School Board · Meeting · Jun 5, 2023

6:29 questions about uh the first thing just to see if you have questions we have our 6:34 end of the year items on our agenda uh fees such as providing the director 6:42 um and the executive committee the ability to do things like budget amendments to close out our financial 6:48 year those are typical things that we do at the end of the year I just wanted to 6:54 make sure I know we have three new board members that there weren't any questions about any of those end of the year items 7:00 that are on your agenda 7:08 great so let's talk then about the differentiated pay plan I printed off a copy so that 7:16 you could easily access it um it is in your your packet uh this was 7:24 reviewed Mr Mullins and I reviewed This Together uh to be able to because it 7:29 does impact uh the next year's budget um so there's different elements of this 7:36 plan for those of you who've done this before these are very familiar to you 7:43 um others the first element of the plan is are the 7:49 staff positions and the identification of those 7:55 uh when they will be paid out and how much um the performance component is 8:02 something that's in our board policy and it tells you how much money has been budgeted for that and how that will be 8:10 paid out and when it will be paid out 8:15 the next component is the additional instructional roles or responsibilities 8:22 um there's no changes to those and it is what um we have done previously 8:31 the education component although it's not part of the differentiated requirements that are in the uh from the 8:37 Department uh we do continue to pay for different levels of training uh 8:43 bachelor's Master's Master's 30 45 es and doctorate and then we have our 8:49 experience pay scale that will pay up to 30 years of experience 8:54 are there any questions about those things are those two last items the education experience they know they 9:01 don't affect the differentiated they budget no so they're just kind of here they're in the instructional budget 9:07 they're here just for kind of reference right yes it is a way that we 9:12 differentiate pay in the spirit in their scale versus additional pay 9:18 so did you uh you may have said this earlier I apologize if I missed it did 9:23 you collaboration with Mr Mullins on this yes sir so this is uh you're happy with with what thank you great 9:31 yes thank you anything that's impacted the next year he and I have 9:36 collaborated on are there any other questions or 9:44 concerns about any of that 9:50 okay moving right along so part of our packet also we we talked about this last 9:57 month or policy 3.600 is on the agenda 10:03 and that is about insurance um in last month's meeting we talked about 10:09 the need for a resolution um this is the completed version of that 10:16 resolution and the only changes that were made from the sample that you've 10:23 all seen through this one are in the 10:28 fourth section um to say whereas the board wishes to 10:34 retain these employees by offering retirement health and other benefits because they 10:40 do have the option if they do not take the medical insurance to get that other 10:45 benefits portion to apply to life insurance dental vision whatever they 10:52 wanted to do so we changed that I think in the sample policy it said life 10:58 insurance which is an option but it's all not the only option 11:03 so that's that how is this 3.600 in this 11:08 resolution related 3.600 is the policy that says that the 11:15 board can approve for employees to receive health care right but we have to make a change to 11:22 that 11:28 you see all you have to do is take out the word full time 11:34 yeah I mean and so it's not a big change but why would a 11:39 resolution and not just a revision to this problem we have to do a resolution it does this benefits Administration 11:48 this goes to business this goes to the council commission this will go to benefits Administration 11:53 visitors was also 12:00 about resolution I think I think we need to 12:05 about the resolution and the amendment with that resolution 12:11 okay so do you want I've just printed those off 12:16 it's okay so is it is it because the 3.600 just 12:22 says they provide group health insurance for all full-time employees it doesn't specifically say that no no that's not 12:29 what I asked if it's two other policies to be put in there so we could change that to match the resolution so that we 12:36 didn't have a okay there's no record on those policies and they're required by The Ref the no record of the resolutions 12:45 and they're required by law so I don't know how they then operate first the 12:50 school uh the school board doesn't operate by resolutions that often this is very to me it's very unusual to me 12:57 for a resolution but that's what it says a resolution okay and it's because we're changing it 13:05 to allow part-time employees yes and there is no resolution but you're saying there's no resolution that says 13:13 there's no resolution required that for the 25 out to add those between 25 and 30 hours there's not even a resolution 13:19 existing which is required so we're just gonna 13:25 spread the situation and put one forward to meet what we've talked about that's 13:30 what I to be able to for our best drivers School nutrition to be able to get 13:36 signed up for health insurance okay and we're refresh my memory what did 13:44 what is it because I missed the the last budget meeting what did we put in the budget for health insurance for 13:52 for who who are we giving health insurance too and what level we added the single 13:57 policy employee policy for cafeteria personnel and bus drivers 14:05 so what what dollar amount though uh about 40 000. 14:10 no age so is it the 7800 to go over single forty thousand to the school of 14:16 nutrition and then uh we budget for about 15 I believe 14:21 okay for some reason I was thinking there was more people than that they're in that category there's more 14:28 people in that category but when polls there's not more people that are probably going to propose okay okay 14:36 wow well that's a great job hopefully as a recruitment that's 14:41 individual fully paid Healthcare recruitment and retention 14:47 is this little king of rockets on are we live 15:03 what about what about health insurance for board members that was talked about here it did not pass it did not pass 15:11 so that when there was a vote for to do health insurance reform members yes really 15:19 wasn't thinking there I thought when we talked about it I thought we all thought it was a good idea well I think when we 15:24 were at the library talking about yeah I think it was voted on before we voted on like bus drivers and so when I voted it 15:32 was because we hadn't yet given bus drivers or have a very personal the opportunity 15:39 that doesn't feel like that's the reason I right but then we've got that exact 15:44 conversation Hospital Library yeah well we don't want to go to support membership right these 15:51 other parts yeah and we had so we voted on it for the board yeah so we did not do board meetings 15:57 we did not I can't we still yes because 16:02 I mean to me just the way it makes the job attracted from bus drivers board members is a hard to feel position 16:09 too and it's I mean it's not like you can bring it up and she can pray it's not like I even want to take it out yeah 16:16 I have insurance that I work but I think it I that's valuable complained all the time about how 16:21 there's no one ever runs that's what we discussed earlier yeah 16:28 Ron said that one of us you can bring it up or you can bring it up because we weren't present I was president 16:45 it's a good idea like I said before I think it's a good idea to build your recruitment for the next election so 16:53 it's athletic I mean 16:59 at the time when I voted no it was because bus drivers and other people had didn't 17:05 have access without it feel comfortable I mean but if you know 17:11 I would you know I would probably would need to add to the agenda or we could just bring it do we have an agenda item 17:17 that is suitable for that sweet 17:22 you can request you can do that or you can request to put it on the July name 17:28 let's just do that will you send me an email will it be too late to do that or is that 17:33 something important point of view the matter if that's a lot of what can I make people get off 17:41 your cost I don't know and I don't think it's a devoted item you know I don't think it's going to be many 17:48 the vote was three two zero two because we had two absent so it 17:56 was three years to know and because you still have to have four even no matter what you have to have 18:04 four votes Okay so so you don't just have to have a majority 18:09 yeah you have to have a majority of the majority of President majority of the 18:15 people who were present none of our votes can be uh obtained by just who's President it has to be a 18:22 majority of the membership see learn something new today 18:28 I mean yeah if you'll just email me you'd have 18:33 to have four four and then if those four voted on it that 18:38 was here then the other three so that Jordan but it has to be four members of 18:44 the board for anything to pass okay I did not know that 18:55 any other questions about that resolution so it will go from us to the County 19:02 Commission one of the other line of thinking is this needs to pass before you ask the county to do their thing 19:10 so we passed this then the county has the request to do their parting will 19:18 well let me ask you this yeah if we then want to add two award members 19:26 to insurance they don't work at least 25 hours 19:33 remember that they're they're in the brown category okay they're significant in the law 19:48 any other questions about that the only thing I want to say is I think 19:53 we need to do the policies change those policies before we do the 19:59 resolution motion to correct that take the full out 20:05 correct that and then do the resolution right yeah so they're both on there on the agenda 20:12 so yeah it's uh 5.102 and 3.62 years ago I don't know 20:20 that it makes a big difference to do that because we're doing them both tonight but 20:25 ever Heards you know they're they're on here um they're under the same lines they're 20:32 under the same item so you can do them in any control any order you want to right 20:39 yes also included on your agenda tonight is the partial read-ruth at e-sigmund 20:46 intermediate and Centerville Intermediate School um but it's actually 20:52 uh were opened last week and are very close to budget um for the first time and our architect 21:02 was here to help open those bids and has recommended that the low bidder be awarded method uh some free concrete 21:14 and they were given they were here here at the bid opening and we're told hey if there's something wrong with the bid let 21:20 us know within 24 hours we haven't heard anything so just just another question on construction when is the canopy going to 21:27 be repaired out there at the elementary school it's the insurance thing right it's Insurance yes sir it'll be passed 21:33 through with insurance concerned for it is expected repair anytime soon 21:40 um I feel like it is you don't like the purple look um but yes it's a it's an insurance 21:47 classroom as the other construction trying to 21:53 experience as Jim floors currently being installed um removal of equipment at East segment 22:00 Elementary uh to repair the sewer so everything's proceeding as planned 22:08 included in your packet also is the the golf course mou that is for uh 2023 22:17 2024 spoke with mayor Jacobs about this uh he is not recommending any changes 22:26 um we pay a fee to be able to close the course during matches that fee also 22:31 allows for our middle school teams to uh 22:37 have a very low cost to use those to allow them to see if they like the game without being paying that Junior 22:43 that Junior pass it requires no additional fees when they go out there to play right that's great 22:49 for five it's a small five dollar fee and up to 10 get it for free yeah up 22:56 to 10 then everybody else that's a party bothers me I don't know just if you get there late or something no that they go 23:03 by roster go by roster yeah [Music] 23:09 I'd say close to 10 maybe lower than that right that's lower than that okay so it wouldn't the kids aren't 23:15 paying anything and if they are the school same time 23:22 well how many we got using that about 10 people 10 students per School per middle 23:28 school and in the hospital high school and then the high schoolers they do have to have a junior pass because they're 23:35 out there a lot more and by then you've learned if you'd like to support or not and you have clubs and you have so that 23:42 Junior passes yeah about 40 people then 23:47 September school probably I'd say yeah 23:54 so that is included in your package for this for this month's agenda any questions 23:59 about that 24:05 okay um so the dog policy is back up again 24:12 um it's our last meeting 24:18 Miss Shelton have you had any other updates no and you said that you sent it 24:23 to our board attorney and you had some but yes our board attorney 24:28 um did want to address just a couple of things and she 24:35 thought that we should add a component uh for School Employees allergies as well as 24:43 students um to make sure that that was that that was brought up 24:50 um she also mentioned um 24:56 when we do the administrative procedures that we need to clarify who is going to 25:03 be designated if the dog handler goes to the restroom or goes yeah it's 25:10 out sick or something I don't know but if the dog handler happens to not be in 25:16 the building who is 25:25 this is and she said you can put it in procedures um 25:30 and she thought that the the employees allergies uh 25:37 should be addressed as well so do we even want to vote on it then do 25:43 we want to wait until we get yeah add that first 25:52 I'm surprised we didn't think of that we could take something about employees 26:00 it probably got changed around since we changed it so I mean so the changes that 26:06 you guys suggested the last meeting we put those in as well and sent that back 26:12 to the SBA and said no problem but I know Mr Hamilton mentioned um had been sent to our board attorneys 26:19 so that's why that Michelle sent it to her as well so that pretty much all she 26:25 was concerned but was that one issue yes and she uh she said in the beginning in this general 26:32 statement she said um on this the statement that says we believe she said I feel like it's a 26:39 stronger statement to say uh we recognize the importance 26:44 and what this can do will provide positive and welcoming environment uh she said just and she said that's just 26:51 the mandic she said so it's not anything legally she said but I don't think it makes a stronger statement she did say 26:56 that you know with injuries she said you can put that in your policy I'm not sure that it's really gonna 27:03 prevent someone from not holding you accountable um she said it's kind of like we can 27:08 tell somebody uh if you're riding in my car you're not I'm not liable but if you have an accident you're going to be uh 27:14 so she said just make sure that they're aware of that you can write that on your paper and put it in your policy but I 27:20 don't know how to do I don't think it carries anyway yeah she did not she did not either she said but if Tennessee 27:26 risk management has found off on it then then your carrier has signed off on it 27:35 I read it I guess so can we just change it on the blind yeah because it sounds like a 27:42 reading yeah supervision and Care since the Handler 27:48 is solely responsible and I think you can just on this section 27:54 that talks about allergies and and then she said that we could um 28:02 take care of the supervision and care in the procedures of what happens if the 28:10 dog handler sometimes for whatever reason is not available 28:28 so so where will we put the employee 28:35 allergies I think you can put it in the authorized areas that's where it's addressed 28:45 or an allergy student or employee allergy I think you can insert it's a tsunami in the areas 28:52 where parents started a concern or allergy on the permission form or a foreign employee 29:06 or you can put it in the allergic reaction section well it's kind of already in there 29:13 and it says if any student or School employee yeah it says that I mean that's already there 29:20 I mean I guess it's it's it would be best under the authorized areas it's where is 29:27 like number eight says permission form letter we've sent home parents and Guardians to 29:35 check her allergies and express any concerns so so an employee is going to have to 29:42 so employees will then have to um 29:48 declare their elements also as well is that is that data that we even had 29:55 no I think you won't have to be part of your procedures that declaration by the employee that they can so down here on 30:02 this authorized areas yeah can we can we ask to declare 30:07 analogy if they don't want to be around the dog I mean 30:13 instead of medical piece of medical information that is supposed to be confident 30:20 that we're not talking about information yeah I think you're the employee would share it if it was a problem not you 30:27 know oh I'm just asking can we ask for it I think they would probably tell us 30:32 I'm sure they'd tell them yes that's not the question is that can we get in any 30:37 kind of legal trouble because we're asking for it 30:46 it shall not be in areas where a parent or an employee noted a concern or an 30:51 allergy that's right 31:00 all right so so our attorney said you need something in there for employee but she didn't say 31:05 what she [Music] 31:10 I mean I'm starting to feel like yeah she said I mean didn't she give a 31:15 recommended language 31:33 apparently says employees may also under authorize area employees may also notify their 31:39 principal or supervisor of allergies or other reasons the dog should be excluded from their areas of work visitors to 31:46 campus will be notified of the dog's presence on campus so that's her record she likes it if I like it 31:55 very long 32:06 what do you know about the form though for the parents yes 32:23 okay any other questions about time also in our board packet for tonight are 32:29 our salary scheduled for 2023 2024. uh what was noted in there 32:37 um was your six percent and that six percent remember we said plus the steps so there 32:44 it was six percent for the step so they're getting more than six percent because they were going to get their set 32:52 um and it also included the 3 000 for the support staff that was direct 32:58 to the compensation 33:05 and that's just for this year right that's just this year's 33:11 six percent for 2023 right it doesn't it doesn't like carry on like six percent every 33:17 year it's just this year okay leave it alone 33:24 you know yeah but I'm just making sure that would not be a six percent increase next year yeah yes 33:37 that's right budget year to budget years well we get together yeah 33:42 yeah yeah 33:48 okay does this so John does this work with your plans 33:55 and yes you look at this yes with this uh 34:02 this Gilbert and Mr Elkins have been very gracious and very collaborative so 34:07 yes 34:15 so I I didn't get a chance to be honest with you 34:27 so there are 34:34 so on bdp salary schedule which I feel like shouldn't call it be 34:39 but take your showers the old hat is Die Hard I'll change the 34:45 time it's really not 34:50 it's not anymore so to this to this verse sheet the VP 34:59 you said there's a six percent got applied everywhere to average item on 35:04 there was increased by six percent so every number in this whole grid is that okay 35:10 and then what about principal assistant 35:16 principles like that yeah our third grants than a six percent increase okay 35:22 what about central office and deputy director salary 35:31 they're all are based upon their uh the teacher salary schedule so they're all 35:37 in they say oh so this formula starts with the teachers 35:43 principles and for uh supervisors now the principal one is actually not 35:51 based off of the teacher yeah 36:00 did any of these supplements change gee 36:07 so that's what they were before or they do yes the only difference is at the 36:13 bottom we did not have a separate Deputy before we do now that's in there 36:19 the supervisory responsibility that local park down there 36:25 did have a 1500 first year and a 3 000 every year after we just took out the 36:31 1500 uh and made it three thousand period That's the only change 36:39 um oh okay so that first page is just 36:45 Deputy directors and the next page is supervisor South yes okay because this the formulas are different 36:54 I guess this is good times Xanax are you happy with the wording on May the 8th motion 36:59 or that you made it uh a motion to approve the four percent rates for certified 37:08 three thousand raise increasing 40 support staff 37:13 not exactly what you said you said 37:18 where's it down about it's withdrawn yeah yeah so the second 37:26 motion was for six percent 37:34 some of it a little bit unaudible but that's what I pulled out that you said 37:39 anyway I've got questions the 37:48 it appears that the minutes on May 9th are vague and incorrect okay Mrs May's 37:54 motion did not use the word raise as the minutes indicates but we're in a motion to indicate for the base salary schedule 38:00 uh sometime referred to as the BEP salary scheduled to be altered to 38:05 reflect a six percent increase for certified licensed personnel 38:11 motion was intended for a certified licensed Personnel to only receive a six 38:16 percent increase to each individual current wage for the 2023 school year 38:24 that thought was this for everybody to report up if you want to read it or go along with me 38:30 kind of and if you want to make a change to the 38:35 minutes you can just make a motion in the meeting to do that is this um surrounding this approach presents no 38:42 this is it's kind of an explanation think what was going on the 38:48 I'm down before it says 2023 24 school years the motion also intended for the 38:55 non-certified personnel which includes but not limited to Transportation Food Services educational assistance office 39:01 Personnel maintenance and so forth because that's what we were discussing at the time uh excluding the directors I've said 39:07 departments to receive a three thousand dollar pay increase on each individual's current wage in addition to making 39:14 medical benefits available and the board will pay for the medical insurance for 39:20 all non-certified employees if the non-certified employee chooses to partake at this benefit a motion further 39:27 intended for the non-certified base salary schedules to reflect the three thousand dollar increase one time to 39:34 begin on July the 1st 2023 is 3 000 base schedule change will remain at this 39:41 amount until the board makes future changes and uh 39:46 the other let the minutes reflect the board's motion attend May dates especially called budget meeting and to 39:52 be revised is stated above and to be presented at the July 23 regular board meeting for approval uh 40:00 this is this surrounds the conversation that we were talking about at that time 40:06 so so this is a lot of words can you give me the one sentence Cliff Notes 40:13 that's basically the discussion behind it so I mean that the actual motion was 40:19 a six percent or license for certified Personnel okay and then three fat three thousand 40:25 through the step yeah just full clarification because we said this from the beginning that that six 40:32 percent for most people was averaging out to a seven percent because it was 40:38 six percent is income 40:43 so that's just a six percent weight right 40:55 so this looks like 41:00 to the it wasn't decided to give the medical 41:06 insurance benefit to all non-certified employees for bus drivers of cafeteria workers because 41:13 that's a different size group the rest of them already have the rest of it already have it but not at 7800 or 41:19 whatever it is yeah if they were full-time best job as you 41:25 can hear it because they're not pulled up correct uh 41:35 you also Mr campus if you wanted to could make a motion to add this as discussion 41:41 uh we could put it after the segment the motion was seconded we can add this if you wanted to because 41:50 if I was just going to make you this up it's kind of worried make it as uh let many reflects the horse motion attended 41:57 on the May 8th and give you that for you to put in it so I think I think I personally thought and 42:05 I I think even about what Christie just said about is this just a lifetime thing 42:11 I thought it was just six percent above what this it was now 42:17 and it didn't that amount didn't carry on to next year that's the way I took it 42:24 that we were giving them a six percent this year but it didn't carry on to next 42:29 year the way the salary schedules are being done is that six percent is going to carry every year it's not going to 42:36 raise every year six percent but you changed it from 41 000 to 44 000 42:42 beginning so that forty four thousand is going to be next year and the year after that and the year after that until we of 42:49 course we have to go up to fifty thousand but that six percent is going over here I 42:55 thought that it was just gonna be a one-time bonus not really not well I 43:04 don't but you can't like I mean you're good but you can't like give a heart and then take it take it back then yeah if 43:11 it if it's anything other than that then a raise whatever word you want to use is 43:16 a bone and okay bonus is a one-time thing yeah I think it is unless the word 43:22 bonus was used understood 43:27 Elkins when he said that it would be on top of this step and then so it'd be 43:33 like a seven percent and that's why I guess I haven't understood well every year we have to re-look at yes your 43:40 salary so we may not give them uh make sure they may not get six percent on top of but but this will never go down right 43:47 right yeah I mean that's a chance well that never never is a very strong right 43:53 yeah it's about to say next year and year for that in each year whoever's on the board will have to look 43:59 at what the funding amount is Right consider how much they want to go into Bond balance decide what they want to do 44:05 with it you can't predict what the funding is going to be anyway right now standing in 44:11 three years you'd have to be at 50 000 on the matter right so um 44:17 yeah it was the intent to go with the six percent even though the word raise may not been 44:24 used 44:30 was not there okay race is not in the audio he can look at 44:35 2.2 hours and eight minutes and 40 seconds into it right it's not there okay so right this way I guess well if 44:45 you're talking about a four percent yeah yeah it's a it's an unemployed term I 44:50 guess yeah so where are you are you okay that's what I'm asking you guys that 44:57 this is kind of the content behind it 45:18 the old bonus is like the only word that is used to being it's a one-time thing if you want the discussion behind I 45:25 don't think it changes anything okay make a motion yeah just put this in there for more clarity okay I I don't 45:30 think that's a problem that could be 45:46 and if you want to approve the minutes with this amendment we can go in and 45:53 change them in the morning you know to reflect so the question I had is I'm back on salary schedules 45:59 the supervisor salary formula you know it's a formula it's 46:05 it's got headers and supplements all these different things I 46:11 want to say at one time we were we were in a situation to where 46:18 a supervisor a supervisor's salary 46:23 will do the same or less than a principal salary maybe I'm recalling that wrong 46:29 um because because the principals had one kind of maybe whether one of you guys the principals have a schedule yeah 46:35 whereas the supervisors have this formula and the the comment I had and 46:40 this was a year or two ago the comment I had on that was you know if if you're going to attract 46:47 people to work at central office you know I think in your case almost 46:53 everybody who works at central office was partly a principal so if the principals are kind of your pipeline to 47:00 the central office jobs um and if you make it to where the central office pay scale is lower than 47:06 principal you're probably going to have an empty pipeline of people to work at central office I guess I should be telling you this 47:12 so that's kind of what I recall from a while back but I don't know and you can't with being a formula I don't even 47:18 know if that's even the case I just seem to remember I think our supervisors 47:28 we had brought that I'm getting some no not everybody is because 47:36 depending on where you are on that BEP scale because that's your base that's a formula so depending on where you are on that 47:43 feature scale how many years experience you have that impacts 47:48 going forward um but is this well like when you get to 47:54 this supervisor salary um 48:01 so inspection it's based on that BEP scale plus this formula right yes yes so 48:07 you're it's a what's your additional logo which is that down at the bottom 48:13 and then then times 1.2 48:18 and then a system-wide supplement and then you have your academic responsibility and your financial then 48:24 and all of them don't have that I just and and I haven't done the math to know 48:30 if this is the case but let's say you got somebody who's the principal has been principal 20 48:37 years and you're like uh Hey principal I'd like you to come work at the central office and then they 48:42 say yeah that sounds like a great idea I want to go work because I want to work central office and then you look up to the tent like but it's going to be a 48:48 fake up for you because this formula I just want to make sure we're not invested quick uh depended on how many 48:54 years of experience now if you're talking about 20-year veterans probably not going to be a problem but if you've got somebody who's fairly new on that 49:01 teacher scale they may not make as much as other principles or support for more of the 49:08 experienced people you think is not an issue I don't think it's as much of an issue okay I just recall 49:15 yeah we have looked at that and requested and look at that several years 49:21 ago about doing a seven River Flat not flat but a similar 49:26 schedule principles and death to the supervisors and at that point in time the board 49:32 so they would prefer not to do that just happened approached it since then and that's when 49:38 we were looking at everything in comparison of Williamson County and the Kia County Roads okay 49:46 so um there's 49:54 so these other I don't know some Pathologists or psychologists they're all based on them 50:00 they're based on their BEP so they would have went out six percent to six percent yeah 50:06 but none of the other multiplier 50:11 did the nurse scale the RN scale is based off of BEP uh the 50:18 LPN we did at 3 000 support staff of the RN 50:25 on this channel uh based on the btp really so uh so our ads are paid just 50:31 like their teachers 50:40 and that has been so that was that was about 10 so the 50:45 LPNs and this other chart here on uh when they get paid that was their 50:51 whatever you experienced plus three times so this this is one they got the three thousand though I have them with 50:57 support the way we understood them I think it was that they would have a 51:02 three thousand dollar increase stock to the stat about a three thousand dollar increase from where they're currently at 51:09 to what they would think next year and that's how I adjusted those States and 51:14 does that go for pretty much LPN and all the rest of these supporters 51:20 yeah they're all all got effectively yeah and we'll go back and review and if 51:26 any of those are not where they need to be I'll bring them before 51:31 I started to make sure that was in that 51:41 all these bus drivers the bus drivers three thousand yeah 51:47 technology social worker 51:53 information like director today at 3000 or the six 51:58 percent athletic directors based off BP scale as 52:04 of last year our teacher skill that bachelor's teacher Skillman did that 52:09 last year so it was was it was this six percent 52:15 perfect out they were good since it was based off the teacher scale and got the six percent 52:22 okay because it doesn't say based off VP it has a plan 52:28 so we can make that adjustment but I'm just asking I suppose 52:33 understand what God adjusted maintenance people through that 52:40 what about these hourly yes take it into account their hourly 52:49 their annual hourly amounts that will hold the 3 000 was pulled down into a dollar per hour okay 52:57 same with food service also on their own portion 53:07 foreign 53:35 we've had some questions about in the past is when tssa comes up each year 53:40 uh and so Mr Marlon Davis just walked in the room and he is uh served as the 53:47 president of cncc he's also going to be working with them in the future so he's here if we uh when we get to that on our 53:54 agenda if we have any questions or anything about tsse thank you for being here tonight 54:00 uh and we've got a few more minutes and we have a few policies for tonight yes so we're 54:06 6.319 except for first reading and that is just changing uh to include on grades 54:13 one through twelve for the alternative school and then of course the dog policy that Miss Gilbert spoke of earlier in our 54:20 meeting and then we have some up for review 6.400 to 6.408 million 54:28 kind of a life Niagara Falls but next month it'll be tomorrow 54:33 we talked today about how many board policies we've got in the 54:40 I'd interrupt him I think I may have got it pretty close within one or two but in 54:45 order for us to to review bylaws the policies that we've 54:50 got we've got about 287 policies I've got right and that means that we got to review 54:56 some of them require uh annual review rather than every two years 55:02 simply because the way it's written I couldn't find it in law it may be there it didn't have time to research it but 55:08 we got to review 13 of those um a month and that's on a 12-month 55:14 schedule and I would I saw our schedule in here and you don't 55:20 have September down as a board meeting with all of the agendas and everything that we have to do I would take that off 55:27 a word session and make it into a regular meeting 12 of them 55:33 13 board policies I mean were swamped as it is I'd like to get some of them ahead 55:38 of time maybe we'll get a schedule ahead of a month ahead to know what's coming up 55:43 and so but I think we ought to be meeting 12 months instead of 11. 55:49 to cover all of that there's a lot of them Miss Shelton has been really good about putting that 55:55 schedule out and when we talked today I told him I was it's weird that he called me to talk about that today because this 56:01 morning I was just looking at the proposed schedule because we'll finish our two-year review in August the next 56:07 year so we'll start again and I and the month I started with it was October because typically we do just do a work 56:13 session in September and not a voting on the on the policies but I was just looking at that today and there are some 56:19 months when there's 13 policies we just started that 10 years ago right no this 56:25 is our third time six years six years we discovered some 56:31 today that somehow another we missed so I have emailed Jennifer white to SBA 56:37 about uh the ones that have to be reviewed annually we need to make sure that we are getting them in every 56:44 in in one year's time did you find any more than the two I did not but I reached out to her too 56:49 to make sure I didn't go through all of it you know 56:54 the content to give you uh some back uh the board 57:01 if you'll remember back when I first started the board chose to make that September 57:08 meeting a work session and I believe at the time it was our 57:13 policy says that officers are elected at the third regular board meeting that would be September yeah and it would be 57:20 September and I think the way it failed [Music] 57:45 effectively they can be this morning the first of September so the board can do 57:51 when you can do it it held your meanings when you want to but the reason that one is a work session uh it's because that's 57:57 what the board chose to do at that time to give the new board members time to kind of acclimate and 58:03 first [Music] before uh before they elect offices 58:13 that was what the board did at the time yes 58:19 okay if you're elected at the third regular board meeting 58:25 if um that's probably what you're saying 58:30 that's probably the reason why it's a work session that's why but that's absolutely why it was the board voted on 58:35 that uh seven years that kind of makes sense for the 58:40 workload it's there and the the training session you're talking about uh if it's 58:48 the introduction here that the directors give us that could be given in time I 58:53 mean after the election between August and September 1st I understand 58:58 yeah no it was a special client we got thrown in the training that tsba is 59:05 giving you is not the first week of September anyway so and I think that we 59:10 had the board had wanted to use it as a strategic planning session it typically when we've done our strategic plan and 59:18 reviewed it as incentives now like I said the Lord can do as it pleases I just wanted to give you the history on 59:24 why that's even there to start with uh that was what the board chose to do seven years ago 59:32 I want to spread out I want to spread out the workload I mean one more month 59:38 and introducing if there is new people during that once every two years 59:44 if there's new people then we can introduce them and get them going on what they need to be done if that's if 59:50 I'm even here experience 59:56 and and just it's like I said it's a lot uh 13 of them sometimes can be much and 1:00:02 we don't even have 13 each month sometimes there's a little different sometimes there's 10 sometimes they're 1:00:08 11. I can go back to that standard and see if I actually spread it out a little bit better well usually the recent 1:00:13 summer 13 is because sometimes it's the policies go together and so you want to kind of review them you know in that 1:00:20 chunk together um but I don't mind looking at that schedule again too well and as long as 1:00:26 we make sure we get the ones that have to be done yeah it's very difficult access that today you know 1:00:33 that might make a difference too yeah you know we would necessarily have to have a September War meeting if we make 1:00:39 sure that we got all the ones that had to be reviewed yearly within the year yeah so we're already going to be here 1:00:50 I'm okay with it yeah so yeah I do it this year is a non-election here yeah 1:00:57 you're referring to the uh annual agenda right the leading dates you can just 1:01:03 make a motion to amend it yeah just take off work session believe it it's going 1:01:08 to be here anyway so just yeah easy to do 1:01:15 okay this is five minutes 6 56 so we've got a 1:01:21 few minutes 1:06:58 foreign coordinating 1:07:08 okay 1:07:14 falling in silence please 1:07:27 congratulations 1:07:51 May

second diapers I have uh oh 1:34:22 School Board turning for one second I got distracted by the 1:34:28 ice cream truck um uh so 1:34:35 um the recommendation has been made for the board to engage in a letter on 1:34:41 of Engagement with Scott Bennett to be the school board attorney he is out of Chattanooga I believe and I 1:34:50 think he has spoken with Mr Mullins about it representing the school board so you said it's been recommended through this recommendations 1:34:59 can we table it yes he was he was scheduled to come here I 1:35:05 think it's important that she meet with this gentleman he's your attorney but he 1:35:10 uh he had a family that didn't come up so we're gonna try to keep him coming to you live in my and he is the one that 1:35:19 presents at tsba if you've been to any of the budget 1:35:25 or or financial stuff he represents it represents Tennessee school district his 1:35:32 practice is solely uh School law but at the same time he's going to be your 1:35:37 attorney I think you need to have a chance to interact with you face to face and it was scheduled to come and 1:35:44 something came up so if you I suggest that we table it and give it to college 1:35:49 to table it until July five seconds of July on a Thursday 1:35:57 I suppose 1:36:05 the federal budget included in your packet or what we have 1:36:10 a tendency to call placeholder amounts for some of our federal programs uh for FBI 2024 and that is 1:36:18 because of the closeout process of books um generally goes into August with the 1:36:26 state and so this allows us to operate these programs uh during the month of 1:36:33 July and August and then after we close out the carryovers will be applied in a 1:36:38 more amendments budgets but this so uh one of them you have is bargain's 1:36:44 Consolidated budget which includes Consolidated admin Title One title two 1:36:49 title four Title Five idea Part B and idea Pre-K 1:36:55 you also have a placeholder for 1:37:03 the CTE Perkins face it program that is 1:37:08 in there that is our 801 142 801 program and then also place over budget for our 1:37:15 project aware of 142 9664. with fresh me on what placeholder means 1:37:22 place order Jesse I'm not sure where that term originally came up but it's one that we've carried 1:37:29 over it's basically that this is not the full budget that went up being there because of carryover funds but this 1:37:37 allows us to get into the operating uh that will occur during the month of July and August while we try and close out 1:37:44 there's process with the state on e-plan or we have to do financial expenditure 1:37:51 reports uh sometimes they can take as much as a month to get approved and 1:37:56 finalized by the state because everyone in the state is doing that at the same time can you get everything balanced and 1:38:03 the federal budgets run on a different calendar you'll remember so yeah they 1:38:09 run on a different physical calendar what was this just uploaded to this yesterday 1:38:18 that they don't um that they wrote on a different fiscal calendar which is why you'll have to adjust them once you get 1:38:24 your final allocations in so you need a motion to approve the 142 federal budget 1:38:31 call it we don't call it anything just other than 142 federal budget place 1:38:40 yeah make motion down there 1:38:46 second motion second control combo 1:38:52 is your husband yes Mr Clean yes Mrs May yes Mr Williams 1:38:59 um I downloaded the packet yesterday 1:39:06 um and when I downloaded it there's one part of

say aye opposed 1:43:13 social membership include so it just uh time come time for our renewal ntsse 1:43:20 um I asked the board chair to recognize Mr Marlon Davis to tell us a little bit about tssc 1:43:27 or our board members that are new yes 1:43:33 foreign 1:43:44 to me especially when I got started in education I came here in 1990 and was a 1:43:50 teacher at Lincoln County high school until 1999 and it went to Crockett County for a year and then I went to 1:43:57 Wayne County and served as principal for nine years and then his supervisor for five and now I've been director of 1:44:02 schools in Wayne County for the past eight and uh during those last eight years these prior to eight years I have 1:44:09 served as a president of the board for tsse how all that came about I'm sure it was 1:44:16 my knowledge and relationship with Mr Qualls when I was hired here he was director of schools at the time and tsse 1:44:22 began here in Hickman County I don't know if any of you know that but it did 1:44:27 and he and Mr Bill Everson who was director of schools at Bell City at the time started organizing the ingredients 1:44:35 school systems to bring some awareness to inequitable funding in Tennessee and 1:44:41 they filed what was called a small schools lawsuit and it began in 1988. I was in the auditorium out here Mr 1:44:48 quality speaking we were having an introductory uh I guess it may have been my first year first or second year and 1:44:55 he was speaking to all the faculty and staff and the Electoral at the high school and he said something big is 1:45:00 about to happen but I can't share a whole lot of weight and that kind of peaked my ears a bit 1:45:06 but as a green teacher an educator at the time it really didn't seem as 1:45:11 important to me as it did for me to be thinking about my students in classroom and getting ready for the school year 1:45:17 but he brought up some interesting points and I still remember and he made this statement he said if this goes 1:45:22 through and the small schools lawsuit is passed by the courts it's going to feel like Christmas to you 1:45:28 in 1992 Chancery Court enrolled in favor of small schools and he continued on since 1:45:36 then because of the actions of tsse we've had the BEP placed in into the as part of the 1:45:43 funding model we've had a teacher of Equity Funds we've had the attached receiver portion of the funding model 1:45:50 put into the BEP now in recent years in 2015 Shelby County filed a lawsuit 1:45:57 against the state of Tennessee the first lawsuit with small schools was 1:46:02 about inequity in other words our piece of the pie was too small for Rural 1:46:09 school systems we were getting an equitable Equitable amount and I can tell you that if you think of it this 1:46:16 way if um you know tax base is a lot of especially Wayne County Hickman County is pretty 1:46:22 much the same property taxes local sales tax local option sales tax is pretty much what funds our school systems 1:46:28 nothing I'm wearing tonight I could buy at Wayne County okay 1:46:35 I have to go to to Madison County which I live in Clifton so I go west to Jackson probably many of you go to it 1:46:42 when I lived here because it was a big mall there it's time so we had to travel somewhere and 1:46:49 those dollars or sales tax dollars that are deteriorating spent in certain counties the education 1:46:55 apartments in those counties receive a portion of those sales tax bonds that we spend in other places because out of 1:47:01 necessity and then there's more funding for the schools and that's how inequitable funding occurs and so 1:47:10 without the direction of the former directors of girls school system that recognize it's important that our kids 1:47:17 get the same education or the same opportunities available to them as they would in Wilson County Rutherford 1:47:23 Davidson Williamson and so on they challenged the funding models and 1:47:29 uh we're all reaping the benefits of that and uh you know these lawsuits have 1:47:35 continued and I referred back to 2015 there just a moment ago Davidson County filed a suit uh Shelby County so 2017 1:47:45 Davidson joined in and at some point probably around 2018 19 tsse joined in 1:47:51 as an intervener because what did the courts had decided in the past had helped small schools 1:47:58 wanted the two larger school systems in the state of Tennessee wins a lawsuit and it has a negative impact on Rural 1:48:04 school systems we had to get in and anytime you get into a lawsuit 1:48:09 it costs money it cost to do this I encourage you you know to maintain those membership dues 1:48:16 TSS is very very important it's really important the the salary Equity money that Hickman 1:48:25 County receives annually is 240 878 dollars due to tsse annually 1:48:35 his news is not even a fraction of one percent and so it's important that we maintain 1:48:41 that solidarity with rural school systems so that we can guard our 1:48:47 financial statement questions do you have this is a 1:48:53 different I want you to calculate differently say in the past 1:48:58 although if we had a flat feet right so let's see now just to set them 1:49:05 out 1:49:17 that's what I've received every year but ourselves just around 1:49:23 remember yeah it was three thousand something once yeah uh Wayne County I've received 1:49:30 the same views type notes it's based on ADM 1:49:36 see a portion after that how many counties Tennessee are members we have 1:49:41 86 member districts wow and when you you know it'd be hard for Higley County or Wayne County to go to 1:49:48 Capitol Hill and legislature sensation and say try to explain something we're not going 1:49:54 to we're not even going to shank a bush but when you take 86 School Districts up there and you say this is organization 1:50:00 that represent 86 School Districts you shake a tree you get an opportunity to get at the table in the governor's 1:50:07 office get an opportunity to get into legislators offices when you save your represent 86 School Districts 1:50:14 so this this ongoing legislation right now is really kind of that you're talking about where you're intervening 1:50:20 on this community lawsuit with Davidson and Shelby county is that is that what 1:50:26 we're paying for with this membership fee the attorneys for that yeah I say a good bit a portion of that yes it would 1:50:32 be yeah and that is in our interest because 1:50:37 that lawsuit could undo some of the responses it takes it protects the fiscal stake of small students yes very 1:50:44 important now now this you gotta think about it's two 1:50:50 large smooth Systems this is what pushed the new Tesa funding model 1:50:55 that's what forced us having the additional one billion dollars that the governor has put in it and that's not 1:51:01 total tsnc but if tsac was not involved the tax receiver split portion to the 1:51:08 new funding Model T set would not have occurred 1:51:13 because we were lobbying there to see that 1:51:26 thank you continue ourselves 1:51:35 second second welcome I think you're coming out was 1:51:40 very valuable yes which I know in previous years we've 1:51:47 hit your eye the idea because we tried to save everyone that we can uh 1:51:54 severe explanations it's an education thing to 1:51:59 boards changed directors change and you know if you haven't really been involved 1:52:05 with it it's it's important for us to educate you and I appreciate the opportunity that you've given me an 1:52:10 invitation to come here and to address everybody thank you for making a trip yeah appreciate it 1:52:19 yeah I called and I said can you please come just to talk to them because they don't know yeah 1:52:29 oh yeah Mr Willis 1:52:36 oh well I'm sorry 1:52:45 Mr Gannon yes Mr house yes 1:52:51 Mr Lang yes this is nice yes yes six I'd like to change my book no yes 1:52:58 okay yes seven zero 1:53:06 all right If there really is an animated students so when we made it 1:53:12 still included in your packet where the bids that were open for the partial regroup 1:53:18 it was in our budget in capital outlay uh it has come in 1:53:23 close the budget where we can cover it in the capital budget we are recommending that we go with foam Crete 1:53:29 which is the lowest sin a question I have is without any of 1:53:35 these grouping videos on these particular students and they're going to get the police stop there for this 1:53:40 week since day one yeah I don't know kbjm who did the design did 1:53:47 look at that they opened with it uh not Michelle so you're not relying on the shelves so leak everybody to stop at the 1:53:53 intermediate school at East no since it's been built right 1:53:59 that's that's daddy nice reason I hope that this group fixes it 1:54:04 maybe they got a better idea I hope so we need an option 1:54:11 yeah a pro foam Creek incorporation for a 1:54:18 combined bit of 230 000. yeah 1:54:24 that is through two schools 1:54:30 local motion to website now second uh can we just get 1:54:35 confirmation on the record this is within our capital budget for previous year right 1:54:41 yes it is foreign 1:54:54 so Mr Jameson didn't repeat your motion to make sure you make a motion to approve phone create for the combined 1:55:00 bid of 230 000 is that correct that's correct okay 1:55:06 um Ms Baker yes Mr Gannon yes Mr High yes Mr Hutton Mr Lane yes Mrs May yes Mr 1:55:12 will yes yes seven zero 1:55:19 Excellence for uh we'll be heading for the wheelchair lift 1:55:24 David County Board of Education complex you'll see that it's included in your packet is a bid to 1:55:32 repair the wheelchair lift um this is not been in our capital budget 1:55:40 we do have I believe money left from the painting project we weren't able to complete if you wanted to do it if not 1:55:47 you would just need to relocate your board meetings how long was that wheelchair lift or the 1:55:53 chair it's a chair lift not a wheelchair not been working uh it says wheelchair 1:55:59 will it lift a wheelchair 500 pounds capacity 1:56:04 but we're just a person they're saying in it it's never worked so I can 1:56:10 remember um it's worked it just says French was one of the last lame roster 1:56:17 uses yeah and actually quite working this year I mean it's been working at a 1:56:23 point in time this year Electronics electronic before 1:56:28 so this says uh replacement wheelchair 1:56:33 36 000 because it seem like a lot basically so that is a new one yes because it's 1:56:41 not effective report that rail that comes up and everything is going to be safe and new ones 1:56:48 sort of what I was told that the reason is they just won't warranty everything 1:56:54 if they're using part of something else as part of their own soon 1:57:00 you said the option was we could relocate board meetings that's what we were talking about don't 1:57:06 we still have to be in compliance even if it's not board meetings if it's just it's still public building 1:57:12 it is I think we're still there we have four games here 1:57:18 may speak to that I think the way to be in compliance if someone came to this office they want to 1:57:25 see Miss Thompson and they uh for under the auspices of the American 1:57:32 Disabilities Act as Thompson could come downstairs and meet with that person 1:57:37 so we can provide accommodations if anybody upstairs can go downstairs and yeah and do whatever is needed yes and 1:57:44 we even miss the boardroom from upstairs to downstairs thank you 1:57:52 so I I personally advances band I like having anymore 1:58:02 I like having board meetings at school it's a good thing I think we should actually cycle we talked about Cyclone 1:58:09 therape olives and using that as opportunities to do tours and stuff like that and you know 1:58:15 see some of the stuff that's going on but I I personally like a boardroom uh 1:58:22 so is there is there a space downstairs on the first floor of this field 1:58:28 that's comparable 102 if you knocked out 1:58:36 um the sheetrock the drywall that's between that partitions the offices right now 1:58:41 would be this size so but and maybe 1:58:51 in special education office if you knock out the drywall but Soviet we then go get bids for a 1:58:58 contractor to do that and then a contractor to put partitions up here just because of how we the way we get 1:59:05 bids it'll be the 56 000. if I hit a moment um so yeah personally I like the idea of 1:59:13 having a boardroom um I think our 1:59:19 and to me I understand Mr Bones what you're saying about we could accommodate someone well the 1:59:26 board meeting could have come I mean you could make the same arguments 1:59:33 not strong argument I would say if we can't I would say if 1:59:40 we can relocate the boardroom for the first floor for less money 1:59:46 you should do it 1:59:51 when I went to school here was this not too too close for us was this one big classroom I remember being this big of 1:59:58 course I was a lot this was one classroom one classroom but it might have had people 47 kids 2:00:07 yeah well I remember kids stepping at the state's desk to try to cover yourself her offices 2:00:19 I remember Miss Thornton downstairs in that area she thought Civics and 2:00:24 something else yeah but anyway so I know okay you know it is that we just well we don't have a 2:00:30 boardroom and we just skip around in different schools well we thought we 2:00:35 would skip it around let's talk about going to East Hickman Library one month 2:00:41 and then Hickman County High School back to high school 2:00:52 you know there's three school board members that drive a good business here and oh I come from 2:00:58 France yeah so yeah stop on the way I mean that's better for me actually yeah 2:01:03 so what's your concern with it about 2:01:10 I think I think having some board meetings at the school some does not have those not all of them yeah you know 2:01:16 we have a lot of work sessions I mean there's a lot of meetings actually right and yeah 2:01:23 and in general I think as a working team I think they're more 2:01:29 effective if we have a consistent work environment 2:01:39 I think the best argument is probably just the technically our 2:01:46 building is not going to be ADA Compliant whether we have board meetings here or not 2:01:52 right I mean live we would be Ada right you remember 2:01:59 all of the problems that they had by not having the courthouse over here Ada in compliant 2:02:04 I mean it was always a lawsuit or something somebody was so we'd probably be better off just to 2:02:11 this is the cost of one vehicle go ahead and make this ADA compliance 2:02:16 the building is good strong empty building so even so even if we 2:02:25 I mean it gets used so so rarely I'm telling you eight years I don't think 2:02:31 they've never seen it they won't fix it anymore they don't want to fix it because of not warranted it make 2:02:37 emotions are recognize Mr Mullins I'm sorry be a premature according to 2:02:44 miss brace there is a identical lift to to our left in the Old Courthouse 2:02:52 I don't know who owns the Old Courthouse so yeah do I yeah it's all about individual now 2:02:59 yeah yeah so I don't know if that's Mr Burns I don't know if that 2:03:05 person that gentleman would if he's using the lift and I don't know if we 2:03:12 could Salvage the part we need off of his lift to repair the current lift at a 2:03:19 much lesser price than fifty six thousand dollars I think it'd be worth it uh pursue that angle 2:03:27 uh because that would that would resolve the issue 2:03:32 that's that's according to this lady which uh so far has a 100 accuracy rate 2:03:42 it can be fixed I mean 2:03:47 I mean I think I think my company could bid on re-engineering the motor system 2:03:53 in it and do for less than fifty six thousand dollars I mean it's just that just seems like a lot it's not the most 2:03:59 the motor works it's the electronics that control this it's like going to forward and or Chevrolet or anything and 2:04:06 buying a brand new truck and they said who sold it to you but we don't have these electronic components to make it 2:04:12 work right right so according to the instruments according to Mr Martin who so far has a 2:04:18 99 2:04:33 okay so what if I know you don't like the idea dance 2:04:39 but what if we do the meetings this year at the big print schools grade their 2:04:46 schools here and then maybe we can find it in our budget for next year to put it 2:04:52 in to be fixed and you say there was something yeah I mean that's that's actually that exactly what she said 2:04:59 we could do it it's not in your Capital Outlet list currently there is a project 2:05:05 the East Elementary Paving that we did not do 2:05:11 so just because we're having construction 2:05:18 it'll have to be done it's in the budget for next year are we under a deadline to get this done as far as Ada I need 2:05:23 regulations 2:05:30 does it work s so another difference 2:05:41 I've never seen it work and I've seen people try to use it you know I remember Kathy tried to use 2:05:47 it one time all it takes is one person to follow civil rights complaint against 2:05:52 us and you've got a civil rights complaint that you cannot justify so I'll I'll make the motion to replace the 2:05:59 chair of the other for this video fifty six thousand five hundred dollars 2:06:05 are they the only people that do this foreign 2:06:16 around what's the war they may change their mind 2:06:21 electronic electronic warranties are usually notoriously not right not good 2:06:29 it's like your washing machine goodbye for three years right now the building is not complied 2:06:37 having board meeting room maybe maybe somewhere else is a little bit of a work arrive will probably get us by to make the 2:06:45 building supply out I made them up 2:06:52 um 2:07:00 Mr Damon yes Mr house no 2:07:05 Mr Hudgens yes Mr Lane 2:07:13 it's nice 2:07:22 most uh Mr will yes that's like this Baker no 2:07:33 motion process forward 2:07:42 prizes right it's one dollar or something you got all these tricks 2:07:47 so the um well if we need to later back like later on we can bring this back up 2:07:54 again but we need to to avoid any probability of 2:08:00 somebody doing what did they have what was our vote if the motion fails three 2:08:05 is three no one has no essence 2:08:14 let's just bring it up later on if we need to think about it see what we gotta 2:08:23 check out it somebody look at this uh 2:08:32 I'll pick with that Works worked on million dollars 2:08:38 we'll pull the circuit card out and see what we did we'll replace a certain card with a PLC 2:08:45 doesn't work but anyway if somebody has the diagrams on them 2:08:51 all right yeah well I'll put a crank down here I'm ready for a few minutes 2:09:04 okay it's gonna be real easy we didn't 2:09:10 receive any vehicles for the system um part of the reason one company I 2:09:16 reached out to before being that salesman passed away during the process so 2:09:22 happy to reach back out and move forward or whatever you thought about it and what 2:09:27 did you estimate yes it was going to come out uh the first company I reached out to is about 12 to 2:09:33 14 000 per site with allowed a ten thousand dollar 2:09:40 extra component I forget what that was there's about a third of margin chair right there so the I get that 2:09:52 so what is this is 2:10:11 your options are you can either read in it or since there were no bids you can 2:10:16 accept quotes reach out to that company in the episode 2:10:24 and compare it to the yeah 2:10:37 it's just a key fob system that every bus every white plate would would have and when they get fuel letters it would 2:10:44 count that people into that vehicle and that dropper each driver would have a number yes 2:10:50 that's the ID number for the drivers of the vehicle and uh 2:10:58 the fuel they were first United sober and you'd have put a device on the tank 2:11:04 out there in the middle school at the East and for oil so they teach that well there'd 2:11:10 be three sites after a propane a diesel then the gas that's here and then the gas gasoline propane one would have one 2:11:18 um yes it would would eventually not a days that's a that's a different 2:11:23 animal player okay but so it sounds like you have to attempt to get very good so but as you 2:11:32 were searching for these can you provide us the sites or what type of stuff you're looking at 2:11:37 website I'm not even going to be something out there if they're very much of a company yeah petrovian and and a 2:11:43 pilboy off your leaders in the next uh I used to 2:11:51 work in an industry where we but we didn't have to save the fuel man provided us with uh documentation you 2:11:59 know that each one had a credit card and even today I have one where I'm working in within had you had a oh you got an ID 2:12:07 number and if you put the mileage in and it would actually generate reports and this 2:12:13 way it would tell us and then that was just for using Fuel Man I mean well I'm sure there was a fee associated with 2:12:18 yeah there is an annual fee I think it's five to seven the first year is a thousand but I think after that it's 2:12:25 like five to seven hundred dollars annual annual cloud-based system that will generate reports uh we got my we 2:12:32 got miles per gallon and everything else 2:12:39 all right 2:12:44 stand for 23 24 symbol off golf course 2:12:50 included in your packet is the mou proposed for the 2:12:55 2023-2024 school year there are no changes to the ml again with the town of Centerville for use the football 2:13:01 accordingly almost to approve the golf course mou so 2:13:07 oh 2:13:13 Mr Hawk yeah is your husband yes that's your line yes this is his name yeah Mr 2:13:19 Lewis yes inspector yes Mr Bannon yes yes seven zero 2:13:26 foreign 2:13:38 this is just an idea for you guys um I was looking at other school systems in the state that have student 2:13:44 Representatives on the school board basically what they do is they can come 2:13:50 and join me in the discussion they can't um join in voting and they can't join in 2:13:55 on financial discussions but they can join in on any other discussions that we have on the school boards and I thought 2:14:01 that it would be a good idea to have one from East High School and went from Centerville Mass 2:14:08 of course they would have to be like a junior or senior because they'd have to be able to draw to where we are Michelle 2:14:14 was telling me that we already have some kind of Representatives already that might be able to fill these positions 2:14:21 are you think it would be the same person ongoing when you're I said for one whole year 2:14:28 right so the the school board sends typically 2:14:35 four students to the scope conference each year and if you wanted to 2:14:43 expand that if you chose to do this and you wanted those students as part of their year 2:14:49 responsibilities they would be the delegates 2:14:54 um they are chosen by their schools right now to go to this yeah World 2:15:01 guidance counselors and they have a sponsor each year that goes with him but under this program no you could just do 2:15:08 it then we could be the ones and choose them if we wanted to it could be whatever you wanted it to be 2:15:14 pick it up and write a resume and send it in if they were interested that much 2:15:19 or they're already under the scope program they're already some students that are involved in learning yeah they 2:15:27 recognize I want you to leave the conference this year at um they recognize 2:15:42 Hickman County is allowed to per High School uh now you don't have to have that many on the board uh that's up to 2:15:49 you but your your show conference you would still want to be able to send as many as you could that's just for that 2:15:54 two-day conference uh that if you wanted to you could take this 2:16:00 role and that'd be two of your representatives and then you have two more uh but that's completely unpaid 2:16:07 look into that yeah well I was just waiting to throw the idea how it feels there's a in their policy tspa has 2:16:14 several different some of them uh recommend for the class 2:16:20 president which I don't recommend that some of them recommend having students 2:16:26 who are interested in any type of government write an essay to the board and then the board narrow it down that 2:16:33 way and pick the candidates um I think Michelle's idea of using scope 2:16:39 is a good idea we just narrow it down to two out of the four they could write us an essay on why they would like to do it 2:16:46 and then we could pick out of the pool well yeah we could do that we could do a 2:16:52 semester we could give them a grilling like we did Mr mullets and see which one's the best 2:16:58 do we have to have a policy for those yes we do yes and I have several 2:17:03 different policies psbas get me that I can forward to all you guys I just thought that this would be a good idea 2:17:09 what to start at the new school year to have some [Music] 2:17:19 said the policy or put policy in the next packet yeah I'll send you all the 2:17:25 ones that he has to have sent me because there's several different ways to pick you know what we want in our particular 2:17:32 board stage um and then making ourselves do you are happy to stop okay 2:17:55 foreign 2:18:27 that's a good idea though I have it in them in the minutes to fit 2:18:33 it almost the policy on the g-line meeting 2:18:41 Pre-K textbook adoption 2:18:47 thank you to the text feel good option for pre-k 2:18:53 um the top three choices were released to us on May the 23rd 2:18:59 and from that I said those top three choices out to our principals and our 2:19:05 teachers for them to review and then to vote on their Top Choice 2:19:10 um we currently are using one of the top three choices connect for learning it's 2:19:16 through Kaplan uh we have been using that in our classrooms for almost five years and I gave you some information 2:19:25 there as well it consists of six units of study from connecting with school and 2:19:32 Friends their environments how structures are built exploring museums throwing a home garden and how we've 2:19:39 grown this is an interdisciplinary curriculum which means it includes math 2:19:46 science literacy and also a behavior management piece where it talks about social skills for our young kids and how 2:19:53 to develop those skills when thinking about that it's based upon the pyramid model which we are required to teach in 2:20:00 pre-k and the pyramid model talks about how students can self-regulate how they 2:20:07 control their emotions how to ask for help how to share the simple things that they may not know that they learn to do 2:20:14 before they come to school and we teach that in our pre-k program 2:20:19 um so when I got back the results from our principles and our teachers it was 2:20:24 unanimous if they would have to continue with connect for learning 2:20:30 strengths through our scope of services in the bpk program we do have to teach a 2:20:37 curriculum that is approved by the tdoe and like I said this one high scope and 2:20:43 created pre-flung were the three that were upgraded by the tvoe released to us on May the 23rd shared it with our folks 2:20:51 and then um they've had some a little bit of time to review maybe a week and then to let 2:20:57 us know what our their choice was and I think that the board agenda was 2:21:02 published before I could include the name of a curriculum free movie I think Mr Mullins might have or Miss 2:21:09 Gilbert shared a link with you today or yesterday or sometime to look through 2:21:16 the different components of the curriculum 2:21:21 I've been they've been using it for five years she has so and then I'd have to ask do we have 2:21:29 we do not I think we have a statement that says that it's in compliance with Tennessee rule on prohibition we do we 2:21:36 do do not have a statement the tdoe in our contract um 2:21:42 they went through that process to pick the top three ingredients I have reached out to the vendor to see if they have a 2:21:51 letter and I have not heard back from them and here's we talked about it today is that 2:21:57 well your Pre-K kids are not going to be reading any there's nothing here for them to read and all of our teachers 2:22:04 already know that it's against the law for them to uh 2:22:09 to teach the critical rights Theory or grab anything it's a prohibitive I mean 2:22:15 there's it in the law book there's a whole big section on what they can't they say and if they're not aware every 2:22:23 new teacher and everyone should be made aware of it they cannot be approaching it so uh yeah I mean I just looked into 2:22:30 a few of the books there uh didn't seem like there was was anything in it about it it's totally the books are totally 2:22:38 for the teachers there's some electronic programs I didn't get a chance to look at them uh 2:22:44 planning programs that you can put your stuff in but it's 2:22:50 even it's a teacher it's the total responsibility to take her there and 2:22:55 it's most of this stuff here is tactile and visual stuff for kids most of it's 2:23:00 It's manipulative manipulative base and Center base because that's how they do all their learning that's what's developmentally appropriate virtual a 2:23:07 four-year-old and sometimes we have three-year-olds based upon our enrollment um and so all of that information uh I 2:23:15 think it's on inside your packet I gained maybe on page 10 some of the page numbers cut off the other piece that we 2:23:22 teach is we are also required to teach a Founder approved foundational skills 2:23:27 program and we already do that we teach what kindergarten first and second teaches the Tennessee State approved 2:23:34 foundational skills program South first that's kind of in unit one here yeah and we have to teach that it's kind of like 2:23:41 we talked about on the left and even the eighth grade in the U.S teach your kids what you expect out of in the beginning 2:23:48 of the year and syllabus for your class and stuff so kind of kind of goes along 2:23:54 what a teacher should be doing anyway so so the prohibited concept 2:24:00 an instruction law it has nothing to do with textbooks I mean it's instruction so you can buy textbooks that don't 2:24:06 contain any of the prohibitive concepts and if you're still teaching it you'd still be invited so uh and you can buy 2:24:14 it with it not in there or either way I think most of your teachers already 2:24:19 know not to it's just my opinion that 2:24:25 before we approve some instructional materials 2:24:30 we should get confirmation of that that's my opinion I've said it before 2:24:36 do I think there's any in this precation no I don't but I think it's as a general 2:24:42 procedural method step um 2:24:47 I think we should get the publisher to give us a statement like we did before 2:24:54 I will say this 2:25:00 about like Federal fundraising like they're not rolled over year to year we have to spend them each year 2:25:06 there's money set aside this year to purchase this curriculum and of course 2:25:11 here it is June because we're just now getting this you know in late May to purchase this curriculum because the 2:25:18 expectation in this couple of services we received from the Department of Education is that will be implemented in 2:25:23 the fall so that's you know the time the time crunch there 2:25:29 um I do see what you're saying yeah 2:25:37 this curriculum as one that we have we used um in the past five years we've had no 2:25:43 we've had no issues with it um and we do especially when I have a 2:25:49 new teacher I sit down with them to go over the scope of services we go to the teacher lined up we do all that 2:25:55 the um to make sure that they understand what they should and should not be teaching yeah is everybody is everybody 2:26:04 Concepts yes and Mr Elkins and Mr Bean did that 2:26:09 training this year but Mr Elkins and I have done it in the past with that teacher code of conduct we go over that 2:26:15 with all teachers every year the uh the penalty are high 2:26:23 its first offense is two percent of your state funding which for us is almost half a million dollars that's for your 2:26:30 first offense should be in the contract for your second offense it's almost a million so 2:26:35 the the penalties are highlights violate this um ban 2:26:41 perfect uh instruction yeah okay well I just I'll say I said 2:26:49 before all these books not instruction materials should just be proactive to go get a statement to make sure they're in 2:26:56 front and that's what I try to do because but we didn't get this until yeah you said I'm saying we didn't know 2:27:02 they started telling us in January we will be adopting it for next year we should have it out to 2:27:10 you in March um so it was making me hurt when they released the top three so you know how 2:27:16 much money it'll be about 4 . 2:27:22 um for VPK it will be a little over sixteen thousand um Mr cannons to special ed programs 2:27:31 Pre-K special ed programs they also will Implement to so that we're implementing 2:27:36 the same curriculum and so thank Allison I guess there okay so there's 20 something a thousand yeah 2:27:42 okay about half 2:27:48 a week yeah I mean okay 2:27:53 but anyway 2:28:03 yeah the the problem uh is that I'm a vote Yes for this after I 2:28:10 swore I would and I agree that I agree with you I I 2:28:16 or I would but I'm gonna give this one I'm gonna 2:28:21 give this one a pass because it's Pre-K it's only twenty thousand dollars at risk spending I still think we should 2:28:27 get it we should still ask for it if we'll still get it for us and I still intend to not both yes I think we gotta 2:28:36 plus I think we got A plus here that she did go out and try to get that response 2:28:41 ahead of time yeah and we waited till the meeting here and asked for it the last time yeah so okay 2:28:50 it's not it's not like the wit and wisdom you go out there and you can find all kinds of problems with it and and 2:28:58 this one you go out there and search and you can't find any uh I couldn't find 2:29:03 anything I don't think did you search it I searched it didn't see anything negative on the critical racism 2:29:11 Pre-K oh wow I'll say thank you 2:29:18 yeah I would like to see forms feel about in entirety with whatever connection yes 2:29:25 sir and this one would have had connector learning on it but I think when this went out into the packet we 2:29:30 had my teachers were still working in my principles and voting it's been the last Thursday or something you'll see her her 2:29:38 date that she submitted this to go on the board agenda was 519 because I wanted to make sure we got it on there 2:29:43 because and we need to they didn't even have the top three out in 2019 2:29:51 the Pre-K textbook adoption can we put the title in there can I add that to 2:29:57 them yeah thank you and Mr Cambridge secondary 2:30:06 yeah is your husband yes Mr Lane yes it's me 2:30:12 yes Mr Willis yes Miss Baker aye Mr Hammond yes 2:30:17 yes seven zero thank you thank you 2:30:24 all right revise board policy 6.319 first reading yes sir um on this one I 2:30:31 think we needed to add grades 1 through 12 for the alternative school the policy 2:30:41 and we added one because we have first graders in alternative school I don't think so but 2:30:48 I think we added those grades as possibly a possibility right now the 2:30:55 board originally voted in October of 21 to make it grades one through twelve when the policy came up for revision at 2:31:03 some other schooling the model policy went back through so you can change that 2:31:09 but that's what the board voted on in October 21. I know what I said in Mary County they had a they had a Elementary 2:31:17 on but I'm hoping that we can cover a lot of that problems that exist with a 2:31:22 pre-k program takes some extra intervention 2:31:28 I have seen an alternative school for Elementary kindergarten 2:31:35 okay we have a motion to pick a motion to prove 6.319 2:31:41 First Street 61319 on first reading on a flavors 2:31:47 [Music] about it thank you ignorance for policy 3.218 to seconds 2:31:55 reading the change in 2:32:06 changing um I've mentioned some things in the work session according to the lawyer one yeah 2:32:13 regarding allergies make emotional 2:32:18 3.218 that's 0.2 . 2:32:24 that uh WE Post own second reading until we get those editions later 2:32:31 okay so motion all in favor say aye aye aye folks 2:32:43 for reviews um 61400 to 644081 2:32:54 we're recommended changes by psba for please stop 2:33:06 all right no motion too uh complete foreign policy review 6.46.4081 2:33:13 second second motion second on Thursday all right all right thank you folks 2:33:22 copy machine lease agreement in your package you have a summary of 2:33:28 The Importance agreement that Eric and I have been helping with uh RJ Young 2:33:34 about uh concerning uh approximately 15 uh are copiers that are here at the central 2:33:42 office and at some of the schools throughout currently um last few years we've averaged about 2:33:49 5400 a month in the maintenance service agreement 2:33:54 with those all of these copiers are old 2:34:00 I think is the name of here how old is the two downstairs um 2:34:05 so uh and the cost of the maintenance because of their age 2:34:14 of Maintenance of those because of their age and also the overages that can be 2:34:20 applied to those uh are extremely high this five-year 2:34:25 lease would provide us new machines for five years if we replace all 15 which 2:34:32 we're not sure that that's what we'll do yeah based on usage there might be a couple that we or lack of usage that we 2:34:40 may get rid of just on the maintenance side it will save us about seventy two hundred dollars a year 2:34:51 over to calls the older the machine is the higher the 2:34:57 overages cost is this is a contract that is a state contract that is was 2:35:02 negotiated through Metro Nashville Public Schools and so it was being piggybacking off of that experience 2:35:09 yeah he's made by so many sheets it cost us 2:35:15 thousands of dollars there are 10. there's an overages part that's on that if you go older it can cost you 2:35:22 thousands thousands of dollars then at the intermediate school at East we went quite a bit over on 2:35:29 on the cost of of those why did we do that I could another machine been bought 2:35:35 to prevent that uh should we have leased more 2:35:41 seats that's what we're trying to address now uh um and so we believe this will take care 2:35:48 of it in multiple ways we report that or it's reported annually we are requesting 2:35:55 at a minimum that uses be reported quarterly if not monthly and I think we 2:36:01 may go monthly on some of them so that we'll be able to address that before that becomes an issue I mean overages 2:36:08 because the older the machine the higher the average and costs also like so right well some of this overage 2:36:15 due to maybe making copies of workbook pages rather than buying workbooks because I 2:36:23 don't know my understanding from what I found out was that they were making copies of workbook rather than 2:36:30 this because they run out of workbooks I'm not going to understand that I mean that's something to consider I've seen 2:36:36 it happen when I was a teacher and it's cheaper to buy the workbook than it is today 2:36:41 do you know if you have taken into your account um because the I already uh the 2:36:48 kindergarten through yeah um fifth grade is all already and so I 2:36:54 know some of the teachers were concerned about the cloth coffee cloth because for the younger kids they're going to be 2:37:00 able to print so that the kids can have that um additional work in front of them with 2:37:06 pen and paper have you guys taken that into account so if you look at the 2:37:11 difference between the two on the original we had covers uh overage 2:37:17 covered cover copies of 443 000 sorry 950 black and white 12 500 per 2:37:24 month color down here on the proposed agreement that's increased to 73 500 per month uh 2:37:34 and a much less substantial rate and twenty thousand six hundred fifty on the 2:37:39 color uh side of it so while not necessarily addressing specifically that fact I 2:37:47 think this addresses that fact again just on the maintenance side and having the machines you're going to be saving 2:37:53 about 7 200. on however just which we hope not to have overages but where we 2:37:59 do need those that could help us 2:38:05 so your baby getting about 30 000 extra black and white a month 2:38:25 is all online now for the younger students those books 2:38:30 are considerable right and so we bought we've also could we bought them to everything 2:38:39 okay and with this being recorded monthly or quarterly 2:38:46 whichever round we decide to go this will allow the principles to kind of be heads up on it instead of at the end of 2:38:53 the year they'll find it out and each teacher has their own folk you need to tell them yeah and so I could find out 2:38:58 why what are you doing and a lot of it can be because they're teaching objective that's not in the book and 2:39:04 they have to make their own sheets so I'd make a motion that way you know step the least Supreme 2:39:11 a second question 2:39:21 like Mr hedgens Mr wife yes Mrs Lane Mr 2:39:28 Williams yes Mr Speaker yes Mr banner yes Mr Hyde yes yes and just outside now we tell Tucker the 2:39:37 uh representative here that he had to make Debbie Amanda and Miss Elaine happy 2:39:43 in whatever reason hopefully that will happen 2:39:49 externally if you remember I don't know it wasn't 2:39:57 last month I guess we put out a doors and windows bid for 2:40:02 for the schools particular Elementary School and the two middle schools to replace all the exterior doors and 2:40:09 windows um we didn't receive any bids for that and so our management company my bank 2:40:15 account and requested something uh proposals or quotes and we we received one 2:40:22 so it is for one point 2:40:29 and that is for three schools only um their General their contractor's 2:40:35 license with the state only allows them to do projects up to 1.7 million and so they did not include East 2:40:42 Elementary in that bit more right 2:40:49 that well the East Elementary is the emote should have been the most expensive problem 2:40:55 um it's broken down Centerville Elementary is 886 000. hit the middle 2:41:01 383 and East Middle is 397. 2:41:09 they didn't give you a price of each of them he did not he can't even proposal 2:41:14 because of that 1.7 million dollars okay because it it if you 2:41:20 if you accept his quote then it becomes responding so he can't legally he can't 2:41:27 do because he's at all foreign excuse which ones you want uh 2:41:32 he wanted to get this most bang for his book yeah I understand and he was the only 2:41:39 the only quote in this would be Esser three dollars um but he's saving some Heating and 2:41:44 Cooling I'm sure right the windows can only do that now we would hope yeah I can't speak to that for certain but what 2:41:51 we would hope it would be how much money we got online um we've done a revision with the state 2:41:58 and and I believe we've got um 2.3 2:42:04 million somewhere somewhere in that 2.3 million dollar range in that line of 2:42:09 them 2:42:15 but if we're uncertain as to do state law about the window film 2:42:20 and because it says if you replace anything regarding people that's correct and and 2:42:27 we are getting besides all that and that would have to be 2:42:32 it would be after July 1st well do we want to ask them for just divorce isn't 2:42:38 the quote that no if you replace the words you have to do it again yeah because they're glass 2:42:46 any exterior remodel job you would have yeah 2:42:52 you have to put the window film Ed at least at a minimum you have to do window film that 2:42:58 helps with nutrition into the building and that and that's in effect now we're going to go into effect 2:43:07 more regulations as well for safety but we already need uh that second vestibule 2:43:13 of the things we already made those well is our essay paper for the windows 2:43:18 and the film we don't know the cost of the film yet but there could be I'm just not sure 2:43:25 anyway right I think that's a good idea because instead of us taking that on out of the fun we talked about taking that 2:43:31 fun family yeah the state is going to make some funds 2:43:37 available um or make it where you can apply for those 2:43:42 funds in July though has this 1.7 million 2:44:01 [Music] 2:44:08 there we go once we can't find the right visit yeah and that's 2:44:14 just off all the other districts have the money also with the extra money yeah that drives the cost up for everything 2:44:20 and this will be the biggest project left in I serve there's we did put 300 000 in for 2:44:30 new entry systems and we're not sure that that's enough for that project but 2:44:36 we are 80 things would be a co-op for just so we've 2:44:43 started there with cancer my tell us that you thought that the 2:44:48 film might be around a million a million and a half that was a million was a 2:44:54 higher for all stores now we have seen 2:45:00 or maybe people you have got it was it was real it was 50 cents worth yeah 2:45:07 so if we remodel these all these tools and we have 700 2:45:14 000 left in eser we have enough money to pay for the film for those 30 schools 2:45:19 possibly possible I would think if chameleon was for all eights yeah I mean that was just 2:45:27 a rough estimates you never really know that plus the 2:45:32 state is supposed to if we can apply for those grants and get some money too so that will help so it sounds like though 2:45:38 the three schools that he picked part of the three schools we would pick is that 2:45:43 is that true yeah these elementary school so I wonder why that probably should be the I 2:45:51 thought I said while ago that project like the East Elementary I mean Center 2:45:56 one Elementary was at 886. East Elementary is going to put you over over a million to do that project 2:46:04 because you have to have a lot of great work done and you have to 2:46:09 add Stoops to classrooms um just a lot more involved with that 2:46:15 project and so that I mean at 1.380 he'd rather do a 1.6 so one Instagram 2:46:22 because of the high difference we have to put in ramps you have to put in emergency exit ramps 2:46:29 coming out the back of some of the rooms where they currently have bar exit for Windows and you have to think too this 2:46:36 this board is going to have to make a decision on the long-term future of equipment Elementary School 2:46:44 in any more equipment do you want to put government you know how much where's your limit on right rebuilding it and 2:46:51 versus investing in it 2:47:01 what do you do what's your recommendation or do you have a um I think you spend the money 2:47:07 um and you can get more for your money with these three schools or if you want 2:47:14 to do these Elementary you can but you're probably going to go down to two schools and maybe one 2:47:21 yeah so could we let them do this project 2:47:29 and then do another project afterwards maybe if we got some money from the stage 2:47:34 Elementary with the money from the states um Olympic hours today yeah 2:47:43 that there's only 40 million dollars in that front of the state and so if you divide that out 2:47:50 of course about 450 000. 2:47:55 it's roughly 2.3 in the in the one that's in towards okay and as the as you come down next 2:48:02 year as you start looking at finalizing sr2 you'll have some things that will come in probably under budgets 2:48:09 and so you may have some more revisions to make to your sr3 plan and you may be able to pick up the 2:48:16 school and do a separate bid and where this gentleman can bend again I mean I 2:48:22 I like the idea of let's go execute on one of these jobs let's get it done 2:48:27 so much money we got left maybe some more but 2:48:33 I just don't like the idea of this contractor selecting which school right what are the chances he selected the 2:48:39 optimal schools right we don't know it was we asked for four schools and he 2:48:45 took off the one that visited worked for you I mean like you said earlier yeah I 2:48:51 mean and maybe it's not the old school right because we don't want to put money into a full building is much bigger 2:48:59 that I'm just I don't know I don't know what the best schools to focus what those doors are on 2:49:07 for you how can we find that out well when you look at your facility plan that we did when we did the assessment 2:49:13 for the buildings here are two elementary schools were rated the lowest on doors and windows uh and then your 2:49:21 medals um if any doors and windows Replacements are going to increase your score 2:49:27 for those buildings rankings uh on the facilities for that they do and so 2:49:33 that's where this project came from and it being an sr3 project because doors and windows are energy efficient 2:49:40 and healthy you know mitigate illness um that's how they're 2:49:46 a good project dresser so how do we pay adult schools to spend 2:49:52 this money it's got three wood caffeine on three schools 2:49:57 my way I'd say two elementary schools we could go back to disguise hey you know 2:50:02 one second uh you know what we we've decided that we really want these two schools done you know 2:50:08 right we can do that so um 2:50:14 didn't he have a 1.6 then he'll come back Jerry you know what 2:50:20 I mean yeah well no we get the big Warner why would we let him take him if we're 2:50:27 talking like this why don't we let him take you get two elementary schools you can't do but one of them but I don't 2:50:33 know if you can or can't right I'm not sure well if we could do no he's got a cap he can't he can't go over again 2:50:41 the elementary debates Elementary 900 sales 2:50:48 yeah he can only get one now I didn't do that 2:50:53 that's it during the process of the illness stuff so so if he just replaces 2:50:59 them and does both elementary schools that's it 2:51:04 for the film I say we needed three schools that he so that that gets us covered for his schools and then we look 2:51:12 at East when we get we find out how much we're getting from the state and we see 2:51:19 if we're coming into Thunder budget with some other projects we can put maybe that money with what we're getting from 2:51:25 the state and get closer to to doing ease but in the meantime we still get three schools 2:51:32 maybe by the time we get down to three score you get to start eating and the other one is right I mean I guess all I 2:51:39 was saying is why wouldn't you fix why wouldn't you replace the windows that would hold this in the worst shape 2:51:45 that's all I was saying yeah and I think why wouldn't you do that well because it's most expensive and so instead of 2:51:51 getting three schools you might get one and then you don't 2:51:56 even know the long term if you're going to keep that school like or if you're gonna if you know if you're fitting 1.7 2:52:03 million dollars because by the time you fix it and at the the film and stuff you may be at your 2:52:08 1.7 at that one school project yeah so then you've got all this money in one 2:52:14 school that sells School the school system and we may not even we may have to do something so it's like Michelle 2:52:20 said it's a it's a decision we're gonna have to make or we're going to keep pumping more money into it or we 2:52:25 but in the meantime we can use the best or money which has to be spit and get through school but that's that's how I 2:52:31 look at it an option is to go back and get a different bit yeah yeah I mean we can go back and get it 2:52:37 but I I'm on Facebook whatever I agree spending money but for getting years four years 2:52:45 a year to spend another year and a half 2:52:52 however I'd make a motion that we um use the bids or get the bid go with 2:53:01 the three bid whatever yeah and um proceed with 2:53:06 getting those School whether it's a doors for the three schools for the 2:53:12 three schools one second 2:53:20 all right roll combo Mr Lang yes this night yes yes Mr Wills 2:53:28 yes recycled yes yes Mr gaming yes Mr Hawks Mr headings yes yes 2:53:36 foreign contract 2:53:44 ual City I've been here 2:53:49 in your pack it is a copy of a engineering electrical engineering 2:53:56 design contract with Intec this is in relation to the replacement of the fire alarm 2:54:03 system at e-sigmund Intermediate

job observation during the schedule period of construction so we're requesting your 2:54:25 approval to enter Institute contract 2:54:36 and this is just for Designing everything for us there's no no actual work uh if anything physically done 2:54:46 which is required by well motion a second broke up 2:54:54 miss me yes Mr Mills yeah Ms Baker sister Gannon yeah Mr Holland yes Mr 2:55:00 Hutton yes Mr Lang yes yes 2:55:08 uh in your packet as of Thursday you have a list it's handwritten but what 2:55:14 the remaining uh schools 2:55:22 currently are they may have changed as of today a little bit I do not know during our 2:55:28 discussion a couple weeks ago about this and the weather schools uh to start 2:55:33 writing checks or not there are some line items that you approve in the budget each year that we 2:55:40 will pay for items for the schools and then if those 2:55:46 funds are not used up we send those uh monies out to the schools at the end of the year uh I'm suggesting that we use 2:55:54 uh line item141-721-30344 which is payments 2:56:01 schools and others it has ten thousand dollars per School in there to pay 2:56:07 these to write checks to cover these charges the schools will still try to 2:56:12 collect those fees over time uh and if they do so then that 2:56:18 will be uh you know if you're going to the school account they will not have an inverse good service for that because 2:56:23 we've weld already I've done that but we need your approval to be able to do why 2:56:28 did you leave East Hickman Middle School out off that list because 2:56:38 I think here that's what I thought why did that not 2:56:44 have any debt parents pay because you've got donations 2:56:49 you got a manager out there that was on top of it since last year calling and 2:56:55 doing anything she was sending out letters 2:57:01 from my understanding because I called and asked but why it was low back then the schools have done a really good job 2:57:07 of communicating all of them have Michelle Gilbert had gotten a letter um 2:57:14 we owed 35 what was it 35 cents because he thought he wanted me to go to 2:57:20 school one day get the doctor's appointment and then he had to eat lunch so anyway but so they've done a really good job of communicating is there a 2:57:27 reason why this isn't done with a budget because that's kind of work it said 2:57:34 no this is actually we have this line item we write these checks out to the scores out here they're expensive okay 2:57:40 during the budget this would just be riding these out of that and then pay it 2:57:47 we just reimburse the schools Hickman Middle School is also very low so they must be doing something right officers 2:58:06 um you have to pay it first I believe I believe so 2:58:13 um and then we'll then we reimburse the schools yeah 2:58:20 is this debt follow them up to graduation if it need me this won't take their dad away they're 2:58:27 going to uh but we will still try to collect uh 2:58:32 okay well actually the the Mr Hudgens make 2:58:38 the motion yes okay 2:58:43 and Mr lion did you second yes ma'am to prove the reimburse to the schools 2:58:50 for the lunch charger okay wrong we'll call vote 2:58:58 okay um Mr Willis yes Mr Speaker yes Mr 2:59:04 cannons yes Mr Hobbs yeah 2:59:10 yes yes senator 2:59:17 thank you last one is forward policy
