 Three of the Cali's are fourth members. Okay, there are no reports as the principles are on duty. So I guess we'll move on to the consent agenda. There are a motion to approve or any questions? No approved. I second. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried. All right, first item under old and new business is the Paxco Middle School. And I moved to go into executive session to discuss Paxco Middle School pursuant to the exception for the data relating to financial affairs or trade secrets and corporations, partnerships, trust, and individual proprietors ships under coma. And the open meeting will resume in the boardroom at 10 minutes. How many months do you want, Steve? I don't know. It's fine, we're not going. I don't know. Okay, we'll go for 15 minutes to resume back here at 6.18. Is there a second? All those opposed, say aye. Motion carried. So are you going to take Cali with us or are they going to be staying here? Yeah. Okay. That's good. Let's see, moving on to action item number two, Maple Hill Elementary's KSBE Apollo 39. The board officially earlier had accepted the middle, or the Maple Hill Elementary to be involved in the program. And just the fact that now they're approved for launch, they needed to know by June 1, I let them know. And then the board officially has to have it in their minutes that they send the KSBE that it was approved, that they are part of the KSBE Apollo redesign. I so do. Is there a second? Been moved and seconded. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried. Thank you. You guys are welcome to stick around if you want, if you don't want anybody that wanted to peace out, it's welcome to, it doesn't matter. Okay. Next item is Bond. John and Tony met with the Elma City Commission, our city council. And so, if you wanted to do a little report on that, that'd be great. We met with them and talked about things we possibly may use, like objections or if there were anything involved that would put an end to the process. And it climbs up. Thanks for taking the time to do that. And Tony too. Okay. And so the next step then would be for, if you would like to meet with staff to get input as well. Okay. Prior to having something go out public in July. And then this is what we're moving forward with and having the resolution in July. The latest you can have it as an August, but Tora may want to check that just to make sure on the, the resolution. Yeah, on the Bond calendar. But if you did it in July after getting input from staff and had the resolution, you've got to have so many days in advance for a November election. So. What do you, how do you foresee that, that working here in the month of, between June and July, how do you foresee that working for you and staff? You can put an email out and ask, here's the two options we're looking at. Because you don't want to give them necessarily any more than these, I believe. And what do you see good, bad and different share it with us and or have representatives from each of the buildings ask them to come in and meet. You have those kind of choices. Is it a possibility to have, I mean like Dawn and Tony went and met with the city. Could we have a couple of board members have an open house with them some day that they would choose. You can leave it. I was thinking you was going to make the other one. But anyway, would it be fair enough to have a, send them all an email and say, hey, we could have an open house XYZ date and time that we could meet here or whatever building it doesn't matter. And then you could have Maria here with HDK, VHS, Chain or Paul and or both. And they can say, hey, this is where we're thinking. What do you guys think of those, those kind of things. Because I think that again, the things that we heard last time was didn't talk to the city prior to and staff didn't have input prior to. That's fine. I will volunteer my time to do that. I'll do that. Okay. So when's our next board meeting then is July 11th. Any day next week other than Friday and a week after that except for Monday is the fourth. Okay. Do you want to send that out as options? What days? So the week of June 27th through the 30th or July 5th through the 8th. Do you care what time of day? Maybe they do that. I couldn't do 10 o'clock probably. Okay. What's the date? Right. So afternoons. Okay. Call me. It might be good to give them an extra week's notice. Unfortunately, I just don't believe we have the time because if we try and sandwich this into three days, I believe you better give the teachers the option and the HTK and BHS are just going to have to conform. We're hiring them to do our services and I appreciate what they do, but they need to show up. The teachers need to have the say on when they want to be here. So give them the options. If it happens so and then give them the extra week, then great, if it doesn't, then... No, pick. Yes. There's two weeks of time there for them to pick a day. Okay, I got it. Yes. Yep. The afternoon... In the afternoon of any of those days, they tell us and... Jerome and I... If it's at noon or one or two, I don't know. Any time noon or after throughout the day, Jerome and I are available. And Callie, you said you would like to be there as well. I'll be there. Any other feedback around that? Hearing none, then I guess we can move on. Next is the Practico Middle School Modulars. Would recommend we move forward. Periodic Compton School District will pay $7,500 for the two modulars. This costs them around $18,000 a piece to move them, but that's all on them. And they are more than willing and wanting those modulars right away. Do we have a deadline as to when? I mean, have them picked up or paid for? No. We sent them an invoice for $7,500. Okay. And so they're aware and ready to go and they're lining up the movers and stuff. I'm going to pick them up. I said, don't say anything. All those in favor or oppose, say aye. Okay. Motion carried. Budget transfers. The closeout and the budget transfers will be in July. And those amounts will be then approved for statute. If you've changed the transfer amounts, then you need to change and have the board approve those transfers. So in July, that's what we did last year too. There was a list. So for capital outlay, for instance, for special education or vocational funding, those have changed. And we want to make sure to ensure that the general fund, LLB, both of those are zeroed out. And so Michelle and office staff is meeting tomorrow, actually, with Butch, who helped us in the previous years. And with when Cheryl was the board clerk to ensure moving forward with those budget amounts to close out and move forward. But those need to be approved. Correct. Yeah, in July. In July. Yeah. Okay. An action item. Yes. Okay. Any discussion around the budget or transfer for July? And one thing I would point out too about the budget. We just got confirmation this past week, Friday, I believe, that our SR3 funds are approved. So that's $421,000 of funds. That's all in personnel. And we've been very transparent about $500 stipends for those all employees. And the planned 3% raise is included in that. So it doesn't have to be within your budget. Those are included in that for the next three years, a third year of it, you're going to run short of the 3%. But the other thing that we do is you have to have 20% to specific areas. And the specific areas that we use the 20% for is for the counselor, elementary counselor position. And also for the, there is money in there for the social emotional grant, for the SRO grant. We have a COPS grant that we're with the county. So those type of things. And there's also money included. Let's say what teachers asked for, they asked for a math interventionist in the elementary level at which we've not been able to hire. But much like what Stephanie Tharmon is with reading recovery, with the reading portion, having a math person and a math interventionist is included in that. You can change that. It doesn't have to be exactly that. If you can't fill the position, you can spend it in other ways. But it does include those things that are quote, direct related to COVID in regards to social emotional with the grants that we have with, like I said, SRO, MHRT, the mental health grant and or the funding of the elementary counselor position. So you came to fill the interventionist position. I have not been able to at this point. Thank you. Cal, do you have any questions or comments on that budget? Nope, that sounds good. Thank you. Okay, then moving on. Next is prime vendor food, bed and milk. Sharman is here. Sharman is taking Janice's position for treasure. She's also the COVID coordinator, which by the way, we're going to talk about a little bit after that about that and that being able to pay her portion of her salary for the district. So, but she's gotten this for everybody to see on food bids and milk. And I reached out to five vendors. U.S. food sent a letter declining. SGC food, they never responded. Highland dairy, they put in a bid for milk for 20,000, 243 and 93 cents. If you'll notice their services over there, they provide all the coolers for all the school schools. They rotate the product, they put away the product and anything that runs out of date, they exchange it. So their bid is a little higher than the milk bid for EFCO, but EFCO does not provide any coolers. They do not put away the product. So there's, you know, a chance staff could get injured or something like that. So the difference there that you see with Highland dairy, their services are far and above what EFCO would provide. I know last year they went with EFCO or the year before and they fell through on a lot of product. They left us standing with nothing as you can, or Cisco did, sorry. EFCO is the one that we would like to go with, but Cisco is the one that left us standing a lot. So, and you can see they're clearly a lot more expensive. So we would like to go with EFCO for the food and Highland dairy for the milk. And Deb Westhoff's aware of this too, right? Yes. Those were her recommendations as well. I second. Been moved and seconded to approve the EFCO bid for food and Highland dairy for milk. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried. All right, next we're moving on to the propane bid. We have three bids that were opened. If you choose to go locally, it's three cents a gallon more through Animal Co-op rather than a little bit of above 70. But that's a choice that we would like to keep it local in the Animal Co-op that Co-op did last year. Co-op, Co-op. Co-op was a bad bid. Yeah, it was. I so moved to approve Animal Co-op as our propane supplier. It's been moved and seconded to use Animal Co-op as our propane supplier. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried. Moving on, a continuation of the KDHE testing grant. Charmant's here again. And with that too, the information before we get into that, I just want to make sure everybody understands by continuing this, it's test to know it isn't going to be the same as what we had initially started it and she's talked, she's being Charmant. Let's talk to KDHE and talked about those particulars. They've also been very good Charmant in contacting them to talk about, hey, this is what we're going to spend the money for. Are you okay with these things? And they have agreed all the way through as far as with the KDHE. So again, anything that comes down, it's still a local decision. The board can make a decision on how they want to handle and the whole coordination of this program. But Charmant, if you wanted to go ahead and talk to everybody. Well, we all know last year was definitely a trial and error type situation for sure everything, but at the end of the year I think we had it pinpointed and running smoothly. No contact tracing. People can come in here and test to know and we do have a good fair amount that continue to come in to test to know. They really like that we have the PCR machine. I did PCR tests for students that had to have those tests to compete in other things. That way they could come in here, do it free of charge. I had it formed within 30 minutes. They didn't have to go to a doctor, same as staff. It was very useful, the PCR machine. We currently have about $8,511 left. Some of the funds we used for that was to get a computer monitors and all the accessories that we need in the district office very badly. So all of that was paid for. I had approval to get new furniture, all this cloth furniture. You should see schools, cloth is out the door. It's very, very... So some of the funds, we could get some new chairs in here. We need to get testing in here. As Brad said, it can pay the majority of my wages. And I can be the treasurer as well. That's a big plus. Cleaning supplies. Me and Janice are ordering cleaning supplies for all the schools that they have on hand and that'll cut back on what we have to pay for the janitorial. It's limitless. That's what I'm going to use the funds for. They said anywhere from purchasing a modular to just a couple boxes of gloves. So anything in between. Do you have any questions? You might need a couple. Please test around 2,100 students and staff. Yes, over 2,000 students and staff. But by the end of the year I think we had the program the way the district wanted it. So no contact tracing. People came in to test to know. I saw a lot of kids coming in worried about their grandparents. It really started making them think, hey, it's not just me or just the people at the school. They were thinking about the elderly and their family. And they would come in and test to know. They were negative and then they could go ahead and do whatever family functions were doing. So that's just one of the things I see. Thank you. It is. So is there a motion to continue the KDHE testing grant? Kelly moves. Is there a second? Kelly and Callie seconded. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried. All right. Workman's comp insurance. Coatman's insurance that we've had before with our workman's comp premiums going down from $12,060 to $11,500. Recommend. I second. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried to approve Coatman insurance for our work comp. Property casualty insurance. Unfortunately, there is an increase. We, last year, we saw, we're going to see a significant increase. And we have gotten that down. But this year across the board, this is a part of a group of school districts. And their situation too is the fact that now we've got all our buildings that are insured to their replacement cost. And that's part of the reason of the cost increase as well as storms. Any questions about property casualty insurance? I'm sure we got into that pretty extensively, I believe. That would be somewhere around $78,000. I think last year it was $60,000. Right. I mean, so that's a 20% increase too. But we need that math instructor. Jump in. Tell us. That interventionist. That would be of the interventionist. X times 1.19 equals... That's the answer. That's the answer. Well, you wouldn't have to use this to pay that. And it's always the bottom line, right? Move to approve. I second. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried to approve KERMP, right? KERMP as our casualty insurance. Okay, moving on to the Apple iPad Master lease. Josh did a great job with the iPad working through the lease with it. This year the cost would be $50,000. K-12, $50,000, $313,000 annually for four years. It includes a difference. Last years before we didn't have cases. That was an extra. So it includes Apple cases which are fitted to them and should help us with that. Plus Apple care. So what happened, if you remember, instead of buying insurance, it was cheaper for us to go out on our own and just take the money in the tech funds, keep it in the bank, and then any time we had broken screens, what would we have? Around 100 screens. Then take it up to the place in Lamingo. Manhattan. Manhattan, our name and place. Mobile Revive. Mobile Revive, and it's about 100 bucks a piece. Right now it's about 140 minimum. Okay, so 140 times 100 machines and we're getting it now for the Apple Care portion of it to be able to take care of it. So they'll send out my new iPad, is that correct? Versus trying to repair and trying to get them back and forth in all those sense. Initially the first year we did it would pay almost 62,000 for four years or three years actually and traded them in. And then that's why I went down to 48. So it's been the past four years, it's been 48, nine, so it's a little more than that, but we didn't get cases and we didn't get the Apple Care. So that's a huge thing. Huge difference. It's what you want, right? Mm-hmm. I moved to a group. Dawn seconded. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried. Thank you for putting that together. Next is the board trains at Passion here right now. Did we get the bids on that? That bid, did we get a bid? We did. We found a used one and so they've gotten the bid last week and so our situation is they have no idea when they're going to get the one and bid for $34,000. No idea. So we found another one on the lot and it is available and immediately able to go and so they're getting the bid now. What that is. And then we would just continue with that $34,000 bid. I mean that's really cheap. And we, if it... This one's bid. Yeah, and this $34,000 bid in the future, you've still got it on record and you haven't encumbered it and so then you can just move it forward with that bid and then when you do encumber it you guys can choose to say, okay, we want to go ahead and get it or not and move forward. So I would have recommended then that way you know for sure you've got another one coming at some point. At a very valuable, at a very reasonable price. Yeah. And... Is that the one? Yeah. Okay, the one that we got from Mail Hamilton Ford for a 5,981 miles it's a... Didn't say what the year is. Yeah, it's a 2020 Ford Transit and the bid is $61,875 and it is on the lot and that's the cost to be delivered. You said $5,000 or $9,000? Yeah, almost $6,000. So we know we've got it. We need the vehicles. And with the situation with capital outlay we do have money as far as capital outlay to be able to pay it because if you remember from our budget previously we said we aren't going to spend all this amount but we have the authority to spend it and so we're still below that amount. So... And if you look at it this way you're going to get two vehicles for $95,000 because you got the one for $34,000 and you got this one for $61,000 so somewhere around $42.5 a piece if you look at it that way for two vehicles. And I've got a sign that this is what the bid was and it's a state contract. We've not seen anything. But... Yeah. It's a situation where we really need a vehicle. We're not going to be one next year. It's not like we can wait five months to make it. It's the way they don't. Are you swallowing the suburb under something? Correct. Just hard to swallow. It's almost double. Is your own move to approve? Sorry, I'm a bit uncomfortable. Is there a second? Kelly second. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried. You can't move to get your motion. Thank you. Yes. Yeah, I think that's a tough work, but... Yeah. Okay. Moving down to personnel. Is there a need for a... Nope. Okay. Okay. So moving on to approve employment. I move to approve employment as submitted, which is the District Rehider list of Transportation Director Clint Thompson, Board of Education Clerk Resources Michelle Garrett, Board of Education Treasurer and COVID Coordinator Sharman Miller, Food Service Director Debbie Westoff, and Maintenance Director Gary Blanton, Technology Director Josh Nisley, Library Media Tech Rehire List Coaches Rehire List as submitted Cooks Rehire List as submitted Building Secretaries Rehire List as submitted Alma Elementary, Maple Hill Principal Robert Chavo Okay. Counselor... The High School English Teacher Sierra Page and Maple Hill Secretary Lanny Page. That needs to come off. The Secretary? Yes. I'm sorry. Okay. As submitted. Which is there a second? Dawn seconded. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried. Okay, next I move to accept the Resignations and Retirement of Board of Education Treasurer Janice Chamberlain Effective July 29th. The High School Counselor Kevin Sullivan and the Alma Elementary and Maple Hill Elementary Principal Dr. Kephart and approve the transfer of duties of Alma Elementary Secretary Aaron Sutherland to Board of Education Clerk and Board of Education Clerk Michelle Garrett to AES Secretary. Oh, yeah. So it's been moved. Is there a second? Cali seconded. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried. Welcome to the group. Thank you very much. I'd also like to send my sincere thanks to Mrs. Chamberlain for everything she's done for us in the district. Yes, for sure. Change is inevitable, but we've gone through enough, so stick with us through the next page, right? Yup. Okay. Board members, you reminded me of your reimbursement, the policy BBE, so if you have knowledge to turn in, please have that done so we can have it on this year's budget and take it care of. Much appreciated. And just FYI, at Maple Hill, or excuse me, Pack School Middle School, the purple wave auction amount was $4,692.50 for the surplus items that we have online. What was that? The $6,500? Yeah. For the surplus items. Good. And the high seller, Charmin Wright, was the Ipads? The Max. Yeah, over $2,000 brought with the Max. Those old ones. Baffled to you. Okay. And this was your last board meeting. It is. Well, have fun in retirement. I am. And will. Thank you for everything, by the way. I do sincerely mean it and publicly I don't want to state my sincere thanks. Seven years was a pleasure to work with you all. Kelly Angon, actually. And Jerome, were you on initially at the seven-year period? Yes. And so thank you very much for everything you've done for me. It was a great honor. And hopefully we did some good things and hopefully some things that will continue to do well for the district. But I appreciate everyone's work because I know it's a lot of times it's a sense of service, but it's so important, especially locally that you all are willing to serve and you guys are willing to do that. And so much appreciated for your service. And thanks again for your friendships. It means a lot. Don, you having anything? Kiddie or anything? Kiddie. I don't have anything additional to bring up other than thank you for your service. You bet. Appreciate it. And thank you, Michelle, for sticking with us for a long while. You'll still be here. Kelly? Thank you, Brad. One of the things I would just like for us as a board to think about last month, we approved a program that created some controversy and it seemed that many of our teachers and others didn't know about it. But we were what it was about prior to the board's agreement. So it's just like for us as a board to think about I don't know if it needs to be a policy or something for us to consider either implement different programs or curriculums or things like that. It's to make sure that we're getting that input prior to coming to the board. So it could be something where if we have a new program that we want to implement that is at least reviewed by the teachers association, it doesn't have to come with a recommendation from them but I feel like that is important for our teachers to know about the curriculum. I know about a program here to consider it's just something that I think would be helpful. We spent many months I know on later in the prior to the board actually implemented and I think that if it's an important program it should have that input. August 1st, that it unofficially tonight he's eager. Callie. I didn't see her there. I wonder why you weren't here. Callie, do you have any additional comments? I just want to say thank you to Brad so we're meeting but I hope you enjoy it. Thank you so much for your time and Janice obviously I'd like to say thank you for being amazing and Michelle it's been quite glad you're staying in the district so I think that's it. Sounds good. I have nothing further to add. I'm not really sure. Alright I'll take a motion to adjourn. Okay? It's been moved and seconded. All those opposed, please say aye. Motion carried. The meeting is adjourned. Thank you all. Thank you.
