 At 5.30, any agenda revisions, public comments, or correspondence? Okay, so that's good. According to board of your organization. So we need to elect vice chair. Do you have any nominations for vice chair? I would be amenable to be the one that no one wants to do it. Anomaly, I mean, Steven. I second that. Okay. Both those in favor for playing Steven, if there's vice chair, please say hi. Hi. All right. Okay, can we make a established, do we want to stay with our same time for monthly meetings? Is that okay? I would ask that you stay with the time and date that you're on. We would make a motion that we maintain the same thing in time for regular monthly meetings. It's third Monday at 5.30. It's the third Monday of each month. Beginning at 5.30. I'll second that. Those in favor of motion conceding, please say aye. Aye. Opposed? The established, do you need to stay for an official position? So I would recommend to the board that you use the Times Argus, who are currently using them at then. And I believe the school, the town office isn't the least of the three. We use, you guys have always done three, even though you need two. Yeah. As the official locations. We'll make a motion. We keep it the same. I'll second it. Those in favor of bringing official post notifications, please say hi. Hi. Hi. I'd like to represent the alternate to the Washington Center. So I nominate Floor. Yeah. As the representative for executive. Can I nominate you as the alternate? I'm willing to do it if no one else, if someone wants to do it. But no, I don't do it. I know how to do it. I've said in both of them. Yeah. Yeah. I was trying to go as late as that one. So we'll make it as one motion. Is that okay? Do it. Yeah. Yeah. We thought it was a good one. So something like that. All those in favor of moving the representative to the executive committee and the alternate. Please say hi. Hi. Hi. I'd like three voting members to this. What looks like we just elected floor and Stephen according to that note. So Darcy has been our third one. Is that correct? I make a motion that we have the Darcy plus the floor and Stephen. Those in favor of moving the motion. Do you have all of that? We're going to pick. We might be going a little too fast. Just the last one. Okay. Floor and Stephen. As voting members. And I second it. Approved. All those in favor, please say hi. Hi. Okay. So now we feel that. And he said that we will continue to do our committees for the time being. And changes they'll change. But for now. So. I was in negotiations. And I'm still doing it. So sure. So should we try to do it as a slave? Yeah. Most people do it as a slave. And then policy. It's me. Transportation. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. Okay. I'll make an emotion to elect Steven as negotiations. Okay. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. That's Alicia. The principal, yeah. I would just say that you say it's the principal of the Yale Magic School. Do we need them in? Yeah, she did. I'll make a motion to appoint Alicia Lightford as the chairman of the board, sir. I think the recommendation. By name or do we think the recommendation was by position? By position. Oh, okay. Okay, sir. I will make a motion to appoint the principal. Please. Please. I'll be your principal as the chairman of the board. Seconded. Seconded. Yeah. So if that's best at you, why do we have to do it? You're asked to do it. Do it. That's the board. It's prior to reorganization. Well, we don't have to. She can point to it. Because sometimes an SRO is the School of Resource Officers. Oh, okay. Maybe 32, it's the Institute. So we have been having all these very short meetings and we have managed to not approve our meetings. Mm-hmm. So I have a motion to approve the minutes do you have? Do we have a, do we have a discussion? First or after? After. Okay. I'll second it. Yeah. On the three seven, the minutes reflect that I nominated Darcy for the clerk. They're just backwards. Darcy nominated me for the clerk. I think unless I'm mistaken, but 2.2 on the three seven minutes, which is page 12. Any other change? That was all I had. Here in non, those discussion and all those in favor of the late of minutes as amended. You say aye. Aye. And I turn to gentlemen. So in preparation for our April 9 district meeting and vote. So you have a room and put together the PowerPoint that you had in town meetings. We could use that again. Nothing's really changed on that. So we were gonna do that, we'll use that for April 4th. Right, right. But if you wanna use it in other places, you can. If you even wanted to do a voiceover, you could do that. And then right now I actually saw a draft of the, because there's not a town report, we're outside the town report window, I shouldn't say because there isn't, because there was a town report. But the budget's outside the town report window. We have to produce and send something to the voters. And I've been recommending to everyone to not make things different. So we have a whole budget packet that's taken your letter, Ruben, when you were the chair that wrote for the board, it really didn't need to be altered at all. But that's the beginning of it. And then it has the budget presented along with tax calculations and all that that wasn't in the town report. Ben Merrill, who we work with with all our publications now, we've got Jetstream services getting going to do automatic mailing to all we have from Rosie to addresses of all the residents where all the voters live. So we're getting ready to push send on that. It has to be to the voters 10 days prior to the election. So I think it's going out this week for him. Good. So we've got that all set to go. I mean, you could have had the option to do a postcard and tell the board to get it online. And I just thought that was too much for this year and subsequent years. Are we gonna have to do another mailing when the district board wants to? Yes. All this is costing us. It's by statute that you have. You don't have to do a mailing. You could do a postcard that said, if you'd like a copy, please call or you may access it on this website. But I think right now it's where my recommendation to all boards has been send it. It's what people are used to, we can change that. So I'd be glad to do whatever else you need for the district meeting and vote, but those are the pieces we're getting going on right now. We think we've got, you know, Rosie's got everything ready to go for the election piece for the ninth or up here. So I hear census and the mailing is going out and everybody's okay with that. If I came up to the April 4th, we had to change the time. So we were talking, we said we'd be here with us, but April 4th is also the school learning celebration. A celebration of learning at the college. So we were gonna take advantage of that and set up in the gym. We're not gonna have to pass to the Boreum with people wanting to see their kids' celebration of learning, not hear this. Yeah, so what we thought is that we wouldn't do it, we wouldn't do, you know, we would leave it, we would run the presentation, because we did a presentation for town meeting. We would run the presentation with Dean Hensley. Just give him the lights off for this presentation. Well, we would be, if I could, you know, two could be outside, three could be inside, and we would have what we've done before, I think you were on the board, right, when we did this and maybe it was before you just try to, you know, give the option to people to come in. I was here for informational things, it wasn't like a town meeting. We were in the cafeteria, but we thought we would go to the gym because it has the ability to have the connection to. They don't have anything going on for solvers. In the gym? No, there's nothing in the gym. Yeah, Alicia, I said either the cafeteria or the gym. Either, either one. That's fine. There's stuff going on in the library, which was the other option, but too. And I thought, I suggested a floor that just put the PowerPoint on a loop and you could answer anyone's questions. You could have, we're getting like 50 to 75 extra print copies of the booklet. So if anyone has any questions you could ask and you could just put a sign up, you know, we're here to give you information about the budget if you'd like to come in and ask questions, blah, blah, blah. But then you guys could wander around too in the building and see the great night that is a celebration. And this conversation started because we were trying to figure out, I just wanted to have a child care. And they were like, oh no, we had this celebration. So we don't need to care, so we're ready to care. So we'll have to close the front porch for our community members that are not characters also. But also it'd be good because they'll get to see what's going on in school. We'll be a little bit too crowded, but we would have to hit folks. We wouldn't have a sleight of kids or we would have actual room in school. So it'd be a little crowded, but we would just take advantage of it since it's a really warm and everything. So are you guys comfortable with that? Yeah, I'm supposed to work till 7.30 that night, but I think I kind of... As long as you have a room, you don't even need a quorum for the information. Because we're not making any... I think I can get there, but... We won't be... I think it's just getting a presentation from the community to throw it up on you. I haven't. And then you have to be there in the celebration of our names. Oh yeah, we would have to be here. Yeah, I'll be there, but I would like to... Yeah, no, you should be there. Because that's the whole point of the... Of potentially I'll be there, I'll have to wait until someone might be in the negotiation session. One, two, or four. I will be in the chat for sure. Yeah, I sent that email out. If I don't have a conflict with the negotiation session. Are we going to run up longer than the celebration or are we going to just do the hours of the celebration? I think just the hour of the celebration. Yeah, that's what... We were trying to figure out if we could block something in the beginning or something at the end, but we thought it would be better if we just had people free flow. I think the way Bill described it, we're going to loop and just say... We're just there to answer questions. We'll ask you out for the celebration. So it's 537. Yeah, I think so, yeah. Yeah, 537. Yeah. And I can look it up. I read his letter right now. I think it was that. Isn't it his letter? I'll write it for you in a second. That's a great... That is tremendous activity, that celebration. Yeah, so it would be really good. Celebration 537. And then for April 9th, since we have... We're having a critical meeting on Wednesday, we talked briefly about proposing... I don't know if our four of us to do the same thing, but for April 9th, we're proposing that you can see every school agreement in that chapter, so you can get more parents to... We're going to... Community. It's already the 8th. The 8th? No, you can't. No, it's the... So the budget vote's already... The budget vote's the 8th. 9th. But let's... Oh, we have that Unified Union meeting on the 8th. And that's going to be similar to what we already had it, only hopefully not get stopped. Hopefully the one that actually does something. But I guess I can separate this and talk about this on the community, but I just wanted to... Did we have childcare at the last one? No. No. And I think it would be... That's my personal feeling that it would be helpful because I know there were some parents that couldn't come for their... They didn't have that option, so we could discuss it with the other ones and then give some guidance to develop if that's what we want to do. So I just wanted to run that by you guys. I know I'm trying to have a job here and there's some nominal costs. I mean, just share the costs. You ready? Okay. And would we have you 32 students doing it? I mean, who would be providing the childcare? That's... So we got to figure that out. Yeah, okay. So first let's just bring it up to the community that they think that... I don't know if that... I don't know that being brought up. I don't know that being brought up. Years or whatever, yeah. All the questions about info nine through four. So we're going to act with this thing. So you'll see, I mean, I sent you all this afternoon late. I was trying to work on it since about last Thursday was trying to put together dates. Lindy, I'm going to thank you last time. You helped me when I did a couple of things that I missed on my draft. So please look at it. And that's what I said in my email this afternoon. This is my first draft of this. So if there's something that looks like it's out of whack, just let me know. Or if I missed something that should be on there, let me know. I tried to place things based on three or four different versions of calendars and different things going on. So people knew all the meetings from here until the end of the school year. So I haven't looked at the dates myself, but can we have, so I know she can't issue those the petitions or whatever until, but could she bring them on the eighth? So if everything goes through that we could, at least the two that are running could get that. So the reason I'm asking selfishly is I'm gonna, I can take them and bring them here and get signatures and do it pretty rapid fire. So if I could get them that night, it would be. My answer would be yes, but I need to talk with the town clerks and where they feel comfortable. That's some of the pieces. And what you guys, it makes sense. Are you planning on running for the transition? The clerk? That's where the clerk and the chairperson were at. Originally you were on the board, but is your, you're on the transition board, is your intention to run for? The unified union? Yeah. I guess. So I've heard really thought about it. Maybe, have we talked about it? Maybe? I think my old friend is just looking at them, but yes. Have we talked about it at some point? Is anyone from U32 boardroom? I do not know. From the East. Carly won't be, but Karen will be. Karen might. No, I don't. I didn't think she was. From what part of the boardroom? I don't know. It doesn't matter, right? Yeah, it doesn't matter. I mean, I don't know. We have two for us would be two, correct? Our lab. Yeah, for the first, I don't know, I don't know. That's what we go for, I don't know. So, in Act 46 update, besides the dates that we all have. I would just say with that calendar that I put together there, it's pretty tight. So, I mean, it is low. Everything. To get to a June 25th budget vote. And have we had any clarification about if we don't pass the budget before July 1st? Well, there's guidance from the secretary. And I know that there's talk in the legislature where they might go. But I don't, I haven't had a chance to read or submit it if it was in there. Yeah, H39, additional computer is a fact. But on H39, they do provide good guidance and it's better. But H39 also includes delaying implementation Act 46 for over a year. Right, but there's also, there's different talks about if there isn't a budget voted. Yeah, so if we were not to, I'm trying to. Do you have the text of the bill right there? So for, I would recommend that we don't answer it because we have a text in front of us. I'd be glad to call it up if you'd like it to. My computer died, but I'm pretty sure I have it. Yeah, because things are. They keep changing. Yes. And people are saying things that aren't really in the bill. Exactly. But that they're feelings of them and. Yeah, unless it's in there. I was getting confused when I was reading. He said, she said kind of there, so. The operation of deadline for school district mergers under the state board shall be in July 1st of September. And I think the development board does not determine the duration of date of the merger under some division 1A. This is, if they understood, so A, if the first budget of the newly formed district has not been approved by voters on or before June 30th for the next expel year, the agency for education shall authorize an amount of education on spending for that newly formed district equal to the cumulative education spending amount authorized by the most recent voter group school projects for informing districts, multiply, I believe, with respect to 1% total multiply. The percentage that represents the average statewide increase from the prior fiscal year to the current fiscal year in school district education. Spending authorized by the voter of the school district budget is based on that as we see by the agency for education before June 14th or the prior fiscal year. So if we all approve budgets. So it doesn't mean, if there isn't a voter approved budget, that's for the merged district. The new budget is this current year, time, this current year times one plus the average increase of all the budgets that were submitted before June 14th. So if the average across the state increase was 2%, it would be 1.02 times this current year's budget. That's correct. So independent of, if we pass the budget. If we don't pass the budget. If we don't pass the budget. I don't know. If we pass the budget as this school, not as the merged district. That doesn't make any sense. Doesn't matter. If we pass the budget as the board. Yeah. So that, and that is in the Senate's bill, it's got to, as we all know, go to conference committee and then, so will that be there or not? I would suggest our take is, the legislature is discussing, discussing ways to have a budget if the vote's not in time. And it's still in the roll. I would just hate to get into the weeds. Even what is in the bill to me isn't really super clear. So I think the thing to me to answer the question is, the legislature's working on it. They're aware of the problem. You feel comfortable that they will come up with a plan. You could reference what they currently have, but that's likely down the road changes as well. They're aware of the need to put a mechanism in place that there's not a budget by the 30th. The trouble would be for us, I think, is what the Senate has currently recommended that budget would be less than our community budgets for this year. I don't know that. So I would suggest that you say that. Laurie wanted to go do calculations and I actually stopped her. I said, right now we need to focus on local budgets. I'll focus on that once there's a transition board and we can have that discussion. So I- But it's also kind of a moot discussion because whatever's gonna happen is gonna happen. We don't have any statements of other than being aware of what it is to explain it to constituents. But I think from my perspective, I think that it's important to know that actually something is attempting to be happening because I think the 87.5% number is scared to do so. I think just having that statement that the legislature is working on something is important. And they heard the secretary in his letter and his suggestion that he didn't think that was relevant because he- got there and he said that he was recommending to the legislature to do that. Yeah, this section's pretty clear though. It's by the most recently voter-approved school budget. So that's why I'm wondering about this year. This year could be- District. That's right. a new district. It could actually be- Let's let it work through general fiscal, general legal and all that. But let's not try to over-analyze it. Seems to change day to day. Well, I think we hear nothing like that. That wasn't your plan? Let's not do that. No, no. So, talking about this bill that is on the legislative knowledge 39, it would be good for you guys to reach out to the senators that represent us and express how we've been about this delay because I remember the VA, the voting against that delay after we got a lot of input from the state. If you have a delay, especially for us, this is really harmful. So should we take a position as a vote on that? Since we're here, you know, since we're here today, we could- Well, if it is, who's gonna communicate it to the senators? I'm happy to send it to the Senate, if you guys feel like that that would be helpful. It's okay to me, I mean, I don't favor delaying, that's the feeling of everyone on the board. It might be a better way to communicate this entire board. We would all have to feel that way. I agree. I feel that way. I've been wanting this to move along for a while. So I don't think it requires a motion. I think we can just authorize our chair to communicate when I'll make a motion that we authorize our board chair floor to communicate to our senators. Is that a fair enough way to say it? Yeah. Meaning the ones that are serving us, our senators. That I think he's gonna kill your elementary school board does not support the delay in the implementation of that process. I'll second that. Any discussion on that? Let's see that you're- Okay. Honestly, I'm going back to the, when we signed on to the alternate governance proposal as a way to maintain some level of cohesiveness across, not cohesiveness, across the district. I wonder if there's positive or negative value in making that statement at this time. And I don't, I'm asking the question of the board. I don't actually have a good sense once in a while. It's a true observation because it's different to communicate in private individually as compared to making it. And this board has been solidly behind Act 46 all along. So, it's not going to come as a surprise to anyone. I can tell you, I usually try to be the most as a person in a worried house. And I had the most horrible experience last week as the fine. I did not even pass the fine. I was just sitting as the executive board member and I really got grass out of this they had. They wanted residents, not for me, it's more pillar. And my worry that the bill really is more about the part there that the question of whether we vote in delay or not delay, which means that we politicize education even more than we're doing it right now. So, we would be campaigning for whoever's on that board on pro or, you know, for or against Act 46. And that's not what we want. I have read a lot of testimonials from different people. John from the Gulfwood did a really great job. I said, he's going to do a resident as a superintendent and ask for experience and as the superintendent and that's for Barry too. But, so for the superintendent association for Barry's superintendent and for the resident. And I just feel, but that's just me. We have trust that threshold where it is harmful. Because it's not going to get any better. Older than the superintendent. What I'm hearing from them right now is not a willingness to talk and get more time for us to get the work done. That's so, it's not more time. Like, oh my God, I'm feeling really bad for board members that need more time or for our administrators that need more time. It's to try and stop it. So, and I don't have any paperwork to like, but it was traumatic, but it was pretty, you know, like basically what I was told is like, you know, screaming was that I was not going to be voted out of DSBA and never voted again on the school board. So it's not like. By somebody who's not in our community to vote for you. You what? Oh, but it's like unified. I'm not concerned, because it's not about me. I'm not concerned about that. But ultimately where is the, you know, it's the ugliness that's been going on. Exactly, so it keeps that division between our communities. We did such a good job, I feel like. We needed to have those conversations as long as they were for an alternative governance. We ended up understanding our commonalities and what else we needed to work on as a whole. We have the leadership team doing great work. So to continue this, despite at this point, we're ready to, all of our schools have a budget that, so it's really, that's just my personal feeling, that it doesn't, it doesn't help us to have a delay. We either gonna have 20 minutes, 20 meetings right now or extend them over a year. We're gonna have 100 meetings over a year. But do we want to communicate our stance as a board or do we want to communicate to the senators as we could do this? I think it's more powerful as a board than as individuals but it's a however everybody feels. I'm comfortable. I don't think it's been a secret how we feel as a board. I just wanted to ask the question of that. Yeah, my view is, I think we need to start feeling our relationships in the other communities and delaying for a year is not, it's going to cause more of a divide than, I think we'll have a short term increase in disagreements or in that we'll move forward versus having another year or three or four months to have sure we think over and over again. So I would, I'd be for presenting unified, so could you take action and get a motion on the table? So you did the motion and who second it? Actually second. That's good, I think I actually don't know. But yeah, all those in favor of the motion from Stephen, please say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Same, passes unanimously. Could I, I just have to back us up one minute. On the preparation for April 9th, we have to have like a town meeting that night. Because, and then on here it says a possible transition board meeting on that night. Yep. On your calendar. I know. Okay, so that would be hard for. I understand that, Lindy, it's going to be hard for Dodie as well. We need to post a warning basically that day for the election, so people have time to get their petitions in. Every day we wait is another day for people, though, that when you ask if people could get petitions that night, they may not give out petitions until the warning is posted. Okay, so our little town meeting, is that what time, 5.30? Could we make it 7? I'm not going to respond to that. Just because it is part of the climate that we're in right now, if it's not warned, I know they don't do that. There are people who will. There are people that will contest the petitions. I think we're faced with the reality over the next couple of months that there's a lot of work to be done and it's likely that we're going to have to divide our efforts to get everything done. Because the transition board. So there may have to be three people at the ninth presentation and two other people are at the transitional board. If you look at all those dates, you start pushing stuff back. I think what we do is we just have to say we can only have three of one and two at the other. If possible, stagger the times. But it's going to be a problem for all kinds of people. So you just have to figure it out. But we have a meeting where the... We didn't do some things. Yeah, it's like the town meeting. It's an immediate sure town meeting that we're doing overnight. We had some articles and things we didn't deal with at the real town meeting. People may not even show up. Nobody may show up. So if nobody shows up, what? You just... You have the voters that are here. You're all voters and you can take care of the articles. Okay. You remember just the articles. Yeah, I was here, yeah, all right. To hear and act upon the report of the town school directors. Shall the school district authorize the board of school directors to call any other fund balanced between 3F, so that's not a team in a reserve fund. And shall the school district authorize the board of school directors to borrow money. That's the most important. So that's what I think. It should be relatively short. Yeah. It should be. Okay. I think. I know what you're saying, Shade. Honestly. I have to transact any of your business. So it's just the standard. Okay. Yep. So as we get closer, we can figure out who goes where and how it's done. Because people already went to a town meeting. They're not thinking they have to go to another town meeting. No, I don't think. I don't think. So we're telling you that after six, reports to the board. So Alicia put her report in here. She's on the way. She's off to professional development with about four of her colleagues right now. Not from here, but fellow principals and Michelle Suff got down there to continue campus training in New York City. And so you'll see her report in here. One of the things that, so if you have any questions about that, I'd be glad to be related to her. But there's a lot of great work. I was just here this afternoon, things where kids and teachers should do some work around here. And I had to work with three or four boys, which was awesome. Last week, there's a group of literacy coordinators throughout the state that we've created kind of our own, this is in my work job. We created a group and we generally meet the Vermont NEA because they have a conference room. Well, it wasn't going to be available because we changed the date. And Kathy Christie said, I'll host it at the school. And we met here. So we had literacy coordinators from Stowe and Huntington, whatever that one is, Mount Mansfield Unified Union. There were probably five or six of us who met here. And what we all decided was meeting in a school made a lot more sense. We enjoyed it. Kathy gave a tour of the school. It was really good PR for the school to see. We went in every classroom, visited, saw all the beautiful resources. And I just, I thought I should share it with the board because it's not something you'd hear about. And yet it's good for people. And all of us decided that our next meeting, instead of being in a conference room, not around children, it'll be in a school and we're going to take turns in each other's schools. So it all was because the conference room wasn't available and the space was available here. So I appreciated it and it was really nice. We should touch on it. Responsive Classroom and PBIS. But I have to say the staff here is doing some phenomenal work and ensuring that. And I think the highlight for me, and I've been here a couple of mornings when it's happened, but when they've done the cross grade level groups that I'm working on already, you've got kindergarten, you're sitting on a sixth grade or two, you know, all grade levels. So, you know, there should be a real celebration of how strong that is and how strong that is in the school. Michael leads a lot of that, but it's just, it's working really well. And I see the kids really internal. That's just, I just have to put an extra stamp on it. Look at all the titles, they're going to stamp one. And it's an all whole staff effort. So it really is, it's a great piece of work and they've done it really well. But if you have any questions, I know all of you can contact me. The other things I would say is I gave you a draft of the recommended meeting schedule for April, May, and June that went out today. I said earlier, please let me know if there's anything there you think should be changed or are missing something, please ask. The next thing, one of the things that Laura and I met on today that I'm hoping to have by Wednesday, but I may not, but I'll definitely have it by the 27th, is a report on our progress to merge the district. There are certain things that need to be done before now as you know, we're kind of on a two track option. And there's things that need to be done literally in the next week to be able to make July 1st if there's a merger at that point. I mean, a good example is we already have our tax IDs, our federal IDs are registered with unemployment, the Labor Department, you know, where official name is registered with Secretary of State. So things like that all had to happen first, but now that we're gonna start occurring some expenses, which is we have to start building our financial system, electronic financial system, which we're gonna have to incur some costs from the software vendor to help us do it. We just don't have the personnel, staff, time, frankly, and they have to rebuild it. They have to spin up another database for us to keep track of the whole financial system. So that's, I'm gonna have notes of like two pages in this little binder of mine, but I need to get it on a written report for everyone of what some of those are and some key dates that we have to hit to be able to be ready July 1, and some of those costs. We'll get those all set for folks. Was that budgeted? No, because we need to know what the voters, how the voters want to approve that. It'll allow us to expend money or not. But is that part of the supervisory union? So here's the thing. We have found that while the supervisory union has given us authorization, if we're in a gray area, some voluntary mergers have done some from their prior districts. Some have said, hey, you gotta put everything towards the new district. There isn't a clear cut guidance on this and there isn't clear cut statute on this. It's suggested that it all goes towards the new entity and that's why that's one of the articles in the district organizational meeting is to allow expenses to be incurred and paid so we borrow some money to be able to do that and have that approved. And so all the legal bills as the executive committee approved earlier were approved to come out of the SU budget. But there are some questions about that. It's not clear, but I can't say, hey, it's gotta be this or it's gotta be that. But you have the resources you need. Yeah, we're fine with it. We can figure out what we need. I mean, that's why the conversations with the executive committee next week, if we have time, we don't have an hour meeting, so. This one's safe. This one's safe, sorry, this one's safe, thank you. The June 25th vote, if I'm looking at yours. Yeah, yep, yep. That would be an Australian ballot. Well, it depends on what the district organization means besides on April 8th. We'll be back in a second. But the I'll make one. How things are looking. What's in the wind? What's in the wind, yeah. The way for what? For people, last time we heard people were planning to stop the meeting or to do things like that. If anyone's heard anything, I haven't yet. But yeah, hopefully, you know, that age 39 would be up with the United States, not the United States, some cleared items. That would include some consequences, not consequences, but pretty much says you have to have that kind of special meeting or to have a good life. We have the full board meeting next Wednesday, right? Yes. So that might help bring stuff out of the woodwork. Yep. Besides that, I mean, I talked about it, he's not better, but all the schools are going, there's a lot of good stuff. Get into a school, you don't get to see it. They're good schools. Yeah. And hopefully you saw someone came home, some of, we got to put up online, but there was a four pager that went out and now went through a poem through the elementary schools about Washington Central celebrating some good stuff that's going on in all the schools. It was in the, you saw a Breivier version in the Times Argus, was it the seventh or the sixth? It's one of those days. Steve Pappas has been partnering with Montpelier, Washington Central, Barry, and Central Vermont to have to vote a page a week to work from the schools. And kids were not administrative, not teacher, what are the kids doing? And so it's been a great partnership. We've only, I think there's only been three runs so far, but Steve had a good idea with that. Any more for an administration? I think it's physical. I didn't notice in Alicia's report that they, I wasn't sure if it was hopeful or that a long-term special educator? We're working on it. It's hopeful. It's not concrete. It's such a short edge that I was worried. Yeah, we're in a bit of a quandary right now because of licensing standards and what we need to have because it's a more than 30 days, so we have to have an endorsement. Right. That's not easy. Nope. So that's been quite, we've had two versions we thought were going to work and this school, nothing's changed since the last time you saw it in February. So that's the same, it's basically the same report. You guys are in great shape. You're over a 4% threshold and I think in May, most likely our June, we'll be talking about moving funds to the capital reserves. Second meeting. Yeah. We'll be a second meeting at the last meeting. We spent most of our time just doing the getting ready for the organization meeting. I don't know if you guys have a chance to look at the minutes if you have any questions. But after you say it's a sort of, do you have anything else you want to make? Nope. We're going to be briefly for an hour because that's about how we can squeeze it in. How we can use it all over in the long run. Our last meeting, we met for like 10, 15 minutes. 10, 15 minutes. We're meeting now who we did some We need more hours of work. So I don't, sorry, I don't watch your work on this. Yeah. Did the makeup of the executive committee change? It will. Furlin doesn't have a nominee right now since they were without a quorum. Mm-hmm. At, so far at Dodie and Rumney, that Chris McVeigh is still on from Rumney and Matthew Gutton from Dodie. U32 will be assigning to Murramey. Okay. And Callis is still outdoor at the agency because they're in between. We've done this before. The executive committee has met before everyone's done. Reorganized. Reorganized. So we work this way, we work with the folks that are in the chairs and they're still there. And I think it, from the emails, it was like I was being with the folks that we came in. Yeah, there it has been now. Yeah. There has not been a policy meeting. Hasn't that been a policy meeting? Okay. So glad you're coming in. We haven't had a supply meeting. We've been called to hopefully get some more of the kids' work. So, the initiations? Add negotiations and be careful what they're saying. We have a temporary agreement, just like you said, the last carousel meeting. We have a temporary agreement for really close. Hopefully, we'll have something to you remain at least a quorum on the 27th. So, you might be able to start to get some clarification. And we're starting to get SP negotiations for exchanging lists of issues tomorrow. So, you said on the 27th? On the 27th, we have our carousel. I might quickly ask everybody, I'm waiting to hear from the association. As I do, as of Friday, we had one little tweak. It was like just replace a word and we were agreement on it. So, I just haven't received the email, go let's go for ratification, if that's the case. I'm gonna ask for what boards can have a quorum. We have a quick meeting just to adopt the deger agreement. Good meeting outside of the... Carousel. We need to do it. Oh, we don't have our own individual meetings? No, it's just an SSU meeting. But if we can do it quickly. I think I'll have it. But they usually are, but people have had that much. We tried it one year to have reorganization and as a carousel march, it just didn't work. Yeah, I agree. So, we'll do more on that. Well, we are gonna have kids there on the 27th. Action agenda, you did the one action that we had. Do you have anything else to add? Just the board orders that you've signed on the time. So, if we send it to one, and have a motion to approve the board order? I'll make a motion to approve the board order. There's two of them, one in the amount of $24,738.95. And the other one is $31,163.82. Is that all you need? One second. Okay, thank you. Steve, we're out. You can do it. Okay. Future agenda items. You need to vote. Do we have to vote, ma'am? Oh, sorry, sorry, yeah. All those in favor of moving the board orders? As far as we can say aye. Aye. Opposed? Future agenda items. I don't think we had a time for a new future agenda item. No, no. So, our next meeting is April 27th. So, I took a little bit of liberty. Mark. You would have had, your meeting would have been April 15th, would have been the third, but it's vacation, and this board has always moved it. So, if you don't have any objection on the schedule, I moved it to the 22nd. No. I'm going to be out of town. Come to 27th. I'm going to be out of town. That's the Monday coming back, right? It's the Monday coming back. I just want to check, because for both East Montevay and Calisthen, I'll be asking Calisthen. So that, yeah, that's it. April 22nd. Yep. 25th, and then that's the poisoning application. I'm going to be going literally right by his house. I knew it. Okay, so that's fine. Everybody who was pregnant.
