WHAT WAS YOUR BIGGEST OBSTACLE TO OVER COME? I KNOW WHEN YOU'RE WORKING TOGETHERS A A TEAM IT IS TRULY -- SO MANY MOVING PARTS AND YOU HAVE TO RELY ON EACH OTHER SO MUCH, THE STRENGTH THE TIMING AND EVERYTHING, SO WHAT WOULD YOU SAY WAS MAYBE A BIGGER CHALLENGE IN YEAR OR -- >> I FEEL LIKE WE GOT TO THIS POINT WHERE I HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED BEFORE WHERE WE WERE SO CONSISTENT WITH EVERYTHING WAS GOING WELL BUT IT WASN'T QUITE GOING GREAT AND IT WAS LIKE, EVERYTHING WAS HITTING AND NOTHING WAS FALLING BUT WE NEEDED TO PUSH THAT MUCH HARDER I THINK THAT'S THE BIGGEST THING TO GET OVER WAS THAT EVERYONE HAD TO PUT IN JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE EFFORT SO IT COULD BE WOW AND NOT JUST WOW. >> HOW DID YOU GET THERE? DID YOU -- >> I THINK PROBABLY JUST EVERYONE DOING THEIR PART AND WE WOULD TALK ABOUT THE ROUTINE OR JUST LIKE, YELLING FOR EACH OTHER, I THINK THE SUPPORT ON THE FLOOR DURING THE ROUTINE REALLY MADE THE ROUTINES MORE FUN AND EVEN THOUGH GETTING OVER IT BEING FUN AND MAKING A LITTLE ERROR IT WAS FUN AND ALSO CONSISTENTLY GOOD AND GETTING TO THAT POINT [INDISCERNIBLE] YOU DEFINITELY HAD SOME YELLING ON THE SIDELINES, ESPECIALLY YOUR COACH BECAUSE SHE'S IN A FEW VIDEOS JUST ABOUT TO FALL OVER WITH HER EXCITEMENT.

I DID -- CAN I SAY SOMETHING? FIRST OF ALL SHOUT SOUTH OUT TO MY FORMER SECOND GRADER AND THE SECOND THING IS I HAVE A FOREIGN EXCHANGE STUDENT, AND THANK YOU COACH ALLY AND ALL THE CHEER SQUAD FOR BEING SO WELCOMING TO HER, SHE'S NEVER CHEERED BEFORE, THEY DON'T HAVE HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS IN ITALY AND SHE'S HAD A PHENOMENAL YEAR SO FAR AND YOU'VE MADE HER DAY, WEEK, YEAR WHATEVER AND I APPRECIATE THE WARM AND WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT THAT YOU CREATED. THANK YOU. >> CULTURE WINS. >> CONGRATULATIONS AND IF WE CAN HAVE BOTH TEAMS UP HERE WE'LL GET A PICTURE WITH EVERYBODY. [3. Public Comment] [00:15:18] >>> NEXT UP WE HAVE A PUBLIC COMMENT, 3.01. THIS IS AN ITEM WHERE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY CAN SIGN UP TO SPEAK ON ASSIGNMENT ITEMS ON OUR AGENDA AND WE HAVE ONE SPEAK CANCER WE WILL IMINVITED HER UP, SHANNON FIELDS. >>> HI. I'M HERE TO SPEAK REGARDING AGENDA ITEM 6.01 REGARDING A POLICY EO 6.04 AND RECORDINGS ON SCHOOL ROT. THE PRECISELY CLEARLY STATES THE PUBLIC HAS A RIGHT TO REPORT PUBLIC SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS WHICH I KNOW ARE STREAMED LIVE AND AVAILABLE AN ORIFER. I WOULD I'D LIKE TO SUGGEST THE WORDING BE ALLEGEDDED TO INCLUDE THE WRIGHT RIGHT TO RECORD THE WORK SESSIONS WHICH WHILE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC ARE OFTEN HELD DURING THE BUSINESS DAY AND ARE NOT STREAMS TO MY KNOWLEDGE. A SECOND ISSUE RELATES TO VIDEO RECORDING ON SCHOOL PROPERTY. THE POLICY STATES THERE IS EC LEGITIMATE EXPECTATION OF PRIVACY IN THE NON-PRIVATE AREA OF THE SCHOOL CORPORATION PROPERTY WHICH BASED ON THE WORDING INCLUDES CLASSROOMS. SO THE SCHOOL CORPORATION HAS THE RIGHT BUT NOT AN OBLIGATION TO RECORD THIS CLASSROOMS. THE POLICY ALSO STATE THAT EMPLOYEES CAN MAKE AUDIO OR VIDEO REPORTS THIS THE CLASSROOM WHILE AT THE SAME TIME STUDENTS AND PARENT CAN ONLY RECORD WITH PRIOR WRITTEN APPROVAL FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT. SO THERE IS A BIT OF DISCONNECT, THERE A POLICY AS TO HOW THE SUPERINTENDENT WOULD HANDLE THE APPROVAL PROCESS? ARE PARENTS PROHIBITED FROM REPORTING DURING OPEN HOUSE AND IN SITUATIONINGS WHERE THERE MAY BE QUESTIONABLE ACTIVITY OCCURRING IN A CLASSROOM IS THERE A PROCEDURE OUT LINING HOW THE DISTRICT WILL INVESTIGATE CLASSROOM ISSUES RAISED AND GUARANTEE TRANSPARENCY ABSENT A STUDENT'S ABILITY TO RECORD IT. THE SAME QUESTION APPLIES TO MEETINGS WITH PARENTS WHERE AUDIO-RECORDED IS PERMITTED WITH THE APPROVAL OF THE SUPERINTENDENT. THE POLICY TALKS ABOUT PARENTS HAVING TO PROVIDE REPORTING EQUIPMENT BUT COULDN'T THEY JUST CAPTURE AUDIO WITH THEIR CELL PHONE? IF SO USE PARENT FRIENDLY WORDING INSTEAD OF MAKING IT SEEM ONEROUSFUL THE FINAL LINE STATES THE SUPERINTENDENT DESIGNEE WILL DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN PROCEDURES TO IMPLEMENT THIS PRECISELY BUT THOSE PROCEDURES ARE NOT INCLUDED. THE THOSE HAVE COMMUNITY IN PUT AND ARE THEY SUBJECT TO BOARD APPROVAL IN THOSE PROVIDERS SHOULD ERR ON THE SIDE OF TRANSPARENCY. FINAL AT THE SAME TIME THE DISTRICT IS PROPOSING TO RESCIND POLICIES REGARDING FACILITIES DEVELOPMENT PRIORITIES; PLANNING ENROLLMENT PROJECTIONS NOTING THAT EACH OF THE EXISTING POLICIES ARE NOT LEGALLY REQUIRED. I WOULD HOPE THE DISTRICT DOES NOT HAVE POLICIES SIMPLY IN ORDER TO MEET LEGAL REQUIREMENTSES BUT ALSO THE MEET COMMUNITY EXPECTATIONS AND EVERYONE AT A HIGH LEVEL. A DISTRICT OF 20,000 PLUS STUDENTS THAT MAY BE PROPOSING A REFER REMEMBER DUMB OF FUNDING WOULD WANT SUCH POLICIES IN PLACE IN ORDER TO BUILD CONFIDENCE THAT THERIACKING AS GOOD STEWARDS OF THE FUNDS PROVIDED TO THE DISTRICT BY THE STATE AND LOCAL TAXPAYERS. THANK YOU. [4.

[5. Information Items] UP IS THE RETURN TO STRUCTURE REVIEW, THIS IS JUST A REMINDER TO THE COMMUNITY THAT WE'RE NOT NECESSARILY CHANGING ANYTHING, WE'RE STILL IN PERSON, THIS IS JUST A MANDATORY ANNUAL REVIEW THAT WE'RE REQUIRED TO DO DUE TO FEDERAL FUNDING, SO I WOULD WELCOME DR. KEGLY. >>> GOOD EVENING AND I THINK YOU COVERED EVERYTHING I WAS GOING TO SAY, SO NO, WE ACTUALLY DID [00:25:01] HAVE SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO THE PLAN, MOST OF IT IS ROUTINE LANGUAGE ABOUT SOME OF THE BULLETS I HAVE YOU HAVE THERE, JUST ROUTINE PRACTICES, THINGS WE HAD BEFORE ABOUT HAND WASHING OR REGISTERERS TO ISOLATION ROOMS, THINGS THAT WE WERE DOING ON A REGULAR BASIS DURING THE HEIGHT OF THE PANDEMIC. PLEXIGLASS BARRIERS WE'VE DEPLOYED THOSE TO ALL OF OUR SCHOOLS, MANY OF THOSE IF NOT ALMOST ALL OF THEM ARE DOWN. SO EMPLOYEES ARE USING THEM AS THEY FEEL LIKE THEY NEED TO JUST LIKE SOME OF OUR FOLKS ARE DOING WITH MASKS. THE OTHER THING THAT'S NOT ON THIS LIST THAT WE ARE GOING TO MOVE FROM THE WEBSITE IS THE COVID DASHBOARD, WE DO NOT HAVE THE NEED ON A REGULAR BASIS TO BE REPORTING THE NUMBERS THAT WE HAVE. AND THAT FALLS IN LINE WITH WHAT OUR HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND MOST OTHER SCHOOL DISTRICTINGS ARE DOING. IT'S NOT THAT WORLD WAR WE'RE NOT CONTINUING TO TRACK THAT INFORMATION IT'S JUST NOT AT A LEVEL WE REPORT OUT, IT'S MORE IN ROUTINE LIKE OTHER ILLNESSES WOULD BE. AS YOU MENTIONED THIS IS PART OF A REQUIREMENT THAT WE HAVE TO DO WITH FUNDING, WE HAVE TO DO ONE MORE REPORTING LIVE REVIEW BY JUNE 24 SO WE'LL TAKE THAT UP IN ONE OF OUR JUNE BOARD MEETINGS. >> AND NEXT UP WE HAVE THE LANTERN ROAD ELEMENTARY PROJECT UPDATE. WE HAVE MR. RICE. >> GOOD EVENING. FACILITY HAS BEEN WORKING WITH CSL ARCHITECTS AND PEPPER CONSTRUCTION ON REDESIGNING LANTERN ROAD AND WE'VE BEEN MEETING BIWEEKLY AND BRINGING IN STAKEHOLDER AS WE REDESIGN AND MAKE SURE THE RENOVATION WILL COMPLETELY RENOVATE THE SCHOOL AND MAKE IT AMAZING AND UP-TO-DATE. ON NOVEMBER 17 PEPPER CONSTRUCTION HAD AN INITIAL BID OPENING FOR THE SKYLIGHTS, SO WE BID THAT FIRST AND THE BID CAME IN UNDERBUDGET, IN FEBRUARY WHEN THE -- SORRY IN JANUARY THE REST OF THE PROJECT WILL BID AND IN FEBRUARY WE'LL BRING BACK THE GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE FOR YOUR APPROVAL BUT WE WANTED TO PROVIDE AN UPDATE. I HAVE BRAD IN THE AUDIENCE IF YOU WANT TO ASK ABOUT THE DESIGN CHOICES BUT FOR NOW WE ARE LOOKING TO BE ON BUDGET AND RENOVATING AND OPENING UP ON TIME IN 2024. I DON'T HAVE ACCESS BUT -- >>> IS THERE -- THERE'S NO CHANGES ON THE FLOOR PLAN? EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE GOING WELL? >> THE FLOOR PLAN IS SIMILAR TO WHAT WE HAVE HAD SHOWN BEFORE. IS THERE'S A FEW TWEAKS BUT THERE'S ALWAYS SMALL TWEAKS AND WE'RE GOING TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY IS HAPPY BEFORE WE GO IT FOR BID. >>> THAT DISMAY A NEW -- ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE EXPLANATION, THAT HALLWAY DOESN'T GO ALL THE WAY THROUGH ON THE BOTTOM LEFT, THAT A NEW ITERATION OF THIS OR IS THAT HOW IT'S ALWAYS BEEN AND I DIDN'T NOTICE IT? >> DANIELLE? >> PUT THE MIKE ON. >> IT'S HOW IT'S ALWAYS BEEN IN THE DRAWING. >> AND NEW BRITON WAS NOT DONE LIKE THAT, WAS IT? >> IT WAS NOT, IN A DEBRIEF WE ASKED WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN DONE BET CANCER THEY ADDED SECURITY DOORS SO WE CAN COMPARTMENTIZE THIS BUILDING AND MAKE IT A SAFER ENVIRONMENT SO THAT IF THERE'S EVER AN ISSUE THE DOORS WILL SHUT SO ADDING THAT HALLWAY ALLOWED US TO CARPAL COMPARTMENE THAT WING. >>> AND ONCE AGAIN THEY ARE THE GUINEA PIG. THAT'S GREAT, THANK YOU. >>> THANK YOU SO MUCH. NEXT UP 5.03 WE HAVE MS. OGDEN AND MS. DOWLING -- NO? JUST MS. DOWLING? >> KAREN IS HERE FOR MY HEAVY WORK. YOU CAN COME UP IF YOU WOULD LIKE. >> I THINK SHE WAS HOPING YOU WOULD SAY SHE DOESN'T NEED TO COME UP. I'M SORRY I ALREADY SAID YOUR NAME. >> GOOD EVENING, WE WANTED TO PROVIDE YOU WITH A LITTLE BUILT OF A FINANCIAL UPDATE BECAUSE YOU HEARD US TALK ABOUT FOOD SERVICE, I KNOW IN THE LAST 18 MONTH SO THAT'S THE PURPOSE OF THIS HERE TODAY BUT I'M GOING TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL END AND TELL YOU IT'S ALL GOOD NEWS SO LET'S JUST START WITH THAT. IS JUST FOR THE BENEFIT OF EVERYBODY HERE YOU MAY RECALL [00:30:06] THE FOOD SERVICE FUND WAS A FUND THAT PAID EVERYBODY LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE DID BUT OBVIOUSLY THEIR REVENUES STOPPED. AND SO THAT'S WHY THEY WERE IMPACTED PARTICULARLY MORE SO THAN OTHER FUNDS. ON THE NEXT SLIDE WE'LL REVIEW IN 2021 IF YOU'LL REMEMBER WE HAD A 3 MILLION-DOLLAR TEMPORARY LOAN TO THE FOOD SERVICE FUND, WE WERE PAID THAT AT THE END OF THE YEAR AND IN THE ENTIRE YEAR IN 2021 ALL MEALS WERE FREE IF THEY OPTED. THE REIMBURSEMENT IS ALMOST I BELIEVE 2-DOLLARS HIGHER THAN WHAT OUR PER PAY MEAL CO-IS SO THAT HAD A PARTICULAR IMPACT ON US. IN 2022, WE THEN ONLY REQUIRED A 2 MILLION-DOLLAR TEMPORARY LOAN WHICH IS PREDOMINANTLY THOUGHT ABOUT HIGHER REIMBURSEMENT SO WE WERE MANGING HEAD WAY TO GET EXPENDITURES AND BALANCE AND FOR THIS YEAR WE HAD FREE MEALS THROUGH 2022. IN 2023 WE'RE ACTUALLY NOT GOING TO REQUIRE A TEMPORARY LOAN FOR THE FOOD SERVICE FUND, MS. MADISON RUNS THE CASH FLOWS FOR THIS FUND AND SO THIS IS AN ESTIMATED BALANCE AT THE END OF DECEMBER, WHICH SHOWS THEY SHOULD HAVE JUST OVER -- JUST UNDER 2.8 MILLION IN CASH ON HAPPENED, THAT IS AN ESTIMATE I BELIEVE, WE'RE NOT THROUGH THE MONTH OF DECEMBER YET BUT WHAT WE KNOW IS WE'RE NOT GOING TO REQUIRE A TEMPORARY LOPE TO OPERATE THIS FUND AS WE HAVE FOR THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS AGO. SO I THINK THE BIG QUESTION BECOMES AS WE'VE TALKED ABOUT ON THE NEXT SLIDE -- THANK YOU. WHAT ARE DIFFERENT? SO FIRST OF ALL WE KNOW THE HIGHER REIMBURSEMENT WAS BIG FOR US, ALSO OUR PARTICIPATION WAS RUNNING AT A HIGHER RATE THAN NORMAL WITH THE FREE MEALS. ROUGHLY ABOUT TEN PERCENT. IT LOOKS LIKE WHEN WE PICK SOME MOMENTS IN TIME FOR 2021 GOING TO THE VENN OF 2022 WE WERE RUNNING JUST OVER SIXTH TWO PERCENT ON AVERAGE FOR LUNCH, JUST EVER 17 PERCENT FOR BREAKFAST, IF WE LOOK AT THAT RIGHT NOW WE'RE JUST OVER 51 PERCENT ON AVERAGE AND JUST AROUND SEVEN PERCENT ON BREAKFAST, SO CLEARLY THOSE IMPACTED OUR PARTICIPATING WHERE IT'S ROUGHLY TEN PERCENT OF OUR FAMILY WERE PARTICIPATING IN MEALS. WE HAVE ALSO EXPANDED CATERING OPTIONS SINCE AND I KNOW THEY'VE WORKED WITH EMILY TO GET SOME BRANDING AND SOME THINGS DONE, THOSE ARE REALLY ALL FOR OUR OWN INTERNAL FUNCTIONS BUT IN REALITY IT'S IMPORTANT LIKE THEY'VE CATERED GAME DAY AND THEY ARE HIGHLY CAMABLE AND CAN PRODUCE -- THEY'RE NOT SUBJECT TO THE FDA REGULATIONS. AND STAFFING AND I SAY THIS BECAUSE WE'VE HAD TO BECOME -- NOT REALLY WE, THEY HAVE TO BECOME CREATIVE WITH STAFFING BECAUSE OF THE STORAGES IN STAFF THAT THEY HAD AND WHAT THAT HAS REQUIRED IS TAKING A MORE STRATEGIC LOOK AT HOW THEY STAFF, HOW THEY'RE UTILIZING STAFF AND THE REALITY IS IF YOU DON'T E-HAVE THE STAFFING YOU'RE GOING TO SEE LOWER EXPENDITURES, AND I THINK THE SUPPLY CHAIN IS A COMPONENT BECAUSE WE'RE LOOKING AT HOW WE HAD TO LIMIT MENU OFFERINGS SO IT'S NOT ONE SINGLE FACTOR BUT I WOULD SAY YOUR LARGEST CONTRIBUTOR IS THAT FEDERAL REIMBURSEMENT RATE AS WELL AS THAT INCREASE IN OUR PARTICIPATION. GOING FORWARD FOR FOOD SERVICE LOOKING AT JUST THE FINANCIAL END, ZACH AND HER TEAM ARE GOING TO CONTINUE TO, PAM CATERING OPTIONS, THEY'RE WORKING ON A FOREIGNLATION TO RIGHT SIZE THEIR STAFF AS WELL AS THEIR FLY SUPPLY ORDERING, THEY'RE WORKING THROUGH -- WE HAVE HAD SCENARIOS WHERE WE HAVE GOTTEN AWAY FROM THREE WEEK MENU ROTATIONS AND WE'RE GOING TO GET BACK DO TO THOSE BECAUSES THAT AN IMPACT ON PARTICIPATION AND AS WELL AS THE REVENUES COMPLETE SUPPORT THE E EXPENDITURES AND INDEPENDENTLY WE WANT THE REVENUES REMEMBER RATED TO SUPPORT THE FUND, SO THE BITTER THEY DO THAT OPENS UP OPTIONS TO ABLE TO BE FLEXIBLE WITH THINGS WE DO WITH STAFFING BUT ULTIMATELY IT SHOULD SELF SUSTAIN, AND KAREN HAS ALSO MADE A POINT TO EDUCATE HER MANAGERS MORE ABOUT THE FINANCIALS AND THEIR STAKE IN THE ORANGE, WHEN YOU DON'T SHARE THAT INFORMATION WITH FOLKS SOMETIMES IT'S HARD FOR THEM TO OWN IT SO THAT'S A PROCESS I KNOW IT WILL BE ONGOING BUT IT'S RENDERED GOOD [00:35:03] RESULTS FOR HER THUS FAR. THAT IS THE END OF MY COMMENTS BUT WE'RE REALLY GLAD KAREN IS HERE AND NO DISRESPECT TO THE PRIOR DIRECTOR, NOT MEASUREMENT THAT WAY IT'S NICE WHEN YOU HAVE SOMEONE WHO'S COME OUT OF AROUND OWNER AND SEES THE BUSINESS SIDE BECAUSE FOOD SERVICE IS INVOLVE A BUSINESS SO WE'RE GLAD TO HAVE HER AND WE'RE MAKING A LOT OF POSITIVE HEADWAY. >>> I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT STAFFING AND -- I'M SORRY, AND I KNOW IT WAS BROUGHT UP LAST TIME YOU GAVE A PRESENTATION BUT THERE WAS A DISCUSSION ABOUT STUDENTS POSSIBLY STAFFING THE FOOD SERVICE POSITIONS AND I WAS THINKING IN PARTICULAR IN THE CCAS, THE COFFEE AREA THAT -- AS FAR AS I KNOW THAT HAS NOT BEEN OPEN SINCE COVID, CORRECT? >> THAT'S CORRECT, NEITHER HIGH SCHOOL HAS THE COFFEE SHOPS OPEN BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE THE STAFF. >> AND IS THERE A CONSIDERS BECAUSE I DO WE EMPLOY STUDENTS AS LIFE GUARDS, IS THERE A CONSIDERATION TO HAVE STUDENTS STAFF THAT NORTHWESTERN? >> WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW IS THAT WE MEET WITH OUR SAG GROUP, THE SUPERINTENDENT STUDENT VOYEUR GROUP AND ONE OF THE REQUESTS AT THE HIGH SCHOOLS THAT HAS COME UP IS IF WE CAN HAVE YOU COME TO ONE OF OUR MEETINGS, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE YOU GO TO A MEETING WITH US AND THEY WANT TO TALK ABOUT IF THERE ARE WAYS THAT THEY CAN EITHER WORK OR DO SERVICE WORK OR WORK AND GET PAID, LOOKING AT THEIR SCHEDULES THE PRINCIPAL WAS OPEN TO THE IDEA SO WE ARE GOING TO HAVE YOU COME TO A MEETING WITH US AND TALK ABOUT THAT. >> WE TALKED ABOUT THAT A LITTLE BIT AT THE THANKSGIVING MEAL. >> THERE HAVE ALSO BEEN SOME REQUESTS TO ALLOW THOSE TO BE OPERATEED END OF THE FOOD SERVICE DEPARTMENT, THAT IS A TRICKIER IDEA BECAUSE ANYTHING YOU SERVE 30 MINUTES BEFORE OR AFTER IS SUPPOSED TO BE IN LINE WITH U.S.D.A. GUIDELINES SO IT IS SPACE -- I KNOW THEY WANT TO OPEN IT BUT IT ISN'T JUST AS SIMPLE AS CAN WE STAFF STUDENTS AND THEY CAN OPERATE THEIR OWN COFFEE SHOP, IT'S A LOT MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT AND I KNOW IF THEY HAD THE STAFFING AVAILABLE WE WANT TO HAVE THE STUDENT INVOLVED BUT IT IS SUBJECT TO ALL THE U.S.D.A. REGULATION, I THINK THEY MIGHT BE MORE HIGHLY REGULATED THAN THE FINANCE AREA OF THE SCHOOL. >> BESIDES THAT PIECE OF IT WE HAVE TO HAVE A STAFF PERSON OPERATING THE CASH REGISTER BECAUSE OF PRIVACY >>> AND I WOULD IMAGINE SOME TEACHERS WOULD WANT THAT COFFEE BAR OPENED AS WELL, SOME STAFF MEMBERS. >> YOU'RE SO WELL RESTED MS. FULLHART WE DON'T NEED ANY CAFFEINE. >> AND I DO THINK CARMEL HAS SOMETHING -- >> THEY DID, THEY DID A FEW YEARS AGO AND THEY STOPPED BECAUSE OF THE REGULATIONS AND THEY WERE VERY -- THEY WERE THE FIRST ONES TO DO THE COFFEE SHOP SO THEY WERE VERY EVER LOOKED BY THE STATE AND THEY'VE DONE A LOT AND THEY ARE BACK OPEN BUT THEY HAVE TO HAVE A FOOD SERVICE PERSON ON STAFF. >> IS THAT THE SAME WITH OUR SPIRIT -- I KNOW THE HIGH SCHOOL HAS A SCORE TO GET THINGS SO THAT TRUE THERE TOO THAT IT HAS TO HAVE A -- >> IT'S DIFFERENT FOR THE CASHIER PIECE BECAUSE WHAT SHE'S REFERRING TO IS THE DESIGNATION FOR FREE AND REDUCED LUNCH, THINGS THAT -- WHEREAS THE SPIRIT SHOPS, I'M SURE THERE'S OVERSIGHT SO THERE'S AN ADULT THAT'S INVOLVED BUT IT ISN'T THE SAME REASON. >> I DO HAVE ANOTHER QUICK QUESTION AND THIS MIGHT HAVE ALREADY CHANGED BUT WITH THE COVID RESTRICTIONS THAT HAVE CHANGED AND WE DON'T HAVE TO HAVE LESS PEOPLE THIS THE CAFETERIA I KNOW WE ADDED A LUNCHTIME BEFORE, DID WE GO BACK TO ONLY HAVING FOUR OR DO WE HAVE FIVE -- DO YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT? >> IT'S FOUR STILL. >> IT'S STILL FOUR. >> I'M GETTING THE FOUR FINGER SIGN. >> OKAY THANK YOU. >>> THERE'S SOME THINGS THAT WERE SUSPENDED BECAUSE THEY MAYBE WERE LOSING PROPPINGS AND ARE THERE THINGS THAT WE'RE [00:40:04] LOOKING AT BRINGING BACK EVEN THOUGH THEY MAY HAVE BEEN A CONVENIENCE BUT THEY DIDN'T MAKE FINANCIAL SENSE. >> YOU CAN CHIME IN, SO FOR EXAMPLE WE GOT INTO DISPOSABLE WARE, PART OF THAT IS THE STAFFING PIECE, IF YOU CAN'T FIND PEOPLE TO FIND THE REGISTER YOU CAN'T FIND DISHWASHERS SO PORTABLE OR DISPOSABLE SILVERWARE, TRAYS, THINGS LIKE THAT, KAREN IS IN THE PROCESS OF TRANSITIONING BACK TO THINGS THAT ARE REUSABLE, NOT JUST FOR THE FOOTPRINT AND WASTE BAA BUT THE COST SO THINGS WE MAY HAVE HAD TO DO FOR CONVENIENCE THAT WE ARE AT A POINT WE CAN SUPPORT IT, THE LITTLE INDIVIDUAL SERVES ARE REALLY EASY BUT THEY'RE ALSO THE MOST EXPENSIVE OPTION, SO AND IT VARIES BY LOCATION. THERE'S THINGS LIKE I ALWAYS THINK OF THE SUSHI BOSS, ARE THERE THINGS THAT WE DIDN'T OFFER FOR A WHILE BUT THEY'RE COMING BACK BUT THOSE ARE ALL PROFITABLE AS FAR AS I KNOW. >> COUNTRY -- THEY WERE SUPER EXCITED ABOUT IT. >> SOMETIMES WHEN LIFE IS GOOD YOU SPEND MONEY BECAUSE YOU HAVE MONEY AND WHEN THINGS GET TIGHT YOU SAY WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO THAT BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE THE FUNDERS SO I DIDN'T KNOW IF THERE WERE THINGS LIKE THAT THAT WE WEREN'T BRINGING BACK BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T MAKE FINANCIAL SENSE SO MAYBE THERE ARE AND MAYBE THERE AREN'T. EVERYBODY WANTSERING BUT SOMETIME YOU DON'T BRING THINGS BACK BECAUSE IT DIDN'T MAKE FINANCIAL SENSE AND THIS IS A BUSINESS THAT STANDS ON ITS OWN AND I DIDN'T KNOW IF HOW FAR YOU GO OR WHAT -- YOU KNOW, OPTIONS GET LIMITED, IT'S EASY TO SAY WHY CAN'T WE DO THIS OR THAT AND WHY CAN'T WE HAVE THIS BACK AND SOMETIME THE ANSWER IS THAT IT LOST MONEY AND WE AREN'T GOING TO DO THAT. >> I WOULD SAY PROBABLY IT WOULD BE AT THE HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL THAT WE WOULD BRING BACK THE SCATTER SYSTEM OF THE DIFFERENT -- >> THE VARIETY OF DIFFERENT LINES. >> WE ARE BRINGING BACK BIGGER MENU FOR THEM AND WE'VE DANE SOME THINGS AND MOVED IT AROUND BECAUSE WE'VE MET WITH EACH GROUP TRYING TO SEE WHAT THEY COULD DO WITH THEIR GROUP AND GIVE ENOUGH VARIETY TO BE ABLE TO DO IT AND AS WE WORKED THROUGH THAT WE GEARED A LOT OF OUR MENUS AND THEY ARE OPTIONS TOWARDS OUR COMMODITIES WHICH ARE DISCOUNT AND TRY TO COVER COST [INDISCERNIBLE] >>> I THINK KAREN'SAL HAS BEEN DOWN TO THERE'S THINGS THAT THEY HAVE TO OFFER, THEY NEED TO HAVE FOR KIDS TO HAVE WHATEVER LEVEL OF VARIETY AND YOU START TO ANALYZE THE COST, YES IT'S GOING TO COST YOU THREE TIMES A MUCH -- I'M GOING TO USE PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY AS AN EXAMPLE. IF YOU'RE LOSING A DOLLAR ON EVERY LUNCH THAT INCLUDES A PEANUT BUTTER SANDWICH, AND THAT GOES BANG TO THE DISPOSABLE COSTS THOSE ARE THE THINGS THEY'RE LOOKING AT FROM THE MEETINGS THAT KAREN AND I HAVE HAD TO MAKE THEM MORE IF YOU COULD SO WE'RE NOT LOSEING MONEY ON MEALS, WE DON'T WANT TO LOSE MONEY ON A MEAL SO THERE'S NOT OPTIONS THAT THEY KNOWINGLY ARE GOING TO LOSE FUNDS ON IF IT'S TOO EXPENSIVE TO PRODUCE. >> AND I DID WANT TO SAY THE CATERING OPTION HAS BEEN AMAZING, THEY'VE CATERED A LOT OF OUR EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONS AND I'M SO IMPRESSED EVERY TIME AND GAME DAY AND I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THAT AND I APPRECIATE YOU DOING THAT. >> WE HAVE AMY WHO DISEASE THE MAJORITY OF OUR CATERING, SOME OF THE SCHOOLS SUPPORT IT AND CAN DO THEM ON THEIR OWN BUT SHE DOES A LOT OF THE DELIVERY AND SHE'S FROM THE HIGH SCHOOL AND SHE'S AWESOME. SHE DOES GREAT JOB BUT THE BOTTOM LINE FOR US IS IT'S GREAT NEWS, THE FUND IS SOLVENT, WE'RE MOVING FORWARD IN THE DIRECTION WE NATIONWIDE TO AND I THINK THAT'S A TESTAMENT TO THE STAFF THERE, THE KAREN'S EFFORTS IT'S A TEAM EFFORT BUT IT'S GOOD NEWS [00:45:04] FOR US THAT WE DON'T NEED THOSE LOANS ANYMORE. >>> THANK YOU SO MUCH. NEXT UP WE HAVE MS. LIPPY WITH OUR POLICY FIRST READ >>> GOOD EVENING BOARD AND DR. STOKES SO THIS EVENING I PRESENT TO YOU A FIRST READ THERE WILL STAY FIRST READ SO OUR FIRST TWO POLICIES THAT I PRESENT TO YOU I BELIEVE THE FIRST ONE THAT SHOWS UP IS SUICIDE AWARENESS AND REVENGES, J 07.11 AND THIS ONE HAD A LEGAL UPDATE AND OUR SECOND POLICY TO PRESENT FOR A FIRST READ IS ACTUALLY A NEWLY CREATED POLICY SO THROUGH ADVISEMENT OF CCHA WE DID NOT HAVE A PUBLIC RECORDS POLICY SO THIS WOULD BE A NEWLY CREATED POLYAND THAT WOULD BE K 05.00. AND THE FOLLOWING POLICIES WILL BE ABSORBED INTO K 05, PUBLIC RECORDS AND THAT WOULD BE DATA MANAGEMENT E 07.00. DATA RECORDS AND PRETENTIOUS 7.01, CONSTRUCTION REPORTS CAN REPORTS F 05.04, PERSONNEL RECORDS AND FILES G 02.14 AND FINANCIAL REPORTS AND STATEMENTS G 09.01 AND FINALLY DISCLOSURE OF STUDENT LISTS J 08.01, AND AGAIN THOSE THAT WE'RE RESCINDING BEEN ABSORBED INTO K 05. SO I PEREMPTORY THOSE FOR A FIRST READ. >>> I DO WANT TO POINT OUT SARAH AND I THIS POLICY COMMITTEE IN YOU'LL NOTICE THE FIRST COMPETENT ON THE PUBLIC RECORD POLICY, THERE HAVE BEEN SOME SCUTTLE ABOUT PERMISSIBLE FEES FOR RECORD AND IN OUR RESEARCH WE ARE NOT RECOMMENDINGS THAT WE ADD THAT TO THE POLICY AND IN OUR RESEARCH WE FOUND THAT IT'S REALLY UNNECESSARY SO I WANTED TO PUT THAT OUT THERE SO THE REASON WHY YOU SEE IT AS A FIRST READ WITHOUT THAT IS BECAUSE WE DID SOME RESEARCH AHEAD OF TIME. SO YOU DO KNOW THAT WE'VE KIND OF VETTED IT OUT SO IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS SARAH OR I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THAT. >> THAT MEANS IF THERE'S A TOWER YEAR REQUEST WE DON'T CHARGE FOR THAT. DO WE PROVIDE PAPER COPIES? >> IT'S DIGITAL AND SOME OF THE POLICIES THAT WE HAVE NOTICED AROUND THE STATE HAD FEES FOR PAPER COPY BUT SINCE WE DON'T DO THAT -- WE DIDN'T HAVE A POLICY REGARDING THAT SO -- >> SO E-51 WE NEED TO RUN IT BY LEGAL AND THEY WOULD CHARGE US FOR THEIR HOURLY RATE WE COULDN'T -- IT'S ACTUALLY NOT LAWFUL TO CHARGE FOR THE EXCEPTION OF THE LEGAL FEES FOR THAT -- >> I'VE ONLY EVER SEEN PEOPLE CHARGE FEES FOR THE PHYSICAL COPIES OR FOR THE TIME THAT THE EMPLOYEE SPEND COMPILING THE INFORMATION. WE HAVE RECORDS THAT LARGE. >> . >> SOMETIMES YOU HAVE MASSIVE REQUESTS AND AND IT TAKES THEM OUT OF THEIR JOB WHERE YOU HAVE TO HAVE A SEPARATE PERSON DO THAT REQUEST. >> AND THE LAW HAS PARAMETERS AROUND THAT TOO. >> GOOD TO NOSE FOR TRANSITION TEAM. >> SO CREATING THIS AS A FIRST POLICY I THINK YOU -- I DIDN'T READ IT IN MAJOR DETAIL BUT I SYMPATHY YOU DID A GOOD JOB BUT SEEING THE ONE THAT ARE RESCINDED WHAT WOULD YOU SAY IF ANYTHING IS THERE ANYTHING IN THERE THAT BUT PRETTY OBVIOUS THAT WE DON'T NEED TO PUT THAT IN THERE OR WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU SAW IT AND I APPRECIATE YOU BRINGING UP THE FEES PART BUT WHEN WE SAY WE'RE RESCINDING WE'RE RESCINDING SIX. >> A LOT OF THINGS THAT YOU'LL SEE WHEN IT TALKS ABOUT OUR -- THE ONE WHERE IT TALKED ABOUT FINANCIAL REPORTS AND STATEMENT AND OTHER THINGS BECAUSE WE'RE A PUBLIC ENTITY AND THOSE ARE RECORDS INTRODUCED BY US WE'RE REQUIRED UNDER THE PUBLIC RECORDS LAW TO RETAIN THOSE SO TO HAVE A POLICY JUST RESTATING [00:50:02] THAT WE HAVE A RETENTION -- WE FOLLOW THE LAW AND THE RETENTION FOR THE SUSPICIOUS FILES ANDLIES IS ONES BECAUSE WE'RE REQUIRED BY A LARGER LAW TO KEEP THOSE RECORDS ANYWAY. >>> GREAT AMOUNT SO THE PROCEDURE HAND BEEN WRITTEN THEN YET, SO THIS IS JUST THE POLICY AND SINCE IT'S NEW WE DON'T HAVE A PROCEDURE YET? IS THAT CORRECT? WILL THAT COME AFTER WE APPROVE IT? >> SOME DO, SOME DON'T, I THINK FOR THIS PROCEDURE IT IS FOLLOWING THE LAW SO THERE ARE STOPS THAT YOU HAVE TO -- SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT YOU'LL SEE IS THERE IS A -- LIKE WE SPECIFICALLY PUT IN THAT WE HAVE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE REQUEST WITHIN SEVEN DAYS OF RECEIPT WHICH IS WRITTEN THIS THE LAW BUT TO BE EXPLICITLY CLEAR WE'VE RESTATED THAT HERE. >> AND THERE IS A PROCEDURE SECTION IN THE POLICY FOR PEOPLE TO FOLLOW, THE PROCEDURES ARE WRITTEN INTO IT. >> I ONLY HAVE ONE OTHER QUESTION THAT'S ON THE OTHER POLICY THAT WE DID, THE REVISION. LET ME FIND THE CHANGE. >> ON SUICIDE. >> PLEASE. ON THE THIRD PARAGRAPH DOWN IT SAYS HF SCHOOLS PROVIDES SCHOOL COUNSELING SERVICES FOR STUDENTS AND TAMS RELATED TO SUICIDE PREVENTION, THERE'S A PERIOD AND SAYS IT ALSO REFER STUDENTS AND FAMILY TO IN SCHOOL HEALTH AND COUNSELING THERAPY, I WAS THINKING RIGHT BEFORE PREVENTION AND HFC SCHOOLS WE PUT AS NEED NEEDED. >>> I GUESS MY QUESTION IS WHY WOULD WE BE REFERRING STUDENTS IF IT WASN'T NEEDED OR REQUIRED? >> I DON'T KNOW BUT IT SAYS ON HERE HF SCHOOLS WILL REFER STUDENTS I'M JUST CLARIFIED AS NEEDED OR REQUESTED WILL ALSO REFER STUDENTS. >>> WE CAN SAY STUDENTS AND PARENTS DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO FOLLOW THROUGH FOR THAT SO WE CAN MAKE A REFERRAL FOR THE THE SERVICE. >>> WHERE ARE YOU READING THAT AGAIN? >> THIRD PARAGRAPH SAYS HF SCHOOL PROVIDES SCHOOL COUNSELING SERVICES FOR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES REPRESENTED TO SUICIDE PREVENTION AND I'M SUGGESTING AS NEEDED OR REQUEST ED . . . >>> I GUESS I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY IF WE HAVE IDENTIFIED A STUDENT HAVING SUICIDAL IDEATION WHY WE WOULD HESITATE IN SHARING THAT WITH PARENTS AND BY PUTTING IN WE MAY OR MIGHT THAT TO ME IS -- >>> I'M JUST SAYING IN GENERAL -- I JUST MADE A REQUEST. WE CAN REVIEW IT, IT'S THE FIRST READ, IT'S A SUGGESTION. >>> YEAH, WE WILL TAKE THAT BACK TO POLICY. >>> I HAVE A QUICK QUESTION GOING BACK TO THE RECORDS ONE, THE PUBLIC RECORDS. DON'T LAUGH. SERIOUS QUESTION. ARE WE STILL GETTING FAXES? >> YES. >> WE ARE? >> I WILL CONFIRM THAT I STILL USE FAX AND SO DO A LOT OF COURTS AND GOVERNMENT. >> OKAY, BECAUSE IF SOMEBODY SENT ME A FAX I DON'T KNOW WHERE I WOULD GET IT. >> WE STILL HAVE A FAX MACHINE BEHIND MY DESK. >> OKAY, THANK YOU SO MUCH AND THEN WITH THAT WE'LL MOVE ON TO [6. Action Items] CIRCUMSTANCES .01 OUR FIRSTA ITEM I POLICY SECOND READ AND WE HAVE MS. LIPPY. >> SO I PRESENT TO YOU FOR SECOND READ FROM OUR LAST BOARD MEETING SEW AS SECOND READ RECORDINGS ON SCHOOL PROPERTY PREVIOUSLY VIDEO SURVEILLANCE, WHICH IS E 06.04, AND OUR KNOX ONE, WHICH IS HAZARDOUS MATERIALS AND CHEMICAL MANAGEMENT F 09.00 AND FINALLY, COMMUNICATION WITH STAFF, G 02.03, AND THOSE POLICIES IF YOU [00:55:01] RECALL HAD SOME REVISIONS IN THE LANGUAGE AND WE HAVE THE NEXT SERIES OF POLICIES THAT ARE LISTED ARE ALL BEING RESCINDED BECAUSE THERE IS NO LEGAL REQUIREMENT TO HAVE THAT, HOW FAR THAT FINAL POLICY, CHEMICAL MANAGEMENT IS GOING TO BE ABSORBED INTO F 09, SO I PRESENT THOSE TO YOU FOR A SECOND READ. >>> ONE THING TO NOTE WHEN WE RESCIND OR WHEN WE ABSORB, IT'S NOT SAYING THAT THESE AREN'T NECESSARY OR THAT WE DON'T DO THEY WILL, A LOT OF TIMES IT'S JUST THEY'RE EITHER COVERED BY THE LAW IT'S SOMETHING WE ALREADY DO, IT'S SECOND NATURE; IT'S JUST PART OF OUR PROCEDURE ALREADY SO I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY THAT. >> RIGHT FOR SOME THERE ARE NO LEGAL REQUIREMENT TO HAVE THOSE SO IN AN EFFORT TO STREAMLINE OUR POLICIES. >> WE'RE TRYING TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF POLICIES THAT WE HAVE. >> AND I KNOW WE HAD A SPEAKER, I DON'T BELIEVE THEY'RE STILL HERE ANYMORE THAT HAD SOME QUESTIONS ON THIS, WHEN I SAYS IN PUBLIC THE PERMITTED TO RECORD PUBLIC SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS, AND WORK SESSIONS ARE SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS, IT'S A PUBLIC MEETING AND WE DID PASS A POLICY TO LIFE STREAM THOSE AS WELL SO THEY ARE ALSO BEING LIVE STREAMED BUT THERE'S NO NEED TO ADD LANGUAGE, THEY'RE JUST SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS, SO I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT'S CLEAR. >> BUT WE DID CLARIFY THAT WE'RE ONLY STREAMING MEETINGS THAT HAPPEN IN THIS ROOMING AND NOT ANY OTHER ROOM, CORRECT? I JULES BE THE CONCERN WAS THAT THE SPEAKER WANTED US TO ADD LANGUAGE THAT YOU WOULD RECORD A WORK SESSION, IT'S JUST A BOARD MEETING, NO DIFFERENCE >>> AND WE'RE ALREADY DOING THAT, ISN'T THAT CORRECT, OR JUST STARTED DOING THAT. >> YES WE STARTED LIVE STREAMING THE WORK SESSIONS. >>> THE LIVE STREAM STARTED WHAT AFTER OUR NOVEMBER MEETING, ISN'T THAT CORRECT. >> THE LAST WORK SESSION WE HAD WAS LIVE STREAMED. >> AND I WANTED TO JUST CLARIFY ABOUT THE SUPERINTENDENT BEING THE ULTIMATE AUTHORITY FOR RECORDING, DOES THAT MEAN IF A TEACHER SAYS SURE YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND RECORD THIS, IT CAN BE RECORDED WHATEVER IT MIGHT BE AND WE'RE GOOD BUT IF THE SUPERINTENDENT OR IF THE TEACHER SAYS NO THE PERSON CAN APPEAL TO THE SUPERINTENDENT? IS THAT HOW I'M READING THAT? >> WHICH PART. >> WHERE ARE YOU READING? >> THE RECORDINGS ON SCHOOL PROPERTY AND THE FIRST PARAGRAPH, THE SUPERINTENDENT SHALL HAVE THE ULTIMATE AUTHORITY TO DETERMINE IF A RECORDING SHALL BE PERMITTED. >> WHAT THAT MEANS IS NO ONE IS GOING TO COME IN AND SAY CAN WE DO THIS ON EVERY O CAN YOU REPEAT THE QUESTION, IT MEANS THAT WE HAVE PROCESSES AND PROCEDURES IN PLACE SEW TEACHERS KNOW THAT ANY RECORDINGS THAT ARE SUBJECT TO APPROVAL BY THEM IS ALSO SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN VETTED BY THE BEING LEVEL THAT HAS BEEN VETTED BY THE DISTRICT LEVEL TO SAY THIS THIS RECORDING IS ACCEPTABLE, AND THAT'S PRETTY MUCH WHAT IT MEANS IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT EVERY TIME SOMETHING HAPPENS SOMEBODY HAS TO CALL TO THE SUPERINTENDENT'S OFFICE TEACHERS KNOW WHAT'S NOT ALLOWABLE AND IF THEY HAVE QUESTIONS THEY DEFER TO THEIR ADMINISTRATORS THERE IN THE BUILDING. >>> SO I HAVE A QUESTION ON THAT POLICY, SPECIFICALLY IT SAYS THE SUPERINTENDENT OR HIS OR HER DESIGNEE, AND THEN ON THE HAZARDOUS MATERIAL ONES WE TAKE OUT HIS OR HER, YO WHY DON'T WE JUST DO SUPERINTENDENT OR DESIGNEE, WHY IS THAT IN CONSISTENCY BETWEEN POLICIES? >> WE CAN MAKE THAT CONSISTENT. >> YORK WHICH WAY WE GO I WOULD JUST MAKE IT CONSISTENT. >> SUPERINTENDENT OR DEZ NIGH. >> AND DR. STOKES YOU MADE THE COMMENTS THAT THERE PROCEDURES IN PLACE, THERE A LINK THAT THEY WOULD BE ABLE THE CLICK. >> KIM WITH SPEAK TO THAT BUT WHEN I TALK ABOUT PROCESSES AND PROCEDURES WE HAVE MONTHLY MEETINGS WITH OUR PRINCIPALS AND THEY HAVE MEETINGS WITH THEIR [01:00:04] STAFF CAN WE HAVE MEETINGS WITH THE ASSOCIATION AND WHEN SUBJECT MATTER COMES UP ABOUT THINGS THAT ARE ACCEPTABLE IN THE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT THAT'S WHAT I MEAN BUT IF WE NEED TO PUT MANAGER SOMETHING IN THAT MAKES IT IT MORE CLEAR I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO DO THAT. >> CAN YOU SAY THAT AGAIN SO IT'S NOT -- FOR EVERY POLICY ANY PROCEDURE THAT'S HAPPENING AT THE BUILDING LEVEL YOU WANT IT LISTED SO. >> BECAUSE THERE'S GOING TO BE DIFFERENT PROCEDURES FOR ELEMENTARY, JUNIOR HIGH AND HIGH SCHOOL. NORMALLY WHEN WE CONNECT PROCEDURES TO POLICIES IT'S PROCEDURES THE COMMUNITY WOULD NEED TO FOLLOW TO INTERACT OR ENGAGE WITH OUR SCHOOLS OR ADMINISTRATORS, LIKE HERE'S OUR POLICY IF IT'S TO SUBMIT A REQUEST OR SUBMIT A REQUEST TO REVIEW A BOOK THERE'S CERTAIN PROCEDURES THEY NEED TO FOLLOW IT'S NOT ALWAYS THE PROCEDURES WITHIN OUR INDIVIDUAL BUILDINGS THAT BUILDINGS FOLLOW >>> AND CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG MS. THOMAS BUT I'M ASSUMING YOU WOULD WANT SOMETHING THAT SAYS IN AN EVENT -- I'M MAKE THING UP BUT IN THE EVENT A PARENT OR COMMUNITY MEMBER CHOOSES OR WISHES TO RECORD SOMETHING IN A CLASSROOM THEY MU FIRST SEEK PERMISSION FROM THE THE CLASSROOM TEACHER CAN -- THAT'S UP A ALL WE CAN DO. >> THERE'S A SECTION IS THAT TALKS ABOUT PARENTS AND OTHERS RECORDING IN THIS ROOM AND I THINK IT WOULD BE MORE CLEAR IF WE HAVE A PROCEDURE IN PLACE SO THEY KNOW HOW IT'S BEING DONE >>> YOU'RE SPEAKING TO THIS POLICY VERSUS ALL? >> THIS ONE. >> HAVE TO MAKE IT MORE GENERAL LIKE THAT, IT CAN'T BE SPECIFIC TO ANY PARTICULAR SITUATION. >> CORRECT, I'M TALKING ABOUT THE RECORDINGS ON SCHOOL PROPERTY >>> I GUESS WHICH SUSPICIOUS PROCEDURE WILL YOU LOOKING ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? BECAUSE THERE A LOT IN THERE. >> I THINK DR. STOKES DID A GREAT JOB BUT WHEN PARENTS WANT THE RECORD AND IT INVOLVES THE DIRECT STUDENT OR JUST HOW THAT PROCESS WOULD WORK. >> SO LET ME DEFER TO DR. KEGLY FOR JUST A MOMENT. SO BARRING THE EXAMPLE THAT I JUST GAVE I DON'T KNOW THAT WE COULD BE VERY SPECIFIC BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS THAT COME UP IN CLASSROOMS. THE EXAMPLE I GAVE COULD YOU SEE THAT BEING WRITTEN IN ANY DIFFERENT WAY OR -- >> HERE'S A QUESTION TOO, DR. KEGLY IF A KID IS DOING A PRESENTATION AND PARENTS WANT TO RECORD THEIR STUDENT ARE THEY ALLOWED TO DO IT AND WHAT THE PROCEDURE FOR THEM TO FILM THAT STUDENT OR IF THERE'S SOMETHING BEING DONE AT AN ASSEMBLY THERE A PROCESS OTHER THAN JUST THE POLICY HERE THAT A PARENT HAS TO MAKE A REQUEST FOR? >> WELL WE COULD HAVE PROCEDURES IN PLAITS FOR PARENTS TO COME INTO THE BUILDING FOR ANY SPECIFIC TASKS SO IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S ALLOWABLE WITH THE TEACHER AND THE PRINCIPAL AND THAT IS COMMUNICATED TO PARENTS THEN THAT'S SOMETHING THAT CAN HAPPEN. WE WOULD HAVE TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT THE FILMING AND RECORDING OF STUDENTS THAT SOMEONE ELSE DOES AND WHAM TO THAT AFTER THE FACT SO THAT WOULD BE AN IMPORTANT PIECE IN THE WHOLE THING. >> THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT, I JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF WE HAVE A PROCEDURE IN PLACE AND ESPECIALLY IF THERE'S A MEETING, SAYS ON HERE MEETINGS, WHAT IF WE HAVE A PARENT AND TEACHER AND WHOEVER ELSE IS INVOLVED JUST WAS WONDERING IF THERE'S SOMETHING IN PLACE SO THEY'RE PREPARED FOR WHAT THEY'RE ALLOWED AND NOT ALLOWED TO DO >>> THANK YOU THERE ARE PROBABLY SOME SCENARIOS WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT MAY APPLY >>> THANK YOU. >>> . >> I WOULD ENTERTAIN A MOTION ON 6.01, MOTION TO APPROVE POLICIES AS PRESENTED IN 6.01. >>> SECOND. >> I HAVE A FIRST AND SECOND, ANY ORE QUESTIONS? >> THE QUESTION I HAVE IS ALL THOSE COMMENCEMENTS THAT WERE JUST MADE ARE THOSE ALL PROCEDURAL IN NATURE? >> YES.

DO WE GET INFORMATION LIKE THAT? >> IF YOU WANT INFORMATION ON NEW COURSE THAT WE'RE PILOTING. >> YES BECAUSE I'VE WITHIN BEEN ON THE BOARD TWO YEARS AND I'M CURIOUS TO KNOW THE ONES THAT WE HAVE BROUGHT IN DID WE HAVE ATTENDANCE TO THOSE OR DID WE NOT TEACH IT BECAUSE NO ONE SIGNED UP FOR IT? I KNOW WE HAD A MUSE YOU BE ONE -- YOU NEED TO REMEMBER THAT THERE'S A THREE SEMESTER LEAD WAY BEFORE THOSE CLASSES ARE IMPLEMENTED SO THE CLASSES YOU APPROVED LAST YEAR THIS TILE WON'T GO INTO EFFECT UNTIL JANUARY. >> SO NO ONE'S ACTUALLY SIGNED UP FOR THEM YET. THANK YOU. >>> AND I WOULD CAUSE NEW BOARD IF YOU ASK FOR THAT INFORMATION AND THERE ARE COURSES THAT ARE NOT -- THEY MAY ONLY HAVE TWO CHILDREN OR TWO STUDENTS SIGN UP FOR THEM THAT THEY DON'T BE ELIMINATED BECAUSE THERE'S NOT MUCH INTEREST IN THEM THEN BECAUSEON OUR JOB AS THE JOB OF A SCHOOL BOARD IS TO CURATE THE COURSE SCHEDULE, IF IT'S APPROVED BY THE STATE CAN WE HAVE SOMEONE TO TEACH IT AND WOE OFFER I WOULD I DON'T KNOW THAT IT'S UP TO THE BOARD TO PICK AND CHOOSE WHICH CAUSERS WITH SHOULD BE OFFERING. >> SO YOU MEAN NOT TAKE IT OUT OF THE COURSE CATALOG BUT STILL [01:10:08] HAVING IT IN THE CATALOG SO IF LET'S SAY THE NEXT SEMESTER MAYBE WE HAVE 20 STUDENTS THAT ARE INTERESTED THAT WE LEAVE IT IN THE CATALOG A LITTLE LONGER TO SEE IF THERE'S INTEREST. >> AND WITH THAT COMMENT DO WE ELIMINATE -- YOU TALK ABOUT GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS AND THEY PUT THINGS ON SCHOOLS BUT WHEN WE ADD COURSES DO THEY SAY THESE ARE THE ONES WE NO LONGER WANT YOU TO OFFER AT A STATE LEVEL. >> JUNIOR COLLEGE THERE IS SOL DOCUMENTATION THAT COMES FROM THE THE STATE WHEN THEY PHASE OUT A COURSE IT'S GENERALLY A MEMORANDUM THAT INDICATES THAT. >> OKAY, THANK YOU.
