAH. >> YEAH. MORE TO TO COME. THE INCREASE OF THE FEE AND THE REPAIR SITUATION AND DISCIPLINARY UPGRADES REGARDING THE CARE THAT IS BEING TAKEN OF THE DEVICES. DO WE KNOW HOW MUCH OF THAT

076IS LABOR? YEAH. ABSOLUTELY. THEY DO THEIR OWN THINGS. IT IS ALL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS. THEY TAKE OLD TECHNOLOGY AND REFURBISH IT. GOOD EVENING. I AM HERE TO REPORT ON THE SPECIAL EDUCATION REPORT CARD. THIS IS A YEAR, THE PREVIOUS SCHOOL YEARS. THE DATA FROM THE 23-24 SCHOOL YEAR THAT WAS JUST RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC EARLIER THIS MONTH. I TRIED TO DO A TRACK RECORD OF THE GRADUATION RATE. YOU WILL NOTICE THE DIP THERE AS WE TALKED IN PREVIOUS YEARS DURING COVID. WE WERE ALL A LITTLE BIT NERVOUS. BUT WE WERE BACK ON TRACK MOVING BACK TOWARDS THE MID-80s. WE WANTED TO CALL OUT THE TWO HIGH SCHOOLS AT THE HIGHEST EVER, 90.8. THAT IS PRETTY AMAZING. I THINK OF THE COLLECTIVE EFFORT THAT IT TAKES TO GET TO THE LEVEL OF ACHIEVEMENT. WE OFTEN LIKE

077TO SAY WE GIVE STAFF THE RESOURCES TO DO WITH WHAT THEY NEED TO DO WITH STUDENTS. THE WORK THEY DO HAS BEEN ON THE FOREFRONT. WE ARE GOING TO STAY THE COURSE THERE. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT THE NUMBER LOOKS LIKE PUBLICLY. ANY QUESTIONS THAT I CAN ANSWER ON THAT? WAS THAT IN 2023 AS WELL? CORRECT. >> IT IS JUST THIS YEAR. I THINK THAT BECAUSE WE ARE A YEAR BEHIND WE WILL HAVE ONE MORE YEAR. WHEN WE REPORT ONE MORE YEAR THEY WILL BE WITH US AND THAT INFORMATION WILL BE OUT. 2026. THEY ARE HEADING BACK. WE DID A TRANSITION MEETING BACK TO TRANSITION PAIR CREEK, THE RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT AND RECOVERY SCHOOL. THAT WILL BE BACK AFTER A TEAR DOWN AND REBUILD. SO, LOTS OF AUDIT IN SPECIAL EDUCATION AS WE ALL

078KNOW. THAT IS THE LAND THAT WE LIVE IN. SO, EVERY YEAR WE ARE EVALUATED FOR RACE AND ETHNICITY TO ENSURE THAT OUR PRACTICES AS A SYSTEM ARE NOT BIAS OR FREE OF BIAS AS THEY CAN BE. EVALUATIONS, ELIGIBILITY, AND THAT PERTAINS TO DISCIPLINE AS WELL AS THOSE WE WORK THROUGH THE EVALUATION TO BECOME ELIGIBLE FOR SOME EDUCATION. WE LOOK AT GENDER. WE LOOK AT RACE. BEHAVIOR WOULD BE THE FIRST ONE. AND FOR THE EVALUATIONS AND FOR THE IDENTIFICATIONS, THAT ONE REALLY TEASES IT. ARE YOU OVER IDENTIFYING MALES THAT HAPPEN TO BE OF COLOR AND HAVE BEHAVIORAL OR SOCIAL OR EMOTIONAL NEEDS. THAT IS THE BIGGEST ONE WE HAVE BEEN TRACKING. WE WERE HIGH THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF THE DEMOGRAPHICS. BECAUSE IT IS A CHARTER AND STUDENTS COME FROM ALL OVER THE PLACE THAT TYPICALLY LAND

079THERE, THEIR PROFILE COMES WITH THEM. WHEN THEY ARE THERE, WE ARE RESPONSIBLE AND THEY ARE PART OF OUR DATA. WE ARE ABLE TO TEASE THAT THROUGH THE PROCESS AND THEY INTERVIEW US AND WE SCRUTINIZE ALL OF THAT INFORMATION. QUESTIONS THAT I CAN ANSWER ON THIS SLIDE? NEXT ONE. THIS IS THE BIGGIE. STUDENTS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE FOR AN IEP, AND THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE 504s, JUST SPECIAL EDUCATION. I ADDED A COLUMN. YOU CAN SEE THE PERCENTAGE OF STUDENTS IDENTIFIED WITH A DISABILITY. YOU KNOW THE 11% CAP THAT WILL REMAIN UNFORTUNATELY. IT REALLY LOOKS BACK TO THE PAST TWO YEARS WHEN WE GET UP ABOVE THAT. DECEMBER OF 2022 IT WAS 11. 3 OR 11.6. AND FROM THERE WE HAVE BEEN INCREASING OVER 100 STUDENTS. PREVIOUS YEARS WE WOULD GO UP FROM A SINGLE DIGIT AND ONE

080YEAR I THINK IT WAS 35. EACH YEAR IT IS DIFFERENT. THE TREND IS CONTINUING. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT NEXT YEAR WILL LOOK LIKE. WE WILL SEE. WE HAD 6,383 FOR DECEMBER ENROLLMENT AND WE ARE AT 212 STUDENTS THAT WE ARE NOT RECEIVING THE SECOND WAVE FOR. ABOUT $2. 5 MILLION. AND AS YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES IN YOUR POSITIONS YOU MIGHT HEAR OF A SITUATION THAT WE ACTIVELY RESPOND TO ACROSS THE LAND. KNOWING THAT TAKES RESOURCES TO RESPOND TO. THOSE RESOURCES COME TO THE BUILDINGS FROM THE DISTRICT. THERE IS A COST ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE THAT SOMETIMES YOU HEAR ABOUT. WE LOOKED AT REDUCING DISTRICT LEVEL POSITIONS VERSUS SCHOOL-BASED. KEEPING OUR LOADS ACROSS ALL BUILDINGS COMPARABLE TO THE COUNTY. WE LOST TWO BEHAVIORAL SPECIALISTS. WE HAVE AN ADMINISTRATOR RETIRING. WE WILL NOT FILL THAT. WE HAVE A

081PSYCHOLOGIST POSITION WITH THE INTENT NOT TO DISRUPT SERVICES THAT ARE IN MOTION IN THE BUILDINGS GIVEN THAT NEEDS ARE HIGH AND STAYING THERE. QUESTIONS THAT I CAN ANSWER AROUND THE CHILD COUNT? I WOULD SAY THAT IT IS A CREDIT TO YOUR TEAM, I THINK, SO MEANT STUDENTS WANTED TO COME HERE. AND IT IS THE LAW. IT IS NOT AN OPTION. IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO. IT IS THE LEGAL THING TO DO. YEAH. YOU GUYS DO A GOOD JOB AT IT. IT IS A TEAM EFFORT FOR SURE. I THINK THAT A LOT OF BUILDING BASED TEAMS ARE ROCK SOLID AND DOING GREAT THINGS FOR STUDENTS. WE WILL BE TIGHTENING THINGS UP HEADING INTO THE NEXT SCHOOL YEAR. STAFF IS WELL INFORMED OF THAT. I HAVE NO PROBLEM MAKING IT UNCOMFORTABLE FOR PEOPLE IN SALEM

082FOR NOT DELIVERING ON WHAT THEY SHOULD BE DELIVERING ON. ALL RIGHT. THANK Y'ALL. >> THANKS. 6.6. MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, INCLUDED IN YOUR MATERIALS A ONE- PAGE SUMMARY OF DATA IN RELATION TO THE REQUEST FOR A PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION. HERE IN PUBLIC COMMENT. 27 UNITS ARE FAMILY SIZED BEING A TWO OR THREE-BEDROOM UNIT AND THEY EXPECT SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 32 TO 64 STUDENTS THAT WOULD BE A PART OF THAT NEW DEVELOPMENT. THAT THEY HAVE ON SITE LIVE-IN LICENSED PROPERTY MANAGER AS WELL AS ON- SITE BILINGUAL RESIDENTS SERVICE COORDINATOR. THAT HELPS RESIDENTS GAINING ACCESS TO COMMUNITY RESOURCES AND STATE-WIDE RESOURCES SUCH AS THE OREGON HEALTH PLAN AND THAT OF THE TOTAL NUMBER OF UNITS OF THE 55. TEN OF THOSE ARE VOUCHER UNITS. THAT MEANS THEY ARE PART OF THE REGIONAL LONG-TERM RENTAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM THAT WILL

083HELP HOMELESS FAMILIES GET HOMES AND THAT 5 OF THE 10 WILL RELATE TO THE FAMILY SIZED UNITS. THEY ALSO NOTE THAT HACIENDA HAS A DEPARTMENT OF YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICE S SERVICES ALL QUALIFYING MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY. I WOULD NOTE THAT THIS IS THE FIRST PRESENTATION WE ARE MAKING. WE WILL BE BRINGING FORWARD A REQUEST FROM MERS MERS HOUSING IN RELATION TO THE DEVELOPMENT FROM LAST SUMMER. THE SISTERS PROPERTY. WE HAVE HAD SOME EXPERIENCE INCORPORATING STUDENTS FROM THE DEVELOPMENTS INTO OUR SCHOOLS. YOU KNOW, FORTUNATELY THERE ARE STATE DOLLARS AND A SKATE SCHOOL FUNT FROM --FUNDING FROM MORE UNITS. PROVIDED SOME DATA THAT IS --THERE IS NOT A -- THERE IS NOT A WAY TO DETERMINE WHAT THE ASSESSED VALUE WOULD BE FOR HACIENDA. I LOOSELY BASED IT ON MERCY'S ASSESSED VALUES IN RELATION TO MY

084ROUGH ESTIMATE ON WHAT HIS CAUGHT WAS. THEY ARE NOMINAL VALUES IN RELATION TO THE COST OF CONSTRUCTION. THAT IS DIFFERENT THAN WHAT HAPPENED IN THE COMMERCIAL SECTOR WHERE IT IS NOT UNCOMMON THAT YOUR COST OF CONSTRUCTION WOULD BE CLOSE TO SET VALUE. THAT IS DIFFERENT AS IT RELATE S S TO THE MERCY HOUSING PROJECT WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY. IT IS BEING BROUGHT FORWARD AS AN INFORMATIONAL ITEM. THERE IS A FORMAL RESOLUTION THAT WILL NEED TO BE ADOPTED. TO ALLOW THIS REQUEST. WE WANT TO FIND OUT IF THERE ARE ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS THAT THE BOARD MIGHT LIKE GETTING ANSWERS TO. YOU KNOW, QUESTIONS THAT WE WOULD BRING FORWARD. I WANT TO LEAVE IT THERE. AM CURIOUS. YOU SAID EARLIER IT WOULD BE ABOUT $130,000 A YEAR. WHAT IS THE OTHER? >> CITY, COUNTY. URE KNOW, MY IS AN

085INTERNAL ESTIMATE. TYPICALLY THE SCHOOL'S SLICE OF THAT IS 40%. THAT WOULD BE $60,000. THAT IS HIGHER THAN I HAVE IN MY MATERIAL. I HAVE A QUESTION. SO THEY ARE SAYING IT COULD BE 34 TO 64 KIDS. AROUND $11,000 PER STUDENT. I AM CURIOUS. I LOVE THE GREAT SUPPORT THEY PROVIDE THE FAMILIES. I KNOW KNOWING A LOT OF FAMILIES AND LEARNING FROM THE EXPERIENCE SOMETHING THAT I THINK IS MISSING AND THAT I WOULD BE CURIOUS TO KNOW IS THE SUPPORT THAT THE SCHOOLS NEED AND THE TRANSITION FOR THE FAMILY. A LESSON LEARNED OR SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE BENEFICIAL TO KIND OF BRING FOLKS TOGETHER. IF THERE ARE NO TAXES TO BE PAID WHAT WOULD IT LOOK LIKE OR IS THERE A POSSIBILITY TO HAVE THE HACIENDA INTEST IN A SCHOOL BASED POSITION TO WORK WITH? I

086WISH THAT WE HAD THAT WITH, YOU KNOW, A POSITION WORKING WITH MERCY. I AM JUST CURIOUS IF THAT IS A POSSIBILITY AND IF THAT IS A QUESTION THAT YOU CAN ASK WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE TO NOT BE PAYING TAXES. I DON'T THINK THAT WILL BE PART OF THIS DISCUSSION, BUT I THINK THAT YOUR POINT IS THAT YES, THEY TALK ABOUT HAVING THINGS IN PLACE AFTER IT IS BUILT. YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT SOMETHING BEFORE FAMILIES MOVE IN SO THAT WHEN THEY HAVE MOVED IN. I AM TALKING ONCE THEY HAVE MOVED IN. THEY HAVE TO HAVE IMMEDIATE ACCESS. YOU CAN'T WAIT AND THEN START A PROGRAM. YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT A FREE PROGRAM. I AM TALKING ABOUT PRE, CURRENT, DURING. THAT SAY LITTLE DIFFERENT. SUDDEN. YEAH. >> MY QUESTION IS WHY WOULD YOU TAKE EDUCATION FUNDING AWAY

087FROM IT. ONE OF THE REASONS FOR BEING IN IN THIS IS EDUCATION. WHY ARE THEY MAKING A PITCH TO TAKE EDUCATION FUNDING AWAY. I KNOW IT IS NOT A LOT. $30,000 TO $60,000 IS A HALF OF A TEACHER. THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE. I HAVE A COUPLE OF THINGS. FROM A LEGAL STANDPOINT. I KNOW THE WAY SCHOOL TAXES IN OREGON WORK IS STRANGE. WE TAKE THE $60,000. GOES THROUGH THE BLACK BOX. WE GET SOME OF IT BACK. THEY STILL COUNT THAT AS OUR MONEY. HOW DOES THE SKATE FEEL ABOUT US CUTTING BACK ON THEIR REVENUE? YEAH. YEAH. >> THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION. THE MECHANISMS THAT CREATED THE OPPORTUNITIES TO BE EXEMPTED FROM PAYING PROPERTY TAXES WERE APPROVED. I BELIEVE THAT THERE WERE REFINEMENTS TO THE STATE LAW, YOU KNOW, WITHIN THE PAST SEVERAL LEGISLATIVE CYCLES

088IN THE SENSE THAT ADDRESSING HOMELESSNESS AND THE LACK OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN THE PORTLAND METRO AREA AND IN OTHER AREAS OF THE STATE HAS BEEN A PRIORITY FOR OUR CURRENT GOVERNOR AND FOR THE PREVIOUS GOVERNOR AS WELL. I HAVE NOT PAID ENOUGH ATTENTION OVER THE YEARS TO KNOW WHEN ALL OF THE LAWS THAT CREATED THE CURRENT STRUCTURE AND THE INCENTIVES FOR PROVIDING LOW ITEM HOUSING AT PRICE POINTS THAT MAKE IT AVAILABLE AND WHAT ROLE THE METRO TAX IS PAYING. THERE ARE TYPICALLY METRO DOLLARS THAT . THAT MIGHT BE MADE AVAILABLE FOR THAT. JUST TO BE CLEAR, THIS IS NOT A LIABILITY ISSUE? RIGHT? IN OTHER WORDS WE SUPPORT THAT. THAT DOES NOT AFFECT THE PROJECT. IT HASN'T BEEN CHARACTERIZED TO ME THAT WAY. IF IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE THE PLANS ARE FAR ENOUGH ALONG

089WHERE THEY REACH THE CRITICAL JUNCTURE AND IT APPEARS TO ME THAT IT IS HELPING TO ENSURE THEY ARE ABLE TO KEEP THAT. KEEP PRICES AND MEET THEIR LOW INCOME LEVELS OF TRACKING THE PEOPLE IN THE VARIOUS RANGES. AND THEN THE SUPPLEMENTAL SERVICES THAT THEY WOULD PROVIDE. IT SEEMS TO ME LESS LIKELY THAT IT IS AN ISSUE THAT RELATES DIRECTLY TO WHAT THEY WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE AVAILABLE. THEY WILL MEET THE REQUIREMENTS THEY HAVE TO MEET. THE BENEFIT IS SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAMMING AND SUPPORT THAT THEY WANT TO BE IN PLACE. I THINK THE POINT THAT I MADE EARLIER IT BECOMES A QUESTION OF THIS MONEY IS GOING TO BE USED TO SUPPORT OTHER PROGRAMS AND SERVICES BUT NOT THE SCHOOL'S PROGRAM AND SERVICES. I NEED TO UNDERSTAND, BECAUSE WE NEED TO SKIP THIS MARK. IN CONSIDERATION

090OF THAT, WE ARE SUBSTITUTING ONE BUCKET OF PROGRAMMING FOR ANOTHER BUCKET OF PROGRAMMING. ONE OF THE BUCKETS HAS TO BE IN COMMUNICATION FUNDING. I GUESS THAT WE HAVE THE TWO DEVELOPMENTS, THE HACIENDA AND THE OTHER ONE, BUT WE HAVE TWO OTHER PROJECTS HAPPENING HERE. I KNOW THAT IT IS SENIOR HOUSING. IF WE WERE TO SUDDENLY COME UP WITH ALL FOUR OF THEM, THAT IS A LOT OF MONEY. THE GENTLEMAN WAS HERE EARLIER. WAS HE NOT ABLE TO TALK TO THE SCHOOL BOARD. IT HASN'T BEEN OUR PRACTICE TO HAVE OUTSIDE PARTIES MAKING PRESENTATIONS. WE COULD CHANGE THAT IF THAT WAS THE BOARD'S DESIRE FOR THE JUNE 30 MEETING. IF WE ARE MAKING A DECISION JUNE 30. THIS IS WHEN WE ARE GATHERING MORE. HOPEFULLY WE CAN GET ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS. I WOULD LIKE TO COLLECT

091IT. SAY BASED ON THE REVENUE THAT WE GET. I THINK WE KNOW HOW MUCH THAT WE SPENT MORE OR LESS. I KNOW THERE ARE NUMBERS THAT WE CAN'T BELIEVE. I THINK WE HAVE A SENSE THAT IT COSTS MORE THAN THAT. IF THERE IS ANY WAY TO QUANTIFY THAT? I KNOW THAT THERE ARE ALL KINDSKINDS ISSUES THAT WE CAN'T DO IT THAT DISCREETLY. IF THERE IS SOME WAY TO MAKE THAT DECISION. WHEN DID THE CITY AND THE COUNTY SAY THEY ARE NOT GOING TO COLLECT TAX REVENUE? IT IS PART OF A BLANKET WIDE EXEMPTION THE CITY PASSED. THAT WAS A PART OF THAT. THAT WAS PART OF A LARGER DISCUSSION THE CITY HAS. MY UNDERSTANDING A BLANKET EXEMPTION EXEMPTION. THAT IS BASED ON THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING GOALS. CITY GOALS. YEAH. I DO NOT BELIEVE THEY HAVE

092APPROACHED THE COUNTY. THEY HAVE TO REACH A TAX BASE OF THE JURISDICTION THAT THE DEVELOPMENT IS IN. THE CITY AND THE COUNTY TOGETHER WOULD NOT REACH THAT GOAL. THE SCHOOL DISTRICT DOES REACH THAT. IT ONLY REQUIRES OUR APPROVAL TO GREEN LIGHT IT AND FOR THEM TO GET THE 50%. OTHERWISE THEY WOULD HAVE TO, YOU KNOW, . IS THIS THEIR USUAL PROCESS. THEY HAVE DECIDED TO DO THIS. I UNDERSTAND. IS THAT THEIR USUAL PRACTICE? WE DON'T KNOW. THIS RESOLUTION THAT YOU WOULD BRING, IS THAT PERMANENT FOR ALL-TIME? IS THAT HOW IT WOULD WORK? YEAH. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING. AS LONG AS IT STAYS AS A LOW INFORMATION HOUSING, YOU KNOW, THE DEFINITION OF LOW INCOME UNDER OREGON LAW WOULD BE TAX EXEMPT. IS T MY UNDERSTANDING THEY HAVE ABOUT 60 STUDENTS. IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS

093ABOUT HALF. 30 TO 60. YEAH. 30 TO 60 STUDENTS. I'M NOT SURE THERE IS A WAY TO ENSURE THAT. HOW MUCH OF THAT, WHAT NUMBER OF THOSE ARE FAMILY HOUSING. WE DON'T HAVE THAT DATA. MAYBE THINK ABOUT THIS. WE HAVE A FEW WEEKS TO GET QUESTIONS. SORRY. WE ARE GOING TO BE ASKED TO MAKE A DECISION AND I WANT TO BE ABLE TO MAKE SURE AND GET MY HEAD AROUND THIS. WE ARE ALREADY PAST THAT. WE ARE NOT GOING TO GET ANY ADDITIONAL MONEY BUT THE FIRST 11,000 THAT COMES IN. IT IS HARD TO SAY HOW MUCH MONEY. I DON'T KNOW THE STUDENTS. I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH THEY ARE GOING TO COST. IT WOULD BE SAFE TO SAY THAT IT WILL NOT BE ZERO. IT WILL NOT BE ZERO. I AM JUST TRYING TO

094UNDERSTAND THE RATIONAL WE ARE FACING A BUDGET CRISIS FOR LEAVING --WE HAVE A BUDGET COMMITTEE. HOW CAN WE GET MORE REVENUE INTO THE DISTRICT? I HAVE NOT HEARD A COMPELLING REASON WHY WE SHOULD BE TAKING THIS MONEY OUT OF THE CALCULATION. MAYBE I MISSED IT. I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR IT. I HAVE NOT HEARD THAT COMPELLING REASON. WHAT DO THEY PAY IN TO, THE SYSTEM ON THEIR OWN? FREE GOODWILL OTHER FOLLOW THE CIVIC DUTY OF PAYING TAXES. WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY WITHOUT SAYING IS, IT IS HAS BEEN VERY CHALLENGING. THERE IS A CULTURE SHIFT THAT WILL TAKE YEARS. I THINK THAT IT IS WONDERFUL WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO DO AND I THINK WE HAVE VERY MUCH UNDERESTIMATED THE CITY AND I THINK WE HAVE UNDERESTIMATED THE SHIFT OF WHAT HAS HAPPENED. UNDERESTIMATED

095AND UNDERFUNDED. ABSOLUTELY. UNDERFUNDING DOES NOT HELP. >> THE SUPPORT THAT IS NEEDED FOR THE FAMILIES TO TRANSITION INTO A COMMUNITY THAT HAS HIGH EXPECTATIONS OF WHAT EDUCATION IS. FAMILIES NOT READY FOR THAT. STUDENTS ARE NOT READY. WITHOUT STAFF IN OUR SCHOOLS, NOT JUST THE AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS. WE DON'T HAVE THE STAFF. WE DON'T HAVE THE STAFF TO DO THAT. I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I UNDERSTAND. I AM HEARING YOU SAY THAT THE CULTURE SHIFT IS COMING FROM A BACKGROUND OR A DISPOSITION OF CERTAIN ACADEMIC EDUCATIONAL EXPECTATIONS. IT DIFFERS, ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. ALL DEMOGRAPHICS. I GREW UP IN VEGAS. WE WERE NOT THE EDUCATIONAL MECCA OF THE U.S. IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING THAT HELPS THE FAMILIES AS THEY MOVE INTO A DIFFERENT LEVEL OF EXPECTATION, I UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT

096IS. MAYBE THAT IS A CULTURAL. I THINK THAT IT IS FAIR TO SAY THAT WE SEE A TRANSITION WHEN THE PEOPLE TRANSFER IN JUNIOR HIGH AND HIGH SCHOOL. THAT IS ANOTHER ONE OF THE TRANSITIONS. IT IS A DIFFERENT THING WHEN SOMEONE COMES FROM ANOTHER SCHOOL DISTRICT. THE KIDS ARE COMING ANYWAY. WE ARE GETTING MORE MONEY TO PAY FOR IT. THE AMOUNT OF THE TAX IS ABOUT 10% OF THAT, RIGHT. WE ARE GETTING ABOUT $53,000. $530,000. THAT IS A PRETTY SMALL PORTION. TOTALLY. >> ARE WE LIKE --THEY ARE GOING TO BE HELPING PEOPLE. IS THAT $53,000 GOING TO MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE? I DON'T KNOW. IT IS A VALUE STATEMENT UNLESS THEY ARE WILLING TO SERIOUSLY. COULD THEY PAY FOR SOMETHING IN PERPETUITY OUTSIDE OF THEIR TAX DOLLAR. THAT IS THE SAME THING. I DON'T SEE

097THE RUSH. WHAT IS THE VALUE AT FOR TAKING THE MONEY OUT OF THE SCHOOL DISTRICT? WE ARE TALKING ABOUT GIVING THEM SOMETHING. IT SOUNDS LIKE IMPERPETUITY TO NOT EVER PAY TAXES. WE ARE TRYING TO SHARPEN THE PENCIL FOR EVERYONE. I WANT TO JUST SEE FOR MYSELF. HERE IS THE TRICK. HERE IS THE VALUE. AND THERE MAY WELL BE A JUSTIFIABLE ONE. WE WILL TAKE ALL OF THE QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE AND WILL GET ANSWERS TO THEM QUICKLY. ALL RIGHT. SOUNDS LIKE WE ARE AT 6.7. CAN I GIVE A QUICK, PAST HALFTIME. PACERS ARE UP. CLOSER GAME ON THURSDAY. FRIDAY. FRIDAY. MEMBERS INCLUDED IN THE PACKET, THE QUARTER 3 FINANCIAL REPORT. THIS IS OUR FINANCIAL REPORT FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31st, 2025. ALONG WITH THE INFORMATION RELATED TO THAT. AS IS OUR PRACTICE, INCLUDED

098THE NOTES AT THE END OF THAT PACKET. ONE UPDATE AS IT RELATES TO A NEW ITEM THAT I AM CALLING OUT. THE ONE STARTING OFF WITH SCHOOL PROGRAMS, FINANCIAL REPORT, EXPENDITURE ANALYSIS, SCHOOL PROGRAMS. I AM CALLING OUT IN THE HIGH SCHOOLS THAT WE ARE SEEING AN INCREASE IN RELATION TO BUDGET AND EXPENDITURES THROUGH THE SAME POINT FOR OUR HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETICS PROGRAM. WE SHARED SOME DATA PREVIOUSLY WITH THE SCHOOL BOARD THROUGH THE EDUCATIONAL DATA THAT WAS PROVIDED EARLIER ABOUT THE NUMBER OF TEAMS AND THE STUDENTS THAT WE HAVE PARTICIPATING. IT IS GREAT TO SEE OUR PARTICIPATION LEVELS INCREASING, YOU KNOW, ACROSS THE SYSTEM. BUT THERE IS AN ATTENDANT COST WITH PROVIDING THE EXTRA OPPORTUNITIES. THAT WILL BE EXPRESSED HERE IN THE HIGH SCHOOL'S COMPONENT OF THE HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETICS COMPONENT OF OUR EXPENDITURES. THAT IS

099THE ONLY NEW THING EXPENDITURE WISE I AM CALLING OUT. ON THE REVENUE SIDE IF YOU GO TO PAGE 4 OF THE FINANCIAL REPORT ITSELF YOU WILL NOTE OF MARCH 31st, 2025 WE HAVE COLLECTED JUST OVER $34 MILLION IN STATE REVENUES. WE ARE AT THE SAME POINT LAST YEAR IT WAS $22 MILLION. LESS THAN HALF OF THE BUDGETED AMOUNT. THIS YEAR WE ARE OVER THREE QUARTERS OF OUR BUDGETED AMOUNT. LAST YEAR'S DIFFERENCE WAS COMPLETELY MADE UP IN APRIL. IT WAS JUST A TINY DIFFERENCE. FOR JANUARY THROUGH MARCH OF LAST YEAR. DUE TO THE LATE SUBMISSION OF THE REPORT. FINALLY ALSO ON THE SAME PAGE 4 THERE IS AN UPDATE TO THE PROJECTED ENDING FUND BALANCE. THAT $5 MILLION IS FROM THE FINANCIAL MODEL THAT WAS PRESENTED TO THE SCHOOL BOARD AT THE APRIL 28th MEETING. THAT

100IS STILL A PRELIMINARY NUMBER. THERE IS NO SMALL AMOUNT OF VARIBILITY TO THE TIMING AND THE AMOUNT OF THE REVENUE THAT WAS RECEIVED. AS WELL AS THE FUNDS THAT WERE EXPRESSED BETWEEN NOW AND THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR. IT WAS ALWAYS MY PERSONAL HOPE THAT IT WOULD BE HIGHER THAN $5 MILLION. I WOULD NOT EXPECT IT TO BE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT HIGHER AND THERE COULD BE EXPENDITURES I HAVE NOT ACCOUNTED FOR. THOSE ARE THE ITEMS THAT I CALLED OUT SPECIFICALLY IN THE NOTES. EVERYTHING ELSEWHERE THERE IS A VARIANCE, MAJOR VARIANCE THAT IS CALLED OUT IN THE NOTES THAT WERE PREVIOUSLY SHARED WITH THE TWO PREVIOUS FINANCIAL REPORTS, FIRST QUARTER AND SECOND QUARTER. OTHERWISE THEY ARE RELATIVELY SMALL. THEY ARE EITHER SMALL OR RELATE TO A TIMING DIFFERENCE. I KNOW THEY ARE GOING TO RESOLVE

101BY THE NEXT FINANCIAL REPORT. THAT WOULD BE THE EXTENT OF MY PLANNING REMARKS. I AM AVAILABLE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE BALANCE. DIDN'T WE LIST THE OTHER FINISHEDS ON HERE? I BELIEVE THAT WAS IN THE FINANCIAL MODEL. OH, THE FINANCIAL MODEL? YEAH. >> ALL RIGHT. FAIR ENOUGH. THANK YOU. OKAY. WE CAN GO TO 6.9. SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET AND APPROPRIATIONS. MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, I HAVE INCLUDED IN THE PACKET SEVERAL RESOLUTIONS THAT WE WERE ASKED FOR ACTION ON THIS EVENING. GENERAL FUND SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET. WE ARE RECEIVING A BIT MORE THAN I ESTIMATED LAST APRIL IN RELATION TO THE HIGH COST DISABILITY GRANT. HIGHER COSTS OF EDUCATION INDICATING OUR STUDENTS. THAT INCREASES THE OVERALL COST. I WOULD NOTE THAT GRANT IS REIMBURSING ROUGHLY 30% OF OUR ACTUAL COST IN EXCESS

102OF $30,000. THE DISTRICT FULLY ABSORBS THE COSTS. AS THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR WAS NOTING EARLIER, WE ARE LIKE THE IEP CAPS. WE ARE NOT GETTING THE SECOND WEIGHT OVER 200 OF OUR STUDENTS ON IEPs. WE DID GET MORE THAN I BUDGETED HERE FOR THE HIGH COST DISABILITY GRANT. STRONG INTEREST EARNINGS HIGHER THAN I ESTIMATED LAST SPRING. WE HAVE A FULL SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET. TRANSFER RESOLUTION FOR THE GENERAL FUND AND THE GRANT FUND. THE UNDERLYING REASONS ARE EXPLAINED IN THE RESOLUTION THAT ACCOMPANY THIS. I AM ASKING FOR ACTION THIS EVENING. AS A FINAL NOTE I WOULD ADD AT THE JUNE MEETING I WILL HAVE AN APPROPRIATIONS TRANSFER RESOLUTION FOR THE SWIM PARK, AND WE WILL BE DOING A CONFERENCE WITH ALL OTHER FUNDS AND MAKING SURE THERE ARE NO OTHER FUNDS THAT MIGHT NEED A TRANSFER APPROPRIATIONS RESOLUTION

103OR A SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET AS THE CONDITIONS WARRANT. CERTAINLY BY JUNE 30 I WILL HAVE A BIT OF INFORMATION, BUT STILL NOT COMPLETE. I WILL CERTAINLY HAVE BETTER INFORMATION THAN I HAVE NOW. I WILL STOP THERE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. ANY QUESTIONS? IT IS AN ACTION ITEM. I WILL TAKE A MOTION. I WILL MAKE THE MOTION. YES. >> I MOVE TO APPROVE THE SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET AND APPROPRIATE TRANSFER RESOLUTIONS AS PRESENTED BY ADMINISTRATION. THANK YOU. I WILL SECOND THAT. GOOD CHOICE. ALL IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION SAY AYE. AYE. >> ALL RIGHT. POLICY REVIEW. YEAH. OKAY. SOY, THIS YEAR WE HAVE CONSEENED A GROUP OF TEACHERS, STAFF AND STUDENTS TO WORK ON INTEGRATING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE INTO OUR SYSTEM. WE SPENT TIME LEARNINGLEARNING POLICIES. WE WORKED TO UPDATE EXISTING POLICIES. I BRING FOURTH THE FIVE POLICIES THAT

104WERE UPDATED AND PRESENT A NEW ONE THAT WAS PROVIDED TO US. I WILL START WITH THE NEW POLICY. IT WAS THE POLICY DEVELOPED AND ADDRESSES INDEPENDENT STUDENT USE. STUDENT USE AS PART OF CLASS. STAFF USE. PRIVACY COMPLIANCE. CONFIDENTIALITY AND VIOLATIONS. THIS IS IT. ENTIRELY NEW POLICY. IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER INTO THE DISCUSSION WE CAN. I OPEN IT UP FOR DISCUSSION. I HAVE A QUESTION. IT IS FOR DIRECTOR BILLS. DID YOU HELP TO WRITE THIS? SO, LIKELY YES, AND MOSTLY NO. I WAS PART OF THE TASK FORCE EARLY ON AND WITH OTHER THINGS I WAS NOT ABLE TO ATTEND THE LAST COUPLE OF. THIS IS THE NEW POLICY THAT WAS DEVELOPED BY OSVA. I THOUGHT IT WAS WORKING ON A MODIFIED VERSION OF THE OLS. NO. THE TASK FORCE WORKED ONON OF THE OTHER

105POLICIES. MY PRIMARY CONCERN IS IN THE FIRST SECTION. THIS IS THE INDEPENDENT STUDENT USE SECTION. THE PROBLEM THAT I HAVE IS THAT THE APPROACH TO AI IS BIAS. IT IS AN ELECTRONIC FORM OF INFORMATION. WHAT I MEAN BY THAT, AND YOU HAVE ALL HEARD THE EXAMPLE. IF HE IS DRIVING HOME WITH THE DIRECTOR AND HAS A PROJECT ON A CLASS. SHE SPENDS 40 MINUTES ON THE DRIVE TALKING ABOUT THE POLICY AND HOW TO ORGANIZE THE PAPER AND ALL OF THE THINGS. HE GOES HOME. SHE IS GONE. SHE IS NOT THERE AND GUIDING HIM. HE WRITES THE PAPER BASED ON THE INPUT. THERE IS NO EXPECTATION THAT HE CITES YOU AS THE SOIRS, AND THERE IS NO RAMIFICATION FOR IT COMING OUT IN CONVERSATION. YEAH. I TALKED TO MY MOM WHO IS THE DIRECTOR OF HEALTH

106FOR OREGON. IF HE HAD THE EXACT SAME DIALOGUE HE HAS RUN AFOUL OF POLICY AND EDUCATION. I THINK THAT IS MYOPIC AND BIASED. I WOULD LIKE THE FIRST SECTION TO SAY SOMETHING THAT THE RESTRICTIONS ARE NO MORE RESTRICTIONS FOR AI USE THAN IS APPLIED TO ANY OTHER FORM OF SUPPORT, ASSISTANCE, GUIDANCE OR INSPIRATION THAT A STUDENT COULD RECEIVE OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM. I THINK THAT AT LEAST WE HAVE A POLICY THAT IS MY THOUGHT ON THIS VERSION. I HAVE HEARD YOU SAYING THAT A FEW TIMES. IT HAS RESONATED WITH ME AROUND AI THAN WHAT I ORIGINALLY THOUGHT ABOUT AI. I THINK THAT IT IS TRUE. OR IF YOU WERE TUTORED. ABSOLUTELY. I THINK IT IS THE SAME THING. IF YOU INTERVIEW SOMEONE AND HAVE TO QUOTE THEM. YOU CAN'T PLAGUERIZE SOMEONE. IT HAS MADE ME

107THINK ABOUT THAT. WHICH SPECIFIC SECTION? YOU SAID IN THE FIRST SECTION. INDEPENDENT STUDENT USE. TEACHERS SHOULD CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING. ACCESSIBILITY OF THE PROGRAM. SPECIFIC RULES FOR THE INDEPENDENT USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MAY BE DEVELOPED BY THE TEACHER. TO ME THAT IS WHERE THE PROBLEM STARTS. THAT WILL BE APPLIED INCONSISTENTLY ACROSS CLASSROOMS AND TEACHERS AND EVEN IN THE SAME SUBJECT. IT ALLOWS TEACHERS AND LARGELY ADVOCATED IS THE STOP LIGHT. TEACHERS SAY THESE ARE RED LIGHT ASSIGNMENTS. THIS IS A YELLOW LIGHT ASSIGNMENT. YOU CAN USE AI MAYBE TO BRAINSTORM BUT NOTHING ELSE. HERE IS A GREEN LIGHT. USE AI AS WELL AS YOU CAN USE IT. IT IS THE RED LIGHT ACTIVITIES AND THE FACT THAT A TEACHER CAN TELL A STUDENT THAT YOU CAN'T USE AI ON THIS PROJECT OR IN MY CLASS. IF THAT IS

108THE APPROACH THAN IT HAS GOT TO BE NOBODY IN THE CLASS WILL TALK TO ANYTHING. YOU CAN'T HAVE A CHEMISTRY TUTOR. YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR BROTHER HOME FROM COLLEGE. NOTHING. YOUR PROPOSED RECOMMENDATION IS TO SAY YOU CAN'T BE TREATED ANY DIFFERENTLY. I THINK THAT EACH OF THE TERNLS THERE IS REALLY IMPORTANT. WHEN YOUNGER PEOPLE TALK TO OLDER PEOPLE, IT IS REALLY HARPING ON THE OLDER PERSON'S SIDE. LET ME TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS STUFF. YEAH. I JUST THINK THAT YOU HAVE TO --YEAH. THIS IS PERFECT. I PERSONALLY PAY FOR THE 4. 0, THE PREMIUM VERSION OF CHATGPT AND I TALK TO IT LIKE I WOULD TALK TO A GREEN LIGHT. YEAH. YOU CAN USE A HUMAN TUTOR. JUST THE FACT THAT IT IS NOW LLM, NOW SUDDENLY IT IS TABOO. THERE ARE RULES ABOUT IT

109THAT COULD BE TREATED DIFFERENTLY THAN A TUTOR THAT COULD BE A DOLLAR MORE THAN A SUBSCRIPTION THAT I CAN AFFORD. THERE ARE ABUSE CASES BUT I ASK IT TO TEACH ME X AND IT DOES IT AND I USE THAT TO DO THE ASSIGNMENT. I SAY I WAS TAUGHT THIS BY GPT THAN INSTEAD OF A TUTOR. YEAH. I THINK WE HAVE TO RECOGNIZE TUTORS HAVE BEEN DOING HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS FOR DECADES. PARENTS HAVE BEEN DOING HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS AND WRITING PAPERS FOR STUDENTS FOR DECADES. TRYING TO FRAME THE APPROACH AS A PURIST EDUCATIONAL SANCTITY. I DO THINK THAT WE NEED TO TEACH AI LITERACY. I WORK WITH STUDENTS AND TEACH THEM. LET ME SHOW YOU HOW TO USE AI TO GUIDE YOU LIKE A TUTOR. IF WE TEACH THEM THAT THERE IS MORE LIKELY AUDIO THEY WILL. WE

110WANT AS A PART OF AI LITERALLY FOR STUDENTS TO BE CITING WORK. IF WE CONTINUE TO HAVE A BIAS AND TREAT WORK THAT IS AUGMENTED OR SUPPORTED BY AI DIFFERENTLY WE DISINCENTIVIZE STUDENTS FROM CITING THE USE OR BEING OPEN ABOUT THE COLLABORATION. THEN WE LOSE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TEACH. DIRECTOR, MAYBE YOU MISSED THE MEETINGS BUT WE DID DISCUSS AI LITERACY PROGRAMS IN SCHOOLS AND THERE ARE SUGGESTIONS FOR THAT TOO TO HELP WITH THE ISSUE. THAT IS AWESOME. I AGREE WITH WHAT YOU ARE SAYING. THEY HAVE AN ESSAY THEY CAN EASILY CUT AND PACIFIC NORTHWEST. THERE ARE PLAGIARY ISSUES THAT I THINK ARE NOT MENTIONED. IT IS IN ANOTHER POLICY. ACADEMIC INTEGRITY. OKAY. ACADEMIC INTEGRITY. >> OKAY. I WAS GOING TO SKIP OVER TO THAT. YEAH. SINCE WE ARE IN THIS CONVERSATION. YEAH. PERFECT. WE HAVE

111MADE HEADWAY IN THE TASK FORCE. WE ARE LOOKING TO GROW I WILL WORK WITH YOU TO WORK ON THE LANGUAGE. IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT? ANY AR ASSOCIATED WITH IT? THIS IS, YOU KNOW, SOMETHING THAT TAF WOULD NEED TO BE TRAINED ON? THEY DID NOT SUGGEST AN AR. I THINK THIS IS GROWING IN EVERY FIELD SO FAST. I WOULD RATHER LEARN HOW TO USE IT THAN TO TAKE OVER. EVERYONE'S GOAL. I AM GOING TO SKIP OVER TO ACADEMIC INTEGRITY BECAUSE IT FLOWS FROM THE CONVERSATION. THIS POLICY IKI ADDRESSES THE EXPECTATIONS THAT STUDENTS MAINTAIN ACADEMIC INTEGRITY WHILE USING AI. THAT IS THE PART THAT WE RISE AS A TASK FORCE. IT ACKNOWLEDGES STUDENTS MAY ACCESS EXTERNAL RESOURCES INCLUDING AI AND ONLINE TOOLS IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH TESTING AND ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS AND HIGHLIGHTS

112THE STUDENTS HIGHLIGHTING SOURCES THAT ARE NOT THEIR OWN INCLUDING AI GENERATED CONTENT. THIS MIGHT BE ANOTHER CONCERN. TO WHAT EXTENT DO THEY NEED TO CITE THE USE OF AI? YEAH. IF THEY ARE NOT COPY AND PACIFIC NORTHWEST -- PASTING TEXT IT IS NOT PLAGUERIZING. --PLAGERIZING. YOU KNOW, IT TALKS ABOUT THE STUDENTS CAN WORK WITH OTHER STUDENTS, RIGHT. SO, WE ADDED IN A COMPONENT ABOUT USING EXTERNAL RESOURCES. WE INCLUDED AI, AND IN MAKING SURE IT IS IN THE SAME MANNER THAT IS OUTLINED BY THE ASSESSMENT OR THE ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS. THAT IS THE ONE CHANGE THERE. AND FOR NUMBER ONE, WE ADDED INCLUDING AI SO THAT SAYING STUDENTS WILL NOT REPRESENT THE WORK OF OTHERS, INCLUDING AI AS THEIR OWN. WE ADDED ANOTHER LINE. STUDENTS WILL NOT SUBMIT ACADEMIC WORK WITHOUT PROPER CITATIONS. THERE IS A CONVENTION

113FOR CITING AI. I THINK THESE POLICIES ARE ROCK SOLID. MY COMMENT WAS ON THE OSVA VERSION. IT MAY SEEM THERE IS AN INCONSISTENCY TO SAY THAT WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO USE RESOURCES INCLUDING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE WHEN IT IS IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH TESTING OR ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS. THAT IS WHERE I THINK IT GETS TRICKY. BUT I THINK THAT THE LANGUAGE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IN THE FIRST POLICY AND THIS LANGUAGE IS FINE. AS LONG AS WE ARE TELLING EVERY STUDENT NOT TO TALK TO YOUR PARENT ABOUT THE HISTORY PAPER, I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM TELLING STUDENTS NOT TO USE CHATGPT. IT IS THAT FRONT PIECE WHICH IS THE DRIVER. I THINK ALL OF IT IS SOUND. OKAY. THE QUESTION THAT I HAVE ABOUT THE NEW NUMBER TWO THAT WE PUT IN. IF A KID IS WRITING

114A HISTORY PAPER, AND THE DAD SAYS IT IN HIS OWN WORDS AND THE KID QUOTES IT THEY ARE GOING TO JUST PUT IT IN. LIKE A LEARNING MODEL, A TEACHER CAN GO AND PUT IN THE TEXT THE STUDENT WROTE AND FIND RECORD OF THE AI. IF IT IS SEVERAL WORDS OR MORE. ARE WE GOING TO HOLD STUDENTS TO THE STANDARD OF IF YOU ASK CHATGPT TO TEACH YOU SOMETHING ABOUT X AND YOU TAKES IT DESCRIPTION FROM ANOTHER HUMAN BEING SPEAKING TO YOU ARE WE GOING TO HOLD IT TO THE SEVEN WORD STANDARD? THIS IS AN IMPERSERVE SYSTEM. IT IS DIFFICULT FOR EVERY INSTANCE. I THINK WHAT WILL HAPPEN IS THAT AS WE AS A LEARNING COMMUNITY START TO GRAPPLE WITH THE INCLUSION OF AI INTO OUR ECOSYSTEM, I THINK THAT CULTURES AND DISPOSITIONS TOWARDS A

115LOT OF THIS WILL EVOLVE. I THINK THAT RIGHT NOW IF YOUR DAD GIVES YOU THE QUOTE FOR THE PAPER. YOU SHOULD CITE IT. THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT NOBODY IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO SOURCE THAT. PLUG IT IN AN ENGINE. THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. THEY ARE IMPERFECT AND NOT ALWAYS ACCURATE. WE HAVE TO RELY ON THIS TO FIND THE CHEATERS. IF YOU QUOTE SOMETHING, YOU CITE IT. WE NEED TO TEACH STUDENTS WHAT IT MEANS, AND THERE IS NO HARM. THERE IS NO NEGATIVE CONNOTATION FOR CITING THIS BRILLIANT ANALOGY CHATGPT CAME UP WITH IN HELPING ME UNDERSTAND THERMODYNAMICS. WHY IS THAT BAD? SORRY. REALLY GOOD EXPLANATION. I GRAY WITH YOUR POINT, BUT IT IS IMPORTANT FOR THE STUDENTS TO UNDERSTAND AND ALSO EDUCATORS. THE STUDENTS WILL ONLY UNDERSTAND THAT IF IT COMES TO THEM

116WITH NO CONNOTATION FROM THE EDUCATOR. ABSOLUTELY. I GUESS WE WILL HAVE A REVISED POLICY. THERE ARE FOUR MORE. YOU SKIPPED SOME. SO, I WILL GO TO THE POLICY EHB, CYBER SECURITY DATA PRIVACY. IT WAS SPECIFICALLY TO ENSURE THE USE OF AI IN PLATFORMS AND IN TOOLS THAT UTILIZE AI UPHOLD THE PRIVACY REQUIREMENTS THAT ARE IN THE POLICY. YOU WILL SEE THAT WE BASICALLY ADDED THE AI USE OF AI OR PLATFORMS INTO THE VARIOUS ASPECTS REGARDING THE INFORMATION CONFIDENTIALITY. INTEGRITY. INFORMATION AVAILABILITY. I WAS IN THE GROUP THAT WORKED ON THE POLICY, AND I WANT TO SAY THAT DR. SCHULTZ DID A LOT OF GREAT WORK ON IT. THERE IS MORE TO THAT. NO. THE NEXT POLICY IS IIBG RESPONSIBLE RUSE OF TECHNOLOGY REVISED TO INCLUDE AI AS A FORM OF TECHNOLOGY THAT REQUIRES RESPONSIBLE USE AND

117ESTABLISHES THE EXPECTATIONS THAT STAFF MAINTAIN AI LITERALLY TO ENSURE RESPONSIBLE USE AND ENHANCEMENT OF STUDENT LEARNING. THAT WILL OF COURSE REQUIRE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT. NEXT POLICY IIBGA. REVISED TO ENSURE AI IS INCLUDED IN ADDRESSING THE INTERNET CHILDRENS PROTECTION ACT INCLUDING EDUCATING MINORS AND STUDENTS ABOUT ADDRESSING APPROPRIATE ONLINE BEHAVIOR, DENYING MINORS ACCESS TO INAPPROPRIATE MATTER ON AI PLATFORMS THAT ARE NOT AUTHORIZED FOR USE. ENSURING THE SAFETY AND STEWART OF MINORS USING AI CHATBOTS. ADDRESSING THE USE OF AI TOOLS, APPROVAL AND OVERSIGHT. MONITORING AND COMPLIANCE AND STAFF TRAINING AND GUIDANCE. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS? OKAY. I HAVE COVERED ACADEMIC INTEGRITY. THE LAST POLICY IS EDUCATIONAL EQUITY EMPHASIZING THE IMPORTANCE OF IDENTIFYING AND ELIMINATING POLICIES AND PRACTICES WHICH HINDER STUDENTS SUCCESS. TO ENSURE AI IS NOT A BARRIER. A NEW LINE WAS DDED TO THE SECTION. ADDRESSING THE ACHIEVEMENT

118OF EDUCATIONAL EQUITY FOR EVERY STUDENT, THE RESPONSIBLE INTEGRATION OF AI TO SUPPORT EDUCATIONAL EQUITY. ACCESS AND STUDENT. DATA PRIVACY AND PROTECTION. INCLUSIVE CURRICULUM AND ASSESSMENT AND COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT. THAT IS IT. STAFF MEMBERS AND STUDENTS THEY DID A LOT OF HARD WORK AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS. THANK YOU. CONTINUE THE WORK. ALL RIGHT. >> THANK YOU. 8:30 IS LATE. SCHOOL BOARD CALENDAR, 2025-26. IN FRONT OF YOU IS THE DRASTICAL DEAR FOR 2025-26.
