Um I will say um I I implore the county council and the county executive to urgently enact property tax assessment reform. This is something that is I I'm saying as an individual. I'm not representing my board in this statement, but I can say that our county by not reforming property tax assessments and relying on a base model, base year model where we do it like once in 13 years, our county is failing our

012schools and it's failing our municipalities. That has to happen. We've done everything we can to respond to a property tax assessment system that is broken. And we're in good shape.

All right, great. Um, one of the items mentioned expanding special education programming at Kerr. Can you just talk a little bit about what the needs are there? Sure. Uh, we were looking at our needs across the district and based on student enrollment, it made sense to add another classroom to Kurr Elementary and the reason Kerr Elementary was chosen is it matches the home building of most of the students that um we

025needed to accommodate. So, it keeps them in their home building for the most part. And I know we had made some adjustments to some of our other um per hour wage scales. Is this an adjustment uh upward for this group as well or the compensation adjustments for new for those service workers? Uh it is a slight uh change. It's approximately a 3% increase for the positions. Um but there are some changes within the group. some employees are being moved from one classification to another and then some uh employees uh because they're taking on more work so they're taking on a different classification and um so in those cases they may see slightly greater than 3% but it's because their job responsibilities are changing too. Thank you. Sure. Any other questions? Are we fully staffed for

026the extended school year program at this time? I believe we are fully staffed for the extended school year program. Great. As long as this all gets approved tonight. So yes. All right. I just want to once again thank the retirees for their service and welcome these new teachers and hope they will have many years of success with us in Fox Chapel. Any other comments?

Uh, I just wanted to take a moment to express gratitude to all of the members of our school board on behalf of the

031Fox Chapel Area Educators Association for all of the hard work that you do to support the tradition of academic excellence here at Fox Chapel for all of our students in a time when we as educators face so much uncertainty based on, you know, changes uh nationally as well as even in neighboring school districts uh with their school boards. We realize how fortunate we are to have you all. We appreciate your genuine collaboration, your transparency, the fact that you value the professional judgment and expertise of our educators. And we want to thank you for being so responsible and transparent in your stewardship of our district's resources, especially with the number of ongoing construction projects that are occurring now and what you have planned for the future. I don't know um that everyone is aware of how

032much work you all do to keep the district running and to make sure that every student in this district has every opportunity available to them. And with that being said, it has been a lot of fun to have board members participating with us. Again, many might not know that. Uh whether it was at graduation yesterday, yeah, it was yesterday. And then um at the elementary walk, um which was a new tradition that we just started this year. And so we look forward to that continued collaboration with you all because we know that we are really fortunate to have you all in our corner. So thank you and have a nice summer. Thank you. Time for board comments, Mr. Good. I had the privilege of going to graduation and being up on the stage and and

033uh it's a tradition that I enjoy. Uh it's great to see it's great to see everyone's success and to uh be able to participate in it. Miss Zitch, I'll second that. Graduation always fills the cup. Um it's an incredible um thing to witness and um it was really exciting to see where everyone's headed to and what they have going. Um I'll also say that we are losing some Titans in the classroom this year. Um, and I just want to express again my gratitude um, to those who have touched the lives of my children and other children in our district. Um, it's a real honor and um, we will be sad to see them go. Thank you, Mrs. Cooper. I hope everybody has a safe and fun summer. Uh, thanks Miss Min for your comments. That

034was very nice. Um, also for the board, just some things to think about. We're about halfway through our um, year of where we travel around. It looks like we have two other non- high school locations coming up. When we talked about it and voted on it, we talked about spending our time in purposeful ways um in other buildings and that really hasn't happened thus far. Um I think it's a bigger cost of the school district and the tech side isn't as good for people listening at home when we don't have it in this room. Um so that was a conversation we had sixish months ago. Um, so I just want everybody to think about that especially when it's time to set the agenda for next year and where we are meeting. Thank you, Mr. Hamilton.

035No following. Dr. Hasselorn, congratulations to the graduates. Yesterday was a fantastic time to see them enjoy their success with their families. Um, thank you to the teachers for a job well done this year. I hope you enjoy the summer. Um the first day of school will be here in a blink. And um also I we had mentioned it before, but just a a I think we had a successful year in in committees at least on the academic committee that I was part of and and got a lot of good work accomplished and look forward to the next school year. Thank you, Mrs. Lynch. Uh I think it's a faux paw to mention the next school year when we have literally not if I finish that one yet. But uh anyway, um I just want to

036say an extra special um thank you to our teachers this year on their hard work. It never ceases to amaze me the things that our students are accomplishing. Um be it in the 5,000 clubs that are available to them at the high school. Um but encouraging just really incredible skill building. uh when our students walk into a room, they can speak clearly, they can share information, they have life experience that sets them apart in really unique ways and um I just want to take a minute to really value that that comes directly from uh the people in our buildings who are shaping them. So, thank you. Thank you, Miss Finley. Thank you to parents, teachers, and kids for a wonderful year. May you all enjoy the tunnel. Thank you, Mr. Frank. I will echo the

037comments about graduation. What? It was excellent. Speeches were great. Um, short, purposeful, everything was fantastic. And for the hundreds and hundreds of people in that audience who never saw our choir or our orchestra, they were they had to be delighted with with the excellence. And um the senior visits to the elementary school last year. I've heard comments from teachers from from seniors that it was excellent. So, it was a it was a really a great idea carried through what did it cost? Four buses or something, but it was excellent. And another idea I'd like to float is maybe we could ask seniors, excuse me, who their most impactful teacher was during their 12 years, maybe 13 years, and and h and have those seniors in uh think about inviting them to graduation. Um it it

038might serve serve a great purpose. And thank you. Thank you very much. Um, thank you, Mrs. Macken, for the kind words to the board. We um are very grateful for our teachers and staff as well and all of the hard work that they do every day and every school year. Um, and congratulations to our graduates. I hope everyone has a very safe and relaxing summer. And could I have a motion to adjurnn? So moved. Second. All in favor? I meeting adjourned.
